pairs TO the machinery, exploded, parting
midway, Que portion (abOut twenty-five
feet long) being blown distance of over
three hundred feet, carrying away the en-
tire side Of the rolling mill building and
tearing down tall smoke stack about
sixty feet In height. The remainder was
blown IN an opposite direction, carrying
away the frame structure of the mill with
ii, and landing about two hundred feet
away.
Tnero were engaged at the time about
forty hands, but the sloppage of the ma
chiucry doubtless saved miny lives, IA
! they were lying down in diifnett parts Of
/ the mil. The eAcit ment ufthc explosion
b. ing over, an examination was made, re-
hulting in the discovery that ten persons
had been Injured three fatally. Alfred
Hocroit, terribly scaded, died In few
hours; John Mcdowell and Henry BOuld-
en-, bOlh scalded, died on Saturday even
ing. In addition to the above the follow

Mr.. Editor III your kitten continues
to take cantaloupe il may cultivate a taste
for vegetable diet equal TO Gems" who
not only partakes of cantaloupe, but raw
white potatoes are INDUCED in, while
asparagus and roasting ears are hankcred
after, when they are in season. His owoer
was at one time resident of the country
and was the possessor of small asparagus
he'd, as well as n truck patch where canta-
loupts grew but for some unknown cause
the asparagus would he nipped OIL as soon
rs II grew above ground, and many an
innocent bug persisted for =" Gems" persis-
tyncy. He would be about before the
earliest riser, and 1t was only by accident
that the destroyer was discovered. The
truck patch was some two OF three hun
dred yards from the dwelling, but "Gen"
always had cantaloupe about the Louise as
long a. the season lasted. How he sue
Cceded in bringing them so far, or what
means he employed, remains a mystery to
this day, but he accomplished the feat
nevertheless.
1t is due 10 our kitten thus eelipsed
that we should say that it has a decided
liking for raw roasting ears, and II is very
young. It is probable that it may in time
become enough of a vegetarian to become

FRIENDS MrrTiNm-O last Sabbath
afternoon the Sncity OF Friends held a
Circular Mcrli .. IA their meeting house
in this city, wnich WIS largely attended
by Fricuds Of the surrounding country.
A long ami iighly instructive sermon was
preached hy Darlington Hoo pes. Of West
Chester, in which he rxplunded the Qua
ker doclrinn ut love aud charity toward
all, enforcing his remarks by cOpious quo
thtiOns from tn" Scrip urcs. Several pas
sagcs in The B bic were Interpreted ac-
| cOrding To that Spiritual light which
Friends believe "Enhghteneth every man
that cometh into tine world" aud his
bearers were tcrvently eXhorted to obey
that light which IS the grace of God in
the human heart. One Illustration of the
\ effect Of th, obedience upon daily life.
WAS sOmew at striking and certainly very
| fOrcibe. Tie speaker said, in substance,
! that ahcn We do what our highest sense
of duty aud love toward our fellow men
| demanded, there WAS never any following
rcmOf,c or regret. but the whole mind
| and conscience was at peace. on the
other hand, if we give way to the feelings
OF resentment, retaliation or revenge
toward our fellows, We feel attcrwardl
that our conduct needs great deal Of cx-
PLANTATION and Justification to satisfy our
selves aud others Of the proprlety of what
we had done. 4 very general expression
of satisfaction among Friends present,
with the remarks Of the speaker, were
manifest at the close of the meeting. &C.,
