Kentucky Corn Crop.—The Lexington IntelliV gonerr of the 14th, states that the corn c(pp.nfKen- tueky the present year is unu-ually large, and will peiiinps surpass any that has ever before been pro- ■I in tliot State. It gives the following insttx' ces of immense yields in particular localities t Wo understand front undoubted authority that tbreo of tlio neighbors nf Mr. W. C. Young of Jessa mine county, measured the quantity of corn grown on an acre uf Ids furm, a few days since, and found the yield to bo thirty nine barrel, and eng half biuhel! About the same quantity wns also found from mraturemont to have been produced .upon on# acre of tbe furm of.Mr. Joseph Bryan, of tRa.-aame county. This surpasses any thing of the kind' that has overcome under our obseivation, and We doubt if it has ever been equalled in twuj£ or any 6*her ' country." LEGISLATURE OF OHIO.

MU Tulol 65 43 APALACHICOLA, Oct.28. LOSS OF THE STEAMBOAT LE ROY- SIX LIVES LOST, The steamboat Siren, Cnpt. Fields, brings Intel- ligenco uf the loss oftho Le Roy, Washington Smith master, nnd reports tlie melancholy newt that 6 par. sons were killed, nnd several dangerously scalded, buint, or otherwise wounded.—The accident occur red uti Sunday Inst, about 2 o'clock I*. M. opposite Blunt's Town, on this river. Thn I.oRpy was cm ployed on tbe Brunswick line, in tbo ci/hveymice oftho mnil ond passengers, be tween Chntuhoocheu and loin, nnd in her Ihsi trip was coming front tlie first named place. She is re presented to hnvo bueii nnold bout, but wns not con sblered unsuf *. It appears that first Iter boilers rx pioded. and nfterwr.rds site cuught fire and burnrtl down lu{tlio water's edge. Tbe wrack now Ijcsoppo site Blunt’s Town,to which place tlio wounded were conveyed. Among tlio pns-engers wn* M-. Willi* AI«ton,and. we believe he was tlm only one who escaped unhuit. He is reported to huve stated, thut before leaving Cliaitnhoucliep, lie observed something about the bunt which created n fueling of insecurity. Thus im tolled he knpt as near the stern uf tlm boat us possl de, that being the safest place. On hearing ihcrx plosion, tie immediately jumped into the yawl boat, and thus made his cscupe while the vessel was uit fire. Thn killed nro repnited lobe Daniel Rowlett, passenger. Washington Smith, master? John Ashton, engineer. l'ressly Hicks, fireman. John Waller, do. Henry Carter, a free mulatto, sleivunt The uamesofthe wounded we hav^not learned. Fortunately, (here were not many passengers on board, otherwise ihu disaster would have bvea still more melancholy. Thu Le Roy was owned by the mail contractors on the grfcot Southern Route, Mes«rs. Hopkins and Stockton. Further Particular,.—Since the above (was in typo, through the politeness of Cnpt. James Y. Smith, of the steumbont Louisa, we have received a more circumstantial account of tbe melancholy cninstrnpbe above minted. Thn Le Roy left Chattahoochee on Sunday, at half past 10, A. M. conveying thn mail to Iowa. Tire accident occurred iwomih-s above Blunts a t*wh, at the hour before stated. Tlio names of tho wounded aro — Holloman, Pilot, Sam Smothers, n free mulotlo, cook, A black woman belonging to the boat, and a ne gro boy, belonging to Judgo Spang. There were three persons who escaped unhurt, making in all thirteen persons who were on board nt the time of the arcident. The wounded were conveyed to the plantation of Mr. Satton, where they huve received every ntteu lion, nnd in a fair wny of recovery. The pilot is much bruised, hnving been blown several feelintb tho nir, and fallen on tbo wreck with tbe wheel in his hand. Nothing wns saved hut the mail which was blown on to tlie forecastle. The river, Capt Smith says, is literally strewed with fragments, and since the accident tlie lmut has entirely disappeared, leaving nothing but the stern pole to indicate where it lays. After tho explosion, Hnd before the fire, a Mr. Tapper went on board tho wreck alone, to ren der assistance to the wounded and recover llw bodies. While thus engaged tire wounded were tnken away in the yawl boat, leaving him with out a living companion. In it* nbsence tho flames spread with fearful rapidity, but whh un daunted, and truu bravery, he still persevered to tbe imminent danger ofltis life, nnd had the return of tlie yawl been delayed n few minutes, ha would un doubtedly hove fallen n sacrifice lo Ids heroic bene- vnlenco. Wo ore happy to state that he escaped, but such noble conduct should net go entirely unno ticed. Copt. Smith, master of tha Le Roy, waa only in tempuruiy command, the regular master having en gaged him during his absence at a Camp Meeting. The mail was rescuorl by Mr. Sutton, anil conveyed toils destination by tbe Louisa. INDIAN NEWS. Copt.
