EF A steam boiler in the foundry of Mr. Wheeler Beers, Bridgeport, exploded on Thursday noon, demolishing a three-stcry brick building, 21 by 75 feet. The occupants, with two exceptions, had gone to dinner, and hence a loss of life was prevented. The only persons in the building were two boys, who were eating their dinners in the only Murder op a Massachusetts Man by Ln-J DIANS. Benjamin Gates, of Wilbraham, started for California last June, by the overland route, and I strayed from his party on the 15th of July to hunt up his horse, when he fell in with a small party of Camanche Indians, who gave him signs of friendship.

One of them, however, enticed him to one side, tomahawked him, shot several arrows into his Hon. Charles Sumner returned from Europe by the Niagara, which arrived at this port Thursday afternoon. The Governor-General of Canada has appointed Friday, the 27th of November, to be observed as a day of general fast, humiliation and prayer, in view of the state of affairs in India.

Mr.

Wild has heretofore maintained a very high reputation, and was looked upon as ons of the pillars of the town. According to later reports, Mr. Wild is supposed to have gone to Cuba. The Either of the missing man, his brothers and partner, have been made the victims of his dishonesty. Forged paper, in addition to the note mentioned above, to the amount of $3000 has come to light Many suppose that the bogus notes thus far brought to light are but a small part of the fraudulent tran part of the building which was not completely lev elled, and consequently escaped unhurt.

El'' The first parade of the Boston Liberty Guard, a colored military organization, under the command of Capt. Louis Gaul, took place Monday afternoon. I hey were accompanied by a white band, and made a creditable appearance. We regret to add that at several points they were rudely assaulted by certain ruffians, who probably were anxious to manifest their faith in the modern doctrine that a negro can have nO rights that a white man is bound to respect.

THERE ARE OCCASIONS When even the healthiest people need medicine, the chan ges of diet, of weather, and hundreds of other causes, produce a laxity in the system that needs correcting, or in other words the liver becomes slightly deranged, and needs a stimulator. If all who find themselves in this situation will try Dr.

Sax. roan's Inyioobatob, they may be sure of relief, as we can testify to its efficacy in curing Headache, Indigestion, Sonr Stomach, and other ills so common in a family.

HUBBARD SQUASH SEED. rpHE subscriber haying introduced this new variety of the Suuasb to public notice.at the solicitation of manv prom inent agriculturists, bas prepared himself to supply tbe jjuuni, ucniiuu who me purest seen raisea. The Hubbard Squash is doubtless the best table squash of all the squash family it Is ranked by all who have tested it, far in advance of the best Marrow or Buston squash, in sweetness, dryness, fineness and compactness of grain and richness of flavor. It is presumed to be an accidental cross between the Marrow and the old-fashioned "Nigger Pumpkin," and having a hard shell, is not bo liable to injury from careless treatment as the Marrow.

It keeps, with ordinary care, three months later than tbe Marrow, being in the market in the spring, when squashes sell at from four to six cents a pound. It is supplanting tbe Marrow and all other squashes as it becomes known. Small packages of seed will be sent post-paid to any part of the country, on tbe receipt of aix three-cent stamps, and double the quantity on the receipt of nine three-cent Btamps, on application to JAMES J.

The State Department has received de-apitchea from Chief Justice Echols, of Utah, dated at Camp Sweetwater, 21 miles east of the South Pass, Oct. 13th, 1857, confirming the report we published last week, that the Mormons had captured three wagon trains, containing in all 78 wagons. The Mormons killed no one, for the reason that no resistance was made.

One report says "The Mormons have opened the ball by burning three supply trains, two on Green Kiver and one on the Big Sandy the centre trains consisting in all of 78 wagons. There was a council among the officers, and it was determined, after hearing the opinion of guides in relation to the country, to go around by the Soda Springs, where the road forks for Oregon and California, and enter the Salt Lake Valley through an extensive valley, where the enow will not be an impediment This determination, the expressman says, was approved by Col. Johnston, who told him to say to everybody, that he intended to winter in the valley or not at all. The Mormons are congregated in large numbers, even on this side of the mountain, burning the grass, and are determined, it seems, to prevent the entrance of the troops into the valley anyhow. They are regularly enrolled in thousands, and if Uou Johnston enters the valley, be can act only on the defensive with his handful of men." The Utah expedition was supplied with full provisions for one year.

The trains destroyed constituted ooly one-sixth part of the whole, and were transporting those articles which could be most spared. It is reported at Washington that the expedition will not suffer the slightest inconvenience from the loss of the destroyed trains, and that the force under CoL Johnston, 2000 men all told, are in no peril whatever, either from the Mormons or the season. CoL Johnston is as well off at one place as another, and he has everything with him necessary for the winter excepting wood and water. Further Particulars the U. S.

Government defied Martial Law proclaimed, A dispatch from Washington on Tuesday, says "The War Department to-day received some highly interesting official dispatches, including a proclamation of Brigham Young, declaring martial law in Utah. He claims the right to do so by virtue of his authority as Governor of the Territory and Superintendent of Indian Affairs, not having been suspended from exercising his functions, and by virtue of his power under the territorial organic act. He expressly forbids the United States troops entering the Territory without his authority for doing so, and complains that the Mormons have not been treated as American citizens, and that the government of the United States has acted on misrepresentations the ohject being to drive the Mormons from the Territory. The language of the proclamation is emphatically in hostility to the authority of the United States, and is regarded here as a declaration of war. When CoL Alexander was within thirty miles of Fort Bridger, which place is occupied by Mormon troops, he received a letter from Brigham Young, through the commander of the Nauvoo Legion, warning the troops out of the Territory; but saying if they desire to remain till spring, they may do so, provided they give up their arms and ammunition but they must then leave.

In the meantime he will see that they are furnished with provisions. The letter was accompanied with two copies of the proclamation, and a copy of the laws of Utah. The commander tells CoL Alexander that he is at the fort to carry out Young's instructions, and expresses the hope that Col. Alexander's answer and actions will be dictated by a proper respect for the rights and liberties of American citizens. Col.

Alexander, in his reply, dated Oct. 2d, says he has given Young's communication his attentive consideration, and will submit the letter to the Gen. eral Commanding as soon as he arrives here, mean, ing Camp Wingfield, on Ham's Fork. In the meantime, he adds, I have to say that the troops are here by order of the President of the United States, and their further movements will depend entirely upon the orders issued by a competent authority."

France and the Slave Trade. The Manchester (Eng.) Guardian contains a letter from Mr.

At a late fire in Cincinnati, Ohio, an individual who happened to be at the door of the steam fire engine house thus describes the effect: "The firemen, who were sitting near the stove, sprang instantly to their different posts.
