It appear! that tbe President bai found It necessary to convey to the Provisional Gov ernor of Georgia, through Secretary eu abd, a bint like that he gave to North Caro Una the other day So many of the south em people are possessed of the notion that their States are as much bound to pay tbe debts Incurred by them In fightiDg ngaln-t the Government ai loyal men are to pay tbe cost of defending it, that President Joimoi? finds It necesrary to ghe them a reminder of the fallacy now and then It may bo that the money furnished Booth and Atzsrodt to defray the expense of murdering Vice President JonTsox forms some portion of the rebel debts, and It can hardly be expected that tbe President would sanction acts that might compel loyal men, his own personal friends among tbe number, to assist In pay- Inn the debts thus contracted And If be would not approve tbe payment of the assassin's bill who aimed at bis own life, we are sure be would not authorize tbe reim bursement of tbe expen-es of as-aislns who struck at the life of the nation He cannot see the loyalty of those who attempt to step in through tbe door of amnesty be hag thrown open, with a bundle of unpaid ac. connta In their hands for services rendered to treaaon. It has been said by Richmond cabers that the political parties have so ur. gently claimed the ownership of the President It a difficult to ascertain who He belongs 10 bat we can assure them of one thing, viz. h li not owned by rebels, and no traitor hind will be allowed by him to be thrust Into 1 yal pockets. If any of them imagine that on. President has become oblivious to the great facts of the rebellion, or forgetful of bis duty to the country, they would do well to dives. their minds of that capital error, and bring fruiUmeet for repentance, instead of offering to the Government the shrUelled husks o treason Promoted for Sltrltorloua Bervlcea.

At tbe time of the accident the enelne was making about thirteen revolutions per minute, ana carrying a steam pressure vary ing from twenty six to twenty eight pounds per Inch. Tbo&t John usually carries thirty pounds, and Is licensed to carry thirty-five, but the safety valves are weighted at thirty three pounds. None of tbe engineers pres ent could give any idea of the cause of the explosion, and all regard it as a profound mystery which can only be solved by the most thorough investigation. At the time of the explosion there were two firemen in, the boiler room, one of whom a Frenchman, name unknown, jumped over board and swam for tbe shore, but it Is sup posed be was drowned.

Kx plosion of the Steamer Colnjock Tbe Norfolk Pott says Our city was startled by a most terrific ex plosion, which shook It like nn earthquake. and caused all the world to rnsh to the doors and windows The concussion was too se vere to be caued by the discharge of even tne neauest ordnance, and everybody felt that some terrible disaster had happened We soon leaned that the small tnr boat Coin- Jock, engaged In tbe business of towing mud- scows out into tne stream to dump tne mud dug by the dredging machines from the dock in frout of Kimberly's wharf, had exploded her boiler while in tbe middle of the river, some two hundred yards from the landing, blowing the boat to atoms and killing all on board We reached our window In time to see tbe fragments of the boat In the air, en veloped in a volume of steam, and doubtless the mutilated bodies of the victims were also flying In space at the same time It was a grand but terrible spectacle boon nunareas oi peopio were ruining to ward the wharf, and the remnant of the wreck left In tbe water was seen to careen and sink to the bottom, leaving the mud scow unharmed, with two colored laborers upon it, surrounded by the floating timbers and tie&ru of the exploded boat In less than five minutes the scene of the wreck was swarming with the small boats from the men of war lying in tho vicinity of the explosion. filled with sailors and their officers, in search of survivors of the explosion or tbe bodies of the unfortunate victims An anxious crowd. among whom were some relatives of those known to be aboard, was assembled on Kim berly's wharf, awaiting Impatiently the re port of thoe who had rushed to the rescrar Tbe mutilated remains of Mr Patten were taken to the warehouse on Kimberly's wharf, where an Inquest was summoned After viewing thebody the coronergave a certicate, and It was given into tbe keeping or bis rela thes, who will at once convey it to Balti more for burial Tbe necktie of deceased was picked up floating in the water, un buckled, having been thus strangely blown from bis neck by a freak of the explosion Parties were engajred all the evening drag ging for the bodies of Captain McCarrlck and Mr Foster The force of the explosion was so great that fine splinters from the wreck were scattered all over the wharf In the neighborhood of Kimberly's, a distance of some two hnndred yards from the place of the occurrence ine excitement in tne com munity was very great, and the wharf was visited by hundreds during the evening, who lingered around the spot as if fascinated by th hnrrori of the traced v. and the affair has cast a deep gloom over the entire city Explosions on Itatltraya.

In the greatest thoroughfare of tbe city, la broad daylight, Henry B Grove, a citizen, was murdered, ana, strange to say, there is not the slightest clue to the perpe trator. It appears that Mr. drove, who Is a Ehotographer, was in the habit of leaving his oarding house, on North High street, near Oay, every Sunday, for his gallery on Balti more Street, near South, for the purpose of finishing up any pressing work on hand Yesterday he left as usual, and at 1 p m his assistant, Mr. John D Phillips, going to tho gallery, was surprised to find Mr. Grove lying in the chemical room of tbe establishment, on the floor, apparently insensible Mr. Phillips Immediately ran down stairs to the lower part of the houe, occupied by J.
