WHITEHALL, Wednesday, July 80.
The steamer john Jay, or Lake George, was
destroyed by fire near Garfield, yesterday after
noon. 4 number of the passengers aud crew
peIished The bodies Of four ladies have been
recovered. We have not yet obtained list of
the dead and missing.
ALBANY, WEDNESDAY,, July 30.
Miss Sherman sister Of John J. Sherman, Of
this city, is of the killed OH the steamer John
Jay.
The following bodies have been recovered.
Mrs. Bellluap, wife OF Edward Belnap, Of n
Y City; Miss Benshaw, OF New Orleans; Mr.
MctcaH, Of Cherry Valley, N. T.; Mrs. $. C.
Thwing, of Boston, Miss c. A. Fleet, OF Brook
Ign. Five III all
J. /. Phoenix, wife and three daughters. and
the Captain and crew were all saved.
1t IS supposed that one other body may be I'M
der the wreck, but it is merely supposition.-
The vessel is burned to the waters edge.
The ire is said 10 have been caused by the
burning OF pitch pine wood which chobcd up
the smoke-pipe 50 as to drive the fire and smoke
into the tire-room compelling the tirem an to re-
treat to the deck for air, without giving him IN
opportunity to close the doors Of the hre-boXes.
The sparks quickly gnited to the woodwork
overhead, and the boat was enveloped in flames
almost instantly.
The passengers blame the Captain for not run
ming her on shore Immediately, as she was near
a sandy beach at the time, instead Of allowing
her to 60 on for the purpose Of trying to put out
the fire, and saving The boat, and at last being
compelled TO run Oh some rocks. Others attach
no blame to any one, and say that the Capital Il
did everything in his power to prevent the ca
tastrophe. i full investigation Of the affair is
to be had.

The Fremont and Foote Difficulty.

The y. Y. Evening Post has the following accoun
Of this matter from which it will he seen thata large
amount of the electioneering capital Of our oppo-
uents has been entirely destroyed
The facts are briefly as follows Senator Foote
entered the Sena te the last night of the Session,
with an uncommonly large br icll in his hat, and
ayaled himself Of the first opportunity as is the
habit Of people with hats thus furnished, 10 make
a speech. In the course OF his remarks he re-
hected Extensively upon certain California meas
urcs which had been pending before the Senate,
and upon the motives Of those who advocated
them. Col. Fremont Immediately left the SEN
a,a chamber and sent Tor Senator toote 10 come
out. When they met, Colonel Fremont told
him that he had sent for him to say that he
(Foote) had just used language in reference 10
the Californian legislation and senators which no
gentleman could use, and unworthy OF an Ameri-
can senator Foote Immediately struck at Ere
mont and slightly grazed his face. Senators
and officers who were near doubtless antcipat-
ing something of the kind, promptly intertered
al prevented any further controversy at that
time.
On the follow ing day F remont sent Foote a
note by Governor Price, of New Jersey demand
ing a retraction OF his offensive language, aud
Foote wrote retraction which was deemed sat
istactory by the friends OF the respective par
ties.
The O5scrrer will perceive that thers is no pa
rity whatever between the cases of Brooks and
this that Fremont never ifted'his hand against
Foete, but simply characterised his language as
it deserved Foote was the Brooks OF the oc-
casion, not Fremont He was the one who, like
Brooks, resorted 70 personal violence, and he
was the one who, ike Brooks, was ready enough
to back out OF the consequences when they star
ed him fairly IN the face.

Kentnclru Election.

A few returns from Kentucky are favorable to
the democrats. We have no idea, that single
southern state will cast its vote for any thing
but the Democrats. The idea that Fillmore will
get a southern state, is just as preposterous as
that he will get northern one. There is no room
for him in this strife. The south is going for
Buchanan and Slavery. The North for Ere

no dyeing, no wig, nor extraordinary trouble.
There can be no doubt whatever OF its efficacy.
We have seen testimonials almost without mum
Der, and from men Of great intelligence, high
standing and moral worth.
Those who have been bald for years are now
wearing their own hair, and appear ten years
younger than they did six months age. As in
most cases gray hairs and bald heads are both
premature and unatural, it is duty to remedy
them by the natural and undoubted means which
