Ie is not often a gunpowder explosion occurs in Macao. On last Sunday night, the 28th ult., an explosion occurred in a magazine on a hill nest Boa Vista Hotel, belonging to a cracker factory. It would seem th: t a man went there and struck a maioli to look round, when the gunpowder, some six piculs, at once exploded and he was killed. The corpse was that of a stranger, and it is supposed he went to pilfer powder, as a good deal hus been missed lately.
