DREADFUL EXPLOSION.

DREADFUL EHPLOSION.
Our city was astOunded last evening by
the appalling intelligence of the destruc.
tion of the steam frigote Fulton, at the Ma
w Yard, Brooklyn, and the killing and
wounding Of great number Of men, by the
explosion of the powder magazine. We
have collected the particulars Of this terri
bic catastrophe chiefly from The Daily Ad
verliser and GozettG tG-having also made a
visit to the melancholy spot To collect such
additional facts as have transplred since
those papers were put TO press.
The Fulton has ever since the war been
occupied as q receiving ship, aud was moor
ed within two hundred yards Of the shore.
The magazine was IN the bow Of the ship,
and contained at the time of the explosion.
but three barrels damaged powder.-The
explosion was not louder than ;hat produc-
ed by the discharge Of a spgc cannon; nnd

vary in their operation and effects until within few
months past, and having since then been sadly dsaP
pointed in every instance Of using them. began to
conclude that YOU had made your fortune, and bad
abandoned their manufacture to mercenary and IN
faithful hands Under this impression, accidently
saw advertisement OF YOURS in New York news

manufacture by having your written signatureto each

limitations signed with pen and ink, although per
