FROM the fact that the Illinois Steel
company offers to furnish the govern
meut with armOr plates at $40 per ton
for which it has been paying Carnegie
$500, explains why the willy Andrew
could afford to keep on improving his
social standing in England even in the
face of the hard times. A profit Of $3.50
above legitimate profit is a very easy
thing.

ACCORDING to the estimates Of Ed
ward Atkinson, the eminent American
statistician, the people as a whole are
within about one year of starvation,
within two or three years of becoming
naked, aud within a very few years Of
becoming hOuseless. In this country
nearly two million human beings are
added every year to our population.
That number would soon crowd exist
ing dwellings to oyerhowing, unless in
each year about a half,miIlion men
we're occupied in adding to the number
Of dwellings already existing.

It was a Yankee sailorman
Went down 70 cehan lands,
To see the hanghty Spanish dons
DisDerse the rebel bands;
and scatter corses right and left
Upon the bloody sands.
aOur army is the hest on earth,"
The Spanish captain said.
Our bright machetes thirst for blood
We load with Spanish lead;
We drive the Cubans round the bend
And knock 'em IN the head"
4 caTaelade came marching by,
And skirmished DER the plain.
They're not welI-drilled, /" the Yankee said
The captain seemed in pain,
20, forgot to say" said he,
I'VE left OuF drills in Spain"
Still on they rido &c meet the foe,
Resolved to do OF die,
When suddenly the Cubans come
And Gomez" is their cry
the Spanish soldiers face about
And to the timber az.
Take note, dear sir," the captain said,
Their riding can't be beat;
Just see how very gailantIy
The major keeps his seat"
But. thunderW said the sailoTman,
They're riding in retreat"
But rushing from the battlefield
They passed village near,
And slew some weak pacihcos
With loud and savage cheer
And took some women prisoners
With low and brutal leeF.
''Now mark you well the way we fight
Upon the Spanish main.
Now mark you well, the captain said,
"And note the rebels slain;
What think you of our gallant men,
The cavaliers of spaini"
"IfI had men, the Yankee said,
"If had men, said he,
"IfI had ten from Illinois
And ten from Tennessee,
I'd charge your blasted cavaliers
And drive EN- in the sea-"
And that is why a Yankee man
Is in Spanish gaol,
With handouts on his arms and legs
And bOlted to a rail.
Our consul sent a letter up
For Grove to look up bail.
