Professor Hart in his sensible address
upon the "Mistakos OF Educated Men"
draws this instructive contrast between
two classes ofmonwho arc TO be met
with in all communities. He saws:
Thee are two friends, gentlemen Of
plentiful means, whose estates ami nn.
nuel incomes are about equal One Of
these is always short Of money buys ev.
orything on credit, and on the longest
credit he can command, often whom
travelling has to borrow money to take
him home, and really has to make as ma.
ny turns and shifts to got along as if he
were poor. All simply because he lives
Just twelve months on the wrong side Of
his fortune. The other man, whose an.
nual income and expenses are about the
same os those OF his neighbor, never has
an open gceount buys everything for
cash, always has plenty OF money in his
pocket and plenty more in bank, and is
apparently without n care 10 the world,
so far as money is concerned An sim
plyBecauso he lives just twelve months
on the right sido Of his income. The
two men have equal resources. In the
course of their.liyos they spond about
equal amounts. the onos ia al@ayl

PROTECTION FOR THE PACIFIC CoAsT.-A
Washington correspondent writes something Of
interest to the people of California, as follows:
The Navy Department has issued specifca-
tons for the construction Of iron.cad. shot
proof steam floating batteries, to be two hun
dred feet extreme length, forty-six feet ex-
treme breadth of beam, and twelve and half
feet total depth, upon the general plan Of the
Monitor. The iron Of the turret to be eleven
inches thick instead of eight as on the Monitor
and to be in eleven thicknesses Of one inch
each. The turret is to be twenty-one feet in
the clear. The engines and boilers are TO be
Of sufficient capacity and power to propel the
battery at least nine sea miles per hour for
twelve consecutive hours in fair weather. and
the coal bunkers to carry coal for seven DAYS
steaming at that rate. The Government pro.
poses to pay for each battery completely equip
ped for service and action, except the guns,
fuel and ordnance stores, the sum of S400 .000
At the request of Phelps and Sergeant, the
Navy Department have authorized tie speci-

bids, in the hopes that such vessels as are ned
ed for the California coast may be constructed
there, at such price as the Government may
be willing to pay. 1t IS obviously impossible,
as these gentlemen stated at the Department,
for vessel carrying coal for bat seven days to
be transmitted around the Horn The YES
sels will have to be constructed here aud put
up there, or constructed by California mechau-
les after the materials have been shipped out
No matter how good may be the sea-going
Qualities of such vessel, the coal question
decides the practicability of its making the,
voyage. Undoubtedly, the Government VIII
increase the pay for the construction in Cali
foruia, having reference to the cost Of trans
mission"
As we have before stated, Mr. Douahue
avows The ability OF the workman Of this city
to construct the batteries. and we doubt not
they will soon be under way journal.
