VICTO RY.
WING MAJORITY 62O.
Baltimore Redeemed -Unprece-
dented Wing Triumph "A
Wing Majority of geo.!

No whig victory in any part Of the Union
can compare at oil with that achieved yes
tcrday by the Wings Of this Congressional
district. JOHN r. KENNEDY, the Wing
candidate, is elected to Congress by maori.
ty Of not less than eight hundred votes, in
the district, and has received in this city, o
majority of upward Of six hundred.
1t is impossible to describe the enthusiasm
which pervaded all ranks Of the people as
the results in the different wards were an.
nounced. The large space in front of the
Chronicle Office was filled with dense crowd
Of not less than f.e thousand persons, who
made the welkin ring with their loud &C
claims as victory after victory was proclaim
ed or the other proceedings Of the nigh,
VIC shall take another occasion to speak.
The result Of this election not only deter.
mines the sense Of the people of this district
in regard to the sub-Treasury BILL but must
be taken as furnishing incontestable evi-
dence Of their approval Of the registry law
the expediency and propriety Of which they
persisted in making al element Of the con
test. We have routed them upon this ant
all the other points ut issue, and we are now
prepared to 60 forward, in the full conf
dence Of our strength, to other contests und
other victories.

Centennial DISCOURSE. We have been
permitted by the Rev. ARTHUR A. Ross to
select for our paper to-day, few passages
from his valuable Centennial Discourse, de-
livered at the recent celebration Of the set
element of this Island, IN anticipation of its
publication in pamphlet form. They will af-
ford to that portion Of our readers, who were
denied the pleasure Of hearing Mr.. Ross,
some means ofjudging of it's literary merits,
and will lead them, we trust, to a better ac-
quaintancc with the whole Of his instructive
and we'll digested performance.

(From tho Nat. In.sllisencsr Of Saturday.

We received information from Fredericks
burg last evening, that there was no doubt Of
the election Of Mr.. Slaughter, the Wing can
didate, over Mr.. Banks. the Van Buren sub
Treasury candidate, for Congress, to I'LL the
vacancy made by Mr.. Patton's resignation
This is quite an unexpected and gratifying
Wing triumph, as the district was thought to
be the most decided sub. Treasury district in
the state of Virginia, and Mr.. Banks is q
most popular gentleman and for many years
past Speaker Of the House Of Delegates.

FATAL STEAMBOAT ACCIDENT

FATAL STEAMBOAT ACCIDENT.
| By the New York Commercial Advertiser,
OF Monday, we are furnished with the par
ticnars Of another steamboat accident on the
waters Of the Ohio. Owing to the reckless
conduct and sheer mismanugcment of Capt.
Perkins, the commander of the steamboat
MosELLE, that fine new boat was blown ND.
on Wednesday, April 25lh, about 6P. M.
while passing in front Of the city of Cincin-
natl, by the bursting Of her boilers, and aw =
ful to say out Of TWO HUNDRED PERSONS on
board, the estimated loss of lives is ONE
HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE Among the
unhappy victims Of this accident Capt. Per-
kins, the commander, was thrown by the ex-
plosion entirely into the street and was picked
up dead and dreadfully mapgled. The Mo-
sELLE, says the Cincinnati Wing, was new
brog boat, and had recently made several
exceedingly quick trips to and from this
place. The captain of the boat was desirous
OF showing off her great speed az she passed
the city, and to overtake and pass another
boat, which had left the wharf for Louisville
short time before him. Dearly has he paid
for his silly ambition! Immediately after
the explosion occurred, the boat began to
sink rapidly, and drift from the shore by
which numbers were drowned. Our limits
preclude any further particulars.
