The Plans tor The New Battieshirs.

Washington City, Dec. 4-The work OF
passing upon the various plans for battle
ships submitted to the navy department in
answer 10 the advertisement for proposals
is now engaging the entire attention of the
naval bureau chiefs. and. owing to the
number and compleXity of the plans. the
task is not a light one. The chief of ord
nance. Capt. Sampson. has been added 10
the usual board, in view of the Importance
of the aTmor question, raised by the prop
osition of the Cramps TO supply the ships
fully equipped with armor instead of fol-
lowing the usual practice of having the
government furnish the armor. The plans
in instances embody certain novelties in
naval construction that must be passed
upon with care. The Cramps have one
plan for ship about the size of the In
diana, but without turrets. In their place,
for and aft. are mounted twelve-inch guns
on carriages that disappear in the huh
below the water line and under the pro-
tective deck after being discharged. thus
being completely shielded from a return
fire, and also adding 10 the stability of the
ship. Another plan, also submitted by the
Cramps is for a battleship Of the same
size. with four separate turrets, two for
the thirteeen-iDch guns and two for the
eight-inch guns. the latter being placed
above and closely in the rear of the big
turrets, thus generally resembling the ar
rangement prepared generally by the con-
struction bureau. The Union Iron Works
carry the navy departments plan 10 an
extreme ia one point. where they contem-
plate a three-steried turret. Their orig
inal plan is generally similar TO the de-
partment's design, except in a slight de-
tail relating TO the placing of main
passageway, and the storage of coal above
the boilers, and the important detail OF
supplying all of the steam by the new
tubular boilers, such as are used on the
Monterey.
The unfortunate battleship Texas has
had another breakdown. She went out on
a full-power steam trial trip from New
York this morning with the intention OF
making sure that her machinery would
work all right. but was soon brought up
at the powder station at TompklhsNliie'
staten island. with her steering gear Grip
MED IT is estimated that about five days
will.be consumed in making the necessary
repairs to fit the ship for another trial

A Peace Proposition.

With view to settle the differences now
existing in this County as to the number
of delegates each faction is to have in the
Constitutional Convention, and, If possi-
bic, to avoid fight in this County, the
following resolution was adopted by the
Conservative meeting held here last Mon
day, and a committee appointed who pre-
sented the same 10 Mr.. w. T. McGill,
Chairman of the Irby Executive Commit
tee for this County. with the request that
he call his committee together and act on
said resolution at once.
The following is the resolution:
ResolveG, That committee of three,
consisting Of j. D. Maxwell, j. W. Quat-
tlebaum an d @. @. Laugston, be appoint
ed from the members of this convention to
present the request of this convention to
the Democratic Executive Committee
of this County, acting under what is COM
monty known as the "Irby Committee" T"
that the said committee reconsider Its re-
cent action in voting down resolution
looking to the equal division of delegates
to the Constitutional Convention between
the Reformers and Conservatives, and that
said Committee be requested by this Con
vention to recommend to the voters Of the
County that they elect delegates to the
Convention on basis of giving equal
representation to each of the factions in
the party, and issue an address to the vo-
ters calling upon them to adopt this recon-.
mendation, and carry the same out In gooa
faith by voting for three Ref3rmers aud
three Conservatives, whose names ara to
be proposed by the fao;ioh to which they
respectively belong, for members of said
Convention.
This resolution was presented to Chair
man McGill this morning, but up to the
hour of going to press he had issued no
call for meeting of his Committee.

"THE ANDERSON INTELLIaENCER leads
the way for others to follow, That Office
was the first country Office In the State to
use steam power on the printing press. It
has now laid away Its steam engine and
hsrnessed electricity. Tho electricity is
generated some six miles In the country.
The INTELL1aENcER Is one Of the very
best papers received at this Office, and its
circulation is perhaps greater than that of
any other country paper in the State. The
only objection that we can urge to that
paper is the bachelor editors big mustache
and his failure to marry. Any. man who
edits as good q paper as the ANDERSON
INTELLIaENoER ought to be dealt with for
contempt of Court (Cupid's Court If he
doesn't get married before next Christ

The INTELLIaENcER certainly appreci-
and Banner, for editor Wilson Ia recog-
nized as an expert judge of newspapers,
even If be does get little off on politics
occasionally. Weare also very grateful that
he can urge only two objections to our
paper, viz: ''the bachelor editors big mus.
tache aud his failure to marry" These
objections are very himsy, and we do not
think they come with good g1ace from the
editor Of the Press and Banner, a man
who does not practice what he breaches.
It is we'll known fact that he has been
wearing big mustache for forty years,
more or less, and If he has ever married no
notice Of it has ever been published. Now
If the editor Of the Press and Banner will
shave off bis big mustache and get married,
this bachelor editor will do his best to
follow suit.
