HOW' THE MONEY GOES.—In consideration of the
aeceosarily large increase of the army estimates, the
newly-appointed Secretary of State for the War De-
partment m'ght, with some advantage to the country,
direct his attention to certain matters connected with
tent with " routine," which, although
probably consis-
would appear to the uninitiated as
Woolwich Arsenal,
somewhat inconsistent with common Sense and sound
economy. It will be remembered that an immense
quantity of fireworks of a most costly description were
manufactured at this establishment, to be used at the
Peace rejoicings in the various metropolitan parks. As
