 Steamboat accidents seem of late to have multiplied so fast that our paper now scarcely ever goes to press without having new one to record. Since our last publication day, we have received intelligence of two recent disasters oc- casiened by the explosion of steam.- About ten days since, near the mouth of Cumberland river, one of the boiler heads of the steamer Huntress, was blown oH-two men scalded to death, and two more were blown overheard. On Saturday last the Steamboat Gale doEia, Russell master, bound for Louis vile with about 300 deck and cabin passengers on board, left this landing in apparent good order, and in a most beau tifal styIe-in which condition she made a fine run. until she came within about six miles of New Madrid, when, at about II o'clock, On Sunday morning, one of her boilers exploded, and carried away halfof the boiIer-deck. One ofthc En- giaeers, Ia brother to the Captain,) two of the crew, and three deck passengers were blown off and have not since been found. Eleven of the deck passengers and firemen, at the date of our infornaa- ton, remained badly wounded. The cry of fire, which was given immediately after the explosion, oecasioued Hiaffivy to precipitate themselves into the river, some of whom were doubtless lost 1t

 .exsss is ROW la very prosperous #condition-There has been more enli- grafton this winter than ill several years past. The road Is at present full of mo- vers. This colony is also overIlowing wlthspeculaters from the United States.
 h anticipation Of the province falling into the hands of the United States, lands have taken an egregious rise. From two to five dollars per acre can now be ob- talned for first rate lands. Some of the purchasers can conlmalld any amount of capital. A recent expedition against ssiiiii4isss the Wake Indians has resulted in the exploration of a part of our grant hith- erto but little known.& The troops pro- eeeded along on the dividing ridge be- tween the Brasos and Colorado for 25O miles above the St. Antonio road. am assured by at least twenty persons,s en- tirely to be relied on, that they travelled for days together over timbered hilly up. lands of the most fertile description, a. bounding in the real limestone rock. with an abundance oft best of springs. 4tleast one halfoft the expedition would desert this colony for that if they had any way of securing lands up there.
 The hills, the valleys of the limestone rock and the pure spring water, have charms for them that are irresistible. There is at least ten times the amount of good land in Leftwich's grant, ever imagined by any one before this sum- mer. The truth is, sueha body of we'll timbered, well watered upland in the south is entirely unknown any where else. The dividing ridge between the waters of the Rrasos and the Colorado, 1 is within two miles of the latter river. \ league ofthe land in Leffwich's grant secured by settlement, could now be sold for S3000.--JVash0ille BmneY.

We have read General Iarrison's pamphlet, containing his reply to cer- tain charges which were made against him by the Government of Colombia. The main object of the General is to show that he did not interfere in the in- ternal affairs of that republic; but it seems to us that what he has here dis closed of his feelings, conversations and connexions, warranted strong suspicion on the part of the government. Before he entered the capital, he formed opin- ions Shot very favorable to the existing rulers" while acting minister, he wrote very earnest, copious letter to Bolivar, of counsel and exhortation against the design of establishing royalty; but the letter was not sent until after he was superseded by Moore. This epistle is included in the pamphlet. Iii regard to it. the General remarks-
 might be considered as an intermed- ding, presnmptueus man: hut cared not for that. l determined Bolivar should find that there was one person who had sufi- cient conhd dence in his magna animity to lay before him plain, naked, undisguised truths, deeply interesting to his country and to his own fame.o
 He adds
 < now regret, whatever blame might have incurred from so doing, that did not send the letter when 1t was first written, as it would have prevented the revolt in An tioquia, as well as the revolution in ' ene- zueIa.
 General Harrison acknowledges that < lie knew of the intended attempt Of General Cordoya to overthrow the au- thority of General Bolivar and also, 4 that there was design on foot, by another party, with the expected aid of certain foreign powers, to keep the au- thority at present exercised by General Bolivar, permanentlyin his hands, either with the title of Emperor, King, or President for life, with a reyersion to some European prince" He expresses entire confidence that the government of Colombia were informed that the de- signs of General Cordova were conau- mcated to hin, and heasserts that they possess no farther evidence that he was connected with Cordova, or afforded him the least eountenance or assistance. In this pamphlet, the government of Colombia is represented as virtual despotism; and the army and the sbe- nighted and benighteui,sg monks as the l sources of all the evils which atfiict the country. General Harrison thinks that 1 if Bolivar should retain the command of the army, the civil administration will be entirely the creature of his will that Venezuela will not submit without sangtifars struggle, that the restora- ton of Colombia viii be ultimately ac- eonplished, even in spite of the Libera- tor, if the freedom of the press, the trial by jury, and the right to meet to consult on their public affairs, should be left to the People, who are "brave, intelligent and honest. .'-.Nat.
