A frightful catastrophe occurred recently in the port of Havre. Tho steam-tug, tho Passe Partout, having got her fires up, was removed towards the entiance of the dock, when suddenly her boiler burst with a teiiific explosion, shattering a great pait of the vessel, and blowing to an immenso height in tho air the captain and such of the crew as weio ou the deck, as nlso tho funnel siiid large pieces of the boiler.. Tho captain and four men have perished ; the first-nameui fell into tho water, and was almost immediately got out by tho crews of the vessels in the neighborhood, who had hastened to lumloi any assistance that might bo possible, but he was all one dreadful wound, and died befoio lie could bo conveyed fo tho hospital. Tho body of one of the sailois was blown over tho masthead of a sloop, and fell a long distance inland, crushed out of almost all lesemblance to anything human ; the body of uuothor sailor was uftCl irillllu f.>»«..J. «.» +1,^ Knld n P *-!.„ ni aA i., n|1 1111 instantly sunk, but whs pailially out of waoinl low t.ido ; tho remains of the othor two have not yet been recovered.
