6 THE MAKIME RECORD. THfl NAUTICAL SCHOOL SHIP. Spxiat Oorwpondenci o/rta Jtfartnt JZeonf Nrw YonK, August ^5. The nautical auhonl ship St. Mnry'u tins arrived hero ngnln niter her ragtiliir ntinunl summer cruise to tho Medlterrnuenn, nnd will Mo In the Enst river, nt the foot of 26th ' street, during Uiu winter, trnlnlug boys to bo senmen. This ship In a vessel of the hhvv, and Is undtrthc chnrge of the boilrd of edu tion, nnd espCclnlly encouraged mid pntron lzed by tli<j Chmjiberof Cn'mmeieef She Is under the commnnd of Lleiitemint Edwin M, Shepnrd, nnd her ofllccrs lire nnViil men. To be eligible loi mlmlmlon the bojs should bent least Unci n } ears of\nge npd must pnss it rigid physlcnl exumlimllon to determine their fitness tor the hnrdnhlps of n snllor<s life. The consent of parents or giinrdlnn must In every ensu accompany an applica¬ tion made by the yoiithlulcnndldnte, direct¬ ed to the chilli niiin of thecxeeiitlve'coninilt- tec on nautical schools, of the board ol etln- tlon, 140 GiiumI street, New York. Boys who are residents ol tills ully, If they ciiii rend, write, nnd lepent the inultlpllca'ioii table, find no dllllenlty In shipping. After adnils s|pn tliey receive the uwap prrtctlt ill Instruc¬ tion In seamanship, and, beside, a fail ele montnry English education. The discipline is very strbt, and they have to-go through a great deal ol hardship and labor at times, but If they peisevere, the course ol training will, In their two years expeiience before the mast, fit them for responsible and lucra¬ tive positions abaft the must in the merchant service, v hich so badly needs American sea¬ men. And there are at present ftjw better openings for a boy of pluck and energy, « ho wishes to obtain a place of honor and prollt for him self. A veiy considerable number ofUhe former graduates of the school ship St. Mary's are now actiug as mates, both on steamships nnd sailing vessels, and there Is plenty of room for many more.. A steady and sober lad, who goes through the course of schooling and training on the St. Mary's finds it easy to obtain employment at sea, and if he.Is bright he will not have to wall long for promotion. But unless a youth has a strong predilection for sea. life, and unless he Is pretty well fortified against temptation, nnd equal to hard work, and full of courage to fnce dnngeramhemlure^xposurerhrhnd better stay nt home. Re must be able and willing tosubmlt to severe discipline, pu't up with rough fare and to do everything re¬ quired of n sailor without shirking. Hence, Jt is unwise and cruel to send there an) except a boy who la ndapted to the Hie nnd the work. Only the sons of residents of New York are admitted to the St. Mary's, it being port of the city public school system, but there are, however, training ships be¬ longing to the navy,which nrealwajs reach- to take good bojs from nnyr part of the United States.
