Alabama and Kearsarge.

The mention o. these two names
suggests one of the most picturesque
and important naval battles of the
Civh war Everybody who has taken
the least interest in naval history has
read with thrilling interest the ac-
count of the duel off Cherbourg which
sent to the bottom the famous Confed-
crate privateer and terror of the seas,
the Alabama A wave of exultation
and triumph spread through the North
when the result o fthe duel was known
and we all felt that we had almost lost
a personal friend when the Kearsarge
few years ago, after such a glorious
career, came to an ignominious end by
running on a reef Now there is a
new Alabama and a new Kearsarge,
botn of which will make their prelim-
mary sea trials within a few days
One of them is built in the North, at
Philadelphia, and the other
in the South, at Newport News,
but there is no probability that they
will never clash in a fatal duel as did
their namesakes.
1t seems peculiarly appropriate that
these two names, so inseparably linked
wrth the history of our navy, should
be revived simul- -aneously, and that
the North should contribute one ship
and the South the other, to sail the seas
hereafter with no other rivalry than to
be involved in rendering the best SER
vice to the common flag of both.
There is an inconceivable difference be-
tween these two modern figh,n ng ma
chimes and cir namesakes of the
sixties, with the latter two's walls Of
oak and archaic equipment of guns
and machinery. The former represents
G-e best specimens of a revolu. .lon
which had already begun at the time
of the fight off Cherbourg They stand
for ,le most inconceivable power and
force which man has trained to do his
bidding at the end of the century; but
in spite of all this it is questionable
whether these modern levlathans will
ever have an opportunity to rlval the
fame which was obtained by their
predecessors.-Pittsburg Times.
