At half-nhst 10p. m. to-day tho magazine OF
the Cambria Coal and Mining Company blew up,
containing Bovonty barrels Of nitro.glycorino and
70o barrels Of giant powder: The scene of the
disaster ia situato go1le miles or 80 from the
village, tho inhabitants Of which, on hearing the
fearful noiHo, rushed madly from their houses,
believing that it waa IN earthquake, or sonlo
other torrible conVulRion of nature. Strange to
say, tho shaking Of tho oarth aud, Of course, the
houses, continued for como seconds after the
e1ploBion, thereby strengthening many in tho
beiof that it VAS really an earthquake; and,
amid the crash OF brokon windows and the crieH
OF the frightened women md children, tho noise
was little abort Of Pandemonum,
TRACE OF tho building was found to bo ontiroly
oblstorated, and for d distance of 500 or GOO
yardn around the earth Was torn into chasms OF
from sixty to seventy feet deep; hugo trooa
woro torn up by the roots. many being hurled to
q great distance, whilo others, seomingly over
taken by tho immense mnBses Of earth md rocks,
were buried almost whore they grow.
rho causo OF the explosion, ls believed in the
neighborhood, is that somo Of tho young mon OF
the village had obtained an entrance into tho
tho Fourth Of july that either thoir candlo or
matches came In contact With somo OF the looao
powder; and honco tho loss Of their own lives
and tho destruction Of much valuable property.
Ihree mon Tere seon in tho vicinity OF tho
magazine shortly after sundown on Thursday
eyouing, but wero not recognized On account Of
tue growing darkness. It Is difficult at present
to lnd out who is missing and who ia not az
many OF the young mon who have been working
at Datehyilfe had their rotations living elsewhoro
and perhaps have gono to thcn for vacation

No trhcos havo got boon discovered OF any

God knows the mystery or the sequel of
II all. We only waited for mamma to come,
and for baby and myself to get strong,
then we went back to my old home in the
East. I had many little babies after that
but never one quite like Malcolm. Char
ley made fortune, and still goes to and
fro, West and East. The railroad makes 1t
handy, suppose, but I never had any do
sire TO travel.
Oh yes, I was going TO say something
about the Indian question. Well, i GER
tainly think those great fiendish Indian
monsters should be punished; but 1t is
surely best to treat with tenderest care the
gentle, melancholy squaws; and maybe 1t
would be better to not be too cruel with the

track of moonlight on quiet lake,
Whose small waves silver sanded shore
Whisper of peace, and with the low winds make
Such harmonies as keep the WOO Is awake,
And listening all night lorg for their sweet sake;
A green waved slope Of meadow, hovcred o'er
by angel-troops lilies, swaying light
On viewless stems, with folded wings Of white;
Numbering stretch of mountain land, far seen,
Where the low westering day, with gold and green,
Purple and amber, softly blended, fills
The wooded wales. and melts among the hills;
vine-frnged river, winding to its rest
On the calm bosom of a stormless sea,
Bearing alike upon its placid breast,
with earthly flowers and heavenly stars impressed,
The hues of time and etornity;
Such are the pictures which the thought Of thee,
friend, Notwithstanding the keen pain
OF thy departure and our sense Of loss
Requting with the fullness of thy gain.
Lo! on the quiet grave thy life borne cross,
Dropped only at its side, methinks doth shine,
OF thy beatitude the radiant sign
No sob of grief, no wild lament, be there,
To break the Sabbath Of the holy air.
But, in their stead, the silent-breathing prayer
OF hearts still waiting for rest like thine
Oh, spirit redeemed! Forgive us, If henceforth,
With sweet and pure similitudes Of earth,
We keep thy pleasant memory freshly green,
OF loves inheritance priceless part,
Which fancys self, in reverent awe is seen
To paint, forgctful Of the tricks OF art,
with nencil dinned lone in neiers Vf tne heart.
