DREADFUL STEAMBOAT EXPLOSION. -
The steamboat H. Kenny, Capt. Miller,
exploded on the Tombigbee river, Ala
bama, on Saturday last. Thirty persons
were killed or arc missing, twelve arc
badly maimed, and two shockingly seal
ded. The boat sunk a few minutes after
the explosion. The wounded were con
veyed to the Marine Hospital, where the
best medical assistance was rendered
to the unfortunate sufferers.

May. Thirty deck passengers,
the crew,
and Captain Holmes, were lost. The
cabin passengers were saved.
FemALE CLUBS.—AII the male popula.
Lion of Paris are formed into clubs, and
now it appears the women have been
seized with the same gregarious propen
sity. There was recently a meeting of
the females' club held in one of the thea
tres, to organize work for women, on
principles of Fraternity, and to secure
to each at least one franc per day. Le
Droit gives the following account of the
affair :
"It would be impossible to describe
the spectacle presented by the club de
femmes, on Thursday evening, under the
presidency of the Citoyenne N
We cannot give an idea of the tumult,
the disorder, the uproar, which took.
place. There was nothing but cries,
hisses, vociferations, pressing, crushing,
even fighting. The windows and the
glasses were smashed, but no speaker
of either sex could obtain a hearing,
not even the Abbe Cliatel, not even the
Citoyenne N-. The sitting at
length broke up in the midst of univer
sal laughter, and was postponed to an
other day ; but men arc not to be admit
ted another time."
MAINE SENATOR.—The Legislature of
Maine has elected the lion. HANNIBAL
HAIIILIN a Senator of the United States
to fill the vacancy caused by the decease
of the HOB. Juno FAIR FIELD, and occupy
the Seat now temporarily filled by Mr.
MOORE under an appointment front the
Governor. Mr. IlnntLin has served two

sentatives, and while there was a friend
of the Wilmot Proviso. He is, of course,
a Locofoco.
AN ARMY OF THEM.-It is estimated
that 600,000 men will take a part in the
Presidential election of 1848, who, in
1844, were between the ages of 17 and
21. And it is further estimated that
eedlards of them are Whigs.
FOREIGN NEWS.
The Acadia arrived at Boston a few
days ago, with one week later news.—
The news possesses interest, but we
have no room for details.
The surface of political affairs in
France was somewhat more calm.—
There is a lull, for a moment, in Paris,
but the disposition is tending to violence
and mob government. The Provinces
are frightfully disaffected. A dreadful
insurrection had occurred at Naples,
and many lives had been lost.
A new demonstration had taken place
at Vienna, which had led to the flight of
the Emperor of Austria, but it was ho
ped that lie would be induced to return.
The English Minister at Madrid had
received his passports, and the affair
had created no little excitement in Eng-
land.
A furious outbreak had taken place
at Seville, and Lyons was temporarily
in the hands of the Terrorists.
The British House of Lords had re
jected the bill for the Emancipation of
the Jews.
Great excitement prevailed at Berlin
on the opening of the National Assembly,
and Mitchell, the Irish repealer, has
been convicted.

Barbes, confined in prison at Vincen

A GENUINE LOCOFOOO.—An exchange
paper tells a story of a gentleman in
l3erks county, a member of the Demo
cratic party', whose attachment to regu
lar nominations was happily illustrated.
"The Convention have nominated Folk,"
said a wag to him, who had obtained
possession of the rest) news. " Polk !
just the man we want !" " No, no, I
was mistaken," said the wag; " Wood
bury—Woodbury is the nominee."—
,I " Woodbury ! Good ! Nobody can run
so well as Woodbury. He is the best
man in the party." Well, after all, it is
neither Polk nor Woodbury, but Cass."
" Better still! Three cheers for Cass!
Who can run so well as Cass !
Oz'rAliss Rachael B. Wallace, late of
Burlington, by her last Will, bequeathed
to Burlington College the sum of two
thousand dollars; of which the interest
is to be applied, under the direction of
the Bishop, to aid such candidates for
holy orders as he may select, in pursu
ing their theological studies at Burling

ID-Sarah Jane Pinkerton, who was
tried in Boston for the murder of her
mother, was Requited by the jury, on the
grounds that she did not know the effects

Jury were absent three hours.
CAse VS JEFFERSON.—The Louisville
Journal says that the first appearance
of Gen. Cass upon the public stage, was
signalized by a series of ferocious at
tacts upon Mr. Jefferson, in a series of
papers written in New Hampshire, which
wil shortly be re-published. Yet this is
the man who speaks of the Whigs as
Hamiltonian Federalists !

of the Whigs of Philadelphia at the

last week, at which addresses were made
by Mayor Swift, Ex-Governor Jones, of
Tennessee, Hon. James Cooper, and Gen.
