The Portuguese government is about to make
some very important additions to Its naval
power Not many months ago the Cortes
voted sum of e37O,OOO for the construction of
new ships of war, and Captain Testa, aistin-
guished officer of the Portuguese navy, was in.
structed TO proceed directly to England and oh.
tain the fullest information on the various
types of vessels now bui ding for the English
admiralty. The government has finally re-
solved to build two powerful corvettes, de-
signed to carry six large guns at high rate 4
speed, to be constructed on the system know n
as comnosite.

One hundred and fifty respectable citizens of
Ripley, o., declare that recently they beheld a
beautiful little angel floating in the air, and
they appeal to the scientific to explain it. We
make no pretence to sceatific knowledge, but
think that the matter might be explained by
the supposition that on one occasion in Rip
ley, Ohio, hundred and fifty respectable
citizens must have been under the influence OF
spirits.

And that Slam" in the sense of ''beat' or
punish as used by our rowdy element To-
DAY, was in use centuries ago with precisely
tne same signification, and IS to be found in
some OF the old dramatists, although Web
ster Ignores it. So "bummer" and 'gobble,"
