Steamer Huaitrcss.

THyFIE Directors Of the Steamer Huntress respect
~ fully request you through the medium fyour
paper to assure the public, that no racing will be
allowed on the part Of their Boat in any way en-
iangsring the safety of passengers. They are a
ware that as tho New York opposition Boat named
the augusta leaves here and Boston simultaneously
with the Huntrcss, some apprehensons may natur-
ally be excited that dangerous racing will occur.
In order avoid all cause and even the appearance
of danger from that circumstance, the Directors of
the Hunress proposed to Capt. Vande rbilt, the ow-
nerof the Augusta arrangements for running their
respective Boats on different days or hours. Both
propositions peremptoriiy rejected by him,
with arhintimatlon that whatever changes might be
made,by us would be followed by corresponding
changes on bis part If blame rests anywhere in
this respect the public will judge to whom il Justly
attaches. We WOULD take this opportunity to re-
mark that we have no hesitation 10 recommending
the Huntress superior in all important respects to
any Boat ever on the Kennehec waters. She is new,
very strong, uncommonly stiff, a first rate sea boat,
has superior Accommodations and is moreover, fast
enough without raising on unsafe or an unusual
pfess of steam.s 1t5 81 ~

The rod Of the oppressor had been broken
that the agitating arm Of government, which
had shaken our commercial fabric and dis
turbed the foundations Of social order, was
checked and would be stayed that the arro-
CANT men who had presumed to disobey the
popular will and suffrage, would be left to
learn in adversely, that lesson Of obedience,
which they had forgotten in prosperity. Then
il was, and il will be now, that our great State
and city, released from the incubus OF NAL
administration, and foreign and factious
government, will resume its gigantic strides to
that high destiny Of improvement and pros
perity for which nature designed her. Then
It was, and it will be now, that education,
under the fostering care OF enlightened and
sympathizing minds, will dispel the darkness
of ignorance and prejudice Danish atheism,
and its attendant radicalism, improve the rea-
son and instruct our citizens to obe,. its die
tates. Then it was, and il has been now, that
few citizens Of the unchanged democratic
republican party, valuing their consistency
and integrity above all price, refused to
yeer from their onward course, gave their
generous and disin.erested aid to the cause
Of liberty and truth, and turned the scale
Of victory between the two great contending
parties. Then, as now, they held the balance

veys is the reverse of Mr.. Van Buren's SEN
timent, it teaches the leeches of the treasury,
that government is made for the people, and
not for the office holders, and that the Office
holders "look to government too much" and
that those of our own country are specially
prone to do So" 1t teaches Mr.. Van Buren,,
that though the people are long suffering,
there is point of oppression and outrage at
which +" forbearance ceases TO be a virtue"
and that there is an interrupted virtue and
uncrushed energy in the land, willing to purify
and able to save. 1t teaches that ungrateful
and perfdious man, who used body Of most
able and devoted friends to enable him to
mount the political summit, and then, "kicked
them down." and took the agrarian Loco-focos
to his confidence, that though they loved
Cesar much, they loved Rome more ~

A valued friend and correspondent calls
our attention to an article copied into this
paper, few days since, from the Frederick
Times, headed "The next Presidency" in
which il was intimated that the editor of that
journal might support "LIrTLE VAS," and
asks il, by publishing it, we concurred in its
views! May We not copy articles for other
purposes besides concurrence But our
friend has only to turn TO the first page of this
paper, to the prospectus which has stood there
several months, to learn what our views have
been since the fourth Of july last.
The following paragraph will refresh his
recollection
The support of Republican principles, as deliae-
ated By the father of the Constitution icouid be ncon-
sistcnt with the support IN ANY CONTINGENCY of man
Those ch0te Of measures has been but continual
riolation of erery sound tenet Of Repblieanism and
one continued crusade against popular rights and
tional interests"
In this faith we are immovable

The Globe and its executive patron see clear

the view, that the great object of this brave
band Of patriots, first and last, constant and pa
ramount, was "to save their country"-'.t to
rescue the republic" from the INSCRIPTIONS,

This geographical problem, which sill remains
unsolyed, was the wonder Of early times; and as
long ago as the time Of Cambyses an expedition was
fitted out 10 explore III but none returned to tell the
result Of their inyes igalions. Alexander of Mace
don, who halted al no obstacle which opposed his
ambitious schemes fitted out, in his day, Two expe-
ditions for this same object but failed in both al
temps 10 explore the sources Of this enigmaiical
stream. Records Of no less than eighteen expedi-
lions are found In history, which were fitted out by
different crowned heads ofEurope but none Of which
ever attained the desired end, although new geogra-
phica information has been attained, and much has
been added to our stores of knowledge by these re-
peated investigations The last of these attempt
which have been made, were under the patronage q
The Royal Society, originally under Sir JOSEPH
Banks which numbers among its adventures Nun
go Park, Burckhardi, Belzoni, and several Other
distinguished names. And still more lately, the two
young Landers 10 whom at one lime il seemed like
ly thai the palm Of victory 10 be given but When
after their eventfu and dangerous journey, they
thought they had found the object Of their search,
they had the disappointment 10 learn their error and
leave the mystery unsolved.- Nottingham.
