raiSfortiine, is y€

experiment which.the steam-ship is carrying out. The
explosion has not arisen from anything wrong in her

;fines or thei

appurtenances, or from any 'derange-

went in her mechanism or general constniction.. Care-

lessnes, in not seeing that the cock of the steam stand-

pipe was kept open, caused the steam to go on gener-
ating, till the explosion ensued ; and thus is clearly
explained the cause of the fatal disaster. At any rate,
this is the conclusion that has been arrived at so far ;

and apparently it is one that is quite to the point,
There may probably have been. same concurrent causes,
and aggravations of the explosion ; but as a number of

c witnesses a-:e yet to be examined on the

est, we must wait a few days till the whole case is
more fully explained. In the meantime, however,

no reason whatever to suppose that anything is
—anything to militate in the slightest degree
against the cheering prospects of her entire success, as
probably one of the greatest experiments in nautical
science ever yet attempted.
The London strike of the operative builders does not
come to a termination with anything like the despatch
that was expected from the throwing open of the
building-yards, which'commenced on Monday ; and
the great obstacle in the w 4 is still the obnoxious
declaration, which the men arg required to sign,
prohibiting them against certain of the more
mischievous kinds of combinations. So few, indeed,
of the operatives have shown any disposition _to
8411 it, that at several establishments the masters,
tired out with the ruinous derangement to their
macerns which the strike is occasioning, have ,yielded to
the !nen; and other establishments are evincing a desire
follow their example. It is only the large capitalists,
it is evident, that Can afford to carry on the strike for
any length of time ; and the influence of these over the
others, it probably is, that has prolonged the struggle for
Se zany weeks, preventing any such concession being
raade as might have a chance of leading to an amicable
comremise. It is only the more to be regretted, there-,
that the whole disPute could- not be left to the
arbitration of some judicious and independent party.
