sTEAM BATTERIES FOR HARBoR DEFESCEs.-
Mr.. Charles Elicit Jr., well known for his engin.
sering skill, has published proposition to adopt
steam batteries for harbor defenees. They are to
be strongly built throughout-well fortified at the
bow-divided longitudinally and centrally by Sd
ID partition, reaching from the kelson to the deck
and extending from the stem to the sterr-and
transversely by other partitions separating the
hull into six or eight water-tght compartments
and horizontally by one or more Other partitions
Or floors, of which one shall be tbesow her water
line. They can be constructed and maintained
much cheaper than ordinary pen OF war. For the
first cost of 100 gun ship six or eight floating bat
tsring rams can be constructed, each of which
viii sink that ship IN ten minutes after coming
within the range Of her shot. To man the 100 gun
ship will require from 1000 to 1900 men. To man
the ba.tering ram will require, at the utmost, for
hsrbor defence, 10 or Is hands. To keep the 100
gunuahip afoat will probably cost, including her
depreciation and interest cost, $500 . day
To keep the battering ram afioat will not cost OK
ceeding $50 or 500 day. -

EDITH ALLEN, OR SKETCHES OF LIFE IN WIZ
oISIA-This is new novel from the pen OF VIZ
gilman whose a0mMe de plume is Laurence Ner'tte-
The story is an interesting and the characters
are presented as illustrative of Virginia life. The
plan of the writer is most ccessfu and with some
qualification it may be pronounced one Of the very
best novels of the day. The writer devotes him.
self with little too much pertinacity to the por-
traiture of social ife and therefore the story Is
somewhat overloaded. This defect is pardonabie,
and detracts but little from the interest OF the
book, which is Characterised by decided talent, and
whose portraitures show that they are drawn by
the hand of a man of genius. We commend it to
all lovers of fiction.
A most interesting fact concerning this book is.
that it il no only issued under the auspices OF a
Virginia publisher, but is really printed and bound
In Virginia ]. W. RANDOLPH is the publisher, and
CHAs. H. WYNNE, of this city is the printer The
letter press of this book is not surpassed by that of
any novel Of the day. 1t is admirable, and reflects
the highest credit upon the typographical artni
Virginia. In the present juncture of our national
affairs this additional proof of the ability of the
South to do its own printing, is peculiarly crafty
ing. s.g..sr.,
= The book is for sale by J. w. RANDOLPH.
