the malaria-and we never met any
more.
A few years after, laid my plans be-
fore the Emperor of Brazil. He was at
first enthusiastic, and generously offered
all the land required. At subsequent
interview, while insisting on giving a
large tract of land, he quietly limited
that had better bring all the people 1
wished to embark in the enterprise
from my own country. I saw clearly
that he had little faith in the work. And
perhaps he was quite right, so far as his
own people are concerned. The luxuri-
Gus South American certainly possesses
but little of that Spartan self-denial re-
quired to establish community of this
sort. '.s .as5r= ...t .t-., s,
The enterprise was abandoned this
time, not at all because of the Emperor's
indifference, but largely because just
about that time the British Government
had to send out ship to bring home
certain colonists who had, from q fail
ure of crops and other misfortunes, be-
come destitute and dissatisfied. Clearly,
the climate and fates were against it
here.-1he Californian.

The Cars Yacht.

1t is the very ideal of all yachts
neither more nor less than floating
palace. There are large saloons and
tiers Of verandas. The floors are laid
with sparqueterie and carpeted with
Administer. Two Jablokoff electric
lights hang from the ceiling. and nu-
merous candelabra are fixed to the
walls. A marble fountain stands at
one end of the hall, and richly gilt
and mirrored cabinet at the other. The
hangings are of crimson velvet, and the
chairs of hand brocaded satin. This is
the state apartment of the vessel, and
below it is arranged accommodation for
the imperial family. Sumptuous apart
ments, panelled with tapestry, and in
some cases with rich green velvet, are
provided for each member of the house.
The Cars private rooms are provided
with every comfort and luxury that a
dwelling could afford. A similar series
OF apartments were set apart for the
Empress. The Grand Duke is accommo-
dated on the awning deck with whole
series of rooms for himself and the cap
tain of the ship. The furniture and
decorations equal in richness those of
the apartments for the imperial family,
and below there is grand dining saloon
for the suite of the Grand Dukea Ex-
tending from this are two ranges of
apartments, all furnished with brass
bedsteads, walnut wardrobes, marble
washstands, and green leather-covered
chairs. The richly draped French win
dows, opening on verandas, the Axmins-
ter carpets and, above all, the absence
of rolling, quite upset the ordinary no.
tions of ship.

Joaquin Miller's Utopian Community.

4 once belonged to little association
formed solely for this purpose. Nearly
ten years ago we talked this over and
over in London. The idea has deep rosk
there. We used to turn our faces toward
our imaginary " Utopia" as sort of
Mecca of the club. And then we would
fall to quoting 6. The Ancient Mariner. !"
For you know Coleridge very nearly
came over the sea for this same pur-
pose. s.l. r-.,..
Finally. when the King of Italy con-
fiscated the property of the Chnrch,
and offered the monasteries for sale on
easy terms, all of a sudden our ideal OBJ
ject seemed about to become fact.
Some members of our club chanced to
be wintering in Rome, and one OF them
bought large estate, with a city al
ready built, down below Naples.
What happy and hilarious party we
were that rode down to take possession
of the old haunted convent and half-de-
serted city on hilli We were going
to invite all the Bohemian world. There
should be no houseless wanderers anv
more. Here were houses enough GER
tainly TO shelter all the poets, painters
and musicians out of doors. We were
going to lead a river from a neighbor-
ing mountain down through the streets
of this deserted and dirty old city, and
wash it clean for the first time in a
thousand years.
But we soon discovered that the place
was stricken with fever. And that was
why it had been so long deserted. The
people had died! Only few miserable
monks in brown, who rather preferred
death to life, and the hideous marsh
buffalo, groaning and wallowing through
the mud-lakes under the hill-these
seemed to be the only satisfied inhab-
itants of the whole region; and finally,
with the fever in every one of US, we
went back to Rome and gave it up, salts
fled that our only fit field of operations
was in young and healthful America.
But our enterprise had created some
stir in the Eternal City, and soon after
our return the King gave US an audience.
His Majesty was overland, and tried to
encourage us to 60 on! But our bright
young leader was still very i'll and hardly
able to get out, and we had but little
heart left. He died soon after, and as
the hot weather came on the others of
our party scattered like birds, going
whittier each ones faneies or fortunes
led or allowed, in search of health; for
we were all suffering more or less from

UnsinkabIe Ships.

The problem of rendering ships un.
slnkable has from the earliest times re-
ceived careful attention from inventors
and others and various propositions for
e7ecting this object have been advanced
from time to time, although, so far as
we are aware, none OF them have ever
been introduced in practice. This ques-
ton has found another advocate in Mr..
Lamb, of London, who has had steam
launch built to illustrate his system.
This launch was inspected, and short
run was made in her at North Wool
wich by a party of gentlemen interested
in steam navigation. The principle
consists in attaching to the sides of the
hull of a vessel series of flat air-tight
metallic cylinders or drums, the inner
heads of which are built into and form
a part of the framing and inner skin of
the vessel. The drums project on either
side of the ship and are cased in, the
under sides of the castings normally
resting upon the surface OF the water,
and becoming slightly immersed under
a load. The result is light draught
with great freeboard and it is claimed
that a greater stability under canvas
and higher rate of speed under steam
or sail are thereby attained. besides
several other contingent advantages,
The principles OF. the system and the
construction of the launch, which has
no pretentions to beauty, were ex-
planned to the visitors during a short
run, in which fair speed was main
tanned, the vessel moving very steadily
There can be no question of the safety
OF such vessel Inder most circum.
stances as regards her immunity from
sinking, although in applying the prin-
ciple in Practice several questions of
detail viii have to be met which have
not been considered in the launch ques.
ton 1t is, however, only fair to state
that the vessel is the first of its kind
and so far is only experimental.
