The First Ocean Steamer

The first steam voyage across the Allan
tic was made by the American steamer
Savannah, of $50 tons, built at New York.
She sailed from Savannah, Georgia, May
10th, 1919, and reached Liverpool in 18
days, seven Of which she used sails, as her
stock of fuel ran out
The sight of so novel craft, described
by the English papers as of a" beautiful
model" entering the harbor without the
assistance of a single SAIL" created not only
" qualification but " astonishment." As
she was going up St, Georges Channel,
the commander of the British feet lying
there was utterly at loss to account for
her remarkable appearance, enveloped as
she was in heavy clouds of smoke and
moving without the aid of canvas. He
paturally concluded she must be on fire
and In distress, and sent off two cutters to
her relief; but finding that his assistance
was not wanted, he brought her to with
shot, and satisfied himself, by examination,
that all was right, when she was permitted
to proceed. She was received at the
docks by large crowds that had assembled,
with cheers and congratulations
From Liverpool she went up the Baltic,
and while lying in the port of Cronstadt
was saved from wreck, during terrible
storm, in which many vessels were lost,
only by the assistance rendered by her
paddles. During her stay at st. Peters
burg, Alexander, Emperor of the Iron
North, pleased with the novel idea of a
steamship, presented Captain Rodgers with
two iron chairs, one of which-the only
relic of the adventurous bark-is now in
the garden of M. Dunning, of Savannah.
On the return of the Savannah from her
European trip, she was sent to Washington
city, where she was sold and her machinery
removed. For years afterwad she piled
as packet between Savannah and New
York, under the command Of Captain AL
drich

How To TREAT THE BITE OF DoG.-Dr.
Stephen Ware, of Boston, in his testimony in
recent case which grew out of the injuries
from the bite of a dog. furnished the follow
ing valuable advice: In the case of bite by
a dog. where the teeth of the animal pene
trated the flesh, whether the dog was known
to be mad or not, he should use the same
precautions. He would wash the wound
with warm water extract all the virus posi-
bic by sucking the wound with his lips, and
then cauterize it deeply with the caustic mos
readily obtained but should use potash if i,
could be procured at once. The time in
which the effects of the bite Of a mad doc
would be seen varied from two to three days
to as many years; but it no effects were fell
after two or three months, as general thing
the patient might consider himself safe
BITES made through clothing are seldom pro
duetlve OF much harm, as even if the dog i.
mad the clo'hing absorbs the virus betor,
the teeth reach the flesh Most all the fata
cases are where the person was bitten or
some naked part

driich.

A correspondent of the Boston Journal,
speaking of the Queen of England, says:
As sovereign, she is the hardest work
ing woman in England. Her official duties
usually commence at seven o'clock in the
morning, one hour before breakfast
Wherever she is, dispatches are sent daily
in by messengers, who ride in frst-class
cars, bearing what are called baskets. The
papers from all the departments are sub
mtted to her. These baskets are dark
morocco boxes, about foot in length
These are sent from Downing street, the
Admiralty the Home Department, the head
of the army, etc. Each box is locked by
the Minister who sends it. A card hang
ing from the inside contains the name of
the Minister Every train to Windsor,
Balmoral and Osborne carries messengers
with these boxes The Queen and the
Minister alone can unlock them, for she
signs nothing that she does not read
Every bill, Act, treaty, document, petition,
or paper requiring her name, is subject to
her personal attention Her Majesty is
said to be one of the best business women
in the kingdom. Each days business is
finished before the day closes Usually
the messenger waits and takes the basket,
locked by her Majesty, back to the Minister
from whom it came The Queen holds a
ready pen, and carries on her personal cor
respondence, which is very large She
pays her own postage, like any lady in the
land. She has always given personal at
tention to her children, and their religious
training has been the object of much solici-
tude and care. Her favorite pastime at
Balmoral is among the poor, the lowly, the
sick, with whom she talks, reads, prays,
leaves medicine, food, money, and little
tokens of her regard.
