LAKE SUPERIOR.

A friend who has just come from Lake Superior,
informs us that the number of adventures there
is very numerous, and every hour increasing
The land near Fort Wilkins, as we'll as that about
the Government House, is white with tents, and
it is said you cannot shoot rifle in the woods,
without hazarding the life of an explorer -
They are all in high health and spirits and the
whole scene is represented 10 be one of great lie
and vivacity.
Our friend describes Lake Superior as being
delightfully."- cool and salubrious more so than
that OF any OF the celebrated watering places on
the Atlantic. He also says, that among the per-
sons now in the mineral region are good many
intelligent and scientific gentlemen, whose re-
searches cannot fail to ascertain many interesting
facts in regard to the presence of valuable ores in
that country amongst them he saw Prof Du-
catel, OF Baltimore, Dr. Jackson, OF Boston, Ma.
jor Moreld, OF New York, Mr. Shepherd, OF New
Haven-and several others. 1T was said, and
generally believed, that strong evidences of gold
had presented themselves in region not hitherto
visited, and good deal of interest was created
by the facts discovered.-.W. X. ErpresS.

THE CHEAT BRITAIN STEAMSHIP.

THE CHEAT BRITAIN STEAMSHIP.
5000 Tons Burthen-l000 Horse POo0er
The Liverpool Standard says;
This splendid lion ship-the largest vessel, we
believe in the world-was launched, or rather
floated off from the dock at Bristol in which she
was built, on the 10Th of July, 1913, in the i'm
mediate presence of Prince Albert and large
concourse of nobemen and gentlemen, and fam-
lies of the first distinction from nearly every
quarter of the kingdom, as well as many thou
sands OF spectators.
The following are the dimensions of the ship:
Length of keel 2SS feet.
g fgure-h head to taffrai 1922 &c
Extreme width 81 sc
Depth of hold from upper or spar deck32 IL
Burthen, by old measurement, about 3443 tons
Power, engines, 500 horse each 1000
Boiler (square) "a feet by % in height
Furnaces, 24-l2 forward and BAIT
Stroke of Piston feet
Displacement of water when drawing
about l6 feet Cor loaded) about 5000 tons.
Stowage for coal HOO &C
&c goods additional about 1900 &c
Will accommodate about $50 passengers.
And dining accommodation for $50 passengers.
Crew and tiremen $50 persons.
The vessel is entirely built of iron, with the
exception of the boarding of her decks and some
of her cabin fittings and carved work.
The hull is formed of iron plates, decreasing in
thickness from the keel upwards, and angle iron
ribs Of great strength. The plates of her keel are
from 34 inch thick in the middle, to l inch at the
ends, and all the plates under water from
5-Sths to 1-2 inch at the top, except the upper
plate, which is 5-8ths Her rig is that of what
may be called sx-masted schooner, with fore
and aft sails, and lugger topsails, with the excep
ton of the mainmast, the second from the bow,)
which will carry square mansail and topsa
over it. She has four decks, and the upper, or
spar deck, is 3O8 feet in length. The engines
are somewhat on the patent of Sir Mark Brunei
with the cylinders, in place of being upright
standing on an angle of about 60 degrees. The
main shaft for the turning of the screw, and
which is of grea- length and large diameter, was
made at the Mersey Iron Works, in Liverpool !;
and is itself great curiosity.

Destructive FIRE,-HOrri6Ie Murders =
An extra from the office of the Xenia (Ohio) JEFF
tersonian OF the Sd inst states that at O'Clock
on that morning, the extensive store room of
Puterbaugh and Allison was discovered on fire.
Their enrre stock OF goods, probably to the
value OF ten thousand dollars, were destroyed
The most deplorable part of the calamity
was the loss OF two estimable young men, James
Kenny and William Steele, clerks who slept in
the store. When the flames were discovered and
the door burst open, Mr. Kenny was found living
against the front door, senseless, cut and bruised
to considerable extent He was conveyed TO a
dwelling not far off, where he breathed Ills last.
without being able to give any information how
the fire commenced Mr. Seele was discovered
lying in bed, probably senseless, but could not be
rescued In consequence OF the flames. His BODY
was afterwards discovered in the cellar, where Il
mad fallen through. The back door OF the store
room was standing open, from which it is pretty
conclusive, that most foul murder has been com.
mitted and the store set on fire.
a considerable quantity of goods were found
about hall mile from town, which had been
taken from the store. II Is not known that the
robbers obtained any money. The entire loss of
property is said to be covered by insurance.
The Cincinnati Commercial Of the 5th instant
states that has been arrested in that CITY on
suspicion OF being one of the murdercrs.
