PEDIGREE.


Ii blood consists in near consanpuinitv n
tram of horses most remarkable for all the
high and desirable qualities in the zoology Of
horses.a simple relation of VictorHugo pedigree
will establish him as equal to any horse of his
day. Victor Hugo was foaled in 1881, andgsired
by Governor Hamilton, dam by Cooks Whnp,
grandamby Galatin, great grandam by impor-
ted Spread Eagle, or CT grandam byE imported
Dlomede. G g grandam by imported Rest
less, Gov. Hamilton by Col. John Thomas
horse, Sir Andrew, he. by Maske, and Mas
que by Diomede. dam Fly. by Bonaparte.
Cooks Whip by imported Whip, and one of
his best sons. The sire OF more fine Lotses
than any in Kentucky of his day. Gallatin
was one of the best race horses of Virginia.
and ran with great success in South Carolina.
and was by Imported Bedford, dam by Mann
brina, out of sister of Majors Sally, Spread
Eagle by Volunteer, dam by Hiehhyer, Do
mede by F or.zel, dam Spectator, Restless BY
Phenomenon, dam Lesang.
twill be seen that in Blood Victor Hugo
has no superior, being of a family celebrated
for its speed and game, and combining all the
best blood of America. His blood, his size.
beauty, his excellent temper, and constitution
all strongly recommended him to the notice
and patronage of our breeders.

SrIENprD LAUNCH OF A WAR STEAMER.-The war
steamer Union, constructed at the Gosport Navy
Yard upon plan to test the experiment of Lieut.
Hunter, L. s. n. was launched yesterday.
II is the opinion of those who competent to
Judge of such matters, that the Union is perfect
piece of workmanship and as beautiful model of
naval architecture as was ever turned out OF Uncle
Sans workshops. This is not saying much in ia
vor of the Union.1 What her speed will be must
depend upon the success of the experiment which
she is intended to test but there every thing about
her TO Justify the belief, that she will equal the
swiftcst boat in the service in that particular. We
have from the first felt lively interest in Lient
Hunters experiment, and we look forward to it,
successful issue with renewed confidence since we
have seen the noble ship which is destined to put it
to the proof
The following are the dimensions of the Union:
Extreme length, lS4 feet 6inchcs: extreme breadth
OF beam at gunwale 80 feet inches; depth of hold
Is feet inches draft when launched 8 feet /; esti
mated draft when fully loaded, Is; and can carry
fuel for thirty days consumption.
The Union will be taken hence next week t9
Washington, where she will receive her engine ana
other equipments for service.
We understand that the frigate ST. Lawrence, on
the stocks at the Gosport Navy Yard, Is 20 DC

WASHINGTON, May Is, 1912.
The Naval appropriation bill was got under way
in the House to-day, but no progress made.
The talk in the city for the last two days has been
confined to two subjects, the defeat of Boston BY
Fashions and the expected duel between Wise and
Stanley. Mr. Stanley left the city night before last,
and is now at near Boston, preparatory to send
ing his challenge, which has not yet been received
by the other party. Mr.. Wise was arrested yes
terday by the Marshal of the District and brought
before magistrate to keep the peace. He was
at the Magistrates office again to-day, to show
cause why he should not be held to bail, and the
matter is to be decided tomorrow. There is ne
thing positive to show he has been challenged, or
that he will be, so he demurs to the charge. Wise
had consultation with Walter Jones to-day about
the matter He says he will rather go to Jail than
offer any bail. All this fuss comes from the anti
duelling law. There is nothing of much interest
stirring. Major Whisker of the army, at the nvi-
taton of the Russian Government, has consented
to enter the Russian engineer service. The colonels
captains and soldiers in this neighborhood are all
to march to the Baltimore encampment
The drum and fife is heard in all directions, and
