was aacenained that Beatty'I immense powder mill
on the York road, aoout eight miles from the city,
was blown up. All the men ia the establishment
were instantly killed, 1--WE in number, and their
bodies scattered into hundreds Of fragments. The
entrais Of one Of the unfortunate men were found
hanging IN the branches OF tree two hundred yards
from the scene Of the disaster There were three
distinct explosions the three buildings occupied by
the mill being all blown up, and the quantity Of
powder burnt said TO be not less than two tons All
the houses in the vicinity were damaged by the ex.

FURTHER OFFICIAL DISPATCHES.

We again, this evening, give up very large por
ton of our columns to the official dispatches from
the army We publish General Worths report of
the brilliant and mastery operations OF his separate
command, and also the letters Of Generals Twggs
and Henderson, detailing the part taken in the battles
by their respective divisions. This concludes the
series of dispatches respecting the operations which
resulted in the memorable capture of Monterey.
The names of the private soldiers killed and wound
ed during the three days. battle before that city
have not yet been officially reported at Washington
We hope, tomorrow, to lay before our readers
portions least of the dispatches which have been
received from General Wool. Our readers will Pc

division, which played so conspicuous and COM

protection Of their interests. When they had the
strength before their dissolution they had the spirit
as has already been shown-th only den.onsira-
ton Of the kind ever made by any power-to battle
down the Sound dues. The same causes prevent
any action on the part Of Hanover, oldenburgh,

best known 10 hsrself but good and sufficient doubt

par excellence the most favored nation, and is con-
tented with this distinction inasmuch as she is per
mitted TO have eommissary on the spot TO attend
to the clearance of her vessels. France has nearly
all her sailors employed in her war marine, and
consequently but few merchantmen TO send any

dened, that she cannot complain while other states,
taxed much higher, submit. The remaining eoun.

Baltic, are not disposed 10 trouble themselves about
the matter.

paid TO Denmark for Sound dues and lights is almost
incredibly large. The following table will show

NEW YORK IN FAVOR OF THE NEW
TARIFF

Aware as We have been, from the hrst, that the
so-called federal victory in New York resulted
from the shor.sighte bargain which the federasts
in that State eonrived to strike up with crew Of
local factions we yet hardly expected to be able to
prove from the official returns Of the late election that
the Empire State exhibits, even in her last vote.
(aRti-renlism and abolilonsm 10 the contrary not
withstanding) clear numerical majority IN JaUOr u
the tariff Of 1916. We have shown how the anti
renters defeated Mr.. Wright But the same anti
renters put the name Of Addison Gardner, the dem
ocradc candidate for lieutenant governor, on their
ticket; though he, democrat, in terms rejected
their profIered aid. Mr. Gardiner, as is well known
ia in favor of the new tariff. John Young is opposed
to it, Both being on the spti.rent ticket, Gardiner
received in the State at large nearly three thousand
votes more than Young, Wesgree with the Journal
Of Commerce that this fact shows clearly, upon
the assumption that the election turned upon the
tariff question) that majority Of the people in New
York are in favor of the tariff Of 1885, and opposed to
that Of ls42. More than this. The democratic eand
dates for governor and lieutenant governor, Wright
votes than were east for Young and Fish, the federal
candidates for the same Office.
But the most conclusive fact yet remains 10 be
stated. IL shows beyond all doubt that the popular
vote of New York in the last election susans the
tariff This fact is found in the official returns Of
the congressional VOts Of the State. They are given
in the Journal Of Commerce, and we will give the
statement of the case by that journal In its own
words.
"From this conclusion" (that the State Of New
York iss in favor of the tariff Of 1861 ian appeal
will doubtless be taken TO the congressional yote
Well, let il be 80 taken. But first we remark
that, by some means or other, the whole antl-rent
influence was arrayed against the democratic con-
gressional candidates Not democrat ID elected TO
Congress in all Antrrentdom. Then, again, the
split in the democracy affected the congressional
ticket very seriously. But after all is said and done
we are prepared show that more votes were given
for democratic congressman at the recent election
than for wings. We do not say by whom they
were given some of them, doubtless, were given
by wings. On the other hand, some Of the wing
congressmen received large number Of democratic
votes.
