70 grievously as she would do by making
peace. She has money left in abundance. she
can fit out fleet after feet and,army after army,
so far as the paying for their equipment, COM
missariat and soldiers pay is concerned. She
will probably endeavor, under the Foraign
Enlistment bill, to raise fresh army in c3ufse
of time, to replace the one che has lost. But
can this be done? Beyond the twenty thou

the Continent can England hire mercenaries?
Prussia will not give them, nor will Austria
Switzerland has pronounced against the
scheme Spain cannot afford them. Thelesser
States Of Germany have sent us their raw ma
terial for armies. France of course reAuires
all her sons at home, and Northern Europe
without great folly could not part with theirs.
Where, then, can England hire foreign soldiers?
Turning homewards, the statesmen of
Great Britain must see that the material for
armies has left the British Isles. The operation
of the free trade though just and
necessary-has been TO feed the factories at the
expense Of the farms, to build up the cities at
the expense OF the country. An urban popula-
ton never makes good soldiers. Townsmen
are mostly weak, sickly and small, and the first
campaign takes them off. Your solid armies
are country born and country fed; and of these
Great Britain has scarcely handful left. A
few years ago, Scotland and Ireland contained
material for splendid army; now that same
material is ploughipg the earth or sowing corn
in Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan and the two
Canadas Where, then, the problem recurs
with increasing difficulty, where is Great
Britain to find an army? What is to be done
when the siege of Sebastopol is raised?

The resolution calling for the proceedings OF the Ostend

The opposition which this call originally had to en-
counter from Mr.. Bayly, House Chairman OF Foreign
Relations, will be remembered and this gentleman de
clared ignorance of the performances Of the ssyera
actors who principals in that Ostend Convention.
Since then Mr. Bayly has permitted the House to have
its way in the matter and probably from the late
discoveries he has made, he will have nothing further
whatever to DO with it. A full compliance with the
call of the House longer thought of by the Presi

great Importance among which would be revealed
the fact that under the late Spanish admins

General Pierce, empowering him to open negota-
tons with the United States, with view to FINAL

To Our CONGRESSIONAL REPORTERS. We
perceive that the two houses of Congress have
passed bill for the reorganization of the
personnel Of the Navy; but our Congressional
reporters have tailed to tell us what it is We
venture to suggest TO them in behalf Of the
associated press, that we expect at least state.
ment of the substance Of every important bill
as passed, with the report of its final
passage. Considering the pressure OF business
Of the last two or three days of the session,
few words may suffice; but we desire at least
some general explanation Of the pith and sub
stance Of every important bill as passed, in
Guiding sharp lock cut for the amendments Of
the lobby. To our special reporters and cor
respondents we would also suggest that the
tail-end of the session is like the tail of a pc
cular breed of Arabian shcep--it collects more
fat than all the rest Of the animal. Keep
sharp eye to the spoilsmen and the drafts upon
Guthrie.
