A queer craft for she GEAR.
London Telegraph.

His Majesty the Gar has ordered
the construction at Glasgow Of one
of the most curious vessels ever built
1t is pleasure yacht of some 1000
tons burden, to be made of steel, and
to be driven by three bronze screws.
The lower portion Of this experiment
tai craft will be shaped Ike huge
fat fish, being almost as broad as it is
long, with sharp sides and pointed
head and tail. The imperial yacht
will be exactly Ike a brill, in fact, as
regards contour and dimensions. On
the back of this pluero-nectid will be
reared a floating palace OF halls, sa-
looms, boudoirs aud cabins, rising sto-
~ above story, SO that though the
vessel will draw no more than Eileen
feet of water, and this only when the
screws are submerged, she will tower
high above the Hottest waves, which
are expected to dash and break against
her enormous area and Hattened bilges.
The extraordinary model now being
put together by Messrs. Elder & CO.
is principally designed to abolish that
very uncomfortable movement at sea
which troubles Cars as well as mean
er persons. and we doubt not that
very special degree of stability will
really be obtained. The circular 20
poffkas-though faiIuras as men-of-
war-have always proved remarkably
steady in sea-way, and this prodi-
gious fiat fish of steel ought to ride
almost as placidly as floating island.
were it not for that "scend" of the
ocean which no vessel, however big,
has ever yet conquered. The Cars
