The Wyoming Hotel, in Greenwich Street, the Scene of the Disaster. “Mifect on the Surrounding Buildings. “HOUSES AND WINDOWS SHATTERED NAMES OF THE INJURED. INTERESTING DETAILS OF THE AFFAIR. &. &e. de. At about eleven o'clock yesterday morning a ter- tific explosion startled the down town inhabitants, ‘Those who heard the noise at a distance supposed it to ‘be a boiler explosion, while those in the immediate vicinity are still ignorant of the direct cause, as eub- sequent revelations will show. ‘A smail box, containing come unknown fluid or othor ‘substance, was placed some two months since by a guest of the Wyoming Hotel, Greenwich street, in the office of that establishment for safe keeping. The box was a small one, two feet long by about ten inches wide, and carefully fastened. This gitst’s name was Theodore ‘Leera, who came to the hotel on the 3ist of August last, leaving the box in the office, and taking the remainder of his luggage, which consisted of two trunks ‘and a valise, to the room allotted for his use. Mr. Leers ‘remained at the Wyoming Hotel until three weeks ago, ‘when he went to reside in Twenty-fifth street. The cx- \pressman came for his luggage, but failed to take away MOVEMENTS OF THE MYSTERIOUS BOX. During allthis time the mysterious box remained in the office of tho hotel. It was occasionally moved from | »side to side. Sometimes gentlemen blacked their boots ‘upon it, while again and again it was used as a seat— rather a risky one, as subsequent events have conclu- sively proved. Of course, as no person had any opportu- nity of ascertaining its” explosive qualities, no care was exercised as to its movements, and the box was moved , hither and thither through the office as circumstances dictated THE EXPLOSION. A few minutes past eleven o'clock yesterday morning (| amoke was discovered coming from the box, and soon {){) after flames made their appearance. Mr. J. C. Mersereau, brother of a former proprietor of the hotel and a guest of the house, called the barkeeper’s (John Grogan’s) atten- ‘tiom to the fact, and both proceeded to remove the box from the office to the sidewalk. Mr. Mersereau helped to carry it to the centre of the barroom, and Mr. Grogan draggéd it the remainder of the distance to the sidewalk, whore he left ft. Fortunately, the ‘young man at once walked back into the hotel and went behind the bar, else be would have been hurled into eternity without a mo- ment’s warning. About thirty seconds after the box had been placed on the sidewalk it exploded with a terrific ‘noise, The concussion was felt in all the lower part of the city on the west side. The explosion was heard in Yorsey City and Brooklyn, and was supposed by those at ‘@ distance:to be the firing of a heavy piece of ordnance, OIAGRAM OF THE IMMBDIATE SCENE OF THE RX- PLOSION—ALSO A PLAN OF THE’ GROUND FLOOR OF THE WYOMING HOTEL.

THE EFFECT OF THE EXPLOSION. The sceno presented immediately thereafter, both in tht hotel and out of it and on Greenwich streot, near Jay strect, was one of a most extraordinary character. The hotel, but a few minutes before reposing, as it. were, under the calm influences which are ever known toa Sabbath day, and the street given to that regularity which it only enjoys at the commencement of every week, was, as if by magic, changed into a pictnre of ruin. On the spot where the box had been deposited was adeep hole. The curbstono was torn away and a piece of it thrown nearly across the street. Some of the flag- ging on the sidewalk and some of the Belgian pavement nearest the gutter was also torn up and cast about in a loose, irregular manner. A barber's pole, but afew fect from where the box lay, was shivered as completely as though it had experienced the effects of a heavy stroke of lightning. On the sidewalks, on both sides of the street, were the remains of broken panes of glass, and directly in front of the hotel were fragments of shutters, doors, sashes and pieces of wood and stone, that bad fallen from above from different parts of the building, Supper! opposite tho hotel, the building occupied by Messrs, Fin! & eman, Jr., produce commission merchants, _pre- sented a sorry sight, Kvery pane of glass in the’ front part of the building was shattered to pieces, while in Some instanes portions of the sashes were broken in also. The windows in the house of John ‘taylor & Sons, corner of Jay and Greenwich streets, sustained somo injury, as also did the windows in nearly all the houses situated right and deft of the Wyoming Hotei, on both sides of the street for from one to two blocks each way. THE POLICE AND THE PEOPLE ON THE QUI VIVE. In an incredibly short space of time after the explosion took place the police and .several hundred citizens. has- tened to the scene of the mishap. The policemen were remarkably prompt, and did all that officers and men could to assist the sufferers. They passed through the hotel, from room to roum, to see that none were left in sensiblo or helplessly injared in bed or in any generally out of the way place; then with part of their number conveyed the sufferers to the Fifth ward station house, while the remaider formed iines, making threo sides of @ equare, outside of the building, and kept the pressing crowd back and kept them quiet. The detachments of police present were under command of Captain Petty. Captain Brackett was also there. Of course everybody wanted to press forward and see and hear, and sympa- ‘thize, and doa good many other things too numerous to mtntian here; but the policemen were resolute, and hence any momentarily “lucky” wight who chancod to slip the line was ruthlessly seized ‘‘a-rear’’ and politely handed out to his fellow man. Hud it not been for the order thus preserved it would have been impossible for any one not on the spot before the explusion took place to have ascertained ‘the Arue facts relating to the occurrence, THE SIGHT PRESENTED INSIDE OF THE HOTEL AFTER THR WyPLOSION. On the ground floor alf?the doors of’ the public en- trance were torn from their hinges. The window cashes were completely destroyed and the glass scattored in every conceivable dircetion.. Many of the glasses upon and behind the bar were broken, 7s also were not a few of the botiles contaiming liquors of various kinds. In the office of the Shots bundles, books and many heavy articles belonging (o tho guests and the proprietor were lifted up and set down again in barely exiricable confusion. ° At the timé when thy explosion took place there was ‘ono girl in the pantry; but, aside from the effects of the shock, she sustained no material injury. In the dining hall the table was set for dinner, Chaira were overturned, some of the ceiling broken, and the floor literally. strewn with glass. On the floor above the ottice and bar is sitaated the parlors. hore the glass in all the windows was broken to pieces and driven in all over thy carpets, ‘The shades were torn from the rollers and cut and deposited on the tables and elsewhere. ‘The furniture, ornaments, and in fact every article in the parlors sustained more’ or less injury. In one of the rooms on the third floor a lady and her three children were dressing at the time the accident occurred ; but aside from being well shocked and slightly cat with glass they did not experience muterial injury. On the fourth, fifth and sixth floors the damago to the windows is ‘radical.’ In the highest rooms the win- dows are more seriously injured than in the lower ones. ‘The proprietor of the hotel, Mr. Stoddard, was sleep- ing inthe house at tho time when the explosion took —. He does not admit to having experienced any feeling other than that of a severe shock, and of course of a “severe” surpriso also. In the basement oi the hotel the cooks were hard at work preparing dinner. They were all badly scared, and some of them very slightly injured, A woman who was washing in the cellar said:— The first I knew, an awful eae came along; the gas wad extinguished and the doors thrown off their hinges. One door was torn down and banged up against the wali {n another room, having passed through a doorway. never felt so funny inall my life. I thought the city was blown up."* ‘There 1s an insurance of $4,000 on the furniture in the hotel, The building is also insured. DINNER UNDER DIF FIC 1K8. - In Gfty minutes after the explosion took .place the in- jured parties had. been conveyed from the building and | explosion was evidently caused by that material. the servants set to work to sweep the rubbish out. By two o'clock the furniture in the dining room was rearrange: the tablo reset, and the guests then “fon hand’? with dinner. The ‘attendance’ was large and made up sexes, some of whom bore marks of slight cule on, the neck and face. During the afternoon, and even until nightfall, crowds je visited the scene of the explosion. of them lin for hours in the neigh! ood and went away wit ut pi vcgrens a detinite idea of the cause of the trouble. the eaflier part of the day the general impression seemed to prevail that a botter, similar to the ones used in our largest hotels, had burated; but by afte reports of all- kinds were putin circu- parity eredited.

Morgan L, Dix. THE UNION OF THE FPISCOPAL CHURCH NORTH AND SOUTH. Asermon was preached by Rov. Morgan L. Dix yes- terday, in Trinity chapel, in which refereneo was made to the work of the recent Episcopal Convention of the United States at Philadelphia. The preacher's text was the sixth verso of the forty-fifth Psalm: “God is in the midst of her, therefore she shall not be moved.” He said the Triennial Council of the Episcopal Church has closed its session, and that it is a subject of congratula- tion that the Church has passed through the crisis of the last four years caused by the rebellion without having one of its great principles destroyed or impaired, but that they come out of the struggle purified and invigor- ated. The Council met in tears and with apprehension, ‘The storm of war which had so long soparated the branch of the Church South from that North was over, but the waves still rolled high, and before they would subside no one could tell what damage might still be done. The preacher then reviewed the many and unusual diMculties which lay bofore tho Convention. A Southorn bishop was present when the Council first met, and took his scat away down among the con- grcgation instead of coming up among the Council as usual. ‘The question arose what was to be done when he was known. It was soon resolved to send a dignified re. quest from among his brethren that be should come and take his place among them; and when he came nota dry ogo wns to be scon in that reverend and pious assembly. ‘Thus was one difficulty settled. Before the Council ad- journed several Southern dioceses had their delegates there. A question next arose about the consecration of the Bishop of Tennessee. He hada very rebellious record, ‘was @ priest and was present from Nashville as the choice of the Church in Tennessee for consecration. He was finally consecrated with ceremonies which were pur- poaely rendered more than ordinarily imposing. Next camo the question of the consocration of the Bishop of Alal le was consecrated by the Church South two years avo by men who were prominent supporters of the Tebellion. The question was, should ho be roceived without some acknowledgment of his errors, some exprossion of loyalty to the government’. And tho Couneil answered, “Render to Caaur the things that are Cosar’s, and to God the things that are God's,” and only required him to roduce indisputable evidence of his ordination in the uth to obtain the recognition of the Council. The Epiacopal Church has nover been divided. No one can charge it with schism. In tho Council there was perfect harmony. There were delegates present from Canada and foreign countries, and many important questions regarding missionary labora, the ordination of the priests, the education of the young, and other matters, came up and wore thore decided with unity and unanimity, He con’ this Convention with those of sectarian bodies, drawing an unfavorable picture for the latter, ‘and wound up with a peroration on the great mission of the Epi: Church and the Christian's duty. Whe Festival of St. Charles Borromeo, CONCERT IN THE SYDNEY PLACE CHUROH, BROOK: LYN—ADDRESS OF ARCHBISHOP M'CLOSKEY. A Concért was jgiven last evening in the St. Charlee chareh, Sydney place, Brovklyn, in honor of the festival of St. Charles Borromeo, The building was donsely crowded by an audience that had been attracted by an an- nouncomont to the effect that Donzetti's Vespers were to be'executed, and that Archbishop McCloskey would de- liver an address, Tho exercises were inaugurated by an admirable per- formance of the Vespers, executed by the choir, under the leadershtp of William Drosater, organist and conduc- tor. This was followed by Costa’s Laudate Dominum and by Verdi's Tate Confessor, subsequent to which mor- ceau Archbishop McCloskey delivercd an eloquent dis- course, ADDRESS OF ARCHRIFHOP M’CLOBKRY. He said he was glad that it was bis privilege to ad- dress them on such am auspicious occasion as the feati- val of their patrom saint. He would speak but few words as to the virtues and greatness of St. Charles Borromeo, as traits of whose charactor had been often rehearsrd to his hearers, although some instances in bis Jife could not be too often repeated for their instruction and spiritual welfare, Wonderful was the great world of sainte—eeinte who were examples of the benuty of God, who were adorned with all His. great and holy virtues, and whom His own ‘right band crowned with glory and appointed to occupy the high places neur to His throne.of grace. Therefore should the truly pions praise the saints to God, exalt virtues, admire their cagnee a as ef would exalt virtues and admire the perfection of Him whose glory was onthem reilected. Whatever words of praise, of honor, of veneration, of love his bearers addressed on the santa, would ultimately redound to the praise of Him who loved to be worshipped ia the person of His chosen ones, The Church was the mother of saints, tha fruitful mother of martyrs, of aonfessors, of holy doc. trines, of pure and chaste virgins, who fn all times and in alt Countries bad raised up children to call her blessed, These children bad been taken from every rank and every station in life, from among the poor and the rich, the learned and tho ignorant, trom among the lower clisses especially for God has ever been pleased to make the poor in worldly gooda rich in faith. But there exceptions to this rule, and of these was St, Charles Bor- romeo, whose festival they were aseombled to celebrate, Gh Borromeo came into the world in. the mid of the sixteenth century, of illustrious parents and law- abiding ancestors, cele! for their piety and faith, He was in @ castle near Ancona, a to few mites distant from Milan, It was related of er, Count Borromeo, that he was accustomed to Me ye weekly, to recite daily ou his knees the offices of the arch to retire day to partment and clothe himecif in sackcloth, while he meditated as to hie duties towards 80 signal were his charities that his friends often that he would injute the interests wt Dorremec m vabd be saints and how many hee ee not the favor the Lordt Bortoneo soon bocamo firmly reaives ie tenog the pejredood. and at once coramanced hia theo thi chars tee The Archbishop earned to a0 pl TOU 3 see pict} restored to the pe His first act was to call together the Council of 5 thanks to his efforts and to the labors "of an apostle, striving to purify the Church of God from the stains cast upon her by disobedient and reckless children. He began by reforming his house- keeping; and his own household, numbering some three hundred persons, were ordered to assemble in prayer morning and evening, and summoned to confession and communion weekly. He soon attacked the licentious- ness and vices of the nobility, and, with the as- siatance of God, undaunted, fought on till he triumphed over the unnumbered obstacles which were thrown in his path. The reforms which he achieved were per tible everywhere, Bt Charles Borromeo wet y indebted for the establish- ment of Sunday echools, The charity and courage of the saint were evidenced during the plague, when, spite of the horrors of the epidemic, he fearlessly visited the hovels of the dying paupers. 'To.succor the afilicted and alleviate the sullering of the invalid he t his entire fortune and sold the very vessels of theChurch. During the plague it was he that formed a solemn procession, which he led himself, with a rope around his neok, sing- ing litanies and penitential psalms, and beseechiug God to stay His wrath. The Lord blessed him, and he lived ros nd task completed and the glorious excellence of results, ‘ The father of the poor and affiicted died carly, but his memory was cherished and his festival observed more scrupulously than that of avy other saint in the city of Milan. His remains were interred in the cathedral, and Pilgrims crowd around his: grave to do homage to its sanctity, The er had, visited the little city of Ancona, his birth place, and had beheld the colossal ‘statue of St. Charles Borromeo, Which can be seen from Lake Maggiore, as it stood blessing the village and the fishermen below. ‘Though coutemplated at a distance of severai miles, it still bore the appearance of a life size statue, and stood colossal and gigantic, though but a poor example of the colossal piety and gigantic virtues Of the saint. Inconclusion the Archbishop invoked upon his hearers the blessing of God and of their patron, and withdrew. The exercises of the evening were brought to a close with a Je Deum, by Nava, executed for the first time in this country, and. a grand march from a symphony by Franz Lachher, The congregation then dispersed. Interesting Ceremony.. LAYING THE CORNER STONE OF A ROMAN CATHOLIC ORPHAN ASYLUM—IMMENSE GATHERING OF PEO- PLE—THE IBISH SOCIETIES OUT IN GREAT FORCE—REMARKS OF BISHOP LOUGHLIN, ETC. A very interesting ceremony took place yesterday in Brooklyn, E. D., and one which attmeted the largest aszemblage of people, and brought out in fuller force tho Trish societies of the City of Churchas than on any pre- vious occasion for a length of time, The occasion and tho cause were the laying of the corner stone of a Roman, Catholic asylum, at which Bishop Loughlin, of Brook- lyn, presided. The site of this benevolent structure is excellently chosen, on the corner of Wyckoff street and Albany avenue, and is of easy acooss by the: Fulton and Atlantic avenue cars. The funds for the commencement of the building were principally contributed by the Ro- man Catholic population of Brooklyn and Kings county, whose sympathies are very warmly enlisted in the work, and which there is little doubt they will bringtoa satisfactory conclusion. Great preparations were made by the Irish benevolent, temperance an! religious societies to give all possible éolat to the occasion, aud yesterday after early mass they turned out-in most imposing force. About half-past cleven tho procession began to form on the streets running west from Fulton ana Court streets, the heads of the several columns being halted at Henry street. Ittook a considerable time to perfect the ar- rangements for the march, but there were a number of capable mounted marshals seémingly well versed in mar- shalling large bodies of men, and under their directions the various societies were at last put in order, and when, the order forward was given the whole. immense proces- sion started with great regularity and precision. Each. socioty had its own band of musicians, and as_ the: passed through the streets, what with the men in fuil regalia, according to their orders, the distinctive badges of each, the banners, the flags, the music and the im- mense throng, they presented a beauti(ul and imposing appearance. There were over a dozen socicties In tho procession, besides juvenile societies, who were distin- guished by the “wearing of the green,” and who, pre ceded by & splendid drum:corps, Composed of their fel- lows—young lads—attract’l a great deal of attention. The march to the scene of the ceremonies was a pretty Jong one, and thousands of persons lined the strvets as they pasted along, great numbers accompanying them throughout the route, There was a platform erected on the site of the pro- posed building, decorated with the green flag of Erin and the Stars and Stripes prominently displayed. ‘the pro ceasion was halted and formed ina semi-circle upon the grounds in excellent order to witness the proceedings. At this time there were not less tifan forty thousand per- sons present. At five o'clock Bishop Loughlin ascended the platform, accompanied by a large nuinber of tie clergymen of Brooklyn, and immediately afterwards the ceremony of laying the corner stone of the building was procecded with. The day was rawand cold, “a nipping and an eager air” blowing over the open grounds, and no un- necessary delay was: permitted. A hollow ‘stone, apon which the corner stone was to be lowered, was firmly and strongly imbedded in its place, and within the cavit wore first deposited a strong trun box containing a scroil with the names of thy present cecupant of the Papal See (Pius IX.), of the Bishops of New York and Brooklyn, specimons of the coins and paper currency of the day in their various values, records of the city government, copies of the New Yor Hunaup and other journals, and documents of the times. The Bishop then blessed the stone, which was lowered and fitted into its place, This having been auecessfully accomplished, Bishop Loughlin briefly addressed the assemblage. "The work which the Christian psople of po had that day commenced, he said, was one which he hoped all ‘Prosent would see successfully and shortly compl-ted. 9 many charitable and benevolent institutions erected throughout the country was one of the most pleasing and certain evidences of the civiliza- tion of the age. The claims of the orphans were in all Innds recognized and tho sympathies and Hborality of the people were freely extended to thelr succor and support, but uowhere more so than in this country. The asylums for the orphan which were so numerous in Brooklyn were a true evidence of this, Andmmense amount of good had been accomplished in their midst by these asylums. ‘Tho first asylum of the kind in Brook- lyn was built in 1829, and their number since then had increased in a corresponding ratio with the growth of the population. It wag unnecessary, therefore, to remind people who bad so berally contributed of their means to erect these asylums for the vercaved little ones of their duty. He bad but to express the confident a4 that the work now so auspiciously commenced would be specdily completed. The reverend gentleman was attentively listened to by, those of the vast crowd who were noar enough to hear him. . PLAN OF THK BULLDING, The building will be two’ hundred feet in its four fronta, withes courtyard Im the centre, and’ four" stories high. It will beof the le of ‘architec. ture, on the plan of a similarinstitution fh this city. The materials will be of blue stone, with brown stone facings. The site ts 700fcet long by 255 feet deep.

Information received here tndieates that in some sec- tions of the State there is a misapprehension of the question to be submitted to the people at the olection to-morrow as to the approval or rejection of the act pro- vidtug fora debt for bounty purposes, On the 10th of February, chapter 29 of the Laws of 1865 was passed. It provided for a State bounty of $600, $400 and $200. It authorized the Comptroller to borrow the necessary fanda, and prohibited cities or towns from paying local bounties. Section provided that a debt shotld be created; section 9 provided that the debt should not exceed $50,000,000, and that a direct annunt tax should be levied to pay the interest on aid debt, ant alto a direct anqual tex suMcient to pay in the space of sightean years the whole debt, the principal to be pad in’ six, twolve and eighteen years, Svction ten anthorised the Comptroller to issue bonds, Section eleven provided that the act should be submitted to the peaple at the mneral election, and that each e.ector may present ‘& ballot as follows :—“'For the act to create a State debt to pay bounties,” or ‘Against the act to create a State debt to pay bounties.” ol r fifty-six of the laws of 1866 provides that there shail levied and collected for the fecal year—com- mencing October 1, 1860—e tax of two per centnm apen the assessed value of the real and Dy etme gh pod 4 of the State of New York or so much tl as may be necessary to provide forthe payment of the bounties authorized by the aforesaid chapter twenty-nine.

ARREST AND SURRENDER. On the 17th of August last John H. Maron, alias John Welsh, who had been convicted in New Jersey for passing counterfeit money, and sentenced to five years’ imprisonment im Trenton State Prison, escaped from that institation, after serving nine months of his sentence. During the night Welsh found a soft spot near the wall, under which he dug @ hole suiliciently large to admit hia body, He was soon at liberty, and started for New York, after finding a sympathizing friend who furnished him with a suit of clothes loss suspicious than his prison attire. The escaped convict was subsequently rearrested in this city by officers Hamblin and Irish, of the Harbor Police, on the charge of attempting to pass counterfeit ten dollar Treasury note. For this offence Welsh was indicted, but before trial the New Jersey authorities de- manding him, by virtue of a requisition, he was surren- dered, and on Saturday taken back to Trenton by officers Hamblin and Irish, to serve out the remainder of his sentence. CHARGE OF PASSING COUNTERFEIT MONBY. Etlen Rosenberg, an Irish woman, was arrested by officer McGill, of the Fourth precinct, on the charge of tendering @ counterfeit one dollar bill om the Highland Bank, of Hudson City, N. J., to John HL Meyer, No. 15 Peek slip, in payment for a loaf of bread, The bill was refused and Elion informed of its true character; after which, it ia alleged, she tendered it to Adam Keller, aleo of Peck slip, for «loaf of bread. The aceused stated that she obtained the bill from a Mr, Connolly, and believed tt to be genuine. Justice Hogan committed her for trial. A ROBBERY IN A. SALOON. On the night of the 3d inst. Edwin 8. Williams, resi@- tng at the Marion House, in East Broadway, while par- tially intoxicated in Dick Hollywood’s saloon, No, 12 East Houston street, fell asleep,iand before awaking was robbed of his gold watch and chain, valued at three Imn- ‘red dollars. Detective Vaughan subsequently found the stolen property at a pawn shop in Bleecker street, where it had been. pledged by David Wilson. The detective watched for Wilson and yesterday arrested him. He was positively identified by the pawnbroker as the man who pledged the watch and chain, and Justice Dodge com- mitted Wilson to prison for trial. More Counrsrrait Treasury Notis.—For some time past there have been cortain parties in this eity who were endeavoring to shove counterfeit Treasury notes upon the citizens of Louisville, and we have often warned our readers against the same, The new counter feits are well exccuted, and are very likely to deceive the unsuspecting, and in fact those of the denomination of five dollars are so well exeeuted as to deecive ay excellent judge of money. Last night several bills of ten doltars and one dollar were passed in the upper portion of the city, whilo some of them were. also. passed down town, It appears as if it were a preconcerted move on the part of a certain set of sharpers to make a big run of this bogus money last night, About eleven o'clock ‘Thomas Pul- lium, alias Wilson, entered the saloon of Fred. Hesse and called for drinks for himself and_ others who wero pres- ent. He tendered in payment for the same a ten dollar United States Treasury note, which proved to be a coun- terfeit, Oilicors Charles Ovington and James Shindier were informed of the fact, and they arrested the young gentleman and pot him in jail. At the time of his ar- Test he had in his possession over one hundred and sixty dollars in Treasury notes.—Louisville Journal, Nov. 1: MAILS FOR EUROPE.
