The Governor Ames.

We heard an ancient mariner talk Of naval archi-
lecture,
We can't give his very words, but here's the sub
stance Of his lecture:
"Iye seen all sorts of vessels in Inv wa.derings
round the world
Both under sail and moored in port, with all their
canvas furled:
I've seen luggers and feluccas an know Just what
they mean,
And ! made one voyage in craft they called
barEentine;
Eve handled many others, foreand-afters and
square-riggers,
And seen some rugged by savages and Polynesan
niggcrs,
And Chnec junks and lorchas, too, and E>qui-
mauN kayaks
And they all have some good idees, whites, Mongo
lans and blacks.
But my poor old head can't figure by dead reckon
ing nor by luna
What kind o. looking vessel is this new ivc-mast-
ed schooner
My idea of a schooner was always a two muster;
Later on they've built EN- larger and modelled to
sail faster.
Eve heard of some with three masts and and
then with four,
But never dreamed that any crank would think
OF adding more
Now here's one launched Tie other day, sure a.
I'm alive,
Her length is nigh three hundred feet they say her
mastS five.
1t makes me think of those old Jokes, forgotten
though long While,
About The down East lumbcrmcn, who built ships
by the mile,
And sawed them OF to order, of any length re
quired,
Thus the owner might put in a. many ma IS aS he
desired.
Now perhaps some younger seaman, who is used
TO modern names,
Might tell me what they call en- AL On board this
Governor hmCs.
There's the fore and main and milHcn na~js-that
runs my list all through:
What in the name of wonder do they call the othel
two:
She's long enough for anything, from figure heac
10 poop,
But how is She sehool er; WHY not iye,maste'
sloop:
l suppose she's not ship because $40 yards arr
slung o'elhcad.
But she ought to sail. considering ali the canya
she can spread.
BY the time nay grand-ons are grow ul, ~ may
he even sooner,
They'll go rushing cross the ocean in a fifteen
maStcd schooner"
