which makes them the longest vessels sfioat ; breadth, 57 feet six inches ; depth, 39 feet lour inches ; with a gross tonnage of nearly 10,000 tons.They are built of Siemens-Martin steel, and are furnished with two independent set» cf »riple expansion engines, driving twin propellers with manganese bronze blades.In fi rm and construction of hull they possess the distinctive features of their predecessors, the Adriatic, Britannic, Germanic.etc.Moreover, while they are similarly subdivided by athwartship bulkheads, they are also constructed with a - longitudinal bulk head running fore and aft throughout the greater portion of their length.Tnia gives additional rigidity and strength, and greatly increases the security of the ship in the event of collision.Ttree large taut pole masts

the close of ao almost continuous debate of nine months in Cmgress on the tariff question.By agreement the Senate is to proceed to a vote upon tfc*^substitute for the Af fills Bill at one o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, but if that limit is not extended some important provisions of the bill will have to be voted on with little or no consideration.In the Senate the schedules yet undisposed of are those which concern rice, gold leaf, lumber, cotton manufactures, wool and woollens, gloves, leather and molasses.Over wool and lumber the principal conflict has been raging before the subcommittee on Finance in charge of the bill, and members of the committee say, in consequence of tfce continued pressure from interested par ties, no agreement wilt be reached respecting these subjects until the very last moment.It ie likely tawed white pin* lumber will be admitted under a duty of $1.50 a thoussnd fee?, instead of $2 as at present.A provision will probably be inserted that in the case of lumber imported from countries that l»y an export duty en lumber (meaning Canada) the redaction shall not take effect.Michigan and Wisconsin lumbermen want such lumber to psy, in addition to the $1 50 duty, the amount of the export duty, which, in tfce case of lumber from Canady would be $2 a thousand.This might have a tendency, it is said, to cause Canada to repeal her export duty, but in case she did not such a provision would virtually make a prohibitory duty here, and that the committee want to avoid.Eber, attacked Mataafa\u2019s soldiers; under direction of the German consul and Cap tain

X VI.All that day tlfc touguea of the little onee at Holly Hill hail l».-en chattering unceasiogly of the expected vUit of Santa Claue that night.Aim.Statl'ord had tried to explain to Charlie \\and Kvelyn that it would he impoueible for him to bring them their preaenU this year ; tnt «ho was met with the undeniable and uu-anttworable «tatement that their fatlier had promised them, ikfcre going to bed they had hung their stockings on the mantcljnece right in front of the chimney, so that Manta Claus would be sure to see them.The mother had broken down over Kvelyn \u2022 prayer, \u201c not to forget my papa, and not to forget my dolly,\u201d and her tears fell silently after the little ones were asleep, as she put the finishing touches to the tiny gray uniform for Charlie.She was thinking not only of the children\u2019s disappointment, but of the abac nee of him on whoso promise they had so securely relied.He had been away now for a year, and she had had no word of him for many weeks.Where was he Î Was he dead or alive?Mrs.Stafford sank on her knees by the bedside.\u201c0 God, give me faith like this little child I\u201d she prayed again and again.Mho was startled by hearing a step on the front portico and a knock at the door.Bob, who was working in front bf the hall fire, went to the door.His mother heard him answer doubtfully some question.She opened the door and went out.A stranger with a large bundle or pack stood on the threshold.His hat, which was still on his head, was pulled down over his eyes, and he wore a beard.\u201cAn\u2019, leddy, wad ye bay so koind as to shelter a poor stranger for a noight at this hlissid toim of pace and good-will ?\u201d he said, in a strong Irish brogue.\u201cCertainly,\u201d said Airs.Stafford, with her eyes fixed on him.She moved slowly up to him.Then, by an instinct, quickly lilting her hand, she pushed his hut back from his eyes.Her husband clasped her in his arms.\u201c My darling !M When the pack was opened, such a treasure-house of toys and things was displayed as surely never greeted any other eyes.The smaller children, including Kan, were not aw aked, at their father's request, though Mrs.Stafford wished to wake them to see him ; but Hob was let into the secrets, except that he was not permitted to see a small package which l>orc his name.Mrs.Stafford and the Colonel wore like two children themselves as they tripped about stuffing the long stockings w ith candy and toys of all kinds.The beautiful doll with flaxen hair, all arrayed in silk Ïnd lace, was seated, last of all, securely on op of Kvelyn\u2019s stocking, w ith her wardrobe just below her, where she would greet her young mistress wh*n she should first open her eyes, and CharUe's little blue uniform was pinned beside the gray one his mother had made, with his sword buckled around the waist.Hob was at last dismissed to his room, and the Colonel and Mrs.Stafford settled themselves before the tire, hand in hand, to talk over all the past.They had hardly started, when Hoh rushed down the stairs and dashed into their room.\u201c Papa ! papa ! the yard\u2019s full of Yankees ! \u201d Both the Colonel and Mrs.Stafford sprang to their feet.\u201cThrough the backdoor !\u201d cried Mrs.Stafford, seizing her husband.\u201cHe cannot get out that way\u2014they are everywhere ; I saw them from my window,\u201d gasped Hoh, just as the souud of trampling without became audible.\u201cOh, what will you do?Those clothes ! If they catch you in those clothes ! \" began Airs.Stafford, and then stopped, her face growing ashy pale.Hob also turned even whiter than he had been before.He remembered the young man who was found in citi-scen\u2019s clothes in the autumn, and know his dreadful fate.He hurst out crying.\u201cOh, papa ! will they hang you ?\u201d ho sobbed.\u201cI hope not, my son,\u201d said the Colonel, gravely.\u201cCertainly not, if I can prevent it.\u201d A gleam of amusement stole into his eyes.\u201cit s an awkward fix, certainly,\u201d ho added.\u201c Vou must conceal yourself,\u201d cried Mrs.Stafford, os a number of footsteps sounded on the porch, and a thundering knock shook the door.\u201cCome here.\u201d Mhe pulled him almost, by main force into a closet or entry and locked t the door, just as the knocking was renewed.\u2022 t As the door was apparently about to be broken down, she went out into the hall.Her face was deadly white, aud her lips were moving.\u201cWhos there?\u2019 she exiled tremblingly, trying to gain time.\u2018\u2018Open the door immediately, or it will be broken down, \u2019 replied a stern voice.She turned the great iron key in the heavy old brass lock, and u dozen men rushed into the hall.They nil waited for one, a tall, elderly man in a General's fatigue uniform.»nd with a stern face nud a gm/lcd bcxrd.He addressed her.i\t^ ^avc oomc to take possession or >is house as my head-quarters.\u201d ills.Stafford bowed, unable to speak.She was sensible of a feeling of relief ; there was a gham of hope.If they did not know of her husband a presence- Hut the next word de stroyed it.\u201dY\\o have not interfered with you up to piesent tune, but you have been harboring * PY here and he is here now.\" I hero is no spy here, and has never been,\u201d looking like a flower lying in the tangle of golden hair which fell over her pillow.The noise disturbed her slightly, for she smiled suddenly, and muttered something alxmt \u201cSanta Tlaus\u201d and a \u201cdolly.\u201d The officer\u2019s gaze swept the room, and fell on the overcrowded stockings hanging from the mantel.He advanced to the fireplace and examiued the doll aud trousera closely.With a curious expression ou his face, ho turned and walked out of the room, closing the doer softly behind him.\u201c Major, ho said to the officer in charge of the searching party, who descended the steps just then, \u201c take the men hack to camp, except the sentinels.There is no spy here.\u201d in a moment Mrs.Stafford came out of her chamber.Ihe old officer was walkiug up and down in deep thought.Suddenly he turned to her: \u2018\u2018Madam, he so kind as to gs and tell ( olouel Stafford that General Denby desires him to surrender himself.\u201d Mrs.Stafford was struck dumb.She was unable to move or to articulate.\u201cI shall wait for him,\u201d said the General, quietly, tiirowing himself into an arm-chair, and lookiug steadily into the fire, (To be Continued.) CHI LDREN\u2019S CORNER, A STORMY SUNDAY.J10PK DAniNO, It was a stormy Sunday.I thought my ola*s in Sabbath-school would be small, but resolved to risk the half-mile walk, hoping some of my girls would be brave enough to venture out.As I approached the church I «aw Mr.Clifford\u2019s carriage drive away, and on going into the vestibule, I found Faye Clifford.She was a lovely girl, the petted darling of a half-dozen worldly prothers and sisters.A year ago she had consecrated her life to Christ aud lier influence wae already making a difference in her home.\u201c Coming out in this storm is one way of letting your light shine,\u201d I said, as I kissed her.\u201cI am glad you think so.Papa said the carriage might come for me after churcli and that 1 might take you home then.\u201d V\\ o found but one in the accu«tomcd seat, Fanny Smith, whose sunny .face was the light of her poor widowed mother\u2019s cottage.Just as the superintendent rose to open the school, Grace Gluey, another of my scholars, entered the room.She was a bright, laugh-twelve.Her black eyes were always ready to sparkle with enthusiasm, or gluten with tears, as the subject of our les son changed from the grand to the pathetic, but to all appeals to seek God as her Father Grace shook her head and said, \u201cNot now.\" \u201c I am glad it rains, Miss Hope,\u201d she said, as she greeted ns, \u201c for think what a nice time wo can have, just us three, so we can have you all ourselves,\"\t\u2022 1 he opening services were over and we turned to the lesson.It was w'ell learned by my c lass, ns w-as always the case.A part of each Sunday lesson was the repeating of a verse by each of us, containing a certain word, the word to be announced a week in advance.Our word for to day was \u201c abide.\" I lirst turned to tannic, who inatender, reverential voice repeated, \u201c And Ilw ill pray the Father and lie shall jrive you another comforter, that lie may abide with you forever.\u201d Grade's verse was, \u201c They that trust in the Lord shall be as Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but alddeth forever.\u201d Now it was Faye's turn.With a smile she said, \u201cMiss Hope, you once told mo you loved the fifteenth c lapter of John.It may be we have selected the same.\u2018If yc abide in me and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will and it shall he done unto you.\u2019 \u201d \u2018That is a favorite of mine, Faye, but I selected for to-day\u2019, \u2018Ifyckecpmy commandments ye shall abide in my love, even os I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.\u2019\u201d \u201cI am not sure I know what it means,\u201d said Faye ; \u201cabide means to live or stay.\u201d \"What do the rest of you think ?\u201d I asked, for I always w ished them to talk freely.Btmnosfi Cards.WHEAT PHOSPHATES, (acid.)
