Steam ON the Canal.

Gen. Cooke has lassly furnished an argument
to the Richmond Enqairer in favor Of the employ
msntof steam powerin the navigation of the James
River and Kanawha Canal.
The experiment has been made on tho Eric Ca
nal in New York, and Is said to be successful
We question. however, If it would answer with
rs. The Erie Canal 10 both deeper and wider
than our's-the State Of New York having recent
~ expended ten millions of dollars in it's enlarge

which has beea heretofore held fatal objection
70 the use Of steam on canals--we have too many
locks on the James River aud Kauswha Canal. to
admit Of the profitable employment Of steam pow
Or. A Aeet Of boats might be drawn by tug
but each boat would have to be locked through
separately, which would consume more time than
would be gained BY the use Of steam. In fact,
the experiment has already been tried, but we
believe it was not attended with that degree Of
success to Justify it, continuance. 1t may. per-
haps. answer very we'll upon the Erie Canal
where there 10 much less lockage than with u.s.
and where there 10 greater depth and width Of

A Warrior Queon Killed in India.

An Indian letter in the London Times announ-
ces the death of the Rance (Queen) of Jhansi, at
the hands Of the British before Gwalior. Though
but ~ years OF age she is seid to have resembled
the great Russian Catherine in her administrative
powers. and upon the death OF the late ruler of
Jhnnsi was called to the throne The writer adds:
Not lacking either spirit ambition. she accep-
ted the offer, and for time ruled well. But the
spark had touched the train---Bengal was in a
flame. and now or never her time to regain
that independence from the British yoke her an
cestor had lost. We know what her first steps
were-the blood of our fe low-creatures bears wit
ness to them; and though well meaning men have
endeavored to show, and | sincerely hope with
truth, that the atrocities attributed to her were
greatly overra,ed, they still admit, reluctantly,
that these poor creatures were only cut to pieces.
lienceforth, Of course, it was war TO the knife
She became the very soul of the movement III those
parts. Her forts were st rengthened, her men
gathered together in masses, stores laid in, and
every preparation made Tor siege fight For
herself she dressed in male attire, for greater
yenence in the saddle or the fight; was armed to
the teeth formed n small but devoted body guard
oil picked horseinen, Mt the he,ld of which size APP
peared to be almost ubiquitous. Was there flag
ging OF the necessary frrvor2- she the spot
to rally and to rouse. Was there the voice of dis
affection heard? She by her pr esence turned it to
shout Of joy. Was there dan ger on tho rampant
WALL and men hung back in fear? there, sword in
hand, she lod tho way, and bra we'd the fury of n
fiery storm Jhansi overwhelu ed. she found her
way with her body guard to t'alpee. Here the
same determined will was seen, here the same spir
it shown. Beaten, but not conq uered. she rapid
ly followed the clever move of Tantia Topee on
the Gwalior, previous to which, from the attack
on Jhansi to the fall Of Calpee SHE had fought
less than six actions against our torces command
cd by Sir Hugh Rose in person. As before at
Jhansi. she was always first at Gwalior and even
at the last fell sword in hand when struck by a
shell from Smiths battery

was severe No operation was performed, and
none could be, unless the patient rallied from the
first shock. lie fingered until about one o'clock
and expired Mr.. d. was only spectator of the
proceedings, and had nothing to do with firing tho
mortar--indeed such was the case with all but
one who were injured

pl'yed by Mr.. Palmer, and was engaged in firing

The lprsuadens.s Mossare.

II qAs Prseidents telegr.phic nssssags to the
Qaees has been the subjectof varied comment.
Some have pronounced it admirable, while others
have declared i, matapropos and lacking in good
taste. Our own views Of the snbjcct arc well
expressed by the New York Ecening Post that wo
copy and adopt its comments:
Mr.. Buchanan does not seem to succeed any
better in writing to foreign soycreigns than to his
American sovcreigns lie concludes his letter ~
the Queen with an inquiry. which compels her to
reply to him. or be guilty uf rndcncss; u position
in which he had no right To place any lady and
least Of all, who by force Of circumstanc
constrained 10 initiate the correspondence. But
this is not the browning sose Of the perfor nance.
lie says:
"In this view, will not all nations of Cl,risten-
dom spontaneously unite in the declaration that
it shall he for ever neutral, and that its rommu.
ncations shall DO held sacred in passing u, their
places Of destination. even in the midst of HOSTILE
ties!"
This 10 q tolerably cool proposal, cons dering
that the telegraph line terminates at both nds on
the Queens territory, and no other nation in the
world has anything whatever 10 do with it. IL
would bea very pretty thing for the Queen herself
10 propose. at proper time and place; but itcomes
from Buchanan with about much prop riety as
proposal. Immediately after the next Pres dential
election, to divide the Offices of the gene raj gov
eminent equally between Buchanicrs and Repub-
licnns.
II the Queen wore q wag--perhaps she is--she
might reply to her transatlantic interrogatt point
in this wise Certainly, we will make the line
neutral all the way from ireland to tho Gulf Of
Mexico and its communications shall be held
sacred in passing to their places Of des tnation,
"evsn in the midst Of hostities.''
What answer could the President max to this,
except that he had nothing to say about 40 inland
lines. thus practically admitting that he, had de-
liberately asked Of England favor which he
could not rcciprocate If he would, aud " hich eve
rybody knows he could not If he could?
And thcn to make such request II : such an
unreasonable time!
Should Mr.. Buchanan have occasion to write
again TO the Queen, we beg him to mar his COM
mLncation confidential
