SIR,--I have TO acknowledge the receipt
of your letter Of yesterdays date, accom-
panied by one from Capt Salter, Of the Brit
ish ship "Glenview," !" detailing the pariicu-
lars of your humane conduct, in rescuing,
at great risk, from the wreck of that vessel,
the master, officers and crew, consisting of
% individuals, and your having provided
them with clothing, subsisted them on board
your ship for three weeks, and treated them
throughout with the greatest kindness.
For this conduct, beg to offer you my
cordial thanks, and to assure you of the
gratitude of the persons who owe their lives
to you. Such instances of generosity and
humanity are by no means uncommon in the
American merchant service; and shall
have great pleasure, as have had on SINH
lar occasions, in reporting the circumstances
Of the case for the consideration of Her
Majesty's Government am, sir, ag

FIRE AND EXPLOSION OF STEAMBoILER.
Tuesday morning, at 6 O'Clock, heavy
explosion was heard in every part of the
city, followed by an alarm Of FIRE. 1t was
soon ascertained that the Rolling Mill, op-
posite the Gas Works, was on fire. We
learn that fire was kindled, as usual, under
the boilers, at an early hour, preparatory to
going to work-that from some cause the
boilers exploded, scattering fire in every di-
rectlon, and severely injuring the watchman
OF the premises. The flames were extin-
guished without material injury, though
there was considerable loss. The damage
sustained is estimated, by the proprietors,
Sellers s. Co., at $1,000. The works will
be stopped about two weeks. The cause of
the explosion is ascertained to be defect
IN the iron at a particular spot--C Gin. Times.

Mr.. JOHN B. GoUGH.-We last week had
the pleasure of a call from our friends Mr..
and Mrs. John B. Cough, as they passed
through Worcester, on their way to spend
Thanksgiving" with some of their friends
in Boylston. Although strong in resolution
against the future wles ofAlcohol, Mr.. Cough
is yetpainfully ,oeak in body, and will not
probably for some months to come, be able
tobear the labor, and excitement of publicly
advocating the cause Of cold water from the
tee-total rostrum. The friends of temper
ance must therefore be patient, and work
themselves the harder, until he RECEIVERS his
strength, again to cheer them onward with
his voice of exhortation, and warning.

promptly turned out The fire originated
IN the Lard Oil Factory Of Mr.. J. Shipley,

at tavern in this State were discussing the
question Of capital punishment when one
remarked, 81 know it is right; for the bible
says, on these two commandments hang all

to hang the prophets, know tits right to
hang murderers," u5 Dfgg

An unfortunate accident occurred lately on
board the Saratoga. One of the men went
aloft to adjust something around the light
ming rod on the mainmast, and by some
means the iron spindle to which its point is
attached, became disengaged, and fell from
his hands. When he saw it about to fall, he
cried stand from UNDER" the sailors warn
ing to those below him. AT that moment,
mldshlpman T. looked up, and the point Of
the spindle entered his upper lip on the
right side, carrying away two or three of
the teeth, passing through the tongue near
Its base, and out of the throat inside of the
carotid artery on the left side of the neck.
The escape was hair-breadth,n for if the
artery had been opened, he would in all
probability have died in few minutes.-
