Livraorrox, Ranges & Co., the enter. icing and gentlemanly proprietors of the cele. twited Novelty. Works, in this city, treated the .vorkmen in their employment, together with their .wires and children, to a magnificent and'sumptu cus Dinner, on Saturday last, January let, 1838. Ey special invitation, we were present on the oc. ration, and we certainly were never at 'an entertain ment in our life, where *e enjoyed ourself more, or Where general good feeling reigned so supreme. The dinner was served up in one of the large of the Establishment. Three tables were spread, and upwrirds of 300 seats were prepared the vast assemblage. It would be impossible enumerate onehalf of the good things which , -ere so liberally served up on the occasion, under v. nose weight the tones appeared to groan. Sul , f.c'er it to say, that every thing the market could atr , rd—alltbe delicacies of the season—substan tl.lls and luxuries—all the good things of this life, weve spread out in the greatest plenty. The ladies who enlivened the party with their prtsence—the wives, sisters and daughters of the *9;llmin—certainly looked very well. They were the very picture of health and contentment, and *.V.I truilthey Will not be offended, if we add, that . they were beautiful and intelligent. ; MGM.. LIVING/TON, ROGOILN & ADAMS, the P•oprietors of the Novelty Works, came to this poor young men, without a cent of money i their pockets—their only capital was their na live ingenuity. Their early career was a series reverses; but their motto always has been "nil - .•erperandum." Previous to the great fire of April, 1545, by dint of Industry and perseverance, they sucveeded in business, and began to accumulate property; but like many others, their all was swept frc-rn them by that general conflagration. But their Yankee spirit slept not—like the fabled Phce oir; they rose from the ruins, with new energies, neW life and full of hope. It would be as difficult • for such men to sink as a mountain of cork l They ;;T3 `now Orosperous, and are thankful for their o: asperity. When the hour ot 3 o'clock arrived, Mr. L. ft. [MINTON, the senior member of the firm, called assembly to order, and deli'vered a speech of seine length, in which he gave an interesting ac • ccuat of the history of himself and associates, fEisce they took up their abode in Pittsburgh. :Tit; remarks touched the heart of every hearer, mi caused many a tear to start. His sallies of ..cir frequently called forth much laughter and lir, 'lame. When be concluded, the band struck up Columbia!" The Rev. &arum. WILLIAM. then pronounced k-„tipropriate and solemn benediction. The :Company was then invited to "go to and, without any further ceremony, help ~,-iervselves to the dainties spread before them; and would be an insult to their good tarts to say that the did not do ample justice to the feast! - • After dinner; it was announced that the work of the establishment would present to the pi - o:---ietors a &litmus Prrcur.a. Mr. W. D. Woon, .41telligent and - gentlemanly clerk of Messrs. & Co., then arose and addressed those gen• otr., , nt as follows: l'irnttemen:—The workmen in your establish tnient, desirous of expressing, in a tangible form, their esteem for ycur many good qualities, have deputed me to offer for your acceptance; this slight eti: - -tonial of their regard. It is a well known zsc that at no other eetablishment, either in this n elsewhere, is labor more faithfully requited here; and this is prcived by the fact, that a majority of the workmen who were with when you first commenced business, are with still. And it must be a proud satisfaction to r: to know, that in - the competency you have there is not one farthing unjuatlywruog cr:;Zrthe toil of the workman. But it is not for that we'bring - this offering. Yoci, as employers, have never considered that ern obligations ended with paying us, periodically, cur just.wages. Vitaen sickness and death have invacfed our 15.‘AoIds, bringing sorrow, grief and anguish to =mat& stone—where all before was joy, and and gladness,—we are proud of the oppor :,.nity to - bear witness, that you have always been zrnc.rg the first to bring comfort to the afflicted, ynd to alleviate the sorrow of the widow and the fatherless. Your heaits have always been open to tee cry of distress; and never has the suppliant t.p.an turfed away unaided. For the many evi Jences, then, of your goodness of heart, we present you *tie token; and, though we fait to express to you 'our heartfelt esteem, clothed in the glowing emptry of eloquence, yet we feel confident that sour penetration will fathom the depth of our teclirgs, and'appreciate our motives. 1;i conclusion, hoping that the mutual feelings of goodwill, which have hereto existed, will be cher.shed.aad perpetuated; and that your prosperity continue uninterrupted, we wish you, inch vid'Aly and collectively, many happy returns of ay.. , lax - morrow, apparently much affected, received the Pitcher, and replied, as follows: Pqroved IVierkmen ;—We do not know what to .n answer to this unexpected complithent. ',<l desired to make you glad by wishing you, :vita your tamilies together, a happy New Year— und giving you.a good Dinner here to day. Dot it seems that you yourselves have found out t!:e Irue secret of happiness, that olt is more biewicl to give than to receive." • We accept, thewbre, the present, with thankful hearts, trusting that we may feel To share our mutual woes; Our mutual burdens bear;— . 4 1 1,041 often, for each other, flow The sympathising tear;" uctiS " the give'. cordis loosened, and the pitcher 'r , ru aat the fountain." or. the pitcher was'lnecribed the following mr ,l,3ston, 4.4gark & as a testimony of es ;;:em for dheir sterling worth and integrity u non nt,d cmployers--by their workmen." Or one side of the . pjtcher was engraved the errean Eagle, holding a scroll, on which was eed the !mines of "L. R.

He. offered an apology—de dared diet he.' *is no , apeech-maker; but sup. posed that his wife might entertain the company mcire'egreeably thaitkiniaelf. Tremendous cheer +. mg followed, which brofight Mrs: Rosana to her feet; and, without the :alightest embarrassment, she stepped forward and spoke as follows: • In reply to your expresaions of regard for us, and with gratitude for the gift presented, in which you haVe evinced your high respect, be assured we fully and truly appreciate The gift is no alight testimonial of your regard. It is not, However, what you present, nor the value of it, we 'admire; but the motive that actuated you ;—and While we feel on inward- consciousness, that our 'conduct may have merited some testimonial of esteem from you, at the same time, we _feel equally grateful to you, and equally conscious of the favor bestowed. The Pitcher is empty, but- we know your hearts are full. We, therefore; accept the token, pledging a mutual return of respect and esteem for the:good ness of heart that hasprompted you to offer'such a rich and beautiful present. There is, recollect, a near relation existing between us—you as the employed, and we as the employees. In some measure, we are as dependent upon you as you upon us. But we wish you to understand. that it is not your labor, nor the value received therefor, we most appreciate—it is something higher : those qualities that ennoble roan, and place him on the broad platform of merit, without any counterbal• ante to detract therefrom. It is proud satisfaction to be assured that yon are latisfied with the treat• ment you have received -in times past—and for the kind offices we may have done you, if any, the recollection through life will be a source of happiness; while , at the same time, al ways remem ber "It is more blessed to give than receive." Some of you have stood by us in the hour of fiery trial. When our all was gone, you did not forsake us; and by the aid of your exertions, we stand here today. upon the very spot where we stood on the morning of the ever memorable 10th of April, 1845.

The A. N. Johnson Wasitnew ihroe boiler boat, built sio Rwnid intended 4cir trade betweeri that and 2lncinnati. She went out from Wheeling on her first trip to Cin cinnati, on Wednesday the 22d day of tecelnber. She Jeft Cincinnati - on - ber return trip, her passen gers and crew being reckoned at one hundred and ninety souls. One of the owners,Mr.-A.N. John son, was on board, with his vvife and two sons,one whom was second clerk. .The captain, Mr. Ben net, who had one of his sons on board, was also an owner. The boat was new, well furnished, with great accommodations in every respoct—so that all seemed pleased, and congratulated each other during the day - with their prospect for a pleasant trip. At the usual hour, the passengers turned-in to their state rooms—some fifteen or sixteen persons sleeping on the floor, for want of berths. :The captain and his- son occupied one of the state rooms aft; the mate and second engineer were on watch; the head engineer and one of the pilots, were sleeping in their apartment. Teeas, as it i . called. About half past one o'clock at night, eleven miles above Maysville, the boat stopped to put out a pitssenger. At the first or second revo lution, as she again started, the explosion Civic place One entire boiler was .thrown upwards I through the cabin, nearly two hundred yards, into a corn field; half of another boiler, fell some siAty yards, in the same field, in a different direction.- 1 The remaining fragment, and the third boiler, are supposed to have gone through the boat into the! river. lit an instant, all was horror beyonc de. acription, and broken details only can be gathered. One passenger, who was up, and being afraid ofj accidents, was standing:out on the guard, near the I wheel house, describes his sensation, as that ofd the boat trembling an instant, and then sinking under him; be immediately found himself in the river, and gained the shore in some way of which I be has no consciousness. Another passenger was sleeping in one of the alt state rooms. ll^ was awakened by • sudden crash, as if a large tree had fallen on the boat; the bulk head of his room was crushed in ; be sprang from his berth ; and for a moment, all was silent; but in ak instant,! the air was filled with screams and groans of ago ny ; some calling to be taken out, for God's sake ;! that they were burning to death ; others, than they were crushed to death ; and the ear was pierced I with every imaginable cry of torture. Passing) out on to the guard, and thence through a et fie room, in which was a woman who had just jump- 1 led from her bed, he went into the ladle*: cabin.— There he found Capt.l Bennett, Mr. Johnson, and , two or three others:, among them the pilot, with, Ibis face covered with blood, who, had been at the j wheel. Presently, Mrs. Johnson rushed out of her room, screaming for her son. He perished.— The gentlemen's cabin, and all forward, seemed to have fallen or been crushed in. It was full of{ smoke and steam, so that amid the darkness, con• I fusion arid horror, nothing could be distinguished' but in two or three minutes, the flames burst out into the cabin, near the wheel house. How many were crushed to death, and bow many were burnt ! in their state rooms, can never be known. All: who were on the cabin floor, doubtless. perished ) together. Some persons jumped into the river and!! were drowned ; thus, perhaps, meeting a speedierj and less terrible death. It is estimated that from', sixty to eighty persons perished. Of those who'j escaped, some made their way through the roof others climbed down the fenders into the yawl: The boat happened to be near the shore, , so that', from the yawl at the stern, the land could' I( reached by those who succeeded _in getting to the ladies' cabin. The ! captain stood on the guard, ai the stern,.and dropPid the women down to sorr el • I one in the yawl, who caught them as they fell and thus they were asset!. One woman had three ' I smail children, she pitched them one by one to k passenger, who, standing in the water, caught and placed them safely on land. The mother also es raped. In a few minutes the boat was enveloped HI flames; and was burnt to the water's edge within thirty minutes, There was but one house, a log, cabin, near where the accident happened This was tilled by the scalded, burnt, and wounded, many of whom were praying for death to end their tortures. Two or three fires were built yn :the bank, around which those gathered, until morning, who were so fortunute as to escape with out much injury. There were twenty-seven horses on board While the boat was on fire, the horrid screamEof the scalded and burning horses, plunging and te-ar ing amid the flames, drowned the . cries of the human sufferers. Eight or ten broke loose Indi jumped overboard. One, the last, was seen to spring forward near to the boat's eJge, rear hp, and fall backwards into the burning heap. The following incidents are mentioned, oneten honor, the other a disgrace to humanity: Doctor Gillespie, of New Orleans, was one viiho, reached theoore, but soon died from scalding— He is represented to have been from fifty to siittyl years of age, and so uncommonly prepossessing in his appearance, that several remarked him !lu ring the day as the finest looking man they had ever seen. When medical aid reached the suffer ers, he told those who came to him, "to let him lie where he was; he knew his fate, and could:not be saved ; they had better go and attend those they could benefit.' One man—say rather brute—saved all his hag gage. He had strapped to his trunk a pair of Or shoes,-and refused them to another passenger, who, escaping in his bare feet, had them burnt end scalded. It is also said that the same person was, with difficulty, prevailed on to let Mrs. Johttson have a frock, although she escaped in her ntight clothes, while he had saved all his own wife ap parel. The clerk of the boat, Mr. Fairchilds, reached the shore, but could not be found until the after noon, when he was discovered laying on the door under a bed, where be had doubtless crept inn state of unconsciousness. Hewes insensible when!dis covered, and soon expired. One of those who escaped, had noticed during th'e day a tall, fine looking man, appareiltlyfrom the south, who wore a long white frock coat, and had large whiskers and mustachios. Alter th's accident he was missing. • The second engineer, who was in charge at the, time,died of his injuries. He was asked before his death, whether there was water enough in the boilers, and replied there was; being pressed a second time, he said he thought there was.- The flue of the boiler thrown on shore was collapsed The boat seemed to have had a bad run of loci from the time she lelt Wheeling., It is said that before she reached Cincicinati her cam rod broke —her chimneys blew down—=one of her boilers =DM -f ly '.

We think this a hard case. Why should the city councils destroy the property of a few individuals for the benefit of the whole city, without making some kind of recompense? There seems to be no justice in this; but others may see the matter differently. ✓ln Experiment with a Cotton Factory.—A cot ton factory, built at Utica, in this State, commenc ed the maaufacture of:goods in the latter part of March, and was putjo full operation in April.

As the time for the \tomination of.onr candi date for the high office of " President or the United States is drawing near, and our attention has been directed to the names.of different individuals, on. cupying distinguished and, prominent places in the party, and as it is right and proper that the sense and feeling .of every portion of the party should be consulted in making that nomination- 7 461re,- foie,re Resolved, As the sense of this meeting, that of all the distinguished gentlemen now prominent before us, thednterests of the country would best be subserved by the nomination of George M. Dallas, ..whose name as . Vice President, on the ticket of '1844, secured to us the electoral vote of Pennsylvania, in one of the • warmest and fiercest political contests that has ever taken , place within her borders. Resolved, That in presenting the name of this distinguished Pennsylvanian to. the consideration of the Democracy of the Union, we offer no pledges for him—he needs none. There he is. His whole public life, from his youth up to the present time, is the only guarantee we can give of what his future course will be., Rewired, That as the friends of George M. Dal t las, we can present him to the convention as a_ msn whose character is without blemish. whose democracy is unsuspected; whose attachment to democratic principles bas never been questioned, and whose sagacity as a statesman is attested, in the fact that his political opponents can point to no single act of his life which is in any way cal culated to tarnish his own fair fame, or detract from the honor and welfare of his country. - - Resotved, That white we express our entire willingness and deterridnation to abide by the de cision of the national convention, we yet deem it our duty to urge on that convention the necessity of having a candidate who will poll the whole vote of the party, bringing with him into the con. test the requisite qualifications for the office along with a popularity which will insure him success. Resolved, That in George M. Dallas we would have such a candidate, possessing as he does the , entire confidence of the democracy in the east and in the west, in the north and in the south; while at the same time he enjoys a populerity which has never failed in the hour of trial—his name, though second on the ticket, secured to us the electoral vote of the Keystone State in 1844. Place his name at the head of the ticket, and Pennsylvania ' will do her whole= duty, and will give him the largest of her large majorities. Resolved, That we sensibly feel the lose ,of the great, the good, and the lamented Silas Wright, whose worth and talents, and unbending integrity, had secured to him the confidence and love—not only of the democracy of the Empire State, but of the whole republican party throughout the en. tire union. Had be lived, no sectional feelings, for personal preferences, would have prevented us from acknowledging his claims, and joining with the citizens of his own State in securing to him the reward to which his long and arduous services to his country , had entitled him. Resolved, That the predictions of out opponents in relation to the tariff of '46, have all been falsi fied; that the ruin and distreas which were to follow its passage, have not been realized; but under its benign -operations, we see the various interests of the country most flourishing" and pros perous. .ituolved, That with George M. Dallas as our candidate, we ate willing.to take issue with our c•pponents in Pennsylvania, on the policy and propriety of the casting vote." Resolved. That the 'preteat war is a just and honorable one; that a necessity, unavoidable on our part, has compelled it; and that it becomes all good.citizens to lend their aid and their influ ence to bring it to a speedy and successful termi nation. Resolved, That the present is an emergency which is calculateato try men's patriotism; that the opponents of the present war, Who, by Weir voice, their action, and their-influence, are afford• mg aid and comfort" to the enemy, as their predecessors in 1812, they will find that the dis tinction they covet by their conduct will attach to them in all time to come; like the shirt of Nessus it cannot be shaken off; and that no future pene tence or contrition can atone for it. Reso!rod, ;That the administration of Francis R. Shunk has been honest and upright, and that as Derriocaats se take this opportunity of attesting our approval of his official conduct.
