ourrrr.—A meeting of the Porter men
t wits held at the East Schuylkill Haven
Motel, about three and n half inilem from
this-place, on Saturday last. jWe learn
that the landlord had been ordered to pre-
:pare to dinner for forty persons;' which he I
accordingly did; but, alas! ala 4 when the
dinner guests were assembled and counted,
the number present amounted aoly to 12,
all told ! I And this number composed the
whole meeting: Among the mons pre
sent,
,was a special Agent o the ?oat
Master General, from Washin ton. The
landlord, we understand, was quite disap
pointed; he calculated on a rich harvest of
r •
I
profits from the entertainmen •/ ; but, alas!
the empty places at his • boa , were an
unexpected drawback! We suspect that
the landlord will never again make eaten-
sive preparatiOns on the credit of a Par-
ter dinner in Schuylkill count • .

The Vicksburg Register, in describing the late
fatal explosion of the steamboat Orunoko, Which
occurred in consequence of the retention of the
steam while the boat was stopping to receive paw
srngers, says—
The deck passengers were upon the lower
deck abaft the engine. The berths were filled
and the floors were - covered with matresses. We
should not suppose the room would accommodate
more truth 100 persona. The number of deck
passengers on board is estimated at 80 to 100.—
A gentleman who was at work among them, a
carpenter, catenates the number at 150, The
steam swept through the whole length of the boat
with the strength of the lightning torrent carry
ibg every thing before it. A great number were
blown overboard, nearly if not quite all were
scalded severely, some completely excoriated and
shockingly mangled ; some frantic with despair
and agony jumped overboard ; the deck was
strewn with 50 helpless sufferers and the river
alive with them swimming to the bank, then
from it in the wildest phrenxy. To detail the
many distressing circumstances connected with
this dreadful tragedy would be too revolting to
