TRIAL OP THE WARRIOR.

This ship, the first afloat of England's iron-clad
navy, made her official trial of speed at the measured
mile in Stokes-bay, near Portsmouth, yesterday, in
charge of Captain Broadhead, commanding the
steam reserve at the port, and under the supervision
of Mr. Lloyd, engineer-in-chief to the Admiralty ;
Messrs. Murray and Miller, heads of the engineer-
ing department of the dockyard • and Mr. Eames,
acting inspector afloat. Messrs. Matthew and Holli-
day represented the builders of the machinery,
Messrs. Penn and Sons. Sir John Pakington arrived
at Portsmouth the previous night in order to be
present at the trial of the ship, for the construction
of which he had given the order when in office, since
which time he has always displayed the deepest
interest in her progress up to her triumphant suc-
cess of yesterday—a success unparalleled in the
history of steamships of war as regards their rate
of speed at the measured mile. Among the visitors
on board during the trial were Mr. Isaac Watts,
the designer of the ship, and Chief-Constructor of
the Navy ; Admiral H. Collier ; Mr. Peter Rolt and
Captain Ford, of the Thames Iron Shipbuilding
Company ; Mr. Craddock, master builder of Ports-
mouth Dockyard; Commander Merbert, her Ma-
jesty's ship Excellent ; and other officers. Since
the ship's cruise on Monday her funnels have each
been lengthened six feet to improve the draught of
her furnaces, which during the trial of yesterday
was found to answer most effectually. By tem-
porary up and downcast air-shafts, on plans sug-
gested by Captain Cochrane, the ventilation of the
engine-room and stokeholes had also been improved
to a great extent, on an average in the latter to as
much as 30 degrees less heat,, and by the results of
the temporary experiments of yesterday it is antici-
pated that they may eventually be rendered as
cool as those of any other steamship of the navy. A
great deal remains to be done to remedy this defect
at present, but from the energy which Captain
Cochrane has already displayed in the matter, and
the success which has already attended his efforts,the
subject may be safely left in his hands. The ship
got her anchor and turned ahead from her moorings
at Spithead at 9 30 a.m., and first steamed out to-
wards the Nab Light vessel. Between the two
light-ships, the ship's head was turned round and
laid for the trial ground in Stokes-bay, through
which two runs were made before fairly entering
on the mile, owing to the boilers partially priming.
The first run was entered upon at 58 min. 22 sec.
past 10, the engines at the time making 55 revolu-
tions. The distance was run, with the tide, in 3
min. 38 sec., which gave the ship a speed of 16.514
knots. On the second mile the revolutions of the
engines were 54; the time 4 min. 57 sec., against
the tide, and the speed in knots 12.121. The revo-
lutions of the engines on the third run were 541,
time of the run 3 min. 38 sec., the same as the first
run, and speed also the same, 16.514 knots. The
fourth run the engines made 53 revolutions, the
time in which the run was made being 4 min. 50
sec.' and the speed of the ship 12.413 knots. On
the fifth run the revolutions of the engines again
reached their maximum point, 55, the time being
3 min. 43 sec., and the speed of the ship 16.142
knots. In the sixth and concluding run, the engines
made 531 revolutions, the time being 4 min. 47 sec.,
and the ship's speed 12.543 knots. These runs give
the following results :—First mean speeds in knots
—14.333, 14.338, 14.463, 14.278, 14.343. Second
Mean speeds-14.338,14.400, 14.370,14.310. True
mean speed—that is, the actual speed attained by
the ship as shown by the results of her six miles'
trial-14.354 knots. The ship had 760 tons of
Nixon's navigation coal on board, of the same quality
as that used on board her Majesty's yacht Victoria
and Albert, and four months' provisions under
hatches, together with all her sea stores, drawing
26ft. Sin. of water aft and 25ft. 6in. forward. The
average pressure of steam was 221 b., the vacuum in
the condensers being 2511 b. The propeller was an
improved Griffiths's, of 24ft. 6in. diameter and 30ft.
pitch.
The temperature in the engine-room
ranged from 82 deg. on the platform to 92 deg.
at the back of the cylinders. In the forward stoke.
hole it ranged from 94 deg. to 109 deg., and
in the after stokehole from 82 deg. to 129 deg.
The indicated horse-power of the engines was
5,560.8. It is almost unnecessary to add here what
has been said several times before, that the engines
worked in a most satisfactory manner, as the speed
gained by the ship yesterday and theaccpouubnitiscwmhi''ne mind
have already been published of their previous
per-
formances will sufficiently satisfy the
on that point. It is almost equally unnecessary, for
feeling
etotalab -
the same reasons, to say that tthheereonwlyas
sen ce of t vibrationo in
that
great
etaht esh
destroyerip,
of our steamships
ap-
proachingof war being the mere beat of the
i screw in its revo-
lutions through the water. As an illustration of this,
the Warrior could fire her 100-pounder guns, for-
ward and aft, when at full speed, with a certainty
of hitting the object fired at if within reasonable
distance, whereas a wooden ship„would fire the same
guns with “ certainty of not hitting the object. In

-------
fact, it would be impossible to say how wide the
shot—from, say, the Duncan's 100 pounder—would
go from the mark fired at when the ship was under
full steaming power. This is, of course, owing to
the great amount of vibration always existing at
the extreme ends of wooden steamships of war, a
vibratory movement which the 'Warrior, most for-
tunately, does not possess. The speed attained by
the Warrior places her at the head of the British
navy in that particular. Previously the Mersey
bore the honours of being the fastest of her Ma-
jesty's ships, but these have now been wrested from
her by her iron sister. The Mersey on her trial at-
tained a • speed of 13.290 knots when in sea trim,
with a 5,308 tens displacement, an indicated horse-
power of engines of 4,044.5, and a nominal horse-
power of 1,000. Comparing with this the 8,800
tons displacement of the Warrior, with only an
additional 250-horse power to assist to drive it
through the water, the results of the Warrior's
trial of yeststday cannot be looked upon other-
wise than as a great and unexampled success,
both in hull and machinery, and full of promise
for a successful future for oar iron ships. The real
trial of the Warrior will, however, be on her
seagoing trial trip. There is a vast difference
between a ship making her experimental runs in a
landlocked position like Stokes-bay and a cruise off
the Western Islands, the latter accompanied by a
moderately rough gale. It has been said, in refer-
ence to these matters, that the world is supposed to
be pretty full of fallacies, but that one of the
greatest is to take the speed of a ship at
the measured mile as the speed of the ship during
her future career. Like the favourite for the
Derby, the ship on the morning of the race is in
the finest condition, and, admirably jockeyed, goes
a tremendous pace for a time, but can no more
continue the pace for any great length of time than
the horse could keep up his speed to St. Paul's after
having won the blue riband of the turf. This is
quite true, but still valuable comparative results
are gained by the Admiralty from these trials, and
by the same results we can place the Warrior as
immeasurably the swiftest and steadiest of her
Majesty's ships. The weather was exceedingly
favourable for the trial, a 'nice breeze prevailing
from the north-east, furnishing a good draught to
the ship's fires, and being off the land gave smooth
water along the ship's course. The coals used are
from the Aberdare pits, " Nixon's navigation coal,".
from the upper four foot seam, and which, as we
have already stated, have been used on board her
Majesty's yacht and very highly reported upon by
Capt. Denman. From experiments carried out in
Portsmouth yard it has been found that this descrip-
tion of coal possesses 20 per cent. greater power
than the ordinary Welsh coals. The trim of the
Warrior yesterday was 12 inches more by the stern
than it was on Monday last, and it appeared to have
a very beneficial effect upon her when at full steam,
the volume of water under her bows being much,
diminished yesterday, and the immense rush of
water over her screw, which prevailed on her trial
outside the Wight, towards her after body, being
also sensibly lessened. At the conclusion of the trial
Capt. Cochrane entertained Sir John Pakington and
his other guests to luncheon. After " The Queen"
and the usual loyal toasts had been given and
duly honoured, Captain Cochrane proposed " The
Health of Sir John Pakington, and Success to
the Warrior." Sir John, in replying, said that it
was one of the most gratifying days of his life. He
had been anxious to see the Warrior in her seagoing
condition, and what he had seen that day had far
exceeded his warmest expectations. He begged to
congratulate Captain Cochrane upon the great suc-
cess of the day's trial and the triumph of the ship.
He was also glad to be able to congratulate Mr..
Watts, as the designer of the ship, Mr. Lloyd on
the arrangements connected with his most import-
ant department, Mr. Peter Rolt and Capt. Ford,
representing as they did the builders of the ship—
the Thames Iron Ship-building Company, and also
Mr. Matthew who was present on behalf of Messrs.
Penn, the builders of the ship's machinery. He
hoped in the gale of wind which it was understood
the ship was going in search of that she would
acquit herself as creditably as she had that day done.
He and his colleagues had felt great anxiety at the
time in ordering a ship to be built of so novel as
construction, and in proportion to that anxiety
were his pride and gratification on the present one.
sion. Success must depend in a great measure upon
the handsto which the ship was intrusted. The duty
of appointment by a change of Government had
fallen upon his successors, the present Board, but it
was impossible for them to have placed the War-
rior in better hands than in those of Captain Coch-
rane, whose good health he begged to propose.
Captain Cochrane replied in suitable terms, express-
ing the pride he felt in commanding so noble a
vessel. Mr. Peter Rolt, in replying on behalf of
the Thames Iron Ship-building Company, said that
in their construction of the Warrior he trusted they
had satisfied the country, and that the ship by her
doings that day had satisfied the world.
The ship anchored at Spithead shortly before one
p.m., and visitors and officers on board afterwards
returned on shore in the Fire Queen steam tender,

VISIT OF THE PRINCE (L WALES TO
CL UMBER.

WORKSOP, THURSDAY.
His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales arrived
at the station last night, a few minutes before seven
o'clock, from Crewe, via Manchester, accompanied
by Major-General the Hon. R. Bruce and Captain
Grey. He was met by the Duke of Newcastle and
his son (Lord Lincoln), both of whom his Royal
Highness shook cordially by the hand. The Duke
then conducted his Royal guest across the platform.
The vast assemblage present, including the Volun-
teers under the command of Captain Mason, ap-
plauded him heartily, the band of the corps play-
ing the National Anthem. His Royal Highness
was then conducted out of the station by the Duke
to the carriage awaiting to convey him to Clumber.
The Clumber troop of Yeomanry Cavalry were
drawn up, and escorted the Royal party to Clumber.
A large number of persons were congregated out-
side the station, and tEey cheered loudly as the
Prince of Wales was hand into the carriage by the
Duke of Newcastle. The cortege, Without the least
delay, drove away, the people avd the Volunteers
cheering more loudly than before. General Bruce
rode in the carriage with his Royal Highnessal,he
Duke of Newcastle and his son being on horseback
The following nobility and gentry have accepted
the invitation of his Grace to meet his Royal High-
ness :—The Marquis of Hartington, Earl and Coun-
tess Manvers, Earl of Sefton, Lord and Lady Proby,
Lord and Lady Belper, the Right Hon. the Speaker
of the House of Commons and Lady Denison,
Major-General Bruce, Mr. and Mrs. Manners Sut-
ton, Colonel and Mrs. Wright, Lord Edward
Clinton, Captain Grey, Mr. Goldwin Smith, and
Mr. and 'Mrs. Englehurst. We understand that
Lady Lincoln is detained by illness.
In addition to the guests named above, the fol-
lowing nobility and gentry will dine with the
Prince :—Viscount Galway, M.P., and Viscountess
Galway; Lord and Lady Foley, Workshop Manor;
Mr. Foljambe and Viscountess Milton, Osberton-
hall ; the Ladies Clinton, Ranby-house ; Major and
Mrs. Welfit ; Mrs. Bridgeman Simpson, Babworth-
hall ; Mr. and Mrs. Granville Vernon, the Grove ;
Captain and Mrs. Machin ; and the Mayors of
Nottingham, Newark, and Retford.

Accompanied by the noble host and the guests,
his Royal Highness sailed down the noble lake to
Hardwicke. The Prince went over the farm pre-
mises there, and also visited the model village in
course of erection there.
It is not intended, so far as I can learn, that, any
addresses shall be made, and this is confirmed by
the following letter, Which his Grace the Duke of
Newcastle has addressed to the Mayor of
Sheffield:—

behalf of the Prince of Wale
" amCtlhumber, Oct. 15.
sorry to 's'
be obliged to decline, on
the address which by your lettere eeeseeinvteadti
morning it is the wish of the Corporation of Shef-
field to prepare. presentation
" In so doing I cannot say that I have his Royal
Highness's direct authority, and there is not time
to communicate with him, but I am sure that it is
his desire that the visit to Clumber should be con.
siderPd private, and addresses from public bodies
would obviously be inconsistent with that character.
" You may be assured, however, that the propo-
sition of the Corporation shall be duly communi-
cated to his Royal Highness on his arrival here
to-morrow.

" I am, sir, your very obedient servant,
" NEWCASTLE."
The Prince will leave Clumber for Cambridge
about noon on Saturday. During that day the
park will be thrown open to the public.

It appears that the Government of Victoria bays
resolved to issue £250,000 of their guaranteed railway
debentures in the colony, where they have the power to
put out £1,000,000 of the £8,000,000 authorised. This
course seems to have been taken in consequence of the
large supply of money in the Melbourne market seeking
investment, and its effect will probably be, not only to defer
new issues in London, but also to give confidence to exist-

On Sunday, Mr. Robert Jacob, accompanied by
his brot her-in-law, Mr. Walpole, left Tramore. where his
family have been staying, and went to the cliffs during the
storm to witness the play of "the waterspout" during the
hurricane. It is supposed they were swept off the rock by
a wave, as they have not been seen since. Mr. Jacob has
left a widow and two young children. He belonged to the
Society of Friends.
