The centrifugal force upon a wheel
driven at the rate Of GO feet per second
is equal to pressure of ll00 lbs. to
the square inch, and il is reekoned un-
safe to work higher unless with unusu-
al precaution. A car running at the
speed Of 60 miles an hour, is at the rate
of SO feet per second, and should never
be adopted unless the cars have been
thoroughly examined and fully proved
adequate to the pressure. There is 1t
tie economy in quick travelling, as the
expenditures, wear and tear ot matc-
rails, &C., &C., are SO great, that high
charges have to be made 50 as to yleid
a compensation. A company whose
cars travel at thirty miles an hour cost
I2a cents mile, but if the speed be
raised to 40 or As miles the cost would
be 21a cents. 1t would thus be more
equitable to charge BY the speed than
by the class Of the cars.

by GEORGE CABoT, Of Massachusetts, in Novem-
Der. and it was passed by the Senate on the 18th
of January, unanimously, fourteen members from
free and thirteen from slave States voting for it.
The House committee, Theodore Sedgwick and
Sheerjashub Bourne, of Massachusetts, and Alex

body, by which it was passed, on the 5th of Feb
ruary, without discussion. Eight free States were
represented by 81 votes, six slave States by "a
votes free State majority Z. The bill received AZ
