STEAMBOAT TRAVEL ON THE HuDsoN RIvER-The
Now York Evening Post, referring to the recent ex-
-Iosion of the boiler of the steamboat Reindeer.
I'VE all know that for years past the leading OBJ
;et of the captains and owners of steamboats, the
tndson has been to establish reputation for speed
When they do not race against each other they race
acainst the railroad cars, and when there happens
t1 be no train leaving at the hour, they race
AGAINST time. In every event they are determined
70 maintain their character fast boats and in
der to do this they drive their engines with all the
force that can be applied. The security of passen
gers and property is hardly consideration in CON-
garrison with the attanments of rapidity.
This, say, is the general system of manage
ment IN the river, and therefore any captain 9th
er officer who willingly adopts the practices of that
system is partly accountable for the dreadful losses
to which it leads. He knows that under the sys-
tenn catastrophes are inevitable, and knowing this,
makes himself party to all their terrible results.
But the Reindeer are told, more than any other
vessel particular exponent of this system. She
was built expressly as fast and not safe boat
her ambition, which means the ambition of her man,
ayers from the outset Of her career has been to be-
come the crack boat of tie river. She has labor
ell TO distance every competitor; her trials of speed
with the Henry Clay, the Aida and other stea
have been Wanted and now that her machinery. I'M
der this dashing, reckless method, has given way
with disastrous result. her officers cannot, the
plea of a defect in the engine, screen themselves
