Sea Telegraphy for Ships.

M. Menusier has proposed a plan of
telegraphy for the use Of ships at sea.
Upon his cable, which he would lay
from the French coast to New York,
with branch to Panama, he proposes
to ingraft at distances Ct about one hun
dred and eighty miles, representing the
ships daily sailing distance, vertical Ca
bles rising to the surface where the ends
may be held up by buoys. To the main
cable he would also add secondary cables
thirty or sixty miles long, forming cross
cables, like great arms stretching out on
either side, to which verticle cables
would be attached, each to be held in
place by its surface buoy. Thus it
could rarely happen that ship keeping
on the regular course would not be able
to meet one of the buoys every day.
Each buoy should have its number and
it's place marked on special chart. If
a.ship wishes to send dispatch, it at
taches the wire OF its own telegraphic
apparatus. one to the cable that is held
up by the buoy, the other to the buoy
itself, which is of course in communica-
tiou with the earth currents. M. Men
usier processes to solve the principal
difficulty i'll the way Of the successful
operation of his invention, which is that
of fixing tie buoys SO that they shall
not be removed by storms, but declines
to make his plans public on account Of
the defective condition of the patent
laws. He has, however, explained it to
competent navigators, and they are said
to regard it as practicable.

A ReprOaea 10 -ANncricaM Hotels.
n. Y. Sun.

The Lancet of Londor, one of the fore
most medical journals in the world, warns
all travellers of the dangers which it says
attend heightened stay in an American
or Canadian hotel. The plumbing arrange
ments are declared to be defective in many
cases, and conspicuously bad in others.
Frequently there are no traps at all under
the basins, or, where there are traps. the
pattern is said to be such as to afford no
safeguard against the Introduction of
sewer gas into the apartment.
Indeed, it would seem that even a short
sojourn in a hotel of this description would
suffice to SOW the seeds of disease; and q
correspondent of the Lancet AYERS that he
was made seriously i'll by sleeping only one
night in room where there was a fixed
basin communicating directly with the
sewer without any intervening trap. He
kept the windows wide open, and filed the
basin with water on retiring, but the whole
of the water was sucked out through the
waste pipe during the inight, and the
presence OF sewer gss was plain in the
morning. ut is dangerous,'' says the wri-
ter, ''for any adult to reside in a hotel with
such imperfect sanitary arrangements
and the air of the room would not i'm prob
ably cause death to delicate child.''
Now. this is a matter about which Amer
lean hotel keepers should be very sensi-
tive. We do not mean that they should
resent these statements as being untrue OF
exaggerated, for we believe there is good
deal too much truth in them. But ou1
landlords should be sensitive enough to
such criticism to reform the evils thus
pointed out. It is no answer or excus to
say that we know of scores OF hotels in
Great Britain which are no better or very
much worse; or to point to tbs numerous
hotels on the continent of Europe whose
sanitary cOndi ion is shameful. The cues
ton now under discussion concerns oul
| own hotels; and there ought not to be q
single one in the United States of which
the statements of our distinguished medi
cal contemporary could be true.
AS matter of fact, we have reason te
believe that there are many hotels in this
very city which are anything but health re-
sorts-hotels, indeed, which people had
better keep out of, if they want to keet
| their health.

GIVING STEWART TAFFY,

Hon. J. Proctor Knott, of Kentucky,
is delightful raconteur. He has a
world of good stories, and he spins
them in a way that betters them. Seat
ed among party OF friends, one day,
he related one which isn't among the
worst:
A number of years ago a party of
hentucl1ians swooped down upon New
York city "a-seein' OF the sights" Sew
eral of them were from the interior Of
the State and had never been as far
East before, while the leader, a shrewd
city citizen, GLIB Of tongue, piloted the
party through ways that were queer
and tricks that were equally so. They
happened upon Mr.. Knott at one of the
hotels and claimed him for their own.
He was the very man they We're looking
for. Every sight of the great city had
been seen except A. L. Stewart, the
merchant prince. wouldn't he intro
duce them?" The hero of Duluth pro-
tested that Stewart knew nothing and
cared less for country Congressman
like himself, and had to decline. He
finally convinced the delegation that he
couldn't accompany them, and they
filed slowly out of his room, after ex-
pressing determination to seek out
and see the elephant on their own hook.
Later in the evening Mr.. Knott sat in
parquette seat in Niblo's Garden, in
tently watching the show. While gaz-
ing around at the strange faces that
lined the seats and peered from the gal
leries, he was startled by bow from
the most elegant box in the tier. An
other head, dimly outlined against the
rich interior, CONTESTED, and his embar-
rassment and curiosity became painful
in its intensity A third person nodded
and smiled, and then only did he recog-
nize his Kentucky friends lolling around
in the luxurious quarters perfectly at
ease. At the head Of the delegation was
A. T. Stewart himself, patronizing and
attentive
"How did you manage it," asked the
Congressman of the leader next day.
easy enough. We deliberately
walked into his private Office after leav-
ing you and introduced ourselves. We
went on to say that we were from Ken
lucky and had arrived in New York on
an extensive pleasure trip, during which
we expected to see majority of the
great men America had produced. We
elaborated with glowing phrase and
rounded period, and all that, how we
had seen Grant and the other big dogs
at Washington, but it was the unani-
nous ver( jet of the party that we
shouldn't return home until we had seen

art. The old gentleman was carried
away with the liberal supply of taffy,
and when we left it was only on condi-
ton that we should return later in the
afternoon. We did SO, and found an
elegant supper spread in the private
Office, after eating which we were whirled
away in carriages to Niblo's Garden,
and led into the private box where you
saw us.
