The British ship Machrihanish, Captain
Sanders which arrived in San Francisco
144 days from Swansea Wednesday, had
a strong and decided taste of the gentle
breezes that hum merrily around Cape
Horn. The thu ee boats which the heavy
seas left on board are melancholy wrecks
and the smashed and splntered wood.
work around the deck is a speaking re-
minder of what the good ship passed
through. The Can has the following in.
terview.
II have gone around the Horn several
times" said Second officer Hewett, "but
never did have such an experience. Fol
six weeks we were battered by the tenn
pestuous wind and water. Rails, ladders
compass and boats were all ruined. LooI

"On June IL the ship ran into West.
ern hurricane which kicked UP a sea as
high as the lower mastheads. The decks
were flooded to the sails and it was in-
possible to get forward or aft. If man
ventured out of the foreGastle he was
washed around like a cork. On the night
of June IS we caught Ut. While hove-to
under fore aid aft lower top sails we
were struck on the weather beam by q
terrible sea, which struck us little
abaft of the main rigging. 1t took the
starboard bouts overheard, smashed the
port boats, the bridge, tore the rails and
iron stanchions out of their fastenings,
and wrecked the McGregor compass.
Everything around was washed from
it's place. An oil tank was broken in
and thirty gallons of oil were mixed with
the water. The gale kept up and the
ship was constantly buried under the
frothy seas
"This went on for weeks, almost with
out cessation. We used oil bags, which
did much to deaden the blows of these
waves Part of the time the ship was
over on her beam ends, with the seas
going over her constantly. The gale
would moderate a little, to start up
again with increased fury. We encounter
ed blizzards, hail and snow storms. The
ice coated the deck inches deep, and the
running gear and Blocks were frozen
up tight.
Before rope would run through a
sheaf the Ice would have to be beaten
Off with Delaying pin. For many days
we were hove to and all hands were in
the afterhouse trying Ito keep from freez-
ing to death. 1t was impossible to dc
anything on deck, and it was no use to
keep the men there.
ION July we were visited by another
hurricane which finished the forward part
of the vessel as the former had done the
aft. The boats there were wrecked, the
forecastle and galley skylights were stove
in and the apartments flooded. Every
thing was in deplorable condition, afolt
sails split and running gear parted"
But the staunch vessel with the hare
Scotch name weathered the awful gales
that hurled her down in the toppllne
seas, and she came into port somewhat
damaged but in good condition. The Of
ficers state that the storms were un-
usually severe off the Horn this year,
and June, which is the calm month, was
thirty days Of ripping, roaring gales.

rivalry with San Francisco In Central
American markets is therefore an early
probability. There are, of course, many
advantages possessed by this city In the
promised contest. She has the geograph-
ical position, and she has possession, a
formidable combination. But unless q
sharp lookout Is kept, and the railroads
which import, and the transportation
lines which export, the articles of COM
merce employed in the Central American
trade, may be induced to contribute their
Just proportion to the strip there is dan
ger that the field may be taken from
San Francisco as others have been in the
same manner. A liberal transportation
policy would seem to suggest itself as
prime element in the cogent argument OF
se,f-preservation but the loss of much OF
the carrying trade between this country
and the Orient demonstrates that trans
portation lines are not always amenable
to this influence. The rivalry referred to
in this article may not reach formida-
BILE proportion, but it will not do to ig-
more it, and If San Francisco merchants
are wise they will not rely too much upon
the prestige already established, but
would fortify it at every point with the
argument of financial advantage, which
Is simply invincible. In order to do this

NO JUSTICE EVEN FROM "THE
NATION"

we knew there were very few people
in the North that were fan. minded upon
any question connected with our great
civil war, but we had thought the New
York Nation was broad and liberal enough
to treat any question, even one pertaining
to the war, justly and fairly. 1t seems,
however. we were mistaken.
The Nation made some comments upon
General Fitz. Lees life of General Rob
ert T.. Lee, in which the accuracy OF
his figures concerning General Lees
numbers at Sharpsburg and Gettysburg
was called in question. Gen. Fitz. Lee re-
piled TO ITS criticism. but it published
only part of his reply, emitting the fig.
ures and proofs that accompanied the
reply but in the same issue 1t published
long response to General Fitz Lees
reply.
1t is generally known that Colonel
Walter Taylor also replied through one
of the Norfolk papers to the Nations
criticisms. completely demonstrating the
truth of Gen. Fitz. Lees statements that
were called in question. Before General
Fitz. Lee knew of this letter OF Colonel
Taylors, however, he prepared and sent
to the Nation a response to their cor
respondent. This it refuses to publish,
and we print IT this morning in another
column. The editor says TO General Lee
In returning his manuscript: MY reason
for returning this rejoinder is primarily
my conviction that IT would not enlighten
the discussion, and this would be my only
excuse for printing it, That is, docu
ment which went to prove that General
Il. Z. Lee had less than 1900 men at
Sharpsburg to oppose McClellan's $500.
and only 62,OOO at Gettysburg to oppose
Meade's 10000. would mot enlighten the
discussion OF course 1t would not en-
tighten the discussion 10 a northern man

wuy EHMAN MOTIFS PAfD IN GOLD.

The Times has received the following
letter from one of the most distinguish
ed citizens Of Franklin county, Virginia:
Hunters Hall Post-ofiice.
To the Editor OF the Richmond Times:
Dear Sir,-In reply to a correspondent,
YOU state in a recent issue of your paper
THE silver dollar is now a full legal ten
der for debt 10 any amount all over the
United States" If so, why should the
Government give the holders of coin GER
tficates and United States bonds the
right or privilege of demanding payment
of their certificates and OF the interest
and principal Of their bonds in gold?
! can't say that have any well settled
opinions upon the difficult subject of fl
nance. and with respect TO 1t may share
that ignorance which you seem to think
so generally prevails. An answer 10 my
question may give me some light.
When our correspondent speaks Of "coin
certificates" we suppose he means, of
course. the Sherman notes, as these are
the only coin certificates that the Gov
eminent gives gold for, except the gold
certificates, which are issued upon the de-
post of gold. Greenbacks are OF course
not included here. The Sherman notes
were issued by the Government TO pay Tor
the 100000 ounces of silver which the
Sherman law of July II. 1890, ordered to
be purchased at the market price of sill
YER. This act provides as follows:
THAT upon the demand of the holder of
any of the Treasury notes herein pro-
vided for. the Secretary of the Treasury
shall. under such regulations as he may
prescribe, redeem such notes in gold or
silver coin, at his discretion, it being the
established policy of the United States to
maintain the two metals on a parity
with each other, upon the present legal
ratio or such ratio as may be provided
by law"
When the Administration came to con-
strue this language, it held that If any
holder of a coin note demanded payment
of il in gold, and such demand was re-
fused and only silver offered, the refusal
would of itself put gold to premium
and thus destroy the parity of the two
kinds of dollars, hich Congress had de-
termined should be kept at parity. The
only alternative was for the Government
TO treat the silver and the gold dollars on
terms of absolute equality. and as mat
tiers of Indifference to itself, and to per-
init the note holder to take either ne
pleased. 1t is thus plain that any other
course would have put gold TO a premi-
UNI. AS for the bonds. we must pay the
interest on those held abroad in what
Is ITS equivalent there, or be set down
as a repudiating nation. AS to those
held in this country, we do not under
stand that the Government holds Itself
bound to pay any of them in goId' unless
the bond calls for it.

OF Jesus: and how much easier was It to
increase the nourishing power OF mere
loayes and fishes!
Indeed. all the miracles. as we call
them. of Jesus Christ were mere incidents
N the great office He filled. as the Bishop
and Shepherd Of our souls. His Office as
teacher and exemplar was as far above
that. as a mere worker of wonders. as
soul is above body. as the spirit Is above
the flesh.
Miracles have ceased, and we must
needs admit the means how things are
perfected. The standing miracle Is the
worlds most brilliant jewel. the charac-
ter. the walk and conversation OF Jesus
Christ, the Sun of righteousness, under
whose healing and enlivening influence
our whole race, like the face OF the earth
in spring, is fulfilling prophecy: HE shai'
glow as the lily. aud cast forth his foo'S
as Lebanon. His branches shall spread
and His beauty shall be as the olive tree'
and His smell as Lebanon. They thal
dwell under His shadow shall return; they
shall revive as the corn and grow as the
vine" The world Acknowledges the
proclamation. Arise, shine, for thy light
is come!
