WHAT THE
ADMINISTRATION k
IS
DOING,
prom the A. 1. TiinM.
While the critic of the adnnuifltrAtlou are
deeply immersed in atnlifitica Bliowing how
tunuv drives General Grant takes, Low many
dinnvrs.be eats, and how raany cigars he
Buiokes, another class of Htntistiun, from an
other himrce, is from time to lime put before
the public, 1ho bearing on the mime question
of the "Prenident'H policy." 'fhe critics, how
ever, are bo intently occupied with the borse-eud-rignr
question that they naturally have
little time for the othor matters which only
relnte to public retrenchment and reform.
Let us look, however, at these latter, statis
tics a moment. In the first place, we
liave an official announcement from the
Treasury Department, that during the month
of October seven millions more were taken
from the national debt, making a total de
crease for the eight months and loss of Grant's
administration of more than sixty-four mil
lions. This , is pretty good for a start,
especially from an administration which is as
Bailed by its opponents as "neglecting the
public interests. Let us hope that it will go
on "neglecting" thorn in the same way
through the remaining third of the year.
In the next place, we are told that the ex
Lib it of departmental expenses before Con
gress will probably show that they are all (un
less possibly the Interior) keeping within the
narrow limits of the appropriations made
last year, while the Navy Department has
confined itself thus far to its unexpended
balance, and has not touched its appropria
tions for the current fiscal year. These ap
propriations are only about fifteen millions,
at any rate, and during the first quarter of
Ihe year a saving of !$:1X),000 over the first
quarter of the previous year was effected.
This is the department about which we have
heard so much, in connection with the alleged
'mismanagement and general "ignorance
ftf Admiral Porter and Messrs. liorie and
Robeson. Can we not get more of the same
jund of "mismanagement in other quartets;
But the 'War Department exhibits the most
remarkable figures, to show what the adminis
tration is doing. 'J.ms was the department
most narrowly watched , at first, as General
Grant's personal influence and responsibility
Were supposed to be here most conspicuously
manifest. Well, the army expenditures for
Ihe first quarter of the last fiscal year were
St;27,0'.0,244; those of the first quarter of the
present hscal year were 15,141,202 leaving
A dift'ernce to be passed to the account of army
economy of .$ 12,7r4,!82 in the first three
months. Making all allowances for a relative
decrease In the ratio of savings in other
quarters, there is yet no reasonable doubt
that, with peace continuing, the department's
expenses will fall short of $.0,000,000 this
year; and this, contrasted with the $80,000,.
000 of last year, gives a gain of $30,000,000,
The reduction of the army by Congress, the
change in our Indian policy under Grant, and
the discharge of clerks and other civilian em
ployes, are the secrets of this gain. "It is so
perilous to peace, we are told, "to put a
soldier at tne neau oi an airs.
Finally, in the Post Office Department, the
expense of the mail service has been reduced
over ij-HHi,)uu aireaay, ana, we, are assured,
,"this department will be very nearly if not
quite self-sustaining during the current year."
In the general civil service, we are informed
that the cost of collecting the internal rev
enue has been reduced by fifteen per cent.,
as compared with last year, while by the dis
charge of superfluous clerks, in the Treasury
Department alone, a saving of $090,000 per
annum has been enected.
Upon the whole, we are inclined to think
that the administration's "neglect," whioh its
critics complain qf, very strongly resembles
what, in private affairs, we are accustomed
to call activity, prosperity, frugality, and
reform.
BRITISH INDIA.
From the A". Y. Tribune.
The military revolt of 1857, known 83 the
Indian mutiny, so full of bloody memories,
lias, indirectly produced remarkable results
aff ecting the well-being of the teeming popu
lation of the Anglo-Indian empire. For two
centuries previous to that outbreak, British
power in India was little more than unmiti
gated selfishness. And not without reason
were the English once reproached with the
charge that if they were driven from India
their only memorial would be pyramids of
empty beer bottles. But this has been
changed. The mutiny broke upon England
like a clap of thunder, arousing the nation to
B sense of the precarious tenure by which it
field India, and convincing ita statesmen that
a new policy of government, based upon jus
tice and humanity, was absolutely necessary.
The progress of British India during the last
ten years, owing to the adoption of this
policy, has been great; while the improve
ments already made are but the forerunners
of important future enterprises.
Railway enterprise in India antedates the
mutiny by many years, but since that event
old lines have been greatly extended and
Several new ones opened, so that now the
country has a system f railroads uniting
Bombay, Calcutta, and Madras with the ex
treme provinces of , the Northwest. During
the last decade 2,000,00 tons of railway iron
Lave been obtained from England; numerous
Substantial railroad bridges have been thrown
over great rivers; . and the construction of
keveral of the roads presents, it is said, a
keries of mechanical triumphs to which Eng
lish engineering can show but few parallels,
in addition it is now proposed to build 00O0
miles of new line, at the rate of .000 miles a
year, and at a total cost of one hundred mil
lions sterling, the managomeut of the under
taking to be vested in the Indian Govern
ment, whether the roads be made by the
Btate of by private companies. Irrigation,
too, upon wbich,in a country like India,
successful agriculture so greatly depends, is
receiving a large share of attention. Already
a heavy outlay na been made for this pur
pose, and the British Government is about to
he asked to become security . for a loan of
several millions of pounds to construct works
Intended to rival in magnitude the great crea
tions of ancient India. How stupendous
these were may be judged from the rant that
in fourteen districts of the Madras Presi.
dency thereare at present upwards of 43,000
tanks and channels in repair, with probably
30,000 miles, of embankments. The produc
tion of cotton also demands notice. In the
first year of our civil war the value of the
cotton exported from India was not quite
2c,000,000; but under the fostering care of
the Government, aided by private capital, the
yield this year is estimated at $12r,000,0()0,
gold. The cultivation of the tea plant, which
lias proved very successful, is likewise spread
ing, as is also that of the Cinchona tree, from
the bark of which we get quinine. Forests
of this Clnehon
honn, planted in recent years, are
in the "illy regions of the north- '
crowinsr np
ern provinces. wmie the industrial re
oniw of India are being thus rapidly de
veloped, the Government is holding out
every encouragement to education. Colleges
are multiplying, and 10,000 schools attended
by H,(MK native children, are iu active ope
ration. - -
What effect all this will have upon tho con
tinuance of British rule there wh thei' it will
reconcile tho Hindoos to fortlyn domination,
and render impossible o ' renewal of the
horrors of 157 is yet to bo seen. England
has certainly been very obtuse in learning to
govern justly her Asiatic dependencies, and
has still to contend with formidable preju
dices, the growth of centuries. Now, how
ever, that she seeks to consolidate her power
in the Orient by civilization rather than the
sword, her chances for retaining India are
greater than they were, always providing that
Russia does not interfere with her plans. But,
in any event, her present policy will partially
atone for some of the crime that has marked
her procress in the East. and. roorsevered in.
will lay the foundations, broad and deep, of j
what seems destined to be a great and pros
perous nation.
THE HEALTH OF THE EMPEROR NA
POLEON THE PEACE OF EUROPE.
From tht X. T. Herald.
Rumors are again afloat regarding tho
health of the Emperor Napoleon. It is said
that he has had a return of his former illness.
The rumor, of course, has been contradicted;
and we are not unwilling to state that we have
quite as much faith in the coatradiction as
we have in the report. It is undeniable, how
ever, that in spite of the contradictions there
is a very general conviction that the Empe
ror's health is not sound, nor can it be said
the conviction is ill-founded. The opinion
prevails that, while the Emperor may live for
many years, his death within a brief period
would not be a surprise.
This fresh rumor of his being ill revives a
question in which we are all more or less
deeply interested whether the peace of
Europe and the world would not be seriously
imperilled by his death. It is undeniable
that certain great national and Bocial im
pulses are held in check mainly by him. The
German races would be a unit to-morrow but
for the opposition which is given to such
union by the chief of the French nation.
The smouldering elements of revolution
which are known to exist in Eastern Europe
would burst forth but for the combination of
which Napoleon is the head-centre. Soon as
Napoleon is gone the Hungarian empire will
take the place of the Austrian empire, and
the German races will consolidate under the
imperial rule of the Hohenzollerns.
Russia will become more imperious, and,
taking her little sister Greece by the
hand, will reinstate her In something of her
former greatness. There are, besides, social
questions which command " attention far
beyond the limits of any nationality ques
tions which in their development comprise a
European confraternity, alike indifferent to
the distinctions of nations and to the distinc
tions of class. These revolutions will not be
accomplished without much commotion
not, we fear, without large sacrifices of blood
and treasure. That these forces do not com
mand more attention now is due mainly to
the fact that the stroug repressive hand of
the Emperor is upon them. That hand weak
ened, or removed by death, an explosion may
be looked for.
This it is which explains the recent conduct
of the great powers. It is well understood
that Great Britain, Prussia, Russia, and Aus
tria on the occasion of the Emperor's last ill
ness, assured him of their sympathy, and, at
tne same time, ot their determination to sup
port the claims of his son. The Bonaparte
dynasty, it is felt, is the best protector of
thrones. The death of the Emperor would be
a severe blow to the interests of royal fami
lies. It would let loose the "fierce democra
tic. The question is whether the son of Na
poleon will have any restraining power.
' HORACE.
From the K. T. World.
It has been privately insinuated that Horaoe
could "cuss" the hair off a brass monkey
wnen ne got nis aanorun up. nut mis heroic
aptitude of the veteran journalist has been
careiuuy concerned jesi it mignt alienate
pious votes and lend to defeat his aspirations
for office. The Sun, however, with the reck
less malevolence which characterizes it on all
occasions, comes out with a ruthless exposure
of the philosopher's, profanity. From the
specimen brick of malediction which it attri
butes to him we infer that his capacities in
that exercise have not been overrated. There
is a rotundity and an emphasis in his curses
which we do not remember to have noticed
in others, and they add such weight to his
discourses that we wonder he does not en
liven his rather monotonous and inconclusive
contributions to the Tribune with a sprinkling
of them. They are not argument, it is true:
but neither are the epithets which he so libe
rally dispenses, and upon which he has built
no small share of his celebrity. We would
give our readers a specimen of the desperate
proianiiy oi Mr, ureeley, as reported by bis
old f nend and associate, in order to show
them what an awful pirate he is, but that we
never admit such language to our columns
under any circumstances whatever,
1WILER EXPLOSIONS.
We quote the following from an important
paper, republished in the November number
of tan AostrancTt Eclectic Engineering
Magazine, from the London Engineer:
livery one at all conversant with the work
i - ii j ....
jug oi uouers is aware tnat wnen they are
allowed to run short of water, the furnace
erowns are apt to become overheated, the
plate to be bulged downward or otherwise
distorted by the pressure of tho steam,
and in many cases to be rent, from whioh
cause explosions frequently arise. This
admitted on al hands, and the ration tle
ou Di-juuo iuui mo wuoie must be at once
apparent.
It is not, however, by any means so gene
rally Known that furnace crowns may be
overheated and bulged out of shape suffl
ciently so in some cases to cause an explo
sion even when thev are covered with nn
ample supply of water. Such, however, is
unquestionably the fact, and I wish specially
to call attention to the subject on the present
occasion. '
Overheating of boiler plates when covered
with water has been found to arise from two
causes one, the too local action of an in
tense fire, the other the character of the
feed-water. . ,
Injury from intense firing sometimes oc
curs to boilers heated ly the flames passing
off from separate furnaces constructed of fire
brick, as iu the case of puddling furnaoes at"
iron works, when the flames are too fre
quently allowed to impinge directly upon the
boiler, in consequence of which steam is
generated so rapidly that the water is driven
off from the plates, and overheating ensues.
This is more especially the case where the
boating surface is a vertical one, no that the
steam on rising forms a separate film between
it and the water. Two explosions resulting
from this cause may be referred to. One of
these oocurred at an iron works on the !lh of
February, 18.", to an externally fired boiler
of the upright furnace class, heated by the
flames passing off from two puddling furnaces,
as well as from a large fire-grate. Another
explosion of a similar character occurred on
the 7th of February, 1N0G, to a jjjain cylindri
cal egg-ended boiler, heated by the flames
passing off from a mill furnace at a works
employed in the manufacture of angle iron.
It is desired, however, on the present occa
sion, to call attention more especially to those
cases in which pverhoating of the plates,
whether in externally or internally heated
boilers, has occurred simply through the char
acter of the feed-water, aud not from any pe
culiarity in the mode of firing. The feed
water which is found to be more particularly
productive of overheating is highly impreg
nated with carbonate of lime. It forms but
little scale, and that seldom thicker than an
egg shell, though perhaps in some cases it
may be nearly equal to one-eighth of an inch
It deposits, however, a cood deal of fine
flour or dust, which
lightish color, As
loose, a good deal
away with the water
is generally - ot a
this dust is quite
of it is floated
when the boiler is
emptied, while the
remainder is readily
washed out, so that . on account of the ease
with which it is removed, and the ught
character of the scale, it frequently escapes
attention. If grease be introduced into
boilers in which this deposit is formed, the
furnace crowns are found to give way, the
plates to bulge downwards, and leakage to
take place at the seams of rivets. Ihe dis-
tortion or the lurnace plates, however, does
not. as a rule, take place suddenly; on tho
. . . . . -
contrary, the crowns come down very gradu
ally, progressinc little by little, day after
day, though Hard tiring, in many cases, lias
an immediate influence. Grease is intro
duced into boilers in various ways. The
feed-water is frequently heated by blowing
the exhaust steam trom the engines upon it,
so that the crease in the cylinders is carried
with the feed-water into the boiler, while, in
addition, the discharge taps from the cylinders
sometimes blow into the cistern from which
the feed-pump draws, so that the boiler gets
all the engine sewage. Blowing the exhaust
steam from the feed-water has another effect
beside the introduction of grease. It is some
times lost sight of how much of the deposit
formed within boilers is lifted out of tho
water by the steam and carried through to tho
engines, and thas disposed of either through
the exhaust pipe in high-pressure engines, or
in the hot well in low-pressure ones. When,
therefore, tho exhaust is blown upon the feed-
water, this deposit is returned to tho boilers.
and a constant accumulation takes place, more
especially if blowing out be neglected. That
the steam lilts tne deposit, and carries
it alone with it, is clear from tho fact that
it is frequently manifested at the glands
and other parts of tho engines, and also is
heaped up in the steam dome when there is
a shelf on winch it can accumulate. These
shelves are formed when tho shell plate at the
base of the dome is not cut away to
its full size. This forms an eddy in tho
current of the steam, and leads to the -de
posit being dropped on the shelf plate, as
last stated.
With regard to the manner in which this
floury deposit affects the plates over the fire,
and leads to their injury, it does not appear
to be necessary to suppose that this deposit
becomes heaped upon the plates in order to"
lead to their overheating. - it is doubtfful
whether it settles at all as long as the
boiler remains in active work; while, were
it to do so, it would settle where the ebulli
tion was the least violent, and thus not on
the furnace crowns of internally fired boil
ers. Possibly this fine floury deposit, by
thickening the water, interferes with the due
escape of the globules of stoam, so that they
are kept longer in contact with the plates
over the fire than they should be, and thus
the intimate contact of the water with the
plates becomes interrupted, and overheating
is produced. This may perhaps be illustrated
in the following way: Ulear water placed in
a clean saucepan may be briskly boiled over
a fire without foaming over, but if a little
meal be dropped into it, or the water ex
changed for milk, the globules of steam are
no longer able to escape teely, and in their
struggle they upheave the whole mass, and
vomit a portion of it into the, fire. Such is
thought to be somewhat the action that takes
place within a boiler charged with this fine
flourv deposit. The clobuleB of steam im
prisoned in the water lift it from the prates
in their struggle to escape, and thus gradual
overheating takes place in proportion to tne
character of the water and the intensity of
the fire.
I am not desirous, however, of entering too
minutely upon the precise manner in which
this floury deposit leads to the overheating
of the plates; suffice to say that the results
are indisputable, that numkers of boilers
have been injured by it, and whatever may
be the precise modus operandi, it appears to
have the power of preventing that intimate
contact of the water with the plates whioh
is essential for carrying off the boat with
sufficient rapidity, so that although they may
not be made red hot. vet thev become suffici
ently overheated to lose a portion of their '
tenacity, when bulging underpressure ensues.
Numerous instances of this have come before
my notice. "
