vessel, which was to carry the shipment away.
The glycerine to be shipped was carried first by
the men to q wagon, In which IL was transported
to the vessel. Five hands were at the time of
the occurrence at work In the factory, Sebastian
Bourmon and his son Leonard, Richard Hentz,
Henry Richter, and Herman Myer, and son of
Hentz, who bore the same christian name with
his father, was there for the purpose Of collect
ing money due him by the proprietor of the
establishment According to the testimony of
Leonard, 1t seems that his father, Sebastian,
was carrying bag of the material to the wagon,
when he let 1t fall, and the explosion followed
Sebastian Kourmon, Henry Richter, Herman
Meyers, the foreman of the men, and young
Richard Hentz were killed outright, and
Richards father was seriously injured. The re-
mains of the men were scattered in every direc-
tion and they were so mutilated that no piece OF
them weighing over ten pounds was found. They
were gathered into baskets, and now lie in the
factory awaiting burial. The only man who
escaped unharmed was Leonard Kourmon. He
lay in the wagon, he testified and as If byh mira
Gle he escaped unharmed. The testimony of
this witness had not been concluded, when the
inqnest was adjourned until Tuesday morning
next, at 10 o'clock.
Crowds of spectators from all the neighboring
country gathered at the fatal spot yesterday to
view the ruins. The debris had not yet been
cleared away, and 1t is not known whether any
of the, glycerine yet remains intact buried
under it.
The factory, originally occupied by the New
1ork Beet sugar Company, was the property of
William Lawton. AT the time of the
accident there were stored in 1t 1000 pounds
of nitro-glycerine, with material for the manu-
facture of about ten tons more. The value of
property destroyed exceeds $75 900.
The occupation of the place by Tall. P. SHAFT
ner was not agreeable to the residents in the
neighborhood, and they appealed to the Legis-
lature some time ago to pass an act prohibiting
the proprietor from conducting this business.
The Legislature complied and an act was passed
few days ago ordering the removal of the
manufactory,

DEATH OF PROMINENT MERCHANT
William Bailey Jones, Esq, one of our most
enterprising ana successful merchants, died
at his residence in this city yesterday MORN
ing at o'clock. Mr.. Jones was q member
Of the firm of Jones, Brown 81 Co. He
came to this city 1851, engaged in busi-
ness with his brother, the late Thomas
Jones, Esq, soon developing such talent as
secured him an interest in the house. About
1850 he opened the house of William B.
Jones & Co., and was 80 eminently success
ful that he amassed large fortune several
years before his death. About two years
ago he partially Withdrew from the active
pursuits Of mercantile life, seeking in
other climes and countries the restoration
of a shattered constitution. He obtained
little relief, and this summer went to the
medicinal springs in the mountains of Vir-
ginia in the vain hope of stopping the
ravages of the disease which was fast hrlr-
Tying him to the grave. Informed that his
end was close at hand, he returned home
on Sunday last to breathe out the rapidly
departing hours of life in the bosom of his
family, amongst his kindred and friends.
In the very bloom of young manhood, in
his thirty-seventh year, he fell asleep in the
full assurance Of the Christians hope. a-
Mr.. Jones was highly esteemed in bust
ness circles for his sterling integrity, libe.
rality, and courteous demeanor. He will
be missed and mourned by many friends.

Please allow an old friend and constant
reader of your valuable paper few lines.
1t is well known. that :" CANDLES Hilr" is
the greatest resort for ladies and gentlemen,
in the summer months, in or near this city.
During the late cheated term y, hundreds
of our best people resorted nightly to this
cool hill to get the benefit of the refreshing
breezes which come in about O'Clock every
night. Now, these ladies and gentlemen
have been much annoyed by gangs Of half
grown men, who go there to sing baschana-
lian songs, fire pistols, and make themselves
generally offensive. Cannot Major Poe be
induced to detail a policeman to look after
these rowdies. and thus permit our citizens
to avail themselves of the refreshing air
found on this most beautiful hill during the
hot nights of summer? 4a Il. .1s% lRoTd

and much money spent in paving streets

and adorning the /" CANDLES Hill Park?"
Fourth street, the greatest thoroughfare in
the city, has not even curbstones laid down.
We earnestly ask the attention of our able
and indefatigable councilman, Colonel Tan
