It has been the Constant sndeavor of
this board, both in their official and So
ciel relations with the travelling public,
to impress upon them the great virtue Of
life p~reservers and the necessity Of seeing
that their staterOOms are provided with
them as the law directs, and the great
loss Of life can only be attributed 10 the
uncomfortable panic and confusion en-
suing upon the discovery Of the fire and
landing of the steamer.
The origin Of this unfortunate disaster
was evidently through the Judgment Of
sparks from the chimneys, which again
shows the Importance OF 3 strict eompli-
ance with the laws enacted especially 40

RIVER MATTERS.


The day just past was one of the most
beautiful we have had for mOnths-mild,
with the sun shining as pleasantly as in
October. Business wasSmofe than ac-
tive on the landing-it was rushing.
Every packet went out loaded with
freight and people. Red river is falling
all the way down. At st. Louis the
river is falling slowly, with five and a
half feet to Cairo. All the upper rivers
are closed. At Cincinnati the Ohio is
full of ice. At Louisville it is falling,
with four feet ten inches in the canal.
The ice there still looks dangerous.

MIR. EDITon:-
According to a notice given
in many of the Episcopal Churches OF tins
city, last Sunday, the Rev. Samuel iiinman,
accompanied by party OF converted emp
pewa and Sioux Indians from Dacolah, visit
ed ST Inke's church, on the evening OF the
9Th instant
This large church was well Allied by
class of people who deeply sympathize with
them.
Mr. Hinman-who was the first Mission
ary sent by Bishop Whipple TO this wretched
people, and at great expense and trouble
translated the New Testament aud Prayer
Book into the Dacntah language loquently
presented their claims. He asked Tor their
prayers and aid IN behalf of the missions In
the "hr West" He said that many OF tue
tales Of the atrocities committed by the In
dams were untrue, and many OF the ilghts
were caused by white men in their eh"rls
10 get land from the Indians.
The Indians were then requested to sing 4
hymn, which they did in creditablc man
ner, to the tune OF "There is Happy Land. ="
How strange and marvellous are His ways,
when but little over FIVE years ago these
Indians sounded the savage war-whoop IN
their native forests, now singing their Mater $
God.
One of the Sioux converts then made u
touching address in his own language, which
was interpreted by the Rev. Mr., Human.
The Rev. John Johnson Enmegahbowh,
converted Chippewaand regularl ordan-
ed Deacon, then spoke in very good English
and with considerable pathos when he de-
scribed the wrongs and degradation of his
people, and thanked the congregation for the
interest they took in their behalf
A collection was taken up to build churches
and school houses Their present place OF
worship being but mere shed.
The congregation was then dismissed, bu'
many persons remained TO look at and shake
hands with their Red visitors, among that
number was your correspondent, who SHOOK
hands with no less than four of them Tile
Indians were very bashtul and seemed i'll nj
ease while SO many were thronging around
them.
They have visited Washington aud BalIi
more, at the latter city they were calle'
upon by many leading members OF the so
ciety Of Friends, who have eyinced grea
sympathy for the Indians since the time o
William Penn. Through their venerable
leader, Benjamin Hallowel, they have con
tributed one hundred dollars TO the educa
ton of the two sons OF the Rev ]. johnson
Enmegahhowh.
Yours, PERcEvAi,
