mittee and a pronounced innationiss, and Repre-
sentative Clinton l. Merriam, OF the Twenty first
New York district, o moderate advocate OF free
banking and the real author OF the Banking bill
now before the Senate, who at once enbered into o
warm conversation with the Comptroller. Mr..
Merriam, in quite an excited manner, charged Mr..
Knox with deliberate misstatement in regafd to
the S4000,000 or currency alleged to be uncalled
for. Mr.. Merriam asserted that no such amount
was ct the Oomptroler's disposal, and asked II
anybody desiring to establish Dank in the South
or West could obtain 1t, II the bonds were brought
and offered for deposit. Mr.. Knox responded in
the negative and explained that what was meant
was that the amount named had not been issued.
1t was. however, assigned and called for, though
the bonds were not put up. or some other cause
prevented Its being issued. In q few minutes the
loungers were gathered around the gentlemen.
THE LIE INDIRECT
MT. Merriam characterized Mr.. Knox's state
ment as an evasion. General Rusk spoke OF 1t as
an equivocation, and, under the inniction, the
Comptroller apparently lost his temper, and in
reply to . remark Of Mr.. Merriams that he had
defended Mr.. Knox on the noor or the House, but
would not do 1t again, the Comptroller replied in
loud and excited voice -
..Well, sir, you did IL OF your own motion and
because you thought IL just. l never asked you or
an, other man to defend me, and | never will
can do 1t mysef'
KNOX REvILED BY THE STATESMEN AND THE MULTI
TUBE.
From the 1rst OF the wardy melee It was evident
that the audience and its sympathies we're against
Mr.. Knox. At least q dozen well known Con-
eressmen were present. General John A. Logan
came UP at this time and took frec lance in the
lists, Mr.. Merriam Withdrawing for the Knight or
the Black Plume Logan was cool and bitter;
Knox was worried and heated. The Senator was
evidently fresh from an examination Of the
currency report, and fred at the head
OF the devoted ..civil servant volleys OF
figures which he af1rmed must be only fgurative,
not facts, II the statement made In the veto that
so much currency was uncaled Tor was TO be
taken as signifying what 1t said. Mr.. Knox, in
DEFENDING himself, said that there was portion
OF this currency residue assigned to Illinois, and
unlssucd or uncaIled for. This Logan 1T once de-

The Fastest Steamboat in the
World.

"Such," says the London Times, "is
the title claimed by her builders
Messrs. Thornycroft Church Wharf,
Chiswick-for boat they have just
built to the order of the Government
of India, for service in the GrisSa
canals. The dimensions Ofthis ex-
traordinary little vessel are: Length,
81 feet; beam, II feet; draught of
water feet 8 inches. The speed
contracted for was twenty statute
miles per hour. The hull, the work
ing parts of the engines and the pro
peIler-Thorncroft's patent-are of
Bessemere steel, and the woodwork
of teak. The official trial of the
boat was made on March 14th, under
the inspection of Colonel Haig, r. E.,
Chief Engineer of the Bengal Irriga-
tion Works, and the results were:
With tide, 25.0S miles per hour;
against tide, 24.15 miles per hour;
giving a mean speed of 24.64 miles
per hour. In another official trial a
few days ago it was shown that the
boat could keep up a speed of TWEEN
ty-two miles per hour without losing
steam. The speeds are extraOrdi-
nary enough in themselves, but
when it is considered that they are
attained by boat only eighty-seyen /
feet long, they become absolutely
wonderful, and are far beyond any
thing ever before accomplished. The !
value of swift steam launches as tor !
pedo boats is acknowledged, and al
ready various foreign governments
have ordered boats from Messrs.
Thorncroft's yard. Iftorpedo launch
ers can be built to steam at the rate
of sixteen or eighteen miles an hour
in moderately calm sea, the whole
face of naval warfare may find itself
changed in very unexpected way"
this is probably the great
est speed ever attained by steam
boat of such small size, Mr.. Thorn
croft's boat is not the fastest that has
ever been built. The Daniel Drew, a
Hudson River boat, has run 125
miles in five hours and five minutes
or say twenty-five miles an hour for
the whole trip from New York to
Hudson.

aNonsenser' said Clara blushing

eNonsenser' said Clara blushing;
''good children don't worry me-"
"You shall have Mrs. Hunt and
Laura, then, the two well behaved
ones," said Mr.. Hunt; and will take
my riotous boys"
So Miss Marchant went to the
Millfield show and won the first rose
prize, and came home full of re-
solve to stir up the Barton people to
rival Millfield next year. Her roses
were certainly drawing her nearer to
her neighbors, and daily involving q
visit to one or another.
Poor young Lawrence had the
prize rose in glass in his bedroom
for many day after the show; he
liked it all the better that it had been
to smoky Millfield, where his best
days were passed.
The last rose of the year, a sickly-
looking bud, was gathered by Clara
and placed in his dead hand as he lay
at last free from suffering in the cot
tage room.
81 shall bless you all my life," said
the poor, weary mother. ''If any one
sOothed a dying mans path to the
grave, you did"
With little Mary May and Oliver
Lawrence in the churchyard, Miss
Marchant felt she had an interest
there. Mr.. Hunt was willing to as
sist her in her plan of making it the
garden of the village, and many one
came to her to ask her advice how to
make the last home of wife or child,
pa ent or friend, more beautiful.
And not by her flowers only did
Clara Marchant win her way to the
hearts of her poor neighbors; she
had kind words for all. Barton was
no longer. dull, and she had made the
discovery that there was more than
smoke in Millfeld.
From the mill-people she came to
know the mill owners, and certain
pleasant Mr.. Thornbury, of large
possessions in the place, was lucky
enough to attract the interest of Miss
Marchant. In the ensuing summer
he often wore one of her rosebuds in
his button-hole, and before winter
Miss Marchant became Miss Thorn +
bury. She was to live at Barton still, ]
however; her father needed her and /
her poor people could not spare her,
even if she could leave her roses. }

GERMAN newspapers often publish
notices of births and deaths in a man
ner which seems strange to American
readers. Engagements are also pub
lished. In the second sheet, for in
stance, of every issue of the Colonge
Gazette, these announcements of en-
gagements may be found throughout
the whole year. When the engage
ments are broken off this is also at
times published by one or both of the
parties concerned. But it is very
seldom that an announcement such
as the following is found, which is
quoted in the Cologne Gazette of the
18th of June from the Dresdener
Journal: with respect to the an
nouncement by which 1, at the end of
last November, gave notice of my be-
ing engaged to the Dowager Baron
ess Zoe Won Kotzebue, / am obliged
to state that this relationship has, at
her desire, and to my great regret,
been broken of, because she did not
find in my department that gravity
which she had a right to expect
Count Luckner."

Dance light, for my heart is un-
der your feet, love.
BY JOHN FRANCIS WALLER.

hs
"Ah, sweet Kitty Neil, rise rip from the
wheel
Your neat little foot will be weary
from spinning;
Come trip down with me to the svcamore
tree.
Half the parish is there, and the
dance is beginning.
The sun is gone down, but the full har-
vest moon
Shines sweetly and cool on the dew
whitened valley;
While all the air rings with the soft. loy-
ing things
Each little bird sings in the green
shaded valley.
"With blush and smile, Kitty rose
up the while,
Her eyes in the glass as she bound her
hair, glancing;
'Tis hard to refuse when a young lover
sues
So she couldn't but choose to go off to
the dancing.
And now on the green the glad groups
are seem
Each gay-hearted lad with the lass of
his choosing;
And Pat, without fail, leads out sweet
Kitty Neil
Somehow, when he asked she meier
thought of refusing"
'Now, Felix Magee puts his pipes to his
knee,
And with flourish so free sets each
couple in motion;
With cheer and bound the lads pat
ter the ground
The maids move around Just like
swans on the ocean.
Cheeks bright as the rose-feet as light
as the does,
Now cOyly retiring, now boldly ad-
vancing-
Search the world all round, from the
sky TO the ground,
No such SIGHTS CAN BE FOUND as an
IRISH LASS DANCING.
''Sweet Kate! who could view your
bright eyes of deep blue,
Beaming humidity through their dark
lashes so mildly,
Your fair turned arm, heaving breast,
rounded form,
Nor feel his heart warm, and his pulses
thrOb wildly? u
Young Pat feels his heart, as he gazes,
depart,
Subdued by the smart of such painful
yet sweet love;
The sight leaves his eye, as he cries
with sigh,
"Dance light, for my heart it lies un-
der your feet, love-"
