The twenty-iive-ton guns, of which the

Alexandria carries ten, the Sultan eight,
the Superb sixteen, and Temeraire four,

ton guns, of which the lnvincible
carries ten, the Monarch two, and
the Sultan cost 81 lbs. per round per gun.
Yhe Penelope, which alone carries 0.ton
guns, has eight of them, which were dis
charged at a cost of 20 los. per round per
gun. The Monarch and the Blttern each
fired Gl.ton gun, the cost being 81 los.

Cygnet have two Gi.pounders, each, the cost
OF discharging which is lSs. per round per

Every one, however, seems to be pictur-
esquo in bathing costume. The young
women never look so handsome us when
they step lightly and with untettered
limbs down to the embraces of the sea and
emerge from the rolling wall of water.
Their red caps on the blue water make
spots of color to delight the painters eye
and the unconstrained grace OF their atti,
tudes is something never seen in the cramp-
ing confines of fashionable dress. They
have life and energy of movement in
keeping with their unicttercd freedom; and
here is one running with no unequal pace
i'll race with n young man, whereas in q
trailing dress she would have been helpless
in the contest.
The young men are almost equally inn.
proved by the revelation of their figures,
and some OF them look like asthetes ready
for the Olympic games, Here are couple,
whose suporabundanco of muscle is stmu.
lated by the bath and the vigorous air to
the necessity OF run, and with elbows
pressed to the sides they start out for mile
race along the sands. Neither do the young
monopoliac all the spirit and enjoyment.
! The elders seek the embraces of the surt
with almost equal eagerness, and one
of the most charming and unique figures
OF the scene is u metron with hair of u
soft gray, who cmcrgcs from the water with
sparkling eyes and u colori in her checks and
goes smiling in to change her dripping
garments, After the bath, the long stretch
of hard beach invites to walk with the
waves washing at the feet, the sandpipers
iluttcring in the edge of the foam, and the
endless promenade of white-sailed ships
drifting by. There are the timbers of the
wreck, sticking out ofthe sand to be reached
and passed, and here and there is an UNI
brella planted in the sand, under which ,
couple OF opposite sex are conversing il
close contiguity. One does not stare at tn,
halt.shy faces thus seen, and is happy thai
youth and love should have its hour in 81
charming a scene.-lProvidence Journal.

Interesting Discovery in the Rocky Noun

A party of Helena Montana, gentlemen,

the gate of the mountains, report some
very wonderful discoveries, which will add
immensely to the already great attractions
of that remarkable region. While drift.
ing la2ily through the canon admiring the
beautiful scenery overhanging both sides
OF the river, a band of mountain
sheep were discovered high up on bench
of the precipice, and landing was made
with the object of u c)ld-blooded
violation of the game law and of making
an addition to the already large assortment
of trophies of the chase of the well-knOWn
Nimrols of the party. After climbing sew
eral hundred feet to the bench upon which
the animals had been seen, close and
cautious scrutiny failed to discover the
sheep; but one Of the hunters came acct

trance to cave, and with plenty of time
at their disposal, the party concluded to
make explorations. The entrance was

abrupt turns. After following the opening
some fifteen feet, with guns at full cock, on

were forced to withdraw, as it became toe

Providing themselves with plentiful
supply of pine knots, another attempt was
made, and very soon the party found them
selves in an immense chamber of the cave
The imperfect light failed to show tn,
height OF the roof but by pacing it was
found that the room was about seventy
five feet wide by nearly two hundred fee
long, irregular in form, and with rough
uneven floor. The action of the water il
plainly discerned in the cavern, .stalactite

Thelittlc South American republic, which

think or say of rs, short Of actual Insult

We arc In the position Of the big dog, who

of the others. But since the practical
cessation Of the war against Peru by Chill
guerrilla bands in the former country have
been harrassing the invaders, who now in
return threaten to reduce the republic Of
Peru to mere province of their own coun-
try. In pursuance Of such intention the

sands Of helpless men, women and children
turned out to starve. The Chilians, in a
word, are initiating the Apaches in atrocity
in their determination to wipe Peru out Of
existence as a separate nation. Not word
of protest do we hear from the United
States. We can grow eloquent ov9r the
crime of the ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of Poland, cry
with Ireland and sympathize with Egypt,
but with reference to this greater wrong
under the shadow Of our own flag and in
face of our boast that we are the
friends of humanity we remain as dumb
and listless as oysters. To see nation re-
duced to bondage in our own hemisphere
after all our efforts in the cause of freedom,
is absurdly inconsistent, and If the govern
ment wants an opportunity to do one real
good deed, which shall not only prove n
lasting precedent in this new world, but
add UNNECESSARILY to our fame and pres
tige, it is presented in the present attitude
of Chilli towards Peru. Our ministers
should be instructed to protest at once
agar ST tho continuance OF Chili's conduct
towards her stricken foe and offer an hon
orable basis of settlement which both gov
crnments should BIO compelled to accept
and comply with at once.
