Caput", Eatcason.—The . followieg letter from
Captain Ericsson to the editors of the "Appkiwis
Meckinier Megaziae," appears in the April num
ber of that peri'odical:
Yop state that, the furnaces of the caloric ship
preseli . • uare feet of great surface. This is
not rue. They only present 761 square feet.—
,Y. , assert that forced blast may be resorted to, to
a ellen extent that eighty tons of coats may be con
s MU' in the caloric ship in 24 hours. This as
ertion is untrue; no force blast whatever can be ap
plied, nor can the consumption exceed eigkg tons in
24 hours, the chimneys being only 30 inches diam
eter, and 12i feet above deck. Small passages
were originally formed for passing air from the ex
hadst-pipes, under the furnaces, in cos, the power
ful suction of the engines should be found to pro
.duce a back draught. Such a difficulty not having
been experienced, the passages alluded to were long
egotlosed with brick-work. Your assertion, there
fore, is groundless, and you fall short of the truth
in the ratio of ten to one.
You next state that we have only fifty wire disks
in each of our regenetators, composed of wire-cloth
of four meshes to the inch. This is equally untrue;
fez we. have oar hundred and fifty disks, and only
half this number is tif the kind you mention, the re
maining half being much liner. According to your
statement, our regenerators would only present
about 4,600 square feet of heating.surf,ice, whereas
they actually present upwards of 15.000 square feet.
Laboring ander this gross error, you draw the infer
ence that our regenerators are of little use, ke.—
Now, the fact is, that our regenerators in the cal
oric ship are singularly effective, the temperature
of the air in the exhaust-pipes never having reached
31 der •ee above that in the conductors from the
supply-pipes. ,
You broadly aims that the quantity of fuel eras
mimed in the caloric ship has not been ascertained,
and you brand Our great demonstration as a failure;
new the fuel has been accurately weighed, and the
consumption found to be 4} tons in 24 hours, effect
ing a speed of more than seven miler an hour: that
you call a failure! Is there a steamship in exist
ence of the size, by_the Ericsson, capable of going at
the rate of twice the stated consumption? L•t me
state a fact here which has not ye! appeared before
she pnblic. The elasticity of wrought iron heaters
has been found so great, that during our tria's, and
during our trip to Washington, we did not venture
to average more thin 7} pounds presure per square
inch; cast-iron heaters are now being made, to en
able us to carry full pressure.
You state that my engine is nothing but a copy
of Stirling's air engine; or rather you state that
which leads to that inference. Now it would be
-difficult to conceive two machines more dissimilar
In action and mechanical construction: Stirling ex
pands and contracts a certain volume of air, and
thereby' operates a working piston, the power of
which is Moat precarious, and it diminishes the in
slant the piston moves; my caloric engine, on the
other band, resembles a high pressure steam en
gine; it has a pump and a working cylinder; the
former charging a receiver, from which the - latter
receives its supply, like a steam cylinder from the
boiler. By the emphatic ginner in which you plate
before your readers tho discussion on Stirling's en
gine before the lostitutitution of Civil Engineers in
1846, and call it "old," your readers are made to
draw the inference that lam forestalled. Let us
see how the can stands: in 1833 I put my caloric
engine in operation in. London, and submitted the
principle of employing heat over and over again to
the scientific world. Faraday and Lardner at brat
repudiated the idea, but soon became convinced, and
lectured on the subject to large audiences. The
celebrated Drs. Ure and Ritchie else became my
warm .supporters. Will any one contend, there
fore, that I am forestalled by an echo, in the Insti
tution of Civil Engineers, 1816, of the arguments
which! had advanced 13 years previously?
The Whig State Convention.
The Ly coming Gazette, in speaking of this
body in its assembled capabity at 'Lancaster 'says:
Tice late Convention at Lancaster, which an
nounced to the people of this State,nomineoa of the
Whig party for the approaching canvass, was a
queerly made up affair. It seems to have been gath
ered' together from what heterogeneous material
could be found and "cooped" in Lancaster city.—
We believe no person was deputed to represent this
representative district by any regular action of the ,
Whig party here; yet it was represented by Mr. J.
W. Fisher, who was a "substitute." Whose sub-;
@Brute he will, is a mystery. The action of this,
self eenstiteted body we presume will be regarded
as orthodox in every particular by all good Whigs;
,but what different results might have been witness
ed, had a regular constituted brdy had affairs in
,charge, will be an interesting theme of speculation.
query: Would Mr. Pownal, of Lancaster, have re
ceive..i a nomination, without the influence and votes
of tie seven extra Laneasterians? Would tone
grade Myers have been endorsed in his treason by
a coifvention of regulars?
Th ee Lancaster Intelligencer speaking of the late
convption, says, "Lancaster county bad something
like4iirgeen delegates,seven more than she waxen
titled to. Mr. John A. Heistand undertook to rep
reeerit the Senatorial - district of Carbon, Monroe,
Pike i and Wayne; Mr. M'Pherson, Editor of the in
depehilant - Whig, assumed to be one of the repres
entaiive delegates from Blair and Huntingdon; Mr.
Merhaffey represented Centre county; Mr. Goseler,
Conamorland; - Col. Herr, of Columbia, Monroe and
Eke, etc., eta. .Io this way they succeeded in get
tirig together about one hundred gentlemen, who
farmed what they have been pleased to style a State
Convention. for the purpose of nominating a State
Ticket. The doings of such a body cannot carry
anuch weight when tested before the tribanal of the
people."
°REGO:C.—The reports which have been circulated
from time to time of gold in quantities to be worth
working, both in the Yakima country aid the Grand
Ronde, • Oregon, have received new confirmation
within a few days, by the arrival of several persons
from the uppercountry; and we learn that similar
intelligence has been received at. 'Vancouver.—
Should this news prove true, as we hare littleressnr:
to doubt, a vast stimslus will be given, not only to
the trade of Oregon generally, but to the settlement
of that portion lying east of the Cascades. Immi
grants crossing the plains will find an inducement
to settle forewith in the neighborhood of the digging,
on finding that supplies will be forwarded to them,
and there will be.work for the next Legislature in
laying out some more counties.
Q 7 " The Pruvidenci Journal says that the at•
tempt to raise money enough, by subscription, to re
tain Mr. Webster's Marshfield estate in the posses
sion of Ms family, is likely to fail, and that the place
will necessarily be sold. It infers that the peowe
of Boston are a good deal more apt at making speeh
es in honor of Mr Webster's memory, than in acting
ii, compliance with his eipressrd desires. The I3or
too _Courier, in correction of an inference which may
be drawn from The Journal's language, states that
everything at Marshfield which the public would de•
sire to see preserved as a permanent memorial of
the great statesman—meaning, probably, the house
sad grounds adjacent—will be secured for that pur
pose; but that it is not yet settled that his wishes,
in regard to his birth-place, in New•Hampshirt, can
be carried into effect.

that it is impossible to improve oar streets. and meet the

Whom they termed up In Cincinnati. As Lowell is on the
Wooten] Reserve, nearly a hundred and fifty miles from
Cincinnati, the destination which the goody obtained was
not less curious than the length of time consumed in
getting there. filach instances, we are told • are by ns
meant rare. Tho New York and Erie road, instead of
being a connection with the west, is only a connection
with Dunkirk, and happy is the man who does not have
to go there. and hunt his goods up. often waiting weeks
for them• if not months. And when packets' escape

A. article under the head of the "Franklin Canal
Railroad" appears in the last Geults.esdeavering to keep
up the old silly spleen against that most valuable work.
and far what purpose an eld oonteinptible and onjoeiei
ens war is recommenced, it is impossible to Wows,. If
I were disposed to retort, it would be easy to show that
the Pandora. box, so familiar with the wrier, if it ever
has been poured out upon the citizens of this devoted city,
has come from entirely opposite quarters, and quaters
in which the writer very penally has received his bread
and batter during a considerable portion of his , existence;
and it would net be difficult to demonstrate too, that it has
been almost,.if net entirely the only honestly constructed
work of improvement, that we have been eaablsd to
Witnees in oar neighborhood—and the only corporation
among as which has not been guilty of the grossest ecru
motions, even to the making of a bye•word of our place.
Look at the Erie Bank—the Erie Canal Company—the
Erie and North East Railroad company! ! ! as far as
their management has b cue concerned reflect warts
•pes the body politic. I would like the writer le point
oat the man ever prominently connected with the west
ern Railroad, such a fool as to deny its paternity or to ex
press a wish to have the road stopped or the rails torn
up.
I weeld have passed this stepid article or the Gazette
over in couteinpt and disregard. did I net have reason tai
believe that it hat an object, at this partica►ar period. un
manly and @mischievous. JUSTICE.
