Com. Morgan took rooms here, or rather, I

Yankee phrase, Josephllionaearte,) where, instead
of cutting that k'nd of a dash all Commodores are
expected to cut by virtue of their office and in
honor of their country. he has been for four weeks
airlifted to b;s bed with the gout, from which he

recently married; his bride is the daughter of 0.

a d lovely as tile skies of the Mediteranean, she
is young—not over twenty-five, I suppose—no:
much more, certainly. And, since the Commo.
dote is over fifty, it is reasonable to suppose he
has married at that time of life, when a young
wife is the most agreeable co npanion in the
woad—one who can watch by his bid and nurse
him when he is kept in the house four weeks from
the gout, and read a French or Spanish Rotnance
to him with that soft musical voice, which is no

impossible for the heavens ever to be angry.—

but, throughthe medium of what Italian I have
picked up in three months, the conversation was
carried on trite vigorously. And the Governor,
who has seen the world in all its aspe ts Ind ex

By the arrival of the Ostrich from Port

and the government formed as nearly like
our own as practicable.
The entrance of the patriot army into
Port au Prince was celebrated as a high
festival. A triumphal procession was
formed, composed of the army and citizens
generally. The streets through which it
passed, were gaily decorated and orna
mented with immense droves of flowers,'
called "temples of liberty." The proces
sion was greeted by the shouts of the peon
ple together with the roar of cannon, which
was continued throughout the day. The
whole pageant closed by a general Monti-.

P. S. The New World arrived at our

Allegheny Wharf.— The Allegheny
wharf at the foot of Irwin street is con'
stantly crowded with t nerchandise,lumber ,

we think we have not overrated it.
Steatnbont Accident.
The Harry of the West collared two
of her flues during a late trip, near Nlem
phis, Tenn., which killed and wounded a
large number of persona. The following
i• a c atalogue of the killed, wounded and
missing:
One fireman killed; one deck hand sca►.
ed; one deck passenger's leg broken and
badly bruised; two cabin passengers badly
bruised and scalded; one deck har.d slight
ly scalded; one mate's leg broken; one
deck hand, two cooksorie cabin passeng e t s
en d one deck passenger missin..r.
The Cincinnati Sun says the Harry was
on her return trip from New Weans, and
was at a wood -yard below Memphis, hav
ing reade the quickest trip on record S 9 far.
When about to leave the wood -yard,which
is opposite Commerce, she collapsed her
larboard flue, doing slight damage to the
boat. Six or seven passengers were miss
ing—the exact number not known. The
Grey Eagle towed the Harry to Memphis.
The flues blew out forward among the fi re
men and deck passengers. She was ca
reened by striking a log, and the accident
took place at the first revolution of the
wheel after she settled i.► the water. The
Harry did not sustain much injury.
The steamboat Gen. Gaines sunk on the
15th inst ,on the Alabama river, four
miles below Selma. She sunk in ten min
