From the Louisville Courier 5th iust Destruction of the New Steamer R. J. Lockwood by Fire

1cSterday afternoon, steam was raised for the flrst time, on the new Missouri river packet R J. Lockwood, just completed at New Albany. tor Capt Lamoth. After night, just before o'clock, she started out from the landing to 60 a lew miles down the river to a wood yard, and to try her machinery. The boat had barely rounded to from the wharf, and had straiohten- ed down stream when she was discovered on Ire at the stern In less thad five minutes th. entire stern of the boat was enveloped in flames and the pilot discovered that the wheel rope on the starboard side had burned off. He manfnl. " stood at his post however, and headed her Tor the Kentucky shore, and succeeded in lapd Ing the boat just above West Louisville
 The DOW oi the boat was driven some twenty feet out on the shore, enabling all the people on board ooafo to escape, including a number of ladies. here were some sixty or seventy personr On board, and we are glad to state that all escaned. | ne pilot at the wheel, Wm. H. Dean, stood to his post until the boat was run ashore. and then he had to escape by climbing through the front oi the pilot house and jumping from the hur ficahe root to the lower deck. When he left U Lhe "heel' the entire pilot house was a mass of flames.
 Capt. Lamoth had his wife and other ladies on the boat, and in the excitement of the lime or with all his valuable papers and accounts. The lives of the people on board were saved and the officers feel grateful that it was no worse Thev one and all, did their duty bravev, and by so dolng saved the valuable lives of ali on board | From the tune the fire first broke out. not 6fte.n minutes elapsed before she was burned to tbe waters edge.

It is ridiculous paraphrase of the concluding paragraph of tho Declaration of American Independence:
 "That we do hereby, for tue lust tine sol emnly protest against the admission of Kansas into the Union under the Lecompton constitu- ton: that we hurl back with scorn the libel lous charge contained in the message of the Presi- dent accompanying the Lecompton consttu- ton, to the effect that the free men of Kansas are lawless people: that, relying upon the justice of our cause, we do hereby, in behalf oi the people we represent, solemnly pledge our. selves to each other, to our friends in Congress and in the States, our lives, our fortunes. and our sacred honor to resist the Lcompton consti. tuition and government by the force of arms
 if necessary; that in this perilous hour of our history, we appeal to the civilized world for tht rectitude of our position, and call upon tn, friends of freedom everywhere to array them selves against this last act of oppression in tn, kausas drama"
