    Heart Htmllng Disaster.
Loss or Tim STFAMnoAt SiiF:rEi:iF.s am One
Hi Mimni Livks. The St. Louis Democrat of the
Oth itist. says tliut the city was thrown into con
sternation tlm dn y previous by the announce
ment thut the steamboat Sheperdess, from Pitts
burg, bail slink in sight of ihnt city, about mid
night tho night previous, and tlmt from 10 to 100
lives were lost by the awful catastrophe ! The
night was extremely colJ, and to this fact it is
mainly owing thut many were drowned, who o
therwise might have reached the shore. We
subjoin all the particulars which have been as
certained, from the Gazette of the evening of the
4th :
'The Sheperdess was from the Ohio river, was
commanded by ('apt. 1'owell or Powers, (we
could not understand which.) who had recently
purchased and thoroughly repaired her. She left
Pittsburg some six or eight days ago, with a crew
of from ten to fifteen persons, and at the time of
the accident had upwards of-il) passengers on
board, a very large number, when we consider
the lateness of the season. The boat enrountered
no usual obstacle, until last evening, about half
past 1 1 o'clock, when -be struck a snag at Cahnkta
Pond, about three mile." below the city, and sank
immediately, and before a general alarm could
be given. The mate bad but a moment In-fore
reported five fathoms water, and yet be had not

jumping overboard and gaining the htu ric.iiio I
deck when the boat Mink. The time, tin- snd-
denncss of the accident, the unprepared state of j
the passenger, th" appalling character of the
danger, tho intense roldnes of the night, (the
coldest of the season.) all operuteil to cause an
agonizing scene. Men, women and children, al
most naked and partially submerged in the water.
Were calling for their relatives, or passing to
and fro in chaotic confusion, endeavoring to ob
tain the means of self preservation : while others
threw themselves into the river, and were drown
ed. Many incidents connected with this sail affair
nre very distr-ssing. A young lady, who was
suffering from pleurisy, was drawn through one
of the state-room doors up to the hurricane deck
when the boat careened; but she was so debili
tated by pain and fl ight as to be unable to stand :
she was accordingly laid upon one of the wagons
w ith which the boat was freighted; ami upon tin
Vessel niakiiiganolher lurch, she was precipitated
into the wat'-r! Four children also pcrish-d
from exposure, while being convoyed from the
wreck to the shore. The captain, when last re
cognized, was climbing nun n the irons which
support the chimneys. lie is sttp)iocd to be
drowned ; also, the carpenter, who was acting
engineer. Th- greatest loss of life was sustained
w hen the cabin separated liotn the hull. One of
'In- iwssengers lloated upon a portion of the wreck
is far as Vide I'oche, w hen he was relieved from
lis uncomfortable situation.

The disgraceful act !
ol prize lighting was p -rp -tiated in the lu-iglihor
hood of Pitt.-buig on Friday hut. (Jeoige Spen
cer, a foreigner, and Italph Jackson, both resi
dents of that city, having; some misiiiidei standing,
agreed to settle the afiair by lighting it out.
Having made all the necessary arrangements thev
repaired to the place accompanied bv their sec
onds. The stakes were one hundred dollars a
side. A Mr. Jones, reputed tube all edd Kllglish
piize fighter, was Spencer's sec I, and John
Aikius the recoiid of Jackson. Thev fougth nine
rounds, each of which was closed by Spencer ei
ther falling or being knocked dow n by Jackson.
Alter the light had progressed thus far, it was put
a stop to by the arrival of Shei if! Trovillo. Spen
cer was cousideraldy injured about the face, and
Jackson received oneoi two blow son his head.

There inn ton-i,lorabo ntuhrrak lately in the
way offrpiipairfri in New York. Several four
horso vehicles have made their apjiearauee, dri
ven by tho younj men who own them. I have
noticed also a new curricle in beautiful ta;te,
(driven with a steel bar over the horses' bucks,)
and a tilbury with twoseivanU in livery, one
ui) the seat with his master, and another on i
horseback, following as on outrider. We aro

to have a masked bill th.s evening, and a etcc
pie-chase is to comeolToil the 20th, (Viscount
fU itTUAMi otic of the riders, Siiii each coinpe-
titor entering- a thoiisae.Ulollar slake for the
u inner.) I shall be ut too ball, not the stee-
pie-chase ior a hurso must have iron lepa to
run over a frozen pluuohed field, and a man
must have a less use lor lnslilb than 1, who
would risk a full n,N,n nurfacc like broken
tones. The Viscount has wot) several ftee-
ile-chases in I'nglaud, and has hud sutnc rouoli
ridinir alter tho Arabs in Algiers so I would
bet on him unless there happened to Lea fox
hunting Irishman among- the competitors.
There are ix riders, I tinilera'uii(!, and one of
them with six thousand dollars of course, and
probable six horses will be ruined and one or
two necks broken. Fortunately, there la a tu
pcrfluity o!' liorcb and yuunj uiwn.
Certain Chnntcters.
At present there's a numerous class
I wish that I could reach 'em
With w hat they could not resist
In feeling lessons teach 'em
On Sabbath days they hang around
The entrance to our churches ;
"J'would do them good if some would try,
What virtue there in birch is.
They nod, or smile, or make remarks,
Whene'er a female passes
And sometimes have the impudence
To ipii. them through their glasses.
And thus they stand about the door,
Till every one has passed in ;
If e'er you notice such you'll find
They always are the last in
They reach the pews and take their seats
With ipiite a genteel twirling
Then raise their hand to see if still
Their hair is smooth or curling.
Oli, liuw distressing it must be.
And make them feel so humbled.
When they have oiled ami curled the hair
To have it rudely tumbled.
And when the minister expounds
The si ript tires true ami holy.
Their eyes are on some fair ones near,
And these ttbsoih them wholly.
When Church is out they gather near
The door in little clusters,
Like a ci i tain class at theatres,
1 'eliominated busters.
They sometimes talk ami laugh,
I'm sure 'tis ipiite becoming !
And in the face of uorlhy men
It cannot be assuming !
The ladies out. they then retire
To some devoted corner,
Wh-re by tle ir freak-- ami stale rem.iiks
They gain distinguished honor
