SARDINIA AND PIEDMoSr.-Our readers, who c
geography IS rusty, will remember that the
words Sardinia and Piedmont are used BY the
newspaper writers as expressing one and the
same Idea. In part, Piedmont Is but the CEN

tory. that no distinction is made. now-a-,iays
between the two in ordinary speech. The con
JASON introduced into current newspaper nc

VOLUNTEER DEFENcE.-The unerring Judgment
of mankind tells them that mere standing ar
mics and fleets are not a sufficient defence of
nations. a mere artificial organization, which
may lie demolished by campaign, pes,ilence
OF tempest-which some event like az Indian
mutlny may cause to be wholly transported
from the land it raised to defend-does not
give a hi security TO the people, who may at any
moment be deprived of It's service There can
be only one true defence OF a nation like ours
a large and permanent volunteer force supper
ted by the spirit and patriotism of our young
men, and grad ually matchmaking the country
with military knowledge. We are the only peo-
pie in the world who have no such force In one
form or another. There are the Americans, at
5000 miles distance from Europe, and without
an enemy rival on their own continent
Yet they keep militia which muster sew
eral hundred thousand strong, and on some oc-
caslons New York wears the aspect of Euro
pean metropolis. such Is the parading. drumming
and firing. The result of this Is to be seen in
the confidence they have IN their own strength
