attention, Sugar being somewhat strong
at times, and scoring a gain for the
morning hours, and Tobacco being weak.

There was no items of news of any

NAMES FOR NAVAL VESSELS.
Uncle SANS Ships Decorated Chiefly
With Geographical Terms.

From the New York Tribune.
The nomenclature of the vessels of the
United States navy Is deficient in names
made famous by acts of naval heroism. but
abounds in geographical terms, which
make a list of Uncle Sans ships resemble
an extract from a postal guide. There is
a class of vessels in the English navy
kEown as the admiral class. where the
rames of Nelson, Arson. Rodney. Ben
bow and other naval leaders may be found,
and this same method of perpetuating the
names of admirals exists in Russia. The
custom of preserving the names of vic
tories at sea is also observed in many
countries by naming vessels after the place
rear which the fight occurred. But in the
United States navy these customs cannot
be carried out, and. although the name of
FarraSut is honored and revered by the
navy. no large ship of any class bears the
name OF the hero of Mobile bay.
In the torpedo-bCat class there are ex-
ceptiOus to this rule. and the fleet contains
Ericsson. a Cushing, a Porter. Foote,
q DahlgIen, a Dupont. Goidsborough and
Others.
The single-turreted monitors bear Indian
Jamcs. such as Comanche, Catskiil. Canon
icus, Mahopac. MOntauk, Wyandotte, but
not 10 the exclusion OF other names, for
the list includes the names of Ajax and

names of Franklin. Adams and Marion are
still preserved, along with Yantic. Alert

resented in this class by several vessels
among which are the Mohican, the Mono

Webster and others who made history.

skin and beetling brows having earned for
him the cognomen of Black DAN. In man

brass buttons. He was a noticeable figure
