Zcarrisburg Corre spendeoce. HARRISBURG. March 15, 1843 The House this morning, sent back the Apportionment Bill to the Senate, with a message that they insisted upon their amend ments,whichhad been non coccurrid in by thatirosly-. It is supprs d that the Senate on to-morrow arec ede, although the vote will be very close. The Ilcuse a , Toendments are contained, with an excep• lion or two, in a Bill reported some time ego by Mr. Brawley. In the afternoon Mr. Karns called up a 1t which :.e had previously reported, re lativeto the inspection of flour in Pi tts. burgh. It met with strong opposition at the very threshbold, from members who represent the surrounding counties. They supposed that its provisions would operate onerously upon some of their constituents • tP.r.led the - Pittsburgh market. I believe that they were mistaken, and that some such law as was proposed in Mr. K.'s bill will be found necessary to secure the people of Pittsburgh and Allegheny from imposition. The hill was voted down on second reading. Rave the citizens of your good city seen 'theiail 'of the Comet? or is the at !nos .pheie too murky with you, as it generally is. fur star gazing? This extraordinary visiterwas the subject of much speculation Among the people here for an evening or 'after it was first observed. The igno ,t . looked upon it with won ler--and the “Milleri'es"supposed that it was the fore. runner of that grand catastrophe which they have predicted is soon to befall us in thp<destruction of this globe of ours.

Paul's, gave a public ex . hibition on Friday night. From what we cal learn, for we did not get in, it wa so densely crowded wish ladies and gen tlemen, the performance was highly ere& stable to the young men belonging to it; they having , displayed much talent and in. duetry in preparing for the occasion.— The opening addrez by the Very Rev. Dr:O'Connor, is highly spoken of:— Much good will result from the success oftbis lostitute, and while under the ails pices of the Reverend gentletnan ivho founded it, it twin and will succeed. The Explosion.—There are so many and vague rumors in relation to the dreadful catastrophe of last Friday, that we feel no guaranty in making any positive statement as t.i the number of likes lost, the extent of in damage or the causes 7 hich produced the accident. We give all the items of in• fotmation that have reached us. The number of lives ascertained to have been lost amounts to three, viz: 111'Carlan, 2nd Enginettu and two black men, who were drowned. -The following are the names of the persons ascertained to have been wounded: Andrew Smith, badly scalded. Micheal Bready, do do Joseph Nichols, slightly scaldcd. Horny Machin, do The above were part of the crew of the Manhattan, who were on beard the Cutter as passengers. One black man was badly scalded, and another slightly. Two %bite men were slightly •calded, and a%o a white woman. Their names have not been ascertained. Joseph Hughes, lit Engineer, very badly scalded. His recovery is much doubted. The American of Saturday is very se. vete (mile Captain and the Engineers,but witig.wliat degree of justice we cannot say. Public opinion, bnwevPr, seems to acquit them of any •dirileci ion of duty.

[ION. W. W. IRWIN Having laid by the editorial pen, last week, as is our wont, before Friday night, we were not able to make any remarks upon the final action of the Senate with re gard to the nominations sent in by the President. We should, otherwise, have expressed the *no common gratification which we felt a the flattering manner in which the nomination of Mr. !twin, as Charge d' Affaires to Denmark, was confirmed. The kindliness of temper and propriety of bearing so uniformly exhibited by Mr. Irwin, have won for him gen. eral regard to such a degree, as entirely to efface, in his case, the asperity of political opposition. It is for us to speak of the warmth of his heart and the generosity of Iris disposition, and to exprPss cur unbias sed conviction tilat the iunircsis of me coun try could n ct be confided to purer or more competent hands. We wish him and his amiable family an agreeable and instruc tive sojourn abroad, as wel as a happy re turn to a large and attached family circle. 3 /Md . /et/L-I'l,e New Yolk Amer ican says:—'The of heirs one of ourioldefit and wealthiest citiz qis, who died a few weeks since, on taking rssession of his house, discovered a I rge, sum of money of which they had no previous knowledge whatever, They cominued their research es until the surn of one hundred thous.ind dollars was collected (of which. there is no account left by the deceased) part in bank bills but the larger portion in checks, one, two and three years old, u ; )00 our city banks—not certified—and yet every dol lar of which was promptly paid on presen tation at ths different binks.

Wm Arthurs Thos Daft Error Corrected. The Gazette of Friday last, in a spirit of chancteristic dishonesty, announces a previous pardon by Governor Porter, in a rase of bigamy; charged against an indi vidual at the "Court of Quarter Sessions in Beaver county. Had the miserable drone of that sheet given the least intimation of the grounds upon which the Executive clemency was invoked in behalf of the per son charged with the crime, no notice would be taken of the v: pouring rif a man so regardless of truth and fair dealing. The facts are as follows: the unfortunate individual prosecuted for the crime of bigamy is a non compos—a lunatic. An official record of the proceedings in the case, established by a most respec:able Jury before a Commissioner of unsullied fame, was laid berore the Governor; and upon due proof that the writ "de lunalico inquircndo" had reference to the person named in the charge of bigamy, the Gover nor very properly extended the mercy contemplated by our laws to be exercised in such cases. The document above referred to is now on file in the executive office at liarrit:. burg. One additional fact may also he mentioned-, Judge Bredm on hearing that a commission of lunacy had been estah , fished in this case, in the exercise of a humane discretion postponed pronouncing sentence for the purpose of enabling the enitrinel of the criminal to exhibit the facts of the case in extenuation of the charge.
