cause Mr.. Postmaster Walker is turned out Of
oiiice. What has that to do with itr Very
much we assure you'll One Of the arguments
used with Mr.. Buchanan and the sole one which
induced the "eld public functionary" to turn out
Ofiynn and Shoemaker and put in Walker and
Davis, was, that by SO doing Michigan would be
safe for the Democracy. Mr. Walker, then
member Of the State Committee and his co-mem.
bers pledged themselves to carry the State, and
now that NJ. Walker is turned out, it can't be
expected that he will carry the State for the fun
OF the thing! Buchanan, also, has evidently
lost confidence in his being able TO carry the
State, and hence puttitg this and that together,
we conclude that the Democracy have given up
Michigan. Isn't it clear ?-Det Tri5.

The Propeller Mount Vernon Blown Up.

We regret to learn that the Western Trans.
pOrtatiOn Company's propeller Nt. Vernon, Capt.
Eugene Newman, blew up early this morning,
near Point au Pelle, causing the complete de-
struction OF the boat cargo, and killing the Sec
ond engineer and one fireman. The particulars,
as related to us by Capt Newman are as fol.
lows
The Mt. Vernon lef. here for Buffalo on Sum
day evening at o'clock, with carge consisting
OF 200 bushels corn, 4sS barrels -four, and
l50 bags wheat. Before leaving the river, she
encountered heavy gale, and was compelled to
lie by at Maiden all night. Left Monday morn
ing twenty minutes to 4, and ran down six miles
miles below Point au Pele, the wind blowing
fresh from NE, with heavy sea. The storm in.
creasiry in violence, run back for shelter in
Pigeon Bay, under the Point, from whence she
again got under way at one O'Clock this morning.
When l-2 of mile from the Dummy" off
Point au Pelle, Capt. Newman, observing that
she was going slow, went aft to see what steam
was on. Looked down from the upper deck and
ascertained that she had on SO pounds, (being
capable Of carrying 20 pounds Went back to
the man at the wheel and ordered him to put
the wheel stabOard and keep her ESE. just as
he had spoken, the boiler blew up with ter
rife explosion, tearing away her after part en-.
{ tire, breaking off both arches, and blowing away
the after part OF the cabin.
Theodore Reese I'd engineer, aud James

unmarried. Two or three Others received Sigh,
injuries.
Capt, Newman go; upon the top OF the pilot
house TO look after the boats and found then
both blown away. A very few minutes after
wards, the steamer fell over on the beam ends
When she fell, Capt. Newman was in the office
TO look after the money. The stove and lounge
fell on him. but he had previously taken the
precaution TO secure line from the mast. and
made his escape The wreck soon after wen
down, tearing up the cabin and upper deck
from which a raft was soon constructed, fastened
together with rope cut from the square sail
but fortunately the crew we're not reduced 10 tn,
necessity Of resorting TO such fraii means o. pre-
servation. After clinging to the rigging till da.
light, the surviving crew, twenty in number
were taken off by Capt. Morley, Of the schoone

fered assistance, but il was not needed. Sool
