nimself close with a blanket, until he could|
get to the window. He suffered much from!
the intensity of the heat. Every attention i
that humanity could dictate, was bestowed I
Mpon the suft'erers, by the people of New-:
buigh, and likewise by the Capt. of the Mar-|
Shall. Several hats and other articles ot
dress were found in the river; but their j
owners were probably saved.
Os the causes of this disaster, we have no|
certain information. It is presumed to have
arisen from too great an exhaustion of water
in tile boilers—owning, ii is conjectured, to!
the incompetence of the engineer. Thej
old engineer, who lias had charge ot the!,
engine for several years, was dismissed a (
few days since, and a new one engaged
who oft* red his services at a reduced salary.!
It is proper to mention also (hut in order U> 1
accelerate the speed of the boat, a new boil
er had lately been put in, below,' and it was 1
that which burst, it was, however, built of
copper, in a very substantial manner. It
whs tiie end ot the boiler towards the for
ward cabin, which blew ol!', and the
damage was done to the boat in that dircc-h
tion. The boat was run aihorc, in a sink-,i
ing condition. . |
When it is considered for how long a t ine,
and in what numbers, line steamboats have
been plying between Albany and this City,! 1
it i» rattier to be wondered at how few ac- '
cidemts have occurred. We recollect but
one, arising from the’ explosion of steam,!
which happened to the Constitution in 1825,
by which, if we tecoliect, one or two lives !
were lost. Tilt: old steamboat Franklin, l !
met with a similar misfortune near Sing
Sing, by which one-life was lost j hu' she. ;
was not running regularly on any line. Such
melancholy events naturally tend to create
alarm, and deter those who can avoid it
from travelling in any steamboats whatever.
We believe, whowever, that no cause of ap
prehension need to esist in travelling in l
any of the other excellent boats which now.
make their trips ou the river.
Since the above was in type, we have, been 1
favored with the following letter from Capt.'
Ford, the commander of tho Chief Justice)
Marshall. ! • ' !
Newburgh, 22i1 April.
I have the unpleasant duly to perform, to
say that shortly after leaving the dock all
this place, about 7 o’clock, the whole front
of,our boiler blew out with a most trumen-j
dous explosion. Ten pei jotis are badly
scalded —three or four so much so, that
their lives are despaired of. The cause at
present we know not; but can say the steam 1
was very low—the boiler well supplied wi h !
water— the guage coiks were tried while'
landing, and the steam continually blowing
oft'. All is confusion, I name the follow
ing persons as most injured.
Mr. Valant, engineer, badly,
J unes Williams, wood-passer, do.
Peter Moore, fireman, do.
Mr Raudell, fireman, do.
Thos Dimond, cook not so badly,
James Cassidy, waiter, very badly,
Cole, waiter, not so much sc,
—— Aaron, waiter, do.
Two passengers—one badly, the other
slightly.
The explosion was dreadful. I happened
to be standing in the most exposed situa-|
lion, but received no material injury, and:
am doing all I can for the comfort of the j
distressed. One of the standpipes was driv-'
un through the bottom oßthe boat, and T
have hauled heron the flat below the dock.!
I am almost exhausted, and can add no.
more. I am, &c. ; IRA FORD, i
7’he Faithful servant of La Fayette, —t
James Fayette, (t man of color) the vener-i
able and respected servant of our nation’s
benefactor, the great and good La Fayette,
has arrived here from his residence in New
Kent county, and proposes to remain eight
or ten days,' previous to Ins departure for;
Baltimore, Philadelphia, &c. He bears anl
original certificate given him by Gen. La
Fayette, testifying in strong terms, hat he
rendered “ essential services to the cause of
vur country, in the Virginia Cotnpaign, of
JTBI, which resulted in the capture of Corn-,
wa/lis’ army at York,” Among these ser-'
vices it is recited, that he several times
penetrated the Enemy’s Camp—indus-|
Iriously collected and most faithfully deli
vered intelligences” of benefit to the pub
lic service—and that “ he properly acquit
ted himself with some important commis
sions which he confided to him,”—The
genuineness of this certificate is attested by
tbe late President John Q. Adams, at Wash
ington, December 11th, 1824, when in at
tendance there to lake leave ot the '• Na '
lion’s Guest.”
Many by whom he is held in high esti
mation, having expressed a desire to possess
a copy of this honorable testimonial of char
acter and valuable service, from the old
General to his faithful Revolutionary at
tendant, he is about to have engra'dngs
struck for the purpose—and, to make it tri
butary to the comfort of his declining years,
is collecting subscribers to it, in which we
wish him every success. Such a testimony
from such a source, is a rich legacy to (he
holder, and in our judgment a legitimate
source of revenue to the veteran who has so
iaithfully earned it.

( The following communication to the National 1
j Gazette deserves notice, from the excellence
advice it contains. No Minister of the Gospel can
maintain that purity and eminence of character c
whioh is requisite to advance the cause lie advo- c
.cates, and at the same time throw himself into the s
1 arena as a political partizan.
“ Methodist Ministers and Politics. —Allow me to i
give circulation, through the National Gazette, to a i
.very wise and salutary suggestion, which should s
die regarded as advice to Ministers of all denomina
tions. 11 is this —Let them not be at all connected with,
'nor concerned in the politics’of the country. This-lit- t
tie note was occasioned by the advice of the Hev. j
Bishop Bedding, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, [
to the Philadelphia Annual Conference, now in ses- (
sion in this city. One of its members (which is a veYy f
rare case,) had taken some interest and manifested i
some warmth in a recent national election, and there- j
by got into some difficulty. When his case came up t
before the Conference, at the clcce of it the Bishop j
said to the Conference—“l advise you, brethren, ]
never to be concerned in any way in the politics of
the country: you have other and better work to do,
which will require all your time and talents. Be
sides, it will bring you into difficulty, lower your
character as ministers, and lessen your influence. 1
never knew it to result in any other way, and I I
have known many cases,” To this advice from the J
President the Conference responded amen May t
ithey and all others, practise this wholesome instruc
tion, and give themselves wholly to the work. ” 1

It is curious to see that the new work entitled
Paul Clifford, from the pen of the author of Pel- '
:ham, yet unpublished in Europe, will shortly ap
pear from the press of the Harpers, in New-York.
1 The Cherokees, it would seem, are the Lions oi !
the day, in certain quarters of this blessed republick '
The men sympathize with them, and the ladies are
afflicted with a sort of lack-a-day-sicat snivelling for
, the hard fate of these tawney heroes of the forest, t
and their amiable and accomplished squaws. Thei.
. politicians of certain States find it convenient just at!
this juncture of time to overwhelm the people of
Georgia with abusive epithets for enacting laws for
the government of the Indians intuitively milder 1
and more gracious in their tendency and effect than !
M those which their own Legislatures have given birth
to, and to which alone they are indebted for the al
most total extinction of the red-race among them
The General Government and its officers are tra- 1
i dsccd as having joined in the hue and cry with this
State to hunt the natives from their homes, and eve
>, ry opportunity is sought to pervert the evident
meaning and effect of the official acts of our puolic
functionaries to the purposes of these Indianites. In 1
1 confirmation of the above, we append the following
1 slip cut out of the National Gazette of the 23d ult. ;
1 and purporting to be a summary of the report of the
Secretary of War, upon the present state of the In
dians within the United States.
“ Os the Cherokees, about whom particularly the
public mind has been, and continues to be much
r agitated, the information is very, and as it seems to
: us studiously, defective. This very circumstance
t however, so far from prejudicing their case, of creat-1
lug doubts ol their advance in civilisation and Uic
- . , »
arts, and of their romp.pfoncy tb enlightened self--go ?
iernmcn*, strongly induces the* belief, that they!
I arc fully capable ct n.doistai. ling and manngirgj
.their own affairs, and are, in very mum- important |
respects, moral and equal at feast to the*
whites by whom they arc derided and sought to be •
oppressed t'he acknowledged situation of the 1
Chickasaw* and Choctaws fully authorises litis be
lief. These Indians are behind the Cherokees iuj
improvement. It is a singular coincidence, and. ]
cannot fall to attract observation, that all the infor
mation which this report conveys favorable to tht
Indians, comes from agents who are now at the. 1
posts, in their respective agencies ; and that, of he
letters addressed to,the War Department from some;
half a dozen agents ibho arc n>>w at Uashington
not one holds encouraging language, hut most of
them concur in representations of the most unfavor
able character. The President and the Secretary of
War having decided against the Indians, it would
be their condemnation to give us light on the sub
ject”
Lord Bthon says, “ when we subtract from lift,
infancy, (which is vegetation)*—sleep, eating and *
swilling—buttoning and unbuttoning—how much
remains of downright existence '—The Summer of

has recently occurred among the diggers in the -

after a Warm contest tiie Carolinians were driven

The Legislature of this State adjourned at 12 -
o’clock on Tuesday, after a session of 106 days,
daring which 387 laws were passed The bill to
abolish imprisonment for debt passed the House of
Assembly, but at so late a period, that there was
not time to act upon it in tiie Senate The militia
bill also passed the Senate, but was delayed so long '
in the House before called up that there v/as not ■
sufficient time to act upon it. “
A gentleman on Saturday informed the editor of °
the Boston Patriot, that but 20 doubloons were
found about the lute Joseph While of Salem after'
his horrible murder, it was sworn on the inquest,
that he had slated to a member of the family, a
short time before his murder, that be had in the y
house SIOOO in specie ; from which circumstance it
is inferred that plunder may have been obtained by
the assassin.—Clouds and darkness still rest on the
nefarious transaction, and there seems every day
less reason to hope that.they will ever be removed. 0
