SMITHLAND, June 6, 1856


DEAR SIR: received your letter day OF
two ago, and in answer to your interrogatories
concerning my knowledge Of "Reeder's Safety
Guard" l will answer by informing you that
l was second engineer on the steamer VIM.
Garvin, and that your Guard was attached to
one of the boilers of the Garvin.
On one occasion we had race with the
steamer Cincinnati on her trip from St. Louis
to Louisville, and had it not been for your
Guard we could have passed the Cincinnati
without any trouble. Your Guard was set at
ten pounds less than Government standard,
the consequence of which was, that we could
not get as much steam as the law allowed us
Whenever steam got to the weight in your
Guard it commenced dampening down the
fires, We we're compelled to cease firing up, or
else our fires would have been entirely extin-
guished
have no hesitancy in saying to you, that
fully appreciate the value of your Guard,
and that look upon it as the only safe check
upon steam. With the Float Attachment, /
consider it a safeguard against low water,
which is the main cause Of explosions and col
lapsing of Aues.
It is my firm conviction that if every steam
boat had your Guard attached to their boil
ers, We should hear no moro Of explosions and
loss of life by steamboat boilers bursting.
Wishing you all the success your Guard me-
rits, L am truly yours, &c,
A. j. CoLEHAN.

The N. Y. Herald, in speaking Of the pas
sage of ths Senate bill in relation to Kan
sas, says that there is one little difficulty in
the Senate bill touching the foreign vote.
Heretofore, in the Territories, alien free
white male Squa,ters over twcnty-one years
of age have been given the privilege of the
elective franchise upon the faith of a decla-
ration of intention 10 become citizens OF the
United States. This is the law OF the orig
inal Kansas Nebraska act, and is stu IN
force. This new bill of the Senate propos-
es to limit the right of voting in kansas 70
actual ci,iza ms of the United States; but -
this amendment is indispensable to secure
the Know Nothing vote of the House, the
democracy must adhere TO it or forieit she
bill. On the other hand there is anger
that this compromise between the Fillmore
Know No,hings and Democrats, If consum-
mated, may ali enate from Mr.. Buchanan all
the Free State democratic Germanic vote
of the Northwest, and affect somewhat the
primitive Dutch districts of Pennsylvania, to
say nothing Of our anti.know Nothing
Irish fellow-citizens.
The Buchanites are counting the Know
Nothings in all directions, hence it is tina,
Herbert. the murderer of Heating, who, we
learn from various sources. is = Know
Nothing, aud who, the Democrat ssys,i s to
be the Know Nothing candidate for Presi-
dental Elector in California, is not expel-
led fron Congress. This 10 the whole Sc
cret con attained in nut she'll" and disguise
it as they may the truth is no lessthe same'
nor more the palatable.
The following ~effusion is from an old and
staunch Democrat Of our county, n
against whom politically we have always
been arrayed, and therefore the more re-
joice to End him on the side of Freedom
and Fremont.
