Terrible Explosion in Washington.
Building at the Arsenal Blown Up—
Seven Persons Killed and Several Others
Severely Injured.
Wahuuoton, Dec. 18, 1805.
An explosion took place this afternoon about
two o’clock in a small building situated at the
Arsenal, and in which workmen were engaged in
sorting ammunition, removing cartridges, Ac.,
which was most terrible ana disastrous in its
effects. The force- of the explosion was felt at
remote distances in the city.
Seven persons are reported killed and several
others are so badly hurt that their recovery is
deemed impossible. They aro all employes,
who have formerly been in the array, and who
had been given work at the Arsenal.
The house iu which the explosien took place
was domolished, and soon became a main of
flames.
The exertions of the firemen, who were soon
at the scene of the disaster, extinguished the
flames of tho ruined building, and thus pre
vented a conflagration, which woald have
iroved very calamitous, as other buildings near
]y were stored with ammunition.
The following parties are known to have
been killed:
Jeremiah Mahony, Patrick Jiiordan, James
Moran, Michael McDermot, John Steely,
Marshal Whitely, John Melton and Peter Gar-
iehey.
The Two Hundred and Fourteenth Pennsyl
vania regiment was on duty at that post, and
rendered valuable assistance.
The bodies of some of those injured are torn
in a horriblo manner.
Gen. Mercer on Trial for Murder.
Brigadier-General Hugh W. Mercer,
of the late Confederate army, is now on
trial before a militarv commission, at
Savannah, charged with the *’murder of
seven Union soldiers.” It will be re
membered by many of our citizens that
a battalion then known as “galvanized
Yankees,” while on duty near llardoe*
ville, on the Charleston and Savannah
railroad, conspired to desert from the
Confederate to the Federal forces.—
Through information from some of the
men engaged in the conspiracy, the plan
failed; the entire battalion was disarmed,
the members imprisoned, and seven of
the prominent ringleaders were tried be
fore a court martial, found guilty of de
sertion aud shot. Gen. Mercer is now
arraigned before a court martial, and
charged with tho murder of those men,
who were guilty of the highest offence
known to the regulations and laws of
war.
The foregoing we clip from the Con
stitutionalist. We think our neighbor is
iu error. It was not near Hardeeyille
that the “galvanized Yankees” conspired
to desert, but near Lawton’s Farm, seven
miles from Savannah, just about one
year and one week ago. We were tem
porarily on duty with General Mercer at
the time, acting ordnance officer, receiv
ed the arms of the battalion, the mem
bers of which, instead of being imprison
ed, built the pontoon bridges by which
the Confederate forces left the city a few
hours previous to its occupation by Gen
eral Sherman’s army. The men were
not si lot by General Mercer’s order, hav
ing been found guilty of desertion only;
but for a conspiracy to murder the Con
federate pickets, in order that they might
esef^o to the Federal lines. There are
scores of men in this city to-day that are
conversant with these facts—men whose
word will bo taken in any court of ius
t|ce.—Augusta Transcript of Dec. 22d.

Southern Items.
A Most Audacious RonnKRY.—On
Friday night a party of thieves entered
the yard of Mr. Edward Gallalier, on the
corner of Broad and Marbury streets,
and deliberately tore away, with ohisels
and other implements, the ohimnoy place
immediately adjacent to the street, thus
affording them an easy and sure entrance
into the store.
This dono they possessed themselves
of numberless packagos of handkerchiefs,
cases of ladies’ and gentlemen’s shoes;
lots of calicoes aud worsted, and an iron
safe containing, as Mr. G. informed us,
several thousand dollars in gold and sil
ver.
To assist them, the thieves brought in
to requisition a truck and wagon, or curt,
by means of which they have thus far
made secure their booty.
How this bold theft was accomplished,
so near the street, without detection, is
to our mind incomprehensible.
The truck was found on the river, and
the wagon was tracked a short distance
from the store, then lost. Tho police,
however, are on the alert, and aro mak
ing diligent, and, we hope it may prove,
successful search.for the robbers.
This is by far the most audacious rob
bery that has ever been committed in
our city for some time. Surely some
thing ought to be done to put a stop to
the rapid inoreose of crime, which is
fast becoming a part and parcel of every
day’s events.—Chronicle and Sentinel 23d.
Found Dead in a Well.—Capt. Thos.
C. Slattery who kept a grocery store on
Monroe street, near tho Market House,
has been missing since Wednesday night
last. His family and friends were in ig
norance of his fate until yesterday about
12 o’clock, when his body was taken
from the well in the rear of the store.
He is supposed to have fallen into the
well sometime in the night, and being
unable to get out, thus came to a terrible
death. IIo was son in-law of Mr. Jacob
Luther, and has long resided in this oity.
IIo was a mombej of the Irish Greys, of
tho 6tli Alabama, and became Capt. be
fore the close of the war. He was a gal
lant soldier, and liked by those who
know him.— Mont. Adt\, 24/4-
Gen. B hannan’s Policy.—Although
General Brannan lias not been in our city
but a few days, the policy pursued has
won for him the respect and regard of
our citizens. The prompt measures he
has taken to preserve the pnblic peace,
have received tho universal approval of
the people. The disarming of the negroes
was a moaourc noouaniu j iov ilio publio
safety—necessary for the public good.
And the efficient manner in which it was
done, shows that tho General under
stands well how to carry out a warlike
plan when conceived.
The freedmen have now learned that
there is a power in our midst which it
Will be dangerous for them to trifle with,
and which will easily put down any im
proper spirit or movement on their
part.—Chonicle & Sentinel 23(/.
Inoreasb op Population.—We learn
