A FLASH OF MILITARY SENSE.

From the ~ Y. Tribune.
The Picawune New orleans) states tna'
General Reynolds, commanding the depart
meut of Texas. has adopted the following plan
for proteotfp0 her northern and northwestern
frontiers from savage incursions:-
Recommending officers Of posts, within what may
no termed the indian range, are ordered 10 enIOl
nc ~ citizens OF the counties embraced within tne
t Io nf their respective posts for service, in CO.
oneraton with the troops, against Ine maIauunS inIS
Ye believe but carries into effect an order OF General
c,anbys 20 the same purport Whlle out on service,
the enrolled men Will 1Iy at Ine apPrGN torae vi s Te
sistence and ammunition, and they must provide
their own horses but shall receive no pay"
We see no reason why these men should
not be paid for rendering the country, at the
command of its lawful authorities, an arduous,
perilous service. They must leave their crops
or their shops to ride night and day through
forests and deserts in pursuit OF willy, fleet,
murderous savages; why should any public
service be paid for If not this And how can
the frontier be defended more cheaply or more
efeotually than by armed and mounted from
tiersmenY
Our regular army, so far as regards sending
infantry against mounted Indians, is a farce.
Sending regiments to the Pacific is costly,
barefaced swindle; but sending infantry and
artillery to scour the Plains is no less so. You
might as well send a tortoise after a crow.
What we need in time of peace is the mere
skeleton of an army, composed of capable,
honest, experienced officers, under department
commanders who can be trusted MOTTO be fooled
by false alarms. Let such commanders have
each colonel and three or four captains who
know their business, with authority to call out
one hundred to one thousand men whenever
they should believe savage incursion immi-
nent; and let our army, so far as the interior
is concerned, be composed of these alone.
The Pacific Railroads and Overland Telegraphs
have given us advantages hitherto unknown;
and no district commander need be three days
in mastering all the men he may need. Now,
Just disband or call off your regulars, and let
the district commanders be authorized to call
out so many volunteers as they may judge
needful, paying each SO per day for self, horse,
arms, and blanket, or fifty cents less in case
he is armed by the Government. We do not
believe this system would cost so much as
feeding our soldiers on the Plains now does;
while it would render hostile Indians very
scarce after two or three years. Why not
try it?

THE BOGUS TRIPLE ALLIANCE.

From the ". I. Sun.
No well.informed person credited for mo-
ment the sensational story sent over by cable
that England, France, and Spain had taken
initial steps towards forming an alliance
against the United States. Those three an
oient monarchies will find that they have
ample work on hand in holding peaceable
possession of territories to which they have
some show of legitimate claim, without trou-
bling themselves too much about the disposi-
.ion of those with whose destiny they have no
rightful concern.
Our recent English files show that Ireland
is in a very disturbed and turbulent condition.
The disestablishment of the Irish Church,
which the Gladstone Ministry tenders to Ire
land as measure of peace, so far from curing
the chronic troubles of a disafected people,
seems to be made the occasion by them for
demanding fresh concessions from the British
Crown. As to France, the cable now daily
tells us of new and serious election conflicts,
oocasioned by the insane attempt of the Gov
ernment to disperse orderly meetings of cleo
to rs assembled to discuss public affairs. II
Napoleon is half as wise as he is claimed to
be, he will not forget that the efforts of his
predecessor to break up the reform bsnquets
of 184S sent Louis Philippe in hot haste across
he Channel, clad in a cheap fisherman's coat.
And Spain, too, tossing on the surges of
revolution, distracted by struggling factions,
and vainly Offering her crown in the markets
overt of royalty, is more likely to suffer ship
wreck in the storm than to be able to make
headIsgainst her Cuban insurgents.
So far from these three powers entering into
an alliance to arrest the march on this conti-
nent of republic which contains three mil
lions of men'who have again and again been
under fire in war that has few parallels in
history, they will be much more inclined to
give us wide berth in all matters pertaining
to the Western Hemisphere.
Besides all this, Prussia and Russia, two of
the foremost nations in Europe, have out
standing accounts to settle with England and
France, look upon Spain with contempt, are
oultivatipg close and cordial relations with
this country, and would view with hostile
eyes any alliance which these three powers
might enter into against the United States.
Doubtless the telegram sent over the ocean
was the hasty production of some small
scandal-monger whose word would not pass
current on the London Exchange or the Paris
BOurse for single share in any solvent rail-
way in Europe. 1t had slight momentary
effect upon stocks, but it is now generally
secuted, and that is the end of it.

THE GREAT AsIATIC SECTION OF THE

UNION AND ITS VAST RESOURCES.
From the NJ Y. Herald
The completion of the Pacific Railroad, in
connection with the wonderful discoveries of
gold and silver recently made in our new
States and Territories, from the great plains
west OF the Mississippi river to the Pacific
Ocean, has awakened a new and general in
terest throughout the continent in regard
to that interesting section of the United States.
Its geographical features, here and there,
soil, productions, and mineral resources,
therefore, for the information of our readers,
in a few general remarks, we shall make
the text of this article.
The territorial area of the United States
(excluding the detached four hundred and
eighty-one thousand square miles of Alaska,
which for all practical purposes just now may
be left out in the oold) is in round numbers
three million square miles-an enlargement
from about eight hundred thousand square
miles on the establishment of the Union
eighty-two years ago. The section lying bs
tween the Mississippi river and the Pacific
Ocean covers over two-thirds OF this area OF
r three millions of square miles. Leaving out
the tier of States-Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri,
Arkansas, and Louisiana-on the west bank OF
the Mis- ssissippi, the country directly under
confederation embraces the following States
and Territories, east or in the Rocky Noun

Democracy Staggering.

SroNEhsTowx, Pa, May "a, 1889.
Ma EoiroR Allow me through your col
umns 10 notice the last dodge Of Democracy
right at home. Imagine oar surprise at hear
ing Of our old friend s. being in our
midst out on an electionesring tour on an
entirely new plan We have often heard Of
candidates quietly dropping Y or an y into
the hand of some energetic landlord or lady,
but for the first time in our short experience
have we been called upon TO record the drop
ping Of full two gallon demi john into the
hands Of an honest, good landlady, to be dis
tribated for his own benefit on the day at
election for candidates. Ii our good landlady
would give said beverage, we would in the
name of common sense ask cur friend where
her bread and butter IS to come from? He
must certainly have forgotten that she keeps
a good supply constantly on hand. Now the
query with us is whether S. is acquainted
With the true state of his party here, or
whether be thinks he can buy our district
with two gallons. We are aware Of the fact
that Democracy is weak kaeed, but must
confess that we did not know that so small
quantity would have SO powerful an effect.
We have heard Of Democracy swinging round
The circle, but never knew Of il leaving such
small tokens behind bat these are iudica-
tive Of the source from whence they came.
We are sorry that we cannot boast Of wisdom

know them X.
