Dr. William Evan Darby, Secretary of the Peace "QUIDA," has addressed the following letter to Society, under the heading of "Decorated Batchers": "Sir,-Anyone who has forced him- self to read the sickening detalls of the Distance Ride, hom Berlin to Vienna and wicz varra, must be struck by the frightfal injury to the moral feeling of the populace of both pations done by this horrible spectacle of useless for laws to be framed and societies to be legalised and honoured torture.

Therefore." he gave his natural inclinations free play. and talked rubbish.

Toʻmany, no doubt, it may seem impossible to control the motion of such heavy structures la a sea-way. As a matter of fact, there is only one motion in a sea-way that is not preventable, and that is the vertical motion, which it is not necessary to control. The system of connection allows play room for that to a much greater extent than is necessary. The tendency, however, In a steamer of this design would be to lessen it. It is the lateral motion that could be easily diminished or prevented.

The captain and the chief englacer remained in the Uafted States with the vessel. Some Japan, and will we believe, go back to of the others, who are now here, were not called as witnesses at the Marine Court, but had to remain with the ship while repairs were in progress, so that they did not learn until afterwards what sort of story was told in Court.
