A Formidable Engine OF War

Some one has furnished the n. Y. CONNER
ciH with the following description of yes
sci intended to operate against the blocka-
ding feet off the mouths of the Mississippi.
1t is New Orleans continuance:
At Algiers formidable instrument of de-
struetion is being prepared, and was expect
ed to be launched about the 10th. The tug
boat Enoch Train, built in Boston, and one
of the most powerful tugs of her class, has
b en- converted to purpose never intended
by her builder or the gentleman whose name
she bears. The upper portion of the boat
has been covered with railroad iron and per-
feetly shielded from the attack of an ordina-
~ cannonade. At the bow a ram has been
constructed. The bow has been built out to
the extent of five feet, heavily framed with
timber, and then covered with heavy wrought
metal.
At the extreme end a formidable mass of
iron projects in the form of knob. Beneath
this knob and beneath the SUI face of the wa
ter two strong grapples have been arranged
SO fashioned that upon colliding with a ship
the claws will fasten into the side of the
vessel and take firm hold. Protected by
these grapples in manner not unlike an in
sect's lance or sting there projects an auger
connected by means of shafting, with al in
dependent machine on she boat. This<fn-
strument is intended to operate as follows
Upon the attachment of the grapples to the
side of the attacked vessel, the auger will be
set in rapid motion and bore its way into the
side. When one hole has been forced through,
the anger can be withdrawn, and by means
of an independent axle, the position will be
changed so as to operate upon another por-
ton of the ship. thus boring holes rapidly
aud large enough to sink the vessel. The
boat will have crew OF six men, who will
be protected beneath the iron roof, the pilot
observing the direction through tube Or
small telescope.

The NELSON ARTILLEEY.-The English Ad-
miral nelson's daring deeds have rendered
bis name immortal; in every land it is IA
miliar word. 1t is proper that this should be
so, because the true hero deserves honor aud
fame, and were they net fully and freely
aSarded, one of the most powerful ineen-
tives 10 deeds Of chivalry and daring would
be wanting. But these are not the only
things, nor is the English Admiral the only
NELsos worthy of honor and distinction.
We have in our midst NELSON who, IN the
walks of private life, and as public officer,
has nobly illustrated some of the sublimest
traits ef human character. Every citizen
will know at once that We allude to ANsON
NELSON. For him an artillery corps, now
being raised in this city, is named-the +NEL-
son ARIHLERY'-'whose barracks are on
Market street, opposite MCCREA i Co.'S The
ranks are not yet filed, and recruits are
wanted. This fact has but to be announced,
we are confident, to cause the roll to be rap.
idly filed. The artillery is favorite branch
of the service, and the NELSON ARTILLERY
will become favOrite corps Join it, young
gentlemen, whilst you have the opportunity
If you desire to serve your country effee tive
ly in this day of need.

The VIRTUES OF BoRAx-The washer-wo-
men of Holland and Belgium, so proverbially
clean, and who get up their linen so beauti-
fully white, use refined borax as washing pow
der, instead of soda, in the proportion of
large handful of bOrax powder to about ten
gallons of boiling water; they save in soap
nearly half. All the large washing e,tab-
lishments adopt the same mode. For laces
caubrics, ETC., an extra quantity of powder
IL used, and for crinolines (required to be
made stiff strong solution is necessary.
Borax being neutral salt, does not in the
slightest degree injure the texture of the lin
en-; its effect is to soften the hardest water,
and therefore it should be kept on every tot
let table. To the taste it is rather sweet, is
used for cleaning the hair, is an excellent
dentrifce, and in hot countries is used in COM
bination with tartaric acid and bicarbonate
of soda as q cooling beverage Good tea
cannot be made with hard water; all water
may be made soft by adding teaspoOnful of
borax powder to an ordinary sized kettle of
water, in which it should boil. The saving
in the quantity of tea used will be at least
one-fifth.

Ro-WuRsHIP.-One temptation is upon
the people of these Confederate States, aris-
ing from their success in arms; one sin they
have to guard against, sin that doth so east
~ beset nations which have great interests at
stake and rejoice in wise and valiant captains
we mean hero worship.
Hero-worship is as dangerous as fascina-
ting, and to be resisted in the beginning. for
it has often prepared the way for destroy
ing the very blessings which heroism has
achieved.
Hero worship is invidious, If not unjust.
The private soldier, whose name is never
mentioned in the official bulletins, but who
toiled, and bied. and died, did his part as we'll
as the epauletted chieftain. His heart was as
brave, his courage as heroic, bis sacrifice as
patriotic. We wrong the many by heaping
all the bonors upon the few. The need of
praise should be distributed. IT'S pleasure
to be grateful, but gratitude should be lust
Heroes are in the ranks As we'll as on the
staff. 1t requires heroes to execute field
order as well as to give it. Well for ne that
this sentiment of honor is SO powerful and
precious a commodity. 1t is the soldiers
pay-his gain-his wealth. DEALT out un-
grudg ingly but fsirly.-CAusfian Adeoeate.
