NEW. YORK HERALD w York, Monday, September 14, 1846, | Amertoan Ship Ballding—Steam and Packet Ships, We have on several occasions adverted to the great increase of our commercial marine, and the growing prosperity of the Umted States, in com- ynerce, artsand manufactures. When we consider that within the short period ef seventy years, the ordinary duration of human life, the thirteen American colonies of Great Britain, have emerg- ed from a stae of vassalage, to be the second power in the world instren.th, physical and mo- ral, and have increased in inhabitants from the insignificant nurnbers of three millions to twenty, have extended the benefit of their glorious insti- tutions to the westernmost part of this great conti- nent, it must be evident that elements of enter- prise, that lay dormant while we were colonists, have been developed and found vent under the beneficent influences of our republican instim- tions. In no respect are the results ofthe develope- ment of this new spirit more apparent than in the effect it has had uy on o1r commercial marine. This branch of the inechanic arts offered a wide field for the ingenuity and enterpnse of ovr peo- ple; and the manner in which it has been follow- ed up, may be gathered from the fact that for twe ears pastour mechanics and ship builders have annually produced a number of vessels, which for beauty of model, speed in sailing, and accommodation of passengers have no parallel, and are the objects of admiration and praise in all parts ofthe world. The birth of this enterprise may be dated as far back as twenty-six years, when a line of packets was establishei between | this port and Liverpool, composed of vessels of three and four hundred tons burthen. When these vessels were puton the route, they drew forth the praise of even the English people, who were our bitterest enemies, as well as of foreigners of every nation and every clime. The American people then, and for the first time, we may say, were looked upon as superior to the race our transatlantic opponents had painted us; and from that period we may date the change in opinion abroad, that has taken place concerning the Unit- ed States and our institutions. Our progress since, in this and in other respects, has been rapid and steady. From three and four hundred tons burden, our ships have increased to | athousand, and twelve, and fourteen hundred | Ri, tons; while their speed and safety have keptypace with their dimensions. From a single line to Liver- pool, they have multiplied into six lines; and, in- | stead of plying between New York and Liver- pool only, we have packet lines between all the | principal sea-ports in the United States and those of Europe. It may be interesting to publish the names of all the packet ships at presentowned in New York, and which ply to Europe, their tonnage and days of sailing :— Liverpool Packets, saiLine pars—Ist, Orv, LTH, 16rn, 2st, aNp 26TH oF EACH MON Ships Captains.

While we write on this subject, it may be well to state that a variety of ships and other kinds of vessels are in process ofbeing built, which, when finished, will make a considerable addition to our commercial marine. ‘The following is a list of them :— VESSELS ON THE STOCKS IN THIS PORT. Bisior & Simons have a steamship on the stocks for a | Spanish house, and intended to run between Hava and another port in Cuba. She is to be 350 tons burthen. ‘They are also about to lay the keel of a steamer for the Hudson river. of 300 feet in length. | Situ & Dimov have a beautiful cli ship, f for the China et hold, for Messrs. | Capt.

Her dimensions are 1,400 tons government measurement, 190 feet on deck, and will draw two { more water than Capt. Skiddy’s ship, the New World. She will not go on the line until next February. They have also very fine nearly completed, of n, for Mr, Nelson’s line of New Orloans rincipally and will be com- late of the Sultana. ndid ship, of 1,000 tons, for Messrs, Fox & Livingston's line of Havre packets, to be commanded by Capt. Wotton ot the Burgundy: She | i it almost upon the same model of the Bavaria, and be ready to launch in six weeks. Mr. W. is also building av of the same propor. tions, for Messrs. Grinnell & Minturn’s line of London packets, which willbe ready to take her place in the jine in the course of two months, under Capt. D. Chad. wick, the present commander of the Wellington. — At this yard, is also the splendid Bavaria, receiving all her furniture ‘and equipments, before being taken toher dock. W. H. Brown is building a steamship of 900 tons for Mr. Morgan, designed to run between New Orleans and Galveston ‘Also, @ fine steamer, 280 feet long, for the Hudson ver. In this yard there are also two immense river barges, almost finished In Westeavenr & McKay's yard is the steamship for the New York, Cowes and Bremen line o rs, the | first under the contract between the government | i Mr. Mills. Fine progress is ing in this ocean steamer, and the keel, ee and some of the frames are now up. She is to be 1760 tons burthen, 240 feet on the upper deck; the depth of the hold, from the upper deck, will be 31 feet 9 inches; she will have three flush decks. The engines are to be 1,000 horse power each—a double marine, with a 72 inch pris, and 10 | feet stroke. She will be called the Washington, Capt. | Hewitt, agraduate of West Point, but better known as the commander of the Havre packet ship Utica, will command her. According to contract she is to be ready | to take her place in the line on the 1st of March. | In the course of the next month, the contract for the | construction of the second vessel of the same class, and | for the same line, will be completed, and the vessel to be | read: gee bee ensuing summer. | so on the stocks, in this yard, and nearly | ready to launch, a beautiful ship of 950'tons, to be called | the American Eagle, under command of Capt. J. M. Chad- | wick. late of the Mediator. She is designed expressly as | a packet in Mr. John Griswold’s line of London packets. Cot.vens have a beautifulschooner, called the Robert | L Stevens, of 205 tons burthen, on the stocks. Three | others have just been launched, called the C. Vanderbilt, of 190 tons; Undine, of 130 tons; and the Blanche Sayre, of 270 tons. Pentre, Patterson & Stack are building a fine schoon- er of 200 tons. The above lists comprise sailing and steam ves- sels. ltis only within a short time that the gov- ernment of the United States entered into a con- tract with an enterprising company in this city for the construction of a number of steam ships, | to ply between this city and Cowes and Bremen. | This company are bound to send a vessel twice in each month to these ports, and to carry the | United States mail, for which they will receive $400,000 per annnm. These vessels are to be constructed in a substantial manner, with a view of being turned into vessels of war, if need- ed for that purpose by the government. The steamship, building at.Messrs. Westervelt & McKay’s yard, atthe foot of Seventh street, is for this line, and 1s to be named the Washington, and to be commanded by Capt. Hewitt. She | will be one of the strongest shipsever built in this country. Her engines building at the Novelty Iron Works, by Messrs. Sullman, Allen & Co. are to be the regular side lever marine engines, of 2000 horse powereach. In point of workman- ship, strength of material, and beauty of finish, that house stands pledged to produce a specimen | of American engine work that shall be equai to | that of any other country. It is thought that the government have made a wise selection in this mail route, and that it will | eventually more than reimburse them for the enormous sum of $400,000, which they pay for the conveyance of the mails, The vessels composing this line will form the nucleus ofa steam marine, which will compete in i number, durability, speed, and accommodation, | with any now afloat. Other companies will, no doubt, soon be established that will include ves- sels plying to other ports in Enrope, and also be- tween the different sea ports in the United States. | Indeed, already there has been a line formed | that will ply between here and Charleston, S C., the first vessel of which made an experimen- | tal trip a few days since, and gave the greatest satisfaction. It will be seen, therefore, that our commercial, steam, and sail marine is increasing, and keep- | | ing pace with the mighty bounds the United | | ther with the above mentioned frauds, t | as Tyler’s nose.

So itis in the excommunica- | tion of Slamm Bang & Co, The company of that famous firm simply state his compact, and its violation, in connection with the fact that the re- | cusant has been spending considerable spare | time in Washington ; and here we might ask, with the Duke of Gloster, “What does the Major in the South ‘When he should join our forces in the North 7” The fact is, he was managing for A No. 1—the administration—and against Governor Wright for | the gubernatorial, and prospectively, the Presiden- tial succession. This gives to the matter a deci- dedly uncomfortable complexion. The case stands out just as prominently, and abont as thin, thin case. There is no love lost, as we all know, between the administration, on the one part, and our Go- vernor and the philosopher of Lindenwold on the other. The Baltimore Convention “sticks in the craw” of our Orestes and Pylades, like a hair ball in the stomach of an ox, and no dissolvents have enabled them to digest it. We will suppose that Slamm Bang, out of the most unmitigated patriotism, has been employing his leisure at Washington in counselling the ad- ministration; and that the administration, in- | cluding Mr. Secretary Marcy and Mr. Secretary* | Walker, are opposed to the re-nomination of Go- | vernor Wright, because it might promote hi chances for the Presidential ticket of ’48. Now, | as John Randolph, urged upon Mr. Clay, we only | want you to suppose this case; and that the ex communicated editor in his zeal to serve the pow- | ersat Washington, was unfortunate enough to | forget concurrent associations. It is supposed ‘that the administration would | prefer Mr. Dickinson, an old Hunker, for the nomination, to Gov. Wright, a Barn Burner; and in the event of success in laying the Governor out in the shades of retiracy, particularly if this were followed up with the nomination of the Secretary of the Treasury as the rightful heir to Ogle’s Elip- tical Saloon, there is no calculating the extent of the perquisites to all concerned in the enterprise, Thus far, though we are pained to confess, in | exceeding tribulation of spirit, the movement runs behind the wind—it is intercepted, and the jig’s | up. The refractory firm of Slamm Bang & Co., | are out, and the Governor rides over the old Hunkers in triumph. Theatricals.

Lorrerres and Lorreny Fravps.—We have been shown a bill by a gentleman who has re- ‘ cently been ona visit to Wilmington, Delaware, which he intends laying before the legislature of that State at its next session, contain- ing some of the most glaring frauds that could be practised in this disgraceful busi- ness. We hope and trnst for the good of our own city and State, as well as the State of Delaware, the Legislature ef Delawase will take hold of this matter, and if the statements | and charges contained in this bill are true, which we are assured are strictly so, they will at once | annul these lottery grants by which so much mo- ney is wrung from the hard earnings of the poor, and has already brought so much disgrace and ruin on many young men, a consequence which | inevitably follows all who practise this species of gambling. | Several instances are within our recollection, | where young men have, at various times, pilfor- ed from their employers large sums of money, in | order to purchase lottery tickets.

The dedication service was preached by the Rev. Jacob Broadhead, D. D., of Brooklyn, and was delivered with un impressiv solemnity, eminently worthy ef the divine and casion—taking his iext from the 2nd Chronicles, 2nd chapter and 16th verse. In the opening of his discourse, he said that the words of the gospel were the words ad- e occa. dressed by the Lord to David, and was acommand given — him to commence the contributions which w: the work, and in that place, and within the walls of that edifice, Jehovah was worshipped. But that house had leng since gone to decay. They were there to dedicate a new house to the worship of God. God would approve of their worship and the building of these churches. ‘This wor- a plain matter, and concerning the principle id be no difference of opinion. God required public worship, a8 well as private worship, and he sanc- tioned the building of s In ancient days, temples wore also erectod for the wor- ship of the Creator.

ATTEMPT TO ROB AND MURDER AT LancasTER.— | A desperate attempt ade to rob and murder Mr. Symmes,the Cashier of the Bank at Lancaster, in this State, about two o’clock yesterday morning. A man named Otto Sutor, a German, well known to the Cashier and his family, and who had often been relieved by them, came tothe house on Thursday evening, in a destitute situation, and a lodging was Destowed a nm | him. Before he retired, a person came in, who gave Mr. | Symmes $100 to take up a note. Sutorentered sleep- | ing room of Mr. and Mrs. OAS 1s about 2 o'clock in the | morning, demanded the $100 which he had seen paid to the Cashier, and made an attack upon him with a razor. A desperate struggle ensued—the robber is a stout man, while Mr. and Mrs. Symmes are both very feeble in Kereta? rane are two of Sutor’s fingers within his teeth, bit them until blood flowed there- from, and he and his wife were considerably wounded in the scuffle. The robber guarded the door the whole timo, so that neither should escape togive the alarm. After a contest of fifteen or twenty minutes, a y Was sound- ed, and Mr. Symi offered to the r, if he would desist, his assurance that he would not divulge the cir- cumstances of the case, or expose his name. This was agreed to, and Sutor left, after swearing the Cashier to The circumstances were so flagrant, however, were detailed to Directors of the Bank, and ra reward of $500 for the apprehension of the Sutor has been employed this summer ata paper Pepperell. He came from New York to that villain, mill in neighborhood, and is said to be twenty-one years of age, five feet six inches in height, stout built, square shoul: ders, round flurid face, and sunburnt, with light hair and eyes.

Although she very imprude:.tly iwilbwed the example of several others in stooping under the bar before the boat was made fast to the dock. The company must not think to clear themselves by her negligence. There was a large lamp on the other side, while on this side there was only one small one at each of the fast- nings, which Scarcely showed any light ; the large one, whieh I have seen there sometimes, was not to b6 seen, although the night wss very dark. I heard several remark, at the time, that it was difficult to see when coming out of the cabin. It appearsto me that when there are so many per- sons who cannot see the danger until it is poiated out to them, there should be a transparency to caution thin, as there is at the Brooklyn Ferry, or sometying else to warn them. Tcannot think the exberbitant company think as much of the safewy of passengers as they do of the sixpenees to pitcir pockets.

The banks are discounting every piece of first rate paper offered, and loans on stock collateral are freely made at five and | six per cent. In the midst of this abundanee there is no _ | Npward movement in the stock market, and there appears — to be no particular demand for money from the commer- cial classes. Unless something soon turns upto give em ployment to the i le capital, it must go about the stree, begging for customers. It is very strange that the present abundance of money, 50 easily obtained, and at such reduced rates of interest, has not created a speculative movement to some extent in fancy stocks, when there is such a wide margin for an improvement in nearly all the railroad securities, and so many of the brokers in the street almost starving for the ‘want of business. A rise of three or five per cent in the principal fancies would wake up the outsiders, and bring them into the street by the dozens. These speculators | only make their appearance upon a rising market, and, ax 8 general thing. operate more extensively attip top pri ces, than when every thing is at the lowest notch. There must be a speculation soon, and the present holders of stocks will reap the benefit of it. Most of the really good fancy stocks are well held, that is by parties able and dis- | posed to hold them for an advance. We allude particu- | larly to Norwich and Worcester, and Harlem, the best two fancies on the list. ‘Tho first is beld in large lott, and at high prices, at the Eastward, and will not come | Upon the market unless an advance to some extent is re alized.
