his duty. lie was on the boiler deck when
the explosion occurred; was materially in.
jured by that event, and must have been
ignorant os the mismanagement, if any
there was.
From the engineer alone could the true
explanation be afforded; and, If indeed it
was really attributable to negligence, it
can scarcely be supposed he will lay the
blame on himself If I might venture a
suggestion in relation thereto, would as
sign the following causes: That the water
in the starboard boilers had become low in
consequence ofthat side Of the boat resting
upon the ground during our stay at Mem.
phs; that the fires were kept up some time
before we showed off, that the head which
burst had been cracked for a considerable
time, that the boiler was extremely heated,
and the water, thrown in when the boat
was again in motion, was at once convert
ed into steam, and the flues, not being suf-
fciently large to carry it off as quick as il
was generated, nor the boiler head of a
strength capable of resisting its action, the
explosion was a natural result.
assume this proposition to be correct,t
that, in every case where boiler burstsas
is fair to infer that it proceeded from neg.
lect, until the contrary shovld be proved.

tending himself with these, their own

That Jesus did not mean to impose him
self on mankind as the son Of God, physic-
aIlv speaking, | have been convinced by the
writ;ngs of men more learned than my.
self in that lore. But that he might con-
sc;entiously believe himself inspired from
above is very possible. The whole reiig.
;c., or tho Ia.-. ;.."I.atod on him from his
infancy, was founded in the belief Of divine
inspiration. The fumes of the most dsor
dered imaginatiOns were recorded on their
religious code as special communications
Of the Deity; and as it could not but happen
that in the course Of ages events would
now and then turn up to which some Of
these vague rhapsodies might be accommo-
dated by the cid Of allegories, figures,
types and other tricks upon words-they
have not only preserved their credit with
the Jews of all subsequent times, but are
the foundations of much of those who have
schismatized from them. Elevated by the
enthusiasm ofa warm and pure heart; con.
scious of the high strains Of an eloquence
which had not been taught him, he might
readily mistake the coruscations ofan high
er order. This belief carried, therefore,
no more personal imputation than the be.
lief of Socrates that himself was under the
care and admonitions Of a guardian Demon.
And how many Of our wsest men still be-
lieve in the reality Of these inspirations,
while perfectly sane on all other subjects"

After the presentation of numerous pc
ttions, the resolution of mr.. Nc Duffie, for
the reduction, at a certain period Of the

ed, and mr.. Coulter concluded his remarks

up in the discussion of the bill for the con.
struction of road from Buffalo to New

for discussion, when Mr.. Wayne, of Geor.
gia, occupied the residue of the hour, in
observations against the resolution. Mr.
A. Smyth then obtained the floor, and

resolved itselfinto Committee ofthe Whole

by way Of Washington, to New Orleans :;

argued at great length in favor of the ex-
tension Of the road from Buffalo to the
head Of Lake Champlain, in Vermont, and
thence to Boston. in Mass as proposed by
the amendment formerly submitted by him.
Mr. Crockett objected entirely to the pro.
ject, which he, contended would, ifit were
attempted to be carried into effect, involve
the country in an endless expense. 1t re.
minded him (mr. C.. said ofa man in Ohio
who was proceeding TO his home, with a
bag on his back, and who being met by a
neighbor, was asked, what he was carry.

the inquirer, doing so, was bit by raccoon;
and on complaining and asking again what
it was, was answered that it was bite !!
Such he conceived this bill to be, for five

tions ofthis road, we should have no means
or opportunity Of stopping in our career.
IT. however, the road should be made, it
ought to 60 by way of Memphis. Mr..
Chiffon opposed the bill. He objected to
the measure, although friendly TO the system
Of Internal Improvement. lie objected to
it from his own personal knowledge of the
obstacles which would be met with from
swamps and water courses in the construc.
ton Of the road. II would not only cos,
the nation a, least fifty millions Of dollars,
but. when made at that expense, the road
could never be made available for national
objects or purposes Of any nature whatso.
ever. A prolonged discussion took place.
