D The Liberal Convention which met at
New Orleans on the 5th inst. is slow in their
deliberations. After the organization on the
5th, they appointed a Committee on the 9Th
to confer with the Democratic State Commit
Tee, but the latter would listen TO no oyertures
unless the Reform Committee was admitted
into the meeting, and all three were then
mingled into one, but up to the NOR ming of
the 7th nothing had transpired of their delib-
erations, and all was conjecture at the hour
ofgoing to press.

sectional square inch, not exceeding twelve
thousand pounds for iron, or thirteen thou
SAND 1Or steel boilers, an increase; as the
Department understands of twenty eight
hundred pounds, or about thirty per cent
over the ratio allowed for the past twenty
years.
In this connection reference may be
made to the fact that of the explosions
which happen on the Western rivers nine
tenths occur while the boats are going up
stream, when the temptation is strongest to
use the highest available pressure in order
to maintain as nearly as possible a maxi
mum rate OF speed.
''The maximum of pressure, therefore,
whether required in testing the boilers or
allowed in working the boat, becomes u
consideration of the utmost importance,
both to secure sufficient degree of tensile
strength, in the first instance, and to pre-
vent its being unduly strained afterward
The changes proposed in these respects
may, it is feared, increase rather than di-
minish the chances of explosion"
1t will also be seen that the Cheap John
lobby want permission to give the poor deck
passengers poorer accommodations, and to
increase the pressure of steam about thirty
per cent. That will do for to-day.
1t is some comfort to know that the Cheap
Johns do not represent the entire steam
marine of the United States, but, on the
contrary, a small fraction of it. A major
lty OF steamboat owners are honorable men,
who are willing and anxious to have the
most stringent rules established for the pro-
lection of life and property on board of
steam vessels, but they are not found lob
bying about Congress.
