is enough TO condemn this supsrAueus

STEEL FOR SHIPs.-Several iron
and steel manufacturers were before
the Congressional Committee on
Saturday, to testify as to the best
material for use in the construction
of our new navy. The testimony Of
Mr.. Wells, of Pittsburg, and Mr..
Park Of that place, each representing
firms that manufacture steel, recon-
mended "carbon steel" the former Of
terrible strength Of 10000 pounds to
the square inch and the latter Of 90, 900
pounds to the square inch. Mr.. Park
informc the committee that there is
now about S25, 900, 900 invested in the
'crucible" and "open hearth" steel
manufacture in this country. He also
said that the government need not be
uneasy in regard to procuring all the
low carbon cast steel required for any
number Of vessels that it may deter"
mine 70 build fer Its navy. On being
asked what would bS the probable re-
suit in case q ship, the hull of which
was made Of such steel as he recon-
meDded, would come in collision with
another vessel or run against rocks Al
compared with the result vita one
made from the ship iron now n'gen-
eral use, his answer was that while
indentations or bulgss as large as
several large sized hogsheads might
be made in the steel hull withSut
producing any break in the stee
plates, he believed an iron ship under
the same circumstances would sink b.
reason OF the iron plates, for want o
ducti lity, breaking into pieces. Mr.
Park informed the committee that oul
home capacity for the production o.
low carbon cast steel suitable for navy
vessel hulls considerably exceeds that
Of England, Scotland and Wales.

thence it grew and aJeead, all At-
tempts to control the flames seeming
useless. The fire literally burned it
self out. Eighty shoe firms three
banks, and many other buildings were
destroyed. Only three shoe firms are
left in the town Of HAverhill. The
loss of life is thought to be small, only
three or four but the names are not
given, and there may net be 30 many.

many warnings to those who have es-
capped them to be careful 10 be fully
prepared to extingulsh the flames
promptly when they do make their
appearance. 1t il manifestly wrong
for the head OF . Ere department to
hesitate to call out a large force at
every alarm, for it is mestly the small
flame as at Haverhill, not bigger than
q mans hand, in which nearly all great
fires first make their appearance.
That is the time the apparatus and
men should be on hand ready to sx.
tinguish it while that can be done
without great trouble when there Is
plenty of force willing to work, before
the flames get SO hot as to be unap-
Proachable.

UHHEALTHFuL FILTERED WArER.

UNHEALTHFUL FILTERED WATER.
An Edinburg professor sounds the
alarm on this subject, and declares
that it would not be safe for any
chemist to say that, by any process of
filtration or chemical treatment, a
contaminated and unwholesome water
can be rendered safe. He is alto
gether opposed to filtration, deeming
filters sources of contamination. Thus,
he says, when couple of gallons of
water, for example, are passed through
a filter-be it charcoal, a sponge, or
any other material-the intention is
that all impurities shall be left in the
fltering material; this goes on day
by day, and in the course of a short
time the suspended matter in the
filter will be in a state of putrescence;
and as this proceeds for years, unat-
tended to, the consequences must
necessarily be quite serious.

THE WHEAT PRODUCT OF CALI
FoRNIA AND OREaoN.-The wheat
product Of California and Oregon il
something wonderful. 1t will be re.
membered by many of our older OBJ.
servers Of political events that in
1S47.e, when California and New
Mexico were about to be added TO the
Union by the Democratic party, that
the great leaders Of the Wing party
of that day, denounced each and
every step taken in this direction by
Mr.. Polk's Cabinet and described the
lands of California and all the region
iucluded in the proposed acquisition
lying on the Pacific coast as rocky,
barren lands that were not worth hav-
ing. In view of this, now that the
country seems likely to extend its
limits further into Mexico, or to be
considering the propriety of taking
such an advance movement by pro-
jecting railroads into the more north
ern States of that country, it is well
to learn what has been the outcome
Of former acquisitions. 1t is not
generally understood that Oregon has
made such large shipments of grain.
The Journal Of Commerce, of Port
land, Oregan, speaking of the seasons
shipments from that port says that
one hundred and nine vessels have
already cleared there are thirteen in
port loading and to load, and forty
six more en- route, making total of
one hundred and sixty-eight vessels.
The capacity will not exceed 100000
tons, which will leave large surplus
of wheat still on hand for shipment.
There viii, of course, be other vessels
ordered hither, but whether sufficient
to move the surplus is an unanswera-
BILE problem as yet. 1t advises farm
ers who are still holding wheat to sell
If they can realize SLIGO per GENITAL.
Respecting the probable exports of
wheat for next season, the Portland
Standard makes the following state
ment FThe amount of unsold wheat
in Eastern Oregon and Washington
this year is S,736, ,267 bushels--all OF
1tready for export. The acreage Of
1882 will be nearly double that Of
1881, and more has been used fol
seed and home consumption as con.
sequence, thus reducing the proper.
tiOnate amount for export somewhat
This amount has all been raised il
those districts Immediately contigu'
GUS to the railroad and river trans
portation lines. Several other sources
will be tapped this year by the exten,
sion of railroads, and the StGaddrG
considers it safe estimate to state
that the surplus wheat for export il
Eastean Oregon and Washington
next season will be fully 100000
bushels, and this raised by popula
tion Of less than 100000 persons"

TIE Republican managers of the
negro element of the party in this
State have exhibited their usual assis
duty in securing the assessment of
the cir colored brethren. We suppose
there are very few entitled TO vote
whose names are not on the assess
ment lists, while many have doubtless
been placed thereon who lack the
qualifications OF age or residence re-
quired for electors. Ia their zeal
perhaps they have neglected to inquire
how many upon whose votes they RELY
are convicts, OF if they know Of any
such may have hoped this disqualified
tion would escape the attention of
Democrats, and they could, by being
assessed and paying a tax, vote all
the same. Fortunately, we are not
left to the honesty of these managers
in this regard, for if that was the case
every convict, minor and non. resident
that they could get TO the polls would
vote the Republican ticket. The
criminal records, however, are opep
to inspection and it is within the
range of possibility that some curious
Democrat, from mere curiosity, if
from no other motive, may take q
fancy to ascertain heW many conyicts
have been assessed and unthoughtfully
disclose the discovery he has made.
Oh, if Democrats would Only learn
nothing and forget all they ever knew
or heard, what a sweet time the Re-
publicans would have. But ths
Democrats won't forget and will b.
prying into matters, and sometime
ascertaing something's that the Re
pub'icans had hoped would not b
discovered. .-DelaasarSan.

ANOTHER INDUSTRY FOR WHINING
ToE.-It is currently reported that an
agent for an English smelling works
has been in this city and after view
ing all the surroundings and securing
the prices of land and location, has
written to his principals that Will
mington is decidedly the most ad-
vantageous place for the building Of
works for this industry, new to Will
mington, and, we believe, to the
country. Wilmington certainly offers
great inducements to those who are

A Modern Fable.

Little Red Riding Hood having made
cake all by her own self, was sent by
her proud and happy mother to carry it
to her grandmother. Upon her way
she encountered a wolf, who, repre-
senting himself TO the credulous child as
the old lady's Newfoundland dog, so
won upon her confidence that she dis
closed to him the object of her mission.
Then" said the crafty wolf, 81 will run
on ahead and pull the bobbin that the
latch may go up" The silly child, be-
ing touched with gratitude, accepted
his services, and gave the animal nice
big piece of her cake; and the wolf per-
ishing miserably of indigestion long
before he had reached the old DANES
cottage, Little Red Riding Hood OBJ
tanned red tipet and muff from his
skin, and was enabled to soothe her
grandmother's declining years with the
bounty paid for his scalp.
MoRAL.-This fable shows that cum
ming vice should never attempt TO take
the cake from confding innocence.

A Bashfui Mans Dilemma.

A horse-car is bad place for bash
full or nervous man. Such one was
noticed recently, as he was very polite
man, too, which somehow seemed to
aggravate the case, although the reason
why it should do so is not quite evident.
He was a little near-sighted, also, and
when an aged woman got out and drop
ped particularly diseraceful handker-
chief on the floor, the bashful man did
not perceive the article for a moment,
although the rest of the passengers did,
and bawled out unavailingly at the un-
conscious owner. But when the modest
man did see it-being also as above
stated. polite and gentlemanly person
he picked it up at once and smilingly
offered it to the young lady who sat OPP
posite. The look she gave him made his
spinal marrow feel coolly, and when he
passed it in turn to ali the ladies in the
car, and got only shifts aud Well, ]
declare I" and What an idea |" from
each in turn. he looked such picture OF
hopeless misery that it was quite pitt
full. And when a rough, brutal man at
the other end of the car called out,
You'd better keep it yourself /" the
bashful man smiled feebly, said, Every
likely" and stuffed the rag into his
pocket, and then attempted the feat OF
reading his paper upside down. And
when he left the car, the people who
looked after him saw him pause at an ash
barrel on the sidewalk. drop something
into it, and ram it down with his cane.
