yrom the A. Y. Time.
One of tho most rcinnrknlilo features of
aiodern Ktenm navigation is tho general tmlj
litittition of the screw for tho paddle. In
deed, the screw Kteanmr 1mm nearly driven its
rivals from (ho stormy Atlantic, where tho
niorits of submerged propellers and hoavy
ppars are most inanifi'st, and is fast chasing
lhem from more piioilic waters tho world over.
Tho lVrsia. which txit fourteen years ago was
Considered tho perfection of naval architect
ure, was last year sold for XL V)() to ho
changed from paddle to screw. Just as tho
L'uuarders wero experimenting with their first
Screws, tho new French lino to this country
was started with paddlo ships. Ouo of them,
ihe Washington, which formerly steamed ton
miles nn hour with !( tons of coal per day,
Las since been lit ted with screws and now
.steams 11 -H miles with MH tons of coal, and
tho new ships of nil Atlantic lines aro invari
ftbly propelled by screws.
Tho greater economy of tho screw ship
Withagiwu speed and load, or her great or
speed with tho samo fuel, are not duo en
tirely to tho fact that tho efficiency of her
tiropellers as compared with that o paddlo
wheels is less impaired by the rolling of the
vessel not entirely to the fact that tho
screw steamer, by reason of the submersion
of her propeller, and its independence of tho
rolling of tho ship, can carry more canvas
and can sail on her beam ends as well as on
an even keel, as far ns applying the engine
iiower is concerned. Nor does the superiority
of the screw ship lie entirely in her greater
capacity for stowage, by reason of the greater
c ompactness of her engines, nor yet m the
improvement of her machinery for generating,
Superheating, distributing, and condensing
Steam, since all these may apply equally to
tho paddlo steamer.
One of the notable dill'erences between the
tiew practice and the old, both in ships and
locomotives, is the hbjh ied ' juxhrn
adopted in modem engines. The paddlo
engine is a great lumbering, heavy machine,
moving at the moderate spued suited to the
paddle-wheel. The screw engine is compact,
light, and lively, and it pull the. fn.W: tr!.r
demanded bv the screw. A horse power is
;;;!,0(l pounds lifted olio foot in a minute, or
one pound lilted : 1,1 ft'1-' in a minute.
Now, tho paddle-steamer principle carried to
excess would illustrate this law by ".','".'
around the :;.!,(mh pound weight, and lifting
it a foot, while the screw steamer would be
burdened only wi;h tho one pound, which it
would lift :i:;,(MM feet. The total power is
the same, but while, in the one instance, a
largo percentage of it is neutralized in carry
ing itself in carrying the cumbrous enginery
by which its great force works through a
small space, in tho other instance,
the enginery is small and light, because it has
only to transfer a small force through a great
Space, and speed does not weigh anything.
There are many illustrations of this law in
practice. Tho old stylo of locomotives with
immense driving wheels, big cylinders, aud
ponderous parts, has given place to light
moving parts, small drivers, and quick stroke.
A small cotton cord running at sixty miles
an hour through a machine shop does the
work of numbrouti cranes crawling a few feet
a minute.
This engineering law and these illustra
tions establish the correctness of tho quick
stroke adopted by the Harvard oarsmen as
compared with tho long, slow, beam-engino
stroke of their opponents. Speed is an ele
ment of power that weighs nothing. If some
element that is ponderous is substituted for
it, a part of tho total power is lost in tho
machine itself.
The Herald, in a late article on tho inter
national race, propounds a mechanical theory
of tho quick stroke, which we commend to
the consideration of learned bodies. Says
ihe Herald:
"Tlie oflencr the oar falls Into the water with a
pull the faster wiii Ihe boat lie propelled. It is on
this principle that, the blades of the steamboat wheel
have been multiplied, and placed six inches apart,
instead of three leet, as formerly."
Although this illustration does not apply to
tho case in hand, it is very correct, except
that, ns a matter of fact and practice, tho
lloats of steamboat wheels are placed four to
six feet apart instead of six inches, because,
if placed at six inches the slip would bo ex
cessive tho wheel would roll in the water
like a barrel without taking hold, and the
vessel would hardly move at all. We hope
the Karvards' practico will noL illustrate tho
Herald's theory.
miNCE ARTHUR IN CANADA.
from the A'. Y. MWM.
Thn reception given to tho third living
scion of tho House of Brunswick in the colo
nial possessions of his mother, do not seom
to bear out the notion which tho Canadian
press and tho Canadian orators are so anxious
to inculcate into tho American mind of tho
boundless and exuberant loyalty which flour
ishes as scarcely any other growth does among
those singular populations.
It is the more extraordinary that this royal
youth should not have been wept and slob
bered over far more profusely than ho has
hitherto been, since Canada has been crying
out ever since her erection into a dominion
for a viceroy if sho remained iu tho condition
of a dominion, or a king in case it suited the
metropolis aud the colony alike to make the
latter u kingdom. In ease her fervent
prayers in that behalf wero granted, there is
no more likely person to bo chosen the in
cumbent of her vice-regal or her regal throne
than the youth who now oilers himself to tho
Canadians for their immediate hospitalities
and possibly their ultimate suffrages. Tho
I'rinco of Y ides, eldest hope of that hopeful
house, is, of course, predestined, lie lias a
previous engagement with a higher throno
than Canada cuii offer. It is almost equally
unlikely that tho Duke of Edinburgh could
be prevailed upon to accept any eolumal post,
or that the exigencies of the parent State, as
interpreted by Downing street, would allow
him to if ho could. J!ut rather than that
Canada should remain in her present acepha
lous condition, l'rince Arthur probably could
and would bo spared to her. 1'et his arrival
within her borders is not hailed with half
the enthusiasm which greeted cither of his
liwithers.
Tho present l'rince is, besides, a more re
futable votith. so far us is known to common
fame, lhnn either of his brothers If not native
goodness, tho ingenuousness of youth has for
bidden him to figure, liKe me i nuce oi vuies,
in the ehuructor of a person who "insists
upon playing cards for money, always exacts
what ho wins, and never pays what ho loses."
This description, bv the wav. of the English
potentate's manner of conducting a great gift
enterprise may furnish a hint to our Aine
licua potentate, who less wise or more
honest than his English analogue, who von- I itself? And even if the insurrection should
turos nothing does roally give the valua- be quelled, Spain would find herself incnin
ble consideration of seats in his Cabinet, bered with a devastated and impoverished
and other lucrative places of trust, in ex- ,
change for horses, houses, and cigars. Neithor
has l'rince Arthur attained to the fulness of
the stature of his mother's second son, tho
Duke of Edinburgh, of whom wo hoar, on mo
excellent authority of the Pall Mall Gazette,
that he has the "cheek" to send in bills to
Parliament, to tho extent of thirty-fivo hun
dred and odd pounds sterling, for tho presents
which ho dispensed during his sojourn in
Australia, Tho worst we hear of Prince
Arthur is thut once in Switzerland ho indulged
himself in tho rather indecorous, but not
grossly flagitious, pastime of taking shies at
the e'hi(iaiit, of a female fellow-being with
hailstones, and pleaded with his tutor for a
cojitinuanco of the sport on tho ground that
he had just got tho range. 15ut these indis
cretions of his salad days ought not to weigh
against him now, and it is not probable that
they do.
Tho fact is that princes aro no longer rari
ties to tho Canadian vision. Tho much ado
about a Prince of Wales was a tribute as much
to his novelty as his station or his aptitude
for tilling it; and so far as it may be supposed
that tho last consideration entered into it,
those who helped to make it havo subse
quently seen tho unwisdom of their course,
and refrain from any special fervor of demon
stration at the coming of a callow strippling
like Prince Arthur. They prefer waiting to
see whether or not ho will turn out to bo "a
thing to thank Clod on" or not. Tho Ameri
can temper is similar. If Prince- Arthur
chooses to come to us, it is not likely that we
shall bottlo tho water consecrated by use in
his sacred toilet, nor that tho floor of tho
Academy will trivo way under the crowd
which assembles at the Academy to give him
a ball.
THE niOPOSED LABOR PARTY.
From the X. Y. Suit.
That tho members of tho Labor Conven
tiou just held in Philadelphia, acted wisely
in tloclining to adopt tho proposition ot Mr.
Helper to form a political party based dis
tinctively on tho interests ot wokingmen
and opposed to those of capitalists, admits,
we think, of little doubt. Nothing but tho
exlremest necessity, such as would justify a
revolution, should induce the taking of such
a step. In a country like this, especially
where all tho avenues to wealth and honor
stand open to every one alike, it is as unwise
as it is wicked to attempt to foment dissen
sions and discord between employers and the
employed. Iheir political interests aro not
antagonistic, but identical, aud whichever
class seeks to legislate against the other, by
that very course injures itself. We trust that
the day is far distant when tho vorkingmen
of the United States will need to band to
gether in political array in order to obtain
tho rights to which they are lastly entitled,
and wo are quite sure that they will not un
dertake the task for any meaner object.
Tho assumption is constantly made in the
discussion of questions connected with tho
subject of labor, and too often yielded by tho
friends of tho workingmen, and even by the
workmgmen themsohes, that they do, in fact
occupy an inferior position in society. There
is a widespread notion the legacy of bygone
ages of ignorance and mistake that all labor
is a curse, and that kind ot labor most so o
all which deals with material substances. In
spite of our democratic talk, nine-tenths o
our people are fixed in tho belief that to live
iu idleness and havo somebody elso do tho
necessary work of the world is better than
to work oneself. Every man almost is
anxious to accumulate money enough to live
on tho income of it which means that other
people shall take and use tho property that he
will not and cannot use himself, and pay him
enough for his expenses and even his luxu
ries, besides returning to him or to his chil
dren the property itself intact. This idea
developed itself most fully in the Southern
States in negro slavery. White men there
were too proud and too lazy to handle a me
chanic's tools or the implements of husbandry,
but left all that sort of thing to their bond
slaves. Here at the North we had no slaves,
but we had and still have a great deal too
much of the slavish idea of work.
This false assumption the workingmen
must themselves aid in overthrowing by their
own efforts, lhey must not admit, or allow
any one to admit on their behalf, that they
deserve sympathy or compassion, or are in
any way objects of pity, because they earn
their living by the sweat of their brows. Tho
capitalist who employs them should in no
manner be dealt with or spoken of otherwise
than as an equal, and neither enviod nor
hated because he does not himself put his
hand to tho tasks they aro engaged in. Thut
they do not associate with him uud his family
...l i. i f .i
wuen men woik is none is no prooi oi social,
much less ot political inequality. Every
iimn has a right to choose his own company,
and it is proper for the mechanic
to take it for granted that his employer keeps
aloof from him as much from a sense of in
feriority or unworthiness, as for the contrary
reason. the tnno is rapidly approaching
wnen mere will be no ground lor even a sus
picion of contempt on either side on this ae
count, and when the question will not be
asked in social circles whether a man makes
goods or sells them, or whether his work deals
with bricks and wood and metal, or with pen
mm ion. aim paper; wnciner no comes
t : i i . i ,
from the workshop, the counting-room, tho
studio, tho sick room, or the court house
lint the advent of that time would be trrcatlv
retarded if workingmen were to array them
selves in a hostile altitude to the rest of the
body politic, and openly proclaim that they
were a caste by themselves. Their true course
is to break down and obliterate as much ns
possible tho distinction between themselves
and other men, and not make it permanent.
Let them show the nobility of soul which
they really possess by thei'r industry, their
virtue, and their patriotism, and they need
not trouble themselves with the fear that
they may be trodden under foot because they
cannot make and unmake tho fortunes of
political candidates.
SPAIN AND CI BA.
From the X. Y. Tribune.
"We have no fiivllicr information of special
value respecting (he rumored treaty for tlio
cession of Cuba, luit the French and English
papers discuss the project with so much
eagerness und such decided approval that wo
can hardly doubt Spanish ngeuts have been
manufacturing opinion favorable to this
short and easy nu thod of solving tho Cuban
problem. The authority of the mother coun
try has been so thoroughly undermined in
her chief colony that it would fall to pieces if
tho insurrection were only a little better orga
nized, and it must be clear even to Spanish
pride that the Spanish troops are losing
ground every day. What hope can they have
of reducing tho island to obedience when
they cannot even maintain a Captain-General
in security, and tho party which professes
allegiance to the mother country is auxious
to keep the government out of the hands of
(JueHuda ouly because it covets power for
island, no longer capable of yielding tho rich
iniMno it nun pimi iier in past years, nm com
ing, on me contrary, large sums for the sup
port of a military government. In this di
lemma wo can easily understand how trie
proposals said to have been made
through the nnoncv of Mr. Forbes
should be received with downright grati
tude. Tho chief points of tho scheme aro
mat culm siinll buy herself of Spam tor tlio
sum of $100,1 :)I),IMM in bonds guaranteed by
tho United States, we of course taking ft mort
gage upon tho sovereignty of tho island as
security. This bears a suspicious appearance
of annexation, but it saves Spain tho humi-
e ..r -i p . i . ,- i
inuiuu in couiesNiug ii ueteat, and relieves ner
distressed treasury of a very serious burden.
She will never get anything out of Cuba
again, except what sho may realize by tho
sale ot tier rights ot sovereignty, such as they
are; and her statesmen seem to be fully aware
that the longer they wait tho more unsalable
those rights will become. Whether tho bar
gain would be a good one, either for Cuba or
for us. is another matter altogether.
