PAINFUL ACCIDENT.-We regret TO learn TINT our
fellow citizen, Il. NJ. MEEKER has been seriously, if
not fatally, scaded, by the explosion of the boilers OF
the steamer American, a few miles below Madison.
We learn that he, in conjunction with another gentle
man, had just purchased the boat intending her for a
Wabash river trader. The to day will probably
bring us farther particulars.
The following is the account furnished by the Lou
isville Journal, Of the 2lst inst.
1.-THE American, a wheel boat, Captain Char
KY bound from Cincinnati for the Wabash river, busrt
her fore and aft cross-ppes about O'Clock yesterday
m rnlng at CARROTS landing, between Madison and
this city, where she had landed for passengers. Eight
persons scaded, three of them very dangerous
w. The steam tore up the flooring in the social hall,
in which the captain and second clerk, and two ne
groes who had just come board to take passage,
were at the time. The captain and clerk were stand
ing close together the time the explosion took place
and both were lifted up by the flooring, but strange
to relate the captain escaped unhur while the clerk
and the two negroes were dangerously scalded. The
steam passed from the social hall into some of the
state-rooms and the clerks Office scalding the first
clerk and first engineer who asleep in their
berths and who IN the hurry to exircate themselves
broke the glass In the doors of their rooms and
their hands severly.
The cross-p pipes connect the boilers and are imme-
dately over them. The second engineer who on
watch, escaped unhurt The damage TO the boat will
soon be repaired. She towed to this city by the
| ]. NJ. Niles. We suboin a list of the wounded:
| Samuel Price, lst engineer, very badly scalded in
the face aud hands cut by glass.
Mr.. Rockwell lsi clerk, slightly scalded and face
and hands cut by glass.
Mr.. Mear,* 2d clerk, dangerously scalded HIS
recovery is doubtful.
The two negroes. who came on board at CARROTS
landing, were dangerously scalded. They were Ia
ken on shore there.
A passenger named Symonds deck hand, and the
cook were slightly scalded.
*Tbs is undoubtedly Mr.. T. M. Meeker of this
city.

The astonishing success of the Hungarian Bal
sam, in the cure ofevery form ofconsumption,
warrants the American agent in soliciting for
tire atment the worst possible cases that can be
found in the community-cases that seek relief
in vain from any of the common remedies of
the day, and have been given up by the most
distinguished physicians as confirmed and in
durable. The Hungarian Batsam has cured
and will cure the most desperate of cases. II
is no qunck nostrum, but standard English
medicine of known and established efficacy -
Every family in the United States should be
supplied with it, not only to counteract the
consumptive tendencies ofthe climate but to
be used as preventive medicine in all cases
of colds, coughs, splitting blood, pain in the
side and chest, irritation and soreness of the
lungs, bronchitis, difficulty ofbreathing, hectic
fever, night sweats, emacation and general de-
bility, asthma, influenza, whooping- cough and

tree have been received, says the Boston Cul-
Hivator, irom near Ticonderoga, N. Y, where
'olone it propagated, bearing kind of APP
4,lc which has neither core nor seeds. The
origin was as follows: the top of young
tree was tent over and covered with earth,
which took root. The tree was then cut as
under. which stopped all connection with the
natural root of the tree, and by sprouts which
sprung from the top portion of the body, n
regular top was formed which produces this
fine iruit-a beautiful red, good sized, pleas

quarter off mile from home. Nothing was
seen of him until some hours afterward,
when large dog belonging to Eliphalet Da-
Wis, Esq, was found tenderly bringing back
the unfortunate little wanderer by the teeth.
Reaching the fence before Mr. Waite's house,
he found the gate closed, and the paings of
the fence too narrow TO admit him with his
charge; whereupen he commenced digging
under the srringer with the view of effecting
n passage into the house. Few better Sa-
mari,ans than this dog could be found even
in these days neutrality-suspicious. Trans
