The Cast of the convict huCka Is now lying at the East India, docks, and a most dUsreputaMe old carcass she looks. From her broken-nosed figure-head to the peel ing woodwork of her stern she flaunts a equated disrepute. She has been built 105 yeans, and she looks every one ot Uiom; she has been sunk in Sydney Har bor, and from tail appea.ru,nce rhe might have Judt been token up; she as a con vict, and nobody could Imagine her any. thing eCe. She has acquired a most flitting local color. None the lefcs, the Success Is a moot interesting oM boat; she has been brought over hore by a icouipany which, has stuff ed her ceUJs wJUh wax figures, and in tha ipwcess of adapting her interior to what is Imagined to be the needs of the pub- C'lc, hais cleared up and cleaned away something of the dlrt.and a littlenot much of the horrible consitruc-tioa of the 'bottom row of this ship's ceOa WhlSe the thlp lasts, however and It is likely to last a good deal long-ar, seeing that It Is built of teak, as hard as Iron and as tlhk-k as the 'wiaUls of a Norman church- it -will not bo possible to clear away all the horrors of the prison. Howsver un imaginative you may be, you cannot stand In the bootom tier of the honey comb of celts without realizing 'the black desperatloni of the convicta who were chained liere In the dark. TUey were oaMed itilie eolitury sixty. They never Idflt the thip as others of the convicts did to work (n the quarries. Most wei-e In cedls 4 feet by 7 feet. Some of the worst were herded together In a common den, wuiere penouicailvy Ithey throtu'ed one aliouher In the migUU. The solitary sixty, most of them, carried from twen ty to forty poumto weight of irons. Tnere are two celis whicih are 2 feet 8 inches wilde, and are very nearly air- tlglht. A man chained here to an iron ring in the sMe could neither Ue down, nor eit down, nor kneel down. He couCd not see, ft -was as much as he coutd do to breaithe, and the Interchange of blasphemies between hlmset'f and his companions was the only thing that preserved to him his reason, For the dtalpOlne, the triangles, the necklace a contrivance which kept a row of men standing 'for a day in the torture ot racking oraimp the Irons, the seventy- two-pound -leg tihot, the flogging were power-leas to eubdue the Indomitable spirit of the SuUtary sixty. They show you a cat o' nine tails among the relics of the Success-A weapon with nine sir pents of catgut, as thick ns blind cord, and twisted with -wire. One of the ilxty has had his back scored and crossed iwiuh forty Coshes of this uawinclng, and then has turned round from the triangle offering to fight the bidt oftlcer on board. There Is a fascination about the etvlp, but there Is not a rel-eemlng memory abcut It. The Inapector-general of the Ship m-os John Price, Some of the hull oonvtcto iwho were alCowed to work at the quarries 'battered in his head with a tlhovel. There Is a chapel on board a place that looks like a cage for hyenas, except that it is darker. The chaplain of the ship -used to stand c-utaJde ths bars and preach alt the twelve or four teen most penitent ruffians aboard. It waa a reward for good conduct, and the men liked It as a diversion, The better btlhaved prisoners 'were put 'In the midd'.e deck cells, which were only 7 feet by 4 feet, but permitted a glimmer of tight. The teawt refractory were put tiiree to gether in style 7 feet by 7 feet. Thus was a device highHy favorablo to the formation of mutinies, of which' there 'Were sever-all; but they oil ended In the tfiiootlng of one or more prisoners and the flogging of the rest, together with a descent to the dark eels. In these the floor Is worn away here and there by the rubbing of the irons es the convicts tried to And a position In which they could rest moro easily. There are two other facts about the ship, among a numbering of interesting oneu, that are especially remarkable. One is that she was only saved from destruction to re main a, somewhat scandalous memorial: of Uhe treatment of convicts forty years ago by an accident. The government, In st-DlIng these hulks, used to stipulate thait they chould be broken up.

' If this is not done, tlhe situation wll settle down Into a permanent disagreement, with wttflcOi the three ri elvers named will IlkeTjy have to deal as best they can. The Portland Ort-gonlan, In a recent Is sue, epeaMtng edttorlaCy of certain classes of newspapers, saj-s: " Almotit every small town allows soma vile publication calling Itself a news paper to live by threatening' to make ex posure of the peccadilloes. Irregularities or private transactions In ths lives of citizens which they would prefer to keep concealed. Portland is not yet large enough to be free from these pests, and it is not to be expected, perhaps, that Astoria should be free from them. Yet the citizens of any town are responsible nor the existence of such publications among' them. Astoria has one that is particularly noisome. Its editor Is one of the most loathsome of his olass. He has been Indicted and convicted of libel, has bsen whipped and kicked about the streets till men feel that It is a disgrace to themselves to cudgel or kick him any more; and yet there are some who still are afraid he might print something against them. They are very weak. It Is not necessary either to kick, to horse whip, or to be in the least afraid of the varlets who print papers of that clans, or to pay them for silence. Just lot them alone.
