Terrific Explosion from Benzine. LOSS OF LIPMI. Yesterday afternoon, about half past five, a terrific 6.7:- plosion occurred in the Twentieth ward, from the use of benzine, in Wright's japan varnish manufactory. The building stood on harebell defier, between Meetier and Diamond street, and between Sixth and Seventh, and was a three-story brick, with a two-story back building. The building was originally intended for two dwelling houses, but was afterward converted into a factory, fdr the manufacture of japan varnish Between the main and back building was a double partition wall. The fur run and kettles for boiling the varnish were in the let ter place. In the front building was a large tank for re ceiving the varnish after it was boiled, and which was conveyed through a pipe. At the time of the accident, varnish was being boiled in one of the kettles, about six feet in diameter. The content, of the kettle took lire, and erodild a moet terrific explosion, which made a loud report, shaking all the houses for squares, ands mpletely demolishing the whole factory, nothing being left stand ing except the partition wall between the two buildings. At the time of the accident only two men were in the apiece, one of whom was Mr. James L. 'Wright, the pro prietor—a young unmarried man, about 20 years of age, -who has succeeded his father in the business, the latter laving been known in this city ter many years as a cele brated manufacturer of jkpan varnish. The other per .eon In the factory was a German employee named Adam Herbott, who was sitting on the floor cleaning a pan near the large kettle in which the varnish was being in the second story of the back building. Her butt wet blown out of the building, and fell eu the ground a distance of about twenty-lire yards. When he recovered from the shock he raised himself up by means of a fence, and supported himself until as sistance arrived. Be was immediately conveyed to the adrug. sten. of Pr. Ferns, Sixth end Germantown road, where his injuries were attended to, after which he was conveyed to his residence In Farmer street. near Girard Avenue, Ly two of the Nineteenth-ward officers. Dr. alelfrich was then summoned, when he was found to have sustained severe internal injuries, besides spraining his -ankle and being burned in a in id shocking manner about the head, neck, and bands. The physician thinks his life may be eared, although his situation is very cri tical At the time of the exi.lo.4olt, Mr. Wright, the proprie tor, was down stairs in the trout part of the building. About twenty minutes after the accident his body was :found buried under the ruins, where he had been shock ingly crushed. When lifted up, he breathed once or twice, but was unable to speak. and expired almost im mediately. The body was taken to the establishment of Mr. Philip A. Schuyler, undertaker 9 near by, and sub seunently removed to the rc..§.l.lenc. of ide fsther, iu tfew Market street, above CallowhilL The 'bricks and other portions of the ruin were hurled •by the explosion several *mares, falling on roofs, in yards, &o , but, fortunately, no QM, W£l. seriously injured. A son of Lieut. Jacoby, of the Twentieth ward police, .who resides in Sixth street, a Mee feet from where the factory stood, was struck with a brick and slightly injured. The varnish in the kettle took fire and flowed wrer the ruins, setting firs to the work and causing an .alarm to be rung by the State House bell. The firemen were promptly on the epvt, and soon extinguished the limes before any damage had been dmetothe surround ing prop. rty. The Fire Marshal was soon at the scene, but it was impossible last evening for him to procure any satisfac tory account of the accident, Mr. Wright, the proprietor, ;being killed, and the German only being employed to do the hauling forthe eataldishment. The latter bad never done any work about the place until yesterday afternoon, when he was assisting. He stated to the Fire Marshal that all he knows about the horrible affair is, that Mr. Wright was down stairs and he up stain', near the kettle containing the boiling - varnish; be heard a kind of hissing noise, followed by a largo blank and a loud explosion , he saw the building falling all round him, the roof going up, and himself moving through the air with great rapidity. He lust all recollection, and, upon recovering, narrated the whole thin. ' as if it had been a dream. The German states that Mr. Wright bad always used turpoutiutt in the manufacture of varnish until within a day or two since, when be determined to try the experiment of using benzine. Mr. W. informed him that he knew of the dangers attending the use of this combustible, but thought that, with proper care ant attention, all acci dents might be avoided. The kettle u Welt exploded contained some two or three barrels of benzine. So far, the precise ranse of the accident can only be the sub ject of conjecture, but that the explosion was occasioned by benzine there can be no doubt. Coroner Conrad will hold an inquest this morning on the body of Mr. Wright. Public Amusements. Yr.

Anniversary Festival of the Young Men's Christian Association The listriversary festival of the Young Men's Christian Association of this city, which was celebrated at the Musical Fund Hall last evening, was one of the most pleasing social entertainments of the kind that we have ever attended. Much of the credit of this success is due to the good sense displayed by thom to whom the ar. tenements for it were entrusted. The large hall, which, we must say, never exhibited its beautiful interior to better advantage, was tilled with just a sufficient num ber to impart a social character to the entertainment, and comfort to the grate. The platform was tastefully decorated with tw o Immense Ameritalli begs, and along the two tables, which extended centrally the entire length of the hall, seating 2to persons at one time, the colors, of the Union, iu the form of diminutive flags, imparted a patriotic fragrance to the tempting 'viands which graced them. The supper itself may be best described se an elegant collation, including tea and coffee, and concluding with ice creams, jellies, and confectionery. Most of the pro visions wet° presented for the occasion by individuals, and as their preparation was conducted by a number of the lady friends of the Association. under the competent direction of Mrs, Rebecca Hammitt, the Mtpcilso of the festival was comparatively little. The proceeds realized trom the sale of tickets go into the fund for carrying on the general objects of the Association. Music by a quartet from Hembree Band, singing by the entire company, indulging in refrestuneuto, oinking addreseee and listening to them, jlTOMPlifklihg, Ewa mu tual conrereation, conetituted the acted programme of the evening, At half past seven o'clock precisely, amid strains of de licious music, the festivities of the evening were for mally initiated by Geerse H. Stuart, Esq., taking the chair at the stage-end of one of the tables. After all were helped, Mr. Stuart, in a few brief remarks, gave an outline of the work which the Aaaociatioa is now doing, especially among the soldiers. We need hardly add that Mr. Stuart graced his office, se chairman, in his usual ftlicitotta style, adding much to the life and spirit of the occasion, by his well-timed comments in in troducing the vsfrious speakers as the entertainment pro gressed. At the table, a blessing was invoked by the Rev. Mr. Sterritt, of !he 'Reformed Pre,..byterian Church. After copper, the clergy mounted the platform, anti prayer was offered hy. the Rev. Mr. Slide. The fist speaker of the evening was the Rev. Dr. Brainerd, of a Old Pine-street Church," whose tee/arks were, as is his wont on such occasions, exceedingly hu morous- Re was followed in a neat speech by the Rev. Anthony Atwood, D. D., who was snceeeded by the. Ray. Daniel March, the newly-installed pester of Clinton, etreet Presbyterian Church. His speech was a very a ppy platform effort, and was received with evident satisfaction. The next speaker was the Rev. Thleshaut Gregg, D. D., of Dublin. His address was mainly de voted to the relatione oC Irebscel to the Religious world, °thee frakoit iuldroeses followed, after which, at a late hour, a number . of uncut fancy cakes were presented to sonie atilt snore distinguished guests, which constituted a happy finale to the festivities of the evening. lIIIRLBURT & BILODIIEAD'S OILS.
