Now that the prompt and peremptory
though accidental sinking of the British
iron-clad Vanguard by her consort, the Iron
Duke, has called public attention SO sharp
ly to the use of the ram in naval warfare, it
ought to be put on record, that the first
modern naval fight in which this method
of settling an international difficulty was
decisively adopted as fought by the victo-
rious commander ON a hint given him from
this country. A writer in the New York
World says: l allude, of course, to the
severe naval engagement of July 18, off
Lissa, on the Dalmatian coast, between tie
Italian fleet of Admiral Persano and the
Austrian feet of Admiral Won Tegethoff.
The admiral, who was one of the simplest
as well as one of the travest of men. told
me that on reading the account of the
preparations which were made at New
York in 1862 to fit out the Vanderbilt for
the purpose of ramming and sinking the
Confederate iron-clad Merrimack, he made
up his mind that this would prove to be the
best way of dealing with armored vessels
in action, and devoted himself to special
study of the questions involved. When he
was ordered down with his small mixed
squadon to Lissia, early in July, 1866, to
relieve that place, then besieged by the
powerful iron-clad fleet of Admiral Per-
sano, his intention was to test this theory
ON this subject. AS he went into action on
the 18th he signalled all his ships, Bear
down on the enemy and sink him." His
own flagship, the Ferdinand Max, If my
memory serves me rightly, was an iron-clad
of about 600 horse power. His captain,
Baron Max Won Sternek, had orders to " go
for'' all the iron-clads in the enemy's line,
one after another, and did SO with great
spirit and skill. The Ferdinand Max sue
cessively ran three Italians aboard, captured
the flag of one, crippled another and sank
the third, the Re d'Italia. in two minutes
with her whole crew of 600. The Austrians
tried to save these poor fellows, with human
inconsistency, but only succeeded in rescu-
ing few of them. Admiral Won Tegethof
told me, by the way, that he never saw men
behave more gallantly than the Italians on
this ship. The crew cheered defantly as
their huge ship careened over, and the
sharpshooters in the tops went down firing
their rifles.

LEONA.

Literary critics have pronounced the following poem
unsurpassed by any other production of its class
our language. 1t is perfect in rhyme, beautiful il
| figure and expression:
Leona the hour draws nigh,
! The hour we've waited SO long,
For the angel to open door through the sky,
| That my spirit may break from its pri. and try
| Its voice in an infinite song
Just now as the slumbers of night,
Came DER me with peace giving breath.
| The curtain halflifted, revealed to my sight
| Those windows which look on the kingdom OF light
| That borders the river of death,
| And vision fell solemn and sweet,
| Bringing CLEANS of morninglit land;
saw the white shore which the pale waters beat,
And heard the low lull they broke at their feet
Who walked on the beautiful strand.
And wondered why spirits could cling
To their clay with struggle and sigh.
When life's purple autumn is better than spring,
Aud the soul flies away like sparrow to sing,
In a climate where leaves never die.
Leona. come close to my bed,
And lay your dear hand on my brow:
The touch that thrilled me in days that fed,
And raised the lost roses of youth from the dead,
Can brighten the brief moments now.
We have lived from the cold world apart
And your trust was too generous and true,
For their hate to oerthrow when the sander,rs dart
Was ranking deep in my desolate heart,
Twas dearer than ever to yon.
thank the great Father for this,
That our love is not iavished in vain;
Each germ in the future will blossom to bliss
And the forms that we love and the lips that we kiss
Never shrink at the shadow of pain
BY the light of this faith am taught
That my labor is only begun; .--....
In the strength of this hope have 1 struggled and
fought,
With the legions of wrong, till my armor has caught
The geam of Eternitys sun.
Leona, look forth and behold,
From headland, from hillside, and deep,
The day king surrenders his banners of gold,
The twilight advances through woodland and wold
And the dews are beginning to weep.
The moons silver hair lies uncurled,
Down the broad breasted-mountains away;
The sunsets red glory again shall be furled
On the walls OF the west DER the plains of the world
And shall rise in lmitles way,
Oh! come not in tears to my tomb,
Nor plant with fra flowers the sod;
There is rest among too sweet for its gloom,
And life where the lilies cternally bloom.
In the balm breathing gardens of God.
Yet deeply those memories burn
Which bind me to you and TO earth,
And sometimes have thought my being would yearn
In the bowers of the beautiful home, to return
And visit the home of its birth.
'Twould even be pleasant to stay
And walk by your side to the last;
But the land breeze of heaven is beginning to play
Lifeshadows meeting Etcrnity's day,
And its tumult is hushed in the past.
Leona, goodbye; should the grief
That is gathering now, ever be
Too dark for your faith yon will long for relicf
And remember, the journey, though lonesome, is
BRIEF
Ger lowland and river to me.

A. T. Stewards $40, 900 Carpet.

Among the many treasures owned by
the merchant prince" is magnificent
carpet, which was once intended to grace
the Ealls of royalty, having been manufac-
tured for the Emperor Napoleon. Its size
is about forty feet square. The center
piece, its most prominent object, occupying
nearly one-half of the whole area, repre-
sents beautiful oval-shaped picture set in
a gold frame, and suitably hung, would at
distance be easily mistaken for an elegant
painting.
Tile picture shows the harbor, castle and
surrounding country of Marseilles, France.
In the foreground, one is charmed by the
blue water and the stately ships at anchor;
further back the harbor and ancient castle,
rising grandly in its magnificent whiteness
against the green foliage enveloping the
base of the mountains which form the
background and lift their heads into blue
sky, faxed with fleecy clouds. Napoieon's
coat of arms surmounts the picture, and
Latin motto, wrought in gold on blue rib
bon-like ground, lies half unroiled at the
base.
Immediately surrounding this lovely pic
ture, in bed of rich brown, is garland
of beautiful flowers, much larger than nat
ural size, but SO brilliant and so delicately
and accurately represented that it seems as
if one might stoop and lift the petals one
from another. Outside of this garland,
and serving as border to the carpet, is a
wreath formed of overlapping oak leaves
and acorns, also in natural colors, their va
rious shades of green and brown blending
in exquisite beauty.
It is quite impossible to give an idea Of
this wonderful fabric, which was made
with the needles Of poor women, who
wrought it in sections and set together, af-
ter the manner of the camel's hair shawls
Its texture is as delicate as q silken robe,
and no painter could portray color or detail
with greater skill. It actually cost $1O,-

BoNNER's PURCHASE,
The Sale of the Geldlng Grafton What
|, @ the Horse can do. .4..,..f.


The Utica Herald has the following upon
the sale of Grafton TO Robert Bonner:
Yesterday we noticed the arrival Of Rob-
ert Bonner, of the New York Ledger. He
came to Utica with the Rev. Perfect Horse
Murray, of Adirondack fame. It was sup
posed that Mr.. Bonner had his eye upon
the horse Governor Sprague, the wonder
full four -year-old, but it appears that the
best eye was pointed in the direction Of
another remarkable horse. After visiting
the stables at the Utica Park, and inspect
ing all the fine animals now comfortably
quartered there, he laid hold of the chest
nut gelding Grafton, owned by Richard
Penistan, Of Lexington, KY, and secured
him. Grafton is considered to be one Of
the great wonders of the turf. He is seven
years old, and comes from running stock on
both sides, having been sired by Waxy
and damned by Kavanaugh's Gray Eagle,
daughter of the Great Great Gray Eagle,
said to be the handsomest horse ever on the
American turf. Grafton is sixteen hands
high, rich chestnut, rakish in appear
ance, and is said to resemble the Auburn
horse from the shoulders to the back. Thus
far he has had but little work, not enough
to make him as steady as he should be on
the turf. When he breaks he has to be
pulled almost to a stand-still to get him on
his feet again. In trial at Cleveland,
Grafton trotted mile in 2:15AA, not by hug
ging the rail, but in the middle of the
track. Mr.. Penistan purchased him last
fall in Lexington, KY, after seeing him
show an amazing burst of speed in race
which he lost. He is regarded as one of
the most remarkable horses brought out.
This is virtually his first seasons work on
the turf, and yet he has made it in 2:15a,
and it is believed that he can beat Ala.
Penistan purchased him for g., ,000s and he
has been sold for big price, probably $780,
900. Agent Lewis shipped Grafton by ex-
press at 1910 p. m. yesterday. He is in
charge of David Bonner, brother of Rob
ert. The horses Richard and Stilletto, also
owned by Mr.. Penistan, accompanied Graf
ton, and at noon to-day the three will luxu-
riate in Mr.. Bonner's splendid stables. The
purchase virtually retires Grafton from the
public turf, as Mr.. Bonner does not trot
his fine horses in races for money. We are
glad he has fallen into such good hands,
but regret that he will not have the oppor-
tunity Of beating Goldsmith Maids time
at the Utica Park this week. It is hardly
probable that he would have started here,
as he took cold in Buffalo, and not been ex-
actly "r1ght" since that time.
