Another Fatal Steamboat Explosto: OVER THIRTY PERSONS KILLED. Sr. Louis, May 28—10 P. M. Another terrible steamboat accident took place this evening. The steamer St. Louis collapsed two flues, three miles below the city, at Quarantine, A frightful scene ensued—the shrieks of the wounded and dying were most heart-rending. From all information which could bo gathered in the confusion, it appears twenty-five lives were lost, and ferty persons wounded. About half the number of persons scalded will certainly die. The sufferers were mostly deck passengers, I have not as yet beon able to, ascertain ‘the names of those killed. Nine es were cither blown or jumpe overboard, some of whose bodies will probably never be recovered. Bvery pos- rible assistance has been rendered to the sufferer pli’ ber remain unergaged.

Boston, Tuesday, May 28, 1850, The New England Anti-Slavery Society (the true Garrisenites) commenced their convention exercises in the Mclodeon, this morning. The hour sppointed for the meeting was 10 o'clock. At that time, about ono hundred and fifty persons bad collected. It was quito amusing to stand in the wide entry, andscan the motley crew who slowly entered the hall. Here came two ancient vestals, in slate-colored gingham, and long-drawn features, eager to listen to the seuorous tones of a Garrison, or @ Burleigh, as they denounce, in barbarian lingo, the churches of our fathers, and the constitution of our glorious Union. There come a trio of exceedingly demure looking gentlemen, with wide Byron collars turned downward, gold spectacles covering their optics, and their sable-gloved bands waving with all the enthusiasm of ultra argument. But why, at the door-way, stand # brace of policemen? Why, it is suspected that poor Abby Folsom will en- deavor to make her entrée into the hall where her fa- vorite doctrines are to be discussed—and Abby is no welcome visiter. Her tongue, so-owift in speoch, has never yet been bridled aad her only fault is, that she gives sudden vent to thunder that has been concocted and bottled up in the hearts of Garrison and his fol- lowers, they intending to let it out only when other excitement may be wanting, A quarter past ten o'clock, and perhaps five hundred “humans” may be counted in the house. No one on the platform, Everything very duit. Finally, fout reporters make their way down the aisle, and upon the stage, and take complete possession of the only tablo appropriated to the officers of the convention. Then ap abolitionist takes courage and follows, seating him- self ona settee in the rear. Quite a pause; and then Francis Jackson, Esq., President of the Maseachusetts ‘Anti-Slavery Society, mounted the rampart and called the convention to order. A committee was appointed to nominate officers, and the result of the ready-cooked operation was, that the said Francis Jackson was cho- sen President; for Vice Presidents, the following named notorious disunionists were chosen :—Edmund Quincy; Rey. Adin Ballou; Frederick Douglass and George Dougherty, of New York; James W. Waiker, of Ohio, jowne Spooner, of Massachusetts. The Secretar! were Samuel May, Elbri Bpregue, ad last, but not by any means the least, Miss Eliza J. Kenny, of Salem —a pretty, benevolent looking lady of some thirty-five years, who can relish @ joke and behave herseif with dignity. I merely mention the names of those com- posing the business committee (Lord only knows what their business is !) for the purpose of showing the lead- ing spirits of this anarehical “ huddle; they are as follows :—W m. Lloyd Garrison, Wendell ?h'llips. Anne Warren Weston, Parker Pillsbury, Henry C. Wright, Stephen 8. Foster, Abby (Kelly) Foster, and Lucy one, The “business committee,” under lead of Garrison, retired to an ante-room, used for stowing hard and soft coal, for the purpose of preparing a series of resolu- tions—ail of which were already traced on poor paper by the erudite pen of the chairman himself. In the meantime, the President informed the audience (which had now increased to the number of about eight hundred.) that they could have the privilege of pray- ing, either silently or audibly—but the prayiag, it there was an: altogethér silent. The only sound to disturb the sweet communion was that of the boys cracking peanuts in the gallery. After a while, one Hiram W ilson, evidently thinking sufficient time had been given for prayer, stood up in the aisle and commenced a speech. “Come up on the platform,”’ cried the President, aod the s-upid-looking man crept squeemishly tothe starting post. He began talking about corruption in the “Nashernul K-youn- cils—spoke of blood-thirsty tlavebolders, &e.; when suddenly the President interrupted his harangue by stating to the audience that the speaker Canada West, and had been a teacher of fugitive slaves. v resident, therefore, requested Hiram Wilson to ve some description of the coadition of the refageos in Canada, This seemed to take Hiram rather aback, and, after some rambling senteness. he “ through,” and quickly vouisbed foom the stage. Wm. Lloyd Garrison now made his appearance, and read a long serivs of resolutions, which were reevived vith mingled hieses andelapping of hands. The only ove I think worth copytng is the following, the last on the list, end particularly rich w the peculiar senti- ment of the Garrigon fraternity :— “Resolved, Taat the recent course of Daniel Web- ster is no matter of surprise to us; for we have al- ways tound him, as vo our question, silent wl ought to speak. rpeaking whee he ought to a forgetful of every pledge precisely at that when the promised duty was. if ever, to be pe with him it is s matter of course to “thundet at Springfield. whieh he does not fwifil at Washington; to omit to say at Washington what he dare not omic printing at Boston; to have # desk as fuil of petitions of pledges nuredeemed; and, ignis, to lead bis too credulous retainers into the fullset endorsement of the worst of measures, and then lip his own neck free, by charging mistakes upon the Feporters; that, as to all such trifiies, he may fairly ung the community bave no right to be sure rised—siuew habit isa second nature, aad rarely in {s lite has “the vigor of the war come up to the lofty and scunding phrase of the manifesto;” and that it is enough for him to ciaim one trait of the Royal Cb in “never saying a silly thing, and uever doing oue.”” When the above reselution was read, the disunion- ists tried to raise a simail quantity of appl ba Was rpeedily drowned inthe st signs of dieapyrobation on the Now came the s 4 on, 8 very iminutive man. much addicted to public + but a ridiculously prosy talker—whom his brother abclitionists have alwas heretofore hooted out of thvir conventions—suddenly bounded upon the stand, and pulling from his eapacious pockets an immenee pile of newspapers and documents, commenced & wild and incoherent barangne.

Mr, Rogers. pastor of Winter-sreet church, appeared to have . merited the spite of the epeuker, and the charges of Wright were anything but complimentary to the re- verend gen’ . Some remarks made by the speaker wore considered extremely blasphemous by the majori- tyefine assembly, and he was Jnally hooted down in ume Chas.

Mr, May succeded in making & raise of about $86, which he pocketed with becomingsmiles. Heats ©. Wright made another speech, denouncing everything ree: by the multitude as great, good, and glorious—he called religion a humbug —doctors of divinity. hypoerites—and the churches, in his opinion, were little helis on earth. Dusing some remarks on the Bible and slavery, @ very respectable elderly gen- tleman rose and asked Wriglit if he believed the Bible sanctioned slavery—for certainly his remarks tended that way. Well, this Wright has 4 remarkable faculty of evading sharp questions, and he tried to dodge an answer. (Cries of “answer the question !""} Wright—If the Bible sanctions slavery it is a talse Bibie, and I would trampie it under foot—suiting his action to the word. [A storm of hisses and ent-cries } Wright, with scowling brows, and a thundering yoics, went off on other topics, an. wi orfect howl ot general denunciation, wound up his harangue, amidst the hoots of the audience.
