Bower and sheet anchors are to be alike in weight, the weight of an anchor or kedge, as marked on it, being inclusive of the bending-shackle and stock. 2. vStream anchors, in all cases, when allowed, arc to be about one-fourth the weight of the bower. 3. Kedges, when four are allowed, are to be, respectively, about one-seventh, one-eighth, one-tenth, and one-fourteenth the weight of the bower ; when three are allowed, one-sixth, one-eighth, and one-tenth ; when two are allowed, one-sixth and one-tenth ; and when one is allowed, one-eighth. 4. To determine the weight of a bower or sheet anchor for a vessel, multiply her displace- ment in tons by the number assigned to her approximate displacement in the following table, in the column headed "Multipliers," and the product will express the number of pounds, inclusive of stock. 5. Each boat of every vessel is allowed one anchor ; the weight in pounds to be obtained by multiplying the square of the extreme breadth by 1.2. Tahi.e I. — Anchors ami kcdsres. Size of vessel.

Length of rigging of all kinds is to be determined by an accurate draft of the vessel to be rigged. For sizes, see tables following. All standing rigging to be 6-stranded, shroud-laid, galvanized-wire rope ; to be wormed, parceled, and served from end to end as a protection against wear and tear, except stays on which sail is carried; to be setup with rigging-screws except topmast rigging, which is to be set up with laniards — upper dead-eyes to be strapped with iron and have a galvanized-iron scored heart (Walton's) at the upper part of the strap. Topmast rigging of fore-and-aft- rigged vessels may be set up on end. Futtock shrouds are to be made of iron rods set up with turn-buckles to the mast, and shackled to top plate. • • .: ■ LOWER RIGGING. , . . " ! '' Wire rope for standing rigging is to be thoroughly protected from air and water by paint- ing it with red lead mixed with boiled linseed oil, wormed, parceled with cotton sheeting (which should be painted when on), then served the entire length. Get the rope on a stretch and measure off the extreme length of each pair of shrouds from the draft. The middle of the length thus determined will be the center of the eye ; paint, worm, parcel, paint again, and serve throughout. Then measure off from the center of eye on each leg of a pair of shrouds the required distance, or place, for the eye-seizing. The eye and both legs to two feet below the eye-seizing should be double-served, first parceling with tarred flax, parceling and serving with round-line. Then over this double service, to a distance of one foot below the place marked for the eye-seizing, put on the heading, which consists of tarred flax canvas, marled on with spun-yarn, the marling hitches to be on top. In putting on this heading, commence on each leg below the place marked for the eye-seizing and work towards the center of the eye. When this is done, form the eye and put on the seizing, which ig to be covered with tarred flax canvas securely marled on. After the shroud is let down and the eye formed, cut it to the length marked, and so continue until the rigging is all fitted for' each mast. The shroud is then ready for turning in. To determine the place for eye-seizings, of No. I pair of shrouds, measure off from the center of the eye two and one-half squares of the mast-head on each leg, and mark it for the upper turn of the seizing. The place of seiz- ing for No. 2 to be the same distance,////.? the diameter of the shroud; for No. 3 the same dis- tance, />/us twice the diameter, and so on for the others. Both legs of Nos. i and 2 will be leathered in the wake of the yard to take the chafe of the lower yards when braced up. When the rope is first got on a stretch and the first pair of shrouds is measured off, continue the fitting as far beyond the cut-mark (on the legs of the second pair) as the stretch will admit of. When there is an odd shroud in the fore and main rigging it should be the after shroud ; the eye spliced the same length the heading would be, and seized above the crotch of the splice, making the eye the same as if it were a pair of shrouds, and fitted the same as Nos. 3 and 4. If there is an odd shroud in the mizzen rigging it is to be fitted straight (one leg on the starboard and the other on the port side) and spanned with the pendant, forming the mast-head, and should be put over the mast-head first, the same as the pendants are put over the fore or main mast-head. TOPMAST RIGGING Is to be fitted in the manner known as "sirai'gAi," with one eye formed out of two pairs of shrouds, which gives two lifts or thicknesses on the mast-head, with four shrouds on each side, making a snug and neat mast-head. It should be painted, wormed, parceled, painted again, and served the entire length. The shrouds will be double served from center of eye to three or four feet below the futtock-staff. The length of heading from center of eye down to one foot below the eye-seizing is put on the same as the lower rigging. Catharpins are to be of wire rope, wormed, painted, and parceled, and double served throughout ; to be fitted with eyes in each end, and should go abaft the mast and seize together in the center. 19 The topmast-head (Burton) pendants will be wire rope, fitted the same as lower pendants. Each top-mast has four pendants, two forward and two abaft the rigging. The lower ends of pendants to hang six inches below the catharpin-legs. Pendants to be fitted the same as topmast rigging, without double service, except around their thimbles. Sword mats will be substituted for double service on the swifters of lower and topmast rigging. TOPGALLANT RIGGING Is to be painted, wormed, parceled, painted again, and served the entire length ; to go over the funnel on the mast-head. To be fitted in pairs, with eyes formed like the eyes of lower rigging, and seized so as to fit snug over the funnel. The forward legs to be double served from the center of eye to one foot below the futtock- staff of topmast rigging ; the after leg to be double served from center of eye, three feet down ; then from a point one foot above cross-trees to one foot below the futtock-staff ; both legs to be leathered in the wake of cross-trees, and to set up in the top with dead-eyes. FORE AND MAIN STAYS. Are to be fitted separate, with split collars and lashing-eyes, painted, wormed, parceled, painted again, and served the entire length. Double service on ends of fore-stays, commencing from lower part of the end, quarter-seizing around the thimble and up eight feet on the standing parts. Main stays, double service around the thimbles, up to lower part of quarter-seizings, on the end and standing parts. The lashing-eyes to be double served before splicing, which does away with outside parceling and hitching. Collars to be seized together in the loft and leathered down to four feet below the crotch. To be set up with rigging-screws. Lower end of stay to be spliced around thimble where sail is carried. Chains may be substituted for wire on the main, in the wake of the smoke-stack, when needed. MIZZEN STAYS. Single service throughoiit ; collars to be fitted the same as fore and main ; double service around the thimble. Lower end to be set up with rigging-screws. rORE-TOPMAST STAYS Are to be single; to be set up with rigging-screws; lower end fitted same as lower stay. MAIN-TOPMAST STAYS. Fitted the same as the fore-topmast stays; in long ships, with great distances between fore and main masts, they may be brought directly to the deck near the foremast ; but in short ships they will pass through chocks between fore trestle-trees, and set up on deck with rigging- screws. Nips to be double served and leathered; collars seized together in the loft. MIZZEN-TOPMAST STAYS. Fitted the same as main-topmast stays, and set up in the main-top with three-scored hearts. FORE-TOPGALLANT STAYS. . Painted, wormed, parceled, painted again, and served the entire length ; to be double served on the eyes around the funnels, and from twelve feet above to one foot below the jib-boom; also in the wake of the nip of the clamp on the dolphin-striker, and where they reeve through the bees. All nips to be leathered. Stays to be set up with rigging-screws, lower end spliced around thimble. 20 MAIN-TOPOALLANT STAYS. To be fitted the same as the fore, and set up with dead-eyes in the fore-top. To be double served and leathered at the hole in the fore-cap through which they lead; also to be leathered about three feet below the crotch of the eye-splice. MIZZEN-TOPGAI.I.ANT STAYS. Fitted, served, leathered, and led in the same manner as the main, and set up in the main-top. FORE AND MAIN TOPMAST BACKSTAYS. Fitted and measured off the same as the after-shrouds of the fore and main rigging. MIZZEN-TOPMAST BACKSTAYS Are fitted with horseshoe eyes. FORE, MAIN, AND MIZZEN TOPGALLANT BACKSTAYS. To be painted, wormed, parceled, painted again, and served throughout. Fitted with spliced eyes, which are double served, without outside parceling. BOAT-DAVIT TOPPING-LIFTS, SPANS, AND GUYS. To be of wire rope, and served throughout. Spans to which topping-lift pendants are attached to be leathered in the middle. Topping-lifts not to be served. RULE For finding the size of the fore and main shrouds, based on the area, in square feet, of the mainsail, topsail, and topgallant sail. Rankin, in his work, gives a rule for finding the direct pressure of wind, in pounds, on the sails — that is, when it strikes them at right angles, as follows: "Divide the square of the velocity of the wind in knots by 150 for the direct impulse on a flat surface in pounds on the square foot." Assuming the velocity of wind in a storm to be 53 miles per hour, and applying this rule of Rankin, the pressure on the sails will be found to be 19 pounds per square foot of surface. Bracing the lower yards at an angle of 35° with the keel, the wind strikes the sails at an angle of 55°. A simple calculation shows that at this angle the pressure is reduced to 15.6 pounds per square foot. Therefore, multiply the area of these sails by 15.6 and the actual angular force exerted will be the result; and this will be the support in pounds required for the mast. Now find the angle of support, or the angle which the shrouds make with the mast. A convenient method is to take a line from a lower dead-eye abreast the mast and carry it to the center of the mast horizontally, so as to form a right-angle with it, and measure its length in feet. Then measure from this point on the mast the distance to the upper side of the trestle-trees. Now divide the length of the line taken from the dead-eye by the above measurement on the mast, and the result will be the tangent of the angle of sup- port. Then to the log. cosec. of the angle of support add the log. of the angular force, and the result will be thepower of support required in ^ounA^ for that angle; but for greater secur- ity add one-half of this amount to it, and the result will be the total power of support desired. Divide the total power of support thus obtained by the number of shrouds proposed for one side; the quotient will be the breaking-strain of a single shroud, which seek in the table of strength for the required size. In fore and aft rigged vessels, the sail area used in the computation will be that of the mainsail and main gaff-topsail. This rule involves the same principles as those of Rear-Admiral T. O. Selfridge, adopted and used by him in the preparation of the allowance tables for 1870. 21 STANDING AND RUNNING RIGGING. To determine the size of a piece of standing or running rigging. The size of the fore or main shroud havinjj been determined for hemp, or wire of equivalent strength, from Table VII, use the decimal in the following table corresponding to the rope required by a multiplier. If wire be required, the circumference of the fore or main shroud in iron wire will be the unit used ; if hemp or manila, the same circumference in hemp will be the unit, and the product will be the size of the rope required, in terms of the unit employed. Examples. Size of fore or main shroud (wire) 5 inches. Decimal assigned for fore top-mast stay 90 For size of stay required 4.50 inches. Size of fore or main shroud (hemp) 10.75 inches. Decimal assigned for fore top-sail halliards 38 8600 3225 For size of fore top-sail halliards 4.0850 inches. 22 Standing and running rigging.

Mess and state-room furniture for commanding officers of fleets, squadrons, and ves- sels; state-room furniture for other officers; furniture for apartments of vessels, and mess and cooking-utensils will be supplied by the Bureau of Equipment and Recruiting, as specified in the annexed list. 2. These outfits of cabin and state-room furniture, china, etc., will be furnished only to cruising vessels. It is considered that the supply is sufficient for a cruise of three years, and no article shall be replaced or renewed at the expense of the Government during that period on any contingency whatever. 3. Articles of china, including state-room crockery, will be designated by a monogram in gold for commanding officers of squadrons, and by a monogram in blue for commanding officers of vessels. State-room crockery for other officers will not be marked. All plated ware will be marked with a monogram, U. S. N. 4. Each set of china, glass, and plated ware furnished to commanders-in-chief and com- manders of vessels will be packed in suitable packing-cases, and marked with the distinguish- ing number of the set contained therein. Each article of the set will be also marked with the same number. In future each set will be known by its number. At the expiration of a three years' cruise each set will be returned to navy yard, New York, where it will be sur- veyed, the missing articles supplied, and the set made ready for re-issue. 5. All mattresses will be marked for the state-rooms for which they are intended, and with their weight, locality, and date of manufacture. Carpets are to be procured in strict accordance as to quality with the standard samples. The prices fixed are per running yard, including all expenses of making, laying, and furnishing lining, as well as loss in matching. Care is to be exercised to ascertain the actual number of running yards necessary to be used. No pattern is to be selected for apartments other than those of commanding officers of fleets or squadrons requiring more than three-fourths of a yard to match, and for these apartments the pattern is to be no longer than will compare with the size of the cabin. All carpets for cabins are to be fitted so as to be taken up with ease. The lining should be caught together with twine, and a cover of old canvas is to be furnished for each carpet. 6. Carpets must be taken up at sea. Carpets must be covered with canvas covers when- ever any work is going on liable to soil or injure them. 7. Curtains for stern and side windows, except where such windows are fitted with Vene- tian blinds, are to be made in halves, without trimming; each half the full width of the stiiff, and not exceeding lya yards in length, lined with "silesia," gathered to the necessary fullness at the top on stout tape, and to have rings every three inches to slide on rods of brass one- fourth inch in diameter, or on hooks under cornices when those arc furnished by the Bureau of Construction and Repair; to "loop up" at the side, with loop of proper material, to curtain- hooks or knobs. 8. Table-covers of woolen cloth, one for each table in each cabin, and one for the ward- room, will be allowed. An additional one of cotton-felt cloth will be allowed for each com- manding officer and each ward-room. One of Turkey-red will be allowed for steerage and warrant officers, not exceeding two yards in length. The price to cover trimming. 9. Rugs, two for each cabin, and one for each stateroom in ward-room and steerage coun- try, will be allowed. (76) 77 Allmvances of mess and slate-room furniture. ARTICLES.
