SEA AND SHORE.
SalvadOr's Toy Navy Is Now in
the HarbOr.

centTates its entire naval force in one for
eigu port. San Francisco is particularly
honOred in this respect, for at the present
time the entire navy of Salvador is lying at
the wharf at Bryant street. The navy in
question consists of the steamer Cuscatlan,
built in this port in 1890, and when at home
carrying two Calling guns. The battery
has been left at home, and the navy has
been sent to this port in order to have an
other deck put in her. She is vessel of
about 100 tons burden, and is rugged as a
two-masted schooner. Before leaving this
port she will be fitted with q 40-pounder
breech-lOading rifle.
