NV IDEA IN SHIP BUILDING The
keel for new steamer, about to be built at
Sandusky, is being laid 4 new thing in
the art OF ship building is about being test
ed. The boiler has been placed in position,
and the vessel will be built around it, the
timbers being placed together in such a
manner that the work can proceed in the
ordinary way. When the vessel is ready to
launch, the boiler will be in its place the
: fling of the cumbrous thing into the hold
being thus avoided. IF the plan will work,
without serious disadvantages in building,
1t will be a blessing to steamboat builders
and will be generally adopted. The present
experiment will be watched with no little
interest-Daiy Wisconsin.
The above may be watched with interest
by the ''grceny's' OF other portions of the
country, but the experiment is nothing new
to the people of Manitowoc, for the steamer
North West was built at this place last
summer in the manner above indicated, and
If the Sandusky ship builder will come here
we will have Capt G. S. RAND show him
how to do the job.

COTTON AFFECTED BY POLITICAL PoLICY.-The
policy which has been adopted by Congress towards
the Southern States since the conclusion of the
has had the effect of continuing the disadvantages
which that event had entailed upon the cotton pro-
ducton of the United States in the markets of the
world and Of increasing the independence of the
American staple which England had energetically
availed herself of the to accomplish 1t
urally hoped that at the close of the the ascen
dancy of American cotton in foreign markets would be
again substantially established, but the legislation of
Congress has actually tended to build up the cotton
culture of England every year more firmly, and is
steadily operating to make that which once the
most profitable the least productive of all of pro-
ductons. Instead Of the cotton States being permit
labor policy has been adopted which paralyses their
and dverts the freedmen from the steady cultivation
of the soil to political strife and agitation whilst, if
this not enough, tax has been imposed upon
cotton equal to one-flth of the crop. The runous
effects of such course becoming visible
to those who have thus tampered with of the
profitable industries of the country and Injurious

Yields the planters only about twelve and half cents

would more than balance the account. 1t is stated
that in many localities half the crop has been ruined

SHER1DANs LAST CAMPAlGN.-A(ter the Sheridan
receptions in Cincinnati, Philadelphia, and elsewhere,
the New York Times announced that the presence of
the little cavalryman" had created great enthusi-
asm among the ex-soldiers, and that consequently
rousing majority would be given for the Republican
tickets in Ohio Pennsy lvania and New Jersey. Since
the result Of the elections has been known however,
not so much influence is attributed to " Little Phil"
The following from the New York Herald shows how
much the efforts of the General contributed to the
strength of the Republican party in the North
Sheridan's last campaign has added nothing to his
glory His tour in company with eundry politicians
has had very queer effect, and illustrates nothing so
we'll as that it is not enough for soldier to hold his
own tongue but that he must also choose bis company
and give politics the go-by. Sheridans reception in
Philadelphia was great stirring up of all the Radical
elements; but the votes in the late election there
went all the other way. Even Massachusetts is in
danger, with all the enthusiasm Little Phil brought
OUT and saltpere will hardly the Empire State.
Sheridan it is true, not talk but Sckles can and
he went along; yet his elegant and astute
tences had no better effect than had the and
presence of his gallant fellow soldier. It would have
been wiser, after all, for Little Phil to have gone
straight West to the plains cutting the politicians,
that he might cut at the Indians.
