The Mechanics Magazine Museum Register Journal And Gazette Volume 15

Excerpt from The Mechanics' Magazine, Museum, Register, Journal, and Gazette, 1831, Vol. 15 Tm: salutary tendency of the arts and sciences is happily no longera matter of dispute; but if it were, the simple fact, that during a time of so much political agitation and excitement as the present, the different Journals through which the votaries of science are in the habit of making their discoveries and speculations known to the world, should manifest an ia crease, instead of any falling off, of itself to confound all scepticism on this to be universally true of the scientific portion of the periodical press of 1831 and know it to be so, in an eminent degree, with respect to the journal under our immediate super intendence of consider ntributions to our pages been more numerous, or of greater value, than during the period of trouble embraced by our present volume; a fact the more remarkable, that the majority of the correspondents of the mechanics, magazine are, as usual, to be found in the busier walks of life, where a concern for private as well as public affairs, might be supposed to operate most injuriously, to the peaceful pursuits of philosophy.

Excerpt from The Mechanics' Magazine, Museum, Register, Journal, and Gazette, Vol. 36: January 1st. June 25th, 1842 We do not wish to institute any invidious comparisons but somethingis due to justice, and there are a few statistical facts con nected with this subject which might form the ground of a curious enquiry. In the first place, the Great Western proprietary might reasonably have expected, without the slightest approach to anything like presump tion, that our own government would feel some interest in the success of an under taking which appeared to have attracted the sympathies of the whole civilised world. When it was understood that the Great Western had finally departed for America the press of Europe was occupied with the sub jcct, and as the time approached for her return, nations stood on tip-toe awaiting the event. We need not dwell on the enthusiasm which seemed to pervade society at large on her successful return: it was like a national congratulation, - the winning of another bat tle of Waterloo, without its horrors. Again and again the experiment was repeated. And always with the same success; and when in the wide world she had not a competitor, and the Government saw the expediency of dis patching our North American mails by steam, what was more to be expected than that it would rejoice to throw in its powerful aid in support of an undertaking which had already earned golden Opinions from all sorts of people ou the contrary, however, not only the Great Western Company obtained an pre ference, but they were not even allowed to carry the mails at less than any other Com pany coohi undertake them; and instead of receiving encouragement from the Govern ment, in premium of a year was ah solutely given for the building of vessels to Oppose them, and as this, it appears, was not enough, a sop of a year has since been added to keep up the spirit of the thing.
