ment.

The sensation Of going up hundreds Of
feet suspended by rope into an awful
b.ackness and silence Of the stone that
would crush anything human into a jelly
upon which it fell, Is simply indescrib-
able. The higher one goes the more the
sense of horror increases, until the last
hundred feet are made in the midst Of
q fearful silence, no matter how merry
the party was on starting. IL takes six
minutes TO get to the ton. and 1t feels
like six hours, Arrived there, the step
ling out into air and light reveals pal!id
faces and trembling limbs on the part Of
the excursionists.
The only thing that maintains its pro-
portions is the Capitol, which appears

object in the horizon INTO insignficance.
II see ms rs il there were but two objects
in existence there-the mighty SHAFT
and the glorious dome. Around the
obelisk is wire netting to rescue such
chance tools and garments which the
high wind always prevailing up there
may blow away. The workmen show
the usual indifference Of their craft to
the enormous hight at which they work,
and frequently eat their lunches sitting

Gen. Sherman's Remarkable
Dream,

Gen. Sherman denounces as false the
story Of his once having seated himself
beneath the outrageous shadow of
weeping willow and combed cannon
balls out of his hair while fierce bat
tie was raging. One night, however, he
took refuge in an old farm house near
Milledgeville, Ga, and had fallen into
deep sleep when he was visited by an
exciting dream. He thought the house
in which he slept was surrounded by
band of guerllas, that dug hole be-
meath the wall next which he lay, filled
The hole with powder and touched il of.
The explosion that followed was terrible,
and the General thought he saw him
self flying through the air in sections.
With howl he sprang out Of bed,
rubbed his eyes and hastily dressing
himself went down stairs. 70 his sur
prise his body gaurd was nowhere to be
seen. The inmates of the house were
apparently asleep, but the General felt
that something was wrong, and slipping
quietly out of the back door he walked
cautiously to the barn. He had no soon
er got there than lurid flame shot into
the air, followed by a terrific explosion.
Turning to SET the cause the General
was astounded TO find the side Of the
house he had Just left blown completely
away, and congratulated himself that he
had not been blown away with it. Since
that time the General says he has been
a firm believer in dreams-[New York

OCEAN ETIQUETTE.

Exclusive Society ON Board . Fash
ionablc Transatlantic Steamer.
From the Hartford Courant.
Eighty thousand Americans annually
visit Europe. OF this number 50, 600 sail
from the port of New York. They spend
on an average while abroad 1880
apiece. The greater number are ladies'.
Such is the statement made by a Broad
way travelling commission firm to the
iournalier. The importance Of these an
nual pilgrimages, which are increasing
ye by year, has developed system Of
ocean etiquette that governs the conduct
of what may be termed the best circles
of "marine society" Nowadays the
captain of u crack ocean steamer must
not only be first-Cass sailor, but
must be man Of infinite tact and
method, with thorough knowledge of
what society" requires at his hands.
To sit at 1.-THE right of the captain" at
the table a. once accords TO the occu-
pants of that distinguished honor the
highest place in the social scale on board
a ship, and the position is competed for
with au amount of anxiety that is very
amusing. The senior surgeon and his
assistant (when two are carrie ID act as
deputies, and rank, socially, next in i'm.
portance to the captain himself How
to accommodate the various claims for
this coveted distinction il "a matter of Sc
rious moment. Tie personnel OF the
passenger list is closely searched ut least
forty-eight hours before the vessel sails.
Very often the purser is called into con-
sultation, and the difficulty is finally set
tied by placing card bearing the pas
senger's name upon his or her plate.
From this decision there is no.appeal. 1t
frequently happens, however, that one
or more persons may consider them
selves slighted, and where il is probable
social harmony, the captain escapes by
taking his meals in his own room.
In the first-class ships, as the Bothnia.
the Alaska, the Britannia, the Arizona,
the Baltic and the Spain, which carry
from 100 to 200 cabin passengers apiece,
it is becoming the rule to dress for dim
ner-the ladies' In semI-evenlng toIie [
the gentlemen i'm frock coats. A good
story is told by Purser Neppens, of the
Cunard line: "It is a rule, sir" said a
steward to tall, fair passenger, ito put
on frock coat at dinner" This was
after the vessel had been two days ut
sea. The passenger persisted in wear
ing his suit OF light tweed, and the re.
QuaSt was reiterated on the following
day, which happened TO be q Stormy
one. The vessel lurched heavily, but
the passenger appeared in frock coat
OF exquisite fineness. The contents of Q
plate Of soup, however, soon destroyed
its gloss, and the gentleman retired alb
ruptly in confusion. He said nothing
until Liverpool was reached,
when, placing letter in the hands oi
the purser, he desired him to
give it to the manager OF the line. Iu
