perfect types Sf marine architecture, af-
rived as her wharf, foos of St. Andrew
street, at midnight Of the twenty second,
| twenty four days from Bremen, via HavFe
and Havana.
The Strassburg brings $50 emigrants of
almost every nationality. of which l4O go
| direct TO Texas. nineteen 20 st. Louis, and
| the balance wherever the FIRST opportunity
| offers.
! AS this steamer leaves New Orleans on
the first of next week fos Bremen via
Havana and Southampton, brief descrip-
! ton of her may be- interesting to those who
contemplate a voyage 90 Europe. The
| Strassburg was built on the ely desless than
! one year ago for the North German Lloyd
| Steamship Company, at d cost of G80,OoO,
! which figures alone prove she fact that
every comfort which motley could purchase
| must be there; and it is, from stem to
stern" from truck to keel" there is moth
| ing wanting. She is 800 feet long and forty
| feet breadth of beam We are informed
| that these ships can be of no greater length
| and be turned around in the harbOr of Bre-
merhaven. Her average speed is eleven
miles an hour, and her passage across will
| be about nineteen days, including her call
| ing at the two other ports.
The saloon appoint ments are ample for
! 100 first class passengers, and IN point OF
elegance, ventilation and comfort generally
| are excelled by none. A large amount of
| deck room at sea is as desirable as good ac
| cOmmOdatiOns below, especially in fine
weather. We find this ship with over 300
| feet of clear promenade, having a flush
| deck fore and aft. To the experienced as
well as the inexperienced everything looks
staunch, seawcrthy and shipshape on board
this noble vessel; and with line so well
managed as this has proved to have been.
their ships properly loaded and well manned,
there can be little danger other than from
accidents, which would seem almost mira
cles, and as likely to befall one on land as
well as at sea. A sailors feeling of security
on board his vessel is fully illustrated In
stray slate from of a roof falling and strik
ing poor Jack on the head In looking up
to see where it came from, he was heard to
exclaim: Thank God, go to sea to NOR
row, where mans life is safe ~
No one can say that the recent disaster
to the steamship Atlantic will soon be for
gotten by those holding responsible posi-
tions on shipboard. The press and the pub
lie have censured those connected with that
accident so severely that we predict sea-
son, at least, Of greater care and more earn
est Watchtulness on passenger shIps than
ever before.
At any and all times the Strassburg is
open to visitors. A courteous officer will
alWays be found on board to- show them
about, and as we have no capital invested
III these fine steamships, let Us show our
appreciation Of direct trade by patronlZlng
them.

Domingo-The Piedmont Railroad.

DOmingo-The Piedmont Railroad.
WASHINGTON, April 23.-The board of
supervising steamboat inspectors have
nearly completed the revision of the rules,
the object being TO deprive them of all am
biguiuy. The inspectors now require man
ufacturers and agents of regulating steam
gauges to guarantee them for one year
The provisions for life preservers remain
the same as now, and the regulations as to
lifeboats are rendered more practical and
in accordance with the spirit of the law.
The board has recommended certain new
inventions. but does not compel their adop
tion. The board is fully impressed with the
Importance of selecting competent and re-
liable men as engineers, pilots and others
connected with steamboats,, and will, more
than heretofore, insist on thorough ex-
aminations before the granting of licenses.
The board will adjourn sine die to-morrow.
Supervising Inspector General Smith this
evening gave a dinner at the Ebbitt House
to the board. Among the guests was AS
sistant Secretary of the Treasury Sawyer.
1t is stated upon quite reliable tillibuster.
ing authority, that fifty men, twenty-i five of
whom are experienced officers, have left
here to Join an expedition of 1900 men who
will shortly leave an American port in the
interest of Hayti to depOse Baez and oppose
the occupation of Samana Bay by the Amer
leans. Is is Intimated that the Haytien
Minister Mr.. Preston, has been quite lib
4ral in furnishing outfits to the officers.
Legal proceedings have for some time
been pending in the courts against the
Piedmont railroad, in Virginia, on a mort
gage. Application was made to the AttOr-
ney G neral to seize the road under the act
of 1861, on the ground that it was contis
Gated to This government, it having been
construc I'd in the interests of the rebellion.
The ArrOrney General has lust decided
that the Presidents proclamation of pardon
of 1865 operated SO as TO restore to the cor
porators or stockholders all their rights,
and therefore the right of the government
20 seize the road is barred.
The District Attorney has been directed
60 discontinue proceedings and to forecIose
the mortgage gwen to the Confederate gov
ernment, on the ground that the contract
is a nullity.
All proceedings against the road will be
dropped. the interests at issued were

Our New Postmaster.

The forethought that led to the selection
of Mr.. Charles w. Ringgold as postmaster
at this city IS every day becoming more
and more appreciated on the part of those
who have business to transact at the Post
office The attentive ear which he daily
gives to the numerous inquiries relative to
missing letters (which usually prove TO
have been misdirected), and the polite and
gentlemanly manner with which he Pc
ceives and answers all questions relative to
increased postal facilities for our State and
CITY. merit the thanks of our whole com
munity.
Mr. Ringgold is native Of this city, and
is closely identified With all It's commercial

advancement of she commercial interests.
We commend the policy which served to
make him eur Postmaster, and predict for
him that he will materially aid in uniting
the hitherto eontending political factions in
one common bond of brotherhood. we
DO not claim that because he is a native Of
on. city that he 10 therefore better fitted 10
discharge the official duties which devolve
upon him, but we do claim that his appoint

evinces strong desire on the part of the
general government 10 give some prefer
ence in the distribution of federal patron
age to such native born citizens as accept
the situation" in good faith and pledge
themselves 10 @ cordial support of all fed

The Salary Grab Act.

There is a great deal Of talk and bluster
in Congress about repeating the Back Pay
Steal Salary Grab Act. Why so much talk
ing and fillibustering over this thing, gen.
tlemen? It didn't take such vast amount
Of bloviating to put it through in the first
place, and why should it require any more
to repeal it ? We are in favor Of abrogat-
ing the abominable act from beginning to
end. Unconditional repeal is the only
thing that will be satisfactory. Sweep it
from the books, gentlemen. This needn't
take you very long and won't require 50
many words. If the salary Of the Presi-
dent, or that Of members of the Supreme
Court, under the old law, is not enough,
let US begin over and make things right,
but let US first get rid of the hateful act.
We do not think it will be found necessary
to double the Presidents salary at once.
We think an increase Of $4,000 per an
mum would be quite enough. But no half
way work and no compromising on last
winters bill will be tolerated by the people.
The Grange advance., 1873-12-17
The Presidents Message.

We had prepared short review Of the
late message for our last issue, but by some
oversight it failed 70 get an insertion. As
usual the party papers take extremely diff
ferent views Of the merits of this document.
One side reads it only to find fault, and the
other only to praise. The fact is it is nei-
ther better nor worse than fifty other messa-
ges. For our part we think there is WON
derful sameness in these documents, except
in the length. There is one remark that
shows the President keeps pretty we'll posted
on matters generally, and we commend its
careful perusal to all fossilized and hide
bound party men. He says, Political
partisanship has almost ceased to exist,
especially in the agricultural districts" :"
He is in favor of the different States build
ing residences at Washington for its men,
bers of Congress.
The President has evidently heard Of the
farmers movement, and thinks it worthy at
least Of hint
