Horrible Explosion in Greek Waters

By a latter from Athens, July Stb, it
would appear that travelling in Greek
waters is scarcely safer than travelling
in Greece by land. On Monday, the
Sd Of July, the Greek Company's
steamer. the Eouomia, left the Pir9us
to make the tour of the Pelopounesus,
having ON board 100 passengers,
among whom were a newly married
couple bound for the Island of Spezzia.
1t was resolved at breakfast to fire, on
reaching that island, a salute iii their
honor, and for the purpose of getting
powder, a man descended with a light
ed candle into the magazine underneath
the saloon, leaving the trap door open.
A little girl, the daughter Of Colonel
Skuse, COmmandant of the pirPus,
coming into the saloon, stumbled over
the trap-door, and the candle was up
set, a horrible explosion being the result
The child and her father were two of
upward of forty whose charred remains
were recovered from the sea. The un-
happy bridegroom rushed into a cabin,
from amid the smoke of which he car
RED off what he believed was his bride
and plunged with her INTO the water
On being picked up by boat, however,
he found that he had rescued from
death young lady OF Athens, and he
returned to the steamer to find his wife
burned TO death The scene of this
terrible catastrophe was near the town
of Spezzia, the inhabitants Of which
place crowded III their boats to the res
cue of the surviving passengers. The
greatest Indignation was expressed
toward the Captain of the Eouomia,
who did not think proper to run the
risk OF landing at Spezzia, but conduct
ed his disabled vessel to Syra.
