Terrible Steamboat Disaster,

We have m account of one Of the
most horrible steamboat disasters that
ever occurred. The Suitano, bound for
st. Louis, with 2, 200 souls aboard, burst
her boiler eight or ten miles above
Memphis about three o'clock on the
morning of the 9th ult., and at this
writing it is not known that above 500
or 600 were saved. After blowing up,
the boat caught fire in the vicinity of
the engine, and in half an hour was
burned to the waters edge. The scene
following the explosion was heartrend-
ing. Hundreds were blown into the
air, some coming down dead, others
mangled, and most all to sink forever
beneath the angry waves. Many were
burned alive While clinging to the
wreck. OF the passengers, l, 1854 were
Federal prisoners from
Vicksburg, who were thus suddenly
hurled into eternity, after surviving all
the perils of fed and prison, and being
as it were on the very threshold of
home. These soldiers represented near
~ every State, and therefore the fright
full calamity will strike its horrors into
the hearts of the people more poignant
ly all over the land. There il no expla-
nation of the cause of the disaster CIV
en-, and indeed it seems impossible to
give any. 1t is reported that only steam
enough was on to propel the boat, and
that all seemed going we'll up to the
moment Of explosion.

The War.

1t is deeply gratifying to receive eve
ry day, as we do, such conclusive evil
dence of the rapidly-approaching end of
the war. The only rebel army east Of
the Mississippi now unsurrendered is
Dick Taylor's, the existence of which
is probably heightened out to protect
Jefferson d. in his migrations out of
the promised land. The remaining
forces in arms against the Government
will be speedily and easily reduced, and
then other agencies than saber and
ball will complete the work of saliva
ton and regeneration. Already the Ia
Dor of putting the country on a peace
basis has commenced, and the expenses
of the Government during the past
week have been very materially re-
duced. The purchase of arms and COM
missary stores has been stopped; work
on Notifications has been suspended /;
soldiers in hospital, released prisoners,
furloughed or in camp, recruits, ETC.,
are ordered discharged, and all depart
ments of Government are reducing the
number of clerks and employees
Large numbers of soldiers in the field
are to be discharged, and it is reported
that good part of Sherman's army is
already on the march for Virginia and
Maryland for disarmament. 1t is
thought the army will soon be reduced
to four hundred thousand men. The
highest authorities regard the war as
virtually over, and the country is to be
placed on peace basis as soon as posi-
ole. The welcome home of the con-
querors will soon be echoing all over
the land. May the day soon come.
