porunity Of explaining their views about the defenses
OF the country The gallant General did not believe
that we were at this moment in state Of safety.
He advised that good lookout should be kept, lest
any slippery turn should be played us. Sir Charles
Napier also took gloomy view of things. The
French he said possessed $50 steam vessels in their
commercial marine, and at least $50 steamers in their
navy. England, it was true, possessed many more
than this; but what was there to prevent the En-
peror of the French from laying an embargo on all
the vessels in bis ports, using them transports for
his troops and in fortnight from such time all his
fleet might anchor in the Portland Roads, 1t was
