Henry l.. Foreman. 4 young gentleman
who hal been employed In q clerical ca.
paeity at the sutro Tunnel for moro than
= year. met with q serious and very pain
full accident on Sunday. Mr.. Foreman
vent into the store.houss TO box soms
electric exploders which werc TO he re-,
| turned to San Francisco. rs they had moi
| proved a success In the tunnel. The sx'
plodsrs were at the bottom 81 = case In
| which three strings Of giant powder ex-
ploders were lying. Mr.. Foreman had re-
| moved two of these strings and hung them
ON the wall aud WAS carrying the third for
| the same purpose, when. II Ia supposed,
he stumbled and the e~xplodors struck
| heavily against the wall and went of.
| The attention Of Superintendent Raw was
attracted to the stors-housc by the sound
| Of the explosion and seeing part Of ths
| roof and one side VI the building fly
| ing into the air. Rushing In, Mr..
Raw found Foreman lying on the
| floor insensible. The flesh IN ths inside
VI hi. left arm. from the wrist " the
| elbow, was completely torn of. leaving the
bone exposed. His face WAS also terribly
laccratea. both eyes being closed and his
skin iill,l with fragments Of the copper
casing Of the exploders. Below his neck
with the exception Of the left arm. his
body was uninjured, showing that he must
have held the eIploders On 4 level with his
face at the time they went of. Tho doe
tors up to the present writing have notex'
amined hi. eyes 10 ascertain the extent to
which they are injured. as his nsrvou:
system 10 already 90 shaken that IL would
b. dangerous to give him more pain. lie
will forever lose the use Of his arm. Mr.
Foreman has been In feeble health for .
long time and the only hope 10 that his
pluck. Of which he has plenty. will pull
him through.
Mr.. Foreman was connected with the
Signal Bureau at Washington. and with
the Dudley Observatory at Albany. N. Y,
for some time previous TO his arrival In
Nevada. Az an astronomer, he ranked de-
servodly high for 30 young a man. and We
doubt II lac had IN equal as q mathemati-
clan In this State. At Sutro he was
engaged as t~ims-kespsr and had also charge
of the storshouse and blasting batteries.

The USE OF TROOPS DANGER0Us.-1o the
Editor of the Tribune: Sir,--In my opinion
the action LOT the President in sending
troops unsolicited to Louisiana and Florida,
for thepurpose of protecting the returning
boards In the. performance of their duties,
is q most dangerous trespass2 upon the
rights OF the people, and o precedent fraught
with incalculabie evils to the peace and per-
petuity Of the Government. There is no
question as to the purity Of the motive
prompting this act, and very, little DOUBT
that fraud, violence, and bloodshed will be
prevented thereby. With that rare ocollr-
age and Judgment for which the soldier
President is conspicuous great trouble
has been foreseen, and g. the ounce Of pre-
vention . instantly applied but in this case
the remedy may come to be far worse than
the disease. The enemies OF the republic
may gain its control. With this bad prece-
dent set by d Republican, may not O Presi-
dent use the army in Massachusetts, Penn
sylyania, or any other State to mould q re-
turn In his own favor, under pretence of
preserving peace, upon PARTISAN allegations
OF fraud basefess and brazen Us those now
made In the South? There is great danger
