Steam Boat Disaster. On Saturday, the 4th inst. about 55 miles below Cincinnati,

the boiler of the steam boat Union burst, which produced instant destruction to the : boat, killed four persons, and badly wounded seven. She was a small boat, built ! for the purpose of navigating the Ohio during low water.

ther hour. until the resolution was rejected, on Thursday afternoon, by a vote of 31 to '27. Messrs. Lomax. Lewis. Hoover and Elliott, all voted for its rejection. The belief that the Governor had exceeded the

constitutional limits seemed to prevail, hut 'i

n n.hers u ihed not to involve the State j in the peiplexilios n:.d trouble that would '

have resulted firm the adoption of the res. f lotion. This is the reason assigned by Mr. Hoover for hi vote. The election of a Senator to Congress had not taken place, and it sc med uncertain when it would. A resolution passed both Houses to proceed to the electon on Wednesday, the Cth. but the vote was reconsidered in the lower House, and the resolution finally laid on the table. On Thursday evening a motion was made to take it up, but was defeated by a successful motion to adjourn.

Sek-cted from Eastern Papers. It appears that Russia issued a formal declaration of war against Persia on the 28th of September, but a battle had prev iously occurred on the 2d, in which the former were victorious. The Russians

attacked the Persians at the Chamora, 10,

000 strong, and killed 100. General Vermolotf, in an order of the day, says the Persian court has been treacherous; and the Russian Manifesto intimates that war will be carried on till security and indemnity shall be obtained Hence it may be concluded that he will use every possible exertion to secure some of the frontier

j provinces and strong holds of Persia, and ij its Caligula. There ua; a i

thus throw every possible obstacle in the wav of future irruptions of his enemies into Ids own dominion?. A letter from St Petersburg has the following passage: The Persion war with this country resembles the Burmese war, the Persians having taken a fancy to conquer Russia with 20,000 men. The result of such afXtirs with the Persians is generally the los of a few beads and noses among the unlucky counsc llors. In relation to this war, the National Gazette states it to be the general opinion that it will not be of long duration. At Constantinople, on the 29th September, the Sublime Porte issued a proclamation, announcing the establishment of a regular and very vigorous system of domestic police. It prohibits, to both sexes, all disorderly conversation, and the utterance af false reports, under the heaviest pen dtie.. Several women were put into bugs and thrown into the sea for tneiscrctt words. The heads of two, who had been "guilty of speaking of public ailiurs," were left out of the bags, while they were paraded through the crowds as an example to the "babbling and meddling sex ?' So much for Turkish gallantry. On the Cth October, the King of Sweden, in conscquenre of the unfavorable accounts of the Swedish harvests, ordered a

'reduction of the. duties on foreign erain: oats and barley are specified, and until the 1st of June next, will pay no higher duties when imported in foreign than in Swedish ships. A vi olent pamphlet has appeared in London, on the pretended encroachments made by the State of Maine on the British terntorv. The vintage of France is very abun dant. In the neighborhood of Paris the

vineyards have been much more productive than usual; and there, as well as in Bourgoyne, Champagne, and POrleandais, they have not had casks enough for the wine. An army of observation is forming to watch the movements in Portugal; Gen. Quesada is appointed to the command. Alarming accounts continue to be received from the provinces. The sale of wool, which is the principal resource of Spain, will in a great degree fail this year, owing to the long drought. An Algerine squadron has been olTBarcclonn, and was still cruising on the coast. The Constitutionalists are suffering new and greater persecutions, in Upper and Lower Aragon. Robbers are again infesting the environs of Madrid: and two con

siderable bands have committed a thousand attroeilies.
