' Id the, hat four Bumbe.-ey the prog-rese of steamboats, both in thia count, nJ Europe, hii been reviewed. showing rnnf .'ueive'v tha advance of mechanical knowledge in both court true. 1 hia is a subject alwaya iDtereeting? but there ia ens page in hiatorjr, which, though tat, ia dark and gloom. To' thia page we flow turn, in a abort notice, of the accidents that have occurred to eteamboate, eince their inn wuuiiun ia nis cuiirury. ' Tha first afeamboat accident in thia country liappened in 1818 to the Washington, on the Ohio r:v$r. According to a letter to Congress by the Secretary of the Treasury, written in 1338, the whole number of ateamenginea of ev ery kind that were then in ise in the United States, vji4 3010; of that number 800 were in eteambufta, 350 in locomotives, nd 1850 in manufactoriea of different kinds. The number of accidents to steam enirinea nn , - s r to that lime, causing loss of life waa 261, of which number, 23U were in steamboats. The greatest loss nf life by steamboat accident waa by the collision, and ainking of the Mon mouth in 1837 on the Mississippi ; the number of lives lost was 300. The greatest low of life by the explosion of a steamboat was in 1S39, in the case of the Oro nok on the same; the number of lives lost was .139. The boilers of the steamboat Moselle blew up at Cincinnati, Ohio, destroying 120.persons. The greatest loss of life, by snagging, was in tha case of the steamboat St. Louis on the Mississippi in 1834, when there were 13 lives lost. The greatest lnes of life by shipwreck was in the case of the Home in 1827, on the coast of N. Carolina, when 100 persons were lost. The greatest loss of life, by the burning of a steamboat up to that time, waa in the case of the Men Sherhord on the Mississippi, in 1837. The number of steamboats lost, up to 1823 waa 23 During the year 1S37 no less than 80 steamboats were lost on the Western waters. During the ten years, from 1830 to 1840, eigh ty steamboats were lost by explosion, in the United States, by which means 780 persons were killed outright, an I 206 wounded badly, of which number 254 died from the injuries re ceived. . On the 11th of June, 1837, the steamboat Pulaski was destroyed by the explosion of one of her boilers while on passage from Charleston to Baltimore, rval 132 persons perished. About the same time a aimilar accident oc curred to the steamer Washington on Lake Erie, by which 40 lives were lost. One hundred and seventy lives were lost, by the destruction of the Lexington in 184,0. The particulars of thia sad disaster are familiar to every New Yorker, and therefore it would be worse then useless to repeat them. The burning of the 'Erie on Lake Erie in August, 1841, sent to their untimely graves 175 perrons and it is but a short ti.ne since our sympathies were aroused by the destruction of the ill-fated Swatlow. Accidents to steamboats are alarmingly fre quent, and Bcarce a newspaper reaches us from the South or West, but chronicles the destruc tion of one or more. As these accidents in nine cases out of ten happen through gross careless ness, the persons responsible should be punished aa the sacrifice of human life requires. This method 1 think, would soon put a stop to them. N. Y. Evening Gax. ' BaAwnasTa'a Pills cure all affections, simply beemee they make the blood pure ab.tract out of it tbosa qualities which produce disease, ind give to it those qualities which produce health. Now every solid part of the human frame is made from the blood, and the food ws ait is con varied into blood to supply tha waate our bod us are continually sustaining. 8o in the ordinary course of nature wa manufacture our entire bodies in about nine years, from the food taken into oar stomachs. Suppose the air wa have lived in for soma time has been loaded with matters detrimen tal to health, or our food for a long period lias been of an unwholesome kind, or that the mind has been much troubled for grief, anxiety, or great atten tion to any particular point ia sura to occasion bad effects in the blood. Any of these causes existing good blood cannot be supplied lo lbs body. But let Brandreth's Pills be used daily under these circumstance, in doses of from two to six pills, or as the case shall determine. Wast is their effect) It is to-carry off the impure matters from the blood, leaving only the good to renew every part of tha body. Wfist waa unaound now be comes sound, and the stomach sooa gets into so healthy a condition that even bad air or unwhole some food for a time are unable to injure the health materially.'
