Bridging Detroit Rivera Ferry Boat
10 transport Il Train of Cars.
From The Detroit Free Press, 26th-


The Great Western Railway have under cou-
struction fcrry-boat Of sufficient dimensions
to transport d trim Of cars. This lerry-boat
Is one OF the greatest achievements OF modern
enterprise, md Is in itself q wonder Nothing
like 1t has ever been seen on the Western
waters. It will be the = Great Eastern" Of
the lakes. 1t is already well under why, at
Jenkins ship-yard, near Windsor, and brief
description may not be unintercsting. The
vessel Is being built entirely Of wrought iron,
and the weight Of the hull alone, exclusive Of
the boilers md machinery, will exceed five
hundred tons. The length Of keel Is go
feet; breadth Of beam, % feet; depth Of
each end, to prevent the necessity Of turning
in the river. The rud1ers themselves arc pom
lerous pieces Of workmanship, Of solid iron,
weighing not 1eas than Eve tons each, and are
to be SO fitted that by the action Of q very
simple aud easily worked piece OF machinery,
other is in use. There will BE- eight water
tight compartments or bulkheads. Besides
the iron kcelsons, the bout will be 1urther
strengthened by immense wrought iron STAN
chions, or pillnrs, at intervals along Its whole
length. There will be q double track laid
down on the deck, to accommodate fourteen
frsight cars. Tic beat Is especially adapt
Ter navigation here, and 1t is fully
expected, from the peculiarity Of her con
struction, and the Immense strength Of her
bows and steering apparatus, that she will be
able to make her regular trips irrespective Of
weather: The boat vas originally built IN
Glasgow, Scotland, by Messrs. Barclay &
Curle, ahir-builders, according to plans and
specifications furnished by the Great Western
Railway Company. 1t was then taken apart
and transported thithes, and is being recon-
structed under the superintendence Of Mr..
Nell Currie, of Toronto. Before being taken
apart, the several thousand pieces which COM
pose the hull were marked. md numbered, so
Is to be asain fitted into their proper places.
Most of the Iron is now delivered at the ship
ynrd, and the work Of putting 1t together Is
going rapidly forward. The boat Is designed
TO be ready for use next summcr.

A Canada correspondent Of the London
Times gives the following nnfattering but
not incorrect description Of our legislative
l. For two generations 1t has been the prnc-
ticc throughout the United States, With the
exception Of massachusetts, and Virginia, to
remove the seats Of Legislature from the
great cities to small towns situated ns nearly
az possible In the centre Of the Common
wealth, The reasons alleged werc-irst, the
distance Of the Parliamentary centre from nll
points OF the State md, second, the freedom
from mob influence and intimidation, to be
found In the rl1r1l districts, and which could
not be expected amid the rowly and excitable
population Of large manufacturing and CON-
mercial cities. For system Of government
which rests upon the snffrngcs Of whole peo-
offensive sense) form 80 large portion 81 the
constituency, the plea Of such necessity Is
somewhat damaging. No one ercr heard that
the Parliament Of Great Britain was not as
safe in Westminster IS II would have been in
KcDilworth; but the people Of the largo
States Of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio,
mlstrustel the crowd too much, though they
consent that populous and wealthy New York,
Philadelphia, and Cincinnati, should be the
seats Of the Legislature. The consequence
Is, that the capitals Of these and most other
States Of the Union arc but ilconslucTable
places, deriving fictitious Importance from
The presence once year Of the local
LEGISLATURE; but striving in vain to
expand, into the size or the dignity Of cities.
Washington itself, selected for the same rea-
sons as the capital Of the Union has little OF
the appearance, and none Of the amenities, Of
ycrit2ble metropolis. 1t Is place Of i'm
ucnse promise and small performance. It's
deeicn upon the typographical chart Is mag.
uificcnt. Its actual condition Is petty and
Disappointing mixture Of imposing public
ediEces, separated from each other by long
intervals Of inferior or half built streets, Ii
which tic pig-sty, the cabbage garden and
| tbe wooden khanty alternate with the brick
house and the marble mansion. Unpaved ani
unfinished, dirty and dtsreputable, swarminE
| with beer shops, grogseriss, gambling den
and brothcls. Washington can give no othe
| excuse for Its existence than the meeting Of ,
Congress, which would have been much bet
tcr housed at New York.

An Interesting Fact OF IlfstoFy.


During the revolution Of 1177G, when Patrick
Henry was Governor Of Virginia, he Was an-
thorized and requested by the House Of Bur-
gesses, to constitute and appoint COMMITTEES
Of yieiTnnce, composed Of the most capable
md noteworthy citizens. to direct the people
md propose nl measures which they, In their
wisdom, might consider conclusive to their IT,
terest and the defence Of their rights and lib
critics, The committee was composed OF the
following worthless Peyton Randolph, George
Mason, LudWell Lee, Joseph Cnbc!l, George
Mercer, Edmund Pendleton. 1t is Q remark
able coincidence that each one Of these emf
