While Great Britain may claim the
chief distinctions Of The maritime
world the largest single fleet carries
the red. white and black, and its
house flag is the Hamburg American.
Its 6S distinct services carry the
worlds commerce into and ont of
nearly every important port Of all
continents. If the entire fleet were
assembled in one harbor, it would pre-
sent an imposing array Of 100 ocean
steamers, eight others under construc-
tion, and 215 river steamers and har-
Dor craft-a total Of SSS vessels. with
a gross tonnage Of nearly million.
If this fleet were welded into one
mammoth steamer, il would be nearly
five miles long, more than mile wide
and about mile deep. To load it
with bales of cotton would require the
average yield of 10000 acres: it
could take the wheat crop Of 900, 900
acres, and half a billion feet of lumber
would not fill it. This is the CONNER
cial hyphen that has connected Ham
burg sd America for 81 years.

it is pleasant to sag all manner Of good

but ten per cent. Amsterdam, Holland,
is the great market for diamonds
Nearly all the New York dealers who
import buy from that city Eighty per
cent. Of the diamond cutting for the
world is done in Amsterdam. Few
small diamonds are cut in New York
city. There are almost no facilities
here for doing the work The expe-

done on this side of the water even

SHALL WE BUILD ROADS1

roads. The eastern part Of the state i
commonwealth practically withou'
roads Il is true that the orgaRic law
provides that the section lines shall be
public roads; but in many places they are
impossible. and can be made so only by
the expenditure Of thousands Of dollars,
and in other places they are not opened
yet
In places engineering dificulties are
found with which the road superintendent
or overseer, is unable to contend success

Ger. with the power to appoint deputies in
townships where necessary The work Of
the oyerseers should be done under the
direction Of the engineer The money
necessary might be raised by a general
tax on the county property assessed
against the contiguous property as in
cities, or bonds be issued secured by tax
on the adjoining property The latter
would probably be the better plan, as the
bonds issued for long time. would sell
readily and the public could have the use
of the roads while paying for them. All
Of the smaller bridges should be stone or

dozen generations and cost little, if any
