REPORT °fare COMMITTEE on STEAM-BONS. (Concluded from the STAR of Wedoesesday.) Mr. 1 hamar Lean called in, and e:: :mined. 'Will you si ate %cur profession. and place of abode? —I reside at Crowan in Cornwall, and I am employ. ed by nearly the wh ,, le of the miners in Coma all to inspect their engines, and make monthly reports of the work they perform. You are then well acquainted with steam engines of every various construction ?—Certainly I am; I see fifty-seven every month Do you conceive that there is any material diffe rence in the vaoective safety of those engines?— Some of the eligines are certainly safer than others. Be so good us to state which, and why ?—I con ceive there is Li a dinger whatever in the use of high pressure steam engines; and for this reason, that in general, for an engine that is interacted to be worked with high steam, the materials are made stronger in proportion than the materials used for steam of low pressure. What are the precautions which you think it neces sary to take, in order to render a high steam engine perfectly sale from accident ?—The rn demi, should be made strong enough, and there is no difficulty in doing that ; and there is a good deal depending en the construction of the safety-valve, which should be so constructed as to go quite easy and without any possibility oi sticking. • Do you nut o:ink it of importance, it not reces. nary, that a boil-r should have two safety-valves ?--- Certainly ; and every high Rome steam engine that if attend to has two safety valves. Do not you confine one of those from the engine man?—Not in any instance. Should you or not think it necessary, on board a boat for passengers worked by a steam engine, that there should be an additional safety-valve to the boilers which the engine-man could not come at to prevent its operation ?—That - would certainly be very desirable, and I should think necessary. Have you any choice, in point of safety only, be tween a boiler constructed of cast iron or of wrought iron ?—Were I to baye a boiler where I wished to have the greatest strength, I would certainly have it made of cast iron ; 1 have not one doubt that a cast iron boiler can be made much stronger than it is pos sible to make a wrought iron one; in fact the explo skins that we have had in Cornwall have all been in wrought iron boilers, but I never had one in cast iron boilers, nor have we had an accident from high pres sure steam ; all the accidents have been from low pressure steam in Cornwall. To what do you attribute that ?—I attribute that to the boilers not having their proportionate strength to the weight they ought to bear, that the high pres sure steam engines have. Of what nature are those failures which usually happened in the wrought iron boilers?—The one which I witnessed the explosion of, threw off the man- Is le door. Do you mean that the bolts by which the man-hole dour was secured gave way ?—Yes. Are there not man-holes to cast iron boilers ?—Yes. Then might not the best constructed and the strongest cast iron boilers have been equally liable to the accident you have been mentioning, from the mere failure of the bolts, by which the man-hole door was secured ?—Certainly not, and for this reason, the man-hole door to a cast iron boiler is contrived to be flu the inside; it dues not depend upon bolts at all as they a:e constructed with us, it bears against the side Of the boiler. Would it not be equally easy to affix man-holes so constructed to wrought iron boilers?--There is no difficulty in doing it, either one way or the other. Supposing a cast iron boiler and a wrought iron boiler to be exploded by having too great a pressure applied, from which of the explosions should you ap prehend the great-cc danger ?—I think the danger is equal from one as the other. In what manner do you apprehend then, that a cast iron boiler would explode ?—Probably there might be some parts of the cast iron boiler separate, and the wrought iron boiler would probably rend. Shettl.l rot not then apprehend a greater danger from the explosion of a boiler which burst into frag ments, than from one which only rent ?—ln every boiler that is built, there is one part of it weaker than another, and it is hardly possible for a boiler to. be thrown about in fragments to do mischief. 1 shohld not feel any hesitation to sit on the cast iron boilers I base seen in Cornwall when an explosion took place ; I am convinced the explosion would take place at the under part. Do you think it necessary or advantageous that those boaers should be proved at their first erection, rind that that proof should afterward; be repeated at intervals ?—li is certainly desirable it should be done at the first erection ; they ought always to be proved; the cast iron boilers which have come tinder my no tice in Corn Wall, I calculate to be sufficient to resist at least thirteen times the pressure of steam we have ever used in them, To what heat are those boilers usually proved ? We work in general 40 lbs. to an inch in the high pressure boilers, and we prove them sometimes as high as three hundred. By a proof of this nature, so much within the sop poted capacity of resistance of a boiler, pp do not apprehend that any risk is incurred of injuring it ? Certainly not. And you yet conceive, that the proof is so far be. yond the ordinary resistance which is required from, the boiler, as that there is no danger whatever of its bursting with a pressure of 40 or 5() lbs. an inch, when it has been proved by a pressure of three hun dred ?—Certainty not. ,Do you apprehend, that it is perfectly easy so to construct and to secure your safety.valves, as that no engine.man, however careless, shall be able to raise 1 1 the steam beyond the pressure of 40 or 50 lbs. per inch ?—Thele certainly is not the least difficulty in it. You apprehend then, that with a boiler so con strticted, so proved, and so guarded against careless. mess, there would be no danger whatever in any situa tion t.-Certainly not . ; neither in a steam boat or an engine employed In a manufactory or mines, or i n any manner whatever. As 'to the economy in the use of coals, what is your opinion ?—My opinion is, that the high pressure en gines in Cornwall have saved at least two-fifths of the who!e consumption of coals in the county; in some instances it has saved three•fifths. What means bare you for ascertaining that fact ? In the mimeo of my ordinary employment, attend to the various engines in Cornwall, and com pute their duty; the quantity of coals that is con sumed by the engines, is rendered to me an oath ; it is the same that is sworn to at the Custom-house.— The ascertaining the weights which the engine lifts is caretolly and correctly measured ; and from this I calculate the work performed by the engines, of which I make a monthly report, and find, that tlicse engines which work with a high pressure steam are more economical in their operations than those c: the low pressure, so much so, that were the low pres sure steam engines to be introduced into the mines of Cornwall, it would stop upwards of two-thirds of them. _ _ Is the paper which you have, one of those accounts ? It is the account for thelast month. And this account you have declared, upon your own knowledge, to be accurate as to the particulars it contains ?—I do. Do you consider it as important to the safety of an engine, that the boiler should be frequently cleai.sed ? It a boiler is foul, if there is a quantity of mud in it, it may prevent the water from coming in contact wits the iron, and in that case the boiler is liable to injury; 1 have known a wrought iron boiler to burst from that very cause; I never knew a cast iron boiler to explode in any instance. Is there any difficulty in subjecting the boiler to the usual proof, every time it is cleansed ?—There is no difficulty whatever, any other than having the apparatus prepartd for it, which is very easily done. Is that apparatus chinr expensive, or difficult of construction or application ?—No. Can it ►.e applied with ease by any engineman or engine proprietor, who is at all acquainted with the construction or working of a steam engine ?—Y••s ; and the mileage:trent of it is so plain that no persons can misunderstand it, if they are acquainted with all the other parts of the engine. In what does this proof consist, and how is it per formed ?—The proof consists of first filling the boiler with water, and then loading the safety valve to any point required; then injecting water by a forcir v. pump, till the safety valve, with the additional weigh; upon it, is raised. Have you any other suggestions to make on the subject of the setety of steam engines, besides what you have already said ?—I think not. Mr. George Dodd, again called in, and examined. . For what purpose do you attend ?—To produce a new safety valve. What are the advantages attendant on the safety valve which you have to offer to the Committee ? I propose to the Committee the valve I now offer as a second valve, as it admits of being locked up so as to be inaccessible to the engine worker ; it prevents the possibility of his obstructing its action, either by going into the boiler when the boiler is cool, ot under any circumstances whatever.—[The witness produced it.] Is there any provision against the valve adhering in any part, so as to prevent its operation ?—There is; the safety valve has not a conical bottom as is usual in most safety valves, but has a flat bottom resting upon a flat circular ring. the steam escapes from the sides of the box thr'•u a :h apertures, so constructed as that nothing can be introduced to impede its action. Later, Eq. called in and examined. What is your place of abode and profession ?—I am an engineer, residing at No. 3, Mount -street, Lambeth. For what purpose do you attend ?—To exhibit the plan of a safety valve, in consequence of my having presented a Petition to the House of Commons, which was referred to this Honourable Committee. Be pleased to produce your plan ?—The valve of which 1 here deliver in the drawing, is so constructed as to prevent the pos►ibility of any person having access to it to prevent its action ; it is self-acting en• tirely from the gravity of a column of water acting upon the valve, which prevents its being locked by any mode, and it cannot adhere because it is not a cone acting in another cone, but a fiat surface pres sing upon the top of a cylinder and being enclosed in a box and the steam getting out at the bottom, there is no matter can get upon the valve to cause ;is adhestQn. T!'e works of the Regent's Canal were resumed on his Royal Highness's Birthday; the compittlon of the tunnel under Islingtun being the first object, un til arranrements can be made for employing the un occupied poor along a space of more than six miles in the diSerent parts and works of the Canal, from the Hampstead-road to the basin at Limehouse. Thursday se'nnight Lord Bec-rtvz, accompanied by numbers of the Nobility and Gentry, assembled at the Trim Assizes, laid the fitst stone of the very beautiful Corinthian Pillar, now .2recting there in ho nour of the Duke of WELLINGTON. His Lordship nude a very animated and appropliate speech on the occasion, and paid a just tribute to the character of the illustrious Hero, which was highly gratifying to the assemblage, who gave three most hearty cheers. Wednesday, as a man of war s boat Was bringing into Margate a contraband boar, with a cargo of 105 tubs of liquor, and tour smugglers belonging to it, a large concourse of people assembled on the Pier-head, and when the boat approached the shore, assailed the midshipman and his crew with such a shower of brick-bats and stones, that they were forced to give up the smugglers, who made their escape. At Deddington. near Oxford, one day last week, a little pig having got its head between two rails, and crying out vehemently, a boy ran to its asti.:ance, and while in the act of extricating it, the sow, its mother, seized him by the arm, broke it in two places, and terribly bruised and lacerated it with her teeth. _ _ ATROCIOUS MURDER.—An atrocious murder was discovered, near Petersfield, on Thursday mousing last t the unfortunate victim is supposed to hive betn in the habit of travelling the country with crockery ware. His body was discovered about ten o'clock in the morning, in a hay field, close adjoining the turn pike road, within a quarter of a mile of Petersfield ; his breeches, or pantaloons, and hat, were missing ; the body, which had several mortal stabs about it, did not appear to have lain long in this state ; on his shirt was masked "Z. Searsun, No. 7, 1811." The perpetrator of this foul and apparently cool-blooded act, is supposed to be a sailor, with whom the de ceased was seen in company, OR the previous after aeon and evening. NELSPA'S PILLAR. The interesting spectacle of laying the Erst stone of a Naval Pillar on Yarmouth Denes, to comme mores the v;ctories of the immortal NEcsoN, took place on Friday. At half past twelve the procession moved to the place cht•sen for this national memorial of British heroism in the following order s Constables, Flags, Band, Mayor and Corporation, Officers of the Navy, Model carried by Sai!or3, Flanked by Sailor,' carrying Flags. Architect and Secretary, Committee, Flsgc, &c. The first stone was laid by Clone' WODF1101:SE, as Chairman of the Committee. The day being five, rendered the sight truly animating. In the stone was placed a plate, on which was engraved a Latin in . ....crption, written by Mr. Serjeant FRERE, the learned Master of Downing, of which the following is a translation : HORATIO, LORD NELSON; • Whom as her first and proudtst Champion in Naval Fight, illitais honoured, whale living, with her favour, and. when lost, with her tears ' - Of whom, signalized by his triumphs in all lands, e whole Ernk Stood in awe, un account of the tempered firmness of Ws counsels, And the undaunted ardour of his courage; This grre man Airfoil Boasts her own, not at ly as born there at a respectable family, And as there having received his arty education, But her emu also in talents, ntasiner, and mind.

The followipg trial of courage of M. Quostam, Captain of the Trois Z. res. which lately took fire in Cherboursy Roads, is recorded in the Chet-tours Journal: —Recoilecting that a barrel of powder stood near tl.c part of the ship where the file was raging, he flew to the spot and removed the barrel, which had already become extremely hot, in conlequence of its proximity to the flames. By this act of intrepidity he preserved the vest 1 and the crew from the dreadful effects of the explosion, which would infallibly have taken place in a few minutes. Friday, the Royal Sovereign yacht, Captain Sir EDWARD Owes, sailed from Deptford to Brighton.- The new yacht, the Royal George, has already sailed for the same place. No expense has been spared in rendering the latter vessel most complete in all its decorations ; and wines of every description from the cellars of Carlton-house, with other stores. were put on board previously to her departure. She is the largest, and therefore possessing more accommoda tion than any Royal yacht hitherto constructed. A division of picked seamen and petty officers from the Northumberland, 74., at Sheerness, are r n board as the crew during the attendance of this elegant vessel on the PittscE REGENT; and suits of new clothing have been provided for them on this occasion, as also , new sets of colours, including the Royal Standard of silk, which is to be displayed on board the yacht. Thursday night a woman was brought into the London Hospital with her right arm dreadfully la cerated. She and her husband having a quarrel, she leaped out of the window, which was three stories' high, when her arm was caught by a large iron spike, which was driven in the window sill to hold garden. , pots. In this perilous situation she was suspended for about three minutes, when her piteons cries brought some p , rson into the room, in which her husband was in a state of stupefaction, who pulled her in at the window. Stioacteci TuaNsacrion.—At the Clonrael As sizes, E. Cormici WAS indicted for a burglary and robbery in the dwelling house of P. Dowling, at Fro wn., on the of April last, and convicted thereof. This prosecution exhibited an unusual character of the most disgusting depravity. It appeared from the evidence of old Dowling, that on the above night his housz was entered by a breach through the wall and the thatch, by three men, armed, who after wards admitted two more at the door. Dowling knew three of them, the prisoner and his two sons, al. though the faces of all the party were partially dis guised by streaks of black dirt down their forehead. They were armed with two guns, two bayonets, and a pistol. In order to extort a confession where his money was, they roasted him, by placing his back on the tire, and applying a heated fire-shovel to his beily ; they also burned his wife's arm and body in a shocking manner, for the same purpose. Having procured information where the money lay, they plundered him. of 19s. sd. and some clothes ; and during this pillage, while the father and mother were writhing under their torture, four of the villains dragged Dowling's daughter, a girl between 17 and 18 years of age, into an inncr room, and suc cessively violated her person ; tee) of these villains, who immediately fled from justice, being the sons of the prisoner. It appeared, that this girl had been taken off by two strangers (according to the custom) some time previous, in order to force her marriage with one.of these delinquents, J. Cot tr• id:, one of the above meinioned sons of the prisoner ; that she was restored however to her family in a few days, unin. , jured ; the taking off being with a view to extort a formic. Her father being willing to give her £2O, these fellows hoped, that by blowing on her charac ter, they could extort 4100, the negotiation for mar tiage broke off. They persisted in this hope, and took her off a second time, when she persevered in refusing to marry Cormick, and she was permitted to return a second time, without violation, with a re ' newel of the proposition for a marriage, which, as before, was again rejected. In the outrage now on trial, when old Dowling was shrinking under the buruing, one of his younger children, not ten years old, ran out to assist her father, when one of theie fiends struck her a blow with the but-end of his bayonet, rshich broke her skull, and has left a mark in it into which the top of a man's thumb could be thrust ; and in the first attack on the father, he re ceived various bayonet wounds in the body and thighs, and had four teeth knocked out. Dowling's daughter corroborated his evidence. rnrcr.
