STEAMBOAT ExpLosIoNs.-F Facts for Re.
,Hcciion.--lt is often obs,inatcly asserted by
persons ignorant of the facts in the case, and
affecting a sort of pseudo.noisy patriotism,
that there are as many explosions and acct
dents among British steamships as among
ours, If the disproportion Of numbers is con-
sidcred. Now ouis, with the exception Of
about 20 on the coast and 100 on the great
lakes, are river boats, built Of light
construction and Of a great power of engine,
being specially designed for speed which
last object, indeed, is n paramount considera-
ton with all American acknowledgement
more so than the faithful workmanship,
solidity and durability OF the materials.
Our river steam craft, to say nothing Of
ferry boats, may be rcckoned in round nun.
bcrs at GOO. The steamers of Great Britain,
which are all sea steamers, 60 on the coast,
or across the sea to the continent, and arc,
therefore, subject to the toughest weather Of
the Irish and British channels, Bay Of Biscay
aud German Ocean. They may amount to
100. The proportion then in number is, as
Il Of our river boats, which always have the
smoo,hest Of water, to one of their boats. Ii
appears by a recent carefully made. out re-
port that of the number of British steamers
lost since the year 1917, amounting in all to
Mirtr one or TWO EXPLODED--the rest being
burnt or shipwrecked. Now say tro cxplo.
sons to every 100 boats in twenty years, and
we ask any man in his senses If this fact,
compared with the awful explosions among
oil our boats, say 500, does not present an
appalling result against us,-whc,hcr that
result is imputabe to machinery, or to ig
noraut rasl, engineers. The loss of life in
ours, has been lrigh,iul and the number OF
boats destroyed by explosion alone, to say
nothing of 100 burned. &C., have, in the last
four or FIVE years, only been, at the loves,
calculation, forty, which is ten year, or say
one year for every hundred boats. i. c. the
British boats (IO0) ought, in four years, t'
have hal four exploded, or forty in 20 years
Instead Of two only !! !--[.N. y. Ere. Star.
