OUR NAVAL FORCE ON THE COAST OF EUROPE TO BE
INCREASED.

OUR NAVAL FORCE ON THE COAST OF EUROPE TO BE
INCREASED.
In view of the impending conflict on the con-
tinent of Europe, it has been suggested that our
naval force in that quarter should be increased,
in order to render ii thoroughly competent TO
protect American citizens residing in Europe;
and ia pursuance of this suggestion, the Navy
Department Las assigned the eunbOat SlodtdrG,
now ready for sea at the Washington Navy Yard,
to that squadron. Several other vessels are also
to be despatched as soon as they can be placed
in readiness.
Among the vessels spoken of as likely to be
attached TO the European squadron are the new
irigates Franklin, Guerriere, and Chattanooga,
with the new sl0ops-ot- war heshGmOfly and Mddd
loaSkd. The ,Seratard is a screw gunboat of S3l
tons burden Told measuremenD, and was built
at the Philadelphia Navy Yard She was
launched on the 23d of May, 1865. and from that
time until January of the present year was en-
gagged in receiving on board her machinery
stores, etc. On the 10th of January, 1866, she
was placed in commission at the Washington
Navy Yard, and was shortly after ordered to
make a cruise among the West India Islands as
a practice vessel for midshipmeu. She has but
lately returned from this cruise, which proved
most successful one, and is now in perfect
seagoing ORDER
The SI0GtGrd is a sister ship OF the Quinne-
bG1tq, which was lately launched at the Brook
lyn Navy Yard, and is a very swift vessel, haV-
ing been constructed with view to making
speed the paramount object Her armament
consists OF ten guns of heavy calibre, and her
engines are of the most powerful description.
She is altogether a model vessel Of her class,
and will afford our transatlantic neighbOrS
another striking example OF the progress made
by us in the art Of building swift and powerful
war vessels
The European squadron will now consist of

PETROLEUM ETHER.-In a note in the journal de
Chinie MedicdLe M Il. GEORGES describes the results
of his Xperiments with this substance. In certain
women 1t produces violent glddlness, especially IN
those accustomed TO close atmosphere. This
action ls due to peculiar principle, which may be
removed, and which acts Principally on the brain
and heart. M. Georges thinks that the low price
and great volatilit, OF this compound ought to
render 1t extremely valuable for various purposes.
CENSUS OF FRANCE-Ihe eleventh census OF
France is In progress. The results are looked tor
with much interest, owing TO the fact that since
1861, the date OF the last census the country has
been In an eminently pro porous condition OF all
the European nations, France shows the slowest
Iate OF increase in population The % 100000 OF
1901 had only increased by 1900 900 IN 1861 During
the same period Great Britain increased from
10 900 to % 900 0O0
HORRIBLE SToRY.-A singular case has Just
come before the French tribunals. A young g1rl
eleven years OF age attempted successvely the life
OF her mother and sister for the sole purpose of
drinking their blood. The child has been examined
by competent ply slclans and proved to be attacked
by the strange mania OF anthropophagy; Her
extreme youth leads the physicians TO hope that her
cure may be accomplished

NEMESIS.

There's funeral shadow lying
Athwart Europe Tar and vide:
Drifts and scuds Of terror flying
Fierce ard fast, on every side.
Over Germany they darken,
Over Italy they gloom:
Sea-girt England's hushed to hearkep
For the trumpet of the doom.
What is il, this black terror
Is't but the cloud of war,
BY some perDicious error
Drawn near, from seeming far?
No Us deeper derk'ning,
Than cen watB cloud can spread;
And the voice for which we're hearkening
Thrills with more than battles dread.
There's lustre as of lightning
Hid IN the war-Cloun's breast:
There strikes ali upward brighl'ning
From an armed nations breast.
There is music in wars voices
Stern music though IL be
When down.trod Right reioices
Night has ris'n 10 set her free.
But in this cloud no lifting
Of the heavy pail we trace;
Light breaketh through no rifting
OF this veil on Europe's face.
No eK9tation bl endeth
With this low mourning moan
OF Freedom as she bendeth
Her face aside to gIoan.
'Tis Nemesis-dark angel
That follows on ill deeds,
And writes her stern evangel
In the fate of crowns and creeds-
Tis Nemesis, that mouldeth
This shadow dense and deep,
From the wings that she unfoldeth
With long and lingering sweep.
'Tis Nemesis that speaketh
In the thunder of these clouds
The Nemesi that wreaketh
Kings wrongs on guiltless crowds.
'Tis Nemesis preparing
Bloody crop from evil seed,
The Nemesis ne'er sparing
Ill-doer or ill-deed.
So England naught reioces,
In the view OF goddess fight;
Has no well wishing voices,
Where none are in the right
Sees not Freedoms angel sprin ging
From the blood that shall be shed;
Only Nemesis, slow wipging
O'eT her due track, strewn with dead
Punch.
