naval battle with losses no heavier than Eng
land suffered in the sinking Of the Victoria at
Tripoli would attract attention by lis san
culinary character Yet the Victoria was lost
in time Of profound peace. and was only the
latest of a long list of English warShips that
have in one way or another. remote from the
shock Of battle. been lost with more or fewer OF
their crews. In the last half-century such dis
astcrs have occurred at the rate of more than
one a year. and the figures representing losses
of life and of capital are truly appalling
From 1Si3 f. the present time no fewer than
lift; eight English warshipS have been lost in
time of peace. IF we except seven of the
number. which met their fate in Arctic cy-
plorat0n we have exactly one for every year
Some of these ships were small and of little
value: in some cases no lives were lost and
some Of the disasters occurred because of
storms or other agencies beyond human con-
troll But some were vast floating fortrcSScs
Of enormous cost; in some instances hundreds
of lives were sacrificed; and some Of the diSaS-
tiers were due to incycuSabc neglect or blum
dcring In nearly all cases, it is gratifying TO
record. the officers and men in the hour Of
sup cine peril displayed the courage discipline
and high manhood that are the glory of the
race.
I'm this catalogue Of disasters there are
several especially notable items. Thus, in
1877 the fine steam frigate Avcngcr went on
the rocks in the Mediterranean Sea, and Of
the go persons aboard only five were saved
Five years later occurred the memorable sink
ing of the Birkcnhcad troopship off the African
coast The ship struck rock. in calm weather,
and soon sank. Without muImur the troops
placed the women and children in the boats
and sent them 10 safety; then drew up in line
ON deck fired parting salute. and went down
with the ship without even breaking ranks
-Four hundred and thirty-eight were drowned
The Orphcus was lost i'll a storm on the New
Zealand coast in SOB. with a hundred and
ninety men. OF the company on the Race
horse wrecked in the Gulf of pcchiIi in 1861
Only nine were saved and ninety were lost in
the burning of the bombay i'll -; River Plate
tbc same wear In 1870 the Captain capsizcd
in the Bay of BiScay. and nearly five hundred
lives were lost and in 1878 the Eurydce met
with similar fate in the British Channel with
q loss of 29S lives. a couple Of years later
the ATLANTA foundcrod at sea, and all the three
hundred aboard were drowned. Terrible loss of
life accompanied the blowing up of the Dotcrcl
in the Straits of Magellan III 1881. Three
ycars later the Wasp went down off the Irish
coast with 81 men and three years after that
another Wasp disappeared with - men be
tween Singapore and Hong Kong. Next, in
1889. the Serpent was wrecked on the coast of
Spain and 173 lives were lost
Thus in these few cases. picked from the
long list more than $500 lives We're lost.
This number must be swelled BY the names

THE roc 1-FRNINE B1TTIE.

1t is announced by "The NcW-YoIk Times"
contesting delegation from Albany County" to
the Democratic State Convention OF this year
This is an interesting piece OF information, and
somewhat important if strictly true. OF course
if the Senator heads the contesting delegation
the opposing regulars will be led by Judge
y. Cady lIclrick the Albany member Of the
Democratic Committee. who is perhaps to be
regarded as the Senator's dearest foe. The
contest Of these two renowned warriors for
supremacy in the State Convention cannot fail
circles all over the country. OF course the
railroads will run extra trains at reduced rates
to the city which is to furnish the battlefield
and the local drugstores will reinforce their
stock of arnica, bandages and things. Ger
t,inlv every Democrat below and above the
Harlem who has sporting blood in his veins
will feel that he cannot afford TO miss so big
an event.
II is too early as yet to decide what the ont
