A Sea Monster.

Although England and Russia are on
tho verge OF war every few weeks, yet
the former is building for the latter
one Of the most tremendous war ships
that ever has been put in water. This
formidable monster may at no distant
day be turned against its builders. It
will be shaped like turtle and on its
polished steel back the heaviest shot
will glance hsrmless!y off. The bottom
will be constructed in the same manner,
and sharp edge will be presented all
around that will utterly discomft the
festive ram that endeavors to puncture
it. Quarters for officers and men will
be constructed on the back of this mon
