ARMING ENGL1sHMEN R1FFLEMEN-It would an.
pear that the English press is making itself merry with
the project of placing rifles in the hands of the English
people, so as to convert them into nation of sharp
show: ''''"'' "'-
We presume that we have heard the last-for the
present, at leastof the cry of riemen FORM, which
MT Ienneyson did his best to carry out. In this and
otner towns the failure was ujcrous sad caricaure on
the re and enthusiasm of the poet and as Louis Napc-
eon IN Difference to our ears has engaged to dis
arm the spasmodc effort to transform us into nation
OF sharpshooters, will speedily be forgotten.
Nevertheless, sanguine gentleman, MIR. Keith Leslie
from the northern part of the island has been striving
to persuade London morning contemporary of the ease
with which the Government by the distribution of e25
900 year, in the shape of prizes, might secure mil
hon OF remen equal to the peasants of the Tyro-those
1nerring marksmen, who made such havoc with the
French and Sandman officers in the late war; Mr. Keith
Leslies occupation, like Othello's, is now gone.
