THE LITERARY JOURNAL,

Ind Weekly Resisfer cfths Science f. Arts.
This is the title of weekly periodical, which
made its first appearance in Providence, on Satur-
day last. Aregular literary paper has long been in
Rhode Island, a desideratum but something has
until very lately always interfered, to hinder tho
consummation Of so desirable an object Papers,
protesting to wear literary character have been
attempted, but none have ever gained permanent
establishment. Want ofsupport has been the COM
plant on one side-while the other has refused to al
low sufficient merit in the papers to establish such
claim. We hope the talents of ALBERT G.
GREENE, Esa. the Editor, will ensure the Literary
Journal, better fate /; and judging from the num-
Der published, it will amply redeem the pledge Of
fered in the prospectus, which we recommend to
the psrusal of our readers-the fair portion in par
ticular. After that, they regard the dictates Ct
the will, subscription 70 the work will be tho first
act. The typographical department is neatly exc
cuted by Messrs. Knowles & Vose, the Publishers.
We wish them much success. The first number
may be seen at this Office, where subscriptions will
be received.

STEAM MBOATACCIDENTS.

Ifthe application of Steam to the navigation of our
western waters, shallcontnue to be attended with
the destruction Of life which the community have
been called to wnessfor the last two or three wears
it may wellbe questioned whether II may not DO
considered u national calamity, rather than bless
ing. Ifths sacrifice Of human life were unavoida-
ble-if it were connected with defects in the sppli-
cation of the power which could not be remedied -
then indeed its direct and total abandonment should
be enforced by public authority And this no doubt
would long since have been accomplished, if such
dangers had been considered nseparably connect
dwith, and an inherent defect in the principle by
which steamis rendered subservient to the purposes
Of navigation But this is not the fact. Experi-
ence has proved that steam boats, properly con-
structed, efficiently ofiicered, and supernended by
able and competent Engineers, are as safe as al
most any other mode Of conveyance. The New
York and Providence Steam Boat Line may be re-
ferred to as an example, This line has been running
upwards of ten years almost daily, and we do not
now recolect Of an accident having occurred during
the whole time, ofo very serious character.
The conclusion, therefore, is irresistible, that tho
lEequent occurrence OF accidents of this nature.
and the consequent destruction oflife can only bo
attributed to the incompetency and misconduct Of
the officers or engineers concerned in steam boat
navigation. Here lies the difficulty, and to thin, tho
remedy must be applied. Many and valuable lives
have already been lost but many more, we fear.
will still be sacrificed, unless greater pains be taken
in procuring The most faithful and competent officers.
and in entrsting the navagations of steam vessels to
nonebut sober, scientific, and sklfal engineers.

sh the article sent you last week, over the sig
nature Of" Justice" II was written when was
much excited, and contained remarks that would
not have been made when was little more ra-
tional ] must acknowledge to you, sir, that when
saw you had refusedto comply with my wish,
my mind was Immediately made up to call and stop
my paper! But since an opportunity has been
allowed me to reason with myself, alone, am sat
isfed that the course.yOu have adopted respecting
this unhappy affair, is entirely proper and is, in
fact the only eiectua method oflaying the excite
ment. Tyou would exercise your judgment, in all
cases, as in this, you would at once put a stop to
controversy in your paper, on subjects, which
cannot in the end, be, but injurious to the happi-
ness of society Yours, sc. JUsTIcE.

ARRIVAL OF THE PRESIDENT

Ahhl AL Or II L ltiSOiDA-> -
The arrangements announced yester-
day for the reception Of the President OF
the u. States and his suite were duly car
ried into effect. At half past IL, yester-

There nsverwas term, fated to such universal
misapplication az " common sense" When per
son sees, with his own cyes--hears, with is own
ears--fssls, with his own hands, and tastes with
his own palate, he possesses what should be COM
mon sense" But, where is the man who judges
from the conviction of his own ,senses alone -
Who, discarding the ,prejadices of others, views
things as they really cxAt' DE so many give this
evidence Of the faculty, that should be called com
Imon' Let any matter, either trivial or important
.becomethe ject Of discussion, and who in his
heart cansay, that'he meets It under the exclusive
influence Of" common scnse'" Were people, in
general, governed by the dictates Of common sense,
There would certainly, beiess diversity ofopinion |;
we should not see much cutting and shufling and
such contrariety Of prcjesssd judgment, on plain
questions, to which ho nest natural sense could find
but one side Sut the truth is, real " common
sense" in the true acceptation Of the term, is a
rare commodity. Real common sense prompts
family. Hteachcs them to alleviate the miseries
Of their fellow beings; and prefer the consciousness
of doing good to any little personal advantage that
can be derived from the practice ofcunnng and du-
.pcity. But alas the few who in this refined age
act on the principles Of old fashioned common sense,
are held up to the world as madnen or fooh. To
be good and wise, is no longer to be great in the
exclusive sense success must be joined. And
success by any mode or measures whatever is now,
the test Of common sense 1t is, therefore, no
wonder that the man who decides frankly and acts
honestly, is accounted to lack in common sense -
or that he, who deyses plots schemes, and hrives,
is without further Investigation, pronounced sensi-
'ble and dscreet-and It may be also added good
II is now an inlable proof Of sense to report eau
tiously, and hold on to all reservations that may en-
banass an adversary-to undermine and under
mine until further progress is impossible, and then
have clear passage for retreat. In shor, the art Of
accommodating individual advantages without great
ly attending to the moral tendency of the ways and
means employed, is considered decided mark of
common sense--and the man whose success in this
line is most apparent, finds not much difficulty in
spproprating all the honors and distinctions due to
superior merit
