BURNING OF THE STEAMBOAT GAINESVILLE,
AND SERIOUS Loss OF LIVES. The steamboat
Tributary, which arrived here yesterday, brought
intelligence Of the burning of the GAINESVILLE, while
on her passage from this port to Memphis. On the
2saDinst, about four o'clock, p M, she was disco
vered to be on fire, while near Ozarks Island, five
miles below the mouth of the Arkansas river. The
fire originated in the wood-rack, ON the starboard
side Immediately abreast of the boilers and spread
so rapidly that in less than five minutes the whole
boat was enveloped in flames. As soon as the fire
was discovered, the boat was run ashore, when two
explosions soon followed, one of the boilers and one
OF gmpowder. Five negroes and six or eight deck
passengers, among whom We're two young ladies,
were lost. Capt. Holmes, after having swan ashore
with his wife, returned to the wreck, and while en-
deavorng to assist others, persisted in the flames.

boat, $4,000
