Mr. T.\nS. Sinclair, the contractor for the\nmattresses, or bush dams, is hard at\nwork on the cribs which are building at Westminster. They are a\nvast improvement on those sunken\nlast year, which were built of old\nsnags and drift picked up around\nthe beach and required an enormous\namount of stone to sink them. The\nnew ones are very light timber and\nare consequently easy to sink,\nwhich will be a great saving, as\nstone for ballast is a most expensive\narticle to procure at that point.\nThe new cribs will be just as effective as though a hundred tons of\nstone were used, the object being\nonly to hold the brush in position\nlong enough for the bottom silt of\nof the river to collect in sufficient\nquantity to hold them. Then time\nand Father Fraser are all that are\nwanting to make the undertaking a\nsuccess. The results derived from\nlast year's work are gratifying, as\nthere is now even better water in\nthe channel than everbefore\u00E2\u0080\u0094not less\nthan 10 feet at dead low water\nspring tides, which, with the rise of\n10 feet in lido, gives a 30-foot channel over the bar on spring tides,\nwhich compares very favorably with\nmost nf the great commercial ports\nof the world. If the money expended in dredging in the Fraser\nlast year had been spent on this\nscheme Westminster would now\nhave had as good an avenue to the\nsea as the city of New Orleans had\ntwenty years ago when she was in\nthe heyday of her commercial glory.\nThe trouble seems, to be with the\nWestminster people there is a great\ndifference of opinion with regard to\nwhat is the most practical move to\nbe made to improve the Fraser.\nWith no one to advance any theory\nexcept people whose knowledge of\nsuch affairs is very limited, the\nauthorities seem to jump at any\nsuggestion offered, as will be seen in\nthe building of the light house on\nthe 8and4iead, which is neither use\nnor ornament to Westminster. The\nwriter well remembers when it was\nbuilding how jubilant the West\nminster people were over it, but\npractically a more decided failure\noould hot be conceived of. As the\nlight now stands it is no more than\na mile from the channel mouth,\nand equally as far from the outer\nedge of the sand hank, and as a\nguide to entering the Fraser is of no\nmore use than if it were situated at\nOhemainus. lt is nearly time the\npeople of Wcstminrter took this\nmatter in hand, and it would require but a slight expenditure to\nmake the light system of the Fraser\nsuoh that no diffiulty would be experienced in entering at any time,\nnight or day. Let the government\nmove the present light house to\nsome place where it would be of\naome use (lor instance, upper Sydney spit), then build a light ship, at\nabout one fourth the cost of the\nlight house, which could be shifted\nas (he channels shifts from time to\ntime. Then with the appliances\nthe government have at hand it\nwould be very easy to maintain a\nsystem of range lights on the sands.\nAn improved'lantern or fountain\nlamp k now made which burns four\nor five days, according to tbo capacity of the feed tank. With a lamp\nof this description placed ou a cluster (say four or live) of piles driven\nat all the points of the channel, one\nat No. 4 buoy, ono on the sand\nsouth of No. 7, another at any point\nin the present channel would do.\nShips could enter with esse at any\ntime. 'These lights could be kept in\norder by a keeper (who could visit\nthem each day in a small boat,\nwhen the weather would permit.\nShould stormy weather prevent, the\nlamps fitted with the fountain\nwould burn through it all. In the\nevent of the channel shifting at any\ntime, another cluster of piles can\ncan bo driven, und the lamps moved\nnt a trilling cost This is of vital\nimportance to Westminster. Only a\nshort time ago the writer was asked\nby a merchant from Ohina how\nheavy draught conld be taken up\nthe Froser, and when told expressed\ngreat surprise that the out side commercial world should know nothing\nof this. Go to any broker's office in\nany part of the world and nsk what\nkind of a place Westminster is tn\ngo towith a ship, and he will tell\nyou that it is up a creek where it\nis hard work to get p. scow. Little\ndoes ho know thut it is a city with\nindustries such as mills and canneries that should be known to the\nworld of commerce, and has a 20-foot\nchannel all the way to it.\"\nThe Yacht Race!\nLoin or Fog;, but Not Much wiad.-fbe\nThistle Vets Ue-caliucd, uud the Yolan*\nItirr Vcls Am uy Tram IIir.\u00C2\u00ABVlilory Tor\nHit' American Yacht.\nSpecial Dispatch.]\nFokt Waiwwohtii, Sopt. 27, 9:30\na. hi.\u00E2\u0080\u0094A heavy fog hangs over; objects a mile distant can't he recognised;\nthero is absolutely no wind; the sun ia\nmaking a feeble uttempt to penetrate\nthe fog; front present indications there\ncan be no race to-day.\n10:15 a. m.\u00E2\u0080\u0094There is apparently a\nlittle wind, but it is not worth mentioning.

TAIIii-i-IGIKJA^y.\nTI13 skill of the Japanese iu tattooing ia\nremarkable, and Dr. Baelz, a physician\nin the employ of the Japanese Government, has iroinrnriniirated a large number\nof curious and hitherto unknown facts regarding; tlio Strange ciutom of tattooing\naspriiirllned in Japan. As to its origin\nthere nothing very definite has been ascertained. It certainly in Japan has no\nreligiou.4 meaning or ceremonial attending it. Unlike some other peoples tlie\n.liipruicse uninlly tattoo those portions of\nthe holy wliic!i are covered by clothing,\nund yet it seems that the only pnrposo\nthe marks servo is that of personal adornment ; Among certain tribes oi other\nrniiiitiies the chiefs nnd persons of distinction are eliibrrrately tattooed; in Japan duly lire lower orders of society and\nvery rarely women undergo the jjmcess.\nA Jajiineae when ho desires to 1)3 tattooed goes to an artist with the design ho\nwishes tn have indelibly imitated nn Ids\nbody. The artist skel'irlics tlie design\nmora or less in full detail, as the circumstance, of the case may require, on tlie1\nskin of his patron. Theu.takiiigawrKidcn\ntool iu which Hue sewing needles lire\nlirnily fixed, the artist applies Indian ink\nor tl red color made from cinnabar to the\npoints of the needles, holds tho toot iu\nthe right hand, whicli rests on the- thumb\nof the lel'l hand, nnrl pr.ir'ccdg to puncture .tin skin with marvellous rapidity, .\njiausiug at intervals to hike on the needles\nn fresh supply of color. No blon I is\ndrawn except sometimes when a deep\nshade is rcriuisltc, or when going over tho\nelbows and knees. In a day a skilful\noperator-en ri irorupleto a picture ro'iniring\na few.'hundred tliousand puiictures, In a\nmanner surprising for its accuracy, and\nvaried and delicate degree of shading.\nWhen tlio work is finished the skin is\nbathed with warm water, which gives a\nslight pain to tlio patient, but brings out\nthe color with grant distinctness. The\nonly inconvenience experienced isnslight\nfeverish feeling, which soon passes away.\nThe liillooed parts are never irritable or\nsensitive, and there need be no cessation\nfrom usual work. At the end ot threo\ndays the skin scales off like bran from tho\niiii'uclnred surface, leaving the portions\nblue that had been treated with tlie Indian ink, and those red which had been\ntouched with the cinnabar.\nPeril, or Koirlcly ulrls.\n\"What are society's perils for young\nwomen?\" I just asked a \"society girl,\"\nand she said: \"In Washington, lack of\nmen.\" For girls this is true. There are\nplenty of men in Washington. Perhaps\nin no\"city in tite United States is society\nworth so much while as in Washington,\nbecause so many distinguished men\ngather there. In no party do you fail to\nsee groups, any ono member of which\nwould bo considered.worth making a\nfeast for in other cities. But tho distinguished raon of Washington scarcely\ncome to nn earlier period than their early\nmiddle life. They aro in Washington\nbecause they have already won more or\nless eminence. Thoy are past the uncertainty, the hesitancy, thu unrealilv ol\nlife, ami are bent on definite pursuits.\nTlie young men, the natural mates for\nthe girls, are in other cities and districts,\npracticing law, learning to edit newspapers, cantering over cuttle ranches,\npreaching sermons to young women and\nprobably making a poor fist of it, exploring mines, earning money, winning fame.\nHy and by they will como lo Washington,\nbut iu that day our girls will not bo girls\nany more, A very foiv of these young\nmen are in Washington, but very few,\nhardly enough to go around. Consequently a girl who goes into society on-\nciitnters tlie peril of not finding mnny\nstimulating minds among her younger\ncomrades.\nAnd there are perils of five o'clock teas\nruinous to digestion and always the peril\nof confounding tliu cakes ami candies of\nlife with its roast beef. \"Society\" is so\nfascinating tliat girls are In danger of forgetting that it is refreshment and rest,\nnot steady work, ' j\t\nThe question as to what disposition Is\nto bo made of the non-commissioned officers who have passed examinations for\nsecond lieutenancies in the Army, will bo\nsettled by General Sheridan upon his return to Washington. No certificates\nhave yet been furnished the successful\ncandidates for this year, tor the oft repeated reason that in the absence of vacancies, existing and prospective, the officials have been unable to decide upon\nwh it action to take in the matter. It\nwas the purpose some time ago to order\nthe candidates beforo.the Fort Monroe\nBoard and, after a class standing had\nheen established, give them certificates\nus usual; bnt as.there is no possible\nchance now of any of them'getting commissions during the time allotted by the\nregulations, it is considered by the majority of the officials useless forthe Government to undergo the expense incident to the examination.\nThe following is an abstract of the bids\nreceived at the Navy Department, July\n30, for the purchase of condemned vessels : Samuel P.

If such prove to be tho-case it\nwill be the boiler that will be found to\nlie the weak plnco, and Indeed the fact is\npretty generally acknowledged. The\nlocomotive type of boiler is an adaptation\nof an apparatus designed for entirely differ .mt purjroses, and it is perhaps not al-\ntogelher.to bo wondered at that it should\nnot quite fill the situation. Almost the\nfirst time that a number of torpedo boats\nhave been simultaneously pressed to\ntheir utmost two boilers have given out\niu a must-disastrous manner.\nTm Secretary ol tho Navy has about\ndecided to send Ensign Georgo W.

It is understood that Knslgn Streot will receive an\nappointment as Assistant Naval Constructor after his first year of foreign\nstudy, lt ia said to be ihe intention of\nthe Secretary to send a number ol engineer officers abroad for advanced instruction In the art of designing machinery.\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0ii' \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 ) '.i .\u00E2\u0080\u0094est\nStory of Hncoulnr.\nA correspondent of the Critic relates\nthe following story of Macauluy : \u00E2\u0080\u0094\n\"When I was in London in the fifties,\namong my haunts was mi old, low-ceiled\ntavern, with a sanded floor two feet he-\nlow the level of the side walk, I used to\ngo thero and drink \"all and 'aU' One\nduy, while I was sitting beside a table, n\nlarge mnn in tl cloak entered, His face\nwus round, pale, and heavy but the eyes\nwero bright, and bis busby eyebrows slid\nup and down with quick changes oi expression.

Suddenly, he\nreached for his empty gloss and hurled it\non llie floor with all hla stiengih, smashing it into shivers. He sat for a minute\nlunger, then got up slowly, 'tipped' tho\nwaiter, paid his reckoning at the Imr, and\nmisseil out.

The olilclal report of this fact\nwas made on July 20, but, owing to the\nnon-arrival of coal for the purpose, no\nfurther steps have been taken looking\nto this end since the above mentioned date.

The Department is not\nlikely to experience any difficulty in finding officers for the Chicago, the request\nbook being already full to overflowing\nwith names of would-be cruisers on this\nvessel.
