ANCIENT SEA VOYAGES.

orally Relieved In the Middle Ages.


orally Relieved In the Middle Ages.
The voyages of the ancient ships were
often long,-for example, that OF the
Goths from Sicily in the Mediterranean
around 10 the coast of Holland; and. IL
the writers of the middle ages con-
sidered the statements of such deeds IN
be fabulous, they must have formed
their Judgment more from lacsS OF SINH
lar ability in their own vessels than
anything else. Compare the length
and speedy lines of one of the old gal
leys, and their beautiful proportions.

style of naval architecture of the mid
die ages. A mere glance at the picture
of the Great Harry" or OF some of the
famous ships of the Spanish amanda,
viii show the difference; but when q
comparison is made of the seas for
which the two styles of ships were con-
structed, we may not smile at the
builders of the towering. Paelon-sided
old warriors any more than at the
seemingly improbable voyages OF the
ancients. The blue Mediterranean waa
not the rough Bay of Biscay. nor the
turbulent North sea, or the channel at
Dover; and while the Great Harry or
''Santissima Trinidad, built for the high
choppy seas of the north, might easily
have been outstripped in a voyage on
the inland sea by Ptolemy's ship with is
thousand oarsmen, yet we can hardly
doubt that the galley, with its great
length and small width. would soon
have been racked or twisted 10 pieces in
the rougher northern waters Both
styles of craft were designed for the
waters they were to know. and the an
clients, with their many seaports. where
they could shelter at night or in stormy
weather, might work their way along
coasts and amid shoals and currents
where even a modern steam friRats
would be at disadvantage The duke
Of Northum berland made a voyage 10
India by way of the cape Of Good Hope,
in 1884,, in a ''galuzabra, which was
but a modernized form of galley. q

Mr.. Watterson were those of lunatic
who had just escaped from an insane
asylum. "A tariff fer revenue only"

directly opposed to that of the
Republican party. The Mckinley
bill proposed 10 raise its reve-
nues for the support of the govern
ment by placing duties on those articles
which we can or do produce in this
country, so as to protect our industries
and encourage home production. Mr..
Watterson's Demo-Populist policy pro-
poses to put the duties on articles which
we cannot produce in this country,
which encourages their production n
foreign countries, thus benefttlng for
eign industries instead of American; and
still he has the brazen efrontery to call
his ''rhe true American system, and in
forms us that the Democratic party will
not weary in well-doing until the statute
books are no longer disfigured by the
shadow of any tariff duty having pro-
lection for its purpose! If Mr.. Waiter
son ever lives long enough to see that
policy carried out, he will find the re-
publican government buried under the
ruins of his own party and a limited
monarchy established in It's place.

Grief of a IInrNe.

A horse not only sheds tears under
the emotion Of grief. but in moments of
sudden or intolerable anguish utterS a
most melancholy cry In one Of Cooper's
Indian novels dramatic use is made OF
the scream of wounded horse, and
Lord Erskine, in speech made in the
house of lords upon the bill for enforc-
ing humanity toward animals, noticed
this remarkable fact An eyewitness
relates the following: 'On the advance
TO the heights of Alma a battery Of ar
tillery became exposed 70 the fire Of a
concealed Russian battery, and in the
course of a few minutes IL was nearly
DESTROYED, men and horses killed and
wounded, guns dismouuted, and hmbers

as far as possible toward him, with its

A SAMPLE POP LIE.

A Populist senator asserted the other
day on the floor of the senate that the
sledge hammer used by Speaker Doug

sample Of Populist lie. The facts are

tons, until he received a severe blow on
the arm from a missile thrown at him

Literary Note For October.

Marion Crawford opens up new
line of thought in his article entitled
Rome, the Capitol of New Republic
appearing in the October Cosmopolitan.
1t is not likely that the October mum.
Der will have the success which
attended that for September. The
extraordinary spectacle was presented
of n 12@.cent magazine selling for 80
and 70 cents, and many hundreds were
even sold at Sl.00 each. Probably the
record remains without parallel, in
periodical sales, of number proving
so interesting that, after 2ll 900 copies
had been sold, the News Company had
orders for $4,000 more than they could
supply, while dealers in various parts
of the country, discovering the esteem
in which the magazine was held, inn
mediately raised their prices to double,
treble, quadruple and in many cases to
eight times the regular price. The
publishers do not yet know what their
real circulation is, owing to the limited
capacity of their presses; but machin-
cry is being put in place which will
supply an edition for December ex.
ceeding 800 900, and during that month
it will be possible to determine just how
many Cosmopolitans the public will
buy.
