s'3O.-The rolling of the Mary Ann was so
great that fell overheard, when Immediately
gave orders for the crew to follow me. Jim and
Ted got out, but both on the same side, tipping
the boat and spilling the cable.
S4O.-The Mary Ann r1ghted herself, but no
cable. The Buoy found perfect as regards the
outside; the inside arrangements in a very un-
satisfactory state; reported by Ted and Jim as
having mark OF NJ. T. on the bottom; 67S feet
of cable paid out.
90O.-Having now lost one oar, and being
unable to proceed, buoyed the cable and returned
to the Ferry House tor another oar.
los P. M.-Afer dinner, with another oar,
and Buoy filed at the expense of the crew, again
started with the Mary Ann for the scene of our
morning labors.
l20.-Found the cable, but the Buoy was gone.
Examined the new Buoy and found it too heavy,
likely to sink Got the cable on board and
lightened the Buoy, and it being near high tide
started straight for Vine street wharf.
1'30.-Stop rowing to avoid Tugboat All
hands called to examine and tighten the Buoy.
140.-Again stopped to allow another Tug to
pass. Took Tug ourselves at the Buoy.

THE "BUoY" USED ON THE OCCASION.
7lO.-Thirty-fve feet rowed, Al feet of cable
paid out. Tried the Buoy and found it would
sink, corked. Took the cork out and lighteued
it; passed it to Ted and jim, who did the same.
7l5-Everything working we'll; 1lO feet paid
out Tested the Buoy again and found it too
heavy; removed some of the contents; passed it
to Jim and Ted, who did the same.
7'3O.-Again examined the Buoy. Jim and Ted
stopped rowing for few minutes, and examined
it also. The Buoy was now sensibly lighter,
with considerable rolling motion to the vessel.
The cable by mistake paid seveaty-four feet, all
in bunch. Hereafter must watch the brakes.
7'4O.--Found 1t expedient to again tighten the
Buoy-the Mary Ann steering badly.
7'5O.-The ArdSapha appearing in sight in the
American side of the channel, preparations we're
made to get the Buoy in order by tightening it.
Jim and Ted lent hand under the trying CIR
cumstances.

CUSTOMS OF SERVICE FOR OFFICERS OF THR
ARMY. By Augustus V. KautZ. Philadelphia:
j. B. Lippincott & Co.
The little pocket manual before us is intended
solely for the use of officers in the army, and
consequently addresses itself to an extremely
limited class OF readers. It is careful compila-
ton of the duties of every officer as taken from
the authorized manual, and is enriched by con-
siderable experience on the part of the author.
1t is of such size, and bound in such manner,
as to be particularly suitable for carriage in the
pocket.

The work issued by Mr.. Boutwell, is not of
much interest for general reading, but is lnva.

the Internal Revenue laws, codifed and arranged
so that every article can be easily found, and
the tax OF exception at once determined. 1t is
clearly printed, and should have place in every
counting-room and business office. j. X. Simon,
No. 33 s. Sixth street, is the agent.
