Ok so while playing drums for my side project the bassist was borrowing my rig..what he did was completly idiotic..I play 2 heads through 2 cabs he wasn't paying attention while he was hooking it up he plugged my 350 watt head to the input of one cab...then ran my Eden to the same cab output..turned on the juice and a hell of a noise came out and immediately the Eden smelled like a pizza left in the oven for 4 hours...the power light comes on but that's it...Is it screwed or is there some saftey relay that would prevent disaster if someone hooks it up backwards

They generally only fuse the power supply, so if the power comes on, chances are, it didn't trip a breaker.

If you have a tube power section, i would expect that you have a blown output transformer. If not, i'd expect some blown power transistors and maybe some power resistors.

If you have to ask, its time for a trip to Sarge in State College or, if he can find the time, Ken Oyler at Gigbox music.

I totally had an A-Team moment from the Ken Oiler comment.
