8 ‘Steamboat Disaster on tho Delaware—Fright- fal Scone. OUR PHILADELPHIA CORRESPONDENCE. Parapevrsia, Aug. 5, 1855. In the Herp, a few days since, appeared an arti- ‘cle im relation to correspondents and correspondence. In that connection, mention was made of the corres- pondents of the Hzmaxp being in all of the oat of the way places of the country, bat always in the way when items of news are to be gathered. That article and its tendencies were strongly presented to me last night, when the disaster to the steamer Gene- ral MoDonald occurred; and although for the moment anticipating an exit from the busy, bustling world, speedily, I could not help exclaiming, “ Howlucky is that Iam here!” with a feeling probably akin to the culprits who were about to be hanged, who ai- milarly expressed them»elves when @ bull dashed in among the crowd at the foot of the gallows, Excuse the digression. I am still excited and feel wander- ingly. The steamer General McDonald was chartered by Mr. Jarrett, of Baltimore, for an excursion to Cape May on Saturday night, to leave here at 8 o’olock, and return from the Cape at the same hour to-night. Arrangements had also been made to take excur- sionista from Washington and Baltimore. -The nam- ber of tickets was limited, the share for Philadel- phia being 150. This number was on board when we left the wharf. The night was pitch dark, and the rein fell in torrents as we glided slowly into the stream. A more dismal pleasure party never con- gregated together; a wet blanket seemed to envelope every one of my wretched travelling companions, and all appeared in funereal frames of mind, more than in- dulging in bright anticipations of a brighter day to- morrow, and a joyous, invigorating visit to Old Ocean. We had been on board about an hour—the heavy pattering of the rain had, ina measure, ceased to be ao monotonously annoying, and we were busy in seeking means to pass the time as pleasantly as circumstances would permit, when we were startled by a piercing cry, or hullo, followed almost instantly by a terrific crash, which made our boat tremble all over like a leaf. For my pa:t, 1 was completely up- get over a stool upon which I was eitting, and came up, as the sailors say, ull standing, against a stan- cheon. The greatest confusion instantly ensued among the one hundred and fifty passengers on board, and it was impossible, ror # time, to ascertain the cause of the alarm, or tho nature of the damage. When order was in a measure restored, it sppeared that we had come in colli.ion with a schooner layin, at anchor near the Lazaretto, and that we had struc her on her larboard side, and carried away our lar- board rooms, and a large portion of the wheel house, and the heavy timbers on that side of the boat. The crash and the carrying away of the timbers made the boat careen over to the starboard, and enabled her to free herself from the schooner, and float off into the stream. She soon righted, and after drifting with the tide for about five minutes, the anchors were let go and we had a chance to examine our con- dition more thoroughly. It was found that the hull of the boat was uninjured, and that those on board had no occasion to anticipate any further danger, a3 long as they :emained quiet. An exami- nation into the extent of our injury brought with it the melancholy announcement that the collision had been attended by a feartisl loss of life. Some ten or twelve persons were in the barber's shop at the time of the accident, and were swept overboard with the broken boardsandtimbers. Two persons were picked up subeequently; but whether they belonged to the arty in the barber's shop it is impossible to Bay. It Pe quite possible that thove in that room were com- pletely eruhsed in the wreck of the wood work.

(Trem the Philadelpia American, Aug. 6.) A frightful accident occurred upon the river Dela- ware on Satorday night last, by which several per- sons were instantly deprived of life and others seri- ously injured. ‘The steamer General McDonald, commanded by Captain Barr, had been chartered to make an excur- sion to Cape May and back, and she accordingly left ber dock at 8 P. M., with, it is sup » about 115 pasae on board; but as uo register was made of them, it is impossible to arrive at the correct num- ber. The night was very dark, a heavy storm r: at the time the boat’ left, which did not deter those from going who were provided with tickets. The steamer proceeded down the river as far as Tinicum, off the Lazaretto, when she came in vio- lent contact with the schooner A. G. Pease, Captain Brooks, which cleared at this port on the 3d instant for Hartford, Conn., and was then lying at anchor off the Lazaretto. The steamer struck the bowsprit of the schooner, which carried away her guards and ripped up a portion of the deck from the forward gangway to the centre of the wheelhouse on the lar- board side, and carried away the barber shop, in were o number of _ ite rdale, of Beverly, was sitting in this room, and was hurled overboard with great force, receiving very serious injuries. He managed to cling to the guards of the boat until he was rescued. He was taken to Beverly on board the Edwin For- rest, at 8 o'clock Sanday morning, and it is feared he is internally injured. Mr. Walters, editor of the Delaware County Re- publican, was also throyn into the river, and was rescued by Capt. Spencer, of the schoouer Maria L. i, bat, we are sorry to soy, he was very mach mrt.

All theee missing persons are believed to be drowned, Immediately upon intelligence of the disaster be- ing cht to the city, the steamer Sun was fired up, and left her whari at Chestiut street about 1 A. | M; for the relief of the McDonald. , The pilot of the Sun informs us that all the passen- . gers were taken trom the McDonald. i ‘The Sun arrived here at 4 o'clock, and the passen- ms were to get home, heartily satisfied with tu night excursions, The San retarned to the Tassie, took the McDonald in tow, and towed her into Wilmington, Delaware, where she will be re- paired. - The achooner Pease was taken in tow ond brought to the city, and was laying at anchor off the Navy Yard throughout Sunday. c ‘t Rad the usual lights display- Capt.

Coroner Delayean was sent for, and upon his arri- val, hod the remains taken to the Isth ward station house, where a jury was summoned aud an inquest commenced. Upon examining the body it was tound that three wounds had been intticted in the throat. Two were alight superticial cuts, while the third and fatal wound was caused by a thurst of a small instrument probably a penknife—which had entered about four inches, severing one of the carotid arteries, and without doubt-causing death. The victim wus evidetuly German. She was abont twenty-five years of age, had dark hair, and was about five teet six inches in height. Her tea- tures were good, and she waa beautifully tormed. She was dressed in a dark delaine dress, with a row of fancy buttons down the front of the body. She had on lace ander-sleeves, stockings, black lasting giiters, ear rings, and a common enamelled breast- pin, the latter representing two female figures. In the pocket» of the dress were two pairs of old gloves, one pair of which were Hight kid, and tne other pair liste thread; two pocket handkerchiels, a small comb, aud a German Lutheran pocket prayer book. Upon the fy-leat of the latter was the iollow- ing, written with pencil, in German:— “Michael Albrecht, from Kuenzbach, married the 19th July, 1866." Upon the chemise and one of the chiets were the initials “S, T. 8., combined in a monogram. It was the opinion ot the physicians who examined the body that the wounds had beea inflicted quite recently. The tollowing evidence was elicited before the Coroner's jury:- G. W.

Politics in the Key Stone State may be set down esina perfect “muddle,” and the politicians, big and little, are allas busy as a certain unmentiona- ite personage is said to be ina gale of wind, trying to see which party is to make the most capital from the breaking up of the political foun- tains. The whigs, or rather that class of politicians who once acted under that name, endeavoring to coax themselves into the belief that there remains enough of vitality in the carcass of the old party to warrant the galvanizing process, have entered upon the task of resuscitation, and, making the wish the father of the thought, hope to show a good front at the enauing fall elections in an out-and-out whig or- ganization. On Tuesday next the primary meetings re to be held for the selection of delegates to the convention which is to nominate candidates for the reveral offices to be filled, and who are tobe sup- ported by the newly organized whigs. The wire- pullers of the move have erected a platform upon which the delegates are to stand as a qualification to a seat in the convention. They have provided that no person shall vote in the primary meetings “who is a member of any secret political organization which proscribes any of his fellow-citizens on ac count of their birth-place or religious opinions.” This plank, you see, is strong against the whig dia. ciples of Sam, and will be incorporated in the pla’. form to be erected by the convention which meets on Tuesday week, the 14th. To guard against acci- dents, and to make assurance doubly sure that no “contumacious” delegates find their way into the convention, the managers have further ordered that the credentials of the delegates from each ward shall be signed by the officers of the election, and proved by the ward association. The originatora of the new move will doubtless find that they have a hard road to travel before the election is over, The democrats hold their primary meetingson the 27th, to elect delegates to the convention on nomina- tions. The American party is the dividing element with them, as with the whigs, aud the ghost which poses them from their stools of power in the State. at kind of a platform they wilt try to stand upon, time alone can dets:mine. The American party have made their nomi 5 and of course fo into the contest upon well ler- stood issues with the opposing factions. The nt lit in the State Council, will, I fear, exert more in- luence upon the party than is generally anticipated. The wound inflicted at Reuding is unhealed; it fe3- ters yet, and its poison is wide extended. It is to be hoped that the sober second thought will come in time to avert serious mischief to the mission of “Sam.” The election is an important one, and the party wich succeeds in ring its discordant materials to order, and relieving itself from the ex- isting muddle, is sure to be the party of tho State. Which will it be? Sam, in Pennsylvania, if he will eschew “niggerism,” is capable of “hoeing his row” with the 0 posing factions combined. Let him stick to his work, and he will come out right. Let him “agitate,” and he is in as bad a muddle as his oppo- nents. Goy. Pollock is. having a food time at the sea- shore.

ParLaperrura, Aug, 4, 1855. The American Convention ef Surgeon Dentists. The American Association of- Dental Surgeons commenced its annual meeting on Thursday, the 2d inst., at Assembly buildings, in this city. At the commencement of the session it was pro- posed to increase the sphiere of usefulness of the so- ciety, by dissolving the association and re-organi- zing under the name of the Deiital Congress. It was urged that this course was necessary in order, give a wider scope to the transactions, and to include in its deliberations a great number of members of the profession who were, by the arbitrary rules of the society, excluded from participating Awaits pro-, ceedings and contributing to the general fund of science the results of their experience. After’ con- siderable discussion the proposition prevailed, and the old association was quietly consigned toa place mong the things that were, and the American Congress of Deutal Surgeons commenced its exist- ence. The experiment has proved in the highest degree successfnl, and the originators of the move have reason to be proud of the benefit which they have been instrumental in conferring upon a most important branch of science. The Congress was permanently organized by the election of Dr. J.B. Rich, of New York, as Presi- dent; Dr. J. S. Clark, of New Orleans, Vice-Presi. dent; Chas. Bonsall, of Cincinnati, Recording Secreta- ry; and Dr. J. H. McGuillen, of Philadelphia, Cor- reaponding Secretary. Upon taking the chair, Dr. Rich made a brief speech, in which he congratulated the Congress upon the bright prospect before them, and alluded to the great benefit likely to accrue from the liberal views and the enlarged sphere of action which the Couven- tion gave to its members. ‘The rest of the day was cee in a discussion upon the use of crystal gold for filling cavities. On ray morning, some of the members thinking that the word “Congress” was rather too loud sounding, and fearing that the term would be taken as an exhibition of arrogauce, moved that the word convention be substituted. The motion, after @ full discussion, prevailed. The remainder of the session was spent in discus- sing the best method of keeping the mouth and cavity dry during the operation of plugging, and of destroying the sensibility of the dentine during ope- rations. The debate was very interesting. This morning, the question before the Convention was as to the best means of separating the tecth, with a view to examination or filling. This was the most interesting discussion of the session, and near: every member of the Convention took part in it Sone advocated the free use of the file in such cases; but the great majority gave their testimony in favor of separating the teeth by means of Iudia rubber. This subject occupied the attention during the entire morning. The resolution fixing upon New York as tho place of meeting next year was reconsidered, and the Con- vention voted to meet in Philadelphia in August next A motion was made that the Convention recom- mend to the profession the establishment of local societies thronghout the country for dental improve- ment. The resolution was unanimously adopted; and after passing a vote of thanks to the officera of the Convention, aud to the dentists of Philadelphia, for their kind and_ hospitable attentions to their er professors from abroad, the Convention ad- journed, to meet agreeable to the reoslution ia re- gard to next year’s Convention. It was expected by many that the subject of chloroform iu dental surgery would find its way be- fore the Convention, incidentally or otherwise; but, owing to good management, or the great interest 0 other discussions, it failed to come up. A pleasant reunion took place, at Parkinson’ raloon, on Thursday evening, being a banquet given Ly the dentists of this city to the membera of th: Convention. About one hundred persons were pre sent, and the manner in which the viands were dis- posed of gave assurance that the dentists were per tectly at home in that department. The supper wa served up in superior style, and nothing was omitte to render the entertainment Cee that coul be desired. Dr. Charles Townsend, of Philadelphia welcomed the visiters in a neat and appropviat speech; after which all did ample justice to th delicacies before them. Speeches and toasts were delivered by Drs. Dwi- nelle, of Cazenovia, N. Y.; J. B. Rich and Charles W. Ballard, of New York city; W. A. Palmer, of Poughk ie, N. Y¥.; ©. O. Cone, of Baltimore: Jobu 8. Clark, of New Orleans, and by Drs. E. Town- send, J. D. White, Robert Arthur and Daniel Neal, of Philadelphia. Altogether this Convention has been the most im- portant meeting of scientific men ever held in this country, and probably the largest meeting of dentists ever beld in the world. e good which such as- semblages must have upon the comfort and well- being of the ple at large cannot but be pea toall. The importance of faithful and skilful opera- tions npon the teeth must be acknowledged, and in no way can the ublic be so well secured from qnacks as by such intercha ges of experience as has heen made during the sessions of this Convention.

Twe Maine Law 1x Mrcntaan—We do not know what could be more cowardly than the manner in which the friends of the liquor law are enforcing it in this city. Itis perfectly notorious that the retail liquor traffic is openly and boldly carried on from one end of the city to the other, and that the wholesale traffic is unrestrained. It is perfectly notorious that whiskey is daily unloaded proa our docks, and that there are immense stocks of liquors in store for sale. Yet the efforts to enforce the law are confined to half a dozen arrests per week of small retailers— some of the smallest in the city. There seems to be an intention to annoy individuals, rather than a de- sire to stop the sale of spirits, for the sources of the traffic are not touched—the wholesale dealers are unmolested. No attempt has been made to put in force the cearch, seizure aud nuisance clauses of the act. Why isthis? The law exists—why do not its friends carry it into fulleffect? They dare not. The; know, in their hearts, that in ite main features it invalid—that it is an oppressive, outrageous and un- constitutional enactment.
