INlSaiOlk at "Norfolk, and the trial of the pri
soner, it is supposed,will take place in June.
Dr. Bigelow; of Alexandria, one of the
members of the Grand Jury, who reached
Baltimore ' this morning, says, the state
ment• that Mr. J. Gillingham, foreinan
of the Grand Jury, declines serving
as a member of that' body, after
bearing the opening charge of the Judge
Underwood, is incorrect. Mr; Gillingham
had never served on a jury before, and sim
ply requested to be excused from acting as
foreman, stating as his reason that he was
afraid he was not competent — to fill - that
position. He made no objection whateVer
to serving as a member of the jury.

The Mizardville Powder Explosion.
The Hartford Times of the Bth has the
following details regarding the recent
terrible calamity at Hazardville, Conn.:
"The explosion took place in the press
mill, a central one among the many scat
tered buildings devoted to the manufac
ture of powder in the valley known as
Hazardville. This mill was completely
annihilated, not a foundation stone or a
piece of timber remaining. Blackened and
broken timbers, blown to a distance of
eighty rods from the spot, and the black
ened and ghastly fragments of what had
one been human beings—here a finger,
there a foot or a hand—attested the terrific
force of the explosion. Some of the bodies
may have been thrown into the adjoining
pond, which will be drained to-day for the
purpose of finding them.
"As usual, the amount of powder that
exploded is difficult for newspaper re
porters to obtain.„ One version has it four
tons, and others fifteen and seventeen tons.
We believe the amount to have been over
ten tons. Certaingly the shook, plainly
felt in this city, eighteen miles distant, and
the vast pillar of solid white smoke ascend
ing to the skies and - lainly seen at a dis
tance of twenty mile, would indicate a
large explosion. A little mill adjoining the
press mill, and containing two tons of
powder, is said to have exploded with the
others.
"We learn that the 'press mill' has been
undergoing repairs, with some changes,and
that this was the first batch of powder put
under the screw since the repairs. Doubt
less this repairing had left some unseen bit
of metal, stone or other substance in a
place where friction or force elicited a spark.
The mill was a heavily-framed wooden
building, twenty-five by fifty feet, in which
the mixture that had been run through the
'wheel mill' was taken to be pressed. This
mixture, consisting of saltpetre, charcoal
and brimstone, comes from the wheel mill
in a mealy condition, possessing the full
power of powder ;-and it is placed under a
beavy iron screw-press to be pressed into
solid cakes.
"The explosion set the wooded slopes up
the adjoining hill on fire, and the flames
originating in several places, spread rapidly
toward two other mills on the other side of
the bill. From this source the danger was
so great that the whole effective force of
Colonel Hazard's employes was put in
requisition to extinguish the flames. This,
by hard work, and the superior bravery
and devotion of one man, whose courage
called back the rest when disposed to run,
was finally done, when the fire had ap
proached to a point within five rods of one
of the enlarged mills. How men can be
induced to work in powder mills seems to
be n mystery. At any price the risk of life
is too great to be hazarded. Yet there are
plenty of applications, and the prices it is
said, are not on an average over $2 a day."
'THE "HINGLISH ` HOYSTER."—The sub
ject of encouraging the• cultivation of the
oyster in English waters is before the House
of Commons. 'A commission appointed for
the purpose enumerates the coasts .of Kent
and Essex,= chiefly the estuaries of the
'Thames, Clew Bay, in Ireland, and portions
- of the _Scottish coast as eligiblitzOlaces for
oyster-beds.
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-:
Tax Cameo° TtilirrEr..—The work of ex
cavation in the Chicago, lakei tunnel is
progressing surely, although during the,
past few days, owing to an escane and es
plosion of gas in that portion reaching from
tke shore, there has been considerable delay
in operation. Once or twice the men have
been in great danger, but, fortunately, they
sustained no serious injury. Arrangements
have been made by which it is hoped explo
sions will be hereafter avoided. The gas,
as it escapes from the fissures, will be ig
nited, and then no accumulation of gas can
take place. The distance reached up to Fri
day evening from the shore end was 5,986
feet, which seven hundred and six feet
beyond a mile. From the crib toward shore
876 feet had been accomplished, leaving
about 3,600 feet vet to go, which will be
finished by the Fall if no unforeseen accident
occurs.
THE authorities of Augusta, Ga., have
forbidden the freedmen - from strewing
flowers on the graves of the Union . soldiers.
The colored people assembled recently at
one of their school houses near the Ceme
tery, for the purpose, and well provided
with flowers, wreaths and banners. Their
teachers, white and black, accompanied
them, and they , marched to deposit their
Offerings upon the graves of the nation's
dead. The procession was met at the gate
of the Cemetery by the Mayor of the city
and a strong force of pollee, and despite the
entreaties of the teachers and thenegroes,
was refused admission. ,
A TRIMEBLE tragedy took place recently
in a Court room at St. Louis. A woman
named Bright had been fined $lOO for com
mitting adultery, and was about paying the
fine when her husband drew a revolver
and , shot her through the head, inflicting
injuries of - which she died in the evening.
After shooting his wife, Bright turned the
pistol against his own bosom. but was
foiled in his attempt at suicide.
