The Steamer Washington.-This noble YES.
sci sails on Thursday, the 23d instant. on her
second trip to Southampton and Bremen She
has undergone several alterations and i'm.
provements, and, from the new trial trip made
on the 18th instant, it is believed that every
difficulty in the way of her speed is obviatei
AS a model, and for her general finish, the
Washington has no superior, if any equal
afoat We are still confident, with good coaI
and proper management, that she will be able
to make the trip to Europe in ten days We
trust, at any rate, that Captain Hewett will
have a chance to boast this time of having
made the quickest transatlantic voyage on re-
cord, and that the Washington may vindcate
her illustrious name We notice, by our laie
European files, that the United States mail line

on the shores OF the Elbe to the desire Of n.

provided the Danish government will furnish
the other half, which the latter government, it
is said, is ready to do. The Hamburghers cor.

horsemen are determined 10 be even with then
neighbors.
1t is more than probable that within five
years three lines of mail steamers will be ply.

Funerci Obseqries Of OConneH-The flu
neral ohsequies in honor of the late Daniel o.
Cornell, took place in New York on Wednes-
day, and were of very imposing character
Elk Governor Seward delivered an eloquent
eulogv on the occasion. The Express says
"The Irish inhabitants of the city seem to
have generally turned out on the occasion -
The procession was formed in the second av-
enue, and extended from ST. Marks Church
down to Houston street; but instead of start
ing at 9 O'Clock, it did not move until nearly
II. The line of march was 20 extend around
Union Square, down Broadway to Grand ST.,
through that street, and then down the Bow
cry to Chatham, into Broadway, and thence
through Fulton and Greenwich SITS, to the
Battery and Castle Garden. Thos. O'Connor
officiated on the occasion as Grand Marshal,
and General Henry Storms as Deputy Grand
Marshal. The several marshals and aids were
mounted on handsome horses, dectzed out with
sable trappings, while the riders themselves
were dressed in mourning"
The funeral car, which was made by Mr.
John George Taylor, presented an elegant APP
pearance. 1t was sixteen feet wide, by eight
anu az the height, from the bottom draprey to
Tue platform, was four feet, and 20 the frame
uldPery' eight feet. 1t was drawn by twelve
ioisee' richly caparisoned with plumes and sa-
bic cloths and yelvets. The coffin was COW.

FRANKFORT ON THE MAIN, cath Aug 1917
We have heard of the safe retnrn %

been found advisable before she resnmo nave
trips to Bremen. Of the success of the Stsn her

the sooner the four steamers can be compI.aII

Germany as national one, due to the -, III

whose importance has thus received a rsbc
acknowledgement from the Governmannu,0 ilc

competition already exists. "Aeie
In 1916 the Havre packets brought " w..
York 36,432 packets of measured goods y,
which there were 1868 of French and o,o NJ
of foreign orgin-the latter being Swiss ~
German goods, sent via Havre on accom- ~

goods will be sent in preference via Brem.u

to Havre requires Il days al cost of IS franca
per 100 kilo. The same saving, if not mora
exists on goods from Elberfeld and the Rhrn
ish manufacturing districts generally. Il !.
therefore natural that all such goods will coms
to New York in future by the Bremen line NJ

Scupperaong Grapes.-The North Carroll
mans have discovered in their State a grape of
peculiar qualities, to which they give the name
at the head of this article, taken from the To-
cality where they were found in wild state.
The vines grow with wonderful luxuriance,
and produce abundantly large green fruit,
hanging in clusters composed of three or four
grapes each, but possessing very fine flavor
The Carolinians are civiIizing the vine, and
making wine from it, OF excellent quality. A
friend has given us a few of the grapes, which
any one can examine at our office.

Early Frost.-A correspondent informs US
that severe frosts prevailed in the Northern
and Northwestern sections of Massachusetts
on Wednesday and Thursday nights Of last
week, arresting the growth of potatoes, corn,
and vegetation generally. Potatoes, however,
were SO nearly matured, as to receive but lit
tie injury. Corn was less fortunate In some
localities, much of it is only fit for fodder.
The potato disease has made its appearance
in many places, but as yet has not a. sumed a
very malignant character-Ibid.
