Born TO BE n Lawyer.


One Of Colonel Bob " Ingersolps stories
is that he found himself alone in the office
one day while as a young man he was
studying law with firm out West. He was
interrupted by the entrance of IL raw
boned. sharp-featured country-woman,
who ambled into the room. leading a
freckled-faced. waterv-eyed ten-year-old
boy by the hand. Air you the lawyer? y
she began. On being answered in the af-
firmatiye she went on TO say that she had
brought her boy Jim to town for the pur-
pose Of binding him out at the lawyerin'
trade"
She was morally certain, she averred, that
jim was a born lawyer, and that all he
needed was u chance. But, madam" OBJ
jected the Colonel, "he is entirely too
young to begin 30 study law" Too
young, indeed" shifted the fond mother,
contemptuously: you don't know jim.
He was Jest born for lawyer Much
amused the Colonel asked her on what
grounds she based her hopes for future
greatness at the DER for her darling child.
"Why," said she, when he was only seven

NEW-NAVY TALK.
MEETING OF THE SENATE COMMIT
TEE ON NAVAL AFFAIRS.
The Naval Board OF Policy Approve Mr..
Baie's BIN for the Construction
ofEight Baftie-ships.
lBr telsrr,ph % ,ns pl.pa.en. ]

WASHINGTON, January i5.-Aspecial meet
ing of the Senate Committee on Naval AZ
fairs was held to-day 90 hear the views OF
the Naval Board OF Policy appointed last
summer by Secretary Tracy to formulate
and report plan for building a navy TO be
commensurate with the dignity and power
OF the nation. Commodore McCann. pre-
sident of the board. Captain sampson.
and Nayal-Constructor Lakewood dit
most of tine talking. They approved
in general terms the bill introduced
by Mr.. Hale authorizing the Presi-
dent to have constructed eight battle
ships, two armored coast-defence vessels,
three gunboats, and five first-ciass tor
pedo-boats. The Policy Board IN their
report to the Secretary will recommend
the construction of % vessels of different
types and sizes. These will be built ac-
cording to the plan Of the board in four
teen years, and will cost, together with
their maintenance during the fourteen
years. $3.50, 600, 900. They say tho cost OK
the maintenance of feet Of vessels such
as they propose would be only one fourth
that Of keeping up fleet OF the same num-
Der of old-style vessels.
Secretary Tracy was before the House
Naval Committee to-day TO give expires
sion to his views concerning the navy. In
substance he said that the time hes come
when this country should build some
fighting vessels OF the first order. Already
we have made quite an advance IN naval
construction. and have built some cruisers
that have proved TO be very useful ships:
but we should begin TO build some armored
fighting vcssels--he did not undertake 10
say how many-as large as the depth OF the
water in our harbors and other condi-
ticns which obtain in this country permit,
and of the most powerful types.
The Secretary had with him some designs
prepared by the Mccain board which EN-
bodied his views OF the kind of ships We
should build. They were not marked out
in absolute detail but contained sufficient
data TO inform the committee sufficiently
as to their general type and probable
efficiency. One Of these vessels Is to
be of 1900 tons, and her design pre-
sents some remarkable features, which
may be more clearly understood by
the non-professional reader from the
statement Of the results they are
expected to give-namely. a speed OF be-
tween q and % knots an hour, the ability
to cruise 10000 miles on one coal supply,
guns equal 10 anything atoat, and bat
terry so arranged as to enable the fire OF the
entire armament 10 be concentrated upon
any point Of the horizon.

The Powdcr-Horn at Williamsburg.

To The Editor Of he Dispatch:
The laudable oTaTt Of the ladies 70 pre-
serve from destruction the historical land
marks Of Virginia is worthy of all praise
aud should have the assistance of all true
Yirginiens. Already the association has
secured the old magazine at Williamsburg
known in colonial history as " The Powder
Horn" and are taking steps to restore it,
so that il may defy the tooth Of time Tor
ages TO come II was very appropriate
that this invaluable relic should be one OK
the first acquired by the association. IL IS
most intimately connected with the his
tory Of the colony and Of the Revolution.
1t was erected in accordance with an act
passed by the House of Burgesses IN No
vembcr. 17i4. in the LIST Of George /. Inc
preamble to the act sets forth the occasion
of lis passage II the following language:
Whereas our late sovereign lady, Queen
Anna. of her grace and bounty, was pleased
to bestow considerable quantity of arms
and ammunition for the service OF this
colony. which are in danger 10 be embeZ-
zlcd and spoiled for want of a convenient
and proper place TO keep them H."
In accordance with this act Governor
| SpotswOOd caused to be erected "a good
substantial house of brick" at Williams
burg. in which the arms and ammunition
Of the colony were afterwards kept.
In April, l775, when Lord Dunmore caused
tho powder to be removed in order 10 pre-
vent It's use BY the patriots, then resisting
the aggressiOns of the British Government
upon the colonies, the people were thrown
into intense excitement, and the Hanover
volunteers, with Patrick Henry at their
head, marched upon the town IN order TO
force the Governor to restore 1t. de
promised TO do so, and an obligation was
! gwen for its value. A little later he caused
spring-guns to be placed in the building.
and party of young men entering 1t on
June 3 l775, were badly hurt bv their ex-
plosion. This produced such excitement
In the town that although the House of
! Burgesses were in session the craven Gov
ernor fed at night and took up his abode
on the Forney, a man-of-war lying at York
town. This was the last of the govern
ment of Virginia under a royal Governor
The POwder-Horn was used as maya
| zine from the time of its erection till after
the Revolution. and from it many gun
and cartridge was issued TO be used against
! the Indians and British in protecting the
/ lives and liberties of Virginians. What
remains Of the venerable structure should
be strengthened. and that which has
crumbled should berestored. and it should
| be guarded a. one of the historical
! treasures Of the State. IL.
