sed that a large proportion of
de fatal disasters occurring ers occ annually by , •
ex

inland waters of this country, might-be pre
vented by the adoption of precautionore •
stringently devised and more faithfully en
forced, to ensure the reliability of the ma
terialsls employed. the constru6tion or pro--
,Iylsion of such ft, the competency of the
officers in charge f them, and to reduce
the fire-risk to its practicable minimum. A
bill for this purpe e, very elaborately min
ute in its details, w -proposed some months
since by Special Agent CRAWFORD of the
Treasury Department, and was laid_before
the House Committee on Commerce. Re
cognizing the very 'evident fact that the
Only effective legislation to the ends desired
must proceed from(ogress, a letter to the
Committee, achcompying the bill, dwells '
very forcibly upon timperfections of ex
' isting laws, even the act of 18521eaving
'much yet to be desired. Mr. Cutworm's
letter exhibits:n thorough acquaintance with
the subject, and the bill (H. R. No. 1872) is
- believed' to supply the reedful regulations
which would ensure as complete a protection
for life and property, in transit by water, as
can be afforded by the use of the best mi
terials. in construction, and by establishing
the highest standards for the skill and pru
deuce of the officers in charge of the vessels.
Very naturally,'-the topic of fatal steam
boat disasters leads the mind first to that
class of accidents 'reiulting from boiler 6x
plosions. A very large fatality has occa
sionally resulted &Tim collisions, from fire
and the various other method's of destruc

explo4ions, although seldom occasioning
any greater loss of life, suggest to every
mind ideas pecoliarlyrstnrtltnk and painful.
The suddenness of i their occurrence, the
complete helplessne; of those who are ex
posed to become ,vi Ms, the fact that death
is, in a majority of
,Orses, preceded by pro
tracted and intense `auffering, and that dis

these explain why we are all' inclined to
regard an explosion of a steam-boiler as the

in their influence.
The Presbyterians are fully , aroused; at
some places to the necessity of aggressive
movements, -by the erection of houses of
worship in destitute places in and near large
cities. The right spirit Is seen in the re
marks of Rev. Dr. Homblower, of Pater
son, New Jersey, who, in urging his people
to form a new church in the outskirts of
that txmgregatlon,•said : "All of yon who
live beyond street, go out there and be
organized into a church ; If it leaves half of
the pews vacant, we will see them ell filled
again in a few years." This is the right
spirit.
