SPUNKY YANKEE LIEuTESANT.-

SPUNKY YANKEE LIEurENANT.-
Lieutenant Sheldon, of the U. s. Artil-
lery, strange, iron-hearted man, stood
by his gun at the battle of Lacole Mil
(Canada,) until every man had left it
The enemy seeing his condition, sent a
detachment to take him and the gun;
but he maintained his position until the
column came within pistol shot, when he
touched it off The order to fire had
been given the same instant to the in

semi-circle in the woods, and when the
smoke cleared away only one out of the
whole detachment was left standing on
his feet, and he making rather accelera-
ted tracks for the mill.
Sheldon once refused to take off his
hat in Canadian theatre while the Or
chestra played God save the King when
an English Off ,er reminded him of his
neglect. He made some reply which
led to duel. A friend to Sheldon en-
deavored to dissuade him from fighting,
saying that he ought to apologize for his
conduct, as the established custom, re-
quiring every one to be uncovered when
"God save the King" was played, should
have been respected. Sheldon. however,
was obstinate about it, when his friend
told him that his antagonist never missed
his aim, and he was dead man if he
fought. "Then there will be two dead
men," said Sheldon. They fought, and
the English officer fell dead at the first
fire. Sheldon was also shot through and
through. He, however. fingered on for
some six months, and finally died in Bos-
ton. He retained his almost unnatural
fearlessness and hardihood to the last.

PRoPosrTIoN TO ESTABLISH A LINE
OF NAIL BALLOONS Across THE AT
LANrc.-The Pennsylvania papers state
that Mr.. Wise, the celebrated aeronaut,
intends to petition Congress once more
for the necessary funds to make bal
loon trip from New York to Europe
This gentleman should know what he is
about by this time. He has made, it is
stated, about one hundred balloon as
tensions, and his knowledge of what
silk, gas, and upper currents arc capa-
BILE, should be pretty accurate. He
does not suppose that balloons will ever
play very prominent part in CONNER
cial matters, although he thinks they
would prove an invaluable auxiliary to
our Post Office Department The Eu-
ropean mails, he thinks, could be as
well carried above water as through it
in balloon as in steamship. For less
than one half the money which Congress
gives MIR. Collins, he agrees to put on
line of balloons between the United
States and Europe, that will do the dis
tance in one fourth of the time consum-
ed by the Baltic or Arabia. All Mr..
Wise asks to test his experiment is
sic, 600. With this amount loaned to
him, he would Immediately construct
balloon whose buoyancy would be equal
to one hundred tons. Wises plan is
eminently practical He does not in
tend to fight the winds with steam, as
some of our visionaries do. but to take
advantage of the currents of the winds.
1t would be arise in our Government to
give Mr.. Wise one more chance. The
sum which he asks for it is in nomise ex-
travagant, and if he should succeed, it
will not be long before many others will
do Hkeaeise, and who knows what it NAV

in-chief, .. S. NJ, and were built in
1880, by Merrick & Son, Philadelphia.
She was to be fitted with a propeller by
Mr. Haswell, which was to be placed at
the one side of the centre line. Before
the propeller was put in, Mr.. Stuart
superseded Mr.. Haswell, and got DIFF
ferent propeller placed in her, His
work says that she runs at the rate of
eighteen miles per hour in New York
harbor, but these miles must have been
exceedingly short. The vessel cost
S205, ,593 II, and on the whole is con-
sidored to have done no credit to the
service as vet.
The ":Susqachanna" was launched
from the Philadelphia navy yard in
1850. The engines were designed by
g. W. Copeland, and We're built by
Murray and Hazlehurst, of Baltimore.
Her whole cost was S7l0,4oS co. She
has paddle wheels, but has not matched
the Mississippi.
The "Powhattan'' was built at the
Norfolk navy-yard. and was ready for
sea in 1852. Her machinery was built
BY Mchaffy g. Co.. Norfolk, under the
charge Of Engineer Sewall, from de-
signs by c. H. Haswell, Engineer-in-
chief. This is a large steam frigate, a
fine sailor; and had San Jacinto been
constructed like the Pawhattan, with
paddle wheels, she would no doubt have
done credit to the engineer, who de-
signed the engines. The cost of her
engines and machinery was $383,213
6S.
A "Water Witch the Second'' has
also been built, using the old engines,
but employing Morgan's paddle-wheel,
from designs by Engineer sherwood
These wheels do no credit to our en-
gineering genius; they are more expen-
sive, and are no more effective than the
old fashioned radical kind. Three or
four other steamboats, have to the navy,
been mere tug-boats not worth naming.
Atthe present moment there are only
three efficient steam fiigatcs in cur ma
Wy; and, considering the advancement
and improvements made in our mercan-
Tile steamships, it is disgrace to our
Government. We also assert that we
have not truly respectable steamship in
our navy-one worthy Of our country
Our government engineers have been
peculiarly unfortunate with the propel-
lers which they have built. While the
French and English have very fine, large
and swift propeller ine-of-battlc ships,
We have not propeller frigate worth

tirely BY contract; they pay too much
f'or them One Of the Collins line cost
$3.50, ,035, only $25 627 more than
the Susquehanna, and is about one third

the system, for there are able engineers
in our navy. Where the fault is we
cannot tell. We eau only direct attcn

THE CHINESE TRIAD SOCIETY


The following description Of this So
ciety is given in lecture recently dcliv-
cred at San Francisco by the Rev. VIM.
Speer:-
The lecturer alluded to the Triad So
ciety, which, he said, would possess some
interest to the peop:eo Of this city, from
the fact that chapter OR lodge of this
organization had been formed in this CITY
within the past two weeks, and its mem
bers were all arrested and taken to the
police Office. The Triad Society was
formed in 1864, by five priests, and the
first grand object to which it was devoted
was the suppression OF arebellion. There
were thirty-six oaths administered to
members who joined this society; and
blood, taken from the veins Of members,
was given to new member on taking the
oath. The head of cock was cut off
whenever member joined, to indicate
the fate of any one who should diyulge a
single secret. The main feature of the
Triad Society, however, was mutual pro-
lection to each other, under any and all
circumstances. If member was guilty
Of any crime, no matter how great, the
other members were sworn to spare no
exertions toscreen him from punishment
At present the energies of this organiza-
ton were devoted to the overthrow of the
Tartar dynasty. There was no doubt
that this society had something worthy in
its objects; but there were too many per-
nicious features in it for it to be called a
benevolent society. or one that should be
allowed to exist in any community. At
Singapore, in March, 1916, serious riot
was gotten up by this society which was
put down by force of arms. In 1s45,
Sir John Davis, the Governor of Hong
kong, issued an edict, in which he stated
that the existence Of this society was a
detriment to any well disposed and Or
derby community ,and the Governor called
for the cooperation of all in suppressing
it; its existence could not be tolerated in
the dominions Of Victoria.
The lecturer saidthat all the Cinnamon
with whom he had conversed in this city
had expressed their qualification that the
organization in this city had been arrested
in its incipicnt stage; as Cinnamon not
belonging to this society are in fear Of
those who do, believing that members
club togetherfor the commission ofcrime,
or to accomplish any design which the
evil disposed may entertain. tits believ-
ed that members would secretly plan the
death of enemies, and carry their plan
into effect whenever they saw ft 1t
might possibly be true, the lecturer said, ,
that this society exercised a very import
ant part in the insurrectionary movement
now going on in China; but for his part,
he believed that a higher and holier pow
er was at work, scattering good seeds,
from which should spring up Christianity
and higher civilization.

INSTANCES OF LoNGEvITY.-A new
work, in press by Ticknor, Reed &
Fields, mentions several instances Of
extraordinary longevity. They occur
mostly in humble life. The most re-
markable case is that of Henry jenkins.
a Yorkshireman, who died in 1870, at
the age of 1863, He could remember
the battle of Flodden field, which took
place in 1913; when he was but twelve
years old The celebrated Thomas Parr,
who died in 1855, at the age of l52,
had lived under nine kings of England.
He married second wife when above
12O years of age, and for ten years after
was accustomed to do his usual work.
and even to thresh. PARIS great grand
son died at Cork, few years since, at
the age of lO3. A Dane, named Draak
cnburg, after life of vicissitudes, fifteen
years of which were passed as slave in
Turkey, died in the year l772, in the
l46th year of his age. Fifteen years
before his death he fell in love with
young country girl, who very promptly
rejected his proposal; meeting with like
want of success in other quarters, he
made up his mind to continue single
The last case mentioned is that of J.
Effingham, who died in Cornwall in the
l44th year of his age. He had served
long as laborer and corporal, and was
present at the battle of Hockstedt. Af-
ter retiring from the service he return
ed to his native place, and worked as a
day laborer till the day of his death.
