j Yesterday morning about half-past; 10
o'clock- those of our citizens residing . and
being in the lower part of the city 4were
thrown into a wild state of excitement by a
tremendous explosion, which shook every
thing - for squares around, followed by a
rush of people from every direction towards
the1 locality from which the sounds em ;
anated, which - was Jon ' Front 'street
between Princess and y Chesnut,- where
the' facts in the case were "soon ascertained;
the most unfortunate, and heartrending of
which was the terrible injury sustained by"
Hr. Charles RSmithi, a son ot Mr. Ji .C
SmUh, ajdaxilerk in, the atore of -Messrs..
Giles 3s Mnrchison hardware and crockery
merchants. It seems that the latter gen
tlemen keep .: a few kegs of powder in
one or more iron boxes or chests on wheels.
These have been kept outside of the store,
and the one in question was on the sidewalk
against a tree just outside of the vacant lot
adjoining the store on the north, and a short
distance from the entrance to the crockery
store Tonne Smith was sent to get a keg
of powder out of the box, and had hardly
been missed from the store when the explo
sion took place. 1 . y i
Those who witnessed the explosion say
that the unfortunate young man was blown
some distance into the air and over some
intervening crockery .crates, falling face
downwards npon a pile of lumber near the
middle Of the street. ',; The force of the ex
plosion had nearly stripped his person of
clothing, and the few remnants were burn
ing and thus adding to his torturer Mr.
Miles Smith, a brother of Charlie, knowing
that the latter had gome to get the powder,
rushed to the scene" and was the first to
reach the side of the suffering youth, from
whose powder-blackened body he removed
the fragments of clothing, and then, as-,
sisted - by. some men from the neighbor
ing, stores,-1 he - was removed to the
establishment of Messrs. P. L. Bridgers
& Co., where he had the immediate surgi
cal attention so necessary at that critical
moment. He retained ' his ' consciousness
and bore his sufferings with great fortitude.
Some thirty or forty minutes after the ac
cident the government ambulance, which
had been kindly called into requisition by
Dr. Peckbam,' of the U." S. Marine. Hos
pital, who was present and assisting, drove
up, when the young man was placed upon
a litter and carefully and tenderly trans
ferred toe vehinle, when he was carried
to his borae, No. 608 Dock Street.
As we write, we are glad to learn, his
condition was as comfortable as could be
expected, and strong hopes are enter
tained ot his recovery.
The . concussion from the .explosion
played havoc with the glass wipdows of the
stores and other buildings in the neighbor-'
hood. Sach a crash and jingle of glass
was hardly ever heard before. One fine
plate glass window in the Murchison build
ing was smashed and some of the plaster
ing was knocked down. But it was oh the
opposite side of the street that the greatest
destruction ensued. There was hardly a
whole glass left in Mr. D, A Smith's
store, even those, in his back office being
shattered. Mr. Smith was in the act . of
selling an article to a customer from the.
country;; when; the explosion took place
and they were almost thrown from. their -j
feet. The customer made for the back
door in double-quick time and has not been
seen 'since. The store of Mr. Geo. R.
French & Sons is pretty badly riddled, and
the upward tendency of the concussion is
shown by the fact the glass in the win
dows on the fourth floor was all demolish-
ed. Two Jarge plate glasses. on the first
floor were smashed, and the Messrs. French
say it will take two hundred , dollars to re
place them.-' Messrs. McDougall & Bow
den, P. L Bridgers & Co.. and the South
ern Express office ' suffered . very little less,
Panes of glass were also shattered in the
residence of Mrs. Quince, just north of
Messrs; McDougall & Bowden's, and in the
office'of Dr. -Pigford, adjoining. On the
west side of the Btreet Mr. John Maunder 's
marble establishment, and the office of Dr.
J.Hi. Durham suffered pretty badly, not
only in the way of broken windows, but in
the knocking down of pkstering. A win
dow sash. in a rear room of Mr; Mauader's
establishment was broken up. , t . 4-
6a the wharf the explosion created a
perfect-panio among the draymen 'and
others," and the actions of a badly demor
alized colored individual, who ran down
the street shouting "More powder! "More
powder! added fresh apprehension and
increased the speed - of they panic-stricken
fugitives, -v.; , . ; : - ,' ;
The cause of the explosion Is a profound
mystery. Messrs. Giles & Murchiion had
taken every precaution to prevent any ac
cident.' The powder, in hermetically sealed
kegs, was kept in the Iron safes alluded to,
and they safes placed outside of the build
ing, ' as a matter of precaution in case ' of
flre? -Then one; key to the sates was , kept
in the hands of the firm andthe other placed
in the keeping of the Chief of the Fire De
partment, which arrangement had the sanc
tion ot- the y authorities. 5 Joyloose pow
der .was v allowed j; alljiot i itC .being
in.whole packages. , The box or safe has t
capacity for six -kegs, but it 1 is' thought
there wen only three or four In it-at the
Umev one of which did not explode, being'
blown ; against, the crockery crates: . The
irontiox was completely demolished. . .
It wai' reported that ; the wounded youth
was smoking a cigarette ;wheh; he went to!
the" safe; but this is positively deniedi as it
ia well known that he never smokes! ,!He'
told his brother after the accident that he
did ; not xknowy how it fc occurred. Great
sympathy was felt for bim on all sides, and
frequent were the inquiries, during the af
ternoon as' to' hiS condition. s v' ;? 4 -w.i
Crowds remained In the yidhity 'of the
scene of the accident during a good portion
of the day.; ! Capt. .W. W ,Carraway of
