Woesee from unmistakeable data that nine-tentbs of all the steam vessels now building and lately built in Great Britain are iron screw propellers. We have lately scen » “statement of the Chief Kogineer of the Royal Dookyard at Wooiwich, Engiand, in relation to the increased cousumption of fuel in marine engines to obtain increased epeed.” From this we learn that as the speed of a etcamer inorcases the expense increases in almost geometrical proportion. For instance, 9 steamship witha capacity or “displacement” of 5,000 tons, and engines of 52 horse power, can steam six miles an hour, Such # vessel with 200 tons of coal will steam 4,154 miles in teenty- eight days twenty hours, and carry 1,598 tons of freight. Another steamer of the same siae, with cogines of 416 horse power, willran twelve miles an hour, carry 784 tons of freight, and in four- teen days ten hours go a distance of 4,154 milea, and consume 1,200 tons ‘of coal. Another vessel of the same capacity, with engines of 175 horee power, will run nine miles an hour and with 1,200 tonsof coal will steam 7,107 miles; 1.025 tons of freight. When it comes to cighteen milcs an hour, the veesel of 4,000 tons has about attained ite maximum. The hull and engines alone will weigh 2,605 tons. The engines of 1.405 horse power, with 600 tons of coal and 95 tons of freight, will steam in two days and three hours adistance of 922 miles. At nineteen milesan hour, with engines of 1,652 horse power, the ves- sel (of 3,000 tons) can take 150 tons of coal, have room for only 73 tons of freight, and s‘eam in larger veseels, perhaps 9 higher rate of speed could be attained. Now the question that we ask is, are these cal- culations true of the latest inventions and most approved engines, and when applied to the sorew propellers? The data here given probably refer to the paddle wheel more directly than to the screw. It was thought for a long time that ecrow steamers could not be made to run as fast as thore propelled with the paddle. The reason why they have not usually made as good time has beea because of their small eugines—many of them depending largely on their sails. Screw steamers can make as good time ss those with paddle wheels: witness the late run of the Nia- gera, leaving some of the crack steamers of the British ravy hull down in the distance in a fow hours. The monster screw vesecl Himalaya steamed from Halifax, N.S., to Portsmouth, Eng- land, in vine days and afew hours. An extract froma late Edinburg papor—the (oxrun/ now before us, eays:—“ We notice the arrival at Leith ofa handsome new Clyde built screw steamer, named the Holywood, intended for the Rotterdam | trade. She appears to possess considerable capa- city for thestowage of cargo; bas elegant accom- | modations in a cabin on deck for a limited num- | ber of passengers; and, according to a tele- graphic commuvication received by the owners, | has made her first trip to Rotterdam ina mach | shorter time than has ever been doce by any | steamer.” The difference between a screw and paddle steamer is this:—The paddle wheels require a | more costly engine, and the machinery takes up much more room. A paddle wheel steamer can ging and spars, when the sails are furled, take | so much wind that it is doubtful if sails are, in the leng rua, of any advantage. Then, in a fresh breeze, the steamer careens so much that often one paddle is almost or quite out of the | water, while the other is submerged to an extent grating process of pre” — he will be curried into a war with somebody be- | fore be knows it. We have yet to get the rebound from urope of this revulsion—the woret has not yet come. Politics will change all over the world, and old disputes, old issues, old political questions everywhere, will be over- ughed a# they have been in this country. We hall need «a war to start the life currents of the body politic and to clear the at- mosphere.

The screw, NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1857. must be confessed that the President has exhibit- ed a remarkable degree of amiability. Mr. Dougias cays “that any appointments you may make, or persons you may retain in eflice-- no matter how rear and dear they may be to me —imust not be considered aa any compensation for the omission to appoint such democrats as I, in common with the rest of the (Llinois) delega- tion, have or may recommend.” For the sake of the King’s Englieh, Mr. Dougias should have said “have recommended, or may recommend;” but, aside from that, we must say that we are aston- ished at the mildneas of the President's reply to this diegraceful example of Senatorial dictation. The right of making his execative appointments belongs exclusively to the President. Mr. Sona- tor Dougias has no right to dictate in the matter tall. If he had understood the propricties of his poeition he would not have interfered in any way, in reference to the official promotion of Mr. Cutts. As it is, Mr. Douglas demands that the democracy of Illinois shall have their fall share of the plunder, and that the family relations of Mr. Doug!as appointed to office shall be so much in the way of extra allowance. Mr. Douglas bas romething of the reputation of astatesman; he is generally conceded to be one of the leading minds, and one of the leadiag debaters of the United Siates Senate; but here he descends from the pusition of a statesman and of a Senator to the dirty work of parcelling out the epoils according to the lowest standard of the demoralized spoilamen of Tammany Hall in its worst days. The same ideas which would control a equad of election bruisers in a meeting at the Pewter Mug—this office for Tom, this for Dick, and this for Harry—ap- pear to be with Mr. Douglas the crown. ing dutice of a democratic administration, He seems, in this matter, to have no moral sense— no conception of the official fitness of things as between a member of Congress and the Presi- dent of the United States. On the contrary, Mr. Douglas, in this aforesaid offensive letter, re- gards Mr. Buchanan simply as the dispenser of the spoils to the victors, as the democratic mem- bers of the Congressional delegation of cach State may be pleased to order. According to | this rule Mr. Douglas would be President, aa far as the Illinois appointments are concerned; and thus, from State to State, Mr. Buchanaa would be reduced to the mere boot blaok of this or that member of Congress. We would admonish Mr. Dougtas that if he ex- pects, eight, ten or twenty years hence, to reach the position now so honorably filled by Mr. Buchanan, he must abandon this small business of the peddling rpoileman, and devote himself to his legitimate duties as a statesman and a Sena- tor. A man asa mere spoilsman may possibly get to the Senate; but the experiment of John ‘Tyler bas proved that eomething more than the spoils ere required for the Presidency. THE LATEST NEWS.
