Messrs. Scott Co., We say, have sent us their

what it contains to their advantage Surprising
that they are, or may be, DESTROYS of taking some
of tho English periodicals, of which they have
perhaps but vague idea, the question of choice
becomes puzzle, which they will probably be
glad Tor ought to, at any rate) to have solved
for them by those whose business il is to know
all about the publications in question, their lit
erary merits and dement's, the ground they oc-
cupy in politics, religion, etc, In this matter
they may safely trust Messrs. Scott & Co., who
have been and are familiar with it, having re-
printed for years the best of the English period
icas, to the extent of five at least, which are as
many the majority can find or make time to
read. The five in question are Blackicood's
Magazine, the London Quarterly, and the Ed
inburgh. Westminster and North British Re
rieps, which representative first, the Tory ele-
ment in English politics; the second, the Con-
sentative; the third, the Wing; the fourth the
Liberal, and the fifth, the opinions of the Free
Church. For these reprints, which are made we
believe, from proof-sheets of the original English
editions. and which are not far behind them in
point of time, Messrs. Scott & Co. have a sliding
scale of prices, which is as follows:

NAVY Yard On the LaI.. 8

By treaty stipulation between the
United States and Great Britain it was
mutually sgreed that neither party should
increase their naval armament on Lake
Erie beyond 8 specified amount, without
timely notice TO the other party. SO long
as the contracting parties should remain
st psacs 1t was supposed o very small
naval force would be ample for all Pur-
poses. Bot since the rebels have made
Canada s resort, from which TO project
predatory depredations upon our borders,
it has been deemed exPedient TO increase
the naval armament on the Lakes, and tha
proper notice has been given accordingly
to the British Government.
- At the last session of Congress Select
Committee was raised 10 designate the
proper location for Navy Yard on the
shore of some of the Lakes bat no def
nite action wss taken In the premises. At
the present session, Mr.. Sprlding, The sble
and eloquent Representative from the
Cleveland district, has introduced bill for
the establishment of e Navy Yard at
Cleveland. Thereupsp the Chicago Tri.
5Hns puts IN its spoon in behalf of Chicago.
To-bs-sure, it says, Chicago has 10 need of
the thing for itself, as it IS very wealthy
and populous place already; and although
| cleveland has an ample harbor,
is alresd q considerable snip bulldog
port, snd il certainly located centrally with
reference TO the lakes whose commerce
is to be defended" yet nevertheless, It
thinks that Chicago is after al, the prop
er place for the location of the proposed
Navy Yard. It would bring dangers, and
would be q very doubtful advantage tc
Cleveland to be thus made the Arst snd
surest srens of the war" Were it mo-
thai the Tribune generously valves al
claims for Chicago on is OI0n account vi
might suggest the debt Of gratitude du'
from the whole country TO that city, 70
furnishing platform on which the 1e
nownsd democrats party experienced
utter shipwreok, and is now secured il
Davy Jones' locker" Chicago Is righ
smart chance of town, we admit but
it gets that Navy Yard away from Judg
Spslding Il will have to be early and IN
dustrious.- Columbus Journal.
