"The New Propaganda" is the subject Of
philosophic essay by John Cotton Dana in
The Current Of July 4. He notes the
gradual breaking away of the world from
the trammels OF conservatism, and urges
that in education the policy of teaching the
young TO think should be more positively
pursued.

4, writes entertainingly about "Names,n

Il. March, composed by John Wlegand
and dedicated to John 5. Kountz, late COM
mander-in-chief, by Ign. Fischer, Toledo,
Ohio. The title page bears very fine pOr-
trait of the late commander, with n setting
Of appropriate military emblems--banuers,
cannon, drum corps at the head of the

music is very spirited, with majestic
melody running through the entire march.

"1he highest Attninabic speed.",

The forty-eighth Congress near the close
Of the last session authorized the Secre-
tary Of the Navy to begin the construction
Of four new ships-two cruisers Of not less
than three thousand tons, one heavily
armed gtnboat Of sixteen hundred tons,
and one light gunboat of eight hundred
tons.
The New York Herald, which is nothing
II not naval, bcgs all who may be con
ccrned in the designing and constructing Of
these ships to remember that Congress de.
monds that they shall have "the highest
attainable speed"
The Herald says It is advised that Secre-
tary Whitney is studying the question of
these new ships, which, It says, he will I've
responsible for, and It most impressively
urges him to insist with those who may
design them that they shall have what Con
gress has thus cOmmanded-"the highest
Nttainable speed"
In providing for "the highest attainable
speedn It is not to he assumed that Con
gress intended to sacrifice every Other
requisite to that one ldea--rapidlty Of mo-
tion.
II there were no necessity for carrying
stores on II ship-of-war, no need to have
much space occupied by officers and crew
no call, in short, for anything but speed
the hull might be loaded with boilers and
engines, and the ''highest attainable
could he run up to astonishing figures.
Our navy constructed one or two shipi
Of this kind and was at work on two ol
three others when the war closed. They
were intended to run down the blockade
runners. They had immense boiler ca.
pacity and hundred-inch engines, and We
are assured that they attained speed equnl
to the fastest steam vessels Of any kind tba
are now anoat
But such vessels are not required for an,
Of the regular and permanent uses of th'
navy. One of those hundred-inch engine
constructed at the Washington navy yari
at q cost of almost a quarter of a million
dollars has been condemned and partl,
broken up, We suppose the Others hav
met the same fate.
The "highest attainable speedn mean
very inadequate space for officers, crew, ant
stores. 1t means a hull full of power.
means, too, that there shall be no masts
spars, or rigging aloft to offer resistance.
1t will be long time before such ship
can he popularlzed in our navy.

Prof. Nissen,s New Quarters.

Prof Hartvig Nissen's Health Institute is
now well established at its new home, 9O3 Six
teenth street, which is none too large for the
professors patrons. When he found 1t neces-
sary to change to more commodous quarters,
owing TO the increase in the number of patients,
1t wns thought that the new establishment
would furnish ample space for some time to
come, but the popularity of physical culture, as
his business and demand for more room. The
exercise taken under his system is of so light q
nature as not to tire, but at the same time pro-
duces most beneficial results. Ladies' have

Mr.. G. G. ADAMS, acting for the people
of Arizona, has made to the President
strong representation of the 'arful wrongs
inflicted on the peaceful settlers of that
territory by hostile and lmplacabe Indians.
Mr.. Adams has given to the President
certified and authentic list of persons mur-

by these savages. Both these catalogues
are terribly eloquent In their mute sug-

who may be fairly rated as head devil Of

The leakage of the aqueduct bridge is the
cause of considerable grumbling among the
yarsmcn of the upper Potomac and especially
among those who steer ladies parties under the
cver-dripping canal. Formerly II has been
possible to find space wide enough for II
careful Oarsman to go through without wet
ting, but now the bridge has gotten in such n
diladitated state that II Is about impossible to

As n consequence umbrellas and gOssamers are
getting as necessary to an evenings row on the

The REPUBLICAN is sure that It was not
a member of the italian legation, as re-
ported, who was chastised in this city few
days ago for disrespectful treatment of a
lady. It's not improbable that the offender
did not belong TO any Of the foreign lega-
tions, but had, by some irregular means,
provided himself with a card Indicating
that he was an attachc. 1t is stated that a
number of such cards are in possession Of

JULY A, 1855.

This day let songs of gladness
In swelling anthems rise,
And may no note Of sadness
Our joyful hearts surprise.
The deep-mouthed cannon booming,
The merry Ginning bells,
Awake the echoes sleeping
Far down the silent dells.
This day enshrlned in glory,
That gave TO freedom birth;
Embalmed in song and story,
Casts light o or all the earth,
And crowns and thrones are trembling,
Beneath this searching ray,
And men, oppressed, are waking
To meet brighter day.
Upon this day our fathers
Brought fortune, honor, fame,
And on their country's altar
Laid all in Gods great name,
Then TO each other pledglng
All that was held most dear,
They turned with faith to heaven
For strength to do and dare.
Oh cherish, iondly cherish
These memories of the past;
They must not, can not perish
While gratitude shall last,
Then let us ever gather
on freedoms natal day,
And tell the same 'old story"
Ofheroes passed away.
And to our children's children
Repeat the story DER,
And bid them onward bear II
TIL time shall be no more.
Then point them to our banner
That floats O. or land and sea,
And proudly waves in honor
The egis Of the free.
Thus at the shrine of freedom
Let each one yearly bow,
And then with purpose manly
Renew the sacred vow
That from our constellation
No star shall e'er be torn;
Each In It's orbit moving
Harmonious shine as one.

As the managers Of railroad make up
