AlfOTIIEB APPALLING CALAISITT
The month opene4 with the de
struction of a noble steamer and the
loss of five hnndred and fiftjr lives.
Then came hurricanes and freshets
and forest fires in rapid so ccessiont
In the dispatches we m printed yester
day was a brief statement that the
city of San Salvador, capital of the
little Republic of that name in Cen
tral America, was destroyed by an
earthquake, involving a loss of eight
hundred lives and twelve millions
dollars of property.
This is a story of starkest horror
and curdles the blood in the reading.
Eight hundred souls swept from the
earth in a moment 1 Not long since
a great earthquake overthrew the an
cient city oi nuoco, wuicu, u. our
memory serves us, was tne most
frightful casualty of the kind since I
the destruction of Caracas in 1812.
Life in the tropical countries seems
to be subjected to innumerable perils
earthquakes, volcanoes, simoons,
fevers, cholera, plagues and a myriad
others.

An Exciting Bnnawar.aat Narrow
a. very exciong , runaway occurred on
Princess street yesterday afternoon, about
5 o'clock, which came near resulting in
serious consequences. A horse attached to
a buggy, driven by a colored man by the
name of Win. H. Howe, foreman of the
"Brooklyn". fire company, was approach
ing Princess street on Third. Just before
reaching the corner, Howe's hat blew off
and he dismounted to recover it. Upon re
gaining his seat and taking the reins the
animal suddenly darted off at a furious rate,
running across the sidewalk at the corner
and taking his course down Princess street
He had run but a short dstance, however,
when the buggy, was ovarturned and the J
jj .i " - I
driver thrown Out
In front of the office of E. S. Woodford,
Esq., opposits-the Court House, a little son
of that gentleman was sitting on the end of
a prop affixed to the lamp post at that point
The speed of the horse improved after the
driver had been thrown out and he ran up
close' to the sidewalk, the wheel of the
buggy striking the prop upon which the
little boy was sitting with such force
that the position of . the -buggy, which
was on one side, was completely re
versed and . the shock of the collis
ion of the . wheels of the vehicle with
the prop threw the boy upon the upper
most part of the buggy. In this position
he remained until Abe horse had ran about
twenty-five or thirty yards, when the
buggy was turned bottom upwards, throw
ing the little fellow off, one wheel passing7
over his leg. - The horse continued his
course as far as Mr. S. P.. Currie's livery
stables, where he was halted in .his mad ca
reer, the buggy being considerably dam
aged. . .The little boy, who . had . almost
miraculously escaped instant death, jumped
upon his feet and . was quickly surrounded
by a sympathizing crowd. Captain
"Woodford, arrived, on the spot in
a few moments, when the little fellow was
taken to a physician, who, we ' are glad to
learn, is of opinion that his injuries' are not
serious. His escape from death, or at least
from permanent injury, . is, under all the
circumstances of the case, the most remark-1
able one we have ever known. The prop i
upon which he was sitting, though firmly I

We are glad to know that Mr. John JS. I
Lippitt made contracts some time since for I
a supply of ice for the entire year. But for
this prudential step we have every reason I
td believe that there would have been a I
marked advance, in. price during the ap-1
proaching summer, as the ice companies
North are said to be forming a combination
that will result in an increase of price, ice I
is not merelv a luxury.', but a necessity, in 1
this latitude and anything that tends to
lessen the consumption is always to be re
gretted. At present prices, even the poorer
classes of our people are enabled to use it
Tbe Opera House a a Ball Room
It has been suggested that now the theatri
cal season has about closed it would be a
good idea for the lessee of the Opera House
to place his movable floor in position so that
balls can be held there. By the way, we
learn that he has expressed some intention
of doing so, and that in such case he would
reduce the price somewhat ..There is cer
tainly need for a good ball room, and by
means of the movable floor the Opera House
can be' made into an excellent one, as has
already been sufficiently demonstrated.
