A Years Shipbuilding.

1t has been dull year for New England
shipyards, but in some other sections of
the country the new report of the Bureau
OF Navigation shows that the industry has
had reasonably successful season. in
spite OF the severe depression which fell
upon 1t with the first incoming of the
Cleveland Administration.
Taking the country by and large, the
total productions of American shipyards
for the year ending June 80 1895, was 100
vessels, With an aggregate tonnage of 2O4, =
DOC, against GS2 vessels of 1873, 900 tons
constructed in the year preceding. This
handsome increase is due chiefly to ac-
tive building on the Great Lakes for the
wheat, coal and ore trade, which of late
years has assumed immense proportions.
As most of this carrying is between one
American port and another, it is a pro-
tected industry, foreigners being absolute
ly debarred by our laws from participation
in it. American skill and ingenuity have,
therefore, had fair field on the lakes, and
the result has been the creation of vast
modern freighting fleet on those unsalted
seas, which probably has no equal in the
world in the speed, cheapness and all
around efficiency Of its service.
1t is striking indication of the rapid
abandonment of wood as shipbuilding
material that more than one half-to be
exact, JOG, 900 tons-of the 204, 600 tons of
shipping built in the United States last
year was of steel construction. Not only
steamers, but tugs and barges are now
very largely built of steel, and the next
natural step will be its application in the
heavy sailing freighters in our coastwise
trade. Some of the later four masted
schooners are of upward Of 1900 net ton
mage and about 250 feet long The ligid-
ity of frame which the use of steel gives
is valuable quality in vessels of these
great dimensions. Boston journal.

Cost of Firing Big Guns.

England is the only country in Europe
that can afford the practice that is nee
essary to a perfectly disciplined naval
force.
The mere cost of firing guns into the
air in practicing is so great that second
class nations cannot think Of such ex-
periments, except to limited extent.
Every round fired for practice or salute
from an English six-inch gun costs $50,
from an eight-inch gun $3.50, from a r.
inch gun $615, and from the Is. 25-inch or
11O-ton gun $500.
And these figures are only small part
of the story, for the life of very heavy
gun is not long one; and though a six
inch gun can fire as many as 500 rounds,
70 or so full rounds are the limit of the
110-ton. After firing that amount they
will both require new inner tube, very
costly itself.
If this is the cost of firing off big guns
for mere practice, what must be the cost
when they are primed for business?
In single afternoon the British navy
could fire off the revenues of small
kingdom. Boston Globe.

Royalty Wed.
Princess Maud and the Prince Of Denmark
Married.

LONDON, July y. Princess Maud of
Wales, youngest daughter of the Prince
OF Wales and grand daughter Of Queen
Victoria, was married to-day to Prince
Charles of Denmark, son of the crown
prince and grandson of King Christian of
Denmark. The ceremony took place in
the Chapel Royal, Buckingham Palace.
The West End was profusely decorated
with flags, flowers, etc., and there was a
conspicuous blending of the British and
Danish flags. The Life guards and the
Cold Stream guards lined the route from
Marlborough House to Buckingham Pal
ace and crowds of people, mostly ladies,
were gathered in the vicinity Of the pal
ace, awaiting the arrival of the procession.
A cavalcade of heralds and equerries
escorted the bridegroom, who was accom-
panied by his parents, the Crown Prince
OF Denmark and Princess Louise and his
brothers, Christian and Harold, the
Prince and Princess Of Wales and all of
the Queens children with their families
i'll carriages except Princess Beatrice of
Battenberg and her children, who were
absent on account of their mourning for
the death of Prince Henry of Battenberg.
The Queen passed quietly into the
chapel from Buckingham Palace The
ceremony took place at 1890. The
weather was sunny and in every way
pleasant. Princes Christian and Harold
supported Prince Charles, and the brides
maids were Princess Victoria of Wales,
sister of the BRIDE and Princesses Ingeborg
and Thyra of Denmark, sisters of the
bridegroom. Princess Victoria of Schles-
wig Holstein. Princesses Patricia and
Margaret of Connaught, Princess Alice of
Albany and Lady Alexandra Duff, daugh-
ter of the Duke of Fife, and Princess
Louise of Wales.
Archbishop of Canterbury and primate of
all England, otficiated, assisted by the
bishops of London and Winchester. The
Prince of Wales gave the bride away.
After the ceremony the bridal party
and guests partook of luncheon in Buck
ingham palace, at the conclusion of which
the royal party headed by the bride and
bridegroom left the place in carriages for
Marlborough House. The party left the
palace at 2.45 and took the route via
Piccadilly and ST. James street, both of
which were beautifully decorated.
All of the houses were draped with
flags, bunting, etc., and there was pro-
fusion OF flowers. The streets were lined
with sight-seers and the windows of the
clubs and other buildings along the route
We're filled with people, mostly ladies.
The bridal couple afterwards left Marl-
borough House for st. Pancras station,
where they took a special train for VOL
ferton, Norfolk, to take possession of APP
p}eton hall, which will henceforth be
their home.

boyhood are her graphic descriptions of
it. The fleet consisted of eighteen YES
sells, ten OF which were transports. A
force of three thousand, five hundred vet
eran soldiers was landed, and the little
American garrison attempted no defense.
The British were left in undisturbed pos
session until the close of the war. Should
we within few years have another war
with England, the British flag would prob
ably soon after its commencement float
again above Castine. The whole eastern
coast of Maine is shamefully unfortifed.

1 do not yearn for some strange sweet Mir
vana,
Some silent sleeping land,
Where we may never hear familiar voices
Nor clasp familiar hand.
do not sigh for dreamless rest unbroken,
For silence deep and long,
For slumber where no word is ever spoken
And never sob or song.
l would not, were to me the choice given,
Lie down to endless sleep,
Nor would I soar on "viewless wings" te
heaven
Eternal watch to keep;
Where never any pains or losses
Confront the ransomed soul,
Where no distress, no burdens and no crosses
Urge toward a shining goal.
do not crave some endless blooming sum
mer,
Where leaves shall never fade,
And where unceasing fountains murmur
In grove and everglade;
changing,
Or heed the passing hour,
Or watch the golden bee in happy ranging
Among the trees and flowers.
But rather grant me, 0 thou Allwise spirit
Some life where l may live,
Some true existence where my soul may
merit
That which thou hast to give;
Where 1 can hear when April birds are sing
ing
Their notes of sweetest song,
And feel the thrill of life when woods are
ringing
With anthems pure and strong;
Where 1 may hear the pulsing joyous MUIR
OF buoyant happy June.
And revel in the lavish bloom of summer
Rich with it's priceless boon.
ask no home where never autumn's glory
Comes with it's harvest train,
Where never winter with its mantle hoary
Shrouds mountain, hill and plain.
Some place I ask where We may still be
loving
And strong through discipline,
Still looking upward, still forever striving
Some nobler height to win.

Two Naughty Navigators.

billowing sea meath sky of blue,
And-Just about midway on it
Two little heads bobbing up and down,
Each in a big sun bonnet
Two little cruisers that slipped away
To voyage on an unknown ocean;
Two forlorn mothers who're left at home
In agonies of emotion,
Two little mariners blowing thro
Great waves that threaten submersio1
Two throbbing hearts that strive to steel
Themselves 'gainst mad Fears incursion
Two little crafts on surging sea,
Now lacking, now wildly lurching;
Two navigators, for compass or chart
Or pilot, vainly searching.
Two tender mothers in floods of tears;
Two little runaway lasses
Who're happily found before they are
drowned
In that billowing sea of grasses

RetrospectiOn.

In the calm OF the summer evening,
All nature seems hushed in sleep;
And the pale stars softly cleaning,
Der the earth their vigil keep.
No sound breaks the brooding silence,
Save a whippoorwill's plaintive cry;
The rivers musical murmur,
And the night winds tremulous sigh.
let sit in soft, sweet darkness
With feeling akin to pain:
For my thoughts have drfted backward,
To my childhood days again.
How the glad past comes before me,
At the touch of memory's fire.
Till the chords of my heart awaken,
And. thrill like a wind-swept lyre.
l hear again the murmur
OF the brook Ger its pebbly bed
And the wild bees drowsy humming.
Der the flowers in the tall grass hid.
AND L see the sweet, white roses,
That grew by the garden wall:
The purple bloom of the liacs-
And the sunlight over all.
Oh, the dear, lost friends of my girlhood
How their voices, silvery clear,
Seem to float through the mystical silence
And fall Oh my listening ear.
How their faces true and tender,
Beam sweet with a radiant light:
How their hands so warm and loving,
Seem to clasp my own Tonight.
And dear form stands beside me-
With gentle face 50 fair:
can feel her kiss On my forehead,
The touch of her hand on my hair.
With sigh I awake from my dreaming,
And the visions from NE glide.
And l sit alone in the darkness
And hush of the eventide
For the dear ones that seemed near me,
Are gone from my earthly sight;
And are lying at rest in the churchyard,
Meath the fragrant blossoms white.
But the ocean of Peace enfolds me,
And | rest on its quiet tide;
For l know that my hearts lost treasures,
shall find on the other side.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed in the Spring, when the languid ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the liver is
torpid and sluggish and the need of tonic
and Alternative is felt. A prompt use of this
medicine has often averted long and perhaps
fatal bilious fevers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and freeing
the system from the malarial poison. Head
