treats this subject very ably, and proves that there
is nation in the world which is more favored with
all the materials for the construction of powerful and
almost impregnable sea steamers, than the United
States. We agree with him, and should be pleased
to see the huge wooden boxes that now cumber our
Navy, and float about the ocean with crews number
ing in many instances five hundred men, whose con-
sumption of beef great their opportunity for
useful seamanship is tranmelled by the ponderous
proportions and dullness of the sailer they may be
on, superseded by swift and strong steamers. Those
vessels would be much more serviceable for the de-
fence of coast for the attack of enemy, as
was shown in the bombardment Of Vera Cruz, &c.
By way of showing the effectiveness Of the steam

exult in her strength to battle with their violent
efforts, and to overcome them in their own peculiar

strong chain forged by ancestors which Mr. Webster
has done than any other man living to rvet and
strengthen which binds together this great confederacy Of
States united repubcso solid it is strong 50
massive Such ornamental appendage on any other
than Mr. Webster would look burdensome and map
proprae but is quite In harmony with the strength and
greatness the defender Of the Constitution" Is also
fitting tribute from resident Of Caoma-a State whose
apple alton for Immediate admission into the Union Mr..
Webster has promised advocate, with all the weight Of
his powerful influence.
The chain of pure gold, Of value exceeding four hun
bred dollars 1t from the mines Its workmanship
reflects much credit Californian skill. II was manufac-
tured for the donor, Mr. George W. Eggleston, San

the extension OF slavery, but il not suspected that

sentiments have become known in time to prevent his
elevation to the chief magisracy OF the nation, as it
would be dangerous for man to occupy that station
whose principles would permit him to overthrow the

that any American citizen-and especially senator Of

higher law than the constitution" and that this insru
