SAFETY EXGIXR. The steamboat ?Icrrimack left Haverhill for Newbui port on the 1 1th Apt il. This boat is propelled by one of Wadworih's safety steam engines, and is
the first boat in which an engine of this kind has been used. Il differs essentially from any other in the principle of its boiler, which is composed of seventy small tubes, all kept full of water, and joined at one end to a large reservoir. A safety valve is placed at the opening of every tube in the reservoir, which, in fact, makes every tube a distinct boiler, holding about one gallon of water. The tubes arc made of w rought iron, and the reservoir is made amply strong by brace bolts. The whole is very compact and occupies but little room: The Essex Gazette thinks this engine far tuperiorjto any other, on account ot i ts safety, its economy in the consumption ot fuel, and the space which it occupies. This
engine is of twenty horse power, and con

We have done with this sickening catalogue. You have now a brief summary of the evidence, on the authority ol which we rcgaid gen. Jackson as wholly disqualified for the presidency, and lock to the prospect of his election with the most gloomy forebodings. - You think perhaps, wc pay a poor compli ment to the viitucs ot our people, and the strength of our institutions by indulging in apprehensions of danger from the encroach ments of military power, in the you: h and vi gor of our republic, and in the midst of piofound peace. Wc should, indeed, do gieat injustice to the virtue of our people, the circumstances of our countiy, and the v.ilue ol our government, if we indulged in the idle fear, that an open attack upon our liberties, made with any military force which gen. J could probably command in the course of his administration would brin us under the yoke of his power. These are not our apprehensions ; we would bid a proud defiance to his power, if he should so daie our liberties. Xoi will we do him the injustice to charge his ambition with any designs at present, on the li bertiesof his country, nor withhold our acknowledgment, that if they were assailed bv others, we believe he would promptlv iiiul

A foreign war may come, may rage with violence, and find general Jackson at the head of the ciTil government, and commander-in-chief of the land and naval forces. Dissentient view s among the states may arise, controversies grow up between the state and federal authorities, as disscntions and controversies have hitherto arisen, and who then, we pray you. can answer for the consequence of that spiiit, "which-said to governor Rabun, when I am in in the field, you have no authority to issue a military order ?
