burst °pelt,' as if shaken by firi.earthquake.
• It was soon ascertained •to, have proceed
.ed from an explosion of poAderot the cor
nei of Fourteenth and Orange streets, and '
in that vicinity. the destruction beggars de
scription. An earthquake could not have
caused greater destruction. . .
Three large teams, containing 450 kegs
of powder, the whole estimated at five tons
'Were on the.way from the mills.of Dupont
do Co. to the warf, for the purpose of being
shipped. In • passing along Fourteenth
street, the last wngon was oppoSite Orange
street, and immediately in front of Bishop
Lee's elegant residence, the other wagons
,being.in advance, the head one about sixty
.feet beyond. It is not known which of the i
wagons first exploded. or how the powder l
'l 3ecnre i 3 ignited. Nothing but fragments re-i
Main of wagons, horses and drivers.
Bishop Lee's house was terribly shatter
ed. The roof was lifted up bodily, and bro
ken into fragments, the front wall blown out ;
,the floors broken up, and every window and l
door torn away. The beautiful garden, and
even the summer-house, well known to eve
ry visitor to these churming grounds, were
'destroyed.
The Bishop and his family were fortu
pately
absent, attending the Convention of
the diocese, in St. Andrew's church, a few i
silqn,res off. A female servant was in the
ousp, with a child. The latter was slight
y hurl.; the servant is badly cut. but is not
dead,,as was erroneously . reported.
thrca,houses on Orange street, below
Fourteenth, were completely destroyed.—
Of one frame house, not a portion remains ,
standing. .
A young Irilliiiian; boarding with John
:McLaughlin - was fatally, injured and died
.short,ly after. McLaughlin was very bad
ly cut and his, clothes torn, olf. His wife is
very seriously injured, and her child, about
two years of age ivas missing ind .if ivies
supposed had been killed, when it N . v:i6sub,
sequently taken from the Mier uninjUre:d.
'The families of Wm. McCoy and Richard
Reynolds, living in the other houses are all
snore or less injured. She wife of the lat- /
ter quite seriously.
The residence of James Canby, corner of
Market and Fourteenth streets was terribly
shattered and will have to come - down. The
inmates-were badly cut by the glass rend
'falling plaster. The brick stables st,nd barn
together with the carriage house and fine
garden, were all destroyed.
On the opposite- side of the street, the vie
-
gam *residence of James P. Price, Was so
much injured that it will have to be rebuilt.
On the south of Fourteenth str , et, the
barn and stables of Joseph Price, John H.
Price, and James E. Price, were complete
ly destio3cd. In the latter, Robert [lee
ry, n colored man was killed.
The following were also killed : ---.John
Re ese,Thotnas Talleyand Thomas Hughes,
employed as drivers of the teams.
Thti true; along the street and in the gar
dens bordering were stripped of their leaves
and. some torn ,up by the roots. Fragments
of the wagons horses and drivers, were blown
in:ittrious directions. A human arm was
fottrid at
,a distance of 300 feet; one of the
driiers was blown over the trees and the
fragments of his body lodged on the shore
of the: Brandywine, which runs behind Bish
op Lee's grounds. •
the walls and other objects in the
• r •
houses Injured by - the explosion, were dri v
ken towards it, instead of from it. The ap
pearance of the houses shows.that the great
vacuum caused by the explosion had caus
ed the. air in the hoUses to burst them. In
Nr. Price's house, the heavy folding doors
Vetween the ,parlors, which were closed at
"the time, were forced violently from the
hinges, and carried to the end of the room.
The windows and doors in every case were
driven outwards,
The tire of one wagon, weighing 100 lbs.
was thrown a distance of 200 feet, and a
, fragment of another tire,4 inches broad, was
driven, directly through the trunk of a large
tree. Though nothin can be found of the
Wagons except Small - fragmenis the places
where they stood is marked on the bed of the
explosion, has beeen sunk nearly two feet.
Nearly all the houses along Orange street
' as far as Tenth have the glass broken and
the plaiter of the interior shattered from the
walls. t.
'On Market st. adjoining
,the residence of
1. E. PriOe,. 00 el e gant k dwelliolga of John

were gretitly injureti iodltte furnitdie and
glassware brakep.. Seven dwellings on
Thirteenth itilieef,Valled Bright's row, were
much tihmaged-the windows shattered and'
the plaster dettiched froth the walls and cell:.
The,e4lo§ion caused ,a terrible sensation
• fhroughout the city. In the neighborhood the
people rushed from the hotises to great terror.
A gentleman riding on horseback some dis
tance from the head of the Wagon . felt the
ground trembling, and at the sdrite moment
• was lifted from his 'horse, and'seeing
