The recently-erected powder works of Messrs. Dickson and Co., situated at Blackbeck, about four miles from the foot of Lake Windermere, were on Saturday morn ing the some of two terrible explosions, by which three men were killed and three seriously injured. About half-past 8 o'clock, while two men, at the door of the granula ting house, were engaged loading the van with powder to convey to the glazing house, the Brat explosion took place in the building beside them. The frames were com municated to the glazing house, and • second explosion occurred. The Brat building contained about I,oJolbri. of powder, and the second something more. The buildings were about 60 yards apart, with an engine house between them, which supplied power for the machinery in both. How the fire originated no one can tell. The only man in the building where the tint explosion took place WAS found dead among the clibrig. The loss to the owners is very great. The new machinery is amealad to pieoss, the building completely destroyed, and the mat er i a l s o f which they were composed scattered in all directions for 400 or 500 yards round. The scene is one of couiplete desolation. The names of the poor men killed are Row land Penny, John liisttinsen, and James Baythorpe. The body of Penny was found 100 yards from the scene of the catastrophe, completely stripped of clothes, that of Mat tinson was blown over a bill into field • quarter of a wile distant, and the hone and van were flun,g into • wood about 50 yards. The van was smashed to pieces, and the horse was fearfully mangled and killed. A remarkable occurrence in this mournful event was the soaps of the young man assisting Mathison at the van - for whilst his fellow-workman was blown to • distance of a quarter of • mile, and the horse and van destroyed, he received no in jury, with the exception of a slight bruise on the aide of his legs. The wounded men were duly attended to by Dr. Hunt, who was promptly on the ground, and are likely to recover. The house of Mr. Lowther, who resides • abort distance from the works, has suffered nu& from the ex plosion, all the windows being broken and otherwise da nagged. The shock was felt for miles.

THE RET, NEWNAN HALL AND THE AItRILICAN BILTIATG—Ret )111111/01yli Hell, it seems, did not ware the Senate Chamber for his use last evening. Senators Trum bull and Cameron thought it would create a " bed p . rem dent ;" Mr. Prelinghuysen proposed to give it !obi= just oeoe," and then shut down on everybody else, except by • definite rule, and Messrs. Sumner and Pomeroy thought the chamber was due to Mr. Hall, and to " none but men of such eemrcanding character" and of "such service* to this country." We think Mr. Hall did render one great ser vice to the country . by the prayer he made in the Senate. The report suggest iv ely said "it avoided all mention of American politics.' Now that is such • novel and striking sort of public prayer, such a commendable innovation, that we think it worthy of special reward. When Mr. Hall preached in the House Chamberon Sondaymorning he argued " the • rtanoe of ecclesiastical liberty as the guardian of importance of civil liberty, and condemned the alliance of church and state." That, however, was only carrying mails to New castle. We haven't any idea of uniting church and data, and the sermon might as well have been on the American flag. Bat the avoidance of American politics in the prayer was decidedly not coals to Newcastle ; and though we would net prosounee this stroke worthy of special thanks by the senate, we hope Chaplain Boynton will mark and inwardly digest it."—Noo York Timm, Nov. 27.

The amount of the half-yearly sinking fund to be applied next month on the Consolidated Peru vian Five per Cent. Loan of 1865 is 282,8501.,which is equal to 3} per cent. on the 8,685,900/. of bonds outstanding. The total amount of the loan can celled will then be 1,596,9501. The sinking fund being accumulative, the amount available in the following July will be 289,900/., or equal to 3i per cent. on the 8,403,0501. of bonds that will then be in existence. By this process it is calculated that the entire loan—originally 10,000,000/.—will be extinguished in July, 1879. It appears that some short delay is likely to take place m passing the bill confirming the agreement for the settlement of the Greek loans of 1824 and 1825, through the Greek chamber. This delay arises not from any unwillingness or inability of the Greek ministry to fulfil its obligations, but from the suspension of business, owing to the ar rival of the King and his young bride, and from the pressure of other government bills before the chamber. The ministry are confident of their power to pass the bill, in spite of a sharp opposition from M. Christides, the ex-Minister of Finance, and others, who are of opinion that the terms offered to the bondholders are much too favourable. The bill has not yet been printed, but contains clauses carefully protecting the rights of the bondholders to those revenues specially hypothecated for the payment of the interest and sinking fund against any possible misappropriation by the government.
