With the death of Hobart Pasha Turkey
loses an officer of remarkable abilities at a
time when she feels almost as much as ever
the need OF wise counsel and executive abili-
ty. AS the organizer, almost the creator of
the Turkish navy, he earned and re-
celved high honors, and was foremost of the
group of foreign Adventures, who have
won the confidence of the Sultan. Americans
will be less interested in the fact that he was
an Englishman of noble birth, who was ia
nous for gallant achievement in the Queens
navy as early as the time of the Crimean
war, then in the part he took during our Civ
IL war. When our war broke out in
1861, the the future marshal of the
Turkish Empire was known as Commander
Augustus G. Hobart, retired officer of the
British navy. Being in Strengthened finan-
clal circumstances and fond of adventure, he
went into the business of blockade running,
under the assumed name of captain Rob-
erts." He was the most successful blockade
runner that sailed out of Nassau, and made
ten successful trips to the blockaded ports
of the Confederacy. The captain who sue
ceeded him was captured on his first voyage.
In 1867 he went into the service of the Turk.
The Turkish navy was in a most deplorable
condition, but he succeeded in few years
in bringing it into state of great efficiency.
For his successful and adventurous career
he was pre-eminent among the military adj
venturerS of Europe he was lieutenant of
the Queens yacht at the age of %, the COM
mander of British man of war at 80, sue
cessful blockade runner at 40, and mar
shall of the Turkish Empire at Ga, the time
of his death.

Canada's sudden withdrawal of her asser-
ton as to the Interpretation of the treaty of
lS1Sis attributed to prudence and the prompt
ings of the Imperial government. It may be
that Sir John Macdonald's government took
this step much more readily because piqued
at the result of the Nova Scotia elections.
The Dominion government has been to great
expense and trouble in fitting out cruisers to
protect the fishermen of the Maritime Prov
inces from the encroachments of their rivals
of Gloucester and Portland. Nova Scotia
fishermen have been the direct and chief re-
cipients of this attention. For this service
the Dominion is spending 100000; it also
gives the fishermen an annual bounty OF
100000. But right in the midst of the
trouble, with the Dominion cruisers yet chas-
ing the Yankees from the coast, the people
of Nova Scotia, and especially the fisher
men, have fastened to declare that they
want nothing from the Dominion government
but leave to go. 1t would be but in accord
ance with human nature for the authorities
at Ottawa to let Nova Scotia and her obstrep
erous fishermen deal with the Yankees on
her own account.

THE LARGEST SCHOONER.

This year the largest schooner in the
world, vessel of 400 tons, has been launch
ed at Bath. Less than year ago, next to
the largest wooden ship ever built in the
United States was launched at Rockport
Both of them are worthy products of the
State that builds wooden ships for the world.
But these immense vessels are not the pro-
auctions of an easy and normal development
in the art of ship-building they are the re-
suits OF keen competition that is gradually
forcing wooden ships off the ocean. Now
only the sailing vessels that carry the larg-
est cargoes are accounted profitable, so low
have freights been reduced by the competi-
ton of iron steamers. The problem now is
to get the greatest carrying capacity with
the simplest style of rigging, so that the YES
sci can be handled with the smallest posi-
BILE crew. The Frederick Billings, the large
ship launched last summer, is of enormous
carrying capacity; but she is a square rugged
vessel and requires a large crew. So it is not
surprising that no smaller vessels are on the
stocks in Maine, and that this year it is the
largest schooner that is launched. The
schooner has for some time recommended
itself for the cheapness with which it can be
handled. By increasing the size the carry
ing capacity has been enlarged with no pro-
portienal increase in the cost of handling
The result of this effort at economy has been
the evolution of the four masted schooner,
of which the Sarah Lawrence, just launched
at Bath, is the largest specimen. But in spite
of their ingenuity in planning new kinds of
craft the shipbuilders of Maine have been
unable to hold their own. The business de-
preston that has caused suffering and stag
nation on the Clyde has made itself felt in
the yards of Maine; and the tonnage built
in this State has decreased steadily for the
last few years. Yet even under such circum-
stances there are some men in Congress who
would unite with Mr.. Dunn Of Arkansas, to
take away the last barriers that protect this
industry, leaving the vessels of Bath to an
unequal rivalry with the tramp vessels of
England, and allow the art of wooden ship
building to be forgotten in the State where it
has attained its highest perfection.

The Chinese, it is said, propose to build in
Washington mansion for their legation.
1t is to be no cheap tenement but struc-
ture worthy of both the wealth and fantas-
tic ideas of the great empire. Half mil
lion dollars will be invested, and the fashion
able portion Of the city has been selected
for the site. Carpenters and masons will be
imported from China to do the work, and it
is expected that the most remarkable of
Queen Anne cottages will be no curiosity at
all compared with the one-story palace that
these foreign workmen will construct. No
cheap American labor will be hired; and
when the structure is completed, high wall,
in place of the usual garden fence, will baf-
fle the curiosity of western barbarians.

Yesterday Queen Victoria began the fifth
eth year of her reign. Few English soyer-
eigns have ruled longer; none have merited
more the respect of the English people. Con-
trasted with the conservatism of some pre-
vious reigns hers has been one of startling
changes; contrasted with the democratic
innovations, which the future promises, it is
likely to stand in history as a period of re-
markable quiet and stability.

THE WRECK OF THE OREGON"
ono of the ssFulda,s" Passengers
Interviewed by N sDcmOcrat"
Reporter.

Last night Mr.. Peter Welte, a resident
of Silver Reef, returned from visit to
Fatherland, and as the gentleman was a
passenger on the steamship "Fulda,"
which picked up the passengers OF the
Inflated "Oregon," DEMOCRAT reporter
to-day obtained some interesting facts
concerning the wreck OF the great Cunard
ocean liner.
The theories in regard to the sinking
OF the "Oregon," Mr.. Welte says, are so
numerous and conflicting that it is as
much OF a mystery to him as to any Salt
Laker, and it is doubtful whether the in
vestigation in progress will be able to
fully and satisfactorily clear up the mat
ter. The idea that collision with an I'M
known schooner caused the catastrophe
is accepted by some, but the officers OF
the "Oregon" declare that no small craft
could have inflicted such damage to their
magnificent iron vessel without instantly
going to the bottom herself and thus far
no signs of sunken schooner have been
apparent. That the "Oregon" was the
victim OF a dynamite explosion is ac-
copied by others, but this theory, like
the first one, is not yet corroborated by
any substantial evidence. One thing,
however, is apparent, that the doors or
iron bulkheads, which divide the several
compartments OF the vessel, were open at
the time the accident happened, and this
will doubtless reflect severely upon the
"Oregon" officers.
The morning of the wreck the sea was
rs smooth as mill pond, and had il
been otherwise, or rs rough as it was the
Saturday night before, Mr.. Welte gives
it rs his opinion that many OF the
passengers transferred to the "Fulda'
must have been lost. Before the
" Fulda" steamed up many oil
them had already been transferred
to schooner laden with timber, but
when within quarter OF mile tho
"Fulda's" life boats were launched and
the passengers and crew brought safely
on board, the transit occupying foul
hours time. Notwithstanding the calm
sea, in jumping from the "Oregon" to
lhe life boats many OF the women fel
overheard and were only fshed on
with the greatest difficulty. Tn,
commands OF the officers, the yelling o
the men, and the shrieks of women ant
children combined, made wild and ex
citing scene, which those who witnesse,
will never be likely to forget, and Mr.
Welte declares it to be an experience he
would not like to be subject to again

him OF being the author of "a Poetic

lished in Wednesday issue. The effects
OF his last attack of literary jim does
not appear to have entirely worn off last
evening. and smoothing back his long

the composition of said "poem" it simply
prevaricates, fdlsifes or LIES, and if we knew
the author of the DEMOCRAT paragraph above
quoted we would give his name to the pub
lie, and in that event we venture to say he
would never dare be seen in Ogden again
