NAM Uncle Sam's Ships Decorated Chiefly With Geographical Terms. From the New York T: ‘The nomenclature of the vessels of the United States navy is deficient in names made famous by acts of naval heroism, but abounds in geographical terms, which make 4 list of Uncle Sam's ships resemble an extract from a postal guide. There is @ class of vessels in the English navy known as the “admiral” class, where the rames of Nelson, Anson, Rodney, Ben- bow and other naval leaders may be found, ame. @nd this same method of perpetuating the ames of admirals exists in Russia. The m of preserving the names of vic- at is also erved in many countries by naming vessels after the place near which the fight occurred. But in the United States navy these customs cannot although the name of and reve! le. and the fleet contains z , a Cushing, a Porter, a Foote, @ Dahigren, a Dupont, a Goldsborough and Others T single-turreted monitors bear Indian Fames, such as Comanche, Catskiil, Canon- icus, Mahopac, Montauk, Wyandotte, but ot to the sion of ‘other names, for the list includes the names of Ajax and Manhattan. In the old wooden navy the names of Franklin, Adams and Marion are still preserved, along with Yantic, Alert and Nipsic. The Indien name is also rep- sented in this class by several vessels, which are the Mohican, the Mono- ¢acy and the Omaha. The double-turreted monitors have names Which are to be found nowhere in ship nomenclature except in the United States navy. Among them are the Amphitrite, the Miantonomoh and the Monadnock. The Vicksburg ard the Annapolis are compos- ite gunboats, and are named after places where important military operations took e. No set rule seems to obtain for the naming of gunboats. The list includes the Petrel, the Machias, the Nashville, the Helena, the Concord, the Bancroft and the Bennington.

From the Kansas City Star. Mrs. William Armstrong Davison, now in her eighty-fifth year, lives in Jefferson City. She was a conspicuous woman in the soci- ety of Washington in the times of Clay, Webster and others who made history. Of Webster she says: “He was the most unusual looking man I ever saw, his dark skin and beetling brows having earned for him the cognomen of ‘Black Dan.” In man- ner and dress he was most scrupulous. His coat, modeled on the Byronic lines of the times, was blue in color, ornamented with brass buttons. He was a noticeable figure anywhere. I was not surprised, when aft- erward I heard his speeches in the Senate chamber—where six years before he had made himself famous in his celeprated re- ply to Hayne of South Carolina—with his wonderful gift of oratory and a voice pon- derous in volume. I became personally conscious of that feeling of awe which caused his opponents to consider him in oratorical combat one of the most formid- able of adversaries. “During one of my visits to“the Senate Mrs. Linn and I were being ushered to the whig side of the house when we saw ap- PERRY’S.

The Vice President's figure was small and weazened. His whole appeara 1_as his char- acter justified his sobriquet, ‘Fox.’ He was = widower and much given to ladies’ soci- ety.” y Asked about the dress of that time, Mrs. Davison replied: “Our dresses were nearly all made alike— that was one s: ction. For evening wear light-colored silks, cut short-waisted, with sleeves of large puffs, in which we frequently wore pillows, to give them the requisite size. Our skirts cleared the floor about six inches, and we wore whit- silk stockings and satin slippers. For day wear our gowns were of dark silks, decollete, with detac long sleeves to slip under the puffs. Over the shoulders we wore a cape of the silk, and we substituted black stockings and slippers for the white ones, One of my bonnets was a coal scuttle shape of cream velvet, surmotnted by high-stand- ing white plumes. The men wore colored coats with brass buttons, fanciful waist- coats, and soft white Byron collars, with black silk stocks.” Every one of Mrs. Davison’s children, of whom she has eight living (her hore is with the eldest, Dr. A. C. Davison), and nearly every one among her grandchildren has some trophy of those bygone days. Brocades, laces, berthas, old fans, a cable chain of gold with monocle attached, her wedding gown waist; in which her grand- daughter and namesake has been photo- graphed, a garnet and turquoise bead reti- cule, which she bestowed upon me—all are preserved with great pride and care. oe What “Gees” on the Yukon.

ROBERT EMME?’S BIRTHDAY The exercises in celebration of the cen- tennial anniversary of the last great strug- gle made by the people .of Ireland to se- cure their emancipation from English rule begen last Sunday,. which was the an- niversary of the birth, of Robert. Emmet. They will continue at intervals throughout the entire English-speaking world during the next four months. The services in memory of Emmet took place under the auspices of the Ancient Order of Hiber- rians. : It is expected that pigrimages to the old battlefields will he,made and monu- ments erected on many of them by Irish- men from America, Europe and Australia. Preparations for this event began seven- teen years ago in Boston and New York. The centennial dates proper are from the 12th of March, when the leaders of the revolution were imprisoned in Dublin, to the 2ist and 22d of June, when the last and most disastrous battle was fought at Vinegar Hill. The revolution of 1798 is ene in which a vast number of Americans sympathized. The uprising followed close on the heels of our own war for indépend- ence, and it is believed the success of. the Americans was a powerful agent in pre- cipitating the Irish effort. ‘The preliminary steps to the organization of this uprising began In 1791, when three patriots—Wolfe Tone, son and Me- Cracken—standing on Cave Hill at Belfast, took an oath to free Ireland or die. It but a short e the British te the Zz m the course of a comp: short time nurabered 100,000 membe: 23d of May was fixed upon for a ris throughout Ireland. The British govern- ment, however, became aware of the move- ment, and Dublin, upon which much had been counted, was placed under martial law and the leaders of the intended rebel- Kon arrested. ‘Thi i as, there- fore, only partial, counties of Kildare, ford, though there tempts at Carlow: and Me The people were, however, almost without arms, dis- cipline, plan or leaders, Defent at Tara, Three days later a body of 4,000 rev tionisis was defeated at: Tara. The next day an uprising cccurred in Wexford. Here the revolution assumed a religious charac- ter, which it had pot shown elsewhere. After a number of- small battles there transpired at Arkiow, June 9, a contest on which the revolution-ttrned. Nearly 30,000 men armed with piles and 5,000 with mus- kets, supported by game: artillery, advanc- ed against the British, but they were de- feated. The revolytiggists then took up their military position at Vinegar Hill, where they eH the 2ist of June by the Br ro bad ta be practic hilat ‘The most romanti® p) tion were two expeditions from Francé set fut to aid the frish forces. The first one, which Wolfe Woné had gone from America to Paris to-organize, sailed from Brest harbor, France, December 16, 1796. It Was under commandof) the French general Hoche. It had fortyethree vessels and 15,000. veteran soldiers; But a gale came up apd separated the commanding generi’s ship from the St of thesfleet.. Groubty, who, by his tardiness, lost Waterloo for Napoleon, was. second in command. He reached Bantry bay with a’portion of the fleet, but hesitated to disembark without the presence of his commanding general. Another gale came up and the remainder of the fleet was scattered and driven far out,to sea., The remnant of ‘the expedi, tion put back to Frange. : Humbert’s Expediti: The next il tarred French naval expe- tion was got together by the indefatigable Wolfe Tone two y 65 late This. was known as Humber expedition. It -sailed from La Rouchelle Aug 4. There were three frigates, with a fighting force of only 1,100 men, but a large.stand of arms was taken in anticipation of arming the: Irish peasantry. A landing was made at Killala, and for three weeks the invader held his own a difficulty, defeating sev- “ral 3 ficld, on Jeulation being seven or ei perior in numbers, gaptured an entire ed to 0 ing a we match. that time penetrated 1 terior of the country. de- An unfortunate lay of a few hours prevented their june- tion with a large body of Irish insurgents.

Woife Tone, who was among the officers taken, was apprehended as a traitor, He tried by court-martial and condemned to death by hanging, being refused a sol- dier’s more honorable death by shooting. He managed, however, to open a vein in his neck and before the ignominious death of the gallows could be inflicted he had passed away in his cell. He was buried at Bordentown, near Dublin, and to that place, as to a shrine, thousands upon thou- sands of the devoted Irish patriots will go this year, as the Mohammedans do to Mecca. Robert Emmet Executed. Robert Emmet, another hero of the revo- lution of "98, was executed in Dublin in September, 180%, for treason-felony. Em- met did not despair after the failure of the great rebellion of 1798, but, gathering around him the remnant of the revolution- ists, he laid skillful plans for the overthrow of the British rule in Ireland. He relied on the of France to accomplish his ends, and but for the failure of the French directory to make good its pledges of sup- port it is generally conceded that Emmi would have undoubtedly suc attempt to end English oppress! la At last, drivewito despair, he lead a “forlorn-hope” revoltand grappled with the English forces on sheyistreets of Dublin. After the defeat which followed he had a chance to escape to, Frgpee, but returned to Dublin to say farewell to his betrothed, a daughter of the famés orator, Curran. While making this fast ovisit he was cap- tured by the English, sgkgiers and tried for his life. Sentenced to death by Lord Nor- bury, he was hanged, drawn and quartered on Thomas street, “Dublin, the following day. ray His Blood/Sacred. After the so'diers “‘miirched away the women and children and old men crept to the blood-stained spot where the horrible tragedy was enactt{“and sieeped their handkerchiefs in the Bf6éi of Emmet, bear- ing home the grimi-tefics. The people, whose idol he was, ptéserved his clothes, and many of his garnients are yet held sacred in the homes ¢f Dublin people today. A large iron cross marks the place where he was executed, and never a public proces- sion or parade occurs'in Dublin that the marchers do sot uncover their heads when passing the hallowed spot. This year, when the gathering of the exiled Irishmen shall take place in Dublin in honor of the heroes of “*08,” the place where Emmet’s life blood was peured out will be the scene of a pub- lic meeting, which wtll probably go down into history as the greatest event in the history of the Irish race. The seal worn by the pope, and used by him on official documents’ to which his sig- nature is attached, has on it the engraving of a fish, with the cipher of the wearer. Since the thirteenth’ century every pope has wown a ring of this character, and it is shattered with a hammer when the ‘wearer dies, to prevent its use on a forged document.
