THE PEACE-MAkER

1t seems that Captain Stookton's big gun was last
week ehrlstened The peace maker" correspon-
dent of the Boston Post, who recently paid ysi, 10
the Princeton, off New York present al the trial
Of the gun He says, that instead Of being placed
on the ground in some remote corner is usual in
proving guns Of not nethird of her caibre such was
Socktons confidence in this wrought iron piece that
the proving actually performed on board small
vessel Of some twenty feet beam and seventy feet in
length This appears the more astonishing when
consider that the charge was fifty pounds Of pow
der charge that might well be required or the ca
pacious nav Of gun fifteen feet long with bore
Of twelve inches, carrying ball Of two hundred and
thirteen pounds weight and itself weighing ten tons
The gun was placed on slide made Of strong timber
in which groove wa. made TO receive about one
half Of the vast body, the slide beng secured TO the
vessel by several strong hawsers passing round the
same and under the vessels bottom to prevent the
terrible recoil which would otherwise open the YES
sel-the gun being placed athwart-shps The gun
was fired Oft by means Cf a slow match that burned
about hall minute, during which the boats con-
tanning the officers and crew roved away some two
three hundred yards from the vessel TO listen TO
the explosion, and witness the effects Of it at safe
distance. The recoil Of the gun, caused by the ex.
ploson Of this immense charge Of powder, gave the
vessel deep lurch to the opposite side, and the gun
being placed nearly level, the huge two hundred and
thirteen pound ball recochet,d along the surface OF
the TO very great distance, touching the water
at twelve different pc nts, at each sending up per-
pendicular column Of white spray, exhibiting the ap-
pearance of succession Of water spous, half dozen
of which were visible at the same moment of time -
Notwithstanding the confidence entertained that the
gun would stand the proof we readily imagine
that the moment of intense excitement. and
that no little pleasure manifested by both officers
and men TO find the big gun without speck or flaw,
and bright and smiling if it were not the most
formidable engine Of death and destruction on The face
of the globe"

A deputation from the Managers of the New York
Institution for the Blind, accompanied by number
Of the pupils under their care have arrived in this
city, with the view of presenting TO Congress and our
citizens practical evidence of the capacity of the
Blind, under the influence of proper means, for in
struction in all the useful branches of education, and
in various mechanical employments; and to urge
upon the several States, through their Representa-
tves the benefits resulting from legislative provision
in their behalf.
1t appear. that New York, Massachusetts, Penn
sylvania, and Ohio, have respectively made some ap.
preparation for the support and education their in
digent Blind but out OF an aggregate of thou
sand in the United States thus afflicted, only very
small portion deIye any benefit from these provisions
while the great majority owing TO a want Of interest
in their welfare and doubts as to their capability of
Improvement are left without Instruction often
without support
The New York Institution for the Blind is not
res ricted in lis sphere of usefulness 10 its own
State. Ample arrangements are made for the re-
cepton OF pupils from every quarter Of the Union and
II IS the desire OF the Managers during this visit to

tuition, as thus far developed TO induce the co ope-

The nomination Of the first named gentleman

The public mind, if we may Judge from various
indications, /, becoming more and more impa-
tent al the delay OF action on the part Of the

Hence, il is asked, why delay action As TO
Mr. Spencer, ii is notorious that he has
been confirmed by the Senate as Secretary
of War, and afterwards as Secretary Of the
Treasury. He is. therefore, ii must be suppos
ed, thoroughly known. Why, then, $50 great
delay? The Supreme Court is in session, and
important cases are 10 come before ii. The
public cannot but be inquisitve upon this
subject. If the Senate, ii is said, would
act up 10 its constitutional duty, ii would
at once determine the fate of these nomi-
nations. The country Is IN singular condi-
ton. Parties are peculiarly s. All eyes are
turned TO the Senate, and 10 these Secretaries
thus suspended Action is demanded by The
public standardization of some sort-and we
hope it will take place speedily.
