NYE VISITS THE NAVY YARD.
He Strikes a Big Man-of War on a
Washing Day.
OttN**rs Treat Him Kirnlly and He

Drug Store—Conveniently Located.
Mil 1 Vve in New York World.
It has become such a general practice
to speak disrespectfully of the I'nited
States navy that a few days ago I de
cided to visit the Brooklyn navy yard
for the purpose of ascertaining, if possi
b'e, how raueh cause there might be for
this light and airy manner of treating
the navy, and, if necessary, to take im
mediate steps toward purifying the sys
tem.
1 found that the matter had been gross
|v misrepresented and that our navy, so
far as 1 was able to discover, is self-sus
taining. It has been thoroughly refitted
and refurnished throughout, and is as
pleasant a navy as one would see in a
day’s journey.
I had the pleasure of bparding the man
of-war Richmond under a flag of truce
and the Atlantic under a suspension of
the rules. I remained some time on
board each of these war ships, and any
in hi who speaks lightly of the United
States navy in my presence hereafter
will receive a stinging rebuke.
The Brooklyn navy yard was inaugu
rated by the purchase of forty acres of
ground in 1801. It has a pleasant water
front, which is at all times dotted here
and there with new' war vessels under
going repairs. Since the original pur
chase others have been made and the
land side of the yard inclosed by means
of a large brick wall, so that in case there
should be a local disturbance in Brook
lyn the rioters could not breakthrough
and bite the navy. In this way a man
on board the Atlanta, while at anchor in
Brooklyn, is just as safe as he would be
at home.
In order to enter and explore the navy
vgid it is necessary that one should have
a pass. This is a safeguard, wisely adopt
ed bv the commandant, in order to keep
ou t strangers who inightget in under the
pretext of wishing to view the yard and
aft erwards attack one of the new vessels.
On the day I visitgd the navy yard
just ahead of me a plain but dignified
person in citizen's dress passed through
the gate. He had the bearing of an offi
rcr, I thought, and kept his eye on some,
object about nine and one-fourth miles
ahead as lie walked past the guard. He
wa"< told to halt, but, of course, lie did
not do so. He was above it. Then the
guard overhauled him, and even felt in
his pockets, lor his pass, as I supposed.
Concealed on his person the guard found
four pint bottles filled with the essence 4) f
crime. They poured the poor man’s rum
mi the grass and then fired him out, ac
companied by a rebuke which will make
him more deliberate about sitting down
for a week or two.
The feeling against arduous spirits in
tin* United States navy is certainly on
the increase and the day is not far dis
tant when alcohol in a free state will only
b<- used in the arts, sciences, music, liter
ature and the drama.
The Richmond is a large but buoyant
vessel, painted
stairway hanging over the balcony, and
the latch-string to the front door was
banging cheerily out. as we drew* along
side. During an engagement, however,
on the approach of the enemy, the front
stairs are hauled up and the latch-string
is pulled in, while the commanding officer
makes the statement, “April Fool,”
through a speaking-trumpet, to the cha
grined and infuriated foe.
The Richmond is a veteran of the late
war, a war which no one ever regretted
more than 1 did; not so much because of
the bloodshed and desolation it caused
at the time, but on account of the rude
remarks since made to those who did not
believe in the war, and whose feelings
have been repeatedly hurt by reference
to it since the war closed.
The guus of the Richmond are muzzle
loaders, i. e,, the load or charge of am
munition is put into the outer end of the
gun instead of the inner extremity or
base of the gun, as is the case with the
breech-loader. The breech-loader is a
great improvement on the old style gun,
making warfare a constant source of de
lirious joy now, whereas in former times
in case of a naval combat during a se
vere storm, the man who went outside
the ship to load the gun, while it was
raining, lrequeutly contracted pneumo
nia.
Modern guns are made with breeches,
which may be easily removed during a
fight and replaced when visitors come on
board. A sort of grim humor pervades
the above remark.
The Richmond is about to sail away to
China. I do not know why she is going
to (’hina, but presume slie does not care
to be here during the amenities, anti
pathies and aspersions of a Presidential
campaign. A man-of-war would rather
make some sacrifices generally than to
I must here say that I would rather be
iptured by our naval officers than by
uiy other naval officers I have ever seen,
rhe older officers were calm and self-pos
sessed during my visit on board both the
Richmond and the Atlanta, and the
young fellows are as handsome as a steel
engraving. While gazing on them as
hey proudly trod the quarter deck or
my other deck that needed it, I was
proud of my sex. and I could not help
thinking that had I been au unprotected
but beautiful girl, hostile to the United
States, I could have picked out five or
six young men there to either of whom I
would be glad to talk over the details o f
an armistice. I could not help enjoying
fully my hospitable treatment by the
officers above referred to after having
been only a little while before rudely re
pulsed and most cruelly snubbed by a
haughty young cotton-stock broker in a
New York store.
When will people ever learn that the
way to have fun with me is to treat me,
for the time being, as an equal?
It was wash day oil board ship, and 1
could not help noticing how the tyrant
man asserts himself when he becomes
sole boss of the household. The rule on
board a man-of-war is that the first man
who on wash day shall suggest a ‘’pick
ed-up-dinner” shall be loaded into the
double-barreled howitzer and shot into
the bosom of Venus.
On the clothes line I noticed very few
frills. The ingerie on board a war vessel
is severe in outline and almost harsh in
detail. Here the salt breezes search in
vain for the singularly sawed-off and
fluently trimmed toga of our home life.
Here all is changed. From the basement
to the top of the lightning rod, from pit
to dome, as I was about to say, a bellig
erent ship on wash day is not gayly ca
parisoned.
The Atlanta is a fair representative of
the modern war vessel and would be the
most effective craft in the world if she
could use her guns. She has all the mod
ern improvements, hot and cold water*
electric lights, handy to depots and a
good view of the ocean, but when she
shoots off her guns they pull out her cir
cles, abrade her deck, concuss her rotun
da, contuse the main brace and injure
people who have always been friendly to
the government. Her guns are now
being; removed and new circles put in, so
that in future she will be enabled to give
less pain to her friends and squirt more
gloom into the ranks of the enemy. She
is at present as useful for purposes of de
fense as a revolver in the bottom of a
loeked-up bureau drawer, the key of
which is in the pocket of your wife’s dress
in a dark closet, wherein also the bur
glar is, for the nonce, concealed.
Bricks for streets.
Mr. James Bowron Has. a Word to Say
About tlie Discussion.
Mr. James Bowron, in an informal dis
cussion oil the pavement of streets with
bricks, said recently:
“111 the north of Englaud'hundreds of
streets are paved with bricks made from
blast furnace slag, and the experience of
twenty years has proved that the econo
my of the practice is equal to that in
volved by the use of vvhinstone blocks,
said whinstone being taken from the old
trap dikes in the immediate neighbor
hood, and being cheaper and harder than
granite.
“The blast furnace slag for this pur
pose is run molten into water, which
granulates it. It is then crushed to a
coarse powder between rolls to which it
is conveyed by an endless chain of per
forated buckets, removing it automati
cally from the pit into which it is first
run. Another couveyor delivers it from
the rolls into an ordinary pugging mill,
where it is mixed-with 1% or 2 per cent,
of cement into a paste. This is then
pressed under hydraulic pressure into a
plain or countersunk brick, which may
at pleasure be shaped either for paving
use or for building. The bricks are then
removed and allowed to air dry for about
three weeks, and are then ready for use.
“The material costs nothing; no fuel
is involved in burning, nor is there any
waste as in the ordinary kilns. The cost
of manufacturing in England is about
$3 per thousand. The bricks are sharp
and clean, exceedingly hard and durable,
and of a bluish gray color which is more
pleasant to the eye than the glaring red
of the clay brick. I may say incidentally
that there appears to be some faint odor
about the bricks which is objected to by
vermin, and it is said rats have never
been found in any of the houses built
with this material.”
“In this day of keen competition in so
many industries it would seem as though
there was an opening in this line for .a
new occupation, which might be both
profitable to the manufacturer and use- >
ful to our city.”
SECURED THE CONTRACT-
A Macon Company Reaching Out into the
Cities of North Georgia.
Macon Telegraph.
As stated in the Telegraph of yester
day, the Jeter & Boardman Gas and
Water Company secured the contract for
building the waterworks at Cartersville.
This is a thirty-year contract at $2,500
a year, to be increased as the city grows
and demands more hydrants, etc.
Mr. Jeter returned last night and is
highly elated over Cartersville’s future.
He says the new furnaces being erected
and other extensive enterprises being
inaugurated, together with her natural
advantages and the best iron ore in the
world, must make Cartersville one of the
big cities of Georgia.
The Jeter & Boardman company have
now a business going into the millions.
Having completed the Brunswick works
amounting to $125,000 they now have
contracts in force at Tampa, Florida,
150,000; Ocala, 60,000, Tuscaloosa,
Alabama, $125,000,-Sumter, South Caro
lina, 840.000, and now Fartersville
875,000.
This is thoroughly a Macon institution,
and as such the Telegraph is glad to
elm nicle its widening business.
SUNKEN TREASURE.
Rumored Discovery of Millions Barb'd
Beneath the Waves in 17D8.
Special to St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Philadelphia, Pa., August B.— Dr.
Seth Pancoast, of 931 Arch street, who
lots spent $12,000 in the past two years
trying to locate the sunken English
sloop-of-war Braak, came up from the
Breakwater this morning, and after re
maining at his house long enough to
write three or four telegrams hurried to
the Broad street station and took a
train for New York. He was excited
over the discovery made by Capt. Charles
A. Adams and Lieut. Geo. P. Blow, of the
navy, who are positive that they have
at last located the Braak, which was
supposed to have on board $10,000,000
in gold and silver when she went down on
the 28th of May, 1798.
Dr. Pancoast went to New l~ork to get
four or five of the best divers that money
can procure. He will hurry back to this
city, and, if possible, will leave the Broad
street station for Lewes on the 3:01
train to-morrow afternoon over the Del
aware division of the Philadelphia, Wil
mington and Baltimore road.
The steamboat City of Long Branch,
whifch was fitted lip at an expense of sev
eral thousand dollars, left this city ten
days ago, thoroughly equipped to spend
the summer and next winter searching
for the sunken sloop. Capt. Adams, who
has been in the navy twenty-five years,
and Lieut. Blow had charge of the expe
dition, and all the necessary charts and
nautical implements were furnished by
the Government. The discovery of the
sloop was made late on Tuesday when a
diver brought up a petrified piece of oak
wood, of which the Braak was built.
The grappling irons were covered with
verdigris, and strong evidences that the
irons had come in contact with the cop
per which was on the Braak at the time
she sunk. The City of Long Branch lies
directly over the supposed wreck. The
irons are lowered in twelve fathoms of
water three-quarters of a mile out from
the Break water, the same spot, accord
ing to calculations, where the grappling
ironscame in contact with copper two
years ago.
Divers have started down several
times, but have not been able to reach
bottom as yet. Some of their appa
ratus has given out and it is to supple
ment this, also, that Dr. Pancoast
started so hastily for New York.
That gentleman has no doubt that the
sunken vessel has been found and all the
stockholders are jubilant over the pros
pect of suddenly acquiring enormous
wealth. Should the rumored find prove
to be reliable there is little doubt that
the explorers will be richly rewarded. A
syndicate composed principally of Phila
delphians is interested in the recovery of
the treasure. James J. Kane is at the
head of it, although Dr. Pancoast, who
has so persistently worked to find the
treasure, is the man who organized the
syndicate and delivers theshares of stock
and receives the money. 100 shares of
stock were issued at S3OO per share.
About eighty of the shares were sold
about the middle of July, and the cashier
of the Second National Bank of Hoboken
purchased the remaining twenty shares.
The Government had such firm faith in
the prospect that it lent its aid on con
dition of receiving 10 per cent, of the
profits.
The sloop was capsized in 1798, and
had unknown treasure on board. Capt.
Charles Sanborn, a noted submarine
diver, who in 1867 contemplated secur
ing a concession from the Government
for raising the vessel, visited Halifax for
the purpose of getting information. He
secured a newspaper published in 1798.
It contains the following account of the
loss of ehe vessel:
‘ H. B. M. sloop-of-war Braak, we are
informed, was capsized off the Cape of
Delaware, returning from a successful
cruise off’the Spanish Main. She had on
board seventy tons of copper and an
immense amount of treasure, consisting
of gold and silver bars and precious
stones.”
Capt. Sanborn afterwards went South,
with the intention of returning the fol
lowing spring and commencing opera- j
tions. While there he was taken sick
and died.
Log Cabins were the
most prominent feature

paign of 1840. At the
opening of the campaign,
