A few Items of Expenditure I'm Arms and
Ammunition. " t
From tho Salut Public of Lyons, April 81
The quantity of arms which Europe Is at this moment
engaged In transforming manufacturing Is estimated
at 1900 cannon aud 100000 rifles II the former
valued at 1000 francs each, that gives sum OF
% 00O 900 francs and that Is extremely low price.
Tho niles at 40 francs each represent sum OF one hun
dred and twenty eight millions and that In most countries
IL far below the actual the Chassepot costing %
francs aud the Swiss Winchester 100 francs This
amount will therefore probably be exceeded, and ~ all
tho accoutcmepts will also require this
expenditure which, according to tho most moderate
calculation is already twenty-five millions for cannon
and hundred and twentyeight for rifles together
one hundred and fty Millions will certainly be doubled.
II win to triple or four hundred aud fty millions,
taking into account the munition, powder lead cart
ridges &c. Let say, In round numbers i've hundred
millions. haif milliard tf20. 900 0oo)
We ask any Intelligent is u not the most grevous
thing possible 70 half milliard thus spent In In
struments OF war when the people everywhere are In
want OF primary schools, apprenticeship instruction
and professional training; when there are the most
and the most indispensable means Of communication.

Our MILITARY PREsIpENTs.-Mr. E.
Delafeld Smith, in o speech made last
Friday at the formation of n Central
Grant Club, thus referred to military
Presidents:
Mr.. E. Dela6eld Smith was appointed
temporary chairman, and in calling the
meeting to order delivered q stirring ad-
dress. He said that when the doubtful
conflict of the Revolution was succeeded
by IN assured independence u grateful
people recognized Washington as q
leader by nature, and " first in peace "
as we'll as "frst In war;" When again
the yalor of Britain encountered the
armies of our young Republic, and our
banners waved in triumph above the
fortress Of Quebec and in the streets of
New Orleans, who but jackson carried
the hearts of his countrymen Us no had
the batteries Of our enemies? When o
"new thirteen " in tho West were added
to our union of states, through tho hero
ism of Harrison, Americans were not
ungrateful, but joined tho civic wreath
to the martial laurel. Later, when the
plains of Mexico were stained with
American blood and covered with Amer
lean glories, Zachary Taylorlit with the
flashing light of his sword his trium-
plant pathway to the Presidency. And
now, when our country has lived and
triumphed in spite of the rebellion which
Europe fostered, the people look with
confiding earnestncss to Ulysses s. Grant
[great applause1 to heal the wounds in
Aicted by our enemies during the great
conflict which he brought to o glorious
result. He concluded by thanking them
for the honor extended to him, OF presi-
ding temporarily over a meeting ike
that, animated with o patriotic and no.
bic purpose.
