We hope the accident to the refrigerating machinery on hoard the ship Dunedin at Fort Chalmers will not be allowed to pass unnoted by the gentlemen who are busy with the subject in this district. Snob an accident happening at sea would simply mean the destruction of the whole cargo of meat. Against snob an accident then it behoves the shipper to he specially prepared. The best preparation is twofold. Duplicates of the heavier portions of the machinery, and skilled artisans for the prompt execution of all repairs, must be present on board with the meat In case of accident. Provision of this kind adds to the expense no doubt. Bnt expense is sometimes, as in the ease of a premium of insurance, a wholesome necessity.
