Tun Yorlt'own and Vesuvius, two new vessels for the United Kta'es navy write launched at Philadelphia, on April 2-th. The Nenrotnryof tho Navy with a large number of tjur-Hti were present, having beon brought frilm Washington by a special train. The Yorktown, the larger of the two vessels, is linarmored, 2.11 feel lonff, 30 fort wide, and with a mean draught of 14 feet. She measures 1,700 tons. The Vesuvius is built of steel, 21G feet ling, 2S' fiet wido and with S,1 feet mean draught. She is 11!. feet longer than the Yorktown ami only a little ox'er two-thirds her width, and measures 7C0 tons. They urn both pro polled by twin screws. The hitter vessel is to be armed with the Zolinaki torpedo gun, wbiou is described as follows; Tho accuracy and efficiency of the weapon oan be judged of from the record. lint while that trial, successful ns it proved, was cieoiited with an eight inch guu, the new vessel is to carry three guns of sixteen inch cali er. Vastly greater deatruntive ponero will be developed by them. They will throw projectiles each containing nix hundred pounds of explosive gelatine a distanco ef ox'er a mile. The guns me Is bo oap ublo of maintnining u rate of dkiohurge of two projectiles per unintitn. The threit lubes are to be placad for xvard in the ship, thoir e;ids projuoliug above the duck xvell forward while their breeches are down in the hold. They are to be set at a fixed nngle of 10 degrees. Tho inngo is to be adjusted by varying the amount of air admitted. The eight inch projuotile has reached n dentruo tive range of one milo with about tho name elevation. The rango will undoubt edly be much groater with tho larger projectile. All the details of the load ing and discharging mechanism are to lie as perfect, and automatic as possible. Within tho hold are stowed a quantity of heavy tuboa to contain the coinpresHod air In firiiv? practice, the distance of tint mark roust be estimated and the dis charge valve set accordingly. The ves sel is then turned until the gun points to the m irk, when the projectile is dis charged. Hhotild the vessel bo rolling, the dischnrgo must take place whn she is on nn even keel, the artillerist wait ing his time. The pitching will tend to Iter the range, hut owing to tho high trajectory tho effnet will bo far loss than in ordinary gun practice. An inclina tion of over 4 dagrees, duo to pitching, is not looked for in ordinary sea. The Yorktown having no prejooling keel on her bottom, bilge keels are pro vided, one on each side. These are de signed to counteract any undiio tenden cy to rolling. Unr bow, which is strengthf urd iu'ernally, projects forward below the water line, so us to form an ellicient ram. The stem is ndoniod with quite nn elaborate carving in place of n figurehead, and near the top, direct ly iu tho line of the stern, an ominous opening appears, from whence it is pro posed tu eject torpedoes The stern over hangs the rudder to such nn extent us to appear quite ungrgooful when out of witter. The Secretary of the Navy litis taken a great interest in the construc tion of these formidable war ships, which would destroy a whole Hoot of ordinary gui boats. Huri'Nitn is literally unprotected ngiiinnt lire, ami it would seem tho right thing to take naming at tho fata of (loldendale and l'alonse city and make preparations for some protection, A reservoir on either the Nelse Jones' place or tho lliilhvlt property would gix'e enough pressure to put out I'n es, by tnking water directly from the mains. Tho water could be raised to the reser voir by a III) horse power engine, placed at n xvell down by the oreek. This would not only furnish water for fire purposes, but would assist to beautify town property, by affording water for front yards, during tho dry season If the corporation is not wealthy enough to do t his, there are a number of eiti zens xvho hare capital, that oould put in wutvr works, and it would he a pay ing invest.. unit, us such an enterprise would be liberally patronized by both the city and individuals. It is claimed that the spirtu slist fraud now on trial in Now York, Miss Diss I'o Bar, was at one time a resident of Hslina, Kansas. It is an exceedingly chilly day when Kansas fail to appear conspicuously before tho public gener ally, however, the Suntlower iipars more oreditublv than in this instance. The woolen manufacturers decline to piirohnsa wool except for immediate needs, prices have declined three cents and they expect a considerable further decliue when tho Mills tariff bill goes inU operation, if Congress is successful in passing H with the tariT knocked ofl from rool. The political fever in this eeotionisj uotr nt the top notch, nnd earnest dtn oornts nnd republicans tire taking each other's opinion on the preset. political issu"a. Bji after all it is only a nait?h b:rly, friendly talk, which will he decid ed nt the coming presidential election. The coming campaign has been proph esied to be one of intense excitement. There is no good retaon for nnj thing of tho kind, end we hope to Bee the next president elected as quietly as that great event demands. NOTES FKOM LEXINGTON. Born.

Weather very dry, and the wind blow ing alm"t constantly. Some of the farmers are gutting very much discour aged. Pasture on the range is short, and as nearly nil of the springs are fenced in, the cattle have to go quite a dibtunce sometimes to get water. Mr. M. J. Swift has moved to the mountains. He expects to curry on the shingle making business. Shoep shearers aro still busy. Quite n number of bands have buou removed to the mountains. Hubert Halley is located at Lone Rock. He is iu the tin-ware business, and his wife has u fancy store. Wm. Halley attended the prohibition convention lit Hoppnor. He spoke of the ladies of lleppner being interested in this cause. This speaks very highly of those ladies.

IUt.t. RE.PUr.LICAN COLU1TN. This column is devoted to the inter ests of the rep ililioan p irty, and we are not responsi tie for anything that may appear in L. Gen. Jackson on the constitutionality and inditpensibility of the protection et Amercau industry, frjm his second annu al mestage lf . Second American Statesman, page Tho power to impose duties npon im ports originally belonged to the several states. The right to adjust these duties, with a view to the encourageraor.t of domestic industry, is so ooropletely iden tical with that power, that it is difficult to soppose the existence of the one with out th" other. The slates have dele gated their w hole authority over imports to the general government, without lim itation or restriction, saving the x-ery in considerable reservation relation to the inspection laws. This authority hnx-ing thus entirely passed from the states, the right to exercise it for tho purpose of protection does not exist in these: Riid consequently, if it bo not posessed by tho general government, it must be ex tinct. Our political system would thns present the anomaly of a people stripped of the right to foster their on industry, and to connteraot the most selfish and distrnctive policy which might he adopt ed by foreign nations. This surely can not be the case; this indispensibie pow er, thus surrendered by the states must lie within the scope of one authority en the subject, expressly delegated to Con gress. In this conclusion I am confirm ed, as will by the opinions of Presidents Washington. Jefferson, Madisou and Monroe, who have repeatedly recoin menJod this right under the constitu tion, ns by the uniform practice of Con gress, the continued acquiescence of the states, and the goneral understanding of the people. Wn.L Nor Sfkak. Theroa Fell was up from Arlington Monday, and was generally interviewed by wool men and politicians. To tho former, he eays; "Prospects for any advance over present low prices are not brilliant. The tariff agitation causes buyers to confine their operations within the limit ef possible tree trade basis, pending definite settle ment of that which will govern values in the future." There is such a close nn nlogy between wool and politics, that he discussed them interchangably. In re ply to an inquiry if he was going to make a political canvass he said: "No, I believe I can be of more service to the people of Morrow county at present, by looking utter our interests in railroad matters, and attending to business upon the wool platform at Arlington, than 1 can by stumping around over tho coun ty, haran uing the people concerning that whioh they understand quite as well, if not betlor than I do." W. It. Ellis, candidate for district attorney, has served in that oapaeity two terms, ono appointive, and has given tin iversal satisfaction. He is icspectod by both parties for his integrity and capa bility, ss not n word has ever been utter ed to his detrement. He li"es in Mor row county, is one of ns, and has nlwavp looked nfter the interests of the Rah! county. Could yon do bhttnr tlmn re elect, such a capable man to tho oflloo he seeks: And when tho June election dawns upon us. the entire district will be found to hnvo voiced the sentiments of the good people of Morrow. UEMOCltATIO COLUMN. This column is devnted to the inter ests of democracy, and we are not re sponsible for any thing that may appear in it. Tom Morgan will run n t.frong race for sheriff in our June election. Hit. friends will see that he is properly sup ported. One of the moiit efficient constables I'eppner precinct ever had. was Thoncas Morgan, He in a man who nbiden by the laws, mid expects others to do the same. This is the man who is before you this year for sheriff of Morrow conn ly. H'o?7i' for him, Tall: for him, Vote for him, and then you xvill have dene your duty. Tom Morgnn is now going the rounds xvith the "stump speakers." It is safe to sav that he will make many votes on this trip. STUAIP S PEAKING.
