Destructive Fire-Three Steamboats,
Burned.

Between three and four o'clock yesterday
afternoon, says the Republican of the goth,
fire broke out on board the .NtU England,
lying at the upper end Of the wharf, and
before its progress could be stayed, the en-
tire boat was developed in flames and finally
burnt to the waters edge.
The steamer Brpnette which lay below and
and alongside and the .Nslc Lucy, which
was moored on the outside Of the New Eng
land, soon after caught fire. The former
burned 10 the waters edge where she Law,
and the New Lucy, burning loose from her
moo:ings, tloatcd past the city, and must
inevitably have run fowl of and set on fire
Z great number Of boats at the landing, but
for the timely aolion of Capt. Lamothe of
the AItora who, Immediately on the break
ing out Of the fire, FASTENED with his boat
to the rescue Of chose in peril. After haul
ing ont several from the landing, among
them the J. NJ. Clsndcnin, which boat she
lowed 10 Bloody Island, she cast hawsor
on board The burning wreck when it had
reached the foo. Of Locust street, and pull
ed It to the foot of Bloody Island, thus pre-
venting the destruction of large number Of
boats moorcd below.
The steamer St. Angc, which lay next
the Brunette, was at one time in imminent
peril, but escaped without injury, partially
from The fact that the burning wreck, as it
iloatcd past her, was carried out by the cur
rent, and partly from the cxertions ofthe
members of the St. Louis Fire Company,
who took their engine on board the boat,
and kept her wet down until out of danger
No other boats were injured by the fire,
though many had narrow escapes, and as far
as we can learn no one was injured. The
cause Of the fire we have been unable to
learn, though we have made diIigent en-
qGiry. There was watchman on board
the New England at the time, but he does
not seem 10 know any thing about it, farther
than lie was the first TO discover the fire.
which was too late to do anything towards
saving the boat.
The New England was an old boat, built
on the Ohio, in 1877, and was valued at
$4,000. She was insured to the amount of
$1,000.
The New Lucy was fine boat nearly
new, having been built during the past fall
at this place. She was valued at $4,000,
and was insured for $4,000, Both these
boats belonged to the KcokuL Packet Com
p,nv.
The Brunette was also a new boat, built
on the Ohio for the Galenn, last fall She
was valued at about $50, 900 and was insur-
ed for !p28,OOO.

of the steamer Shenandoah, and formerly
clerk of the J. NJ. Clendenin, seeing the
latter boat in imminent peril from the rapid

loose the lines that held her TO shore, and
with the assistance Of the Waterman of the

the resolution in relation to the Ten Millions
which the Democratic members of Congress
propose to place at the disposal Of General
Pierce
Resolved, That sum OF ten millions o.
dollars be set apart out of any funds in the

The health of Vice President King, saws
the Times correspondent of the 18th, is
worse. Mr.. Cass intimated in debate or
the 1lth, that he could have no more con.
versation with them on the Clayton and
Bulwer treaty. There is very little chance
of his recovery. His voice can scarcely be
heard even in whisper. He is said to fee
excessively annoyed by the position in which
Mr.. Cass remarks have placed him. DR.
