THE I. S. STEAM FRIGATE NIAGARA A "TorAL

$50 much has been said about this Niagara, and
such exaggerated rumors have been afoat respect
ing her general capacity as war steamer, that
many of our readers may be surprised to learn that
as war steamer she is almost total failure
There have been bad bargains out of our own dock
yards Heaven knows but they have never vet
gone so far ds to produce wall-sided frigate of
almost double the tonnage of lne-ot-battle ship,
yet only capable of carrying II guns her spar

screw vessel, of the size the Niagara should
be well fitted for carrying at least 100 Of the heav-
lest ordnance used in warfare. Her share of the
cable is admirably well distributed throughout her
entire length, and thus, of course, any chance of
undue strain in heavy is in great measure
obviated. Still, strange to say, though those on
board assert that she is much stronger vessel than
the Agamemnon, her decks appear to have given
