Our SLIDKLL-English account which has

canscd the people Of Dixie to chuckle over an
anticipated outbreak with England, and other
wise kept capitalists and nervous people awake
for long number of nights pasi, is likely to he
equared Oh without single cross word or angry
look on the part Of the English Government.
AS things now appear, the aspect of affairs
on this side Of the Atlantic, has been precisely
duplicated on the other side. While American

the Rebel Commissioners, and troubll on at-
count oft hiss been feared with I'm Gland. the

ceivcd such ceuntenance that portion Of tho ~

DISASTROUS EXPLOSION At FuRMAN'l DIS
TiLLERY-lloRRIBIE DEArH or An En-
rLoYtE-About o'clock Yesterday morJinr
an eNt'lo-icn and loss Of life took place at Fur
man 4 Go. : (late Policy - distillery, which oc-
cupf| the block bounded by LIST and 81 North
ith ard North 9Th SITS. The explosion took place
in an alcohol still situated at the northeast cor
ner OF the building. A column Of fame shot
up into the sky, and the report was so loud as
TO be heard for great distance around, and to
awaken people from their sl1mbors. Such was
inc force Of the conclusion that portion Of tho
wall on North 4th street was demolished, and
,be street is covered with bricks and half
burned timlcrs.
The man who was attending the still at the
Time, named Frank league, must have been
almost Instantly killed. The burning alcohol
bursting out and flooding the ward with a sea Of
flames, must have covered him with fire. and
ms iormcnts, though horrible, could not have
lasted over minute. He had apparently ran
ABOUT twelve or fifteen feet and then sunk in a
corner mere heap Of reeking cinders, the
head, aims and hands clone bearing a hiloous
semblaI GO Of humanity. The head, or rather
the skull, for that was all that was left of il.
was charr' rs black as coal, only relieved bv
the ghastly white Of the staring ewes. As this
man was the only person who could have told
nov, The explosion happened the origin will pro-
badly never h. explain el. There was a watch
maj III 'ne oululng AZ the ulne, anu anO' har
man e,1 named John Adams, attending A wbiskov
sill, but both escaped without injury.
The burning alcohol in pouring out of the az
ploded still, Hooded the fre-room and ya-d set
fire to the surrounding tubs and woed wo k, and
Old a great deal Of damage 10 the interior OF the
building. Six tubs were burnt, worth from six
to twelve hundred dollsrs each; two copper coils
were destroyed, valued at from twenty-five hun
dred TO three thousand dollars each. Altogei ler
the Loss will amount TO from fifteen to twenty
thousand dollars. The loss will probably be CO.
vered by insurance, as the establishment was IT,
sured for small sums in large number of New
York and WILLIAMSBURG insurance companies.
The fire companies were promptly on the ground
and worked most indefatigally.
a similar explosion occurred at this same dis
tiilery some eighteen months ago, by which
three persons lost their lives.
While the members of Continental Hose Co
No. g. were absent at the fire, their house was
entered by some contcmptible thief, and gold
watch, worth s75, ari sl5 in money were stol,n
from The clothes Of the Foreman, M. Samuel
Guthrie. Mr.. Joseph Cherry, one Of the mem
bers, also lost his watch, valued at s45. Mr..
