CAN ENGLAND GO TO WAR - The
English journals are discussing some
what anxiously the question as to
whether their government is prepared
to go to war AS proof that it is not,
we may quote the words of Field Mar
shal Sir John Burgoyne, an engineer
officer, who begun his military career
sixty-two years ago, and who has fought
against almost every foe that England
has had during that period. Sir John
is Justly regarded throughout England as
the greatest authority i'll all matters
connected with his branch of the SER
vice, and here is an extract, from a let
ter he wrote to the Times q few days
ago:
1 fully believe that we could not go
to war at present with any of the great
Powers without being subjected to hui
Mutations and losses which the high
spirit of this country would not brook
for moment, and of which the conse-
quence would fall chiefly upon the I'M
fortunate generals who happened to be
in high command at the commencement
of hostilities. To provide for such an
event what is clearly required is some
means, without unduly burdening the
country, of increasing our means of de-
fence when war broke out, that we
should not be exposed to sudden dan
ger.

Hoboken, In Behalf OF the Avondalc Fund.
Notwithstanding the unpleasant state OF the
weather This church was crowded last evening BY
very respectable congregation to hear the Rev. Dr.
]. G. Egbert on the Avondale disaster, and for the
benefit OF the fund. He took his text from the First
Thessalonians ", s.: "For when they shall say peace
and safety, then sudden destruction comerh
upon them as travail upon woman with child, and
they shall not eacape."
May not these words he stated, have proper
reference to the late Avondale calamity
which has plunged SO many into the depths
OF sorrow, and hung over our wide land

one which convey to all . lesson we ought TO

sense of security enyendered In the minds OF these
men as they descended that fatal snaft that
morning. He dwelt with great feeling upon the
importance OF being prepared to meet our Saviour
and the uncertainty Of life, and closed In most
feeling appeal in behalf OF the Avondaic Fund. A
collection was taken up which Will am ant to
