" Did any of you mcssmatcs, ever know
old Jack Ringbolt ?" asked Sam.
"I've heard of him," replied one of the
sailors.
" continued Sam, "he was a
chum of mine the first voyage I ever went
to sea, and he used to be the life of the
whole ship. There was not a port in the
wolrd, I bt.lieve he had not been to, and if
any sailor ever knew "the ropes" it was
Jack Ringbolt, for there wasn't anything
but what he Was up to. He said he came
home once in one of our frigates—it was
a long time ago—after a three
.years'
cruise, in which he had served as captain
of the fore-top. The frigate arrived at
Philadelphia, and he was paid oft' therg.
In tho7e days there was no railroads; and

The coach soon after slopped at a tav

Jack to see if his hat really had the magi

THE DREADFUL EXPLOSION AT NEW YORK,
TERRIBLE LOSS OF LIFE.
The Now York papers of yesterday
bring us additional particulars of the de
plorable catastrophe in that city on Mon
day morning, resulting from the explosion,
about 8 o'clock, of a 200 horse power boi
ler in the printing press and machine shop
of A. 1). Taylor & Co. 5 and :3 Hague
street, near Pearl. lay the explosion 'the
whole building, which was six stories in
height, seas actually lifted from itsfoun
dation to a height of six fret, and when it
reached that elevation, it tumbled down,
crushing in its ruins a vast number. So
great was the force or the explosion, that
fragments of' the building were scattered
in every direction ; the windows in the
neighborhood were broken ; and a larun
portion of the front wall of the fated build
ing was thrown with tremendous power
into the houses opposite. In !lief the buil
ding was completely wrecked, hardly one
brick being left standing on another, 1% it II
the exception of a solitary piece of wall
eight or ten feet high. The force of the
explosion dashed in the windows, frames
and doors of several of the adjoining
build
ings, and seriously endangered the walls
of hull & Sons' largo soap and candle fac
tory, which adjoined the ruined building.
The windows and doors across Vague'
street, and in the rear of houses in Pearl
street, wore b!:rst in as ilwith cannon shot,
and everything around indicates that the
explosion was one of the most violent that
could occur. So powerful was the explo
sion that the shock, like the trembling of
an earthquake, was felt_ in some of the
stores in Broadway, a distance, in..a direct
' lino, of about a quarter of a mile, and was
probably felt at a greater distance. The
!floors of Messrs. Hull & Sons' building'
' were lined up, and the thick walls, both
those adjoining Mr. Ta) lox's establishment
and those fronting on the next street, were
bulged considerably, although built of un
usual thickness, with reference to the pos. I '
sibility of fire or other contingency.
The first and second stories of the buil
ding were occupied by A. B. Taylor & Co.,
as was also the basement, and the other
stories by Messrs. Burr & Co., hat-body
manutheturers, and the number of persons
in the employment of the two firms was
about 120, all of whom were at work at
the time of the explosion. There were
also several females employed in the fitc
tory of Burr & Co., but onl y two of them
had arrived, and they it is be lieved escaped.
The fireman had started the fires under
the boiler at an earlier hour than usual,
on accewint of its getting cold while stand-
ing unused over Sundae, and hardly had
steam hetn raised, and !notion communi
cated to the dialling, when the explosion
took pince. The bolter had Leen manu
faacttn•ed about two years since for Mr.
Taylor, as he stated in his evidence before
the coroner, hut for some reason he did
not take it, and it was sent to Havanna!'
where it was used as a steamboat toiler,
but not generating steam litst etp.ugli

just a minute—we can stand it—the man's
alive," the firemen replied. And they did
stand it, and saved the man, though them
selves much scorched and nearly suffoca
ted.
In the front of the building, on Hague
street, men were diligently removing the
hrielts, voices being heard underneath,
calling for help. Two men were rescued
hero at about 12; 2 , injured severely but
not mortally. The cries of others were
still audible.
Mr. C. 0. Jessup narrowly escaped with
his life. What became of him at the mo
ment of the explosion he could not tell,
but on coining to himself he found himself
in die eastern part of the building, with
much of the ruins laid upon his shoulders
and head, but his Bret comparatively at
liberty. 13v struggling he freed himself,
and when we saw him, though much brui
sed about the head, had sufficiently recov
ered to give the names of nearly all the
persons employed in 13urr & Co.'s estab
lishment. llis clothes were mostly torn
off his back.
11fere follows a list of the names, occu
pation and residence of about ;50 persons
~tiho were taken front the ruins, 10 of
whom were dead, and several others inor
wOunded.]
One boy was saved by the lodging of
some thick boards angularly against the
wall above him, thus keeping the bricks
from striking him in their descent. While
in this condition he could thrust his baud
through a crevice and shake the hand of
another boy. We believe both were final
ly rescued.
One of the must painful cases was that
of a boy, named 'findle, we understood.
He was Ibund alive, but his feet and legs
were so firmly wedged in that it was ne
cessary to move an immense
,fieap of tim
ber and bricks extricate 'hint. While
in this condition he was fed with bread and
milk, and made as comfortable us possible,
while the slow work ofdigging him out went
on. We fear he was not saved after all,
for about 10 o'clock in the evening he
ceased talking, and it was thought that he
would die soon.
The two females, the only ones who had
arrived, were rescued. On e o f th em w as

From the Tribune.
The scene of the station-house in Oak

So painful was the scene, and so touching

Iv every one who has thus far been res-
cued, whether alive or dead, had his shirt
sleeves rolled up, showing that he had al

Mr. Edward Chapin,' th e book-keeper of
Mr. Taylor, is among the persons saved.
Mr. Taylor employed tiftv-seven men, and

It is impossible that any person can be alive

the last person rescued while living.
