In view of the undertaking of the United States government looking to the completion of the Nicaragua canal, something con cerning the history of this great work will not prove uninteresting. The fii6t survey for the canal was made as far back as 1850, and civil engineers have continued to aflirm the entire feasibility of the work ; in aid of which nature has excava ted the major part of the route, and supplied it with the necessary water. The canal starts at the mouth of the San Juan river, at Greytown, on the Gulf of Mexico, and runs west by north 170 mileo to Crito, on the Pacific Ocean. With the exception of forty miles, this route is simply improving and unlocking a natural waterway. Length nearly twice that of the Suez Canal, and vastly more costly The canal is expected to accommo date thirty-two ships a day. The tolls, therefore, would need to he at least $000 per ship per trip through, to enable the canal to pay even a small dividened on the cost. The passage will be made, it is said, in thirty hours. The saving in distances will be from G.OOO to 7,000 miles in voyages from Great Britain, New "iork, and New Orleans, to San Francisco and the Orient, as compared with doublirg Gape Horn. If the stock is owned in the United States,, Great Britain will pay heavy toll to her early colony, the now United States ci America, a curious eventuality, Great Britain doing most of the carrying trade of the world. Still, the toll will be trifling as compaied with steaming thirty days, and lessened chance of shipwreck, and less wear and tear. Our coatt trade will be immensely benefited The desire was natural to woik under a charter granted by congress the most effective way of man ning them. Under the present system the seamen in the navy are mostly foreigners, who have no interest in the flag under which they serve. The reason of this is that no encouragement is given to American seamen to enlist in the navy. American yonths of spirit and ambition cannot be attracted to the navy by an exclusive and aristocratic policy under which en listed men can attain no higher promotion than that of a petty warrant officer. Unless this policy be amended, the crews of the new ships progressing to completion will be composed chiefly of for eigners. However admirable and efficient in other respects, the new navy with foreign crews would be wanting in an essential quality. 188 889 Those deluded persons who were induced to emigrate to Okla homa for the purpose of securing land in that territory, and failed, may take fresh courage. Negotia tions are being made to secure the tract in Indian territory known as the "Cherokee outlet," which will be opened to settlement. It covers about 6,000,000 acres and should furnish room for 1)5,000 homesteads besides school sections, town sites and waste lands. 1 88 SPRING AND St! 11 I 889 The Albanv Bakery !

UKISMEK AND PIIOEHE DAVIES, With their own sipeib company of recognized artists, in r rank liar vey's masterpiece, the power ful melodrama, "A y KXCL LSI YEA A7 A IliSTO CHATIC POLICY." In addition to the Yorktown and Vesuvius, which have made their trial trips, and the Charleston and Petrel, which are almost ready for trial. Secretary Tracy has control .of the construction of more than renty new ships that are now in process of completion. .Among these are an armored ship of 7,500 tons displacement, an unartnored cruiser of 5,300 tons, two others of j u.OOOtons each, a new dynamite) ship of the class of the Vesuvius, two gunboats of not more than 1,200 tons displacement, a coast defeuse ship, and a submarine torpedo-boat. Some of these ves sels are required to make a Fjeed f nineteen knots, and the new 5,300 ton cruiser must make a speed of at least twenty knots. The new dynamite gunboat is to reach twenty-one knots an hour. It is estimated that the cost of these vessels will be $13,000,000 exclusive of their guns. As a further legacy of the Cleveland administration it devolves upon Secretary Tracy to complete five dorble-turret moni tors, the armored ships Maine and Texas, and the six unarmored cruisers Baltimore, Newark, Phila delphia, San Francisco, Benning ton and Concord. When completed this will make a rather formidable navy, and there is no doubt that j considerable addition? will be made j to it bv the Fifty-first congress, j It will be some time belore mere will be any relaxation of this new enersrv in me wuit. vi ivUu struction.
