Fatal boiler Explosion. --The Greenville (Ala. Messenger states that the boiler of a steam saw-mill, near that place, exploded on the 6th inst., killing Eben Odum and Daniel Pruitt, and fatally scalding Abraham Odum. The head of the boiler shot upwards and fell about sixty feet; the boiler went straight forward, cutting through a large pile of lumber, two trees eight inches in diameter, knocking up a pine stump, glancing two other stumps and striking another tree which it nearly felled, but which broke its force and gave it a rebound of several feet. The distance of the boiler in its passage was about one hundred yards, and the weight of the boiler about six thousand pounds.
