h Ounard service.


They are a steady. going, conserv-
alive lot the Cunarders, and never
do their business with a flourish or
spasm-neither the owners nor the
officers. The line, which includes
over fifty large steamers, remains
exclusively in the hands of the
firm that started it. There is no
stock jobbing or patronage about it.
The men employed are selected for
their worth, and not at the instiga-
ton of any meddlesome director.
The chief consideration in the
building the ships is strength, and
the second consideration is speed;
but strength is never sacrificed to
speed or appearances. The mana
ger in Liverpool is Mr.. Charles
MacIver, one of the founders,-
whose son is one of the members
of Parliament for the town-a
straight, shrewd, practical man,
with a personal knowledge of near
ly all his officers, and a still more
intimate knowledge of his ships.
He exacts the strictest attention
to duty, and never pardons an
error in this direction. He often
drives down to the docks and in
spects the steamers in port from
the stock-hole to the wheel-house.
The hour Of his coming is never
known, and if any man is found
away from his post that man might
as well resign. An officer (Mr. g.
died in Liverpool recently who had
for nineteen years held the same
position in the service, while others
had been promoted over his head.
He was a sober man, an experienced
sailor, and a skillful navigator.
Many wondered why he never rose,
and some tell this anecdote in ex-
PLANTATION. One night old Mr..
Iyer drove down to Huskisson
Dock, aud asked, on one of the
steamers, for the officer in charge.
The Waterman stated that be had
gone ashore but would be back in
an hour or two.
Who is it," asked Mr.. MacIver.
Mr.. c., sir"
every well; when Mr.. G.
comes on board tell him to take my
carriage and drive to my house"
When Mr.. c. reached the
house he found Mr.. MacIyer seated
in his library.
"You were absent from your post
tonight, sir; | wanted to see you,
sir; that's ALL" And Mr.. c.
was bowed out by the implacable
old Scotchman, in whose eyes a ne
glect Of duty was the worst possible
Offense, and never from that night
to the day OF his death was he pro.
NOTED to a more responsible posi-
ton.
On another occasion Mr.. MacIver
was on board one of the steamers
as she was passing from the river
into dock, and stood watching some
sailors hauling a rope under the
direction Of a mate in uniform, who
was helping them with a will. Mr..
MacIver was secretly pleased with
his zeal, but, touching him on the
shoulder, said, with affected severity,
"We do not engage you for that
kind of service, sirl" The mate
relinquished the rope at once, ex-
pecting a further reproof but
during the next week he was pro.
noted from the third to the second
rank.
