THE notion that steamships may
be suddenly stopped 10y brake, as
railroad trains are, seems queer at
first, but Boston Yankee has found
a coutrivanco Tor this purpose, and
has applied and tested it, with APP
parently perfect success. His in
veution consists OF pair of shutters,
hinged on either side OF the vessel =
stern post, 30 that they will remain
closed against the vessel unit, an APP
paratus, whose control is 10 the pilot
house, opens them and fixes them at
right angles to the ships course.
An ordinary side wheel steamboat
was stopped the other day in Boston
Harbor by these fms. as they are
called. Many gentlemen were on
board, aud, though the steamer was
making, it ia said, ABOUT twelve
miles an hour, they testify that the
vessel did not 90 ahead her own
length after the fins were opened be.
fore reaching full stop; and then
the engineer, reversing his engines
moved her back, the shutters closing
again. As for the shock, 1t was
much less than that OF railroad
train suddenly stopped by an air
brake, Should this machine be ap-
plicabIe to large ships with powerful
engines, half the fear Of collisions
would be gone. 1t would have pre-
vented, for example, the last colIis-
ion on the Ohio, with its great loss
OF life. Though it - yet to be seen
how this contrivance would work on
huge going vessels, with their
greet momentum, fot many smaller
steamboats, its usefulness seems al
ready established.

retormers have no voice either in
determining the policy or selecting
the candidates Of the Republican
organization; and the question is
whether they will now hold alooi
II ON the canvass and allow their adj
versares who have triumphed over
them to be defeated at the polls; or
will they lay aside their own griels,
forget their overthrow, and cooper
ate IN eleoting the candidate2
This is an interesting question,
and 1t is rendered more interest
ing by peculiar circumstance which
is novel in our politics.
Judge FoLaER is undoubtedly
the candidate who is most aereea-
BILE to that restless and casting
millionaire, Mr.. JAY GOULD. Mr..
GOULD wished that CORNELL should
be beaten, aud that FoLGER should
be chosen, aud the Convention has
Sratlfel him. MIR. GoULD's Gavorite
is thus put at the head of the Re
publican party in New York. Mr..
GOULD is becoming very formida-
BILE figure in American affairs. With
his may millions and his ever fruit
tul cunning. he IL now seen at the
front IN politics as well as in finances
To a large portion OF our citizens
this fact Is exceedingly revolving
and TO none Is II more SO than TO the
class Of Republicans that we are
considering. The fact is greatly ia
their credit, and we add that they
are earnest, and we believe tney are
immovabie in their convictions.
They do not wish to be ruled by Mr..
JAY GOULD. They do not wish to
have han select a Governor for New
York. They will not vote as he
dictates, nor in any way shape their
political action to aggrandi2e the
wealth and Importance Of this grasp
ing and lnsatiable speculator.
For these reasons we conclude
that very large portion of the Re
publlcans Of this State will not vote
for Judge FoLGER, aud we honor
them for il. This is new era in our
politics, aud its novelties are still far
from being exhausted.
