According to Admiral Porter they
saved the city Of Charleston from cap
turc by water.
VI Mobile, after the feet had pass
rd Fort Morgan, the monitor Tecum-
sell was sunk by a torpedo in the har-
Dor. This was check and the feet
proceeded very cautiously. Subsc-
lncntly two ronclads were pushed
forward to lombard Fort Spanish,
both struck torpclocs and went to the
bottom on Appalachce bar. All op-
eratlons of the feet were Immediately
suspended. The number Of ships
destroyed were ffty.eight by torpe-
does. as reported by our officers. This
includes several ironclads. All on
the Federal side.
We had one ironclad, the Albe.
marie, sunk by torpedo, on Roanoke
River, by Lieut.. Gushing, Of the Uni.
ted States navy. An equally daring
attempt was made by Commander w
L. Glasscl, of the Confederate navy
OF Charleston. to destroy the Iron
aides, the largest Of all tho Fedora
obiPe. ond, although she was not sunk,
she was rendered useless for some
I time.
A torpedo boat in Charleston har
Dor, that would 60 under the water
from which much was expected, was
doomed to disappointment. She sunl
in she channel, drowning she entire
crew. We used several kinds of tor
pedoes. Some were Of metal, but tht
most common was o common beer bar
rel, with tapering floats at each end
This was covered with mixture o
rosin, dissolved in coal tar, to make j
perfectly water tight. AT first tn
fuse was defective, but Gen. Rains
invented fuse that answered tn,
purpose exactly. These torpedoe
were anchored in the channel, abou
four feet below the surface of tn
water.
We also had offensive torpedoes. o
torpedoes for attack. These consist
ed of two torpedoes joined with
rope or chain, and allowed to foa
down with the tide. This kind was
however, objected to by Gen. Gil
mer, OF the engineer corps, on tn
ground that they might come bacl
and destroy our own boats.
! We had land torpedoes, too, the
would explode II trod upon. Thes
were only cannon shells buried littl
below the surface of,the ground, wit
o sensitive fuse in the top. The
were placed In frent Of works to ai
in repelling an assault and upo

Enormous Growth Of the Prudential.

Nothing is better calculated to give one
an idea Of the stupendous growth of life
insurance in the United States than the
record Of The Prudential Insurance Com
pany of America, whose annual statement
is published in this paper.
We find that this Company has been
transacting business only twenty-eight
years, and had, in 1876, assets amounting
to 50, 232. To-day its assets amount TO
over $72, ,0oO, 600; the amount it has paid
to policyholders during the twenty-eight
years exceeds $79 600, 900; vMle the num-
Der Of families enjoying its protection is
estimated at more than one million.
These results indicate the extraordinary
popularity Of The Prudential, popularity
which owes its origin to the fact that The
Prudential was the first company to meet
the wants OF the industrial classes in re-
gard to life insurance, and also was the
first to establish system Of quick settle-
menb Of claims.
Inc Frudential management anu diso
the Prudential policy are to be CON
graduated upon the success which every
year brings to their gigantic enterprise, a
su cess which is as gratifying to the public
at large as it is to the pioneers Of such a
useful institution. Write to the Home
Office of the Company, Newark, N. J., for
Information concerning its policies, which
guarantee protection to the family as we'll
as dividends to the policy-holders

Monroe this Spring, the Republicans being
either unable or unwilling to oppose VIM.

against him but declined. and no good Re-
publican wanted to fill the vacancy, so MIR.
Tombleson, the Democratic nominee was
unanimously elected in township that is
formally Republican by at least 100 ma
jority. The Republican ticket also con-
tained the name of D. S. Champion, Demo-
arat, for Township committee. The ticket
was endorsed by the Democrats and elected

son.

There is no question about the inter-
est. The majority come to hear, and
few will speak, Every man and woman
har an opinion on the topics, but the
difficulty is to get tEYai to express it,
Every question Fought up at these
meetings is timely and the publicity Of
these creates an interest Let the Execu-
tive Committee keep right on selecting
questions, and when they are not inter-
esting, it will be shown by the people
not attending.
