those terrible steamboat disasters, which
oflate have SO frequently taken place OF
the Western waters, occurred last nigh
at about eight o'clock, within twenty
miles of our city, suddenly sending into
eternity some twenty or more people, anC
wounding and scalding some twenty-five
others The R. j. Lockwood, in com
mand of Captain Ben Howard, which haC
been plying during the past season be
tween 0uachita river and New Orleans
left the latter port on the lst instant to
again enter the Missouri river trade fol-
which she was originally built At New
Orleans she had her boilers repaired and
was pronounced in good condition by the
Board Of Inspectors when she proceeded
upward She had only been out short
time when it was discovered that
one of her boilers was leaking Cap
tain Howard Immediately ordered the
amount of steam to be reduced, and asked
the engineer if they had not better
stop and repair. That officer informed
the Captain that there was no positive
necessity for so doing, when the steamer
continued upward, under the masters
instruction, at a very slow speed. Last
night, however, when she was probably
eighteen miles from the city, she sudden
ly blew up, and afterward caught fire.
The flames burst in majesty, sending
their lurid light high in the heavens,
making bright the whole horizon, which,
from this distance could be plainly seen,
and many readily OWNED how they were
occasioned The steamer NJ. s. Mepham,
on her way to New Orleans, soon passed
the Inflated steamer, and rendered all the
assistance in the power of her officers.
The wounded and scaldad were taken by
her, and proceeded down the river, re-
ceiving every care that could be given

SoIREE DANsANTE.--A grand re.
uniom of Professor Lippard's Dancing
Glasses took place at the Harvey
House Saloon last Friday night.
There was a large attendance Of the
pupils, together with goodIy num-
Der of their invited friends. Being
among the latter thus honored, we
were enabled to see and judge for
ourselves in regard to the proficiency
attained by the classes in the grace
full measures taught them by their
accomplished professor. Our obser-
vations satisfied US that the care and
pains taken by Mr.. Lippard in
bringing forward his pupils were at
tended with complete success. The
most intricate dances were performed
by every one, from the largest to the
least, with an easy grace and precis-
ion admirable to behold.
This reunion was one of the pleas
ATTEST occasions that has transpired
in our city for some time, and there
aremany besides ourselves who would
have no objection to look upon its
like again. That beautiful quadrille
the "Prince 1mperial"-was one
of the dances of the evening, and it
alone, is worth going long ways to
see, let alone to indulge in.
