 But for the Monitor the whole aspect of the war might have been changed and Euro pean interference been attempted. The variety of Capt. Ericssons work is only less remarkable than its intrinsic importance His inventive genius has brought out new discoveries ill every department of mechan- lct, and he has received honors from every country of the world

THE NlPsIc STORY IS DIscREpIrEp
No Information Has Been Received at
 the Navy Department.

the Navy Department
 WASHINGTON, March 9.-At the state and navy departments no information concerning the alleged blowing up of the American war ship Nipsic by the German corvette Olga at Apia has been received

United States steamer Nipsic has been stat c,n. 1 nt Apia fo, some time, and was probably ioii,I by the other two vessels before the a. 6 ,,i occur. reice took place.

The Vandalia and Trenton are also unarmored, and have eight and ten guns respectively, four of which are rified
