SAILING. STEAM.

The Secretary OF the Navy, in his report
Just transmitted to Congress, states that we
have 264 vessels, 1857 guns, and 22,OO0
ssamen, but he includes in his list, receiving
ships and ships of the line that have been
on the stocks since 1918.
The British: Navy is much the largest in
the, world, and of nothing is the Rnglishman
so proud as Of being "mistress of the seas"
This Navy, always great was immensely
augmented during the Crimean war, the
government then, for the first time turning
its attention to gun boats, adding about 100
of them to the navy before that war closed.
It has also paid much attention to iron clad
vessels.

armed vessels afioat in 1860. Transports OF

And Publish the Lists Of Killed
and Wounded,

And in fact not omit any information
that can interest the very large number Of
readers of the Weekly Leader.
Notwithstanding the war monopolizing
necessarily SO large share of our columns,
we intend to devote liberal space to the
details of other news of the day, and also
not omit the literary ald miscellaneous
matter which has always made the LEADER
a pleasant companion in the family circle.
The LEADER will increasingly advocate the
right and the duty of the Government to
protect and defend ITSELF and TO employ un
limited means for the accomplishment of that
end. 1t will, as it ever has done, wage de-
termined war upon whatever is opposed to
the principle of civil and Religious Liberty.
The Proprietors of the LEADER have made
definite arrangements for the year 1862, by
which they trust the paper will become even
more of necessity to the people Of Northern
Ohio than ever before. Full telegraphic re-

CHAPTER YI.-THE ATTEMPTED ESCAPE.

For she lOnged to be at home with her mother again
In hsr own native home in the Jungles OF Maine.
so taklng advantage one very ine day,
w hen business had called the pirate away,
She packed up her traps in package quite tight,
And made herself ready for her dreadfuI light.
She Iacked up band boxes a dozen or more,
An oid umbrella. ana doughnuts a score,
bottle OF air oil, new dressing case,
pair tf new CATERS Of the finest point lace,
game nubia and poplin skirt,
tortoise shell basque that locked we'll on a firt
And to NIL a great want that the ladies' do need
she took home back numbers Of GOdeY's to reai.
But when she had all her things and was ready,
She ound that her package would then be too heavy
30 with no o her clothes bot her old umbrsl
And nat, she resolved 10 take her farewell
Ths cave was built of Milwaukee brick,
IL was nVe stOl les high and the walls very thick
1he doors dOuble-locked, 50 she looked for q rope,
10 escape by The window was her only hope.
She took of the cord from her bed with will,
And she fastened Il quick TO the strong window SILL
But before she did go she resolved she would pay
For the zoe If she damaged il in any way;
Then she went to the window and commenced to de-
scend,
But oh Lord from such accidents do US defend,
For whtn shs was four hundred feet in the air,
The cord broke with the Weig of It's burden so fair
To those who manufacture rope,
We've a1Vice to give, Whch they III take. we hope,
That none would break whe fighting wrong,
But all be made strong, stout and able,
To hang each cursed Southern rebsl,
And no caIe to expenses pay,
But make ropes goot and strong, we say.

Effective vessels of the British navy. 6lS
This would make total of 5l3 actual
war vessels, without including the large
number of transports and other ships that
could, at short notice, be converted into
men-Of-war. The feet would carry between
$4,000 and 5000 guns, and we do not be-
lieve that the French feet-that is, the yes
sells now afoat or on the stocks-can ap-
proach this figure within two or three thous-
and guns.
Great Britain keeps more vessels on for
eign naval stations than any nation in the
world. At present she has an unusually
large force on the North American and
West Indian station, owing probably to the
American civil war. The British American
feet now includes thirty-One war vessels,
not counting transports, mounting about
63Oguns. Besides these there is the British
division of the Mexican expedition, on its
way to Vera Cruz. 1t includes three ships of
the lIne-the Conqueror, the Donegal and
the Sanspareil, mounting in all 26s guns
It will thus be seen that if the peaceful re-
lations between Great Britain and America

power has already the nucleus Of a fOrmida-
bic feet on our coast.
The French have ever been Jealous of the
English additions to the navy, and during
the last few years, the additions to the French
navy have been large and important In
the year 1876 the House of Deputies passed
Law, afterwards sanctioned by the House of
Peers, fixing the effective of the naval forces
of France at 1872 steam and sailing vessels of
war, viz: 40 line-of-battle ships; fifty frig-
ates and l62 steam vessels of all sizes, e1elu-
sive of brigs, aVisos, schoeners, cutters,
transports, etc. The execution of this law
was carried cut by the Government of Louis
Philippe till the year ls4s, and afterwards
by the Government of the Republic, with
unprecedented energy and vigOr.

It is high time this city was pHrged of all
persons who express Northern sympathies,
1--WE think SO tor, or who manifest, Joy at
any trihing success of our enemies. If the
forcible arrest of Messrs. Mason and Slidell
be not resented forthwith by Great Britain,
the British consulate should be required to
be closed this city instanter. The British
Government has not sent Consul to the
Confederate States, and it is derogatory on
the part of the Confederate Government to
permit the residence among us of British
official accredited to the Lincoln Govern
ment.

The following is the closing portion oI
Henry Ward Beecher's Thanksgiving Ser
mon. After demonstrating that England
and France were not in position to inter-
fere with US by reason of the condition in
which God had providentiaHy placed them,
England being more in need of corn than
cotton, and France having found it necessa-
ry to curtail her army and ezpenses-he
closed by saying:
We have sealed 5000 miles Of coast; we
have shut the breathing holes; and now we
are putting in the red hot torch of war at
the upper end, and in a short time | think
rebellion will be unearthed God has pour
ed money in our land; God has taken away
Gotten from England, and he holds France
In His right hand. Sweep round the ring.
Stand of spectators. Now let this gigantic
universe understand that 1t is liberty and
God, slavery and the devil. No man put
hand or foot into that ring till they have
taken battle unto death. Amen. Even so.
Lord God Almighty, it is Thy decree, It Is
Thy purpose and when the victory shall
come, not unto us, not unto US, but in the
voice of Christ, ten thousand ransomed ones
mingle with all Thy childrsn's gladness.-
Unto Thee be the praise and the glory for
ever. Amen.
