The Stevens Battery Ready for Sea.
The Stevens gunboet, which has
been so longi in building, and the sue
cess of which has been so doubted,
is nearly completed, and will be ready
for launching in June at the farthest.
Most ofthe machinery is in position,
and the vessel will be completed
during this and the next month, with
the exception of a portion of the
joiner's work. She has four engines,
aggregating 5000 horse power.
These engines have a forty-ive inch
stroke and run two immense propel-
lers. The vessel is 410 feet in length,
is 5000 tons burden, and draws
TWENTY-FIVE feet of water, being only
two feet above water-line. Ventila-
tors are supplied, by which it is be-
liered a full supply of air can be fur
nished below decks. She is built
for a turret thirty eight feet in dia-
meter, and is calculated to carry two
of the heaviest tRenty-inch guns.
Her arm II will probably be of two
inch wrought iron, bOlted 10 q thick
ness of ten inches. Her boilers are
len in number, and are heated by
thirty furnaces. Mr.. Stevens, in his
will, bequeathed this immense con
Germ to the state of New Jersey. 1t
is not known whether the state can
hold the bequest, but if it can accept
the beqnest it viii probably dispose
of in some way. So, that, in any
event, the battery will pass into the
hands of our own or some foreign
government. It is not intended to
arm the vessel until after she shall
have been finally disposed Ofin some
way, since the purchasing govern
ment will probably have some speci-
al instructions regarding the arma-
ment.

ALsdv in rroubie.

Not long since some lady visitors
at a noted manufacturing establish
.ment were very curious to ascertain
the precise manner in which the in.
tricate machinery worked. One, in
particular, was minute in her inquir-
les, and somewhat adventurous in
gratifying her curiosity. The en-
gine particularly became an object
of inte est; admiling complime ITS
were expressed to the grim engineer
and sweet, rosy lips expressed the
most sensitive admiration for the
courage he displayed in standing
right in front of the heated furnace
and controlling with such precision
tie vast machinery.
Attached to 5he engine are a num-
Der Of little faucets with levers. Out
of these little tubes the steam es-
capes. If the pressure of the subtitle
element is TOO great, a turn Of the
lever sends the hot blistering steam
ont into the air, and the boiler is re
ieved. These are located near the
ground, and in walking alongside oI
the boiler, lady-s robes, unless she
is very careful, win come IN contact
with them. Our fair friend was not
careful. Her inquiring mind pushed
her too far, in making one Of those
pirouettes that young ladies Of an
agile turn Of mind are accustomed to
indulge in, her hoops caught over
the lever of the steam faucet and
turned it. A shower of steam, un-
tbashed by Sae delieacy of the situa-
tion, and undeterred by sense OF
modesty, rushed out among the
skirts. It fevered and burned
around among the shapeIy extremi
ties scalding hot. OF course, sht
