G, LxcoorfioN.-Yesterday morning about fifteen minutes to one O'clock, a loud report, like tbo discharge of a cannon, tTuaheard by persons in different sec tions of the city. It lasted but a mo ment, and no alarm of any kiud fol lowing, those who heard tbe report gave themselves no uueesiuess about it. Y?*iterduy tbe cause was aacertalned to bean explosion of one of tbe stills at tho oil refinery of the Weat Virginia Mining and Manufacturing Company, corner of Llndney and Fifth streets. The oil nad l>eeu drawn out of the still a day or two previous. Tho workman supposing it biul become sufficiently cool, removed the cap ami the explosion immediately followed. No damage waa done, except throwing down a few bricks from the wall enclosing the still, ilud the accident occurred two days lai before, the entire destruction of the es tablishment would huvo been the pr<<baiiie result. I ncoiu'oiiatko.-?The petition of sev eriil gentleman of Baltimore null thin city, asking to be incorporated under the laws of our State us "The Belmont Nail Works Company," was tiled in the office of the Secretary of .State, a fow days ago. The principal olllco of I he new ?!Oinpany is to be located here, as has been that of the former firm. They commence business with a capital n| $.'iOO,?HK), divided into shares of $1,200.

The Company ask the ri^ht to increase the cttpltal stock to $/xio,000, should they deem it expedient. They propose that the certificate ol in corporation shall cease on the -ItIt of Jauuury, 1K?0. The Secretary of State issued the usual documents yesterday. A kick lot of hats and tho latest style bonnet frames, received yesterday at I?. A. AUIer A (36.'a. PAUDojOj.?Churlea Meredith, who was convicted ol grand larceny at the Msy lerm of the Circuit Court of Tay lor county InlSflS, ami sentenced to tbo penitentiary for three years, was par doned yesterday by the Governor. Meredith, it will be remembered, waa Implicated in tho robbery of the Adams Kxprots Company at Grafton, on tbe I'd of September, 18(11. Abner Murks was shown to be the principal in the buatneKS, und was trletl and convicted. He made his escape frum Muuudsvsllo some time since. It wimctsabllshcd on tbe trial that Meredith did not take part In the robbery, but was iutbecon tideuce ol tiio actual operators. Mince his confinement in prison bis behavior lias been unexceptionable, anil ho Is represented to have performed the la bor aaslgued him and discharged every duty imposed on him, promptly and with fidelity. The application for his pardon was signed by the Judge who tried him, the I'rosccuting Attorney, and a large nuiu iter ol'tli?> moHt intelligent and respeut ablo'citlzcus of Taylor county. Two yearti and a liulf of his term of impris onment have already passed, and it was thought, under the circumstances, tbe ends of justice hud been fully met. James (iuuuoe was convicted of mur der iu the second degree, at the Novem ber term of the Circuit Court of Wy oming county, lixtf, mid neiitcnucd to the penitentiary for five your.t. Gun noe was in company with two other parties, who became in vol veil iu a difficulty with two men named Lester and Whitt. In the affray, Lester ami Whitt lost their lives, but the dying testimony of Whitt was to tbo effect that Gunnoe was merely a spectator, and took no part in the killing. He, too, since his confinement at Moundaville, has conducted himself propot ly, uud, we learn, has united ?with one branch of tbe Christian Church, and has given evidenco cf thorough reformation. His application for pardon was signed by the Judge, prosecuting attorney and jury that tried him, the clerk of the court, and a majority of tho prominent citizens of the county. A series of ?resolutiona passed in his favor at tbo General As sociation of the Baptists of West Vir ginia. was laid before the, Governor. Yesterday his paper* were made out, and he is doubtless before this time re joicing iu his freedom. Go to Hitchcock Dow'a uight school to night?$2 per month. Postomcz Bcsi5*m--To give our] readers *ozn*f id*r? of tb?? amount of, business transacted in oar city po*4 of fice, we have copied the subjoined from the official document*. We remark that perhaps no other po?t; | office in the country U? more judiciously i managed* and m?re thoroughly ?y? temized than our own. Everything, [move? like clock-work. From the | chief down to tn?? lowest subordinate,j ' all are prompt and faithful in the di* ; charge of their duties. ' On the lUh inst., in accordance with a regulation of the Post Office Depart i wfeot, a daily register of the number of letter* mailed at the office and paid by stamps, was commenced, and up to last evening amounted to 28,937, or an average of 1,315 each day. The largest numoer mailed in one day waa on the lfcth, when it reached 1,066; the lowest | number wan 447, on the 13th (Sunday.; J The amount of sales of stamps and j stamped envelopes; sold during the : quarter ending September 30th, was |fJ,7^2,80?divided thus: *3,924 stamps, and pSofi.b0 stamped envelopes. The j number of registered lettera, packages I of stamps and stamped envelopes, pass ! tug through the office during the aame i period was 1,620. The amount of money | orders paid during the quarter was i $4,739,28 ; and of money orders issued on other offices, I6.4U.03. During the quarter ending June 30, 16G6, there were sold 128,765 stamps, realizing $3,746.!fJ; during the quarter ending March 3i, lbtt'J, &jkrajAJ?; during the quarter euding June30, lbtiz, $6,^39.03. Total amount of postage on letters re ceived at the office daring the quarter ending June 30, 1S64, 778.44. When it is taken into consideration that each stamp represent* but a few cents, we can form some estimate of the number required to realize the amounts above given, and the extreme care re quired to guard agaiust Joss in depos ing of so many tens of thousands of lit tle plecesof paper. We are under obligations to cbiel clerk, W. A. Cracraft, Esq., and to William Adams, Esq., who has charge of the stamp and money order Depart . meats, for furnishing us the foregoing statistics. Gas.?About u week since Dr. M. Blackburn, of BitchieC. II., put in our news room one of his patent gas gener ators. The Doctor claims that a large Having of g:is is effected by the use of his Invention, and that the light fur nished is much superior to that of the ordinary gas. Of course we are not prepared to speak as to Its economy, having tried it but so short a time. We will bo better prepared to do so in the future. That the light we get now is softer and increased in volume, al though using tlie same burners as be fore, is pretty evident. We think the Doctor's invention has merit in it, and a ''-alt at his rooms will satisfy the most incredulous that he lias full faith in its ultimate success. He is to be found at almost all hours of the duy at the store of (Jeorge W. Johnson, on Main street. ?? ?? ? ? Nkw Fin*.?In our columns this morning, will he found the advertise ment of Messrs.

Mr. it. has been en gaged in the Drug business for many1 years in tills city, and has an extensive acquaintance in the trade tributary to this point. lie will, therefore, bring to the new concern a lar^o addition to their present nourishing business. It will be noticed that the new tirm will now become the-proprietors of the cele brated Chemical Writing Flpid, gotten up originally by Mr. iiushfleld, and for which an extensive trade is ulready secured.
