MIR. POINSETT'S 100000, II. s. MIL
TIA FORCE.

We publish to-day the notable scheme
Of the Secretary Of War, as detailed by
himself TO Congress. We propose TO an
alyze it more fully than we have yet done,
and show it to be most daring, dangerous
and unconstitutional project. No man of
discernment can examine it without feeling
1t to be the duty ola patriot to sound the
alarm and arouse the people. We re-
peat this now, because we see the monster
beginning to stir in the Senate.
at is proposed 10 divide the United
States into eight military districts, and to
organize the militia in each district so as
to have body of twelve thousand five
hundred men in active service, and anoth-
err Of equal number as reserve. This
would give an armed militia force of TWO
HUNDRED THOUSAND MEN, so
drilled and stationed as to be ready TO take
their places in the ranks in defence of the
country, whether called upon TO oppose
the enemy or repe the iilvader.-Annual
Report of the Secretary of War.
'sThe present condition of the defenccs
of our principal seaports and navy yards,
as represented by the accompanying re-
port of the Secretary Of War, calls for the
early and serious attention of Congress;
and as connecting itself intimately with
this subject, | cannot recommend too
strongly to your attention the plan submit
ted BY that officer for the organization Of
the militia ofthe United States.-Mr. Van
Buren's last Annual Message.
The above two paragraphs contain the
g:st Of the proposition, and its strong re-
commentator by the President.
From the details of the plan, we gather
the following recommendations:
LIST sec Every free able bodied white
male citizen of the several States, between
the ages of 90 and Do, shall be enrolled in
the militia of the United States, and within
three months after, shall arm himself at his
own expense.
Cd. sec. Alloffice holders, in any way
connected with the Federal Government
shall be exempt.
Sd. sec. Citizens thus enrolled 10 consti-
tute the first class, to be denominated the
Mass, and TO be divided and organized
18th. Each regiment shall furnish two
companies Of light infantry or rAemen--
each division one company OF artillery and
one Of horse, who shall be clothed and e.
quipped at their own expense. The off.
GERS to have cut and thrust sword. Oh:
ficers of cavalry and dragons to furnish
themselves with horses, saddles, brides
breast plates, boots and spurs, pistols, sa
bre, crupper, &c. &c.

TAOU KWANG, PRESENT EMPE-
R0R OF CHINA.

Taou Kwang was born in 1871, during the
life time of his grandfather, Keen Lung, at
whose court Lord Mccartney, and the news
of happy termination Of a revolt in Thibet,
arrived nearly at the same time. The first
fifteen years of Taou Kwang's life were spent
at the court Of Keen Lung, his grandfather,
a man whose long reign of sixty years show
ed that the whole bent of his mind was set
upon the subjugaton of all the neighboring
Kingdoms and nations, and the extirpalion of
not few of them. Many captive chief
was brought 10 the imperial palace, and there
made TO writhe in all the agonies that inge
nious malice could devise for them. Such
spectacles must have had far greater effect
10 steeling the heart Of the young prince than
all the virtuous lessons of Confucian lore
could in the way of making it soft and sensi-
tive. In 1920 he came TO the throne; though
the following year, 1921, was, by imperial
edict, commanded 10 stand in the calender as
the first Of his reign.
