JERsEY CRY, August l4.-About half
past twelve o'clock this morning a dull
heavy explosion, followed a moment
later by very slight one, occurred at
the corner Of Washington and Mont
gomery streets. The building in which
it occurred is an old, dry frame strnc-
ture, occupied as liquor store by Thos.
Durayey; the upper floor was occupied
by two families. At the instant Of the
explosion a FIRE broke out on he lover
aoor, and within q few minutes had
seized the whole house. The Gre depart
ment we're soon on hand, but before n
single stream could be thrown on the Gre
the whole building fell with loud crash.
Il was impossible to ascertain HOY nany
inmates escaped, but il seems certain
That one man and boy were burned.
The dead body Of a servant woman en-
ployed in the house was taken out about
one clock this morning. Several other
buildings in the neirhborhood were also
burned The loss win probably roach
$40. 900.

ABOUT TO FAIL.

The fond expectation that a revolution
was about to occur in Mexico is doomed
to blight. The civilized world has
doated on Mexican revolutions, and, be-
coming accustomed to them, cannot
now do without them. They are the
acid to the alkali Of a long peace and a
calm world We have instances Of
people praying for rain to revive the
condition of vegetation. That was all
right enough, but universal prayer for
another revolution is something Of more
importance. We can get along without
rain, but we must perish without reyolu-
tons in Mexico. Alas, they are about
TO fail

NORTHERN LIrRRAruRE.

1t has been said that the literature o.
a people is the best mirror of Their
thoughts, habits and aspirations. Tested
by this rule, We have no difficulty in I'M
Outstanding the great North. Take its
pietorials-and they are the especial
pets Of the great masses-and you have
Dat section drawn TO the life. What
purpose are these prints intended to sub
server What good can they do2 The
finest artistic talent is layished upon
them, aud writers whose genius would
have been conspicuous when Chatham
Numbered and Junins wrote, are EN-
ployed. They do not write what would
accidentally fit before their minds, nor
what are great truths in the world, nor
what IS acceptable to the refined taste,
bus stuff, miserable, mean stuff, to
please a mean and miserable taste,
cultivated because it is profitable,
and pampered because it is con-
genial to the great hives Of humanity.
And this vile trash is multiplying, and as
It muliiplies the publishers Of it become
rich. Their wealth is the corruption Of
taste and the ruin Of our literature. The
cuts IN the pietorials are generally vul-
gar, and many Of them shocking. But
nothing else will sell now. A perfectly
decent illustrated psper would not sell
1t would break any one who should at
tempt the enterprise Of Publishing it.
This literature comes down upon the
South 10 an avalanche Ii is irresistible.
Ii is Ike the fOod-it bears down all be
fore IT, 1t penetrafes every obscure
place Of the country. aud allows
aofhing 10 escape It's influence. 1t
dzshss It's foul slops upon that
which IS puresi and Ehitest, and
hates all that IT cannot reach. The
taste Of the country is leaning it. 1t Is
already master Of the North, and is
making rapid inroads upon the South.
There is nothing it regards as too sacred
for the vulgar eye. 1t invades every
place, and is never so successful as when
it finds some lofty name, or some
spotless reputation to assail. If this
internal literature may be taken as
the mirror of the Northern mind,
then the tendency of that mind is
to that which recent excavations at
Pompeii have developed as the taste and
passion of its inhabitants. or course
the people have one defend against it.
No law that Southern State would en-
act for its suppression would stand
moment before an authority that, while
it brushes the citizen Of the South, jeal-
ously guards and protects the utmost
filth and foulness that originates in the
North. No man is bound to buy the
stuff and take it into his house.

A New and Dangerous Organization

Having been approached to join an
organization now being inaugurated in

the editor Of the Georgia Republican,
and having been told that the Organiza-

requesting information relative to the

received the following:
The National Guard is the name Of
the new organization at the South, with
its headquarters in this city. for the
protection Of Union men. 1t is prepar-
atOry TO self-defense, and possibly retalia-
ton, after Ku-klux law proves 10 be a
