About iix o’clock on Sunday ’ evening, as the (team boat en terpriie had puffied off from Sul- I liVan’s iil-tnd, having on board sixty or ilveuty p dlkngers, one of tlie boilers exploded, and dreadfully burnt and fc aided ten pafikngers, who ha ) taken Ihvl t ter from the impending rain be. 1 low the deck, and dole to the j mouth ot the boiler which bur If. hour were white men, and the remaining fix negroes.

The anchor of the fleam oval was immedietely let go, and the unfortunate hifferers v’ere re* j moved to different houses on rite | bl ind, where every thing that i could be done tor their relief ; was adrnlniffered, Tof tl etn ’ who were molt feverdy Raided, 1 died in the comic of the night ; r they were Mr. Joseph Roberts, i son in law of Mr. Morgan, late ‘•• * * 1 a conllabh* of this city ; but who , now resides ::i one of the noirh | er; fhte:\ and Mr. Divid Tor ; ten, a native of Long-Iffand, both working at the bufinois of tobac cotiiff.

I fie negroes so far as v;e conld leant are dill living, though Ik vend of them are very badly burnt and disfigured. Public op'nYu is much divid ed as to the c?ufc of this awful accident, mod rwrfens being of opinion, at the fu 11, blulh of the thin it. that the boiler had ex* I plowed from being overcharged j with llcarny but from an exunu i nation which we have made, and j from the united declarations of l the owner, Mr. Howard, the en ; ginecr, pilot and all hands at < tached to the vefiel, we are fa- I itched the fatal ex of lion ‘was oc ■ cafioned by lightning.
