Another Fearful GIycerine EXpiOs-

OBSERVER.

At about haff-past six o'clock Sunday
morning the nitro-glycerine magazine Of
Geo. w. Mowbray at the Hoosac Tunnel
exploded with fearful report, which was
distinctly felt for many miles. About
fifteen hundred pounds of the explosive
were stored in the magazine, nine hun
dred of which was thawed out ready for
use. The process of thawing since the
means of steam pipe leading from the
boilers, some twenty rods distant, SO that
everything had been done that could be
devised to make the magazine safe. At
three a. m. the man in charge says there
were about fifty pounds of steam on the
boilers. No person is known to be mis-
sing, and no cause can be given for TIE
explosion. Six hundred pounds of gly-
cerine were discovered under the rubbish
still frozen, and were safely removed to a
small building near at hand. This ex-
plosion has made terrible havoc with the
other buildings, and had it occurred dur.
ing working hours there would have been
several killed. Every window on the
south side OF each building is demolished,
and one Window. in the boarding house
was blown in upon the bed where two
young Ladies were sleeping, cutting one
of thex slightly. The distilling building
was nearly destroyed.
The gfycerine' explodes occasionally,
'still it is perfectly safe" Prof. Mowbray
is in New York, quite i'll at present.

REPLY TO "HAwK EYE.

Editor Rutland Herald:-I noticed
in your issue Of the 14thiinst., a bit of in
telligenos from Middlebury, VT, over the
yery significant signature "Hawk Eye
This omiuous bird who possesses this
eye, to watch from his elevated sphere the
inr ocent brood below, until in the mo-
ment Of their unwariness he pounoes down
to satisfy his voraeious appetite, might
himself perchance be devoured, ii the
meat that would slough off his bones was
known to be in the least degree palatable.
Hence he is permitted to sail, in the ever
narrowing circle of his own hypocrisy, the
pest OF good society and the terror OF the
unpretentious.
The facts alluded to by "Hawk Eye"
are, as understand them, simply these:
Mr.. W. II. Ellis, Jr., who keeps accord
ing to the unbiased judgement of all, a
very respectable saloon, was pounced up
on by this Hawk bird" who entered a
complaint to the State Attorney that said
Ellis furnished drink contrary to the
Statute.
la the trial which subsequently, took
place Mr.. Ellis was adjudged guilty OF
eeven offences-four Of which, as under
stand from the testimony, are worthless,
and will not stand the test in the higher
courts. From said judgement of the JUS
tiee of the Peace Mr.. Ellis svailed himself
of the privilege granted him by the Stat.
nte and appealed to the loftier judgement
of the county.
would ask Hawk Eye" if Mr.. Ellis
bad not appealed, would he have been SC
intent and eager to set before the world,
in the aminus in which the said article
was written, the awfulness of the said re.
spectacle saloons
understand that it is characteristic
of Hawks to be confined in their bold as.
saults to certain seasons of the year, when
disappointment drives them forth to pre-
vent starvation, SO it ia with the Hawk of
Middlebury at set times, when driven to
desperation by a season of apathy to
pounce upon every one who does not keep
out of the way of their unsheathed claws
and hooked beaks.
Mr.. Editor this falcon tribe is known
Their piercing eye tells their nature.
Their blood stained claws show the ex-
tent of their ferocity. But Mr.. Editor
this bird is not willing to eat the flesh Of
his first victim and be satisfied, but must
dive after another, prejudging the guilt
and slandering the veraoity of his neigh
Dor. 1 would ask "Havk Eye" to wait
thu events before he eats this second
breakfast with so much pleasure Oh.

in reference to that country. The Jour.

"Our friend Clark does not seem to

most triumphantly, and hence its immense pop
