A CoRREsPoSDEET writing 10 the Chicago
Times from Washington, in brief letter,
shows how utterly helpless the United States
would be in case Of sudden outbreak be-
tween it and any of the great powers of the
world. Indeed, according to this correspon'
dent, who seems TO write knowingly, we are,
in the matter Of naval armament, o, the
mercy of poor Spain, which we have been
accustomed to look upon as crippled aud
powerless. Worse. still, the protective sys-
tenn has palalyzed ship building on this side
of the Atlantic, and in any great emergency
we could not in any reasonable length o.
time improVise navy, however well sup
piled with funds or willingly disposed. The
truth is we have been acting the part Of
children in constructing and managing our
navy, and have been boasting of a war pre-
stige that we had NOT 1t is high time tha.
thsre was an end to such folly, and that the
proper authorities were directing the sner-
gies Of the government to building snd
equipping navy worthy of a first calss
power, and capable of protecting our interest
in every quarter of the globe.
