E-Next Thursday, the Democratic

Washington, and who seem to care more
for them than for any question of right or
wrong 1t is useless to conjecture the re-
suit, and as our next goes to press the day
the Convection meets, We may not know
in season for that issue. The result will
have its weight on the trembling scale in

CINcINATI Feb. 20.-Last evening, the

destroyed by an explosion, caused by de,
fectivc gas pipes. At seven o'clock some
fifteen persons were assembled in the base.
mcnt, for prayer meeting, when strong
odor of gas was observed. An effort was
made to discover the leakage, and light
was applied to the metre, when blaze
burst forth, but was cx'ingui.hed by a
bucket of water. Qlict was almost restor-
cd, when an explosion took place, tearing
up the hoor; SCATTERING the walls, and ma,
king wreck of the bascmInt. In the
church, above half the pews We're torn ur,
the windows were blown out, portions of
the floor we're thrown as high as the cell
ing, the doors were forced, and the hinges
broken off. In the street, the explosion
was heard at a distance of half q mile, and
the windows of many Of the buildings in
the vincinity were destroyed. Eight or
ten persons were severely wounded, two or
three Of whom are not expected to live.

one hundred persons in the house, between
forty and fifty Of whom are now missing,
The flames spread so rapidly that all egross
was cut off except by the windows. Many
leaped from the third story, and were
either horribly mangled or instantly kill
Cd. Many more were unable to reach
