repairs. 1t would be sad day for hostile
feet to endeavor to enter Portsmouth harbor.
Just outside the docks lie several old wooden
ships now discarded from the navy They are
used as training-ships for naval recruits-some
for war-ships, other for torpedo-boats.
The dockyards themselves arc a most inter-
esting sight They are very old, but have been
SO enlarged from time to time until now they
are so extensive that it is quite an undertaking
merely to look over them.
Here many vessels are built r. NJ. S. Royal
Sovereign was lsnched from here, and also
many of the best class: besides. all sorts of re-
pairs and Furnishings such as blocks, anchors,
guns, etc. are made in the different depart
ments. Everywhere groups of busy workmen
are engaged in some occupation. When
visited it, short time ago, nearly 5000 work
men were employed in the different depart
ments of the yards and docks. The whole is
under police surveillance, and visitors are al
lowed only during certain hours, and when ac-
companied by one of these guardians. Two
troop ships, several cruisers, one battle-ship,
and few torpedo-boats were in the dock at
that time; also, one cruiser was in course of con-
structon.
In the navy interest centers about the COM
mander. At present there seems to be no great
commanding personality among the COM
manders Lord Charles Beresford greatly dis
tinquished himself at the bombardment of Alex
andria few years ago, and he is probably the
coming man OF the navy. Two of the Royal
Dukes have chosen the sea as their profession.

FRUIT AS MEDICINE.
A Test by Which the Various Qualities Ma
e.Discoyered.

be Discovered.
noted medical authority of Philadelphia
gives the following test of the medicinal action
of various fruits: He says, however, that no
edible fruit has strict medicinal effect, but
operates by assisting the natural tendencies Of
the system. Under the category of laxatives,
oranges figs, tamarinds, prunes, mulberries,
dates nectarines and plumbs may be included !;
pomegranates, cranberries, black berries, su.
machberries, dewberries. raspberries, barberries,
ounces, pears, wild cherries and medlars are
astringent; grapes, peaches, Strawberries,
whortleberries. prickly pears, black curTants
and melon seeds are diuretics; gooseberries,
red and white currants pumpkins and melons
are refrigerants, and lemons, lines and apples
are refrigerants and stomachic sedatives.
Taken in the early morning, an orange acts
very decidedly as laxative, sometimes amount
ing to purgative, and may generally be relied
on. Pomegranates are vary re-
stringent and relieve relaxed throat and uvsls.
The bark of the root in the form of . deeoc-
tion, is good anthelmintic, especially obnox-
ious to tape-worm. Figs split open, form ex.
cellent pOultiees for boils and small Assesses.
Strawberries and lemons, locally applied. are Of
some service in the removal of tartar from the
teeth. Apples are correctiyes useful
in nausea. They Immediately remove the
nausea due to smoking. Bitter almonds con-
tain hydrocyanic acid, and are useful in simple
cough, but they frequently produce sort of
urticaria, or nettle rash. The persipmon, or
diospyros, is palatable when ripe, but the green
fruit is highly astringent containing much
tannin, and is used in diarrhea and iDcipient
dysentery. The oil of the cocoanut has been
recommended as q substitute for cod liver oil,
and is much used in Germany for phthisic.
Barberries are very agreeable to fever patients
in the form of drink. Dutch medlars are as
tringent, and not very palstable. Grapes and
raisins are nutritious and demulcent, and very
grateful in the sick chamber. A so-called
" grape cure" has been much landed for the
treatment of congestions of the liver and stom-
ach, enlarged spleen, scrofula, tuberculosis, etc.
Nothing is allowed but water and bread and
several pounds of grapes per diem. Ounce
seeds are demulcent and astringent; boiled in
water, they make an excellent soothing and
sedatve lotion in infiammatory diseases of the
ewes and ears

est naval power on the face of the globe. Not
withstanding the present superiority OF the
British navy, the Government is making im-
portsnt additions each year. A large annual
sum is devoted to the building of new ships
only England's MOTTO on sea is the same as
that of continental nations on land. 1t is the
belief that iii strength only lies peace and

If continental countries are to he blamed for

and destroying that of the enemy.
France, Germany, and Italy have lately
taken considerable interest in their respective
navies. Yet England's position is so supreme
that her navy would probably lie as effective
as that of all three combined. The numbers
would not be so great, but the ships average
better in strength and speed. Besides. the
English are nation of sailors, and with man.
uvering ships as much depends on the COM
mander as on everything else combined.

Uncle s. is not any less ingenious in his later
days.
In warlike defenses nowhere has such radical
change been made in few decades as in the
building of war-ships. When we compare the
clumsy old wooden sail ships of the past with
the heavily plated, fast-saling men-ef-war
to-day, il seems almost incredible that such a
change could have been effected in so brief a
time. Now we see cruisers making % knots

They are, respectively, H.M.Ss. Victory and

lief
The cessation of the noise had, in great
measure, the effect of stupefying me, for my
attention, being no longer occupied by the
chimeras had conjured up, began to flag. All
that now distressed me was the constant expect
alton of the second ringing, for which, however,

as firmly as if they were screwed in wise.

A number of very large troop ships belong to
the service. They can carry 800 troops III

the troops to and from the Colonies and are

There are a number of navy yards where
ships are built. repaired, stores kept aud sea-

Portsmouth and Devonport-the former being
the principal one. 1t is probably the largest

Our Democratic friends are need
lessly worrying themselves about
alleged frauds in the election OF
Senators in some of the Western
States. They will get all the Sena-
tors which the people by their votes
intended they should have; they
should not, and probably will not,
be allowed to have any more. Be
cauae it is the Democratic practice
to steal Senatorships where possible,
it seems to be suspected the Repub-
licans will be guilty of the same
crime. The Republicans in the
Western States in dispute are mere
ly guarding against Democratic
fraud to deprive them of their rights
and is a very wise thing to do in
view of the fact that it is due to a
Legislature stolen from the Repub-
licans in New York that that State
will now have two Democratic
United State Senators.
