III Do the Same for You.
Battle Hourtain Nssssngsr.


A young webfoot friend OF ours a few
evenings ago was relating some facts on
his native country. After he got through
with the old lady on the raft with a long
pole looking for the well. while her
children were nearly perishing for water,
he spoke OF two families living pretty
close together. and in good circum.
stances. One family had q boy aged
twenty and the other had q girl about
eighteen. The old folks on both sides
were determined to make q match. The
boy being q little backward, the girl was
to do the talking the first time they met.
So on their return from church one eve
ming. the girl thought it q good oppor-
tuniiy to see what Jim would do. She
started in: Jimmy. why don't you get
married 2" ''Sallie. I don't know; an.
not and any one that wants me-"
.'How do you know jimmy you don't
ask them" ~ am afraid to ask"
''well. now Jimmy. II you will DO good
I will marry you" "whs /! you don't
say; II you will. I will do as much for
you sometime" They were married.

New York Tribune : II is sufficiently
evident now what sort Of change"
the election OF Hancock would give the
country. The South would come into
power with Its determination to wipe
the last vestise Of war legislation from
the statute books. That means that the
negroes Of the South would never have
their votes counted. save when they were
cas-. for the Democratic party ; that
Southern claims and remuneration for
slaves would be paid ; that the waste
places" Of the South would be built up
and made to blossom like the rose with
liberal appropriations for internal i'm
provemsnts. How would the money be
raised to meet ell these dsmandsi Why.

would throw Us back to where We were

which would be radical enough to suit

New Atlantic Steamer.

The following letter to the London Times is in
teresting.
Sir,-In regard to an announcement lately
made in The Times that the Cunard Company
contemplated the construction of q steamship of
great size and power, 1t may interest the public
10 know that nv partners and l have Just con-
cluded a contract with Messrs. James and George
Thomson by which that firm Is TO build on the
CLYDE, for our fleet, a screw steamship, the size Of
which will be exceeded only by that Of the Great
Eastern, while the speed will be greater than that
Of any ocean steamer adOat. This new vessel
will be Of 7 800 tons and 10000 horse power, her
dimensions being SCOTT. in length, soft. in
breadth, and Aft. In depth, propelled by inverted
direct-acting compound engines, with three cyl
inders and seven oval tubular boilers, having 80
furnaces and l,OOOft. of effective hre-grate sur
face. She will have an extra promenade deck,
and will practically be a fve-decker, being fitted
for $50 frst-class and 600 steerage passengers,
with accommodation for a crew of 200 officers and
men. Her cargo capacity will be equal to o 800
tons, with l 100 tons of coal and l 200 tons of
water ballast, having a double bottom on what Is
called the . longitudinal and bracket system"
This vessel has been designed, after heightened
consideration, TO meet the requirements of our
transatlantic service, and we have adopted in ey-
cry detail of the ship and engines the most adj
vanced scientific improvements compatible with
the safe working of so great a vessel. Among
the important matters into which We have cru
cially inquired has been that of employment of
steel instead of iron, and after a practical and
thorough examination into the merits of both ma
terials, we have adopted steel for the hull and
boilers, but under a provision so stringent that
every plate, before acceptance, will undergo q Sc
we're and rigid test by a qualified surveyor ap-
pointed and stationed at the steel mandatory for
that special purpose, and that the manipulation
of the steel by the builders shall be subject to an
equally careful supervision by qualified engineers
of our own appointment. The steel is to be made
on the Siemens-Martin process, and all rivets as
well as plates throughout the ship are to be of
steel. The name of the new vessel is to be the
Sahara, and she is to be ready for sea in March,
1881. am yours, &C.,
