photographs. In addition to this there are

them We recall the memory Of an exquisitely

q fine set of china, and large assortment Of
silyerware, including vases, ewers, salvers and
goblets; magnificent cape, stole and benedic-

The MONARCH, the new English tur-
ret-ship, does not meet the approval of
naval critics. Speaking of this vessel,
the London Times says; "a finer tar
get for an -enemy's artillery was never
designed. Rising out of the water with
a freeboard of fourteen feet, she extends
her long side, unbroken by single
port-hole, for more than hundred yards,
two-thirds part of which are unarmored,
except at the water-line, and the rest is
protected by seven inch armor, which
the guns of the Russian, ,Prussian, French,
and American navies would all be able
to shatter. She combines the greatest
defensive weakness with the smallest
offensive power. She is 5000 tons, and
only carries seven guns. At sea her
unarmored hull will generally be ,ex-
posed, and she will rarely be able to fire
her guns with any accurate aim. She
will not cost less than $2,000,000, and in
all the most essential portions of Admiral
Goldsborough's definition, it may be
safely predicted that the Monarch will
fail" .s9sfss rGfTra
