The Keera may be looked for on Thursday , next from Southern ports. i The great merit of Captain Peiry's aaticollision dial is now generally recognised,' and he waa justified m the, display of enthusiastic belief in the efficacy of his plan which he made at the meeting of the Royal Society on Monday night. But there is one thing which (Capiajp P,erry cannot do — find a substitute for vigilance. It is quite true that if the commander of the • Sussex ' had had one 6f the dials on board, and had used it intelligently, his ship would not have been wrecked! But it is equally true that if^tbe captain had used ordinary precaution' without a dial the result would have heap the same. , The me ( rit bf Captain Retry 's invention lies in -its being an aid to vigilance, not injsupplying. a-subatitute for ifc. A careless captain will nob be prevented from throwing- *way--his-«hip~no 'm»tior"h<Wex!cellent the &ppliaiic63 s in:l,y;b,ejby which he is ■unrounded?— X&iftboixrno-Leader? - >' *-> !
