THE sTEAn-norLER BILE.

There is always danger that Objectionable
measures may be pushed through the Legislature
under misapprehension Of their real character,
and of the public exigencies which they are pro-
fessedly designed to meet. For this reason We
wish to call attention to the Steam-BOler which
has recently been reported to the Assembly.
In the face of plain Constitutional provision
which forbids the appointment Of public officers
in this way, it names William BoardmsD George
Birkbeck, and Thomas II. Farron, Board of
Commissioners, who are to hold Office for FIVE
years, and WHO shall appoint three or more
inspectors Of steam engines, boilers, &c. As a
recOmpense for their arduOus labOrs, each Of the
Commissioner is TO receive an annual salary Of
l,5OO, with Unlimited power to fix the com.
pensstiOn Of all persons employed by them. The
inspectors are to examine ali boilers ond engines
at least once year, but there is nothing in the
bill to prevent them from making such examination
once week, if they choose TO do 20, in the ex.
ercise Of their arbitrary power. The cost Of
inspection is 10 be $40 for boilers Of ten-hOrse
power and upward, and S. for boilers under
ten-horse power The Commissioners are to issue
licenses to competent engineers at 81 each, and
lines are imposed on those who shall presume to
act without such licenses, as well as on those
who may employ them.
The public safety requires no such law as this
1T Is so loose in it's provisions that it may be
made an instrument in the hands of unprincipled
inspectors for leyying black mail on persons en-
gagged In manufacturing business, instead of q
ine8sure Tor the public good. The inspections
may be made at any time. without notice, and
WITHOUT regard TO the convenience or business in.

THE REAL GRIEVANCES OF SLAVE
HOI,nRRa.

I. The prospective development of Republi-
can party among the non-slaveholding whites OF
the South, who form nineteen-twentieths of the
white population. This is the great grievance.
ii. The loss of a sixty years monopoly OF the
Government, its military and civil ofRces-n loss
that Leaves much idle gentilty at the South
without resource.
H. The loss of prestige and power by the old
political parties, and their Inundated leaders,
terrible grievance both at the South and North.
". The humiliation Of that insOlent arrogance
which is the legitimate fruit of slaveholding This
ia the second great grievance.
V. Blind and growing jealousy of the prosperity
of the North.
No botchiDg compromises will remove these,
the true grievances. The complete triumph or
the complete overthrow Of Republican principles
is the only remedy. The latter is impossible,
