The Trenton Uawlto of yesterday contains
the following particulars of the explosion of
a propeller ou the Delaware and Rantan
"iThorrible explosion, attended with loss
of lire, occurred on tho propeller Funny
tinnier on Saturday morning. Tho Fanny
Uarner is one or the new lino of propellers
recently started between this city and New
York. She had tuUcn on a cargo nt the
lower bnsin on Friday und started for New
York. When about a mile this side of
Honndbrook, where she is owned, at 2 A. M.,
her boiler suddenly exploded whil greut . vio
leuce, injuring the bout greatly and killiug
ihe captain, Mr. Hird. and four or the crew.
The news wan tclegruphed to this city on
.Saturday. The boiler is said to have been
nearly new, calculated to curry about 75
pounds Rtcftin, and only CO pounds were
gauged at tho time or the accident. A part
i,r the boiler, weighing nearly huir a ton.
was blown about U1IU yards over the top or a
large walnut tree, upon a hill, aud a large
piece or copper pipe was blown into the
woods nearly u quarter or a mile distunt.
Nkw ISite.NswiiK. Aprd 26.
The rollowing is a correct list or tho killed
aud wounded on board of the steumer :
Killed Cornell Hird. Cupt., leaves a wif
nnd one child; Michii'l Nugout; James Mc
Maun, leaves u wife ; Patrick Comford j John
Thornhill, body not round, leaves a wire
Wounded James l Harnett, engineer,
badly; William McEvoy, fireman, slightly;
t;orge Mitchell, pilot, slightly; Andrew J.
McCarty, Steward, slightly; Mr. IMant,
passenger, severely injured.
The steuiner lius on tho bottom of tho
canal a perfect wreck. A part or her boiler,
supposed to weigh COO lbs., was thrown SM
leet 011 a lull 'HI teei uuove mc tauni,
over a tree 31 feet high. A part or tho face
of one of the killed wus round on tha oppo
site, tide of the Millstone river by a dog. A
pin t of the boiler was found near it. The
concussion was terrible, breaking windows
and forcing open doors.
Tilt COAL TRADE.
The quantity sent by Railroad this week i8
29,817 10 tons' by Canal 25,048 07 for th

to sumo pernio lust year.
The shipments this week are less by 3.9G7
tons than lust week, and 26,649 tons less
than for tho corresponding week last year.
The tnido is rapidly on tho decline from
this Region, wo are now 11.587 04 tons
behind tho shipments to same period last
year. Wo think tho shipments will contiuue
to f ill off Tor the ensuing two weeks. There
is a determination on the part of a large
number not to push their Collieries at present
prices for Coal and it was stated yesterday
at the Coal meeting, that those who had
naked the highest price for Coal were doing
the most business. Tho low prices at which
some Coal is ottered causes consumers to
suspect tlmt it is worthless. And there is
inst cause for such suspicion, becnuso we
know that tonio of the Coal offered for salo
at these low rates, has been stocked on
wharves for a year, and gome even two
years as unsaleable. Miner' Journal.

As it is generally. known that we are
a Candidate for re-election to the ffico of
County Superintendent of Common Schools,
it was not our intention to say any thing on
the subject publicly, but as there seems to be
"disposition, with a Tew, to make a wrong
impression, we reel it our duty to write these
lines. There ore a lew individuals, who are
anxious to oppose us, and who therefore de
sire to irrge an objection, however groundless
if may be. Hence we havo been told that
a Tew contend, that the Superintendent must
havo been quite recently, or niust now be, en
gaged in teaching school. This is not the
ca.i He must be "a person or literary and
scientific acquirements, and skill and expe
rience in the art or teaching." This tho law
requires and nothing more. A brier state
ment will show, whether our qualifications,
in this respect, meet the demands or the law.
In addition to about two years employment,
as a teacher, we had the care of a high school
lor years, which was relinquished only, on our
removal to this Slute. Wo were entrusted
with the selection or the teachers nnd the
Superintendence or the school. Some or them
bourded, and all studied with us. We visited
tho school frequently and gave instruction in
the art of teaching, government, Ac.
As the teachers thus selected wo College
studeuts, whoso object was to teach during
the duy, aud study with us in the morning and
evening, and as we were in a certain sense,
responsible for their success, we felt it our
duty to visit the school often, and give coun
sel and instruction concerning it. This we
did. as already stated aud also read the best
works on the art or teaching. It was in this
school, whilst under our care, that Her. J. I.
Crnmbarigh, a very superior scholar, who has
recently beon appointed as County Superin
tendaut of Lancaster county, iu this State,
was prepared for College. Since that time
wo have bad nearly three years experience as
County Superintendent; witnessed many dif
fer cut modes or touching, and had opportuni
ty to judge their comparative merits. We
have ulso, siuce we assumed the office, read
new works on tire best and most approved
modes of teaching; delivered many lectures
on teaching and education ; held a number
of Institutes, sonie of which were attended
by Frofessors and Teachers or I Ugh Schools
aud received their highest commendations.
The public are able to judge from these facts,
whether we ought not, by this time "possess
skjll and experience in the art of teaching."
I am, very respectfully, your '
obedient servant.
