Steam Jef'oten England and Phiiadcl-
phio.-We learn from a report published
in the United States Gazette, that a meet
ing was lately held in that city, Nicholas
BiddIe in the chair, at which a committee
of ten was appointed, to prepare plans of
association, and report at an adjourned
meeting, in relation to the formation of u
company in Philadelphia to Cooperate with
English capitalists, in establishing a steam
line of packets between PhiIndel shia aud
Great Britain.

Important Huention.-It is stated that
Mr.. Thomas Blanchard, well known rs on
eminent successful and ingenious machin-
Ist, has produced the model of boiler
which CdnnOt explode. Ii is so contriyed
that when the water is reduced below Civ
en- quantity, the door through which fuel is
supplied closes, and canuo, he opened un-
,ll the complement of water is made up
There is, therefore, no possibility of an ex-
ploslon arising from deficiency of water
even if the engineer is ever SO much dispos-
ed for it.
Mr.. Blanchard is the inventor of several
important machines, of practical utility.
Among them is a machine for turning ir-
regular forms, of the invention of which the
advertiser tells the following anecdote;
Mr. Blanchard had made some improve
ment IN constructing the metallic part of
fire arms, which dispense! with portion
oil the labor before required, whereby seye-
raj workmen were thrown out of employ.
The gun-stock manufacturers observed,
" Think fortune none Of your inventions
can deprive us Of our employment" "You
are not so certain of that, said Mr.. J." and
and in few weeks he produced bis famous
lathe, which readily gave an exact fac-sim-
lle OF any pattern.

Maple SugT.-In Acworth, an incon-

to import much sugar from other places.

"Wednesday morning, before daylight, he
was seen by one of the walters at Whit

with large trunk, which he had purloiued
from n sentleman's room. This led to his
arrest, and on examining his room at his
lodgings, large collection of plumber was
discovered consisting of several trunks,
csrpet-bags, clothing, umbrellas, canes, and
" many other articles too numerous to men
ton" He has no doubt committed all the

this season; as different articles have been
found and recognised by oil who have suf-
fered. The trunk advertised in our paper

boarding house, was found in his room, and
also some of the articles stolen fiom Mr..

We have lately received from the author
an ora,ion delivered on the Alb of July be-
fore the Democrats of Plymouth county
Mass, by Benz. + hallett, Esq, editor OF
the Boston Advocate. We have read this
production with great satisfaction and wish
that our limits would admit Of our laying
it, entire, before the readers Of the Republ-
can.
Its great length forbids his, and ne know
not how to make extracts which can give
anything like a faint idea Of the merits of
the whole. Suffice i, for the present to
say, that it is none Of your every day effu-
slons, but rare and powerful expose of the
principles and practices of the two great
parties Of the Union, who are now marshall
ing their forces for the great political con
tdst Of 1910. Mr.. Hallett has completely
uncovered the cloven foot of the federal
wings, aud we do not see how any man, or
set of men, claiming to be republicans, can
give their support TO such principles as are
now the ayowed rules of conduct of the
great leaders of the Wings. To federalists
we have nothing to say. They act consist
emily; but to republicans, We would recon-
mend perusa Of the Grafton.

! The men were neither of them actually
taken into custody by our police officers.
and by them dragged on board the Dido.
but they surrendered and went on hoard vol
unfairly, IN order to prevent the exercise Of
force which they could not resist. 1t will
be noticed that the Vice Consul saws ex-
pIlcltly that they (the abducted Frenchmen)
were told, not that our police officers would
arrest and take them before an American
magistrate, but that " the agents of the DO
lice were ready with warrant To arrest
them, and conduct them on board the frie
ate D,do, and that they could no, escape"
Ihe Vice does not attempt TO conceal tho
TACT that the men were threatened with force
TO compel them TO submit to illegal treat
ment, but boldly avows the fact: n. also
the fact that through fear Of the exercise Of
that force--to what degree of violence they
could not conjecturc-the men submitted
to the abduction on board the Dido.
