ATLANTIC STEAM NAVIGATION.

• (From the Scotsman.)"
.The grand experimentof a voyage by steam to America itratl
last begun. The distance from Bristol to •New York is 3500
English miles. To perform the voyage in fifteen days, the ves-
sel must sail 233 miles a day, or very nearly ten miles an hour.
When we keep in mind that, for two-thirds of the distance, she
Must reckon on working against head-winds, to say anything of
occasional storms, we greatly doubt if so high'a rate of speed
can be maintained. Dr. Lardner found that' the government'
steamers plying to Corfu made only seven miles and a quarter
per hour, and in very long voyages he thinks the run will not
exceed 160 miles. 'labia was written, however, in 1834, and since
that time the performance of the Leith and Dundee, ships ply-
ing to London renders it probable that the doctor's estiinate is
a good deal too low. We have little doubt that the Great Western
may sail on an average aboutMO miles a day, which is only 8
1-3 miles per hour. On this supposition the voyage will occupy
172 days. 'the voyage back, with the advantage of the prevail-
ing westerly winds, may be accomplished in 15 days. From a
list of voyages between Liverpool and New York, prepared a'
few years ago, it appeared that the average trip 'of the sailing
vessels was about 2U days eastward, and 30 westward.
The reduction of 30 days to 174- however, and 20 to 15, is but
a trifle to the real advantage (mined. The benefit in the use of
steam navigation is not to be estimated by the abbreviation it
effects in the mean length of the voyage, but by the regularity
it ensures. When a person sets foot in a Liverpool packet for
New York. the probability is that the voyage may be finished in
thirty days; but it is quite possible, as' experience ahows, that
it may be prolonged fifty.. All who have business to transact,
all to whom time is precious, or 'he sea a -cause 'of sickness or
ennui, will set an inestimable value on the punctuality of steam
navigation, whicir offers the certainty of aecomplishing the voy- -
age-within two or three days beyondthe mean period, instead of
twenty or thirty. The magnitude of such floating hotels as the
Great Western, we also consider a decided advantage. With a
hundred fellow passengers, you are completely master of your
own movements, You may be silent at table, read, draw, solve
problems, or employ yourself as you please. But with a dozen,
you-must-take the colour of your comp, whatever it be, or
lie reckoned an odd fish, and cut or quiz= An acquaintance
of ours who crossed the Atlantic, complained grievously of a
knot of puppies who domineered in the cabin and insulted the
other passengers:
The risk in steam vessels is diminished in proportion to the
time saved. There are, probably, a certain number, say six or
eight dangerous storms, in the North Atlantic in a year. It is
evident that your chance of encountering one of those in a voy-
age of 172 days is scarcely more than one-half of what it is in a
voyage of a month.
The short distance between the nearest points of Europe and
America in the middle' latitudes, is that between Valentia
Island in Munster, and St. John's Newfoundland, which is
2,050 English miles. For vessels going 200 miles a day. this is'
but 104 days' sailing; and as the course steered will be nearly
in a right line from one point to another, a steam vessel will
not be more than five or six days sailing from land in any part
of her course: Since nature has not established a half-way
house, or port of refuge, in the Atlantic, the circumstance is not
• immaterial as a resource against the dangers of shipwreck.
Supposing a difficulty should be
,found in carrying a sufficient
supply of fuel, it is fortunate that at the most eastern point of
Cape Breton, only 400 miles farther west than St. John's, there
are extensive mines of coal. When steam navigation is regu-
larly established between Britain and America, we have no
doubt that the intercourse between the two countries will re-
ceive a prodigious increase. At present it is almost entirely
confined to men engaged iu business; but when we consider
what the united states will be in a few years, and reflect that
the voyage out and home may be made in about a month, it is
evident that curiosity and pleasure will carry thousands across
the Atlantic, who are, at present deterred from undertaking the
voyage by the'uncertainty of its duration. A few years ago, a
voyage to Egypt for pleasurfewas as rare as one to Archangel.
Since steam packets'commenced plying to Alexandria, invalids
who formerly migrated to Hyerers or Nice, now repair in
crowds to Cairo or Thebes.
In discussing various projects connected with this subject
aheat two years ago, we couteuded that Bristol was the most
eligible starting post on the east side of the Atlantic. The pro-
posal of starting from Valentia Island, or any point on the
west coast. of Ireland, appears to us ridiculous. The saving
distance is but 340 miles, less than two days sale, or one-tenth
of the entire distance. And surely if a ship cats be constructed
capable of accomplishing nine parts of the vovege, the addi-
tional tenth will be no serious obstacle. Bristol, too, has this
advantage, and•when the Great Western Railroad is finished,
it will be within five or six hours' journey of London.
Spain and Portugal, though farther from North America,
have• an advantage over Britain for steam intercourse with it.
The most Western of the Azores Isles is almost exactly midway
between Lisbon and Nova Scotia; the distance on each side
being- abonti -1,400, miles. Nature has established a half-way
house for the Peninsular nations ; and when arrangements are
made to provide supplies of fuel there, the problem of a steam
voyage across the Atlantic may be resolved in their case with
comparative ease.
We shall wait for the issue of this adventure with 'great in-
terest. It will not probably fulfil all the sanguine expectations
of the projectors at first, but we have no doubt of its ultimate
success; and when it does succeed, we may fairly say that Ame-
rica, morally speaking, has been brought two times nearer to
Europe than it is at present, and four times nearer than it was
30 years ago, before the sailing packets were established.
We observe it stated, that the American House of Repre-
sentatives has voted RX) COO dollars (E 21,000) to the heirs of
Fulton, the real practical founder of steam navigation. If this
is a gift, and not the discharge of a debt it is highly honourable
to the Western republicans.

WOMAN.

In infancy, from wornan's breast,
'We draw the food by nature given;
She lulls our childish pangs to rest,
And cheers us as a beam from Heaven !
When woman s►niles, she has the power
To heal our grief,-and calm our fears;
Should sickness wound, should fortune lour,
She shares our sorrows, dries our tears.
And she can soothe the cares of age,
As rolls tinie's furrowing course along;
Can cheer us with the classic page,
Or charm us with the magic song.
When stretched upon the bed of death,
Departing nature struggling lies,
At that dread pause—when the next breath
May waft our spirit to the skies;
When the soul views the narrow verge,
Close on the confines of the grave,
And now it longs its flight to urge—
Nor wishes for an arm to save;
Who cheers that dreary scene of woe?
Who speaks of peace, and joy, and love ?
Who wipes the tear-drops as they flow?—
'Tis woman sent from Heaven above.
'Tis she receives our parting sigh,
"Fis she who hears our latest breath,
"Tis she who seals the closing
And whispers peace and hope in death!
And when the mournful scene is past,
'Tis woman weeps upon our bier;
Silent, vet long, her sorrows last,
Unseen she sheds affection's tear.
On earth she is the truest friend
That is to man in mercy given;
And when this fleeting life shall end,
She'll live for purer bliss in heaven.
O woman! woman ! thou wort made,
Like heaven's own pure and lovely light,
To cheer life's dark and desert shade,
And guide man's erring footsteps right.

Among the new publications called up by the circumstances
of the times, is one whichprofessm to advocate an Establish:
ment which has been assailed, gMvously, by ifs factious and
envious opponents, viz., The Church of England Gazette, pub-
Tuesdays and Fridays, at 162. Fleet-street. London.
This Joournal. identified as it is with the interests and rights of
the Church; will be found peculiarly useful, from its general
information, but, above all, for the talented and original nay in
nhich it performs the important duties'it has undertaken. To
Clergymen and Laymen of the Church, who untlerstand gnawd
argument, and cau appreciate learning and eloquence, in sup-
port of the national religion, it is invaluable.—Dorset Chronicle.

RHOGODENDRoN Ariaminum.—There is at present, iu fun
bloom, at Whalley's Nurseries, near the Cattle-market, a most
splendid specimen of the Rhododendron Arboreum 11 ybrida.
The plant is about fifteen feet high, and covered with about
fifty magnificent blooms. It is well worthy the inspection of
ali lovers of plants.
GLASGOW, PAISLEY, AND GREhNOCK RAILWAY.—By refer-
euce to our advertising columns, it will be seen that this Rail-
way is about be commenced in several places, and we under-
stand that it is the intention of the Directors to let their entire
line this summer, so as to have it completed, if possible, in the
autumn of 1810, about 21 years. Every thing is proceeding
favourably, and we are led to believe, that the works will be
finished fur the estimates. The results of the different borings
and shafts which have been sunk are highly satisfactory, and
no engineering difficulty has presented itself. By some judici-
ous alterations which have been effected, much heavy cutting
and two tunnels are avoided. The company are now making
their purchases of land and [lenses, to enable contractors who
undertake the works to commence their labour without delay.

PANORAMA.—This most interesting exhibition is on the eve
of closing. We have so often mentioned it in terms of praise,
that we can only repeat that we recommend all persona to pay
it a visit. They will receive their money's worth in informa-
tion and entertainment. .

WRECK OF THE &THABASKA.—Avery neatly executed chart
has just appeared of the West Hoyle Bank, on which the
above unfortunate vessel was wrecked on Tuesday last. From
the excitement that now prevails, uptin the subject, it will be
found useful in explanation of Capt. Deuhain's report. The
chart may be considered authentic, as it has been drawn from
that laid divin by Capt. Denham before. the Duck Trustees.
EXECUTION OF. WILLIAM RlLL—This man,. whom 'a jury
pronounced guilty of the murder of Betty Minsliall at Warring-
ton, was executed outside the walls at Kirkdale gaol on Satur-
day last.
KIRK °ALE EASTER SESSIONS.—These sessions commenced
on Thursday last before the Rev Jonathan Brooks, chairman,
and a numerous bench of magistrates. The calendar contained
the names of 49 prisoners. Ann. Johnson (aged 11) and Thomas
JohNson (aged 10) pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing 16s in,
silver, at quantity of bread and cheese, and various other articles,
the of Mr. Wm. .Seddon; a shopkeeper residing at La-
thorn, near Ormskirk. The prosecutor prayed the mercy of the
court. believing that the children were in a state of starvation
at the time they committed the offence. • The chairman after
seyerelyreprimanding the father of the children; sentenced them
to 14 days.imprisoninent. John Reyes (13) and Robert Ambrose
(18) were sentenced to 2 months imprisonment for stealing.
ducks from John Robinson, and Charles Pownall, at Halewood:
Peter Dumbell (16) and Henry Travis (16) were also sentenced
to 2 months imprisonment for stealiug poultry, the property of
Margaret Eddlesion, of Knowsley. -John Glover (26) IPilliam .
Riding (2'2) pleaded guilty to robbing the hen roosts of Thomas
Riding and' James Frodsham, at Cronton, and were sentenced
to 4 months imprisonment. George Dyson (20) pleaded guilty
to having; broken into the premises of Mr. Chas. Monks, a shop-
keeper, residing at Prescot, and with having stolen a quantity
of razors, knives, Sze. Several witnesses were called to character,
amongst whom.was the prisoner's late master, who stated that
the prisoner's character was unimpeachable whilst he was in his
employ ; but on reference to the black book" it appeared he
had preciously suffered an imprisonment of six weeks in Kirk-
dale. He was sentenced to 12 months imprisonment. Thos.
Brownbill, charged with the same offence, was acquitted. Hen.
Sixsmiths was seutenced to 4 months imprisonment, for stealing
4 horse cloths, the property of Richard Green. -of Ashton-in-
Mackerfield. James Wadsworth. osy Noah Hinton (17) •and
JamesWainunight.( 17) pleaded guilty to. having stolen two sheets,
the property of Miss Rigg, of Warrington, and were sentenced
to 3 months imprisonment. Margaret Doyle, (23) the wife;of a
labourer residing at Sutton, pleaded guilty to stealing a basket of
coals from the Runcorn Gap Railway Co., and was sentenced
to 2 months imprisonment.
MR. SAMUEL HoLsiE.—We understand that a fine portrait
of this gentleman, painted by-Mr. Illidge, has been presented
to him by several members of the Conservative Association as
a mark of their respect for his character. and of gratitude for
his exertions in the good cause. The portrait•may be seen at.

The beautiful domain of Bromley Hill, which during the
long period of forty years the late Lord Farnsborough was con-
tinually improving and adorning, has descended (by the will of
the late peer) to his nephew, Colonel Long, whose first lady
was daughter of the present Earl of Derby, and sister to Lord
Stanley.
OPENING OF TILE KING'S DOCK.—The King's Dock will,
we understand, be opened for the reception of shipping on the
first of May. The Dock has been deepened, and several other
improvements made of practical utility. The shipping which
frequent the upper docks will experience the benefit of this
arrangement.

A BODY FOUND.—On Thursday last, an inquest was held on.
the body of a man, name unknown, who was found drowned by
a number of fishermen near the North Bank. From an inspection
of the body, he did not appear to have been dead more than a
day or two. In his pockets were fOund a knife and a comb. He
was a good sized man and rather stout, and wore a brown jacket
and trowsers. This poor fellow, no doubt, is one of the crew of
the unhappy ship that foundered during the gale of Tuesday
outside of the port.
ZOOLOGICAL GIRDENS.—These beautiful gardens are now
becoming most delightful and pleasant. The smiling face of spring
is showing itself in all parts of this establishment. Active pre-
parations -are now making to carry on the'lorttscorning season
with great eclat and effect. A large pond is in coutse of eon-
structiom, for the purpose of erecting a " Mount Vesuvius" on'
the same splendid scale as that iu the Zoological Gardens in
Surrey M. Danson, the artist. is engaged to produce this
extraordinary exhibition. The Derby Hotel, at the entrance
of the gardens, is nearly completed, and will afford an accom-
modation which has been long required in that neighbourhood.
We feel confident, under the clever management of Mr. and
' Mrs. Leonard, it will be one of the first and most comfortable,
establishments out of Liverpool. The gardens in future, we are
glad to learn, are now open on the Sunday after service hours :
this forms an agreeable amusement for many hundreds who" are
unable .duriug the week to avail themselves oh so cheap and
pleasant a recreation.

Madame Filinowitz, the celebrated violinist, is now, in Liver-
pool, and intends to give a Concert in the course of a few days.
The musical talent which this lady possesses was first culti-
vated as an amusement, in the happy days of leisure and afflu-
ence, and is now most laudably employed as the tneans of sup-
potting her family, which has been expatriated and ruined in
the late attempt to establish-the independence of Poland, her na-
native country. Madame F. has had the honour of performing be-
fore her Majesty,and at the Philharmonic Concerts; and we are
assured, by gentlemen of this town, both amateurs and professors,
that to a highly refined taste she unites the most brilliant exe-
cution, with the still greater charm of that expression of feeling
and sentiment which so ethinently distinguishes the great Mas-
ter of the Art—Spolsr, of whom she was a favourite pupil.
The real lovers of Music will thus be afforded a treat of the
highest order, whilst sympathising in her misfortunes; and we
cannot doubt but that the most distinguished patronage and
support will reward her talents and her virtues.
