Novel Explosion.

Mr.. George w. Strong, living at Lo-
gan, Ohio, bought, some time since, a
new cook stove. After it had been in
use few days, Mrs. S. kindIed fire in
the stove preparatory to getting supper,
one evening, and as she was about feav-
ing, terrible explosion took place, blow
ing pots, kettles, stove-lids, &C., about
the room promiscuously, and creating a
great sensation in the neighborhoOd, but
luckily, doing no further damage.
1t was afterward ascertained that the
explosion was caused by powder which
had been used in mining the coal, which
becoming damp was not ignited when
the blast was set off. This powder, by
some means got into Mr.. SIS coal pile,
and thence into the stove, with the result
above stated.
Mr.. 5. states that the stove is re-
markably heavy and strong one. If it
had been one of the light stoves, now in
common use, the consequence might
have been very serious.
The name of this stove is the "Sensa-
tion," said to be the best in use, and sold
exclusively by G. II. Stafford, Somerset,

EDITOR PRESS: While we respectful
ly decline both preeept and example in
the downward fights of our theological
(?) and saturnalian friend, NJ. K, yet we
take occasion to state that if our readers
refer to Webster's Unabridged Diction-
airy, page 1917, they will find the defini-
tion of the word wine to be "the express
ed juice Of grapes, usually the fermented
juice;" and, by referring to Aristotle,
Pliny, Columella and Plutarch, you will
find all these ancient historians agree
that the Greek word "oiUos" used in the
Apostolic ages referred to the "blood Of
the grape" which was used mostly in its
unfermented state; hence, to be right is
only to be consistent, and we will there
fore let our friend travel alone to his
chosen destiny, unaccompanied by
