For about Denty years had been suffering from Dys

Dreadful Steamboat xposion-Supposed
Loss of 100 Lives-Eifty dead bodies
Discovered
A dreadful steamboat explosion took
place here last evening, which from ITS
disastrous results has spread deep gloom
over our city. While the steamboat Louis
lana was starting from her wharf for St.
Louis, both boilers exploded, SCATTERING
her to atoms and killing, it is supposed,
about $50 persons besides badly injuring
many others. The steamers Storm and
Bostona, which had just arrived with a
large number of passengers, were lying
alongside and also sustained serious dam
age, both boats being much shattered.
The Louisiana was crowded with pas
sengers Already fifty dead bodies have
been recovered. The levee is literally
covered with the dead and dying. Arms,
legs, heads, and other parts Of the human
body were found scattered IN every direc-
ton. 1t Is not yet ascertained how many
have persisted by this dreadful ca astrophe,
but the number is believed to be not less
than one hundred and sixty souls, besides
many bodily and others morlally wound
ed,

A GALLANT ScLDER.-At the funeral
honors paid to Worth, Duncan and Gates,
Johu Van Rtren delivered an Grafton, in
which herelated the following anecdote
Of the former:
While General Scott was under char
ges by order Of General jackson, and a
court Of inquiry was investigating his
conduct in florida, party OF gentlemen
met in this city, and after dinner the
conversation TUNED upon the subject of
Scotps services. Worth indignant at
the proceeding, was describing the part
which Scott took in the battle of Niaga-
rp. He said that Scott's brigade was ad-
yancing towards evening under the GOV
er OF a wood, from which they were to
deploy into the open field; Scott had al
ready had one horse snot under him and
as the column were deploying, his sec
ond horse fell, and he became entanged
under it. The column wavered, and
| Worth then his youngest aid, rushing to
his assistance; dismounted, and rendered
him his horse saying, General can you
mount, the column falters for !eader?"
Scott Immediately mounted, and riding
to the head Of the column, cried out,
"Advance men! the nights our own
and Worth followed Scott, as his aid on
foot. At this moment a discharge of
grape from a single cannon FRUSTRATED
scott, he horse which he rode, and his
aid Worth. Scott and Worth were i'm
mediately carried to the rear, Scott ser-
ously, and " orth, asi was supposed,
MORALLY wounded. Attention was OF
course first paid 20 the commanding Off
Ger. After some time deep groan was
heard, apparently from the adjoining tent
and Scott, with that forgettulneas of him
self which distinguishes him on sach oc-
casions, begged the surgeon to repair to
the quarter whence the sound proceeded
and attend, as he said. s'to poor Worth
who must be dying.' Instead Of this as
Worth concluded, 'the cry of agony pro
ceeded from my faithful charger, who
had managed to drag himself upon three
legs to the edge OF my tent, where he
had LAID down to die.' Pausing for a
moment, while there was hardly a dry
eye in the company, he added--:'I beg
your pardon gentlemen, find that, III de

tally led to describe my own SERVICE"
