- Shortly after ten o'clock this morning, the real-dents of Nassau street, in tbe neighborhood or •Whltebonse <fc Co.'s glafi.9 cutting and enamelling eBtabiishment, situated at No. 5 and 7 ia that street, near Fulton Bt,,; were thrown into alarm by the report that an explosion had taken place at the premised referred to. The startling an­nouncement proved but too true : the still used for the distillation of fluoric acid, an artlclo used in the coloring of glass, exploded, and sad to re­late, Mr. Whltebonse tb̂ e senior partner of the firm, received such'Injuries as to result to his Bpeedy death. The facts of the inelancholly oc-carrance, by which a.fdnd family are. doprived of their head and.protector, arid the community of an eate^nied cltBeir, appeaFToT'biraa "foUowaTso" far, as our reporter could gather them In the cou-fusionand conflicting statements ever attending upon disasters of this character. About tbe time •we have abovestated, it appears EbatMr. 'White-house, Mr. Wmi Howard, hia partner, and the en. gineer, Mr. H. Coates Were In the front room of the third story of the building No. 7 : and in the jtear port of the same floor is a room in which vras the BtlU,set in a brick bed.the still being con-mected by a pipe to^bebobdenser which was plac-•dbutslde the window ion the roof of an adjoining .fcuBdw^Mr, Wbitehouie remarked to Mr. H,ow-•rdthat there w&san eseapetfrom the still, and Mr-W. being tjiepfirdon most familiar with the still, "went into the bapk roori^tC1 'see what was the matter.: Within :a riilnufe oritwo. those in the outer room,'>heard a sllgn^hissing noise, like the escape of ;steam, and linnipdiately volumes of poisonous gas evolved iri^the distillation of the fluor acid-, rolled .on^ X̂rOm the" back room..

| j c a l assistance was promptly in attendance, and Mr. W. was removed on a board to bis residence No. 41 Tillary street, wb? r e . n e expired shortly after reacting home.' Mr. Wbitehouse was abou,fe>| forty-five years of age, and leaves a wife and fami­ly to deplore his untimely end. r

The engineer was burned about the arm, but not dangerously, in his endeavors to help Mr. Wbitehouse, coming in contact with tho acid which covered tbe latter's clothes.. There was no damage of property worth mentioning, and tho rumors that some five persons were seriously in­jured, are quite unfounded-. •..-,

It was aome time after the accident that the still-room could be penetrated to examine as to the cause of the catastrophe, so dense and smffo. eating were the' noxious vapors with which It and the adjoining parts of the bnilding was fllledL An examination made by Mr. Howard, our re­porter and Others, with much- difficulty, for the above reason, disclosed;the fact that thegutta

Atelegaaph dispatch, was r^ceived-thia.morn^4 ing by the wife of Captain McGowan, Commander of the steamer Star of the West, stating that the steamer with the federal troops onboard arrived safely in Charleston Harbor. The troops were landed without opposition.

The dispatch gives no particulars—in the ab­sence of which it may be presumed that the South Carollnana did not fire into the steamer, and even If they did that It amounted to nothing.

BRUTALIY.—The returns of tbe lltn. precinct police of this morning contains the following: i

She was; brought to the station house and supplied with food, which she had net tasted for two days, and notice sent to the Commissioners of Charities, who sent her to the Hospital this morning."

Capt. Squires la immense on writing dispatches on the iniquity of drinking lager bier on Sunday. "Why did ho

FIVE SOUTH AFRH14N, ABORIGINES!

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.

The Secretary of the Treasury has advertised for pro-posfllsfpr the taking of the five million Treasury notes, under the Act of December last. The bids will be opeu-ed on the 19th of January.

The President has accepted Secretary. Thompson's re­signation. He, in a letter, says, that Thompson- is cer­tainly mistaken in alleging that no conclusion was reach­ed in the Cabinet as to sending troops to Fort Sumter without delay.

The only documents transmitted with the message yes­terday were the Commissioner's first loiter and tho reply, both previously published. '

The reported firing into the Star of tho West at Char­leston is true, beyond doubt.

DISTRESSING SDICIDE.—A poor lone womaui Mrs. McMullen, residing at 177 Hudson avenue learning tbe death of her husband who had gone into tho country in search of employment, com­bined with her destitute conditioo, so dishearten­ed her, that she resolved to end her troubles by taking* large doBe of laudanum on Tuesday night. The result of. course was fatal.

Coroner Horton held anintiueit upon the body yesterday afternoon, at which tho particular" cir:

lenmsfanocs under which the deceased woman came by her death were elicited. Sarah McMul­len, 81 years of nge, married, but without chil­dren, was irt.service with a family residing in Fort Greene Tlace, where she lea about 8 o'clock On Tuesday night, to visit her sister at -No;177-

|-gw4goa-*veuue-. At her sister's she complained of a sore fitierer, a felon or something of tliat na­ture, and said she would go out to tho doctor's and get something (or it. She proceeded to tho stove of Dr. Stowe in the avenue and purchased from Mrs. S^owe nine cents worth of laudtnum. She then returned to her sister's and swallowed the lautTniium. This wa3 about half-past 8 o'clock.' The sister, becoming alarmed, went for Dr, Stowe. but he being from homc.Mra. 8to wofrtmeand ad-minlstered. n t emetic. The drug, however^ IfacT done Its work, nnd at' half-past 9 o'clock she was dead.' The husband of tho deceased had gone to Ireland some time ago on business, and recently she received a letter apprising him of his dciuh, which intelligence natni-AUy exercised a most de-preeslng influence up~>n her mind and no doubt drove her to the commission ot'the rash preced­ing. Verdict, death by &uiclu>.

FarreL, gave his testimony, which by the ingenuity of tho lawyers was made to occupy four hours, and elicited precisely what was published before the examination was commenced. Yesterday it was resumed, nudJCapt. Waslom, of the 5th prectnetfwas examined. Tho investlgationjwill be con­tinued to-day, and may perhaps be terminated within tho lifetime of men now living. The case excites considera­ble interest, and the court-room is crowded with specta­tors; but thus far nothing differing materially from tho published accounts has been elicited.

ASSAULT— CROOKKB vs. CROOKF.R.—The parties to this suit are man and wife, living separate and apart, the lady doing business at No. 261 Fulton street, and supporting by industry four children, the fruits of their ill-starred union—the defendant residing in New York. The lady complains of annoyance from" the defendant and of actual personal vlolenco at his hands.. Tho complaint has been heard In part ere now. and at tho time it was arranged that tho charge should not be pressed, on the understand­ing that he would restore a sewing-machine he had caused to be taken away from tho premises in Fulton street. This, it appears, he has not compiled with, and hencio tho

.renewal of the complaint. A.t.noo'n, the further-hearing. -was adjourned for one hour, to procure .a^wJlness who was present st the tlmo of the alivgeu^assavilt,

A BAI.AKT.AVA HERO.—Alfred Sladdox, a man of sol­dierly bearing, with muslacho and flowing board, accom­panied by quite.a grnteel-looking boy of fonr or five 5care, who bears the name of "Balaklava" Mnddox, was presented this morning as an Idle person. The poor fel­low, it • appears, sought a lodging at one of tho sta­tion honpes for self and child last night, and looked as if he had bet n recently laboring undor an attack of deliri-vm trevMnt, Justice Cornwell dismissed Maddox with a camion lor which Indulgence he expressed his thanks. MmMox, is supposed to be an Englishman who has seen service in tho "Crimen. .

A llAfLTiiiBTFTruoHTrv PUNrsHKD.—Thomas Duffy, a' typo of the gemiB loafer, was this morning arraigned on the charge of stealing an overcoat, the property of Henry Whittftker. No. 105 Dean street, last evening. The c.iat did not puftice to appease Tom's rapacity—another of the same sort hanging beside it, Bliarcd the same fate. Ser­geant Rogers, of the 10th Precinct, fell in with Duffy, and seeing two coats upon his arm, it struck tho officer that this was more than fell to his share, these hard times. Duffy owned op and was transferred with tho recently acquired property, to the station house He pleaded guilty to the charge and blubbered like a whipped school boy, bogging to be let off this lime, The Justice toll him he bsrt a narrow escape, for if tho two coats had belonged to One perf on, the offence would have amounted to grand lam ny. He considered he was dealing leniently with l4uvi>:4cn<llnK-htm-laUif.J?cnilciHtl»rjr..fc.r-ihirtji_diy^. Tho dials we're restored to rtio owners.

Up she went.

of the city is continued with vigor. The Spanish Ambas­sador left his palaco,on account of its being riddled with bullets. Two officers had been struck while standing near the king. New Sardinian batteries can bo seen and arc evidently ready to take part in tho bombardment.

A deputation has arrived here from Calabria, and pro-Tul3e~d 16 raise SB Insurrection In favor of the king.

Tho Turin correspondent of tho Dally News asserts that the commencement of hostile operaiions against Gaeta from the seaside is thought to be at hand, as order3 have been sont to the gunboats at Ancona to leave immediate­ly for Naples, and the ships of war stationed at Genoa and Spezzia have been sent to tho samo destination; •

The Italian correspondent of tho Times says that year 1661 will not perhaps grow very old before French troops are in possession of Gaeta, and possibly Naples itself.

Considerable quantities of provisions were being des­patched from Rome to Gaeta,
