BODIES FOUND. - The bodies of Zebulon Stone and Moses Ackerman, who were killed by the boiler explosion of the tug Tornado, came ashore at Stoney Point, near Sacket's Harbor, yesterday. The remains of Ackerman were in a frightful state. The body looked as if it had been boiled - no doubt caused by the forcing of steam through it - and the head was entirely blown away, with the exception of a portion of the lower jaw. - (Oswego Palladium, 20th
