She is stiff and stsunch-so much so, that her
great engines, wheels and paddles impart scarcely
q percepbble vibration to her frame. She moves
through the water with the enst swell conceivable
for 80 vast hull. When fret seen from the front,

top-gallant yards. Only three of her masts are

bay was covered with water craft loaded down
with thousands of passengers whose enthusiasm

so, and reported that though very low.

"SPoT" LINCOLN.-Lincoln is known
throughout Illinois by the sobr,ouet Of
"Spot Lincoln" on account Of a long
and foolish set Of resolutions he in.ro.
duced into Congress when he first took
his scat, calling upon the President for
certain information relative to the spot"
of land on which the FIRST blood was
shed in the Mexican war. They are so
ridiculous that they never came to a
vote at all, even where his own party
was in the majority. Siace then he has
been "spo,ted" by the people of Illi-
nois whenever he has asked for office,
which has been nearly every year, and
he will be spotted" now by the whole
country.-Detroit Free Press.
