By an act of the Legislature, passed at the last session, the survey of seventeen different routes for Cjanals was authorised and provided for. The canal commissioners have employed Mr. Geddes, engineer, to explore and survey a number of them. The route of the contempla ted canal to run from Syracuse to the Susque- hannah, has been surveyed,- the execution of ivhich is deemed to he impracticable, by reason of the w'ant of a sufficiency of water to supply the summit level, which is estimated to bo near ly 700 feet higher than the Onoodaga Lake. A coroner*‘s inquest was hdid at Fougfrkeep- sie on the 21st inst. over the bodies of the un fortunate persons whoivere scalded to death on board the steam-boat Constitution', by tbe ex plosion which took place when opposite that village. The master of the hoat,^ (‘Capf. Ricietson,) testified that she was in complete order when she left New-York; that he had receiv ed his instructions from a committee of the pro prietors of the boat to^'egulate the steam' so as not to carry more than about 9 inches; that the capacity of the boiler and machinery was suffi cient to carry 14 inches of steam as well as 9; that he had never since the charge of the boat was committed to him, seen ten inches o f steam on the boiler, and when the boat arrived at Poughkeepsie, it was less than 9 inches high; he had just examined the boiler, and found a sufficiency of water in i t ; that the accident (in his opinion) was not owing to any extraordinary pressure of the steam, hut to a collapse of the furnace, owing to a vacuum produced in it. Several other witnesses (who belonged to the boat,) were examined, whose testimony accord ed with that of the master. The other unfor tunate person who w as scalded, died on board while she was returning to New-York. The following event is so extraordinary, that it will perhaps stagger tho hclicf of some of our read e r s ; but it is supported by the undoubted authority of history. It happened to the cele brated Regulus, when he was in Africa, at the head of a potverful Romm army, in the first Pu nic ^var. It will probably remind the reader of the reports we have had of the sea serpent, on our eastern coast, and as it will confirm the belief of many in the existence of that monster, so on the other hand it may remove the doubts of the in credulous. The narrative is as follows; “ Regu- lus took the city of Clipca, and three hundred castles: Nor did he only fight with men, but also with monsters. When he had pitched his camp at the river Ba^adus, a serpent of won derful magnitude harrassed the Roman army^ he crushed to death many soldiers with hi$ huge mouth: he heat men with the stroke of his tail; and he deprived of lifd not a few by the blowing of his pestilential breath. Neither could he be ir ‘ pierced by the blovrs of weapons, for all darts were easily repelled, as it were, by the coat of mail of his scales. Tt was necessary to hare re course to machines, and warlike engines being brought, he wa? to he ovefthrow’D as a fortified citadel of an enemy. At length he fell, over powered by the weight of the stones; but he infected the river andtheneighhouring country with hi? blood, and forced the Romans to move their camp. Regulus sent the skin of the beast, which measured two hundred and twqnly fect, to Rome. The execution of the three brothers, Thay ers, for the murder of John Love, took place at Buffalo on tho I7th inst It is a matter of some little curiosity that a government, which, like that of England, pr<> fesses to be the champion of Negroes and Indi ans should at this»moment, bo the only 'goyetT jment in the world at war with both. In Africa she is fighting with the AshantCe hegroes, ,and in Hindostan, with the Burmese Indians.
