Internal Machines.

NEW YORK, April 30.-Early this morn
ing John NJ. Davenport, 3l9 East Nineteenth
street, visited Police Headquarters, carrying
with him an internal machine similar TO
those sent William ii. Vanderbilt and Cyrus
w. Field yesterday. evidently prepared by
the same person. 1t had been placed in
the hallway of Davenport's house last night,
and exploded at 10 O'Clock, setting fire to
the dOor-mat, but doing no other damage.
The intention, evidently, was to set fire 10
the house. The machine was a cigar box
bound with wire, and contained cotton.
which was set on fire by the explosion, the
powder being ignited by a fuse. There was
just sufficient powder to shatter the box and
ignite the cotton. Davenport heard the ex
plosiOn, and found his door-mat in a blaze.
The box was probably intended for Superin-
tendent Walling the letter Nv" beng

Postmaster Pearson has no clue TO the
sepders of explosive packages to Vanderbilt
and Field. He will examine the Collectors
TO morrow. The little glass globe of flpid
taken out of the machine intended for Van
derbilt was sent to Professor Ogden Dore-
mus, who declared the fluid to be sulphuric
acid which, if brought in contact with gun
powder and chlorate of potash even in small
quantities will cause il to explode.

A Six voar Ola Child RAPED.

LOUISVILLE, April 3O.-Curtis Neal, q
negro fifteen years old, was arrested this
morning for committing a rape on a SIX
year-old white child, daughter of Mrs. Chas.
Voght, who lives out on Shelby street, near
its terminus. The deed was committed
Saturday night. The negro had been around
the house good deal, and did some work
there, always being very kind TO the child
aud thus getting her confidence. Saturday
night Mr.. VOght was away, and no one at
the house bat his wife and
her little daughter. The child was playing
out in the back yard, when the negro
boy observed her and walked around 10
where she WAS There was a small shed in
the back of the yard and he managed to
coax the child into il, closing the door after
him. At this she became alarmed ana tried
10 escape, when the brute seized her by the
arm and threatened to kill her if she made
any noise. She, however, began to cry at
the topof her voice, but De caught her by
the throat and throwing her upon the floor
violated her person. The little girl is in a
very dangerous condition, and it is feared
that serious results will follow. The COM
10 munity is terribly excited.
Another case has just come to light in
which Miss Anna Ralph, aged twenty two,
residing on Brook neac Breckenridge, is the
victim. She had just got home from the
circus last night. Her company had left her
at the gate. and was not half square away,
when a negro named Berge, whom she
knew, came up and spoke. After a few
words the negro seized the woman by the
throat, threw her to the ground and succeed
ed in his hellish purpose. Berge is in jail
