Methodist clergyman, ten years ago, and

together peacefully, and, it is claimed,
happily, until last year, when Beardsley
heard for the first time, as long ago as
1856, his wife married another man in
New York city, and BY series of decep-
lions on both maintained two husbands

The Explosion at Easten, Pa.

Iue EAplOStOu ht Edst0u, fd'
We have have a telegraph disptch an
nouncing the explosion of boiler at Eas
ton, and the names of the killed, bnt the
acco unit was very indefinite. The follow
ing is more full.
EAsToN, Pa, March 6.-P. M.
This morning the shores of the Della
ware river, below the bridge here, were
crowded with persons to witness the trial o.
the alfred Thomas, little steamer which
has been built at this place to run between
Belvidere and Port Jarvis.
At llo'clock the steamer started, and
made her way up the river against swift
current, having ON board about, hundred
men. AT the bridge she stopped, when a
number got of, leaving about forty per.
sons on board. The steamer then continued
her trip up the river, and, on arriving at
the Fails, short distance above the bridge
she was moored for a short time. When
all was ready TO start again, the boiler ex.
ploded with terrible crash, the pieces fly.
ing in every direction, and the boat becom.
ing in an instant a complete wreck. Some
of the passengers were thrown fifty feet in
to the air others were blown off into the wa.
ter and slightly injured, and others were
dreadfully mangled. The sight upon the
land was truly heartrending. The torn limbs
of the poor sufferers, and the presence Of
those who we're in search of friends sup
posed to be among the dead, formed a
sight TO make the stoutest heart sad. The
physicians of the borough bastened to the
assistance Of thesufferers, and did all in
their power to alleviate their sutferings.

The Legislative Visitation,

The State Journal has an elaborate ar
ticle defending the invitation given to the
legislatures of Tennessee and Kentucky to
visit the State capital as guests of Ohio;
and as we have been among those who
have disapprcved of this proceeding, a
word on that subject may not be amiss.
1t is little difficult for us to see what
right the legislature has to appropriate the
money of the State to such purpose; and
therefore the reasons for it should be very
clear and satisfactory to make out justi-
fication. There was, at the time of this
visit, a state of irritation between the
North aud the South which it was certain
ly worth while to allay, if possible, and
money expended efectually for that pur-
pose cannot be regarded as misappropria,
ted.
We did not look very hopefully on this
visit as means of accomplishing this re-
suit, and the subsequent course of the peo-
pie of Ky., in driving out her most inno-
cent and patriotic citizens, and her more
recent threats against the Methodist Con-
ference, are not yet strong arguments in
favor of change Of views. Still we ap-
preciate the motive of our Legislature, and
are not quite sure, after all, that the ef-
fort has been wholly lost.
If, as the Journal thinks, something
substantial has been effected in that direc-
tion, the people of Ohio should be slow in
censuring their public servants. Certain
il is that there is more healthy tone in
the sentiments of the States South now
than there was two months ago. Some
thing Of this is due, doubtless, to the set
tlement of the Speaker question; but
something also seems due to the fraternal
gathering at Columbus. The MemmiLger
treason. which, at first, looked very formi-
dabIe, has been etfectually dissipated.-
The States before which South Carolina
laid her unpatriotic propositions, have, one
after another, declined to associate with
her rebellious scheme, and something of
the old feeling of amity prevails again.
1t is not impossible, therefore, that this
legislative visit may have borne good fruit ;
and although it is not an example to be
followed, but which seems to US to be ex-
ceedingly dangerous and corrupting, we are
not disposed TO press our censures, but
rather to defend the act as having its root
in high patriotic motives and as affording
means to disabuse the Southern people of
certain prejudices and feelings iDimical to
good neighborhood and calculated to en-
danger the permanency of our government.

The vexcd Question Pacified.

1t is matter of such great difficulty
even with an enlightened and unprejudiced
journalist to decide whether he is, or is not
in favor of an adjourned session of the
Legislature, that We do not wonder at the
perplexi,y Of Senators and Representa-
| tives.
Indeed, we may safely assert that there
is great deal to be said on both sides.
The friends of aD adjourned session
hold that it is necessary for the health of
the body polite to have a council of ply
sicians meet next year. On the contrary,
its opponents are of opinion that the pa
tent if thoroughly dosed how will recover
without further attention.
Perhaps the wisest course which could
bs adopted is to leave the State to the
forces of nature for season, and to treat
it powerfully and promptly next winter.
Need we assure the reader that this Is
the line of conduct about to be pursued I
In the House, yesterday, Gt will be seen
by the report resolution was adopted
adjourning the General Assembly from the
26lh irst., to tho first day of January next.
Without doubt, the same resolution will
pass the Senate to-day, if we may judge
from the action of that body in refusing
to take from the table resolution for a
sine die adjournment.
This measure, which has excited so much
discussion, did not pass the House without
considerable explanation and protest. The
members of the Finance committee de-
clared that it was impossible to make pro
visions for carrying on the government two
years in tie present state OF affairs; and it
is very evident that the two Houses have
on hand so much business that without an
adjourned session they will he detained
here till may. This will save nothing to
the State, but will be greater expense,
with less benefit, than brief session next
winter. Members, as the season advances
are constantly called away by business,
and both Houses are thin. Next winter
they will be back in plentitude, refreshed
and vigorous. with experience added to the
sagacity and talent which have already
distinguished them.
We are glad this question of an adjourn
ed session has not taken party shape in
either House. Black spirits and white
have fraternally commingled, just as if
there had never been any Harper's Ferry.
Among Democrats who have consistently
favored the measure are two of the ablsst
Judge Key, of the Senate, and Mr..
Flagg Of the House. Yesterday, a great
number Of their party came over, and ma
ny retrenchment Republicans were con-
vineed by the statements of the Finance
committee. Mr.. Woods was the leader of
Democratic opposition.
We think the measure, when the reasons
for it are properly understood, will be re-
ceived with popular favor.
AT any rate, it is comforting to know
that the question is about settled.-Stats
