Steam Navigation.
The followilg PaMgrash is from the American Daily Advertiser:- PHIILADELPHIA, Asrnix, 20, 1824. DxSTa'r1t1XssN OCCURRYNecCE.-The detention of the southen mail of yesterday was owing to an unfornunate accident, which a passenger by the steam-boat relates as follows :-" The Con elitt- tzoa, one of the Baltimore line, whlich had the mail on board, left that alty at the usual time yesterday, sav 5 in the afternoon, on her route down. When oft'NoTh Point, sa'w a steam-boat with a signal of distressitg flyinze, enveloped in smoke; bore down, hailed, and .ound it was the Eagle, Captain Weenms, on her first trip fromn An- na,polis to Baltimore, an(l lamnentable to say, bad burst her boiler a(rat 15 miutes before, which occasioned the dIcath of one nman, a soldier, who had recently been discharged, and five per.odbs wounded, somae ofi jvom dangeroisly; the boat on fire, and a complete wreck. Cap)tain Robinson, of the Consiitution; at thc urgent request of the unfortunate survivors, and after consulting his passengers, tool the boat in tow, and retutned to Baltimore for mnedical aid, and kft there at nearly one lhiis morning. Had not the ConsUtw tiont fortunately fell in wtith this vessel, the great probability is that in Icss than ain hour she would have bumt to the water's edge, and every soul on board perisbed, as it was nearly dark when this cir- cumstance occurred. Miluch credit is due to tne Captain and crew of the Copstauli&7z in lashing her alongside, (as it blew a gale of wind at the time,) as also in e inguishin the flames." STEAMNA VIGATION.
