POWDER MILL ExPLosIoN.-Bad,o ork.-The
Lafayette, Ia Courier, of the 9th ult., gives the
following particulars of calamity in that city
About eleven o'clock last evening the powder
magazine belonging to Reynolds, Fowler g.
Stockwel containing about one hundred kegs
of powder, exploded, having been set on fire by
some scamps now infesiing the city. The con-
cussion was most terrific, aud its effects most
disastrous to buildings, not only in the vicinity,
but in the outer extremes Of the town. The
powder house, was situated in deep ravine, in
the southeast part Of the town, was small
frame building, elevated few feet above the
ground. Two hours before the explosion the
house was discovered to be on fire. Scarcely
house in town that was not more or less injur-
ed The walls of several Of the brick buildings
in the vicinity, were severely injured, particular
ly the beautiful dwellings of Peter Ball and r.
Gregory. Large buildings three or four squares
from the explosion, were moved from their foun-
datons. Doors burst open, windows broken,
plaster knocked off, walls cracked and other in
jures sustained. The windows of the Catholic
Church, over half mile distant, were nearly all
broken in. There is no means of ascertang
the amount Of damage DONE but probably not
less than $4,000 or $4,000. There were prob
ably 1000 pounds of powder burnt the report
of which must have been heard fifty miles.

We learn that the Exeter IN. H. "News Let
ter is authorized by Captain Long, of the Mis-
sissippi, to say that Kossuth, while on board the
vessel, presumed to dictate to the officers upon
subjects over which he had no control, and in a
manner that could not be endured. This Kossuth
was made to understand, but no challenge passed
between him and Captain Long.
We think it very singular that the people Of
the United States, who are certainly interested
to know the whole truth of this matter, have been
so long hoodwinked on the subject Far be IT
from us to desire to revive a buried quarrel, II
such there be, between Kossuth and Capt. Long ;
but we cannot understand how full and clear
statement of an affair that has been honorably
adjusted can lead to evil, while the strange and
mysterious suppression of facts certainly tends to
no good ends. The present ambiguous outgiving
indeed appears to us far more unjust toward
Kossuth than would the most vehement denun-
ciation
