VOL. XIII.................NO. IG

These are small details, but they make up
tho vitality of trade; and if we wish to
build up prosperous shipping marts, and i'll
fuse active vigor into the producers Of our
staples for expectation, we must not neglect
the particular requirements of trade. We
have not mentioned rice and sea island cot
ton for be it said to the great credit Of tie pro-
ducers Of these articles, that upon no other
crops. nor in any other part of tho world,
is so much attention paid, as is bestowed
upon their proper preparation for market.
The ayidity with which these products ar.
taken up by our shippers, shows that care
ful attention and labor will always DO most
satisfactorily remuncrated; and when the
producers Of short staple cotton and flour
bestow the same attention on these pro-
ducts, they will find, too, that proper pre-
paration will inurc more to their interest
even than the production of enormous crops
badly handled.
We would rejoice to see tho newspapers
of the country take up this subject, and not
let it rest until the proper reformation in
the particulars mentioned is effected.

The Favorite Namc.-Mary surpasses all
other names in universally; it belongs not
only 10 women throughout all Chris.endom,
but even to men who bear it as a second
name. Thus, for instance the Queen of
spain's name is Mary, her husbands name
is Mary, her mothers name is Mary; and
even her sisters name is Mary; her uncle
and all her cousins are Marys, and her
cousins childen are Marys. in fact all the
royal family of Spain, males and females,
are Marys, with scarcely an exception
This arises from the great devotion of that
Bourbon race to the Virgin, devotion
which has gone to such an excess Of fanati
cism rs even to confound the sex of the
name by applying it to males and females
indiscriminately.

THE GREAT wRoUGHT-RoN GUN.

This ponderous instrument of warfare has
now been waiting for three weeks the arri-
val Of some Of the government officials to
test its power. So far it appears to have
surpassed the anticpations of even military
officers. An instrument weighing nearly
p tons, manufactured of wrought-iron, and
throwing ball upwards of 800 lbs. weight
distance of more than four miles, with its
present low degree of elevation, and with
very small quantity Of powder, is what
was not expected by the military men pres
ent at the experiments. Such is the case,
too, of loading the gun, ponderous though
it is, that it can DO fired and charged and
fired again in less than ten minutes, only
six men being required for the operation.
Of its destructive powers, little is yet kno wn;
but if the effect Of the trial made on Thurs.
day. the 22d ult., be any evidencc-namc-
ly, the smashing to fragments slab of iron
ton weight and l-2 inches thick-no
walls yet constructed would stand before its
terrible projectile force; and it is not much
to say Of the gun, that, within range of
broadsidc Of the finest line of-battle ship in
the world, ono charge would be sufficient
to completely destroy the largest ship that
ever sailed.
The mere flight Of the ball as seen close
to the gun is no test of its power. He
who would wish to see the effect of the
missile must SO to distance Of little be-
yond two miles and half. The ball can
be distinctly observed in its career, although
the noiso made in its rapid transit through
the air may effect even strong nerved
person, and cause him to believe himself
OH unsafe ground. As soon as the ball
drops it tears up the ground for some dis
!ancc, and sonds the sand many yards high
in the mir. 1t then plungcs on its course,
and continues to do so until it is fully spent.
The excavation made in the ground on its
first descent is two or three feet deep
Slung on Mr.. julius Roberts principle, at
an anglo Of Is to rs degrees, the ball could
be projected a much greater distance, while
its destructive effect would be greatly in
creased. If such n gun wero employed
against place like Odessa, where all the
public buildings and all tile principal houses
are bomb proof few hours would suffice
to level thcm.-Livcrpool Mercury.

Endorsing a Bank BiH.--About year ago
n gentleman in Hartford, Connecticut, while
counting some bank notes carelessly wrote
his name "n the back Of $50 bill. A
few days since, son of the Emerald Isle"
handed the bill to him requesting him to
give him gold for it. The gentleman,
on looking in the Bank Note Repor-
ter, found that the bank had suspended
payment, and accordingly gave Pat specie
for the bill he had SO carelessly endorsed.

n California Coroner.-Tbe vigilance
committee, in the course Of their investiga-
tions into the case Of coroner whom they
had arrested, ELECTED satisfactory evidence
that he was in the habit Of disinteriue the
bodies OF persons who bad been buried,
for the pupose of dropping them in the
docks. and thus receiving tile fees attending
an inquest. In this way, It is sail, one
body has been made 70 do service three or
four ti.nss--or as long az it would bold to-
