The officers of the Ohio No. A deny
the particulars of the collision of that
boat with the Andes, as contained in
dispatches from Catlettsburg. Mr.. Yves.
Corns, who was at the wheel of the Ohio
at the time, claims to have repeatedly
sounded two whistles for the side want
ed, as boats coming down stream have a
right to do, but they were disregarded
by the pilot Of the Andes, Mr.. George
ONeil, who insisted on having the same
side. To gain her point, it is alleged,
the Andes came up with full head of
steam, as otherwise she could not have
made the landing. The damage sus-
tanned by the Ohio was some broken
stationary tenders, and the wharf boat
at Catlettsburg had its cargo box de-
molished

GAS EXPLOSION.
A Young Earthquake ON Main
street.

At twelve clock to-day a tremendous
explosion, near the Peabody Hotel
startled the dwellers in the vicinity and
the pedestrians on Main street for sew
eral squares Rushing toward the Pea
body the excited people discovered a
chasm in front OF the clothing store Of
Johnston & Vance, 305 Main street,
under the Peabody Hotel. The iron
grating, FIVE feet wide and thirty feet in
length, was thrown into the air and
dropped into the cellar.
At the time of the earthquake Messrs.
Alonzo Greenlaw and Ben Powell were
standing ON the grating, conversing
with Mr.. John f. Mckinney, who stood
in the doorway. Mr.. Mckinney was
thrown back into the store, while Messrs.
Greenlaw and Powell disappeared into
the gulf with the heavy grating. These
gentlemen, having become familiar with
mines and explosions of all kinds
during the war, were taken out unhurt.
Three large panes of French glass in
the show windows Of Johnston Il Vance
were shattered to pieces.
GAS AS A MOTIVE POWER.
The cause of the explosion was the
ignition of quantity of gas that had
escaped into the cellar, which latter be-
came an immense and dangerous gaso-
meter The cause of this escape was
produced by the workmen of the Gayoso
Gas Company, who were at the time
changing gas from the old to the new
company's pipes, in the cellar of Fran
cisco & Virgins, hatters, at 3O7, adj
joining the store of Johnston & Vance.
The outlets were not closed; hence the
gas rushed in large volume out of the
pipe into the cellar. Mr.. Phil NAL
lon, we'll known plumber and gas
filter, was at the scene of the explosion
in few seconds. He leaped into the
cellar and threw some boxes up that
were on fire. He ordered one of the
gas men to put his hand on the end
of the pipe, in order to stop the escape
of gas, and ordered the other to 90 and
shut off the supply. The men we're
frightened, and could not comprehend
the orders for some time, but at last the
supply was shut off and all further dan
ger removed. Inattention to business
and carelessness on the part of the
workmen was no doubt the cause of the
accident. The explosion was heard sew
eral squares, and it was almost miracu-
lous that no greater damage was pro-
duced. As to the explosive qualities of
the rival coal and naptha gases we have
nothing to do but simply to state that
this particular accident was caused by
the explosion of the coal gas Of the
Gayoso Gas Company. On examina-
lion, the pipes of the Memphis Gas
Light Company which supply the store
Of Johnston & Vance, were discovered |
10 be intact and the meters all right.
The damage amounts to about one hun
ired and fifty dollars.

THE question Of interest and usury
will again command the attention OF the
Legislature of the State, and should be
handled in more intelligent and satisiac.
tory manner than at its last session. While
we are in favor of low rate of interest, and
would be glad to see money, valued as a
C mmodity, as cheap in Virginia as in Eng
land or Germany, we cannot ignore the
fact that our own rates Of interest cannot
be kept down by local legislation, but must
be made to conform to those of the great
money centers around us. One great rea-
son why the rate Of money is so much
h her in this country than in the chef
commercial centers of Europe, is that indi-
vidual enterprise and energy is better paid
among us, and command higher premium
upon success. A man who can turn over
one thousand dollars Of borrowed money
to-day and make it two thousand to-mor-
row, is justified in borrowing at high rates;
and it is this individual enterprise and en-.
ergy, and not the power of capital, which
commands the premium.
Viewed in this light, it will not be diff
cult for the legislation of the State to ad.
just itself to the necessities and demands Of
o people in respect to interest and usury
sl-called.

DEMOCRATIC ELEo ORAL yor u.

Mr.. Augustus Schell, Chairman Of the
Nltional Democratic Committee, has issued
circular letter, in effect, addressed to the
Democratic Electors in the several States,
saying that the Committee do not regard it
within the scope Of their authority to adj
wise such electors as to the course they
should pursue in view Of the death of Mr..
Greeley, since such an event was unpro-
vided for by the action Of the Baltimore
Convention. The Tribune, very appropriately
fronit own standpoint, suggests ana recon-
;nends that tho Democratic and Liberal
electors cast their votes for President
Grant, and thus make his election like tina,
Of Mr.. Monroe for his second term, unani-
nous. But the Ford, in our judgment,
makes more sensible recommendation,
which is, that the electors vote blank for
President, while they cast their ballots for
Vice. President, as in honor bound, for
the candidate nominated at Baltimore. This
would show the election of General Grant
to be without opposition, while the vote
would be cue of marked and most signiii-
cant respect for the memory of the deceased
candidate. The electors could not, OF
course, vote for dead man, but they
could evince tho highest respect for the
dead by voting in the manner suggested.
