STEAMBOAT SIGNALs.-The Marine Asso.

waters, so that
when boats are meeting in the night-say
from shutdown 10 sun-rise--it shall be the duty
of the pilot of the upstream boat, as he discOv
era the approaching boat, if, in his opinion, she
shall be within 500 yards,to stop his engines, and
the pilot of the down stream boat to work his en-
gines slow. II not within that distance, as soon
as they come in that distance, when the descend

she desires to pass, and shall continue to blow
his whistle at proper intervals until the ascend

This is all very well--but let congress do
something to compel the employment OF
none but competent pilots, and there'll be no

We don't think it is "all very well" for
they'll always "be satisfied there was no
danger Of a collision" after smashing each
others boats and killing few dozen people.
If the authorities would hang few captains
and pilots on the Ohio river, it would be the
best "signal' we can think of, and would
probably avert good many murders.

The DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLE.-lt is said
by very ancient traveller that you step
one pace forward over the boundary line OF
two Spanish provinces and you suddenly
are transported from Paradise to the sridity
of desert. You take a skif and cross the
Mississippi and you are transported from
the people of Rock Island to the people Of
Davenport. To understand the incalculsble
divergence of these two let the stranger
read little local incident in the Democrat
of last evening, illustrative OF the habits Of
the transamuian native. Dr. Burtis, the
proprietor of the Opera House over there,
granted Che privilege to the Sunday schools
of the city to use the building for the annu.
al Sunday school concert. Upwards Of 1900

of the hall by taking up collection at the
door. This was accordingly done-yielding

ia so small as that the DR.. should have got.
ten anything at all. l. should have been
put in gilt plate and carried by the mayor
and city authorities, in municipal state, on a
crimson cushion,to DR.. Burtis, and have been
presented with flourish of stereOtyped pre-.
sentstion eloquence. Now,the most wonder
full feature in the whole proceeding is the
fact the money was given By the church
people; by the "Unco guild and rigidly right
eous," as Robin Burns would call them; it
being deemed one Of the cardinal christian
virtues to be utterly parsimonious in the
giving of money, and to pay their current
| debts in prayers. We therefore scout the
