Sir Robert Peel, in his address to his Tamworth
constituents, says he is a decided enemy to unmerited pen-
sions. Was not Sir Robert a member of the Duke of Wel-
lington's Administration when the attempt was made to quar-
ter two junior Lords of the Admiralty on the country? As
Sir Robert concurred to this attempt, he must, from his en-
mity to unmarked pension!, have considered these function-
caries as having merited the provision intended for them at
the public expense; Sir Robert, therefore, can perhaps point
out the eminent services rendered by them to their country.

Suer ; William 'Yates Peel, Eta Farl of Lincoln, Viscount

STEAM EXI'LOBIoN Stititit 1/Aftplirst, LIN-
COLNSIIIRE.—On the night of Thursday, the 11th instant,
about eleven o'clock, a tremendous explosion was heard by the
inhabitants of South Ferriby and Ferriby Sluice, Lincolnshire,
occasioned by the bursting of the §teatil boiler belonging to
Mr. Franklin's corn-mill, situate at Ferriby Sluice, and about
a mile from Ferriby. Mr. and Mrs. Franklin, with their in-
fant child, had a most providential escape, having just the mo-
ment before removed from the window, which was blown in by
the explosion, and a mass of bricks driven dirt)* with the
greatest violence, splitting a table and chair to pieces. Mr.
Franklin's son, who, together with another young man, had
been attending the engine, had tll9O a marvellous escape, hav-
ing but a moment before left the mill and entered the house
to obtain a candle, and was talking to his father and mother in
a corner of the room, the windows of which were driven in.
A servant lad had a most narrow escape, having gone for a
battle of straw, and being on his return when the explosion
took place, most providentially was sheltered by the wind-
mill ; had he been three yards either one way or the other, he
must have been killed by the flying bricks. The broken boiler
was found in a Yield near the mill, at a distance of about 150
yards. It had been separated in the same manner as the one
which exploded at Hull, leaving the bottom on the fire place.
The engine was driving at 401bs. to the square inch ; the
safety valve was set at solbs., and, of course, had never acted ;
and the boiler was said to be capable of carrying 7olbs. ; there
was more than sufficient water in the boiler. It was erected
about three years ago, since which time, it had been used as
occasion required ; when there was not sufficient wind to work
the mill, it took the mill works. A galloway in an adjoining
stable was killed by the falling upon it of the materials of the
building, but there was no loss of human life : not an hour be-
fore, a farrier and several others had been bleeding the pony,
which makes the escape of life still more remarkable. The
damages occasioned by the accident is supposed to be about
2001. The property, is
,pot insured.—Hull Advertiser.
