^Itherednottonof the time, by deneu, to tvrelvo,
end Until? to nine daya and a fraction. Bat thla re*
dnctlon U erklentty but the precursor of oontlnaed
diminution Of the period required, end therefore we
ere not much inrprtaed to learn that one or the most
eminent of living engineer*, William Norris, of Phil
adelphia. baa commenced constructing in this city a
steam vessel, to be ready to sail somewhere about
next February, and which will, In the opinion of the
inventor, be able to performa voyage to Europe, hab
itually and securely, within alx days, besides possess
ing various other advantages over ordinary steamers.
This vessel Is now building at Green Point, and is
of the following dimensions:
Length on deck fret 225
Depth of hold 21
DU me Ur of psu)dl* wheels. 80
Beam amidships 87
Draft of water 6)f
Displacement tuns 760
Power horse 1200
Aoeommodatlona fur 80 passengers?
The builders guarantee that abe will make the voy
age between New York and England within six days
in the winter season. William Norris, Civil and Me
chanical Engineer, and John W. Griffiths, Naval
Architect, are the constructors and patentees. They
claim the following advantages in their improve
ments :
1. A perfect security against fire or water.
2. Less risk to life, ana greater comfort to passen
gers.
The boilers will be placed within walls of Iron,
with Iron beams over tho same.
Air chambers of sufficient sustaining capacity will
extend the whole length ot the ship.
Tho sudden shocks of bead and beam seas.towbich
all ships of tho present construction are liable, are
obviated by these improvements, while the gentle
undalating motion, always maintained, will tend to
S revent sea-sickness, and at the same time keep tho
ecks dry, except from spray.
The foil power of the engine will ho reserved for
combating heavy gales, while ships or the present
construction are compelled to slacken their steam os
the gale increases in severity. These new Improve
ments enable more steam to be applied the harder
the gale blows.
These facts do not appear more startling than those
announced in 1836 by the same William Norris, when
his improvements in the locomotive engine enabled
him to ascend an inoliued plane of one foot rise in
fourteen feet, which at the time was considered con
trary to common sense, and against the laws of gravi
ty, bat which was nevertheless accomplished, to the
surprise and satisfaction ot the whole scientific world.
The high standing of John W. Griffiths as a naval
constructor, who has made many valuable Improve
ments in shipbuilding, and the reputation of Mr.
Norris as a mathematical and civil engineer, would
argue perfect success in the present undertaking.
•' The machinery of the snip will consist of ono
walking-beam eDgine with two tubular boilers, all of
the most improved construction, but without any
thing new in their principles. The power of tho en
gine, in proportion to the size and draft of water will
be very great, about five times os great, we believe,
as that of the steamers of tho Cunard line. In an or
dinary vessel such power cannot be applied, as it
would tear the hull to pieces. In the present case,
however, it is made practlble by tho peculiar internal
structure as well as by the novelty of tho model; but
as this mode of strengthening the ship is a new in
vention, the patent for which has not yet been issued,
wo refrain from stating any particulars with regard
to it. As far as we can judge, however, it is well
adapted to Its ends."
As will bo aeon by the figures we have given above,
the floor of tho vessel is unusually flat, and its drart
of water exceedingly small. At the same time the
bow !b anusually sharp. In fact, the model is the re
sult at once of a great deal of practical experience, as
well as of laborious and careful mathematical calcula
tions, and it is believed that its lines and forms are
such as to produce the least possible resilience In pass
ing through the water. Here, then, we have the
grounds for the estimate that an average speed of
twenty miles an hour will be attained in Btorm os
well os calm :
1. Sharpness of bow, perfection of curves and light
draft and buoyancy.
2. Enormous power of ongine.
The dally consumption of coal will be 90 tons, and
the stock for a passage about 300 {’no freight is to be
taken. The vessel is named the William Norris.—
She will be ready for launching by the first of De
cember. Her boilers and engine ars building at
Scott’s. 8he will carry no masts, bat will be arranged
with jurynuuta to rig in case of necessity.
Savannah Steamers.
The Committee appointed by the lato meeting at
the Southern and western Reading Room, met, ac
cording to appointment, at the office of Henry Man-
kin, Bowly'a wharf. The city was divided into dis
tricts, between up town and down town men. A list
of the stockholders in the Charleston lino was obtain
ed. and arrangements made to go to work vigorously
on Monday morning. Lists are being alphabetically
made out of parties to be called on.
We take this occasion to say to the merchants of
the South, that every effort will be made by the best
men in this city to secure the building of these steam
ers. Every one directly or indirectly interested, will
be called upon. They will be urged to take stock—
Jf these steamers are not built under all these cir
cumstances, it will disappoint us, and be a just cause
of disappointment to our Southern friends. The first
duty of a press is to be truo to the interests it advo
cates, and perfectly fearless in saving what it is ne
cessary to say, without regard to the private interests
or private feelings of any one. We have urged, over
and over again, tho importance —the necessity of these
Btearaera.
Wo intend that nothing shall remain unsaid, calcu
lated to give confidence to those who will bo called
on to participate in this movement. We havo been
in earnest. The peoplo or the South are in earnest,
and If Baltimore Is not in earnest, tho sooner we
known it the bettor. It is due those whose trade we
aro seeking. H Is useless to say that this trade is not
increasing. It is Increasing. But this increase is
owing to the indefatigable enterprise of houses
through their agents at the South. They are holding
their customers under great disadvantages. The Is
sue is before us. We have made it. If this import
ant movement for Southern steamers, fails, as before
stated, it will be due to all concerned to say nothing
more about our aspirations for trade in that quarter.
It will be due our own self-respect, that our wordy
intentions should ccaso. Give us but these steamers,
and every department of trade and industry would
feci the effect. The property holders would gain by
it. The Hotels would gaiu by it. Tho Insurance of
fices would gain by it. Every department of com
merce aud every branch of trade will gain by it. Will
any fine tell us who will not be benefited l—Balt.

The British Colonies,
Recent parliamentary document* acquaint us with
the heavy expense to which the British Government
is Htill exposed for tho caro and control of her colo
nies. In the year 1843 this expense had increased to
£540342 for civil government, £74,005 for naval ex
penditures, and £2350,919 for military expenditures,
making a total of £3,171,046.
In 1847 their expenditures had Increased to £3,-
804,038, but had declined to £2,014,354 in 1S50-’51.
Tho prominent item of expenditure in 1843 was the
military government of Gibraltar. This amounted to
tho enormous sum of £219,465. The military expen
ditures for Canada were £525,226, and for tue North
Eastern Provinces £172,030.
The number ol British Colonies is forty-fonr •, of
these, eleven, including Gibraltar, Malta, Capo of
Good Hope. Hong Kong, and places of that charac
ter, are military and maritime stations, maintained to
facilitate commerce, or for the general strength and
security of the British Empire.
The London Times remarks. " It is to be regretted
that there are no materials for bringing the table
down to a later period, the figures which It includes
being the latest the government are able to furnish ;
ft circumstance that impairs its practical value. Ex
tensive as are the Colonial possessions of England,
there seems no reason for requiring two years for ma
king np such an account as the present, under a uni
form Bystem, and if the exponditure. instead of a
public aflair, were that of a mercantile body or a pri
vate company, a shorter interval would probably be
found sufficient.
Free Trade.
We have already expressed oar conviction of tho
Importance of a still further reduction of the duties
upon foreign Importations imposed by the tariff of
1846. With »n Incoming revenue of upwards of sixty
miliions/andft large surplus in the Treasury, what
possible reason can be assigned for the retention or
tho protective features of the present tariff? The
administration has novr a golden opportunity to es
tablish ft free trade with the world. Tho Richmond
Enouirer expresses oar sentiments when it says :
‘•The present tariff Is ft freo trade tariff only by
compnrinoo, ud ire.appreciate tlie racoon onto
operation by contrast with tbe deadening and Ira-
porerlrldng effects of tho restrictive dalles or 1842.
In many rapeote the preeent te a tbiy bordenaorae
impost; nnasing unequally on different interests, and
weighing too heavily in the main on the labor of the
country, ft needs revision and reform. We have
won n position in the march of conquest: and the
time is oome for another onward movement. Anoth
er reduction of duties must be made, and the list of
nntaxed articles mast be extended. We want freer
trade. . Tbe coontry demands it—the occasion ls an-
upicious. We have now thirty *millions of dollars ly
ing idle in the vaults of tho treasury, ana we have an
anual income exceeding by one hundred per cent the
annual expenditures of the government nndor ordi
nary Qirououtaaoes. The pubUo deht may be extin
guished in two year*. Then we shall have a clear
path before us. The income of the government
should be diminished, so as barely to equal tho expen
diture* under the most economical Administration.
Every article of necessary consumption may be made
to bear the amallest possible burden, and the tax on
tbe people be reduced to.tte lowest farthing. Then
will the government conform to .the idealof its(Re
publican fathers, and.we may boast a country without

The paternity of the foregoing can hardly be mis

tho above, aud on reading it could come to no other
conclusion than that the “ Conservative” organ in
this city bad a code of morals peculiar to itself. Not

of political purity, the New York Express, tbe Re

Disunion and a Southern Confederacyand further,
that tbe Georgian was " in hot hosto to burst asun

Ac. Hera is a serious charge, solemnly made and de

tho Republican could.mistake the import of its own
language. What, then, are we to suppose was its
object in uttering tbe slander? Tiie files of the Geor

a Southern Confederacy, and the Republican has had
tbe opportunity of examining every political article
that ever appeared in this paper. We are not disposed
to bandy epithets with the Republican, or to hurl back
upon it denunciation for its tortuous courso and its
double-dealing even with its own friends ; but we do
defy it to make good its assertion. Failing to do thiB>
or to retract, let it stand convicted of a calumny.

Messrs. Editors : As a sentinel on ihe watch-tower of Do-
locracy, allow mo to apprise you of tho unfair “tricky”
tort of game attempted to bo played off on our party by

. by far the most Influential man in this division of Ueor-
la. I herewith transmit you a specimen of tho tickets
)ut to Bulloch by tho friends of Mr. Bartow, by blssanc-

: cketa are printed by the wholesale for Democratic coun-
os, with If. V. Johnson for Governor. C. S. Henry for

Sentence off a Judge.
The Hon. Jacob Flinn, Judge or one cf the conrts
in Cincinnati, was tried in the Police Court there on
the 5th Inst., and convicted of assault and battery
upon the person of Mr. John Joliffe. It appeared in
evidence that the Judge knocked tbe complainant
down, and struck him several times while he was on
tho ground. Tho police justice, before passing sen
tence, asked the prisoner what he had to say. Judge
Flinn replied
“ I havo very little to say. It ia very true these
things were done in open day; there was no advan
tage taken of the party, os was evidenced ny the fact
that I struck him with my open hand.
“ Tho Court is not iu possession of the details. I
think in this case there is a few of self-presevatiou
thatopperatoson tho mind of every roan, and I be
lieve, in the Christian age, he may submit to ontrago
upon outrage, until submission b.-comes allied to dis
grace. It iM8aid that the last grain of sand broke the
camel's back. I havo submitted until it seemed to me
that attacks were made upon me by the scullions on
the streets. I hope tint while this arm lias strength
I will ever bo able to defend my character and my
family. I was driven to desperation. These are the
facts—other considerations of a domestic character,
which cannot be mentioned here, influence me. If I-
havo infringed upon the law, and broken it, I ara
willing to meet the penalty. [Ho spoko this with
much feeling, and sat down sobbing audibly. As he
took Ids seat tbe crowd outside tuo bar applauded
him loudly.]”
He was then fined $30 and costa, npon payment of
which bo was discharged. Judge Flinn’s decision in
fugitive slave cases have rendered him obnoxioous to
the abolitionists in Cincinnati, and ho appears to be
persecuted iu every possible way.
Brown University.
The oration before the Alumni of tbis College was
pronounced ou Tuesday by Judge Thomas, of the Su
preme Court of MnsunchnscUs, who selected for his
subject, "Some General Reflections upon tbe Leading
Feature of our Civilization, its Material Progress,”
his purpose being to show that every accession of ma
terial needed new spiritual strength to guide and cou-
troi it. The Providence Journal says:—
•‘The reputation of Judge Thomas had raised high
expectations, and it is not too much to say that they
were more than realized. Its literary character,
though it was a finished production, and which only
an accomplished scholar could write, was the least of
its merits. Its clear insight into the character and
the wants of his country and his time, and its Just
and Chriataln temper, will cause its words of wisdom
to be remembered by every thoughtful man who beard
it. The Alumni of the University have reason to be
proud of their representatives on this occasion,
The oration before tbe Literary Societies was deliv
ered by Rev. Mr. Magoon of New York, who took for
the theme of his discourse Bishop Berkeley’s celebra
ted stanza:—
* Westward the star of empire lake* its way,
Her first four acts are already past;
The fifth shall close the drama of the day,
Time's noblest offspring is the last.’
He treated of the progress of the race, considering
the age of Pericles, or artistic beauty as the first act;
the ago of Augustus, or martial force, as the second
act; the age of Leo X., or enlarged invention as tbe
third act; the age of Washington, or universal eman
cipation. as the fourth act; the fifth act to be the age
of perfected civilization.
The orator discussed his subjet t with great clear
ness and force, and was eminently successful in secu
ring the attention of bis audience.
The oration was followed by a graceful and pleas
ant poem by Rev. S. Dryden Phelps.”—Boston Cou

Common Cchools In Florida.
We rejoice to learn, through Judge Livingston,
that he has received notice from Mr. Walker, State
Register, that there 1ms been a division of tbe School
Fund for the year begining on the first of July last,
under tho net of the last General Assembly. The
whole amount for distribution in the State is $3,946 ;
which, divided between 15,415 children, gives to each
child a fraction over 19 cents.
Tho distributive share of Duval county Is $181 78,
and the number of children in the county 951. This
o.«m may bo nd'lcO b, bj a La A, lu l«J ICtlcU b* tho
County Commissioners, who are also created a Board
of Scool Commissioners, and have the disposition of
the School Fund. They have also tho responsible
duty of organizing and establishing the schools for
the county, in conjunction witli the Judge of Pro
bate, the latter of whom is County Superintendent,
and has the task of examining und employing teach
ers.
These additional duties add greatly to to tho impor
tance of tho offices of Judge of Probato and County
Commissioner, aud Increases the necessity of having
competent men to fill these places; for though the
School Fund for the present year is small, yet it is a
begining, and will be increased every year as tho
School Lands are disposed of, and to result, in a few
years, in a general dissemination of useful knowl
edge to the rising generation in our State.—Jackson

Immense Haul of Stolen Goods.
Boston. Sept, 10.—'The Journal of this afternoon
learns that a large quantity of stolen goods were dis
covered last night in Concord, N. H., consisting of
boots aud shoes, sole leather, clothing and cloth, hard
aud hollow ware, fancy goods, Ac.
Some of the goods have been recognized as stolen
from stores in that vicinity, but the greater part from
various cars and railroad depots. They were found
in the house of Justice Squires, who has fled. Squires
was pardoned out of tho State prison some four years
ago.
It is estimated that $50,000 worth of goods have
stolen by Squires and his gang, one-tentb of which
has been recovered. Part of tho shoes found are
marked Emerson, CocUrau A Co., Peari-st., Boston,
directed to Messrs. Townsend A Bros., Fox Lake,

Wonderful Preservation—-Cant. Wilder, of tho
Canada Express, says that a boy about 12 years nid,
living at Youngstown, took a freak that he would see
Canada, and started in a skiff on Sunday morning to
cross the river, and was carried out into the Lake by
the current, and drifted across to Whitby. Ho was
on the Lake 36 hours, with nothing to eat. He had
nothing but a piece of board to paddle with ; and his
preservation is attributable to a favorable wind, which
carried him into port in lime to prevent starvation.
Trial of Speed.-On Wednesday the 31st nit.,
there was a grand trial of speed on the Niagara river,
between the New iron steamer Peerless,build in Eng
land and set up at Niagara last season, and the On
tario. The run was fora distance of six miles, from
Lewiston to tbe Niagara dock, tho Ontario beating

Wc give below our usual table of the amount of Cotton
consumed the past year in the States South and West of
Virginia, and not included In the Receipts at the Ports —
We have Increased the Estimate, as a whole, from the year
prevlmis being satisfied that our figure* for theConsump-
tion - on tho Ohio, fcc.” have heretofore been considerably
too low. while on the other hand, for some other parts of
t .o enuntjT tho, ore‘tlghtl, reduced. M It la teeirkiio.o

To which, if we add the stocks in the interior towns, Acc.
the quantity burnt in the interior, and that lost on its way
to ma.ket, to the crop as given abovo. received at the Ship-
ping port*, the aggregate will show very nearly the amount
raised In Ihe united Slates the past season—say, in round
numbers, 3.360.000 bales against 3.100,000 for the year
1851-2. and 2.450.000 for the year before.
During tbe year just closed, there was received here 6w
bales from Louisville by way of tbe New York and Erie
Railroad, and 7.000 at Baltimore, and 2100 at Philadelphia,
overland, from the West, nearly U not quite all of which. U
is believed, came from Tennessee. This last item we have
of late years omitted from onr Annual Statement of the
Cotton Crop, owing to its insignificance, but the Increased
« *™ n *P°rtation afforded by the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, having rendered this a favorite route for
shipments from Tennessee, Ac., the amount coming from
that quarter, the past year, has largely Increased, and we
have now added it in another place to the Crop of the
Country.
The quantity of new Cotton received at the Shipping Ports
up to the 1st Inst., amounted to 710 bales, against 6,125
bates last rear. ’
The Shipment given In this Statement from Texas, are
those by Sea odTV ; a considerable portion of the crop of
that State finds Its way to market via Red River, and is in-
eluded in the receipts at New Orleans.
