PASSAGE OF THE TARIEr BILL

The Great Tariff bill, after having nnder-
gone pretty thorough discussion, and fair
trial of all amendments proposed or sugpes.
ted TO it, finally passed the House of Repre-
sentatives on Saturday evening BY majority
of four votes Instead of four however, Il. e
majority would, we believe, have been ten
or even twenty times as many, if all who be-
lieved the bill ought TO pass had voted in
favor of it.
Upon the final vote the House was unu-
sually full All the absentees Except per
haps MIR. WIsE) are believed TO have been
absent from necessity. If all had been pres
ent, and the Speaker had also voted, the
majority would have been about the same.
But, to save the bill and ensure its passage,
there is no doubt that, had it been even re-
jected on its first trial, that vote would have
been reconsidered, and the bill passed by a
sufficient majority of votes.-Nat. Intel.
The Yeas and Nays upon its final passage
were as follows:-
YEAS-l16 NAYS-11s.
Is southern wings voted against the tar
if, two Tyler men. Gilmore & Mallory, and
every locofcco north and south except Par
meter.
The Absentees are Messrs. Henry, Hunt,
Rayner and T. w. Williams, (4) Wings F;
Messrs. Colquitt, Ferris, Lowell, Oliver,
Sweeney and Westbrook, (6) Loco -Foros /;
and Messrs Profit and Wise. (2) Tyler men /;
making IL Absences. Mr. Hastings is dead /;
and the speaker with the ll6 for the bill and
liz against it. makes up DAP, the whole num-
number of the House.
After our correspondents letter, published
yesterday, was closed, the House non con-
Cured with the Committee in the following
amendments:
Changing the duty on unenumerated ar
ticles from 30 per cent. I'D uatorem, TO . per
cent. OH raw materials, and TO So per cent.
on manufactured articles: Yeas 80, Nays
100. Laying and removing 90 per cent. of
duties on certain articles according as the
duties in foreign countries on tobacco, wheat,
-four and rice vary: Yeas 81, Nays 1876. In
relation to the Warehousing system: Yeas
95, Nays 11s. Allowing drawback on for
egn wheat: Yeas IS, Nays Al. Allowing
drawbacks on Manila cordage: Yeas 6S,

the Yeas were ZIG, Nays Ill. The bill pas

Tur Pers,nENr,s REASONS.

1t will be recollected by our readers that
when it was announced to the House, some
little time ago, by message from President
Tyler that he had signed the Apportionment
and District Bill. but had filed certain "rea-
sons" thereto appertainng, in the Secretary
of states office, MIR. Adams expressed him
self very strongly in censure of such a step,
and moved select committee on the sub
iect. Such committee was raised and Mr..
A. was made chairman. On the 10th inst.
he reported, recommending solemn protest
OH the part of the House against the ;nnoua-
tion. The report was ordered to be printed.

DREADFUL STEAMBOAT EXPLO
SION ON THE WESTERN WATERS
Correspondence Of the Tribune.

BALTIMORE, July 10. IS42.
The Western Mail this morning brings
US an account of an appalling disaster at the
mouth of the MISSOURI River, on SUNDAY,
The Sd inst. The following particulars Of
the disaster are furnished by Capt. Eaton, I"
the steamboat Iatan, which was lying near
the place al the time.
The steamboat Edna collapsed both iues
of her larboard boiler at a quarter past four
o'clock on Sunday morning, Sd inst, al
The mouth of Missouri river.
The Edna landed at the mouth about
O'Clock that morAing. The Itana was ly-
ing III re, and the Edna landed on the out
side OF her, and laid in such position that
it was difficult for the latan 10 get away
from the shore. However after little troub-
lie, the latan got under way, and had run
three or fout hundred yards, when the Edna
showed out from the shore. Her bow could
not have been more than one hundred fee;

| was looking at the Edna when the cas-
uaIty happened. and had observed her some
time before the accident, ! did not think
she had unusually high steam. J am of the
opinion that some obstruction existed either
in the supply pipe. or in the force pump
which prevented the usual quantity of wafer
from going into the boilers.
The number of wounded is SO. mostly
Germans Some two or :hree were blown
into the river and saved, and it is supposed
that two or three others were lost The cab
ms OF the Edna and Iaran are filled with The
wounded. and they are receiving every at
tention from The passengers and others that
can be besto~ed upon them.
As soon as the accident happened. the
