@%A melancholy accident occurred

That blast had been made which left
the rock in large blocks. SO as TO render
ii difficult to be gotten out, when it
was concluded 10 make what is called a
sand blast. by filling the cIevices with
powder. At this juncture, however,
MIR. Cunningham came up. but not be,
lore some powder had been poured into
the crevices, and objected to the blast,
fhinking-the rock could be removed
without it. Mr. Beatty then proceeded to
take out the powder as well as he could
and was just 10 the act of using the pick
TO open the rock, when MIR. Cunning.
ham again interfered, and warned him
OF the danger OF igniting the remaining
powder. But the caution was uDtortu.
nately rot heard, or not needed. The
stroke was made, and an explosion ensu.
ed, which blew up Mr.. Beatty, and so
injured him that he died in few min
utes. Mr.. Cunningham was also thrown
several feet but his injury, though Sc
we're, was not dangerous Mr.. Beatty
we understand was single man, ma.
