President on both occasions, by an amost
exclusively Southern vote. The Louisville
Journal thus refers to this pointed rebuke,

North:
When Democrats talk of secession in the

functions which Thomas Jefferson gave IN
the country IN his Inaugural speech, on Mar

I.uDIcRous IvcIDENT-A Raatrdy Engineer
Bloun up bv Barrel-I'he following incident
combined with serious explosion, occurred at the
Western Railroad engine-house, at Springfield
Mass, the other morning:
One Of the engineers had wickelly puroned an
oil barrel. which he intended purifying and filing
with cider but how to get the thing free from
the taste and smell of oil was job as difficult as
getting the cask itself He took the advice Of
friend, however and filed it full Of unsocked lime
and water, which ingredients formed an immediate
and powerful gas, causing the barrel to explode,
and throwing the enormous engineer some twenty
feet into the air. and landing him astride Of n los
connective snoke-stack, with hoop in each hand.
Here was a sad diemml. His engine was covered
with lime. oil and dirty water, and must be ready
for the days trip within an hour: he himself was
besrneared with the liqnid and lastly his cider
barrel was only fit for kindling wood The two
latter difficulties however were, of necessity, over
looked and the engine was only cleaned in season
for ts early journey by a liberal application of
financial soap and judcious use of the remain
ing hour.
