cd or sold shortly after peace. The new group
of warships was built in accordance with the
recon mendations Of the Secretary of War,
April /, 1894 The first of the group to get into
the water was the IA gun frigate United States.
She was launched in Philadelphia on July 10,
1897. The second was the Sc gun frigate Con-
stelation, the United States being popularity
described at that time rs q new " constellation
among the Nations Of the earth. The ship
was launched at Baltimore on Sept. z, 1877.
About the same time were launched the
44-gun frigate President, Begun frigste
Chesapeake, and the 36-gun frigate Con-
gress The Constitution, named from that his
toric document (which, in spite of the kind
prophecies of our British cousins has survived
a century just as the ship so named has existed
nearly 8 century in spite of the protest of Eng
lish cannon-balls), was launched on Sept. 20
1877, at Boston.
When the Americans, acting on the recon-
mendation of the Secretary OF War OF April 1,
IVA proposed to build frigates combining great
speed with heavy ornaments, they encountered
much ridicule AT the hands of the French and
English, so that when this FIRST group of Ameri-
can warships appeared in the West Indies they
aroused good deal of interest and not little
covert merriment among the European naval
officers on that station. The English psrticU-
larry were emphatic in predicting the failure of
the "monstrous and prepOsterous ornaments
carried in these ships and many a mess-room
rang with laughter over the anticipated mis-
haps that would betall these presumptuous at
tempts at naval architecture by rebel SUBJ
iects" as the Americans were generally regard
ed by their friends, the English, at that time.

The United States Frigste ESSEX, which was
built in 1899, on the model OF the Constitution,

people as the Constitution, or Old lronsides, as
her stanch bulwaTks Of live oak came to be
called Even Nelson's portentous flagship VIC
tory which is inspected on bank holidays with
such awe and pride by the youth Of Great Brit

stitution was old enough to box the Fictory's

It must be admitted, however that the Brit
ishers bear off the palm in the matter of show
ing respect TO their venerable ship. She has
been properly taken care OF, and has been kept
within easy visiting distance of the metropolis,

OF building Nelson's and aspiring Coliingwoods.

Not the least Of the valuable features OF the
grand old irigate Is her intense Americanism.
In this day Of foreign invasions in the territory
OF American ideas, an article that is purely and
iBtrinsically American should be treasured up
as precious Jewel. There is nothing foreign
bred or foreign-built about the Constitution.
Eyegy idea about her was conceived by Amer
leans, her plans were drawn by Americans, she
was built with American wood and by Amer
lean mechanics and she has always been
manned by Americans.
Yet. come to think, there was one foreign
made article about this ship. When she was

In the Senate, the day was spent on the Post
Office appropriation bill, spirited contest being
made against the Senate amendment giving the
Postmaster General discretion in cxpending the
S. zoe. 600 for railway postal routes. There is
such freedom of debate in the Senate that Mr..
Allen (Neb.. p brsDched off into an elaborate
presentation of the alleged frauds in the last
Alabama election. Mr.. Pettigrew. of South
Dakota, presented resolution directing the
President to secure private counsel to prosecute
the rights of the Government against the Union
Pacific and Central Pacific Railroads The
Senate had not completed the Postotiice appro-
priation bill up to the time of adjournment.

In the Senate, much time was consumed in a
speech by Mr.. Stewart on the Presidents mes
sage and another by Mr.. Allen, continuing his
discussion on the alleged frauds in Alabama
The latter occasoned some debate, in which Mr.
Morgan took prominent part. In the morn
ing hour Mr.. Jones reported the bill adopted by
the Finance Committee providing for the free
coinage of silver, and Mr.. Gray reported the
adverse action of the Committee on Privileges
and Elections on the bill providing for the cleo
tion of Senators by direct vote Of the people.
When the debate was resumed on the Postoffice
bill the discussion dragged along, and no prog
ress was made at o'clock, when by special
agreement private pension bills were taken up
and the appropriation bill laid aside.

" All the popular pictures of this vessel she is

which make the bow considerably higher than
the stern. This is just the reverse Of the
lines In which vessels at the close of the 18th
century were built. At that time the stern was
built higher than the bow, with the idea that
the ship was to be driven through the waves
while the idea Of modern ship-builders is that
tile ship shall ride over the waves. As is is

FRIDAY. Fen. Is.

In the Senate, the Postoffice appropriation
bill was taken up and passed. The agricultural
appropriation bill was then taken up. The
proposed amendment to the meat-inspection
law occasioned some discussion. Mr.. Call, in
charge of the agricultural bill, said the present
inspection laws were being evaded. Unscrupu-
lous dealers were sending meat goods abroad
labeled as having passed Government inspec-
ton when no such inspection had occurred.
Mr.. Platt Conn, r. declared this was a
covert plan to make wholesale extension of
the meat-inspection system. 1t could not be
Justified as means OF conciliating Germany.
If Germany wants to retaliate," said he,
she should know it is game that two could
play at"
No final action was taken on the change in
meat inspection, and the bill was laid aside.
