nature with strong attachments and a few antipathies, and some quarrels not at all to my credit. The Monmouth term, however, I can now see carried me along so that at its close I was far ahead of my Hallowell class. The following winter there was an excellent teacher, Stephen H. Dean, at what we called the brick schoolhouse, two miles and a half from our home; so, with my mother's strong approval, I went there. During this season I boarded part of the time on the north road with a Mr. Henry Foster, always returning home for Saturday and Sunday. It was at this school that I made a very fair review of all the studies, excepting the foreign languages, essential for a Bowdoin examination. Arithmetic and algebra were always easy of attainment and a pleasure, and I began to comprehend better and better all that pertained to English grammar. We did not have the athletics of to-day, but the young men of that school, several older than myself, engaged in many a contest. Wrestling

lled and twenty wounded. The explosion was of a remarkable character. The boiler-head was driven out only from the upper part, and doubled over in its centre, having the appearance of a circular book cover half closed.--When the explosion took place this boiler-head was only partly bent over, consequently the steam and water escaped upwards in great force, and broke the floor of the saloon and damaged some of the state-rooms. As the steam and water gained egress, the pressure against the boiler-head caused it to fall over as already described, and then the steam and water took a horizontal course, dashing in the greatest fury aft over the cotton bales, where some forty-five persons, deck passengers and all hands, all Irishmen, were sleeping. Glidden Marks, of New Albany, Ind., was killed, and Henry Foster, of Memphis, badly scalded. The killed were chiefly deck hands. G. W. Scurry, of Nashville, the barber and Charles Hugger, of the same place, leaped overboard and were drowned.

eed, now announces the revocation of Mr. Moore's exequatur, but as Mr. Davis did not grant it, we presume Mr. Moore will simply laugh at his attempted revocation. The indecorousness of the whole thing is that, as in order to revoke the exequatur Mr. Davis must acknowledge its existence, he speaks of it as having been granted by a "former Government authorized to act as the agent of the State of Virginia," meaning the Government of the United State! Well done, Mr. Davis. Miscellaneous. A dispatch from Cincinnati says that Gen. Carter's forces have crossed over the Cumberland river and driven Pegram out of Monticello. Gold was quoted in New York on the 10th at 140 Gen. Foster, at Newbern, N. C., has received instructions from Washington to place in close condiment all rebel officers captured by him. A letter has been received by Mrs. Janees Trighman, in from the with of her Gen. Trighman, stating that she is with him, and that he is but slightly wounded.
