We are familiar with the application OF the various

inquire into cotton power"
In the early history of the steam engine NAV be found
various experiments to gunpowder in place of steam

PACKET SHIr SIR ROBERT PEEL. - Yesterday,
being holiday, much larger assemblage than
is usual on such occasions, had collected to wit
ness the launch Of this vessel, which was to have
taken place at 3 o'clock. Owing to the low state
of the water they were doomed to be disappoint-
ed, as it will be seen by an advertisement in
another column, that her launch was necessarily
postponed until this afternoon.

Committee and also for the election of COM
mites for each ward, with a view to secure

spring.
From what we have learned, 1t would seem
that their late defeat in the State has not tended
much to unite the different sections of the party,
or to soften down the asperities that have grown
up between them. A fierce struggle is now being
carried on between the old hunkers and the
young democracy-each striving to obtain an
ascendancy for their respective parties in the
co.nmittees-how the struggle will end, we
not prepared to say.
1t comes off on Tuesday evening next, and If
we can place any reliance on the declarations Of
some of the parties, it may not be struggle of
