LONGEST STEAMER IN THE WoRLD.-The IA
vorite steamer Isaac Newton, which short time
ago was taken up on the new railway at Long
Island City, for the purpose of being heightened
and otherwise improved, is now very near COM
pleted She has been cut into two parts abaft
her machinery, and ffty-nine feet added to her
length. Her entire length is now 404 feet, which
exceeds that of any other vessel in the world,
being fourteen feet longer than the Persia.
(The Leviathan is of course excepted. When
completed, perhaps none will possess accommo-
dations for passengers equal to hers. Besides
the numerous berths in her cabins and saloons,
there viii be on her promenade and hurricane,
or third decks, state rooms, well ventilated and
beautifully arranged and ornamented, sufficient
in number to accommodate thousand persons
Her speed, it is anticipated, will also be consid
erably increased with her dimensions and car
rying capacity. The whole work is being per-
formed under the supervision Of Isaac Newton,
Esq, in whose honor, the vessel was named, and
who for many years past has been the master
spirit Of the Hudson River steamboat line The
Isaac Newton will probably take her place in
the line in the course of the ensuing month

The MERR1aac COMPARED WITH EUROPEAN

The MERRIMAc COMPARED WITH EUROPEAN
VEssELs.-The Merrimac, though only with the
decks of q frigate, would, with her machinery,
and present armament, be a more powerful and
efficient ship than the Pennsylvania, with her
three decks under cover, besides her spar.deck
battery, and has five hundred less number as
her crew than that ship would require.
The Merrimac is probably, at this moment,
the most efficiant and powerful ship-of-war in
the world. She is of equal, if not of larger ton
mage, and mounts more shell guns, than any
ship in either the British or French navy. The
Bretagne in the latter, and the Wellington in the
former, are their two crack ships, respectively.
The Bretagne mounts 140 guns and is 1000
horse power; the Wellington 100 guns and of
900 horse power; but neither have as many
shell guns as the Merrimac but have the prin-
cipal portion of their armament Of the ordinary
"a, 80 and AZ Founders. The four armed decks
of those vessels gives them such great bulk
and height out of the water as to make them
much more prominent objects for the effect of
shot, as well as more difficult and slower to
maneuver, and duller sailers. In an action with
such ship as the Merrimac, the latter could
choose her distance and position and would soon
shell such bulky enemy into shreds. F

COURAGEOUS WoMAN.-In Jersey city, few

About midnight the lady of the house woke up,
and seeing the burglar, demanded the cause Of
his intrusion, when he stepped to her bed side,
and raising his clenched fist, said: ''Lie still,
or I'll take your life!" "Take my life, hal"
responded our undaunted heroine, .take care
that you don't have your own taken" and suit
ing the action to the word, she said, "John,
hand me that pistol" Now, although there
was no John in the room, 1.-THE heroic lady being
all alone,) yet her Spartan courage had the de-
sired effect, and the burglar, with several Of
his accomplices, fed from the premises without
carrying off any booty. an
