Americans Hard to Kill.


The discovery on the shores of Lake
Erie of body in uniform. supposed to
have been a member of Commodore
Perry's crew, recalls that most pictur-
esque of naval battles nearly one hum
dred years ago where, in spite of the
enemy's heavy fire, the Americans were
hard to kill. In his ''Naval Actions Of
the War of 1872" James Barnes relates
how Lieutenant Yarnell three times
wounded, returned to his post; how the
wounded men in the cockpit of the Law
renee crawled back on deck when Perry
called out, "Can any wounded man below
there pull a rope?" how Midshipman For
rest, hit by a grapeshot, fell at Perry's
hurt, lad?" with mo, sir; not much,

The Island City glitters on the bay,
Pride of the Summer sea,
And sky and wave exultant homage pay
Her blooming royalty.
The Harbor CLEANS with myriad snowy sail
That wait her queenly will;
She wraps the mist about her like a veil,
And every oar is still.
But as the Sun outpours his ardent ray,
Afar her beauties show;
Bright awnings, snowy tents, pavilions gay,
With life and lustre glow.
No hiding place is this for mournful fate,
No sorrow here is guest;
These summer palaces are dedicate
To pleasure and to rest.
Here Fashion plumes her brilliant, airy wing,
And brightens sea and Shore
rainbow colored transitory thing,
Now here, now seen no more.
Pleased with the brief exotic revelry
Of this ephemeral train,
In proud delight the city of the sea
Assumes imperial reign;
While in his solitude, serene and high,
The Island Genius sits,
Unconscious of the rose. winged butterfly
Which Ger his f.otstool fits.

Sailing Vessels~in Demand.

Still further advances are reported in
the rates for sail tonnage, and vessel own
ers are correspondingly happy. Rates
are higher than for years and orders are
in the market for vessels that cannot be
filled. A few weeks ago vessels were
receiving only 60 cents per ton for carry
ing coal from Chesapeake Bay ports.
Now the market is firm at ST per ton.
The entry of steam Golfers and new
barges into the field has not had the eff
feet that shipping people predicted. It
was thought that it would eventually
drive the sailing vessels from the coal
carrying trade, but apparently this con-
clusion was entirely wrong as the demand
is greater at present than it has been for
years. Boston Globe.

of the schooner Mentor of Castine had
been lowed into Stonington by Capt.

tug. The craft was caught in south
east gale east of Monhegan Tuesday
night and sprang leak. Loaded with
granite shipped from Stonington, Me-,

valued at $1,000 and was owned here,
was not insured. The cargo was insured.

Of brilliant beauty; and within her girth
Such charms as Paradise might well display.

And quiet lakes where silver streamlets run.
Around her pours the sea, and evermore
