will visit this city to receive the silver
bell and silver service which are to be
donated by his community. The navy
department will no doubt send other
ships besides the New Orleans TO par

is also understood that the German
schoolship Moltke will be here, and
40 doubt the French government will
likewise send one of it's vessels now
in West Indian waters. There is an
Italian cruiser present in the West
Indies, as well as a pumhes,otB British
