Hey there. I was trying to change the battery on my 98 Civic LX but the used battery I got had the terminals on opposite side from the previous battery, anyways I loosened the negative terminal so that it could reach when I finally hooked up the terminals on the battery I noticed the car wouldn't start so I went for a jump ler cable and tried to jump start it but when I put the cable onto the battery is started sparking like crazy and the horn went off.

So I went and got a brand new battery and put it in correctly but the car still won't start did I blow something by putting in a wrong battery and trying to jumpstart in?

PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Possibly...what does it do when you try to start it? Does anything have power...radio, lights, does it crank and just not start, or is just dead?

It probably blew the biggest fuse in the engine compartment fuse box. 80 Amp I believe.
