A thousand Persons Paralysed by a SSn
gle Stroke—Fu» IhstakUy'l&Bed—A
Ghastly Spectacle Unde re Circus Tent.
■ Kingston, N. Y., Aug. 26— At noon
yesterday the smoke that had for a
.week oovered the river lifted, and bom
all part? Os the. horiaon dark, murky
clouds rolled i*L M night drew nigh
the flashes of lightning and the deep
3&Bl&%silSfe
clould hung over the river, and the.
lightning flushed incessantly. Despite
the warnings of the approaching storm,
hundreds upon hundreds of men, wo
men and children thronged Union av
enue on their way to a circus tent, and
at the beginning of the performance
there could not have been less than
fifteen hundred beings under the can
opy. This was just before Bp. m., and
luge drops of rain had already begun
to patter upon the canvas, while the
thunder without almost drowned the
voice of the ringmaster within. A
short distance bom. the main tent waa
a smaller tent, used as a bait stand,
and a few feet bom this stand stood a
willow tree in the corner of the yard
of an adjoining dwelling. On the cor
ner of the dreus ground, under and
near the tree, were grouped a large
number of persons who had taken
shelter bom the storm. Under the
fruit tent were also congregated about
twenty-five persons, w&ile hitched to
the tree was a horse with a wagon. A
colored man was seated in the wagon.
Mirth and jollity prevailed about
this group, one colored man yelling
out at times, “Save yer money: 111
gib yer a Bhow before morning.’’ Sud
denly
ONE BLINDING SHEET OF FLAME
lit up the entire scene, and a peal of
thunder followed which shook the
earth. Rows of pallid faces were ev
erywhere, and a feafitl panic was immi
nent; but the presence of mind of Mr.
Bailey, the proprietor of the cirous,
saved hundreds of lives. He shouted
with all his might to the audience—
“ Keep your seats!” and called loudly
on the band to play, while at the same
time he urged the performing horses
about the mg through little lakes of
water, hoping thereby to attract the
attention of the people and save a
runted a-oonseauent trampling to
Meantime the lightning had done
its work outside. The bolt seemed to
come bom the west or southwest,
cutting a hole about twelve feet square
through the top of the mail canvas,
thence across an open space to the
willow tree spoken of above, shatter
ing that tree, killing the horse which
was tied to it, and Knocking senseless
the driver, tearing the soles bom his
boots and singeing his clothing. Thence
it descended to the group of colored
persons near the tree, and
FIVE WERE INSTANTLY KILLED.
The list is as follows: Elizabeth
Newkirk, of Hurley, aged 16; Jane
Montayne, of Marbletown, aged 50;
Arthur Scott, Kingston, aged 30; Jas.
Bush, Marbteton, aged2B; W. S. Ever
son (supposed to be). All Were talk
ing together. Jane Montayne was
loaning the tree with her amis
could hardly be pryde apart. Eliza
beth Newkirk was laughing, and there
was Sard work' it—and
persons under the fruit
tent were knocked dowfaid sOTerely
injured. According to the Story of
bystanders, it was indeed a fearful spec
tacle. Hundreds under the m&in tent
were paralyzed,-and extraardnt»ry in
cidents wei-eviaibfo SveryVhfei%;-Wheti
the true state of affairs
known undOT y tJm: main
was no holding the people and thO en
tertainmenfc for the evening ended.
Asa rush was made" for .the ope#
air, it was Maestaine& thdt scores of
persons could not leave their seats.—
All were more or lese injured. One
and dozens were almost unoonsdous.
They sat like statues, and there was a
gaze vacancy in their eyes that was
frightful to look upon. Friendsahook
one of the compositors of the Ulster
Gazette was present, and everyone
was so seriously affected that the con
ductors of that paper had to employ
help bom other offices. One‘of the
employees sustained a very severe
shock. To-day he carries his am in a
sling.
Here is a partial list of those . -
SEVERELY SHOCKED:
Peter Johnson (colored), Abram
Ellsworth, Thomas Ross, Derrieh H.
Stouttenburge, Abram DeWitt, Geo.
Styles, Charles Styles, Edward Bud
dington, C. G. Hasten, James Bellow,
Arthur Near—all those hurt by the
lightning. Patrick Fitzpatick was
struck by something, he don’t know
what, in the knees and breast; he is
in bed. RobL Dickinson was knocked
down by the shook, and lay apparent
ly dead for half an hour. Edgar Oar
son hod his leg singed, and his boot
torn completely off. George E. Town
send WAR standing on the dronsgronnd
with his umbrella in his hand. He
was knocked down and his ombrella
torn to pieces. 4
One person, Andrew Sutton, was
very singularly effocted. He was bad

was badly burned in the left breast,
lay stunned for nearly two hours One
old colored woman who was standing
outside the tent, was sure that she was
attacked with a paralytic stroke. ‘ She
could move neither her acms nor feet
for nearly a quarter of an hour, when
she gradually revived, then hobbled off
the grbtmds. A little child named Ag
nes Desslorolo, seven years of age, was
buried to the ground bom a top seat
inside the main canvas, and had her left
aim broken.
It is a notorious fact that the bodies
of the dead bore no marks of violence
whatever; not a particle of violence is
observable to show that they have died
pths»th«K a natural death. The flesh
is nowhere burned, nor is the hair
scorched. The lightning for two hours
cloud incessantly, down the mountain
sides, through valleys, and across the
waters of tire Hudson.
At various- points alpng the river
dwellings and bams wero destroyed by
it Near Poughkeepsie two bams were
burned; near Fisbkill another; at
Finhkill landing a dwelling was struck
iwioe, but not consumed; at East Hav
erstraw a bam filled with hay was de
stroyed, and at Milton another barn
wasbumed. The damage oannot yet be
estimated.

Horace Greeley to bb Tendered the
English Mission. —lt is learned from a
cabinet officer, that the President has
determined to offer the Ministership to
England to Hon. Horace Greeley, of
New York, and there is official author
ity for stating that Secretary Fish
warmly approves of the determination
of the President, as does also Secreta
ries Robeson aud Cox, of the cabinet,
and it is thought that the other cabi
net officers will also readily endorse
the action of the President Some of
the high officials of the administration
now in this city, state that they feel
sure thftl Mr. Greeley, will be indnoed .to
accept the mission, unless the New
York Republican Convention insists
on his accepting the nomination for
Govenor on their State ticket The
statement is authorized that the Presi
dent and Mr. Greeley have already had
oorespondence on the mbjeot, and that
tho formal appointment will be tender
ed in a few aaya.

The Grand Central Hotel, in
New York, which is to be opened on
the 22d instant, to tfae traveling pub
lic, haabeen two years in the course of
building, aft a cost of two millions of
dollars. It is situated on Broadway,
Opposite Bond, fitjftet, and occupies
nearly the entire block between Amity
and Bleecker Streets, including num- I
bars 667 to 677 thoroughfare,
and 204 to 216 on Mercer
Street. It is 8 stories in height, em
braces more area than any hotel in the
woild, and is capable of entertaining
1.500 guests. It contains 630 rooms,
200-of which are en suite of from two
to four each suit The three extensive
dining rooms seat 600 guests at one
time. The furniture of the hotel is of
the most elegant character, having been
manufactured expressly for this house.
T3»e carpets were mode to order in Eu-
Wilton. Attachecl^to^the hotel is a
Grand Exchange, which has a bulletin
of the news received hourly from all
parts of the United States and Eu
rope, by home telegraph and marine
cable; there is also a hair-dressing sa
loon, newspayer dept, telegraph office,
and railroad ticket office. Fifteen car
riages are attached to the house os a
part of its necessary outfit, and the
price of board is to be from $3 to $4
a day, aooording to location of rooms.
H. Lyman Powers is the proprietor,
and Mr. Frank Crockett, formerly of
the Brookfield House, Boston, has been
engaged as one of his right hand men.
The New York San says: “Unless
death should at once overtake Louis
Napoleon, the rest of his life will be
pretty comfortable, whatever mav be
his political destiny. He has laid up
an immense fortune, and, considering
that thirty years ago he was a penni
less loafer and adventurer, he has done
pretty well in a material point of view
—as well, if not better, than Commo
dore Vanderbilt or Wm. B. Astor,
while he has got himself talked about
in history even more conspicuously
than Admiral Fisk or the gentle The
odoras of Abyssinian renown. Eu
gene, too, comes out of her imperial
spree and fashionable revels os one
or the most solid women of the day,
so far as money and jewelry and laoes
are conoemed. Considering that she
was penniless os M’lle Montijo, she,
too, has done remarkably well, andre
ally has no reason to complain. If
these people were in distress some sym
pahy might be expended upon them;
but how is it possible to cominisaerate
au ex-Emperor and ox-Empress who
have appropriated to themselves the
wealth which would have lifted out of
misery a large portion of the French
peopte ?” |,~j
A Wife’s Excuse fob a Great Sin.—
On Tuesday last the wife of Charles
Scripter, residing on Warren street,
departed hences on the early aftemoofi
train, intimating that she wosgoing to
Saratoga on a brief visit. Her hus
band, who had been absent to Chester,
returned to his domicile on Saturday
evening and found it deserted. The
person in whom Mrs. Scripter found
her much desired “affinity’ f is said to
be one More Watson, for some timo in
the employ of George A Swain, the
lumberman. Mr. S. is a carpenter by
trade, and is represented to be a sober,
industrious, frugal, and honorable man.
Although married seven years, Mr. and
Nrs. Scripter were a childless couple.
The deserted husband, like a sensible
man, declares that he will not go in
pursuit of his truant wife. Below is
the letter which Mrs. Sorpter left for
the perusal and edification of her hus
band:
“Well, Charley, there is not. much
for me to say to you; only don’t mourn
for me, for you, deserve a better wo
man than L I don’t love you, tod you
know it well, and I love the man I go
with better than my own life. You
and me could never be happy together.
That you know as well as I, and it is
growing worse all the time. While I
have lived with you I have been true
to you in character. You may believe
it or not; and now I feel I could be true
no longer; so I leave you. You have
said many a time you would never fol
low me. Now we will se©. But I can
tell you it will do you no good, for, we
Shall be on the lookout for you; and
another .fthihg, we shall go father than
you think for. Before you read this
hundreds of miles will lay between you
and us. Don’t care any more for me,
for you are worthy of a better woman
than I ever shall make. But you con
think I affi happy with the man of my
heart’s choice. ’ Yon will curse me;
and I don’t blame you forthat [Hero
several lines are completely obliterat
ed]. Charley, think itis the best thing
that ever happened to you, for it is.—
So good-by, and forever; for I would
rather die than see your face.—Glen's
■Falls (H. Y.) Republican.
Heavy on the Prussian 1 Flag.— The
LaCrosse Democrat relates that on
Saturday last, a gentleman who for
several years past has been engaged in
the Vermillion gold regions, returned
to this city, and at the American House,
discovered a Prussian flag. “What is
that f” says he, turning to a friend.—
“That is the Prussian flag,” was thean
swer. “Bless the Lord 1” says the pio
neer. This remark created an intense
interest in the stranger, who was ques
tioned as to his enthusiasm over the
colors of an European Kingdom.*-
“Oh,” says he, “it is not because! care
anything for Prussia, but I have been
