AWFUL srEAMEoAT DISASTER ON THE OHIO

terrible steamboat disaster, attended by fearful loss
life occurred on the Esd ult about O'clock near War
saw Ky. The splendid steamer Belle of the West from
Cincinnati had gone about mile below Warsaw, when
she was discovered to be on fire. The scene that followed
is represented having been the most awful ever witness
ed on The Western rivers The officers saved their lives
by Immediately jumping overheard and swimming ashore
The Bell of the West owned in Cincinnati, and was
insured for $4,000. She is said to be totally lost
An eye witness to the horrible furnishes facts
in connection with the calamity lie says that the fire was
discovered about IL O'Clock in the hold and she i'm
mediatey run ashore She made fast and stage plank
run out Up TO this the flames had moi burst forth
The after hatch then raised for the purpose of getting
water into the hold but So rapid the rush of flames
that all efforts to quel them of no avail and the en-
tire boat became blazing ruin The total number of pas
senpers is estimated at four hundred among whom were
two companies of California emgans, and about thirty
families removing Westward. 1t is ascertained from the
register that sixty souls persisted and probably as many
more have been lost whose not enrolled. Such
was the progress of the fire that before the passengers could
get out of the state rooms all communication between the
cabin and the forward part of the boat was cut off, and all
either were compelled 10 jump overheard or perish IN the
flames At the time The deck fell ina lady and gentleman,
with child in his arms, standing between The CHM
MES large number of horses and cattle burnt to
death.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

We doubt whether such popular unanimty was
ever before exhibited in this county, as by The late
vo,a on the subject of a Convention to amend the
State Constitution. SO lar as we have learned, 'he
sentiment of the people, in Easten and Middle VIr-
qina at least, as expressed at the polls, Is nearly
unanimously in favor Of the measure. Though the
considerations influencing individuals IN reference
to the subject, are as DIVERSE and almost as numer-
Gus, as the persons themselves, this spontaneous
movement of the popular mind indicates clearly that
something is wrong in our fundamental law. Peo-
pie scattered over large extent of country never
rise I'D thus simultaneously without some adequate
cause.
In regard to the particular reforms desired, we have
already nmated. there is much diversity of senll-
menl One man wants this, another wants that, and
there are probably nearly as many plans and plat
forms as there are individuals who compose the body
polite Under these circumstances. it is next 10 I'M
possible for the particular scheme of any one, in all
its details, to be carried OUT. To accomplish any
thing good, therefore, spirit of compromise and mu-
tual concession mus, prevail. For ourselves, while
we entertain decided opinions in regard 10 most Of
the questions which have been agitated, we are moi
disposed Dramatically to insist upon the adoption oil
our peculiar views. We prefer to confde the matter
to the hands of the wise and judcious men who we
hope will compose the Convention; trusting to them
when assembled together, with the advantages OF the
light which they combined can shed upon the sub
iect, to elaborate such plan as will be worthy oil
our adoption.
There is, undoubtedly, wild and wreckless sPir-
il of change abroad. from which we have cause &c
entertain some apprehension. Not content with the
reforms which experience has proved to be desirable
many persons seem to go for change for the mere
love Of change, for measures merely for the lo7e
of novelty Such persons not apt to point ou
the evils which need correction, but the fact that an
existing institution is DID, however well i! may have
operated is sufficient reason in their estimation
why it should be abolished. With such relormers
we profess to have no sympathy.
Beforea great while, we will be called upon to cleo
delegates to the Convention. Let US see to it that we
are represented by proper men--men in point OF a
bility and virtue worthy TO occupy the place. those
who represented us in the Convention of 1929
