COMMENCEMENT OF CAMP MErrIHos.-Of
the origin of camp meetings, the New York
Evangelist says: The first camp meeting held
in America was in Kentucky. Two preach
ers--one Presbyterian, and the other
Methodist-met in village, on the Sabbath.
where there was but one church. The Pres
byterian offciated in the forenoon, and the
Methodist in the afternoon. The interest
upon the subject was SO great that they con-
tinued the meetings for q day or two at the
house. The attendance soon became so large
that they adjourned to the woods, and contin-
ued the meeting for week. And this is the
origin of the modern camp meeting.

Mr.. Scott Russell has published a lepJ u
Sir Howard Douglass recent pamphlet "n th~
comparative value of iron and wooden shil.> f
war. Sir Howard's opinion is 'that ships
formed wholly or nearly so ofiron are utterly
unit for all the purposes and contingencies
OF war, whether as fighting ships or as trans
ports for troops In opposition to this Mr..
Scott Russell submits: L. That iron steam
ships-ofwar may be built as strong as wood
en- ships of greater weight, and stronger than
wooden ships of equal weight. Q. That iron
ships of equal strength can go on less draught
of water than wooden ships. 3. That they
are more durable. 4. That they are safer
against the sea. 5. That they are safer
against fire. {. That they are much safer
against explosive shells. 7. That they are
much safer against red hot shot. 8. That
they are much safer against molten metal
9. That they can be made impregnable even
against solid shot
