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. Times, 1WA. 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.

We havo had occasion, more than once, to notice its bold as sertions and the miserable subterfuges to which it would resort, in tho exuberance of its seal, to sustain its tottering causo} but we were hardly prepared for 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 content to make a slanderous extract from that pink of political purity, the New York Express, tbe Re publican charges this paper with having been “ for Disunion and a Southern Confederacyand further, that tbe Georgian was " in hot hosto to burst asun der tbe ties which bind us to this glorious Union,” Ac. Hera is a serious charge, solemnly made and de liberately put npoa the record. We cannot suppose 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 gian will show whether it ever advocated Disunion or a Southern Confederacy, and the Republican has had tbe opportunity of examining every political article that ever appeared in this paper.

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.

[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 rier, 8th. 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.

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 ville Ntici. 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, Wisconsin. 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 lato rains, it appears, have been pretty exten sive, and caused considerable destruction iu various ways. On Thursday night last, part of an embank ment on the Wilmington and Manchester railroad, crossing, we believe, a mill-stream, about 55 miles from this place, was carried away by tho breaking of the mill above the road. The road was washed np some 150 yards, and caused tbe cars due yesterday morning to be detained until the train leaving Bruns wick River could get up, so that the passengers could be transferred. We learn from passengers that the damages will probably be repaired in tho course of to-day. Some seventy-five hands were employed on it yesterday.—Wilmington. Journal 10th. It appears from a parliamentary return that last year the declared value of British cotton manufactures and cotton yarn exported from the United Kingdom was£29,868,087, tho highest amount except one, for the year 1833, In which year tho valuo was £18,471,- 240. In 1852 English exports of cotton to Russia wore £175,733 to the northern ports, and £19.417 to ports within tbe Black Sea, white to Turkey the amount was £1,779,693. To the British settlements In Australia the amount was £337,060, but to China £1.905,321 ; highest amount of cotton goods export ed to one place last year was £5,358,442 to the British territories In tho East Indies. *$y.: J2& A Larob and Valuable Cargo.—The dipper ship Syren, (of Salem,) Siltebee, arrived at New Bed ford, Massachusetts, on tha 5th installVfrom Honolu lu, with 25,618 gallons of sperm oil, 198,524 do. whale n, l, and 11,545 lbs. bono, valued at $ 160,000.

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.
