Cruiser Oregon.

1t is said by an officer of the Phila-
deIphia that the Oregon may arrive
here shortly to relieve that vessel. The
Oregon is, to all intents and purposes,
a sister ship of the famous warship
Terrible. though it requires $50 men
to run the Terrible and only 400 on the
Oregon. This is due to improvements
since the Terrible was built. The lat
ter vessel was too large to go on the
ways at Mare Island, and had to be
sent to Port Orchard, on Puget Sound.
The total projectile of the Oregon is
three tons heavier than the Terrible.
