SHIPwRECKING AS A TgAIE.- Exactly
as there is nothing new under the sun,
SO, We may take it for granted, there is
nothing uncommon or rare, andOwbere
Thomassen attempted and failed, other
men have attempted and succeeded. 1t
is very likely that, as has now been sug-
gested in more than one quarter. the
City of Boston was destroyed in some
such diabolical manner. 1t is seldom
that an Atlantic liner leaves absolutely
no trace of her loss, and Of the City of
Boston not boat or plank has ever
been picked up. Anyway it is tolerably
certain that of the many vessels that
are written of as lost with all hands not
a. few are destroyed by foul means.
Anyone who has been 10 sea only for a
short voyage must know how very un-
likely it is that good ship properly
handled should founder in mid ocean.
A vessel of 2,0e0 tons, if her cargo is
rightly slowed, ought to be able, aud
for all practicable purposes may be as
sumed to be able, to ride out a hurri-
cane. Of course snips may, and often
do go ashore, but that is the fault, or is
may be the misfortune of the Captain,
not the fault of the ship. When. how
ever, we find, as We do, that quite as
many vess-ls 60 down bodily at sea as
are wrecked on the shore, it is impossi-
BILE not to suspect treacnery. OF course
a missing vessel may have come in coll
lision with an iceberg or with mass OF
floating wreck. So, too. for all that
anybody knows, she may have been
taken by pirates; and practically there
is almost as much chance of one catas-
trophe as of the other. Icebergs and
floating wreckage are more common OBJ
jects at sea than are pirates; but, in
known cases, they have seldom destroy
ed a vessel without leaving aoundant
traces of her to be afterward picked up.

DAILY AND WEEKLY GLOBE.
vERMONT's LARGEST AND BEST
NEWSPAPER.

NE w oFhTGR,
The new year, concentrating the compile
ton OF the first century OF our Independence
and witnessing the election Of president and,
for the first time in our history, an entire ma
tlonal house Of representatives, Will be one OF
splendid possibilities both to journalism and
the country,
THE GLOBE will avail Itself OF the former, by
giving the news, late, prompt, fresh and full
by impartial comments on the news OF the
hour /; by candid, honest discussion of the Is
sues of the day by full reports of local occur
rences, and correspondence both local and
general by agricultural readings, market re-
ports. and by selections both grave and gay.
In a word, the endeavor will be to make THE
GLOBE a live newspaper, indispensable TO the
farmer and business man, to the politician and
student, to the office, counting room and the
family circle.
That the country may realize the possibilities
seemingly In store for II, we shall on our part,
as In times past, advocate the principles and
policy OF the republican party, as we under
stand them, and, to that end, we shall labor to
make 1t better and purer by combating Its
errors and exposing the wrong.doers In Its
ranks. We shall favor and strive for real ad-
ministrative reform, speedy return to specie
payments, an honest maintenance of the ma
TONS pllghted faith,a purer and better politics,
q faithful and economical administration OF the
government, municipal, state and newfoundland
shall support only honest, capable men for
office.
As an earnest OF the future,we can only point
to our course In the past. and assure our pat
rons that hereafter, as heretofore, we shall en-
deavor to make THE GLOBE better and better,
and more and more worthy OF support with
each succeeding month. What THE GLOBE
has been during the less than three years OF its
existence is well known, that it has been fully
appreciated Its generous support amply attcsts.
As a medium OF Advertising THE Gi.oBE is in-
surpassed In Vermont. The combined daily
and weekly circulation erceeds that Of any other
daily and weekly newspaper In Vermont the
circulation OF the datyis equal TO that OF any
other daily in Vermont the circulation OF THE
WEEKLY GLOBE Is much larger than the combined
circulation Of all The other Ueekiy newspapers in
Rutland county and is more than one-half
larger than that OF any other weekly journal in
western Vermont Advertisers make a note OF
thisand OF the further fact that 1t Is the largest
journal In the state.
