The Herald says truly that after the occurrence of the accidents on the Lakes ‘strict inspection was loudly and angrily called for.’ That was right. ‘Strict inspection’’ is required. But strict in- spection by the Governmevt Iluspector the “St. aud “Princess ot Wales” have not had; and that is why we think their withdrawal an outrage ov the Company.

So indeed she may ; seeing that she was particularily well built, and that wooden vessels—notably the ** Marco Polo ”— have sailed when they were upwards of thirty years old! That the “St. Law- reice’ and “Princess of Wales” have been running fortwenty years is cer- tainly not a cause why they should be perewptorily ordered to lay up.
