 CuAUNcEY F. CLEVELAND. From he St. Louis Republicun Ertra July5 DREADFUL STEAMBOAT EXPLOSION.

 The steamboat Edna collapsed both f1Les ] of her larboard boiler at quarter past o'clock, this morning, at the mouth of the Missouri river.

 The number of wounded is sirty- three, mostly Germans

 The Edna was bound up the Missouri with full freight.

 We were on board the Edna, and never have we beheld such sight. A number of men and women appear to be literally skin ned. The whole force of the steam was thrown aft, over the deck passengers as they slept. They will be removed to the Hospital.

 ANOTHER-AND LOSS OF 56 LIVES.

 From the Montreal Courier, llM inst.

 It becomes our painful duty to record one of the most distressing casualties which has occurred i'll this province since the introduc- tion ot steam on the St. Lawrence. The inrh .ln l between Lachine and Pointe Claire, on her way to Kingston, about 10 o'clock on Satur- day morning, burst her boiler, and, her bows being blown out by the explosion, she went down head foremost There were on board of her at the time about l20 persons, of whom AS were taken up unhurt by three barges in tow, and eighteen were conveyed to the Montreal General Hospital wounded, -54 remain to be accounted for. The captain was the last person who left 1 the boat, and at the risk of his life swam out a considerable distance, and succeeded in l saving one of the passengers from drowning. ] How TO HAVE CoLD WArER.-The PhiIa- delphia Ledger says: "We can suggest mode within the reach of every person. Let the jar, pitcher or vessel used for water, be surrounded with one or more folds of course cotton, to be constantly wet. The evapora- ton of the water from this will carry off the heat from the water inside, and soon reduce it to the freezing point. In India, and other tropical regions, where ice cannot be procu- l red, this practice is common. Let every me- chanic or laborer have at his place of en- 1 ployment two pitchers thus provided, (with ! lids or covers,) the one to contain water for drinking, the other for evaporation; and he can always have supply of cold water in warm weather. Any person can test this, by dipping his finger in the water and holding it in the air, on a warm day. After doing this two or three times, he will find his finger un- comfortably cold.

 THE Ex-HoN. CHARLES F. MITcHELL.-This distinguished financier was arrested on Sat. urday at Philadelphia, and lodged in Moya- l mensing prison, to await a requisition from the authorities of this State. At the time of his arrest he was in charge of officer Wm. R. Coulson, who is the special agent deputed by Gov. Seward to take Mitchell in Ohio, where it was said he resided, and bring him on to New York. On the arrival of the off cer at Baltimore, in company with the pris- oner, the latter was arrested, but being infor- med of the state of the case, the authorities permitted him to depart.

 He was then brought to this city and took

  custody. While here, however, he was re. cognised at the hotel or in tho street by a gentleman from New York, who was his bail while awaiting the sentence of the Court, ! and to whom he gave the slip. who went be- fore Alderman Griscom, made oath to the facts, and demanded warrant for his arrest | as fugitive from justice.

 A warrant was accordingly granted and l placed in the hancs of officer James Byrns, by whom he was arrested, at or near the ho- tel, and taken to the office of the Alderman, about eight o'clock on Saturday evening. whence he was committed to prison to await 1 the requlslt'on ot Gov: Seward. Coulson ap- peared at the office of the Alderman, and left | with him his instrument of authority from Gov. Seward for Mitchell's arrest.

 In addition to the complaint against Mitch- ell by his bail, we understand that warrants have been out against him in this city. for forgeries perpetrated here, by which Messrs. l E. w. Clark & Co. were sufferers, previous ] to his conviction in New w-York.-Erpress.

 REASONS FOR SIGNING BILL. Mr. Tyler, the acting President of the United States, in order to make himself a little more conspicuous than any of his pre- decessors, appears to think it necessary to assign his reasons, not only when he vetoes and rejects any bill that has been passed by both Houses of Congress, but also when it happens to suit his taste to sign bill. We copy from the New York Express, the req sons which the President says induced him to sign the Apportionment bill. and which are deposited with the bill, in the archeves of the Department of State.

 THE REASONS

 "In approving the bill, feel it due to r
