Last Nights storm ON the Potomac

The heavy wind that prevailed in this city
for time last night played particular havoc in
the lower Potomac. The captain OF the Nor
folk steamer that came up this morning re-
ported one of the hardest storms he had ever
known in the Chesapeake bay. The wind blew
with unusual violence for this season Of the
year, and the steamers from down the river
were several hours late in making their wharves
this morning. So far as reported mp to a late
hour this afternoon, however, there had been
no serious mishaps among the river craft.

Ihave thought of getting married
When I've seer thee, Mary Jane.
With thy dainty silks and satins,
With thy pettico:.I and train.
But a whisper came across me.
Like q sign with omen rife
"Ah. it's very well to marry,
But, oh! canst thou keep a wifey~
III the last new bonnet suits thee,
Canst thou wear il still the same,
Though q newer pattern tempt thee,
Lately handed down TO fame2
VIII a dress or two content thee
When stern fashion orders more
And a solitary headdress do
Instea. of half q scorer
But they tell me l am raving
To expect so strange athing.
And the. laugh to orf my musings
And the hopes TO which | cling.
So l fear l must resign thee
And a bachelor remain,
Yet | never can forget thee.

An Invention For Steamships.

An English mechanical genius has de-
vised a method Of indicating and stop
ping a leak by the use of compressed air.
He divides a ship into alright compart-
ments, fitted with doors provided with
packing material and connected by tubes
with a room on deck called the ''switch
room" In this room is a junction chest
supplied with compressed air from fixed
OF portable co1npressOrs and so arranged
that the air can be delivered to any of
the compartments. Other tubes lead
from the compartment from which wa
ter san be forced out when required, and
electric indicators are also connected
with the switch room to indicate the &C
emulation Of water in any of the COM
partments. Should the vessel "spring a
leak the Indicator will show which COM
partment is affected, so that the COM
pressed air ma be forced in t drive the
water Out.-BOStOn Journal.

Our Public Schools

Are the main-stay of our republic. In
them are being cultivated the minds
which are to be our future lawmakers and
leaders in every walk in life. How e.
sential it is that these minds should be
united to strong, healthy bodies. So
many children suffer from impurities
and p~oisons in the blood that it is a
wonder that they ever grow up to be
men and ONE Many parents cannot
find words strong enough to express
their gratitude to Hoods ~Sarsaparilla for
its good effect upon their children,
Scrofula, salt rheum and other diseases
Of the blood are ~etfectually and perma.
nently cured by this excellent medicine
and the whole being is given strength TO
resist attacks Of disease.

Mistakes of Missionaries.

Come behind the curtain with me while
/ whisper into your ear a few of the mis-
takes made by missionaries, who talk so
much about the mistakes Of the heather.
One evening an English missionary in
Seking took a friend who was visiting
him TO a regular Chinese theater. 1t
happened that the play for that evening
vas a hurlesque on foreign preaching.
a Chinaman dressed up to represent a
foreigner came upon the stage with his
arms full Of books, attended BY his Chi
nese servant. He began to preach a mock
sermon, making the mistakes in talking
which a foreigner is likely TO make.
These mistakes were received with bursts
Of laughter from the audience, to whom
the books were distributed. The fun
came to a climax when the preacher,
after delivering a sentence particularly
full Of laughable mistakes, turned to his
servant and said: How did l speak?
Did | do pretty wellE' and the servant
replied with great gravity: The foreign
teacher speaks the Chinese language ex-
ceedingly well. No mistakes at all were
made."-New York Independent.
