THE ALABAMA CLAIMS,

AIr. Gladstone's truthful statement il.
Parliament, that the Alabama question
stands virtually where it did yehr and
half ago, shows that, thus far, Prosiden'
Gtant's administration has neglected wholly
very important duty. As the matter at
present stands, our government has made
no well-dcfned demand, capable either OF
acceptance or refusal: il has expressed
wish that the discussion Of the general
questions shall not he further extended.
and that, should negotiations again be
opened, they shall be conducted Mt WASH
ingtou. We can conceive Of no possible
action on this question that would be
weaker or more purposcless than this, II
the administration means to wait un-
til England is embarrassed by some
foreign war, and then present our
demands, our course is both coward
" and dishonest. A settlement
Of these claitnR, enforced by taking Eng
land at such disadvantage, would have
no moral, legal, or international weight as
a precedent; on the contrary, il would be
effected by means bnt little faircr than
those by which tho Claims wore incurred.
If, on the other hand, we are not waiting
to take England at disadvantage, then
thero could hive been no more favorable
time than the past year and 3 half to pre-
sent square bill and demand full settle
ment. Why has nothing been done? Mt.
Motley has had nothing else on his hands,
and Mr.. Fish very little. Tbs loss Of in
tercst during this year has been equal to a
sixteenth OF the principal. Ia it expected
that England will come begging to our feet
to know what claims abe may have the
privilege Of paying. l. it sup
possible that, 30 long rs our own govern
ment cannot make up its mind what VIC
want, England viii beg the privilege of
| paying our highest possible demand for the
sake of peace? We hare nothing to gain
md an to lose by the delay OF action on
these claims Meanwhile, tha sufferers
from the dcp1edations Of tho Anelo-rebe,
pirates have stood their Losses "a bost they
might and now see no reason to hope tha,
they viii ever be repaid. Our government
has appointed no commission to invcstigat.
their extent or nature, or to provide fo
their payment. In short, whatever VI,
could do by neglect 10 confirm and DEF
petuate the losses inflicted by tho Anglo
rebel pirates, has been done. BY this poll

It is interesting to examine the lines Of de-
fence and the strategic points OF Prusaia. At
present the North German Confederation has
nine fortified plAcea Of the first cla-s:
On the Rhtne-AaJence, Cobleatxe, co!os3e.
On tse Ehe-k1tlgsteln, Madgebonrs.
On tho Odef-Stetstn.
On the Nattha-eoseu.
Near the moath Of the yistuia-Dantzig.
On the 1Icce%k6ntgsburg.
All these places are on prussiAn Territory,
except Mayence, in Hease, and Kfenigstein, in
Sa1ony. It VAS decided, lattcr1y, thst the
lines Of al these fort1esses Of the drst-cl.ss
would be modified, but in commencing, the
exterior Works, without touching the existing
ones. at Aayencc, Cologne, ,aand Magdebourg,
these works are in progress
The fortified places Of the second class num-

On the Galre-S41Telouis.

Among tile port dsfencas those OF kiel aal

In g1ancing at the map Of Germany, it will
