Dreadful Tornado in Indiana.?The

from a leticr dated July G, received in tha?
city from South Hanover, In.I. giving an
account of a devastating tornado whion
h id buried in rums tiiat fair and liour.Y.ihig
village.
"I sit down in haste (says the letter) to
give you some account ot a scene ti.e most
terrific and appaiimg I have ever witnessed!
Our village that yesterday was peaceful
and cheerful is now in iu.i.s. Yesterday
evening about G o'clock the heavens wore

one hour a most fearful tornacio burst upon
us, sweeping over our village in dcvast ition,
(though praised be a merciful God, not in
death.) The scene was a rrific beyond my
powers of description. Several valuable
nouses with their furniture were totally destroyed?much
proper'y scattered and lost
?trees of all sizes and kinds torn up and
dashed to atoms. There were but few
buildings ;u the central parts of it, where all
the most important buildings were that were
not racked and s-u busty injured. The
streets were covered with fragments. This
was the work of certainly k.,s than five
minutes?yd wonderful as it appears,
amidst the crash of falling buildings, the
fury of the bursting tempest, the peals of
thunder, and the livid glare of lightening,
not a soul in Hanover or its vicinity was
e iiiier killed or seriously injured.*
Extraordinary Leap.?Apparently the
almost impassible barrier which was experienced
in the late Steeple race was a newly
plashed hedge placed upon a loltv bank,
with a broad ditch on each side. In the
line selected by Mr. Evison, on Maid Marian,
it was gallantly charged at a place which
measured eight feet from the gronnd, and
it was cleared without touching a twig.

o j that Company, of the Stock of this, adds to
>f ! t!ie magniticence of tiie scheme of this gigan- j

i determination to place tins grand undertaking ,
' beyond the posibiiily of failure. Possessed of

opinion which had become to be a good deal J ,
c! entertained, that the American merchants J

i Condi!tun <f the parti:s in Spain.?An im- I
10 j portant change has recently been made in ;j
-* j the positio 1 of the Carlists and C'hristinos in 1 '
0 ! Spain. Tlie C'arlists have been for a long
' tune entrenched in the f;.?lnesses of the B s- !1
e, j cay Mountains, where they were surrounded J
rt j by a population ardently attached to t heir
o ! cause. In this inountancous district Don 1
is ! Carlos held his court, if not with the same
st ! pomp and magnificence as the Queen of Mad. :
is ! rid, at least with equal dignity and with much
le ' greater security. Tiie C'arlists have left their
rs ! secure retreat m t!io mountains, and made a
e ! bold push for the plains to the South. At the 1
t- , last accounts they were on their march to ;
e | Madrid, whither they were pushing with great j
ie j energy and some hlile success ; what may be
i- ! the issue of their war now, it is impo.s.ble to j
ie ! predict with certainty. The C'arlists are in ;
>ir ! the heart of {Spain, surrounded on every side i
n- I by open and determined foes, while the Chris-1
ie tinos, collecting in the north, are settling down ;
d. 1 among the hostile popu'a ion of the Biscay j
