Nor SEcrroNAL.-Douglas Uoasts that
he can proclaim his sentiments in every
section of the Union. Then. why don't
he do it? Down South he is telling
them what danger there is of the election
of Lincoln, the sectional candidate and
in every speech he manages to tell what
a fine thing it was that the Virginians
hung John Brown. In the North is
where this sectional Republican party ex-
lists. and there is where he ought to 90 and
denounce it. New England is Republi-
can all over q: yet Douglas travelled
through every New England State. and
never once told the people Of the danger
of Republican sectionalism. nor even SO
much as alluded to John Brown. He
could talk glibly Of the dead old man.
down at Raleigh, at Baltimore. at Nor
folk, at Richmond, at Winchester. and
all through Virginia; but up in New
England, where be and his party say Old
Browns .sympathizers are. the subject
never occnrrel to him. The truth is, the
Little Demagogue has speeches for Nor
thern and Southern consumption, and
hopes to conciliate both sections. Yer
mont and Maine have jus. shown their
appreciation Of him the Southern States
will do likewise in November.

MANY wORKMEN LOST IN THE
RUINS,

Ames & Moulton, in Brooklyn, was blown up
tins afternoon, and ten or fifteen workmen
were buried in the ruins. The building was
an immense structure, and usually contained
about two hundred and twenty employees, in
Guiding one hundred females. Very few of
the operatives were on the premises, the Ca
taStrophe having happened before the hour for
commencing work. The engine and machine
ry were entirely new, and had just been put
up by Messrs. Woodruff & Beach of Hartford,
and were in charge of Mr. Eastman, an en-
gineer in their employ, who was sent on to su-
perntend the putting up and testing the en-
glne. The main building, which was OF brick,
two hundred feet long and three stories high,
is almost entirely demolished.
The killed are Joseph McCracken, superin-
tendent, and one of the owners John Warner,
boss-hatter; Mr.. Eastman, the engineer, from
Hartford; Theodore Higbee, a young man
who had come to the factory to work for the
first time; Patrick McNally, an apprentice
two men, names unknown, one supposed to be
another engineer from Hartford.

hurt In the spine; John Gallagher, skull frac-
tured John Van Voorhees,, badly scalded

Anne Garrity, badly hurt, not expected to live
John Farrell and John Mulholland, mentioned
above, have since died in the hospital.
There were about twenty-five employees il
the building at the time of explosion, of whom
nine were females. The explosion is sup
posed to have been caused by the freezing o
the water in the pumps. The boiler was tori
into fragments; one piece passed through
three twelve inch walls. Another crossed tn
| yard, striking the building. used as dryin,
room, and passing through both walls. Fou
| girls were found after the explosion, clingin
to the rafters of the building, but they wer
rescued with but trifiing injury. 1t is feare
there are others still under the ruins.

die; William Crook, badly scalded; Jam'
Worthington, badly hurt. The accident o
CURED about fifteen minutes before eigl
o'clock, when the greater part of the oper
tives were on the way to the factory TO cor
