E. Lee Confederate teraas, was held last night to make gements for the trip to Richmond, fhe camp will go on the 4:45 train on the morning of the 30th, returning the tno evening. The fare for the round trip is I The Steamer Howard Cassard, which left the Columbian Irou Works, Baltimore, at o'clock yesterday morn? ing in tow of the tug Juno, will reach this city this evening and he moored at the dock oi the Haskiu Vulcanizing Company. The Cassard is tho out? growth or rather the miuiature of the. Pocahotas, which was to have been buill in this city in 1SS7, but owing to some difficulties the scheme had to he abandoned.

The Cassard was launch? ed November 1891. She was built according to tbe patented plans of Robert M. Fryer by the Monumental Construction Company, of Baltimore, under license from the Arrow Steam? ship Company, of New York. The Cassard is 222 feet ia length, over all; 206 feet in length, between perpendicu? lars; feet extreme beam, and 18 feet inches depth of hold. Tho engine in the steamer was designed by Mr.

Fryer, ami is specially characterized by I the non-exposure of any portion there? of above the water-line, being confined entirely between decks. When tho engine had been finished several trips were made, and the feasibility of style was established, the Cassard having ma le a record of eighteen miles an hour. The officials of the company state licit the Cassard was transferred, for the present, to this city, for the rea? son that more than satisfactory ar? rangements have been made with Mr. Park Agnew, and for tbe additional reason that, the enterprise having been begun here in tbe starting of the Poca hontat. her supporters considered it proper that the final steps toward a complete vindication of their claims should be taken here.

Mr. Fryer and several steamboat men from Baltimore and Washington are in the city await? ing the arrival of the Cassard. A handsome model of her engine is now at the shipyard ou exhibition. Circuit Court for the Judge Jainen Keith Lane vs. Mary E.
