SHIP,. BUILDING. (From lace London Spectator.) according to the common form of building; is one of Th f tallest of vessels that ever art, in its infancy, constructed. t 4 hull consists of a series 'Of piece's of timber fastened at fiL t angles t o , eac h other ;• whiCh• in their aggregate are so to1; er " 8 , and, from the mode ,in which they are fastened, Haanre so slightly that it requires the actual external . pres Sure water to aid them together. finder ordinary circum fpn.ea, whenever a ship takes the ground, and the support t it' without is withdrawn, it falls to pieces on - the slightest 14 - u7 t i")n, from the ,mere effect of its own gravity. Not. only • e form of building of all others the weakest, and only to witterfeetly suStaiiied by the pressure of the denser fluid from itaie l2 , but- the expedients adopted with a view to keep that feet . l .' in n its proper place are of. the most bungling and imper 7 wit e u ngh . t be supposed, that,. however ignorant of' the princi tio:f,dtagonal ties.; common sense would, without any instruc re ught a ShipbUilder t rise all accessible mean§ to whYeut his ta vessel from leaking. o To leave a hole unstopped, t ere the stopping .of it is matter of plain and practicable o t e :e i ssity, seems the very sum of stupidity. Yet this sum of ii e Z;lity• has been attained to, and is still persevered in, by a rt all the shipbuilders in the world. Nay, the resources of aave been' calle:1 into action still further to weaken what 4:Previously feeble ; and means and appliances 'have been o e 7 make that doubly hazardous which was naturally ob tfle tis. to injury. The•phurk which runs parallel and next to Xll it —is bottom plank, as - one of the 'uninitiated . woul , , d , lf termed by the .shipbUilders the " . garboard streak: th a ere be any part of the vessel that requires to be stronger 114' 4 1 ,anotlier, with a view to" gnard against leaking, it this i L K; for it is plain to the meanest capacity, that the pressure t ka "„ water must increase in force as we descend—that a very u hole at the extreme depth of the vessels hold, will pour i 0 ranch greater stream than a hole of larger dimensions near s w ater-line; added to this, a damage, in the former case, is , a t with much greater difficulty than in the latter. Now, t t " , i 'd it be believed, that not only is. this " garboard streak" ti 4 h s trimger than the rest of the planking, but that it is inYa 44.wealter--that the sub Stance of it is cut into and chin , ,` , In order to serve as a water-duct for the pumps—that in a L ' ei Bl of a thousand tons, the utmost defence, that is placed e v "`ent.he crew, the passengers, the cargo, and destruction, its first voyage, and in its best and soundest state, is t e ,;:tlches of oak timber ; that a toUch from a pointed bit of to scratch its own anchor—is• sufficient, at any time, e ve ' r uwn, with all its contents, the proudest Indianan that g floated. ut this is not all. The " garboard streak" is not the only 4 aerahl e point ; every part, froni the keel to the water-line, th e unsafe. ,Pierce the outer planking, and dowugoes k N i s ip; e. let one-tenth part of the substance of its mighty i s d apparently substantial sides be destroyed, and the whole t a 'l e 'troyed. How is this? landsmen will say. Nothing is t h sier of explanation. The outer planking is the only part of Ik e vessel that is inipervious to water. Destroy that, and the t t - i en % George is as much at the mercy of the waves, as was the If" e i of Caractacus, .when the cow-hide that covered its th:l.cer_woric was destr?yed. The ponderous ribs gape to Admit e 1, .) full stream; the inner planking, though somewhat more 1 3'' fitted, is equally p . erYrous. 4 4. 11. liobett Seprnngs, in the navarmarine, had the merit . of !,oi l N)Plying a remedy to the gross and apparent defects of ship )tt '"ng after, the old •plan. He remedied its weakness by the OduCtion of diagonal ties; he filled 'up the' interstices be -1114"1 the ribs, so as - to render the entire wall:of the vessel's equally waterproof. :Vcssels'huilt according •to Sir Ro.; plan are immeasurably stronger; they ,can sustain much 14 ;1?er th e fury of the waves ailo t; and they can taky the lo l i i nd with much more security: Before they Can. 'spring a 44,,,t it i s absolutely necessary that the entire side be beaten in ti , forated, thnt. the,cohesion of the different. arts of the to ti n 7 eWork be wholly broken. When a vessel, built according it a olur plan, is diiven ashore in blowing : weather, the almost tOlable consequence is its total destruction in an hour or kr,°"; • Hundreds of lives,. and tens of thousands of property, th; I .?st every year, that would have been saved had the wrecked Oeen strong enough to hold together for a single tide, Sir ett Sepping's plan presents an infallible remedy for such If a vessel of his Imikreannot be got off a rock or shoal, 14' 44 at least keep , together while on it, until the crew.be got Wilf : As we have already noticed, the smallest external damage I,_ e es to sink a vessel built after the old plan. When such a c rl e I t a k es th e gro-uncommonly,, it is therefore, not -uncomonly, its. 14, g,orous to heave it off, as to let, it remain. We might cite, It - dJavincible, seventy-four, at Yarmouth--the Abergayenny, e . ,, 1 a/lian, at Portland; but examples are trite of yessels that k, e touched the sand even. sinking the instant - they were V i rd into deep water. Against ._evely..anch , acte,i(leizty4ir-R 0- \Oepping's plan is' an effecb!al safeguard. • e had long thought, that his invention (for it may well be a. n.. 4 ed so . ) was ineapable of im m proYeerit; but Mr. Balling:ill, r btleman who acts as manager' Ottke''Klitkaldy and London ti q t ) .Ping Company, : hag offereda. suggestien, wIWh does see tie t loconilerable- improvement. In the old ;; plan, only. ,the * tr: r Planking is rendered waterproof; in the new, the timbers t,,tri4de waterproof. Mr. -Baß a ingall Makes 'assurance doubly Ii e • by calking, the ;7itter planking. Not only is this an arldi- W n 'ad safegnird against le-aks-,--it is the best•preventive of mt.

" Sia,—ln reply to your letter of this date, signifying the request of the committee for managing the affairs at Lloyd's, to' be informed whether orders have been received by the Board of Customs, for giving permission for all Dutch vessels which had declared outwards previous to the embargo, to sail for Hovland, I have it in command to acquaint you, for the information of the committee, that the Board have not received directions to the above effect, but that orders have been issued 63 the officers of this department not to stop any British ship or vessel which may have cleared out previously to the date of the Order in Council of the 6th inst„ and I hereby transmit a copy of the order issued upon the subject. (Signed) "C. ScovEtL, Sec." J. Bennet, Esq., Lloyds. To the Collector and Comptroller at "GENTLEMEN,-With reference to the Order in Council of the 6th inst., directing that no ships or vessels belonging to any of his Majesty's subjects be permitted to enter and clear out for any of the ports within the dominions of the King of the Netherlands until further orders, the Commissioners direct that no stop be made of any British ship or vessel cleared out previously to the date of the said Order in Council, but that the masters of such vessels, after being warned of the proba bility, of their detention in the Dutch ports to which they may be bound, be forthwith permitted to proceed on their voyage. (Signed) "C. SCOVELL." " Custom House, London, Nov. 19, 1832." This is only another specimen of the abominable sys tem of error by which every proceeding of the Administra tion is marked. It is now thirteen days since the decla ration of embargo was made, and, during this period, Bri tish vessels, laden, and on the very point of starting when' the order appeared, have been, to the serious loss of the ship and cargo, confined to port. Yesterday,-when a decree of the King of Holland was received, ordering British vessels to quit the ports of his dominions, and giving notice that they will not be. per mitted- to enter into any of the ports of Holland, an order from our Government is sent, allowing them to sail. This is regarded in the City as something worse than im becility. Had the order been issued a week ago, thou sands of pounds would have been saved to our merchants, but now it is useless. SOMERVILLE'S GUN. ( From the London' Spectator.) Two more instances of death by Gun Accidents are recorded in Our columns. We were about to express p ur regret, for the hundredth tithe, that such disasters—which, to us at least, ap pear of so easy prevention—should be ever and anon occurring; and to call the attention, once more, of such gentlemen readers and shoOters as have nofanCy for shooting themselves or their friends, .to Somerville's , safety-gun ;: when our eye lighted on a letter from a correspondent, begging for a description of that most useful invention, and asking where it was to be procured, and what it cost. We can only: answer the latter part of this queStion by stating, that Mr. Somerville has a patent; that he resides in Scotland; and that in Edinburgh unquestionably, but we should think also in London, the gun may be goat—*e ourselves haVe Seen it in" London, but in the hands of' a sports man. Its *Cost above that of a gun of the ordinary kind, we cannot estimate exactly, for much of the price of all guns de pends on the name ,of the maker and the fashion; we believe, laoWever, that the cost of adapting the safety-apparatus to a common gun is Some four or five pounds. . Mr. Somerville, we have said, resides in Scotland: he is, in fact, the, worthy clergyman of a rural parish a few. miles frotn the , Modern Athens; and 'his happy invention-for so we truly deem it---..was first suggested by the tragical death; from a gdn accident, of the son of one of his own parishioners. It is not easy to describe hii safety-gun without a 'diagram; but' the principle of it is easily understood. In firing the ordinary gun, one motion is alone necessary,, and hence its danger. A. twig, a stone •a shake even,' any force sufficient to draw the trigger, puts :the life of the : owner of the fatal instrument, and of his companions, in j . eopardy. To discharge the safety-gun, N. in ° Otions are required,. one with the left and the other with the right hand; the left must release the gtthrd :spring, 'the right draw the trigger, before the gun can possibly, go off--hence its safety. The simultaneous application of two separate forces to two separate points; for, the production of a common" effect, naturally indicates, as Alt. Somerville, in his printed descrip tionof it, well remarks, shot-by aeddent,' but a combinatiO4 and forethought, that exclude the idea of' accident. • .Now, it must not be imatrined by sportsmen, that the spring, operated on by the left hand , impedes in any degree the free use of the gun. The very contrary is the case. As the safety gun cannot possibl be descharged until the moment when the bearer desires it, i t always Carriedcoded. ThUS, instead Of losing time, E the spring saves time. The sportsman has bOt to raise his weapon to his shoulder and fire; wheieas, with an, ordinary gun, he 'must' first cock, then level, then fire. The ; perfect practice of the spring may be acquired by the dullest' dog that ever followed a, four-footed brother, in 'an hour Or two's exercise; in his room, previous to taking the field; and,, in a very short tiine--a, day or two at most--the left hand is found to perform its function with the same readiness of in stinct that the forefinger of the right performs its function. • Soon after the-safety-gun was invented, Mr. SomerVille cir culated, among a few of those who were content to• try its effi cacy, a set of 'queries; among which Were the following Can you kill more game with Mr. Somerville's gun than with an ordinary one? "2d. How much more, calculating on the whole season, and taking into the account accidental rises?" The answers were uniform: we need only quote those of Lord Hopetoun's gamekeeper : "Ist. Certainly I can kill more game with Mr. Somerville's gun than with the old: "2d. I think Mr. Somerville's gun gives a superiority of one fourth absolute safety,* and 25 per cent, of additional execu tion." . . Is any thing else required ?. The " absolute safety," against accidents, is not in the ratio of one-fourth, but beyond all proportion. Indeed, we have always con- sidered accidental d►scharge to have been rendered, by this invention, impossible. Even agairst the bursting of the barrel, Mr. Somerville lias provided a safeguard. • WISE tING ( i!ront the Irish.) The following passages have been translated from the Rook of Balitnute, fo. 75. The transiatitins are given, as the original is too obsolete for the preiient.purpose, and the necessary- ex planations to render it intelligible would revire too much rem. The first paragraph is froin the " Advice of COonue I,Vado, (the long-bearded, ). to his son," Carbre, Anno 254 • ' No fellowship with a king—no falling out with a inadman-- no dealing•with a revengeful man-=no competition with the. powerfulr-no wrong to be done to seven classes of persons, ex eitcd to. anger, viz.: a bard, a commander, a woman, a pri sbner,n drunken person, a druid, a king in his . own'tleininions. `No stopping the force of a . going wheel by gtrength of hand — no forcing the..sea—no entering a battle with broketChands— no i t teiiliterling the grief of 'a sorrowfutinan—no Merriment in the seidef - justice—no , grief at feasts—no oblivion in ordinances or laws- 7 -no contention with a righteous person-no mocking of a wise man--ho staying in dangerous roads--no prosperity' .shall follovi , malice—in coveting of skiimishes—a lion is Kota safe companion to all persons—three deaths •that ought not to be lienioaiiect: the'deathof a fell:toi l , the death of a thief, and the death oftr. proud prince—threet ings'that advance the sub, ject:•.to be tender to good wife, to serve a good prince, and to be Obedient:to a good governor."

Mir:tire/v. BRITISH COLONIAL TRADE. • (From the New York Journal of Come? ce.) The falling off in our registered tonnage, as shown by the annual commercial statement of the Secretary of the Trea sury, has very naturally led to an inquiry into the' caue. Some have attributed it to the influence of the Tariff ; and others to the late commercial arrangement with Great Britain in respect to the Colonial trade. Wishing only to ascertain the truth en this subject, whatever it may be, we have made a careful investi gation into the returns of the three last years, so far as they have any bearing upon the trade affected by that arrangement, the result of which we present below. It will be remembered that President Jackson issued his Proclamation opening our Ports to British vessels from the British West Indies and other British American Colonies, on the sth of October, 1830; and that the Order in Council opening the British colonial ports to American vessels from the United States, was issued on the sth of November of the same year. News of its being issued, reached this country some trine in December ; and of course the year included in the last annual statement, ending 30th September, 1821, embraced a period of only about nine mouths, during which, as far as American vessels were con cerned, the arrangement was in operation ; to show the effect of this arrangement, we shall, in the first place, take into view the trade with the British West Indies only; including, be sides the Islands, the continental provinces of Demerara, Esse quibo, &c. The first and second columns show the amount of tonnage which entered our ports from those Colonies in the years specified, distinguishing British from American. The third and fourth columns show the amount of tonnage which departed from our ports f*the same Colonies in the same years. It will be understood" that the year, in every case, ter minates on the 30th of September : Entered. Departed. American. British. American. British. 1831 38,016 23,760 40,922 17,903 1830 22,428* 182 2,395 none. 1829 32,777 317. 5,418 none. 1828 35,149 313 . 7,974 313 Hence it appears that on an average of three years before Mr. M`Lane's arrangement went into operation, the amount of American tonnage entered into the United States per annum from the British - West Indies, was 26,785; and of British 270. In'lB3l, American 38,046; British 23,760. Increase of Ante rican tonnage entered horn, the British West Indies in 1831, 'in consequence of the new arrangement, 11,261 ; ditto of British 23,519. Total, 34,780. The annual average of American tonnage departed from the United States'for the British West Indies during three years prior to 1831, was 5,262; British 104. In 1831, American tonnage, 40,922; British 17,903. Increase of American ten nage departed for the British West Indies in 1831; in conse quence •of the new arrangement, 35,660; ditto of British 17,779. Total, 53,439. But this is a limited view of the subject. Every one who knows any thing about commerce, is aware that the interdic tion of our trade with the British West Indies, did not anni hilate that trade, but only turned it, with some abridgment, into other channels. Vessels with cargoes destined for Jamaica, Barbadoes, and St. Vincent, proceeded to the Danish Islands of St. Thomas and St. Croix ; the Swedish Island of St. Basis, &c., where they were certain to be made welcome, and their cargoes almost as surely found their way to their intended des tination, as if they had been landed on the wharfs of Kingston and the other ports for which they were designed. In order, therefore, to see the full operation of the arrangement, so far as the West India trade is Concerned, we must take into the account not only the British West Indies, but also the Danish and Swedish West Indies, which were the Islands principally resorted to by vessels from this country, as places of trans shipment and deposit. The result is as follows: Entered. Departed. 1831 American, British. American. British. British W.
