Now be it known, that although outmarines were drilled every day, ihe marine officer gave orders in such a rapid inner, that to me they never conveyed the least meaning, as they every one sounded alike, rip—rap. The marines also slapped their muskets around in so unaccountftble a manner, that I never could understand how they got them where they did. The time arrived, and I was called on deck toe xercise about forty old broken down seamen, landsmen and boys'—-each had his musket,cartouch box, belt and bayonet. The master ordered me to get them in line, and 1 sung out for the division to form they looked at me in utter astonish* monk—not a man stirred, and 1 thought that as no one understood it, my orders must have been very military. *You captain of the afterguard lay aft to the fourth cannonade on the quai tcr deck clap our toes to the third seam from the gun slide, steady so. Now men, lay aft next to him, and make line straight fore and aft,eve ry man's toes to the seam.1 In the length of a scam on a ships deck sufficient to form a line of forty, there is a very considerable curve, and, consequently, when my men were formed, they oid net cxactly answer the mathematical definition of a straight line,'the shortest between two given points/ 'Better make your men place their heels together, and keep their toes a little apart,' whispered the marine officer. Ay, ay, Mr, Now men square your heels by the lifts and braces, and stickyotir toes out to atarbord and port, like the legs a bowline bridle, steady so, belay all.1

Up went the pip€ of a boatswains irate, and the shril! prolonged ^ejay, like the continued note of a canary bird, started the whole marine corps and all the officers, an a nine knot laugh. 1 (old the boatswain's mate that if he cot ap such a dido Again.

In the first place, it puts out a kind of artificial'hands, with which it is provided, and loads itself with passengers, trunks, valises, and other bag4agS."" As soon as it has done this, atli |ivcn signal, it mounts through a comnidn opening, to the several storieS—stopping ifegularly at each one, in order to leave Mich passengers or bagg.iges as happen to occupy tooins in that story. And so it proceeds until it has reached the top, when it begins to descend, stopping in like manMr to carry down such passengers, with their baggaee, as wish to descend.

dies lodged as low down as ry, and some even as low as the fifth. But this was rather a matter of necessity on account ofthe crowded state of the house and very few persons of decided gentility, would choose to lodge below the seventh storv.

The dining room, which is three hundred and seventy feet long, and fifty four svitle, is situated in the sixth story, so as to accommodate equally, those who room below and those who room above. Six tables aie ordinarily set from one end of this vast dining room to the other. But 1 cannot abide the American custom of so many persons eating together. It is bnrbarousin tho extreme. Nav. more, is indelicate. What can be more so, 1 would ask, than for two or three hundred persons of both sexes, to sit ranged along opposite to one another so that they cannot help peeping into each other's uths? It is a very disagreeable exposure of one's internal, iflfairs. But it is not to be wondered at in this country, for really these repuhli? cans have ne idea whatever of anything, except getting money, talking politics,and boasting of their owu superiority. In one respect, however, I must own that they have the advantage, for they play knife and fork with such dexterity, and keep their mouths so constantly crammed with food, that there is very little chance of ever seeing into their mouths, however much (in Knglislimaiimight.be exposed under the like circumstances.
