LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Steam Navigation Laws-Grand Juries
Preventives of Danger.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN,:
The various calamities Detailing our steam
river crafts Of late although in most of the
distances of recent occurrence, the result OF
snags, collisions ice gorges and gales, have
adverted our attention to a circumstance
singularly ignored or designedly overlooked.
The regulation Of steam navigation upon
our river waters has been reduced to sys-
TEN of laws as complete as that Of any spe-
cial jurisprudence by Congress in its assem-
bled wisdom. Among these laws is one Of
vital Importance and interest, looking to the
removal of incrustations from impurities in
water, conceded to be, by scientific re-
search, the prolific source OF disasters and
loss of life.
The question now naturally arises as to
the enforcement of this law. To whom be-
longs the power, and is it enforced! AS
servants to whom the public welfare is en-
trusted, to whom are confded our lives, we
have right to demand the faithful execu-
ton of their duties; and neglecting these,
it is the imperative province of those in
higher official positions to see that their
subordinates carry out the same. In case
of the failure of both parties to act, the
grand jury should take cognizance of the
matter, as it is beyond the pale of individual
interference. There are, we learn from au-
thentic sources, infallible, or at least, al
most unfailing means of preventing incrus-
tatiOns in steamboat boilers from secretions
| of impure water and measures should be
taken to have them thoroughly, fairly and
practically tested, without further jeopardy
| to human life and detriment to human
| limb. We have no interest in any scheme
or participation in any enterprise, but in
| formed of the existence of such preyentives,
we ask, from simple curiosity, why are they
| repudiated SAFETY.

A BIG Law SUIT IMMISEST.-1t is IN
derstood that one Of the fertilzing compa-
MES will at once institute suit against
Mayor Flanders for heavy damages. 1t
seems that the worthy Mayor has been in
fringing upon corporate rights by causing
water closets to be placed at certain street
companies that have been authorized by
law to have charge of such institutions.
