POWDER MILL EXPLODED.

Baltimore, Sept 9.-As the stages of the Uni
on line were crossing the Peninsula yesterday
afternoon, at about O'Clock, and soon after
leaving New Castle, loud and tremendous ex-
plosion was heard, and the next minute col
umn of dense white smoke rose perpendicular
ly and uDbroken to an immense height, in the
direction Of the Brandywine The only cause
which could have existed, was the explosion Of
one ofthe powder mills there, and this couclu-
sion was made certain by those who had wit
messed previous blowings up. The shock was
felt and the smoke seen at French Town, 81
miles distant. Nothing is as yet known Of the
particulars.
The Baltimore American of yesterday says,
that letters OF Saturdays date, from Mr. Du-
pont, the proprietor of the extensive powder
works near Wilmington, make no allusion
whatever to the explosion which, according to
verbal intelligence received here, is said to have
taken place near that city en- Friday last
a fatal accident happened to one of our citi-
