TILERE IS A GOOD TIME COMING FOR
OCEAN STEAM TRANSIT.
TO TIT. EDITOR of THE NORTHERN TIMES.
Sir, Permit me, through your columns, to address
the collovving to

JOHN CLARE, JUN., ESQ.
Dom Sir, Allow me to say, in reply to yours of
the nth inst., I feel obliged by your notice of mine of
the 12th. Permit me to add, lam perfectly aware of
the importance of your general remarks upon such a
subject as that upon which I have written, and also of
the " value" and "practical applicatio4" of my plans.
I have made the assertion, and am prepared, on the
terms of my letter, of the 12th, to abide by the issue.
Have you, or can you procure me, a suitable ves-
sel ? If so, and satisfactory arrangements can be
made, you may shortly pp.

that there are more
things connected ;with mechanical science " when
worked in-harmony with nature's laws," than possi-
bly you ever dreamed of, much less have written abOut
in your wisdom and philosophy. In this remark I
mean " nothing personal ;' but I cannot forbear
making the ..remark, as following upon ydnr
own. You say, to desire a ship at sick
high volocities as am talking about, would require
what the naval mechanical architects of " Great
Britain have not yet taken into the. thinking qualifi-
cations of their mental capacities." Really, my
dear sir, this i 3 saying a great deal. Can you. prolve
it How do you kuow'this ?

Your following rema

that there are some.
steamers building about 330 feet long, upon theordi-
nary " tin-pot" principle,,&e. I take leave here to
say, " I am not identified with any plans meriting
your remarks," and would further add, "neither the
Great. Eastern, nor the vessels building, to which you
hare referred, will, in my opinion, according to the
..
•

name, and which
clap-trap,' &c., will be produced,

ill pvovE

leave to subjoin a copy of my letter, pre-
