had the pleasure of meeting with

trust it may be within the province
of these gentlemen to make some ia

with reference to the expediency of
repairing and reftting the State

will lead to favorable action on the
part of the Legislature within the

good many Of our river steamers, are
supplies with the tubular boiler. This
fact must naturally inspire feeling of
dread in the minds Of the travelling
community, and deter many persons
from placing themselves at the mercy
of these seething volcanoes, when cou-
templatipg a journey by water.
We have heard, says the New Or
leans Bee, but one merit pleaded for
the tubular boiler--that it generates
steam very rapidly. This 10 an excel.
lent quality, taken by itself but the
public may doubt whether it was suHi.
Gent to justify the Inspectors 10 sign
ing certificates recommending it on
the score of safety to the confidence
OF the travelling public. Gunpowder
generates heat very rapidly, but that
does not prove either its efficiency or
safety as an article of fuel As the
public expect to be warned of the
place where powder and other highly
explosive materials are stored, it would
seem now to devolve on Inspectors to
advise travellers of the manner in
which the highly explosive boilers in
question are distributed along our riv.
ers. Shall we be left as heretofore for
those deadly agents to make there own
report amid a chaos of fraementary
steamers and dismembered, blistered
and calciDed human bodies In the
meantime it is gratifying to observe
the alacrity with which the proprietors
and agents Of steamers which are des-
titute of the tubular improvement are
making the fact known since the mel.
apchoIy results attending its use on
other boats. - :,

WASHINGTON, February 9.-Ssnate. Mr..
Clark, of New Hampshire introduced bill
to amend the judicial system of the United
States, which was referred to the Com
mittee on Judiciary.
Mr.. Cowan presented a petition for the
repeal Of the homestead law.
Mr.. Howe presented petition of city Of
Wisconsin asking Congress to spend no
more time in discussing whether the
Southern States are in or out of the Union
but to legislate TO protect loyal men there
both black aud white.
In reply to. Mr.. Gutherie who denied
that Kentucky was ever disloyal, Mr..
Sherman said the rebels of Kentucky were
the most troublesome during the war.
New York, Feb 9.-Ex-Presiden Pierce
made hriei address at the New Hamp-
shire Democratic Convention endorsing
President Johnson's annual message, and
saying he was pleased to greet as CO. wor-
kers in n noble cause, all who desire the
Immediate restoration of the Southern
States to their rights, and who are willing
to join in saving whatever may be saved
for the prosperity of our common country.
The Herald's Washington special gives
the report that the cashier of the Internal
Revenue is to be abolished, as little or no
money is paid into the w ashington office.
A bureau for redeeming mutilated currency
is to be re- established.
The Comnserc5aps special says Napsleon .
speech gives general satisfaction. The
strctest neutrality will continue to be
preserved by our Government. The issue
between Maximillian and Juarez must be
alone decided by Mexicans on Mexican
soil.
The Posts special says the bill passed by
the House of Representatives appropra-
ting the public lands in the Southern

TUBULAR BOILERS.

The late terrible explosions Of the
steamers Missouri, W. R. Garter, and
Miami have served to arouse the pub
lie stupor and direct scientific inquiry
to the imminent peril attending the
use oftubular boilers.
In speaking Of the recent expIo'
sion Of the Missouri, the New AL
bany (Ia.) Ledger says that there
seems to be but one conclusion ar
rived at among we'll posted engineers
and steamboat officers in forming a
theory for the explosion-and all
agree that it was the result Of the gen
eral insecurity Of tubular boilers. The
use OF these boilers upon steamboats,
should be forbidden BY law, and trav-
eIers and shippers should make it a
point never to take passage or ship
upon a boat that uses them. They
are acknowledged by all to be highly
dangerous, and there is but little ad
vantage derived by steamboatmen from
their use. Indeed, they seem to be
Deaths own jpyention to suddenly rush
people by hundreds into eternity, and
to bring mourning to hundreds o.
households. II people will refuse 70
patronize boats that use them, they
will soon be discarded.

sD- Our city continues to be in
Tested by burglars. Not night
passes without some evidence of
their daring operations are made
manifest. Nearly every store and
residence in town has been visited
by them, and in numerous instances
they have effected an entrance and
succeeded in escaping with consid-
cradle booty. On Saturday night,
Mr.. 2. MAGNETS store, on Lafayette
street was entered and robbed of
about 500 in money. Several at
tempts e rob other stores as well as
private dwellings were made, but
were checked by the inmates who
were on their guard and saluted
the intruders with few pistol shots,
but, as far as we can learn, with
out effecting any damaging result.
On Sunday, night the store of Mr.
BEAL, on Third Street, was entered
and robbed of some fifty dollars worth
of merchandise. An Intellectual at
tempt was made to blow up the iron
safe by means of gunpowder. Three
persons suspected of being concerned
in those nefarious proceedings were
arrested on Sunday. Two Of these
were subsequently released on ex /.
aminotion before the Mayor, as they
seemed to establish their innocence
in the transactions. The third party,
whose implication is surrounded by
very suspicious circumstances, was
renanded to jail to await further
developments as to his case.
The redoubled vigilance and zeal
of the proper authorities is earnest
~ invoked toward suppressing the
outrages, which are nightly being
perpetrated in our city, to the injury
of citizens and the disgrace ofpublic
law and order. Our citizens one and
all, unite in demanding that more
efficient and watchful police organi-
cation should at once be perfected in
view of such objectionable frequency
of lawlessness and crime. Mean
while, let all citizens be on their
guard and endeavor individually and
in organized bodies, to protect them
selves and the city from these re-
peated infractions Of law, order and
security. n..
