The papers announce the death of the Hon. MT Kin nard Member of Congress from the State of India ma, who was recently injured by the bursting of the boiler of steamboat He was it i, said, on his way to be married to young lady of Philadelphia.
 The number of lives destroyed by the blowing up ,of steamboats in the United States within the past three months has been very great, and it to us that unless something done to render the of these accidents less frequent it will become matter of serious discussion whether steam ought lon ger to be employed for purposes of navigation. A any rate if the lives and property of our citizens car be rendered more in the least degree by legs lative action, it should be resorted to without delay The Boston Gazette thus alludes to the mean chol, death of Mir. Kinnald
