The experiments recently made with the
Lay torpedo in the BOsphOrus seem to
have been very successful, though 10
cality was selected that offered every pos
sible obstacle to the test. \ peculiar fea-
ture of the new device is that it is invisi-
bic from the object against which it is d.
rected, while those who are managing ii
can see where it is by means Of shaft
which is exposed TO them. At night the
shaft can be lighted, and the light hidden
so that it can only be seen from the rear.
At rest 1t is exposed only about an inch
above the surface of the water, but in
motion it sinks. The one used in the Bos-
phOrus was twenty-siX feet long, twenty
four inches in circumference, and weighed
ton and half, 1t is capable of carrying
$50 pounds of dynamite. 1t is worked from
above by an electric cable that ii pays
out. and the accuracy with which it can
be steered was shown by the experiment.
The target was an open space, ninety feet
in width. between two small boats
anchored mile and a quarter from shore,
and the torpedo went through the space
on the first trial, Notwithstanding it had
to encounter a strong tide and cross cur
rents. The success of the torpedo was so
great that the Sultan ordered several Of
them. with which he proposes TO dispute
the right Of passage should any foreign
power send its vessels into the BosphOrus.
The English Government is also investi-
eating them with a view to purchasing

and palpable reasons. but there is no ap-
peal from the decision OF the legislative

Is plain. With Maine voting with the
other states the commercial value Of her

Arthur for lsresi d ent.

A few ,nopths ago President Arthur
would not have been numbered amongst
the Presidential possibilities for another
term, but now,if public sentiment as ex-
pressed recently in the New York Times
is to be believed he is at least third in
the race, and if he continues his wise
conservative administration as he is
now carrying it on, in d year from now
he may b" the leading candidate and
he nominated to succeed himself
Neither does it follow that because
President Arthur personally and his
administration were unpopular at first,
that they should always remain so.
The Times article on the forecast of
the next Presidency, it is said, attracted
great attention at Washington, where it
j. generally understood that the presi

WHAT the MeSsrs. DUPONT have dOns
for Wilmington in extending a branch
of the Wilmington ~ Northern Rail
road to the Delaware, and building a
pier in the river at which steam boats
like the Republic can stop and exchange
passengers and freight, is what Will
mington should have done long ago.
If our city, five or six years ago, when
the building of a road to the river was
so strongly urged, had complied with
the popular demand. there is no telling
the advantage such a road would have
been to the business interests of the
city at the present time. With an oh
stinancy almost unaccOuntahle, Will
mington has refrained constructing a
road or rather two roads, one on each
side Of the Christiana, to the Delaware

private individuals has stepped in

cation from the people" Ge-eral
White, Of Pennsylvania, is credited
with saving that if President Arthur d
popularity continues it will be easy to
predict who will be the next NOMINEES
Of the Republican party for the Presi
dency. 1t is already said Of Presiden,
Arthur what was never said of any
other Vice President who became
President, that the wisdom of his al
ministration promises to disarm po-
litic;tl opposition, increase the conf
dence of his friends aud multiply the
advocates for his continuance in the
Presidential chair.
" is nearly year yet until the
Presidential nomination will take place,
and many things may take place in the
meantime. If President Arthur should
be so fortunate as 10 be his own success
sor he will be- the first Vice President
who succeeded TO the Presidency since
NaL Buren,, who it will be remembered
succeeded Andrew jackson. However,
all tha Republicans want is true
man, and that man can be found in
Blaine, Edmunds, Arthur, Logan,
