phe Steamer Republic.

During 1he past winter the splendid
steamer Republic has been re-titted and
improved in many ways. The ma
chn,ry has undergone thorough over
ha,llint, and is now in the very best
condition.. The floors of the saloon
have been covered with a magnificent
Brussel. carpet from the establishment
of Granville Worrell, and the main
saloon is furnished with suit Of wal.
nut furniture, handsomely upholstered
in crimson plush, from Moore's, Phila.
delphia.
She has been fully repainted inside
and outside, and presentsa more attrac'
tive appearance than ever. The carry
ing capacity has been increased, so thai
she is now enabled to carry 2,4OO passen'
gers, which is 100 more than heretofore.
She will commence her regular trips t
Cape May on the 2lst of this month, and
will run daily for the ensuing three
months. notwithstanding the many
improvements and increased accOlnmo-
dations, the fare will remain the SAINT
for the round trip as last year, 70 cents
on Sunday, and 81 through the week.
Captain George W. Lackey, who has
commanded the boat since she was
built, will still remain III charge, and
it is safe to say that there is not a com,
mandcr on the river or bay who is more
popular. He is atfable and polite to al
and his skill is too well known to need
commendation The other officers arr
w follows: Pilots, John Currey and
James Benmen Chief Engineer, Nathal
Mattson Second Engineer, Samuel
Ricba dis Steward, William Chandler
Purser, William Allen.

A number Of the business men in the
Eastern part Of the city complain OF
the method adopted by Mr.. Deakyne,
who is the tester OF weights and mea-
sures, in testing scales that weigh from
one to five tons. They say that he uses
a 10O-pound weight, which is conside:ed
very impracticable and is not heavy
enough to properly test scales of such
magnitude. For this operation, which
occupies but few minutes, the officer
charges fee ofSl; and the business
men, while being satisfied that their
scales are ali right, are opposed to hay
ing them tested in such a manner,
which is to their mind no test at all.
A new set of scales were recently ex-
amined and tested with the l0O-pound
weight, hut owing TO the points being
new, such Il light weight had no effect,
but they were pronounced all right and
the fee collected. The action of the in
spector in this particular is considered
very inconsistent, and, as a gentleman
remarked, the inspector might as well
test a dry quart measure with u pint OF
water as to undertake. TO test scales
weighing upwards of live tons with a
hundred pound weight.
