It is very odd that while the French and Scotch can contrive to give a delicious breakfast or dinner on shipboard, while the Germans on the Rhine are positively luxurious, and while we know that a steam-boiler offers every convenience for petits plats, the real old English steam-boats of the General Steam Navigation Company never vary from huge joints and skinny chickens, with vegetables plain boiled.
The majority of the writers of fiction who continue to live in the country are women, and possibly not interested in politics; but the chief reason why the romance is seldom written of the Cabinet Minister who started life as a gold-digger or draper's assistant, or of the democratic legislator whose first election was announced to him through a hole in a steam-boiler that he was riveting, is to be found in a belief that it would not be appreciated in the far-off land whither all Australian books must go for the sanction of their existence.
But if there remained any doubt on the mind of any one it was soon removed; for, at that moment a loud explosion was heard in the store-room below like a blank-shot or the bursting of a steam-boiler and, almost simultaneous with the report, a gush of thick vapour, mingled with blue flame, came rushing up the hatchway. It needed no conjuror to explain that report. Every one knew what it meant.
The boiler was not before him; but the idea of a steam-boiler of wood from the lips of the Governor of a custom-house was astounding." The Revisore speaks English tolerably well." Why does the Church systematically discourage Trade? Railways Much needed Church opposes them Could not a man take a journey of twenty or two hundred miles and be a good Catholic?

The massive concrete pile stood in the center of the cellar. A big steam-boiler was coupled to a tiny pipe that led into the heart of the mass of concrete. Arthur was going to force the soapy liquid into the hollow pile by steam. At a signal steam began to hiss in the boiler.
Do you remember that time Chip of the artillery was walking down Nassau Street, and a steam-boiler or something burst under the sidewalk and broke his leg? The first thing old Backbite said when he heard of it was, 'H'm! been drinking, I suppose. Now here's Billings with a despatch. What is it, bully rook?" he hailed, as the adjutant came bounding in.
"Oh, there isn't really very much more to say about the paint itself. But you can use it for almost anything where a paint is wanted, inside or out. It'll prevent decay, and it'll stop it, after it's begun, in tin or iron. You can paint the inside of a cistern or a bath-tub with it, and water won't hurt it; and you can paint a steam-boiler with it, and heat won't.

The officials are all indifferently remunerated, and thus do business for themselves at the cost of the Government. They are also very incapable for the discharge of their duty. For example, the Governor of the custom-house seriously asked me, preparatory to making a declaration for a steam-boiler, whether it was made of wood or of iron.
