"A Boston paper tens us that com
pany OF English capitalists, with capi
tai of two millions, are about to start in
Charleston, S. c., an enormous cotton
factory establishment for supplying Euro
pean trade, They are backed by the
wealthiest firms in England and France.
Several other enterprises, it is added, are
under consideration which, if successful,
will speedily render Charleston the lead
ing city OF the South.
We wonder ii it won't help some other
place.
The Springfield Republican says the
lady whom Senator Sumner is soon to

The result of the strike among the
deck hands employed on the Northwest
ern Packet Company's boats on the
Mississippi, has been disastrous to those
concerned in it. The company sent to
Cincinnati aud engaged six hundred ne
groes, whom they now employ, paying
them less rate than the old hands re-
ceive' The white men are indignant
and threaten the negroes with violence.
A first rate joke took place quite lately
in court room. A woman was testify
ing in behalf of her son, and swore that
he had worked on farm ever since he
was born. The lawyer who cross-examin
ed her, said: '.You assert that your son
has worked on farm ever since he was
born." Says she, 81 do. "Then, Said
he lawyer, "what did he do the first
year?" He milked," said she, and the law
yer evaporated.

" The Dunderberg."

The great iron-clad ram Dumderbsry
which has been built in New York is at
last ready for vse She was tried on a
short trip in that harhor on the 14th.
previously, her machinery was kept going
at the dock for fprty-eight hours like the
Algonquin Every thing is reported to
haye worked smoothly. This monster
ship is sasd to he the largest in the Amr-
rican navy. She has two. engines of six
thonaud horse power each, and ccnden-
ser twenty feet long aud ten feetin diam
eter. There are also independent engines
for ventilatiEg and purposes. Her boi-
lers are seventeen feet in height, thirteen
feet indepth and twenty feet in width.
These immense masses of iron weigh one
million and eighty thousand pounds.
The boiler surface is thirty thousand feet
and the propellers twenty five feet in dl-
ameter. The ship is o: immense proper
tions. being three hundred and eigty feet
long, seventy-two feet in breadth of beam
and twenty two feet deep. ,Asolid ram
extends from the bow above and under
'warter fifty feet, and her draught of wa
ter is twenty-one feet. Herarmor weighs
two million two hundred and forty thou
sand pounds and she consumes nearly
three tons of coal per hour. Her capa-
city wIn be from sixteen to eighteen
miles per hour. Upon the trial trip the
ship ran down to the Narrows, where
some experiments as to, her capacity in
turning quickly were made. There wers,
forty-oiie, trials in all of her oa;;acity,
and she Was turned repeated,y:in a space
barely more-than half ner total length,
each complete revolution being made in
m average time of three minutes and
thirty seconds, and not the least dipping
or lateral lurching being noticed to the
acntest observation. As prophesy and
exhibition Of the rapidity and facility
with which, in case OF conflict, the naval
annihillator could g change her base, to
either vary the direction of her dischar-
ges or bisect her opponent, this execution
Was pronounced unapproachable on the
part Of anything else that now carries
cannon by the unanimous verdict OF the
officials on board. She carries guns OF
