The fleet consists of the flag ship Alexandra, the Dreadnought, the Thunderer, the Su- perb, the Temeraire, the Agamemnon, the Iris and torpedo ram Polyphemus. These ships, the most jwwerful in the English na^-y, have been cruising about the eastern Mediterranean since the blockade of Greece, and are now moving northward to the ports of Asia Minor. During their stop at Alex- andria last week the Duke of Edinburgh was royally entertained, ilespite the ill-feel- ing resulting from the last bombardment. As the squadron steamed around Ras Bey rout at daylight and swung around at anch- or before the city the sight was impressive. At 8 o'clock the town was reminded of its visitors by the thunder of ordnance, which was feebly answered by the guns of the Turkish garrison, as the Engli^ flags ran up from the deck of each floating leviathan. AH Bey rout seemed to rush to the water front to inspect the ' most powerful naval squadron afloat. In their eager curiosity Iiundreds put off in small boats to inspect the ships near at hand. THE DCKE OF EDINBrRGH and nearly 200 officers arranged tc visit Damascus. Messrs. Cook Co. looked after the ways and means. Every mark of res- pect has been shown the Duke, and to-day, as your correspondent was riding to Beyrout from the mountains, he met large numbers of Lebanon soldiers mounted, who were on their way to escort the Duke to-morrow on his -way from Damascus. The English vice- consul has arranged a reception for the offi- cers at his summer house at Beit Maryonthe Lebanons, three hours ride from the city. Few English and American houses on the mountains have been without a guest or two from the fleet. No photograph or description can begin to give the full impression an English fleet makes upon the beholder. The fine article which appeared last winter in Harper';* Mag- az'm-e, did all that words can do. But to pull out under the shadows of the great hulks and see the monstrous guns looking down upon you, gives a new and startling sensa- tion. Concentrated power seems embodied in every line. In fact there is very little of beauty in the whole fleet. Only oiie ship, the Iris, is at all attractive, but this swift cruiser (making 18i knots) is certainly a beautiful craft. She is a steel despatch boat, does not carry any heavy guns, and has oulyli inch steel decks over themachin- erj' boilers and magazines. All the other boats are positively ugly. Every other idea -has surrendered to the de- sire for efficiency. The flagship, the Alex- andra (named after England's future queen), is somewhat ornamented, but the effect is verj' far from pleasing. As one looks over the -whole fleet he realizes that the old clays of na^* 1 warfare are over â€" the wild, dashing days, w hen the ocean was made beautiful with the towering canvas of frigate and cut- ter, and when success "depended qtiite as much on skill as on ^uns. How Languages are Formed. It has been a perplexity to schoiars how such a vast variety of languages and dialects can have originated in our world, especially if they all grew out of one original tongue. Mr. Horatio Hale says in Wr»ecethat the perplexity will be removed if scholars will look low enough, and take in children as well as adults. He gives several striking cases of groups of children accustomed to play \«ith each other, and left mostly to themselves, who formed langages which they used with per feet freedom and understood with ease, but which were quite unintelligible to others. If children can do this in play, it would be a simple matter for adults, placed in an isolated position, and cut off from com- munication with the rest of the world, to make a new language for their own Ijene- fit. Mr. Hale offers some substantial argu- ments to prove that language-speaking men have n(jt existed in our world for more than seven thousand years. His article is worthy of a careful study of its original suggestions. MEiltDEN BRITANNIA go: MANUFACTURE ONLY SNOWORiF! .THE Silver Plated Ware.
