The Explosion ct Montpelier.

From the Wutchman, we copy the follow
lowing account of the explosion in n Store
at MONTPELIER, with the remark that, it was
caused, us we learn, by throwing piece of
ignighted fusematch upon the floor by MIR
Hubbard, which fell upon powder, by which
the fire was communicated to larger guam
tty that was being transferred from one vcs-
sci to another, by another person.
cat four o'clock this afternoon a key of
powder exploded in the store of MIR Erastus
Hubbard, in this village, burning several per-
sons in n most shocking manner, and injur-
ing the building slightly. MIR Hubbard him
SELF George Blake, AFRO n. Bancroft, and an
Irishman in MIR IEubbard's employ are dan.
gcrously injured, and several other persons
severely.
We understand that fifteen persons were
more or less injured ny the explosion. Hopes
are entertained that all will recover, though
Mr. Bancroft's case is critical. The store
was set on fire by the explosion, and kegs of
powder bear fire marks, so that il is matter
of great surprise that the damage was Sc
small. We add, that the powder was i'll the
building in violation of the laws of the cor
poration, and in violation also of pledge &c
the proper authorities, eXactcd by repeated
remonstrances and the commencement off
prosecution. This we feel bound TO sny,tha
people from abroad may understand that reg
ulations exist to prevent accidents of thi:
kind
MIR Bancroft died last Saturday.

IfMr Van Buren, would not vote for the
Liberty candidae-as he publicly declared
Inc would not vote for Mr. Ilale-it is difficult
to see how Liberty men, who were so from
principle, can now vote for Van Buren,. The
support of Mr. Van Buren, by MIR Hate, has
