sociation has been organized in the
western part of Pennsylvania, with
headquarters in the city of Pitts
burgh, which has for its Object he
erection Of new State out Of por-
tion of the keystone State, called the
State of Allegheny 1t is proposed
to divide the State of Pennsylvania
so as to follow the county lines be-
tween Mexican, Cameron Clearfeld,
Blair, Huntingdon and Fulton coun-
ties en- the one side, and Potter,
Clinton, Centre, Miflin, Juniata anI
Franklin counties on the other; the

defined. 1t will embrace twenty
eight counties, with o population of
1,454,l96 The total population of
the entire State of Pennsylvania is
4,237,3l2. This would leave the
State, after taking from it the State
of Allegheny, with 2,783.ll5 inhabi-
tants, or nearly twice the population
of the proposed State of Allegheny.
A number of leading men are inter-
. esting themselves in the movement,
who are very earnest in advocating
the formation of the new State.

works were FIRST started in 1865, by Chung
How, the now disgraced Chinese Envoy. They
have been much enlarged and improved upon
by Ii Hung Chang, Viceroy Of Chilli, who
also holds the rank of Superintendent of Ar
senals and Naval Affairs for the Empire. The
cost Of maintenance is probably Sl00, 600 per
month.
torpedo school, for instruction of Chinese
cadets, was established in Foochow in 1877,
but has been removed to Tientsin. The pupils
show marked proficiency in the manipulation
of the system of torpedoes and telegraphy at
tached to tho Taku forts. They also work the
line of wire connecting Taku with Tientsin,
and thence I'm to tie Viceroy's palace. Regu-
lar examinations are held quarterly by the
Viceroy, who awards honors to those distin-
gushing themselves. t.-sz .R
To the Foochow dockyard must be awarded
the honor of the construction of the only war
vessel China possesses, with the exception Of
those constructed in England, to be hereafter
referred to. This vast and costly undertaking
was first originated by Ting Futsi, under the
management of NJ. Prosper Giquel, Lieutenant
Vasseaux, of the French navy, and afterward
Commissioner OF Customs at Hankow and
Ningpo, and who, during the TAPPING rebel
| lion. raised and commanded q force known as
the French contingent. The whole establish
ment was differed by Frenchmen, excepting
the naval instructors, Captain Carroll and Mr..
HARDWOOD gunner. This dockyard is used only
for the purpose of ship building. 1t has built
no less than twenty-seven gun vessels and
transports some of them, to be enumerated
hereafter. are really formidable ships. With
the exception of the corvette Yangu0o, and the
gun-bo Nos. 6, Z, and 8, which possess
engines built in Scotland, after models in use
in the English navy-uiz., direct acting hori-
zoutal, with fighting boilers-the other yes
sells have all low-pressure upright engines,
similar to those used in the merchant navy.
Ten of these engines were built in France, at
the dteiiers of the SOciete FORCES de Lyons
and the Societe Marine de Marseilles, but were
fitted at the Foochow dockyard. All the boil
ers were constructed by native artisans. Of
these ships, eighteen were built under the
supervision of the French artisans, but in 1875
their services were dispensed with, and the
remaining nine were constrcutsd by the Chi
nese themselves. The following may serve as
classification of their fighting capacity:

vessel, and regulate her speed, by means of
levers. In addition to the heavy guns, two r.
FOUNDER breech-loading Armstrong; and one
Calling gun are carried aft. All the vessels are
built Of steel, and have four transverse water
tight buIkheads, with horizontal underwater
deck protecting the magazines. The whole of
the machinery, engine, boilers, and hydraulic,
are below the water-line. The commanders,
officers, engineers, and crew are all Chinese,
and number fifty all told. The captains have
been pupils of the Foochow scholarships, and
are fully competent to take their commands.
Their station at present is at Tientsin. Gun
practice and drill is had each day, and q good
state of efficiency prevails. 1t may be stated
that all the little ships steamed out from Eng
land, and, owing to the interest displayed by
the Admiralty, officers of the British navy were
permitted to assume command. The voyage
throughout were perfectly successful. They
encountered heavy gales in the Bay of Biscay,
but proved excellent sea-boats, thus demon
strating the fact that this class of war-ships are
capable of making voyages on the open seas
In addition to the vessels mentioned before,
the province of Kwantung has some small
steamships, used chiefly for the suppression of
piracy and for revenue purposes, but which
could be adapted for the purposes of war if
necessary, being fairly armed Four more of
the alphabet" feet are about to be built, by
order of the Viceroy of the 1.-TWO Kwangs,"
for coast defense. 1t may be safely asserted
that this large feet of ships places China in
very fair position as regards her naval equip
ment. Her vessels are good, and their arma-
ments excellent; but what she needs most is
men to command her sailors. Discipline is
lax, although bravery is common among the
men, who are all drawn from the maritime
provinces. and three-fourths of whom have
served upon foreign steamers and ships, and
are acquainted with nautical usages. 1t wonld
be invidious to make any comments upon the
part China may play in o naval engagement,
but foreign nations. in the event of war, would
not find victory in 1880 as easy as they found
| it in 1850 and 1861. HENRY D. WooLPE.

CFrom Mr, Howells' Story in the May Atanticl
 Suppose went with you to this Iady's house"-Ford touched with the stem of his pipe letter which lay open on the table pull ednear him-''and visited among your friends, ths nobility and gentry: I should be remind ed by thousand things every day that was 8 sham and 6 pretender. That kind of people always take it for granted that you feel and think with them {; and I don't. You can't keep telling them so, however. And suppose I tried to conform; should be an amateur among professionals. They have the habit of breeding and of elegance, as they understand it. may have loftier ideal, but l haven't discipline 1 can't realize my ideal; and they do realize theirs,-poor souls! That makes me their inferior; that makes me hate them" Ford took up his pipe.
 s'Oh," said Phillips, 'you can put an ironi- cal face on it, but suspect what you say is really your own.
 ''Of course it is. At heart I am prince in disguise but your friends won't know it if I sit with my coat off. That would vex me-" He took up the letter from the table, and holding it at arm's-Iength admired it. ''Such hand alone Is enough; the smallest letters half an inch high and all of them struggling their shoulders. I can't come up to that. If went to this lady's house, to be like her other friends and acquaintance should have to be just arrived from Europe, or just going; my talk should be of London and Paris and Rome of the Saturday Review and the Revue des Deux Mondes, of English politics and so- ciety my own country should existfor me on sutferance through compassionate curiosity, half repulsion ought to have recently dined at Newport with poor Lord and Lady Scam perton, who are finding the climate so terri ble; and I should be expected to speak of per sons of the highest social distinction by their first.names, or the first syllables of their first names. You see, that's quite beyond me. And do bring your friend, Mir. Ford" heread from the letter mincingly, and laughed. 'I leave 1t to your fertile invention to excuse me, Phillips"
 He kindled his pipe, and Phillips presently went away. It was part of his routine not to fix himself in any summer resort, but to keep accessible to the invitations which did not fail him. He found his account in this so- cially, and it did not remain unsaid that he also gratified passion for economy in it but the people who said this continued among his hosts. Late in the summer, or almost when the leaves began to turn, he went away to the hills for fortnight or three weeks, providing himself with quarters in some small hotel, and making point of returning to the simplicity of nature. In the performance of this rite he wore straw hat with O wide brim, and 8 flannel shirt, and he took walks in the woods with the youngest young ladies among the boarders.

Profits of Rose Culture.

It is stated, as showing the profits from rose culture that in 1871 florist in Aassa- chusetts set out five rose bushes of the Gene ral Jacqueminot variety, in 8 greenhouse 1e feet by 100. The first crop of flowers he sold for cents each, with his tsa-roses- The next year they sold for $1 per dozen, and the next for $2 per dozen. During the month of Feb ruary of this year he cut 1, ,O52 roses which he sold to tho florists in Boston for from 25 to 50 cents each, netting him $40. 50. Since that time he has cut and sold enough to make the amount over $500 in the aggregate from the five plants. A second crop from the same plants is now coming In.

Kentucky has a Sunday law, but 1t will rot heys orc long if it Is enforced as 1t was in Louisville last Sunday. Beginning with mid night on Saturday, the police waited all the newspaper off ces and reported all persons found at work to the Grand Jury for indiot- ment. All saloons were closed and all public hacks sent to their stables. Sunday the po- lice visited the church of the Rev. Stuart Robinson, procured the name of the sexton and organist, end will report them for indict- ment, the law saying that all persons who re- ceive pay for services of any kind on Sunday shall be punished. It is not surprising 10 learn that some who favored this sweeping law are now opposing it.

HowThreeDebts. Were Paid.

A singular coincidence, showing how much can be done by the payment of even small debt, happened yesterday. A gentleman was at the wharf intending to purchase some lob sters, when two gentlemen came up and en- gagged with him In conversation. The first oentleman said to the second, s'I believe owe you dollar 'sYss," replied the second, ''I believe you do." The second man then spoke to the third: 'I believe I also owe you dol lar," which fact the third man acknowledged, and he also said that he owed the first man 8 dolIar, which he desired to pay. In this tran saotion the three men each paid their indebt- edness to each other, and they did so without passing any money between them.

It is asserted positively at the sher- man headquarters that the Secretary will ex- perience no difficulty in securing 8 solid Ohio delegation to Chicago. The feeling among the friends of Mir. Sherman is said to bs one of greater confidence than at any tine since the canvass began. They say that his strength Is developing mors rapidly than they expected.
