WASHINGTON, June 10.-The North Allan
tic squadron is now getting towards Port
land, and soon may be expected to drop an
chor in the finest harbor on the Atlantic
coast. Although the North Atlantic squad
ron has visited Portland at intervals during
the last forty years, yet these visits have
been far between; so far between that they
have always been the sources of great inter-
est and pleasure. The fleet, which Secreta-
ry Tracy has promised Mr.. Boutelle shall go
to Portland will be more than usually inter-
esting, for the reason that it will be COM
posed of vessels of both the old and the new
styles of naval architecture, of historic,
broadside wooden structures that have borne
gallant parts in our history, and of the new
steel navy which will, every one hopes, bear
noble part in the conflicts of the future.
OF the old navy, there will be the Essex. the
Pensacola; of the new navy. there will be
the magnificent Baltimore, and the Dolphin,
smaller, but more familiar to the minds of
readers of the papers.
When the North Atlantic squadron was
last in Portland harbor, on the occasion of
the OLD Tennessee, last Of the old wooden
vessels of the "first rate" All these have
passed away, and there are in the navy at
this time no wooden "frst rates." The five
first rates are the Chicago. the Philadelphia,
the Newark, the San Francisco, and the Bal
timore, all of them steel ships of the new
navy. The Pensacola, which has just re-
turned to this country from its cruise to At
rica with the scientific expedition sent to At
RIGA to observe the eclipse, will probably 90
to Portland She is one of the second
rates." and is very famous vessel. She is
a sister ship to the Richmond, Brooklyn and
Hartford, all of which saw hard fighting un-
der Farragut, the latter being his flagship in
one of the most famous battles in our
naval history. The Pensacola was not with
her sister ships at the battle of Mobile Bay
but she was in the passage of the forts on
the Mississippi when New Orleans was tax
en- in 1862. In that battle she received about
twenty shots, and bore herself with the
greatest honor. The Essex, the Kearsarge,
and the Galena are third rates." as is also
the Dolphin, which is unlike them in being
modern steel vessel. These third rates"
are of the same class as the Swatara and
Yantic, which were with the Tennessee
when the fleet was last in Portland narbor
OF course the old Kearsarge is the most fa-
nous of these vessels. With her Winslow
fought and sunk the Confederate cruiser AL
ALBANIA off Cherbourg, France, while the
people of two nations looked on and an
plauded the splendid display of American
val0r and seamanship.

Small Pox on Shipboard.

BOSTON, June 10.-The schooner Lizzie
Lane of Searsport. Me-, which arrived in
Boston, May 2S from Porto Rico, is in quar-
antine at Deer Island, and her captain was
summoned by the board of health this morn
ing on charge of entering the port with a
case of small pox aboard and not reporting
it to the port physician. He failed to come
to hand and the vessel was visited by ply
sician. 1t became evident that the captain
was not culpably guilty, for 1t appeared that
the small pox patient had frequently been
afflicted with chills and fever and the cap
tain thought that the present attack was a
revival of that disease. The captain was

THE CANADIAN PACIFIC
Have Purchased the New Brunswick
Railway.
- : ; = = >
Halifax Chronicle saws:

udlilhA OuTOulCl6 says.
Since the visit Of the Canadian Pacific and
New Brunswick railway magnates here,
nearly two weeks ags, rumors have been put
in circulation that the Canadian Pacific have
decided to formally take over the New
Brunswick and thus secure line of their
own from ocean to ocean and controlled by
themselves. When questioned on Saturday
about the matter, @. w. Weldon, solicitor of
the New Brunswick railway, said it was
fact that a transfer had been agreed upon
and that he expected to go to Montreal this
week to meet representatives of the two cor
porations and complete the arrangement of
the details. The change here is regarded as
very important one in many respects. 1t
will in all probability mean the removal from
this city. to Montreal Of the principal New
Brunswick railway offices. As this latter
road controls valuable wharf property at
Sand Point, on the western side of the har-
Dor, and as Mr.. Van Horne, Sir George Ste
phens and others spent most Of their time
while here recently examining this property,
it is believed that the Canadian Pacific con-
template important improvements for termi-
nal facilities.
