The following paragraph, in reference to the grow.
ing Importance of Glasgow Iron Ship-buildng, will
indicate in itself that our British friends derive
large revenue from this source of manufacture.
"Of all the branches OF industry, belonging 10
Glasgow and its harbor, there is assuredly none of
modern date which has made such rapid progress as
that of steamboat building and marine engine
king. From the first start, of the little Comet in
1872 till 1920, there at the most only one or
two river steamers launched yearly, and of tonnage
so small as to be scarcely worth notice. About that
period this manufacture received new impulse and
began once fairly TO develop itself From 1921 to
1880. there were 38 steamers built, with tonnage
of 42OO from 1881 TO 1910 there were "a steamers s.,
with tonnage of 1893; from ls4l to 1850 there
were 1877 steamers, with tonnage of 81 ,447. while
during the three years from 1851 TO 1853 there were
2O6 steamers, with tonnage of 141,713. The pres
emf magnitude of this industry may however, be best
appreciated from the fact that during the years 1858
and 1854, the then thirty-two shpbuilders on the
Clyde had contracted for no fewer than 266 vessels
including both steam and sailing, having an aggre-
gate tonnage of 10000, for which also marine
engines were constructed or in progress, of 10000
horsepower the average of these vessels being $50
tons, and involving the enormous cost of nearly five
! millions sterling"

FREMoNT's BLooD.-Fremonts biographer having
stated that the Woody Horse candidate has the blood
of Washington in his VEINS the Richmond Dispatch
replies:
Col. Fremont has no more of the blood OF Wash,
neton in his veins than he has of julius Caesar and
Pompey, or Alexander. His mother was pretty
country ass, of no social pretensions, who came to
this city, and married the old revolutionary soldier,
Pryor. The advocates of Fremont declare that the
union of Madame F. with that gentleman's father
strongly opposed by the members of her family,
The only member of her family who opposed it was
her husband but his opposition of no avail Inc
enterprising Gaul who begat Fremont paid no regard
to any prior right.
