We gather from an English journal that since Mr. Pli:msoll’s labers were crowned by the passage of the British Merchant Shipping Act, 390 ships have been detained and ex- amined fer defects in hull, equipments or machinery. Unwarrantable detention to seme extent might be regarded as unavoidable, with

tration of the Act, and the possibility of un-

reasonable complaints being made, from undue apprehension, from defective knowledge, and from a malicious disposition. But it is won-

derful that so few mistakes have been made.

Five vessels only have been detained impro- perly. Six were found perfectly unseaworthy and 375 unsafe. One hundred and twenty-five were detained for over-loading er improper leading by which their satety was imperilled.
