SPLENDID STEAMERS FOR LAKE


9 Two new steamers are now building at Buffalo,
to run fram Sandusky to Buffalo in connection with
the Cincinnati, Dayton and Lake Erie railways.
They are to be ready for business in April, The
editor of the Buffalo Express, having carefully ex
omined these boats, says of them: 80
"That the public may be in possession of the
facts we have thoroughly examined these steamers,
now building at the yard of Messrs. F. F. & B. B.
Jones, and find them, in many particulars, diff
ferent from any steamboats, heretofore built for the
lakes, and in our opinion superior to anything yet
ahoat upon the western waters All the main
keelsons, for Strengthening and Stittenng thsm are
much larger and heavier than usual and double
bolted throughout. They are seven in number,
running the length Of the boat, fore and aft. The
sides and frames are Traced together with diagonal
iron braces, similar TO those used in Collins steam
ems 1.-THE Atlantic, which bind the hull of each
boat together with almost solid network OF iron,
and must add immensely to their strength and
| safety.
sThe holds of these boats are to be divided into
four compartments, by water-tght bulk-heads, SC
as to render their sinking almost an imPoSSibility
in case OF collision. No pains will be spared, by
the enterprisng proprietors, in rendering these
boats as strong as wood and iron can make them.
''They are 10 be propelled by the largest and most
powerful steamboat engines in the world, one OF
which was built by the celebrated Allaire Works,
in New York, and the other by MeSSrs. j. p. Nor
ris & Co., of Philadelphia. Their dimensions are
as follpw:-DiameteI of cylinder, 80 inches, with
10 feet stroke; beams Is feet wide by "a feet long
The bed plates, condensers, air-pumps, openings,
&C.. are all large in proportion, enabling the en-
gnes to work with more power than the size of the
| cylinder would indicate. The boilers, of which
there are to be three in each boat, Ii feet in
diameter by 80 feet long, built at the manufactures
of Messrs. Sidney Shepard d John Newman, OF this
city.
"The boats, when complete, will be $50 feet long,
4O3 feet beam and IA feet depth of hold, making
them each about 1900 tons, Custom House measu-
rement. These boats are built under the supeTin-
tendence Of Capt. Il. Hazard and JohnJ. HOLSTER,
Esq, who give every assurance that thew are to be
built in the best, safest and strongest possible man
ner. Their experience aud enterprise afford asuf
fcient guaranty that they viii be all that the ser.
vice can require of them; and so far as speed and
safety are concerned, they must command the con-
f1dence of the travelling public.
"When those magnificent steamers are little
further advanced toward completion, we shall take
pleasure in referring to them again, and so on until
they aStonish the world by their magniicence,
beauty and speed"

The only care of the Government seems TO beto

coming the spouse of freeman, is entitled to all
the rights and privileges of free woman. ASlong
as she keeps with her husband, the bonds of mat
rimony are the only bonds TO which she is subject
The same with male convict; Bymarrying alfree
woman, he becomes, by virtue of his office as
thusband' as free as the Governor himself as long
as he conducts himself to the satisfaction of his
bette. half The consequence of this clever stroke
of policy IS that marriages of this description are
continually coming off with wonderful rapidity.
Any old man can get, in this accommodating coun-
try, as young lady for wife as he pleases; that
is, if he is not Us to her past char
acter, which is never in Van Dienan's Land, by
the bye, taken into consideration. He has many
hundreds to choose from, not one Of whom will
spurn his offer. And on the other side, any Aus
tralian lady verging on fifty, can be supplied, ii
she require it, with as youthful husband as her
heart can desire. There are before her men of ev-
cry age and condition to select partner from
PARSONS doctors, clerks, tradesmen. and laborers;
few will hesitate moment when she breaches the
subject. The vast majority, to get out of Govern
ment, would marry the Witch of Endor herself, II
that would accomplish it."

AT The river in front OF the city has risen WIN
unparalleled rapidity, with no prpSpeots OF any
abatement at late hour last night During the
nreyious "a hours, the river has risen fully ten
feet and during the dav yesterday 1t was rising az
the rate of 4 inches per hour, which Is the most
rapid rise ever known at this point, Th4 weather
was clear and cold yesterday, and freezing quite
hand last night
The entite wharf and Third street bridge are
overlooked, and all the houses along Water street
were, withone or two exceptions inundated las
night, and the river had then risen to within 10
inches of the high water of last sring.
A vast amount OF damage was done in ah dl-
rections. The steamer Delta, from New Orleans,
discharged so hogsheads of sugar on the upper
wharf Late on Monday night, but before daylight
the river had risen to the sugar, and betOFe 1t could
be removed was greatly damaged.
The cargo of the r. NJ. Patton, consisting OF
cotton and pea nuts, was with the greatest dicUl-
ty saved from floating off. The crew of the Eclipse
was kept at work all night in rolling her freight
back from the enoEoaching waters,
A coal boat belonging to Eli Leizure, with II.
600 bushels Of coal, was sunk in the bend at JET
iersonvile and another boat was torn from Its
moorings, andswept over the falls.

navigation could not web occur without including
this investment of our City Fore Fathers.
The dams of the Whitewater river that make
the slackwater which feed the canal, are washed
away, and the town of Harrison is inundated; the
locks below Brookville are washed out; the bridge
at Brookville gone, land score of minor disasters
occurred along the Indiana line, so as to make us
conclude that this canal, this time, is pretty well
used up. The mills at Lawrenceburgh, like those
of our city depending upon water power, ore moi

ment of the acqueduct over Mill Creek, three
miles this Sidu of Lockland was shattered by the
flood on Friday; the wood work let down and tie
water pouring ont furiously, washed away the bot
tom of the canal down to the level Of the Creek.
Every effort will be made to repair the same by
this day week. The heavy rains of to-day SER
ously impeded the work there, as also on all the
damaged lines of navigation. -. ~
we learn that Judge Jewett, who left Columbus
ON Friday to reach Newark by the way of Shelby,
had to return to Columbus, the tack Mt many pla-
ces, and bridges on the Newark Road, having been
washed away by the flood. The Judge was to
