8 NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 1855. ‘Terrtfic Explosion at Del— Garesche’s Powder Mills Blown Up. OUR WILMINGTON CORRESPONDENCE. Wiiminoton, August 3, 1855. “About eight o’clock this morning our citizens were startled by a terrific explosion, which seemed ‘to shake the buildings as by an earthquake, rattling windows, breaking glaas in several parta of the city, and occasioning general consternation throughout the place. It was soon ascertained that, by one of those mysterious dispensations which occasionally visit mankind, and which it is beyond human wisdom to account for, Garesche’s powder mills had been Blown up. These mills are located at a place called Eden Park, about two miles from this city, and this is the thind time that a similar catastrophe has oc- curred there since March last. I was soon at the t, and gathered the following facts from the aon of the proprietor, who very kindly afforded me every facility in my researches, It srpeaie the explosion occurred in what is called the drying house, which contained some 200 kegs of powder nearly ready for ahe packing house, a building standing 50 feet dis- ant, and which was blown up almost simultaneously with the drying house, This building contained a Targe amount of Oday ready for market. In and about these buildings three Freachmen were em- ployed, all of whom were nearly blown to atoms, with the buildings. A lad Passing, at the time of the Ko og was also killed. The grinding mill, ig some three hundred yards from the arying house, was blown up es about ten minutes after hn! gay In this building a large quan- tity of powder was in the course of prepara ion, and ‘was involved in the general desiruction by some bnrning pores of the drying house being conveyed thither by the high wiid which apres led at the of the explosion. In this building four men ‘Were engaged ; and strange to say, all escaped with their lives, Only one of them was seriously in- All of the buildings were literally atomized, and the its strewed the ground for a it distance around. A more complete wreck of matter can wearcely be imagined. One of the men killed was blown about fifty fect into the air, and fell a great e from the spot where he was engaged. The buildings around were rendered complete wrecks, and the residence of Mr. Garesche is also badly shat- tered. Trees were torn up by the roots, and present the appearance of having been dead a number of years. Such a scene of desolation it has never been wy lot to witness. e persons killed presented a most horrible spec- tacle, and could hardly be recognized as human beings, they were so shockingly mutilated. They were strangers in the country. They were being laced in their coffins on my arrival, and prepara- ions were making to place them in the grave in the courre of the afternoon. They were to be “ shipped into the earth” almost as unceremoniously as they were called from life. It is due to the ‘Messrs. Garesche to say that in this matter they have done all that lay in their power inregard tothe melancholy duty which devolved upon them. in rela- tion to disposing of the remains of their deceased workmen. eres cea a in a strange land, and to stranger hands has failen the last sad rites. Mr. Garesche is unable to afford any satisfactory reasons for the origin of the explosion. He was in the drying house about five minutes previous to the explosion, and found everything all right, the men preane their duties as usual. He had proceeded the dust house; and when the explosion occurred he at first supposed that the building in which he was had blown up. The only way in which he can ima; that the catastrophe occurred is that one of the workmen, an inveterate smoker, incau- tiously put matches in his. pocket, which were: ig- nited by the friction incident to moving the kegs, Betting fire to his clothes, and thus occasioning the ruin which involved his own life. Mr. G. is quite certain that none of the hands were smoking, as has been rumored. The buildivgs blown up had heen in use near! uarter of a century, and this. is.the only secident it has occurred. in them .. The explosions in the spring were in other buildings connected with the ‘works. The amount of damage is inconsiderable, aside from the loss of life. The buildings were old and light, and of no great value. W. W. ‘United States District Court. San Francisco, June 27, 1855. Before Judges Hoftman and McAllister.

Steamboat Explosion on the Ohio Rivar. THREE KILLED AND FOUR INJURED. the Cincinnati Commercial, Aug. 2.) The new Cincinnati and New Richmond packet Lancaster, No. 3, Capt. Conner, left for Neville on Tucaday evening, with an unusually large amount of freight, principally corn, taking along an additional force of thirty or forty Irish Iaborers, to assist in discha: , wud to enable her to make her usual time. About ten o'clock she landed at Stepstone, on the Kentucky shore, and was receiving a lot of wheat, when the larboard Lesggt td burst, scald- ing five or six laborers. About five feet of the pipe ‘was completely twisted off, while the larboard cabin floor was torn up for ten feet along the guard, and to the width of eighteen inches, About 12 o’clock the Marietta packet Ohio, No. 2, Capt. Blagg, came along, rounded in to the Lancas- ter, where she remained an hour, rendering all the aesistance necessary. She brought to this port twenty-seven of the laborers--three of whom were badly acalded, and died yesterday morning. The bodies of the deceased were much blackened and horribly mutilated. The following are the names of those that died here:— if James Kenney, Irish laborer, aged about forty 5 reuldence 0 Cherry alley, between Vine and streets. He leaves a wife to mourn his loss.

SToomen Joyce, Irish laborer, aged about thirty years, residing on Water, between Vine and Walnut streets; leaves a young wife. A couple of the scalded were left on the Lancas- ter, where they received excellent treatment from the officers of the boat. A Mapmax Loose 1x a Crowp--Great Con- STMRNATION AND StamrepE—NaRrrow Escare— Last evening about half past ten o'clock, while a party of gentlemen, numbering some eight or ten, were sitting in the portico of ‘the American Hotel on Btate street, a man named Lewis Goodman, who was stopping at the hotel, came out of the hall into the office and asked a gentleman to show him where his pegrlar vein was, as he wanted to cut his throat. He fm his band s pen knife, and the gentleman no- pe rad in Goodman's eyes, which evinced ble madness, got out of his way as soon then started forward, striking with the knife twice.

There they found some thirty or forty persons exploring for gold, where it is supposed it will be found in pretty large qauntities. Gold signs were seen and particles of gold had been found, but not in qualities satisfactory to seek- rs. They were at work, however, very euvergetically, ontident of full success. Mr. C. L. Craig, of St. oseph, was at the head of the principal party, all of v hom were Mormons from the Valley, and were in- «ustriously engaged at damming and turning the ‘ed of thee Sweetwater, which is the most spcedy way of coming at the object of their hopes: T! nterprise had been undertaken a little below where traw berry creek empties into the Sweetwater. This a portion of the Indian country where I would fear as many Indian troubles as any other. In fact, a few miles below, at Devil's Gate and Independence Rock, the traders were very much ala |, havin; had several threats from the Indians about the time we passed. Every animal about Independence Rock had been stolen by the Sioux. I saw a fetter to C. L. Craig, from one of the gold seekers, who was about one hundred miles from the body of the party, and near the Devil's Gate, which stated that he had found large qnantities of silver, and that a man in that vicinity haf taken $40 worth of gold in a day. here is no doubt in my mind but rich deposits of old will be found in the Sweetwater country. Num- fers of the emigrants last year found it in i up that bedutiful stream. “I saw and brought home some of it with me. r Gold has also been discovered on the Medicine Bow, a stream south-west of Fort Laramie. A band of two*hundred Arrapaho Indians were encamped a short distance from Medicine Bow river. They were peaceable, but told Mr. Archambeau, the Indian trader, that hay Muha waiting the arrival of the troops from the States, and if war took place between the Sioux Indians and the troops, they in- tended to join the strongest Party. Emigrants were first met at Platte Bridge, about the 9th of June. They were in good health, and Betting along well. The Sioux had stolen twelve orses from them at Ash Hollow. Indians were first seen at Deer Creek, where the party met Mr. John Richord, with a number of mountaineers, half breeds and friendly Sioux In- dians, returning to Platte Bridge to build a fort for the protection of his bridge. At Leabonte Creek, about fifty miles above Lara- mie, near the trading post on that stream, we met a small war net Sioux, who let us pass without interruption. ‘They informed us that they were im- patiently waiting for the United States troops to ar- rive, and had stated that if they did notarrive within ten days they would not come at all, or did not in- tend to come, and that they intended to kill every white mun they found on the road from Laramie to Devil’s Gate. I mentioned this threat to several of the old traders as I came down, who seemed to place but little confidence of their carrying it into execution We proceeded towards Laramie on the upper road, and while we were encamped about twenty miles his side of Leabonte a party of Sioux came up to.us and professed to be friendly. They viewed ourdorses very closely, and proposed several trades with us, which we refused. We made them a small present of flour. They then told us that on that they had seen a portion of the savage band in the vicinity who murdered the soldiers of Laramie, and that they had dodged out of their way. They warned us to be on our guard, as they were satisfied of the bad intentions of that party. We took the hint. Fear- ing more from those who were warning us than from thoee whom we were warned agaiust—having no doubt that it was the intention of the Indians to come upon us that night and steal our horses—we left and encamped until after dark, and after a short rest we started and travelled all night, dodging their evil intention. Arrived at Fort Laramie on the 13th, found a few lodges of friendly Sioux encamp- ed rear Ward & Garin’s. We were informed that sixty lodges of Sioux were encamped at Ash Hollow, waiting until the troops came up, but did not see hem; we saw only one at that point, who seemed to be watching the road. We had in company with usa man by the name f Thompson, from ‘San Francisco, who said his home was in Philadelphia, from which city he had been absent for five years, und where he had a fami- ly. This man was trayelling alone when we over- took him, very bare of clothing, without money, nor had he anything to cat. I first saw him at Salt Lake; he had then just arrived from California; he leit the Valley some time before us, and up to the time we overtook him he had travelied alone. He had eaten but’a few times, going as much as three days at a time without anything. This man we took in as one of our party; he encamped with us at Ash Hollow, and, as usual, when we were about brea king up camp, he started in advance of us. After we had started and travelled a short dis- tance, seeing the single Indian on the watch, it caused inquiry for Thompson. We looked for his track and missed it; we went back and found that he had taken a road which led toa crossing lower down on the South Platte. We, however, supposed that it led around the hill, and that it fell into the road a short distance ahead; after this time we did not see or hear bo ot of him, though we made every inquiry possible. We met emigrating parties at the crossing of the South Platte, who were from Illinois and Southwest- ern Missouri, getting on well. Met Major Eddy at O'Fallon’s Bluff, getting on well. The grass was good from the head of Platte to that point, The immense numbers of buffalo from there to within five miles of Kearney had eaten the grass very bare. Met Woodward & Marshall’s corn train near Cotto: wood Springs; Major’s and Russell's first train, t! ty-tive miles above Fort Kearney, getting on well; and also Mr. Patterson, in charge of a train for Mesers. Livingston & Kincaid, Salt Lake City. Passed Messrs, Ward & Guernier and Major Gratiot’s trains laden with furs, coming down same day; they were bound for Fort Leavenworth. Met Majors & Ruseell’s second train at Fort Kearney, where it had been lying for ten days, a number of led with the buffalo. Left Fort Kearney on 25: of California and wagon emigrants at_a point ten miles below, in good health. Between Kearney and the Blues, met several trains of Mormon emigrants. No sickness on the road except amongst the Mor- mons. One of ‘the Texas trains had lost thirty by cholera. Met Gilbert and Garish on the Little Blue, pm ok S. Williams & Co.'s train at Big Blue; all well. The number of emigrants on the road this year» and cattle for California and Oregon, are very small and the whole of the cattle will not number fout thousand head. We had comparatively a very fortunate trip, until we were within one day's drive of this city, when our highly esteemed friend and fellow-citizen, Mr- James F. Loan, who went out and returned with us» was taken suddenly aud violently ill of cholera. He died in a few hours, Inthe death of Mr. Loan, Platte county has lost one of its most moral, upright and honorable young men, and his wife a devoted husband. Scuvyter County.—The population of this new county is only 18,794, including ‘aliens and persons of color not taxed,” which must be deducted to ar- rive at the representative population. The ratio for a member of Assembly, according to the census of 1845, was 18,941, while the ratio under the new cen- sus will, in all probability, be from 23,000 to 25,000. In view of these facts, the Steuben Courier asks:— Will the incoming Legislature, with all the facts dis- closed by the census before them, assign the couaty of Schuyler a member of the Assembly? This is a matter of some importance, and, in fact, involves the right of Schuyler county to exist as a county. The following provision of the constitution is applicable to the case:— Every county heretotore established and separately or- ganized, except the county of Hamilton, shall always be entitled to one member of the Assembly, and no new county shall be hereafter erected, unless its population rhall entitle it to a member, It would seem clear, therefore, that both the erec- tion of this new county, and its continued existence as such, are in contravention of the coustitution. The subject will probably come before the next Legislature in some form.

When the jury meets at 7 this evening, the result of the medical examination will be laid before them. The physicians express the belief that deceased was not more than 20 years of age. A suitable coffin and grave clothes was presen by Coroner Quin this forenoon, and at 12 o'clock the body was taken to the Dead House, at Mount Hope, to await further direction. A telegraph despatch was sent to Au- burn oo morning, but no answer has been re- ceived, The following is a copy of one of the letters found among the effects of deceased:— Avnury, July 21st, 1855. Drar Canonane—I received a letter a few days since, with no name attached to it, desiring me to direct my letter to Myra Smith, and knowing you left the dress here in my care, not knowing who it belongs to, I thought proper to write to you concerning the dress. It is eolored a very dark tan; and looks very beautiful, He did not water it as the silk was so thin, he thought it would not pay the cost, as he has fifty cents more for watering it. “As it is now, he has scven shillings, and eleven it he waters it. Now, I wish you to write upon receiving this, for I can- not get the silk until I have money to pay for it. He has been in a drunken scrape ever since you were here, and I could not cee him until this week. Now, Caroline, Mr. Youngs told me that you was in a bowling saloon. ' Now, I want to know where you are and what you are doing, He says a gentleman from there told iim so. . I hope you to be discreet in all your life, as your character is your all. Mr. Craig was here two weeks ago to-day, and said he was going to spend the Sabbath in Syracuse. He said that Crawford was mar- ried to Betay Porter, and got « thousand dollars with her. He spoke of you and said you would have to marry upon a short notice; or marry some one that was not worthy of you. Hesaid he would rather marry a poor mans devil than a rich man’s fool. I told him he would never do better than to go back and aly up friends with you, Now just write to me and let me know if he has called upon you. Mr. Stout said he called upon you and spent the evening. This letter leaves us all well as usual, hoping it may find you the same. Now Caroline, if the silk belongs to Mra. Smith, and it is her that I should have written to, please hand her this letter. If you have not time to write to me soon, please to get Mrs. Lyman to write for you, that I may ear from you without fail. From your friend and well wisher, MRS. LANINA A. DECKER. Your mother has been very sick, but is now better. No more at present. (W. B.) Destructive Fires tn Battimore—Loss $30,- 000.—A fire broke out about twenty minutes before three o'clock yesterday morning in the extensive wholesale drug and it warehouse of Messrs. Pop- plein & Thompsen, No. 184 Baltimore street, which was Cube lestroyed, together with most of the contents. The fire originated on the first floor, but how or from what cause is not known. It was dis- covered by one of the newsboys, who gave the alarm, but in consequence of the early hour at which it oc- curred, some time elapsed before a large force of firemen reached the place. The damage to the stock of Mesars. Popplein & Thomsen is thought to be about 260,000, to cover which there are 35,000 in the Associated, $5,000 in the National, $5,000 in the Baltimore Fire, of this city ; $10,000 in the Ameri- can, $10,000 in the Reliance and $5,000 in the Girard Insurance Companies of Philadelphia, and $10,000 in the Hartford Insurance Company. The heat of the fire was so intense that it was im ible at the time to save anything of value from the first floor. Yester- day morning 204 barrels of lard oil and 700 bags of saltpetre were taken from the cellar. The second floor of the same building was occupied by Messrs, G. & N. Popplein, whose principal stock was paint, a portion of which was stored in the warehouse in the rear, on Bank lane. Their loss is about $15,000, which is covered by a policy for $20,000 in the Fire- men’s office, $15,000 of which was on the goods in the front warehouse, and $5,000 on the foods in the rear building. The establishment of Messrs. Pop- plein & Thomsen extended through the upper sto- ries of the house No. 182, adjoining, which was also destroyed, together with most of the contents. The first floor was occupied by Mr. George W. Jones as aretail drug store, a portion of whose stock was saved. The logs will probably be $1,500, which is covered by insurance in the American [usurance office of Philadelphia. The buildings were owned by Mr. N. Popplein, and are damaged to the amount of 26,000 or $7,000, upon which there is a policy in the Equitable office for $10,000. About _8 o'clock last evening, the large building, No. 45 Holiday street, (formerly Elisha Lee's Car- riage Repository,) now occupied by Messrs Mullmyer & Hunter, coach makers, was discovered to be on fire, and in a few minutes immense clouds of black smoke issued from the rear, and made its way through the crevices of the windows and doors. The fire seemed to have originated in the engine room in the rear of the lower floor, and so soon a8 the flames made their way into the workshops in the three upper stories, the combustible material gave them a force and volume that rendered una- vailable the efforts of the firemen to save the build- ing. Several carriages were removed and others were destroyed by being thrown from the shed in the rear. Messrs. M. & H. estimate their loss at $4,000, Epes which there was $3,000 in the Fire- mens’ and $5,000 in the Baltimore Insurance Com- pany. The building belonged to Mr. Elisha Lee, and was not insured, t policy having expired about two months since and was not renewed. Mr. Lee also had an office in the building, in which was stowed a number of household valuables. His loss is about $6,000.— Baltimore American, August 3. The Literary Convention.

The Methodist Camp Meeting, on the old battle ground, near Freehold, N.J., which was to take place on the 20th of August, has been indefinitely age the presiding elder having withdrawn ‘is sanction to the affair, for what he deems good and sufficient reasons. A letter from St. Joseph, Missouri, says:—Our pal- pit has become vacant by the withdrawal of our pas tor, Rev. T. S. Reeve; we wish therefore to call the attention of ministers desiring to locate in the West to this fact. We have a g church building in a growing young city, that boasts of its 5,000 inhabi- tants; and we can pay a minister a salary of from five to eight hundred dollars per year. We want a Southern man in his feelings; we care not where he was born or educated; we do not want him, how- ever, to preach politics, but Christianity, and leave politics where they legitimately belong—in the hands of politicians. The lation of Elizabeth City, N. J., is within a small fraction of 9,000, and it has fourteen orga- nized congregations, each having its own church edifice, occupied by the Ge Fk ion which owns it, as follows, viz.: Four Presbyterian, three Ep’ 1, three Methodist, two Roman Catholic, one Baptist, one African—being in the proportion of one church to each 642 inhabitants.

AN AMERICAN ACTOR IN AUSTRALIA—A Ca) of Good Hope paper thus notices a gentleman who has been connected with several American theatres, including tet P EEO aes R. L:—* Mr. pe Parry, a cele comic former, passenger by the Pacific, en route to ‘England, has announced his iving a dramatic representation in the Commercial fiall morrow aap (Wednesday). Mr. Parry, who, a few years ago, figured as one of the leading attractions of Barnum’s Museum, in New York is on his return from a tour through the golden regions, where he appears to have been very successful. The following notice from the Hobart Town papers, give some inkling of the nature of the entertainment provided:— Royan Vicroria Tuzatry.—We understand that Mr. Sefton Parry, the popular American comedian, from New York, makes his first. appearance at the theatre on Mon- day ¢vening next, This gentleman has been the most successful wtar that has visited the colonies. Both in Melbourne and Geelong his success was only equalled by Mr. and Mrs, Stark. the Intter place, to which we give the palm of dramatic appreciation, Mr. Parry was presented by the citizens with a handsome token of their esteem, valued at one hundred guineas. He appears, in conjunction with Mr. Mason, each evening next week, and we may fitly acize the opportunity of congratulating ‘Mr. Watson in his being able to present, upon the stage of the Victoria, two of the finest performers of the age at one and the same time.—Hobart Town Aduertiser.”’ The London morning papers recently contained the following advertisement:—The lovers of music in England ave many times heard reproduced the sublime and profound thoughts of the great masters by artistes ‘of Berean Be ep irig who all conver, towards London, the capital of luxury and wealth; but rarely or never have the divine emanations of those celestial inspirations been reproduced in their highest Faroe by achild. This will be offered to the public. A child, of six years, will play the piano like most consummate artists, and execute sompoayine of the first class. This youthful artist has had the honor to play before her wie bas the Queen of Spain, and also has been engaged to play before her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, The Athenaeum very justly condemns such exhi- bitions as that mentioned above. SINGULAR TRANSFORMATION.—Mr. J. W. Wallack, Jr., who always used to be announced at the Bowery aa “the young American tragedian,” has suddenly, like Bottom, become “translated.” He writes from Paris relative to the alleged distress among the English actors thus :— I am in nowise interested in the matter further than that, as an Englishman, I do not choose false statements to be published in London prejudicial to the character of an English- man. hen he gets into a scrape, he can get him- self out of it.” This is almost equal to the girl that nee struck by lightning and transformed into a 'y- Meyerbeer’s “ L'Etoile du Nord” (The North Star) has been done at Covent Garden, with Bosio, Lablache, M’lles Marai, Gardoni andjLablache. Great success. We must have it at the Academy next winter. M'lle Nau is singing, in the worn round of trans- lated operas, at the Surrey theatre. ‘The performances of Madame and M. Gassier at Drury Lane closed by a benefit given to the aay which included ‘(so the bills of the theatre promi the presentation of a piece of plate to her, between the acts, a8 an acknowledgment of her rare merits. Such silver illustrations ee opinions” were frequent in the days when Mr. Bunn ‘was king.” All the musical and theatrical world, nevertheless, knows what was the end of Mr. Bunn’s reign, with its never ending, still beginning triumphs and ova- tions. True art needs no tea pot testimonials by way of accrediting its existence and success. On the 16th of June, by order of the French oi ernment, two supplementary credits were opened, in completion of the subvention already voted to the Grand Opera of Paris—one of 100,000, the other of 140,000 france—upwards of ten thousand pounds ater- ling! That theatre may well say,as Madame du Barry is fabled to have said in one of the explosions of her gay impudence, “At all eventa, I cost France something!” Madame Lafond, a prima donna of provincial cele- brity, has been brought out as Rachel in “ La Juive.” Nothing that we read concerning ‘Les Vepres” encourages the idea that Signor Verdi has added a new work of permanent interest to the repertory of the Grand Opera. A correspondent of the Morning Post, the other day,wound up his account by statin, that he “came away with the impression of a super! mise en scene, somewhat noisy melody, and a convic- tion that Mdile. Cruvelli has very pretty arms.” intention of Tanner Storm in Hampton Roaps.—A violent thunder storm paseed over the Shipping in Hampton Roads on Tuesday. The Norfolk News says:—‘The lightning struck the pilot boat York, of this port, killing one man, (colored,) carrying away maintop- mast, splintering mainmast, and setting the cabin on fire. ‘the ship Arcole, Pittman, from Callao bound to Baltimore, had her foremast struck and badly splintered. The schooner ———, Capt. Curtis, was also one of the sufferers. We learn that one man 8 killed in a fish ng boat near Hampton.” MARITIME INTELLIGENCE. Movemceots of Ocean Steamers. FROM EUROPE. Names.
