The
of study will comprise those being in preparatory schools, the work usually conducted by twenty-five professors and instructors. The number of pupils will be limited to two hundred and fifty.
Protracted cruises over many seas, visits to all lands, and contact with a great varioty of people and customs, give unequalled op- portunities for special studies, such as com- merce and economics, science and natural history, that it would be impossible to obtain if shore.

iuduced by legislation. As an illustration,
he mentioned the case of a vessol that had
been lost it had sufficient freeboard to CIGARETTES-
satisfy the demands of the law twice over, But still it turned over. The freoboard allowed was 7 in. on a vessel 13 ft. 6 in. wido. Taking the structural side of the question, if water ballast were necessary. then the ideal method would be that the water-ballast space should be used for cargo, Water ballast in double bottoms was more or less of a makeshift, and if more water ballast were needed, all present vessels should be reconstructed. For the safety of the ship, the middleline bulkhead should he water-tight. Another method of reduc ing risk from free water was that of fitting. transverse bulkheads, which would cut the body of water up into smaller parts. There had been cases in which the water ballast tanks had not been divided, heing open from end to end, with disastrous results.- Engineering.

The terms under bas been accepted which the loan
are of such a peculiar character that
The Governor, it is said, negotiated with a German firm, for the loan, which was for a sum of $300,000,, and agreed to give a bonus of 10 per cent.; to pay interest at the rate of 83 per cent. for two years; to take 8160,000 in arms and ammunition.
