Tne re-establishment of a militia force in England
is a .abject of far too much importance to be adopted
as • matter of course because the tories have gained
one division upon it in the House of Corn-1
none. If any one will take the trouble to
refer to the first article of the number of
the Edinburgh Review, published in April, 1807, he
will find, mantis tisseandis, all the arguments of our
primal believers in invasion exactly m they are now
limed in our ears. Yet the military power of France,
as compared with that of other nations, was then
greater than now; its ascendancy over the conti-
nental states was greater than now; the chief who
wielded its enormous power was infinitely superior to
the man who does so now,and equally unscrupulous in
pandering to the vanity of his nation and promoting
his own personal ambition. Yet the panic of 1807
proved vain and groundless.
It is said that the discipline and equipment of con-
tinental armies have been greatly improved since the
Limo referred to; but tho discipline and equip-
ment of the British army (though doubtless leaving
room for improvement) have deo been im-
measurably bettered since it welt through the prat>
tical school of the Peninsular war. With all its
faults it would be grossly unjust to compare the con-
dition and management of our present army with
those of the army which imbecile commanders made
a laughing-stock in Holland, Walcheren, and the
Austrian Netherlands. Again, it u said that the
facilities of invasion have been greatly increased by
the growth of a continental steam marine, and the
increased facilities of locomotion on the continent.
But the facilities of defence have been augmented in
a still greater degree by the much more rapid growth
and greater excellence of the British steam marine, and
by the case which our railway system imparts to
the rapid concentration and movement of troops, and
commissariat and other supplies. The advisee in
military resources and skill has been common to
England with the rest of the world. If greater
power for assault can bo brought to bear upon tae,
: iimeans of defence have been placed at our
changes that have taken place since the time
of our great internecine duel with NAPOLEON are of a
nature that admit of a more perfect spina of
defence being organised and maintained at Ism
difficulty to the nation, and with less annoyance to
private individuals than then. But our parliamentary
wiseacres would still bungle away at the old an-
bream, inefficient, harassing system. They see no
alternative but either so large a standing army
as would weaken the national coffers and
endanger the national liberty, or a militia
system that, without producing reliable warriors,
must be felt to be a public nuisance. Now
• little 'reflection ought to teach them, that
with our railways a comparatively
.small army in
time of peace is all that is required, in addition to
the naval force that ought always to be kept within
reach of our shores. That arm,, quartered in central
localities, could at a moments warning be conoen-
trated and directed, with all its appurtenances, upon
any point by railway where the electric telegraph
gave notice that it was needed. It could be moved
by railway from point to point without fatiguing and
wearing out the men. This is enough for any sudden
unforeseen assault: if the war threatened to be pro-
longed, of course its numbers would require to be
augmented. What is wanted is not awkward squads
of militia, but a healthy, bravo population accustomed
to the use of arms. By encouraging athletic games
among the whole population, rural and urban—asso-
ciations and meetings for the practice of every athletic
sport, from cricket, running, leaping, and wrestling,
to the play of singlestick and the use of the rifle, we
altoald always have in abundance the raw materials
atmddiers. An alarm of invasion would make a
national youth so trained ever prompt to volunteer
their services, and in the company of high-spirited,
thoroughly disciplined soldiers, with a rational un-
pedantic system of drill, they might take the field
at once more efficient than the conscripts of NAPO-
LEON.
This is the truth that has now to be impressed on
do minds of the legislature, and, still more, of
the minetitnencies. Though the abstract principle of
the netts bill has been affirmed by the vote of the
Harr it Commons, it is not finally settled. It is a
quad. on which an appeal will lie to the consti-
tombs at the general election, and upon it quite as
mak as upon free-trade and financial and parlia-
mentary reform, and national education, a stand
must then be made. The militia is • question, that—
like the bread-tax—will eventually be felt and under-
stood in every home in the kingdom.
With regard to the effect of the vote of Monday
night on the position of ministers, it may for
a time help to embolden them for the eva-
sive, delusive game they are playing. It affords
them a colourable pretext for denying; that
there is oppmed to them m majority so nu-
merous and irreconcilably hostile in the
Commons, as to render the prolongation of
the swoon, and postponement of a dimolutios,
indecent and unconstitutional. It will encourage
to

them in their

to seek to gain

feel the national pulse, and attempt " aimbinatioos,"
dla Fakredeett. It widens their chances of III&
UM in the tricky " policy " of providing cull
, dates who will square their professions to the widow
of any and every constituency, while they arc pro.
pared servilely to support by their votes the prang
occupants of office.
It will be seen by the division list that as a body the
were absent at the vote. That list must ho re-
SIND ed at the coming elections. No man wishes the
eonntry to be unprotected, but the folly of those who
pretend to see no safety but in a raw 21 days'-drilled
militia, cannot easily be excused. By the bill of
Mr. WALPOLE the 42 of Geo. 111., cap. 90, is pro.
posed to be revived, together with all acts amending
that act now in force. Here is a charming prospect.
Fortunately, however the matter is not yet settled,
and opportunities will yet arise for discussion and
amendment before the new militia bill can become the

law of the land.
The chief hope for the future is in the good sense
and good temper of the community. The present is
a time whoa every judicious and public-spirited man
ought to feel how much depends upon his own
efforts and dispositions. In no circumstances could
the avoidance of irritating topics—earnest, unwaver-
ing, adherence to essential principles, desire to act
in concert with the enlightened and honest, bo more
imperatively the duty of all.

The Commissioners who hold the Surplus Fund
of the Great Exhibition long since positively decided
they would not spend one shilling of the cash upon
the building where that money was received. The
great exertions now being made to preserve the
Crystal Palace do not, therefore, clash in any degree
with the proposition that each locality which contri-
buted to the un-used Guarantee Fund should receive
back, for the establishment of Local Free Libraries,
the suns they each contributed.
When one of the Scottish chiefs, on the ore of the
battle of Bannockburn, allowed himself to be out-
flanked by a detachment of the English army,
Since simply remarked, " Reinotrii, your wreath
has lost a rose ;" and the taunt galled the sluggard to
such exertions as enabled him to redeem his fault.
The local committee of Manchester, by their indoci-
I @ion in meeting the right of their locality to its con-
tribution to the Guarantee Fund for the Exhibition of
18.51, have allowed a rose to fall from their wreath.
They met to talk over the matter. One thought the
money might be got back, another not ; ono thought
it ought to be asked for, another not ; and so the con-
ference ended in talk, and a resolution to do nothing.
This is not like the earnestness and promptitude with
which Manchester men have a character for acting.
Will this delicate hint of the figure they cut suffice
to inspire them with a little more energy ?
If not, will emulation and chagrin at seeing the
greater resolution and decision with which others act
have any influence over them ? Belfast, the Man-
