Terrible ExplOsion...A Young Lad In.
stantly Killed.

lfrom the 81 fau floneefi lAth'l
Yesterday, about two O'Clock, q terrible
explosion occurred in the pop factory Of
Messrs. Austin g. Kenkel, under Dayton's
Bluff, near Carver's Cave. The workmen
in the factory were engaged bottling pop
when the accident occurred. The mode in
which this is done is by forcing it in from
the generator, and when the bottle is full
forcing in more gas and then corking it
tightly. The generators are calculated to
withstand q pressure Of $50 pounds, but
from the testimony Of al eyewitness there
must have been at least a pressure Of
800 pounds on at the time. The probable
cause Of the accident is that from the in
tense pressure a piece Of marble, one Of the
ingredients used in the manufacture Of
soda, was driven into the safety pipe, the
result being to u the generator TO burst.
The consequence was disastrous, the gem
orator divided in half, blew out the front
and rear of the building. One Of the
pieces weighing some fifteen or twenty
pounds struck a lad named James Resan,
about fifteen years old, on the head, mash
ing it badly, and knocking him senseless.
Mr.. VIM Rockwell, who was present and
was thrown some ten or twelve feet BY the
force Of the explosion, at once picked the
poor ieiloN w MS clolnss anu person
where burning from the vitriol fall
ing on him from the generator
and put him under a spout, when the water
quickly extinguished the FIRE. The sufferer
seemed to be conscious, but suffering in
tense agonya Drs. Murphy and Wharton
We're ~ enees SWt for, but before they M
rived he was released from his agony. Dap-
iel Terwilliger, another employee OF the es.
~tahlishment had hia arm and leo bodly
the vitrol falling on ii. To SHOW the force
OF the explosion it is only necessary to state
that a piece of the gehepitoH weighing oyel
one hundred pounds, was propelled q dis
tanee Of one hundred and twentyrlour feet.

Accom- sToRY is told Of an American
merchant who, a few Sundays since, went
into a fashionable London church, a few

GEN. CANBY's TYRANNY.-The following
instances of the tyranny of Gen. Candy, in his
Military District in South Carolina, are related
by the correspondent of Western paper:
A Democratic meeting had been held in a
church used in common by several denomina-
tions, but when the carpet-baggers and negroes
proposed to hold Radical meeting therein,
the trustees Of the building refused to permit
it to be used for so disreputable purpose.
The case was thereupon laid before Gen. Can
by, who had the trustees arrested for their
criminal discrimination against Cufiee, and it
is stated that they are to be tried by Military
Commission 1t will certainly require some
ingenuity to frame the charges and specifica-
tions in such a manner that the case will not
cover Candy and his Court with ridicule.
His next tyrannical exercise of arbitrary
power was the summary removal of thirteen
Charleston Aldermen, without assigning a
shadow of reason therefor, and the filling OF
their places with Radicals, seven of whom are
negroes. BY some. this act is ascrlbed to re-
sentiment against Charleston society for turn
ing the cold shoulder upon him-a consequence
of the devotion he has shown to the will OF
his Radical masters.

THE REMALNS-oF DoUGLAS.-A' late liz
nois paper says: At the removal OF the re :
mains of Stephen A. Douglas to their new
mausoleum at Chicago, on. Wednesday, the cot-
fin was opened, and the face of the Senator
found to Be in remarkable state of preserva-
ton, almost as natural as when buried, seven
years ago, excepting that the eyes we're sunk
en-, the nose contracted, and the surface OF the
forehead somewhat ndented or pitted; but the
complexion was very fair, the contour OF tho
head and face apparently unchanged, and the
expression quite natural and plainly recogniz-
able. The hair looked glossy and black as ev-
er, and the raiment as new and tidy as when
first put on, not presenting the least evidence
of midew or discoloratinn. Lieut,-Gen, Sher-
man was among the pail bearers.

CHANGED IT'S PoLrrICs.-The Clinton
county (l) Independent, formerly Republ-
can paper, is now published in the interest OF
Democracy Its editor, Mr. George Sellers,
who has been Republican ever since the or
sanzation of that party, says he can stand it
no longer. We quote the following from
late issue: q .~.
Nearly all the decent men who ever belonged
to theRepnblican or Radical party have left,
and many more will leave it. as soen as they
learn the truth. Chief Justice Chase, Scna-
tors 'Frmbull, Grimes, Ross, Fesscnden, Cow
an, Doolittle, Dixon, and even the President OF
the United States, have left the party since il
fell into the hands of such dirty thieves as
Beast Butler, Dirty Work Logan, and original
favorites and Abolitionists like Stevens and
Sumner.

SINKS WHEN HONOR DIES.

When Greece, in arts and arms supreme
Rose sovereign DER her darkened age,
And lent its oil, immortal theme,
To grateful History's page;
When words, like arrows, winged with fire,
Touched hearts that kindled at the fame,
And song re-echOing to her Tyre,
Heard the far voice Of coming Fame;
Then Freedom kept guarded mound,
That fortress rock where Athens safe,
And wisdom's soul divinely crowned,
Its sheltering genius held the State.
Resistless Thought, its vital beam
To bard and sage, and hero gave,
That long has lit Timess upward stream,
And shines eternal on the wave. ''
This was her boast; and is her pride,
