remarkable society in which she spent her earlier years

higher degree of development in our country than in
any other in the world, We confident that Off

PORTER CGWLES.
Hadley, May Is, 1882

TIE NAvY.-In an appeal fer the
increase of the American Navy, the
Now York Express says there is no
Disgusting the fact that We are total
ly unprepared to cope with England
or France, even separately, upon the
high seas.
Our Navy is not a tenth of either
the English or French Navy, in
ships. guns or men. AT the same
time we have the larges: commerce
in the world TO protect. 1t is not
likely that the people of this country
would consent to such an Increase Of
the Navy as would place them on an
equal floating with that Of England
or France; but that there ought to
be a very decided increase, 10 one
can doubt. Not onlY is a vast "a
mount Of property unprotected Oh
the high seas; but, in the event Of
war, such military power as France
could land as many troops as she
chose on our coast, without any in
corruption from our small Naval force.
