TUESDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1859
The Great Eastern:
Great disappointment' was naturally felt at
Port Mutt, when it M'ils definitively announced
that the Great Easteru-'—the monarch of steam
ships—was positively not to cross the Atlantic
In 1859. It seems improbable, from altwe can
learn, that this ocean leviathan ever can per
form that voyage, without undergoing very
considerable and expensive changes. It would
appear, indeed, as if there were something
providential in the Directors' refusal of Mr.
LItVER'S magnificent offer, to charter her for
the first ocean-voyage, for $125,000 cash. Had
she been despatched at the anticipated time,
most probably the steam-monster would have
perished in the deep. If the explosion which
toirkfpltion on her trial.coastward voyage from
the Thatnesfhad ItccurredivlVa she was out,
at sea with full crew and some hniulredi 'of
passengers, the fatality must have boon enor
mous. At all events, ; it ; is now 'admitted that
she is not yet ready for an Atlantic voyage.
She remains in Southamptan harbor for the
winter, and her expenses there, with a hand
some overplus, will be defrayed by the monies
received from curious visitors, foreign and do
mestic.
The Great Eastern must be considered sim.
ply as an experiment in naval architecture. It
was resolved to make a steam Vessel. greatly
largei than any previously built, and the lath
Mr. BRIJ2!EL, engineer notoriously fond of
great oxperitnents, was employed to frame the
plans for the construction, and to superintend
their execution. Ills llret great error, we
should rather say % his first great detected error,
was the building her in such a peculiar locali
ty that it actually, cost as much to launch her,
once that het huge bulk was ready to float, as
would have cost a splendid and efficient Col :
line or Cunard ocean steamer. Sho was
launched, however, and was finally equipped.
The next step was to see how she was likely
to behave on the water. The accident which
exploded up part of her machinery, and blow
up her principal cabin, showed that her.
machinery was badly-designed, badly-con
structed, and badly-placed. She was patched
up, however, and made way to Holyhead,
where a strong gale nearly threw her on shore,
and would have done so, notwithstanding the
wondrous tenacity of MOTHAN'S anchors, but
for the prudence of the commander, who kept
up full steam all the time she was lying In her
moorings—a process which, though it insured
safety, is as costly, in the consumption of fuel,
as the voyage itself would be. Finally, she
found her way down to Southampton, where
she will remain, on exhibition, until the
spring. .
No doubt, our readers may desire to know
what is the present condition of the Great East
ern. The Times supplies this information, in
such a concise and apparently correct manner,
that we feel justified in copying it here. It
says: it NOw that the Great Eastep is com
fortably established at Southampeo'n, Mid saved
from all fear of danger, the improvements re
quired in her, machinery, and the additions yet
wanting hi the cabins, may be proceeded with
without delay. The mistakes made in the con
struetlon of the engines are now becoming up.
parent. During the voyage round to South
ampton both the engines were carefully watch
ed, to ascertain what defects existed, lin order
that-they might be effectually remedied during
41ils winter, and the result of this examination
""+" , k that several adjustments and alterations,
more or less required in many
parts of the machinery of both iturcri
paddles. There is ono defect in the plan,
or rather position of the paddle engines,
which is of consequence, inasmuch as it cannot
now be remedied, and that is, that either the
diameter of the paddle-wheels is too great,
or the AIM is placed too low in the vessel.
When the Great Eastern leaves this country
on a regular voyage, with full coals and cargo,
her draught of water will not be shorter thirty
or thirty-ono feet. At present she is light and
draws only about twenty-two feet, yet the
floats of her paddles aro reefed in three feet.
How much must they not be reefed when she
conies down some eight or nine feet deeper
in the water ? As they are at present, and
with an additional immersion of nine feet, the
wheel would be drowned,' as engineers term
It, and it would be impossible to turn them at
more than six or seven revolutions. There is
only one remedy left for this miscalculation
that is, by taking out the paddle engines en.
tirel?-, and bedding them up some three-and
a-half or four feet higher—on alteration which
is not likely to be attempted, as it would infal
libly take five or six months to complete it,
and cost £15,000 to £20,000. The screw en
gines are, it is said, neither as well made nor
as carefully finished as those of the paddles,
and a great deal of adjustment will be
wanted about the connecting rods to make
them work with less clatter than they
have hitherto done. A screw Shaft tunnel
must also be made, and the bearings of
the screw shaft be altered from white metal to
lignum vitae, and the shall at these parts cased
with brass to prevent the wood acting upon the
iron. The airways to the screw furnace are
said net to be so good as those of the paddle;
and this, with the smallness of the funnels, of
course operates seriously against maintaining
full steam. The authorities are talking of sub
stituting a proper teak deck for the refuse
green planks which aro now doing duty, and
which let the water through in talcums to the
saloons below whenever it rains, or whenever
the deck is washed. How it comes' that this
deck was ever allowed to be laid, the share
holders must fluid out for themselves; as they
must also discover, if they can, how it was
that the directors accepted the ship as finished
when, after all that has been done, it will re
quire at least fi.otn £50,000 to £60,000 to com
' plete her this winter as she ought to have been
completed last autumn."
This is a great extra expenditure, involving
a long-continued amount of labor, and the
most necessary alteration, that of placing the
paddle engines some four feet higher than
they now are, necessary to prevent the wheels
being as drowned," will not be attempted, be
cause it would cost much money, and occupy
five to six months. The question may even
tually arise, Whether the Board of Trade in
England, a Government establishment, which
has the power of inspecting all British steam
ship, will give its certificate to the Great
Eastern unless the whole of the necessary
alterations are made'?
Early in the spring, the English journals
say, the great steamer will visit different ports
in France, on the channel side, there to be
exhibited for money. Atter that, we are told,
she will be taken into the Mediterranean, for
the same purpose. No doubt b great deal
may bo picked up in this manner. For our
own part, having some recollection of the
boisterous passage, we should prefer not being
a passenger in the Great Eastern across the
Bay of Biscay, " where the stormy winds do
blow," and where there are more unpleasant
seas than ono usually meets in voyages across
the Atlantic, ten months in the year. It
would be a " lame and impotent conchision,"
as fair Desdemona said, for the Great Eastern
to achieve no higher destiny than to be merely
exhibited for her size, but it would not greatly
surprise us to find that such will be the case.

Entering the • cabs, we drove to a email tavern
and dodgiug•house in the :borough of Southwark;
'it was at least ono hundred years old. Before en
tering we were told that " here we would find two
old men sitting behind the bar, smoking their
pipes." They are brothers.' Long ego, when
'their father died; ke left a provision in hie' will
that if either married he should loge his interest
in this house. This would make him a beggar. In
consideration of this both have remained bache
lors, and are to be aeon at their accustomed spot
every night. 'We found the two, as we had been
informed. They wore apparently seventy years
of age ; their hair was white, and their faces bore
the marks of limo in the many wrinkiet. They
:welcomed ue heartily. We partook of Some re
freshments and bade them adieu. Over the door
is the sign "Edward Barnes, Beamed to •eoll Ale
and Spirits."
Our next place was a small-kitchen near by, in
,which were twenty-flve men sitting around a good
fire. Here the followinattle incident occurred:
While 1 woe taking my notes, 'Mi. Bled desired
the proprietor to show ts a fine little dog ho tad.
Upon this the owner brought the animal ; while we
were looking at Witte men crowded around us;
the dog jumped from his maker's arms, who,
at the same time; called out "machellem cobblem
lingum gn ;" upon this the crowd separated. Being
struck with the singularity of the sentence, I in
quired its meaning, "Oh !" answered the men,
" ifs only a name I hereto:. the dog." When in the
street, the' worth were explained. They meant
" take care, the bob's eyrie are on you." It coerce
there was a rascal behind me who was about in
vestigating the contents of my pocket, when the
owner 'of the dog saw his intentions, and at the
same time caught Field's eye on him. Ile gave
the fellow a hint in what it called the thieves' sot
eabulary, and which he thought none of our party
understood.
Having finished those places, we drove to the
dancing rooms The first was called the "Ham
burg Saloon and - German Sughr Baker." Over the
door was printed Cl Soloot Parties." There were
five 'musicians on a small stage, and about thirty
men and women ((irincipally Dritoh) dancing.
The next was the "li.fabogany For," Wenoble
Square. fore was a man playing ona harp, another
on a violin, while a third was singing a song. Af
ter this, to the " Three Crowns." This was used
altogether by sailors. They bade violin and tam•
bourine, and wore dancing to the music ; the Fto 7
men promoted a squalid and broken-down ap
pearance, and several looked es, if their race of
dissipation was nearly run ; the men were mostly
intoxicated and very uproarious'.
From this, we took the cabs', and after driving
soma distance, stopped at the "Blue Aare," St.
George's street, east, kept by a man named Sane
ders. Mere were about forty men and women,
listening to a man telling an, Irish story. After
be bad finished a girl sang a song, during which
there was a perfect plower of, pennies, without the
least thought for time or tune, thrown at the per
former, who was compelled to dodge from sido to
side to save her head. During the intermissions
the waiter went around the room, calling out " Give
your orders, Indies and gents."
Next to the "Cook and Neptune," where we
saw about thirty persons; they had a violin end
harp, to which accompaniment a girl was singing
an air from Norma. After this a meta performed
-with knives, halls, and a top.. During this
latter several girls were making a great noise in
one carper of the room, and the Master of the
Ceremonies was trying to keep them quiet. At
last he called out, "Now, Jenny Lind, I tell you
to hush, for if you don't I'll pitch you down stairs."
This had the effect of quieting her. There was
also a pretty girl who came to me and asked to put
her name down in my note-book. This request was
complied with. She wrote in a beautiful hand
Mary Gowan. From her writing I supposed elm
had not always been among such as she then wee
with. Upon inquiry, my aurrolso proved correct.
Her life was the old story—born of good parents, she
had boon deceived by some wily fiend in human
shape, who then left her; she had gone down,
down, &nil" tvintHst.s._:•antutd., th,e lows* depth,
whore we found her. her hair was jet blink and
her eyes the same color; but what was once bright
and piercing was now dull and inexpressive. She
was in fact the perfect picture of a ruined and do
graded woman, yet her manner bore almost unmis
takable proofs of having seen palmier days and
better society; yet what was she now?—the consort
of the lowest of the low. with nought left her but
to die, and be east into the earth, there to lie until
the lest judgment, when the betrayer and the be
trayed will be brought face to face. Would that
ho could now see her as we did, and that all the
innocent might profit by such a fearful example.
In the roam of the "jolly sailors" wore thirteen
pictures, which coat $2,500, representing two sots
of tableaux of a vessel; in the first painting of one
sot oho was leaving port all sails unfurled;
second, just outside the light-house; third, in a
storm ; fourth, the masts filled with sailors reefing
the salle; fifth, she was sinking; and lastly, the
blue ocean. As we entered, a female emitted us
with " Well, my boys ! how areyou to-night? Now.
I'll toll you what it is, I am the beet-looking gir l
about ; beauty was out of the way when I was in.' ,
She was intoxicated. They had a harp and violin,
and thirty-throe people sitting around.
We then took on our route Paddy's Goose, Blue
Critter, Old Gravel lane, and William IV. They
were all of the same kind. At the latter was a
room sixty feet long by twenty wide; at one end a
stage, the scene, and a dungeon. After a few
minutes, a man by the name of Curtis appeared
and sang the Maniac in as fine a style as henry
Russell. Here we retired into a private parlor
and partook of some refreshments; after which, wo
drove to White Chapel road, and entered the
Weaver's Arms. This was frequented mostly by
actors and actresses.
Passing the Pavilion Theatre we dropped in.
This will accommodate about 300 people. The
choice seats cost but six-pence: to some parts, ad
mission one-penny. As the night was drawing to
a close we hurried through tho " Sun and Coffee."
This was a model lodging house. It was a large
room divided into fifteen apartments, each six feet
two inches long by three feet wide, holding a bed
Here one could have a night's lodging for 4d, or
21 a week. The linen was changed weekly. The
proprietor had two boucle, in which he could de
commodato ninety parsons. Tho last place was a
lodging house in Montague St., Spite!fielde, kept
by Tipples; this was need altogether by thieves ; in
a room 50 foot long and 12 foot wide were ar
ranged two rows of beds; the coverings were all
marked Stolen from Tippina."
fly this time we were weary of our night's tramp,
and as it wee four o'clock A, M., turned our way
towards home. Wo had seen London in its misery
and wretchedness ; witnessed eights which no lan
guage can depict with appropriate vividness ; vis
ited numerous public houses and boozing-keno of
the vilest description ; seen phases of human de
pravity in most appalling views ; once handsome
females now lost and forsaken women, outcasts
from society, with thieves, murderers, pickpockets,
and gamblers for their associates. What a leeson
do we read In such placea!— and theao were all in a
city which boasts of its wealth, its eivillzatien, and
its philanthropy. How could I help comparing the
gorgeous palace, soon the day before at Windsor,
with these filthy hovels ! How true it is, that the
horses and dogs of the ,royal family are bettor
cared for, better lodged, and bettor fed, then the
human sons and daughters of toil of London.
What an enormous amount of money is wasted by
this royal family, which, if it was properly ex
pended, would support so many of them poor crea
tures who are namely covered with rags, and can

nut enough of this. The heart sickens when it
contemplates such scenes, and yet to see London
aright ono should make up his mind to a night like
this ; but lot him remember that no bright rays of
happiness will strike through this vast morass of
poverty, wretchedness, and misery. All of this
night that his mind will revert to in after life will
be attics and collars, faces haggard with want,
ruffian-like men and lost women, debauchery, pro
thigeoy, and loathsome wantonness, dwellings that
are not homes, and poor, wretched beings congre
gated together without any of the tics of friend
ship or kindred.
In one of the places which we visited, where
singing formed part of the night's amusement, one
vocalist especially attracted my attention. Robed
a good vole°, and conversed extremely well. One
of his songs, which was greatly applauded, turned
out to be his own composition, and I had some dif
ficulty in persuading him to sell me a copy, on the
prelates not to show it to any person in England,
as its being in his hands alone was a groat advan

SENATOR SEWARD AND HARPER'S FERRY.—

and adds:
Mr. Seward indignantly denies inter having

there was no mention made of such an attempt
at innarection. Colonel Forbes asked him for

that was all he ever saw of the individqal in ques

aThe Ypsilanti Herald, a loading Hemociatio

regardless of the wants and wishes of the Demo

have heretofore acted with their party, in public

pushed from their places by red-mouthed dema

A SPECIMEN 110.1 X —The history of a single hoax
will show how all the other tales from the North
which have driven Goy. Wise to frenzy, have been
gotten up, and will at the lame time prove the
value of the lot.
A few scamps at Morris, Grundy county, down
hero on the Illinois and Michigan canal, procured
the insertion in a few copies of their local paper,
of a flaming account of the preparations of the
Ashton Guards. Capt. Cleveland, for a march upon
Charlestown, for the rescue of Brown. One of
these copies, accompanied by a hifalutin letter, was
sent to the Now York Herald, and that journal
eagerly seized it as a new and most satisfactory
evidence of the treasonable demoralization of the
whole North. Of course, the story was a canard,
in ell its ports ; but as it shows how others of like
character have boon manufactured, it is worthy of
mention.—Ghicago Press and Tatum,.
The Administration ofPresident Pierce
The subjoined correspondence, now first pub
lished, speaks for itself.- It igu a matter of perma
nent and general historical interest,in its exhibition
of the personal and political relations of the mem
bers of the late Administration of the Federal
Government. As contradicting conclusively the
suggestions which, during the last two or three
years, have notunfrequently appeared, of imputed
want of harmony of orinion and action between
the hate President and his Cabinet, it seems to in
dicate how much there may be in the current im
pressions of men and events which the voice of
well-informed history will confute and reject:

national honor. . .

for your trust in my feelings as a man. Your situ

your agent at Harper's Ferry, and if you attend

To Major General William B. Taliaferrv, in com
mand at Charlestown—Sir: When John Brown is
executed on Friday, the 2,1 proximo, you will place
his mortal remains under strict guard, aniprotect
them from all mutilation. Place them in a plain,
decent coffin, and hare them taken to Ilarper'a
Ferry, there to await the orders and a,, ,, ent of Mrs.
Mary A. Brown, who has a duplicate of this order. -
You will also allow the bodies of her sons, who fell
at Harper's Ferry, to be disinterred, and taken by
her or her agent, or order.
Respectfully, yours.,
The following remarks about the tote-brokerage
we take from the New York Dry Goals Reportsr
and Economist; remarking that they hold good in
all respects of the same business in this city. Few
people not brought directly into eonneotion with
the note-brokers of our large cities have any idea
of the nature and great extent of the business trans
acted by them. No persons would be more sur
prised than the mass of our readers themselves, if
they could compare their own ideas of note-brokers,
as people engaged in running about, from one man
of money to another, with notes to sell, " shinning"
it all day, as the old saying was, with the reality,
as exhibited in the counting-houses of our prmcipal
note-brokers.
The Economist says:
"One of the institutions, of the city of New
York, which has become indispensable to the busi
ness community, is the note-brokerage, and at
present is a necessary medium for securing dis
counts. as well as an excellent channel through
which investments can be made. The banks re
sort to the note•broker to increase their loans, and
the merchant passes his paper throngh the same
agent. So general is the custom that but few notes
are received by merchants from their customers.
except such as are payable to the maker's own
order, and thus they are able to reduce the lines of
their eastomens without creating any sensation in
money circles.
" The system bears the same relation to the mer
cantile classes u the clearing-house to the Links.
and is quite as effectual in establishing and main
taining private - credits as the clearing. house
that of the banking institutions; for the standing
of business men is quite as soon and as accurately
ascertained by the rate at which their paper sells
in the street as in any other way."
