NEW ORLEANS:
JRDAY MORNING, NOYEMBER sO.


The Reverend Gentleman returned to town on
last Wednesday evening. He has been the guest
of our respected fellow-ctizen, Maunsel White,
Esq, for the past week, at his plantation, Deer
Range" The high estimate entertained of Father
Mathews labOrs, by his hOspitable entertainer, may
be judged from the suboined letter, handed to the
Reverend Gentemans Secretary, at the moment
OF his departure it contained a draft for hun
dred dollars and affords pleasing illustration of
that quiet and unobtrusve benevolence which,
springing from an exalted sense of what is due to
services freely rendered in the of humanity,
becomes of the purest satisfaction, alike
credltable to the donor and the recipient:

Mr.. WEBsTER AT JENNY LIMBS CONCERTS
Mr.. Webster attended the concert last evening at
TrpIsr Hall, and appIauded ardently as any
body else. He seemed to be in raptures with the
Nightingale, and kept constantly looki at her
through a glass. Between the first and second
parts he was recognized, and a chesr was called
for hun, when the most enthusiastic cheering fol-
lowed, with waving of hats and handkerchefs, and
the aud ence all rose to their feet Mr. Webster
acknowledged the compliment by rising and also

Our city is shrOuded in gluUn, p oduced by the
death, burial or shipping TO friends and loved ones
the dlsfgnred bodies of the unfortunate sufferers
by the destructive explosion Of the steam-r An
.onete Douglass. When our paper went to press,
Tuesday night, only three were known 10 be dead.
Yesterday, eight others died A. futile of Pike,
AdOlphus Carter of Wilcox, N. NJ. King of Georgia.
T. IL. LOckeit and John Cole of Marion, Ala, S.
A. Watts of Dallas, Samuel Montgomery, bar
keeper, J. A. Gosnn, and three slaves; the
property of John CulbertsUn, the engineer one of
Dr.. Baldwin of Montgomery, and one the properly
Of Robert McCraw.
The bodies of McCord and Golson were escorted
to the boat by the Cadets of which company thew
were members. That of Mr.. King was committed
to its mother earth with due solemnity. Those of
Messrs. Lockett, Cole and Watts will be shipped
up the river this evening for burial by and among
| their friends. How many more DEATHS may follow
we are unable TO say. Hops are entertained that
| the other wounded will recover.
The scene, as detailed by the survivors, was be-
yOnd description awful. The groans and cries of
| the wounded, those who escaped unable to de-
scribe without shuddellng. Those sleeping or
| seated Immediately over the boilers were generally
The sufferers, as they fell through the cabin floor
into the boilers. LOckett, Cole and futile fell to-
gether, and, in their struggle amid the red hot iron
| and steam, were terribly burned. The flesh was
| burned entirely from the inside Of their hands Mr..
N5Oms also fell with them, but he is likely to re-
| cover, although the flesh is all burned from his
| hands, and his face badly burned.
| No aid could be rendered the wounded until they
reached the city, and their suiferings from o'clock
| in the morning until six at night in the language
of one of the sufferers, were beyond the power of
| language to describe.
An inquest held yesterday upon the bodies
OF those who died after reaching the city before
o'clock, and the jury will 90 into the examination
of witnesses in reference to the of this terri
bic calamity. We trust it will be a searching one,
| and If found to be owing to careessness the
| q
held to a strict accountability.
The names of the jurors summoned by Coroner
| Lewis are, George w. Tarleton, George Huggins,
| VIM H. Roberts, Robert H. Slough, Benjamin
Roberts and John A. Chapman.
Nh. Sheffield and family, of this city, who were
among the missing, reached the city yesterday
evening the Romeo. They were taken from h,
shore near Tat's Shoals unnjured, except from
alarm and exposure.
The iron chest Of the Douglass saved from
the wreck, but large portion of the baggage o
the passengers was lost. Mobile Advertiser 0

IMMENSE RAILROAD TRAvEL.-Some idea of
the travel between the city Of New York and Al
bany may be formed from the TACT that over six
hundred thousand passengers have passed over the
Hudson River Railroad during the time it has been
in OPERATION little more than nine months
When the road is completed 10 Albany, the travel
will be still further and largely increased.

as Just as they are happily expressed, from
the Ogdensbure Forum:
"rhe mission of the Whig party is
identified with the high hopes and aspra-

embraces those thoughts and sentiments
which burn in the bosom of patriots and
phianthropists. Improvement, "Eccel'

vplope the natural resources of our soil. TO
facilitate social intercourse and commerce

promore the advancement Of skill and ln>
