MAsHINGToN, April %.
The committee appointed to take into considera-
ton the Presidents Message relative to the pull
ing OF bis snose, has been employed for sever
al days in h'aring evidence Messrs Dexter, Hard
ing and VI Lean have testified 10 the truth of Mr.
Jaryis's assertion to the insult offered and to-
day young Adams himself was brought before
them that he might tell his own story in his own
way, aud most bungng business he made OF il
ten. Greene acted as the COlonei's counsel, and
twisted and turned young Adams during the time
that he was giving his testimony, until the Hon.
Secretary contradicted HIMSELF pumply, two Of
three imes-in short his own statement confirmed
all Mr.J sad and covered his friends with nortifi
cation. Gorharn at first attempted 10 keep Adam :
out OF the fire, which he was eydeitly running
into, but finding what sfffF he hal to deal with,
delivered him up victim 10 his own folly. be
Committee will probably report the Jacfs of the
case, (Which viii confirm MIR. Jarvis's slatement
aud relieve him from all censure) and say that they
do not think the dignity Of Congress was intend
ed TO be or has been inlringed upon. and that il
Mr. Jarvis has committed 4 breach Of the peace,

STEAM BOAT DISASTER.

The Louisville, KY. Focus, received last even
ing contains the following additional particulars, re-
lative to the unfortunate disaster on the Mssssip-
pi.-" The Car of Commerce, commanded by Cap
tain j. Cock, and owned by Messrs. Walter, Cock
and Hardin, of this place, burst her boiler about
10 o'clock on Wednesday last, the l4th ut in the
Canadian reach, Mississippi, about 100 miles below
the Oho--She had taken in wood about three
miles below, and while running under high pres
sure ofsteam the force pump was discovered to be
out of order. The eng inc was stopped, minute
or two, while the pump righted, without blow
ine off the steam and when the eng inc was started
again. about the third stroke the stern head OF the
middle boiler gave way, and drove the boilers tor
ward, with the end down on the bow. The stern
end being thus elevated, sent the contents OF the
boilers backwards on the upper deck, carrying all
before them, and producing terrible havoc among
the deck passengers. Nearly fifty persons were In
liured of whom few were killed at the instant.
The whole number known to be lost, by the latest
accounts from the boat, was between fifteen and
twenty-and many others were so severely injured,
that there was no hope of their recovery.
The whole loss OF lives it is supposed will be up
wards of twenty. Most of this destruction was
caused by scalding. The sufferers who were not
Instantly killed in most deplorable condition
The captain escaped unhurt. One ofthe pilots was
slightly injured. Both the engineers were dead, and
nearly all the rest of the persons belonging to the
boat. Only one of the cabin passengers was inJur'
ed, and he is dead. The damage to the boat her
self was much less than might be expected from the
terrible destruction among the people on board"

SpEcULATIoNs ON THE LATE FOREIGN News.
There seems to be very little doubt that war
will ravage part of Europe, and spread death and
devastation over every place exposed to its sanguln-
AIRY nroads. The Turk is suen, vindictive, and
proud he cannot learn prudence from the past,
nor take counsel of the danger that threatens him.
Counting on his millions of subjects for support,
and building temple to his hopes of success, on
the enthusiasm and religious frenzy OF his follow
ers, he will lnger and loer around the remem-
brsnce of former grandeur, when Turkey trowned
destruction on Europe; and while tanning the flame
of his passions, and preparing tardiy for fighting the
thunder Of the Russian cannon, bursting like the
peal of Heaven upon his pro, inces will arouse him
x
folly of his conduct. The other powers who, it
was supposed, would interfere, have neutrazed
themselves declaratvely from the contest; and the
hardy Muscoyites, and the fierce Mahometans are
left to settle the question themselves. Russia, how
ever affects great moderation, and disclaims all in
tention of conquering European Turkey, which she
certainly has it in her power to effect. England
is jealous of her great northern ally, and since the
conquest by Russia of a part of Persia, she sees
that the Russians have much more easy approach
to the East India possessions, which they view with
no friendly eye, as those possessions are jewel,
precious in the esteem of Great Britain. Russia,
however, will cross the boundary between the two
countries and Turkey, being invaded, will resist
that resistance will call forth the energies of the in
vadcrs; and compel them to push their victorious
way into the heart Of European Turkey ltthey dc
not then make peace, their fate will not long balance
The mosque and the mlnaret, the battement and the
tower the great city, will crumble at the feet of the
invading conqueror, and all the pride, magnlticence
and glory that once FURNISHED the brow of the Sui
tan will wither and decay, and like the baseless
fabric of vision, leave not "a wreck behind.
few days however, will lead us to "a more complete
acquaintance with the great Developments that are
about to be made --Trcn r. finer.

As much has been written and published, OF late

Consumption, it may be gratifying to the public to
know, that among the Shawan9se Indians, from
time mmemoral, this plant has been used in dseas-
es of the Lungs, Pleurises and Colds and that it
has been found eticacious in cases OF the Cholic.
They also apply by way of poultce to bruised and
swelled joints.
The genuine Lverwort grows plentifully in the
woods near this place. 1t is at this time showing
itself above the ground-first appearance covered
with down. like hoar-frost In the month OF June
it is in perfection, to gather for preserving.
The stalk is at all times downy, and this IS char,
