coating preserves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take, while being purely
vegetable no harm can arise from their use in
any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on
the internal viscera to purify the blood and
stimulate it into healthy action-rcmove the

THE MoLAssEs BRIG NOVELTY, OF BOSTON

From the Boston Traveller. Jan. 2Ol
few weeks since we stated that the Atlantic
Works. of East Boston, were building an iron brig
designed to carry molasses in bulk and have now
to report that she will be launched from the Glen
don Rolling Mills wharf on Saturday forenoon at
high water. She is $50 feet long on the keel. 40
on deck. has Y feet breadth of beam, IL feet
depth of hold, and will register about $50 tons.
Her dead rise at half floor is inches and she has
sufficient swell and sheer to impart an air of light
ness to her general outline. All her accommoda-
tons are on deck, and consist Of trunk cabin,
house for the crew, galley aud some small store.
rooms, leaving the hold entirely clear for cargo.
Her ribs are of angle iron by 3 inches and Of
an inch thick, with reverse bars of % by % and
SIG Of an inch thick, and are 81 inches apart.
The floors are Is inches deep, the stem and stern
posts ere solid, and the plating varies from Gle to
of an inch in thickness, closely riveted with
Pembroke iron.
She has seven circular tanks secured on an iron
platform and braced from the sides, aud these are
connected with one another in such manner
that they can be either united or disconnected at
pleasure. Their combined capacity is 90 900 gal
Ions. On the top Of each there is aturret to allow
for expansion, and also over each there is hatch
way. SO that they can be examined around
above and below at all times. She has power
full steam pump by which to discharge, and 1t is
estimated that in six hours her cargo can be
pumped out. At the place where she will dis
charge in Boston there is tank to receive her
cargo. The saving in casks, cooperage and leak
age will be very great, and In the course of few
voyages will make up the difference in the ex-
pense of such vessel compared with one of
wood.
Besides the tanks she has considerable space in
the wings and in the ends TO stow away any out
ward cargo that may be required to balance her,
and even if the experiment of carrying molasses
should fail, still the tanks can be taken out with
out difficulty, and she will even then be none the
less serviceabe vessel. But we do not believe
the experiment will fail, but on the contrary will
be entirely successful and that after che has made
q few voyages others will be built like her.
She is brig rugged, is good looking vessel and
we have no doubt will prove swift saler. Capt.
Havener, who is well acquainted with the Cuba
trede, commands her, and she is owned by Messrs.
Nash, Spaulding 4 Co. She has been rightly
named the Novelty. for she is the only vessel Of
the kind in the country.
