Our monitors are armed exclusively
with smooth bore guns-a fact which
especially fits them to encounter hostile
iion-clads. 1t is well known that when
a rife bullet is fired at a window pane
It goes through the glass, making a
hole large enough only for its passage.
When the same bullet is thrown by
hand the glass is broken into dozens of
pieces. An analogous effect is produced
by smooth bore and rifed ordnance
respectively when used against iron an
NOR. The rifle ball, moving at high
velocity, simply pierces the armor /;
while the ball from the smooth bore,
moving at comparatively low velocity,
smashes the armor and the backing be-
hind it into hopeless wreck. A know
ledge of this fact, deduced from careful
experiment, led to the arming OF The
monitors with smooth bore guns, and
instead Of legretting that they do not
carry rifles we ought to congratulate our
selves upon the fact that they are armed
with the most efficient weapons in the
world for fighting Spanish or any other
iron clads.

James Howard and John Carter, two
forgers from New York, were arrested
at st. Louis yesterday for passing a

one day last week.
There is every probability that the
difficulties arising from the capture of

The administration continues its war

being spent in preparing for contingent

averted by the exercise of judgment.
Tom Allen and Tom Kelly returned

HELPING THE POOR,

1t is not one Of the duties of the state
or municipal government to furnish
situations for those who are out of en-
ployment but when this can be done
by the simple expedient of fastening
public works which must be done at
some time, it is commendable. In New
Jersey alone we have small army Of
operatives, according to the census of
1870, numbering seventy-fve thousand
five hundred and fifty-two. OF the
whole number in the nation at large, at
least one-third are now out of employ
ment. In some parts of this state, the
proportion is even larger How is this
mass Of humanity to live pending the
existing depression of our industries
This is question of great deal more
importance than any matter Of foreign
or domestic politics, and it should re-
ceive serious thought and study at the
hands of our best and most intelligent
people. Whatever may be done in the
way of relief should be done Immediate
ly, and in such a way as not to destroy
the independence of those to whom as
sistance is rendered. The New York
Evening Mail says
1t is matter of no small impol ian G
that our honest workingmen be saved
from sinking into the hopeless and ex-
pensive class of paupers. Once de-
graded to that position and deprived of
the self respect that springs from indie
dendence, even though driven to it by
irresistible necessity, they will hardly
rally again, and if permanently degrad-
ed to pauperism, they will bring upon
the community trouble and expense
which will be the just penalty of the
policy which forced them to that posi-
ton. Not only will they be directly
troublesome and expensive as paupers,
but they will swell the ranks from which
the still more troublesome and expensive
class of criminals is drawn. Merely as
selfish economic policy the proposed
employment of extra laborers on the
public works this winter will prove to
be wise and prudent measure.
Our city authorities ha We not as yet
indicated what course they will pursue
in the existing emergency but there
can be no doubt that they should give
employment to as many persons as
possible We are well aware that the
city finances are not in condition to
justify the prosecution of Improvements
on any extensive scale, but it certainly
must be possible to raise in some way
the means necessary for carrying for
ward certain works which have been in
contemplation, and which can be COM
pleted now at much less expense than
in ordinary times.

The counsel for Mr.. Tweed, W. o.
Bartlett, John Graham, ex-Judge Full
lerton, Willard Bartlett, and Elihu
Root, were in their seats almost an hour
before the opening of the court
At half past ten the door of the ante
room opened, and William NJ. Tweed
entered, followed by Deputy Shields.
Mr.. Tweed walked more erect than
usual. His cheeks, nearly always red,
We're rather pale, and there was a look
in his deep-set blue eyes as though he
shrank from the ordeal before him.
But it was only for moment. Without
CHANGING to the right or to the left he
made his way through the yielding
crowd to where Messrs. Bartlett and
Graham sat, and leaning over he en-
gagged in close conversation with them.
Gen. Tweed took a seat close to his
father. His face, too, was pale, and
there was strong, repressed feeling in
his eye. He showed much more agita-
ton than his father, but both seemed

rAE WAR CLoup p1sAPpgARING.


Those who have had access to official
quarters report that they do not find af-
fairs so very serious as sensational dis
patches had led them to expect, and
they are quite generally of the opinion
that, unless some unexpected difficulty
intervenes the war cloud will be dispell-
ed without resort to arms. This, how
ever, will not delay the administration
in its active preparations for the contin-
gency Of war, SO that it will be ready to
obey the declaration of congress as soon
as it is made. Even in the Washington
navy yard, yesterday and last night,
work was going on, and the secretary of
state was in consultation with the secre-
tary Of the navy. The country members
of congress are all opposed to war, and
will only vote for it on the earnest re-
commentator OF the president, and the
evident pressing necessities of the hour.
They declare that their constituents are
all opposed to war, even on foreign soil,
and have had enough of domestic war
for the present generation. Some of the
city members take the opposite view,
and are evidently impelled to it by the
large unemployed laboring element in
their different districts. But of course
much depends on the attitude of the
Presidents message to congress week
hence.

The action of the war department, in
ordering the immediate preparation and
strengthening of our coast defenoes
against an attack by sea, confirms in
some degree the supposihon that the
serious condition OF affairs at Madrid

denial of any such condition ; for it will
be remembered that the same defences
We're made ready against the same dan

cessarily be for instant service.

mean apprehensions of actual and i'm

The defences of New York harbor are
announced as being at this moment
ready for the combined assault of the
Spanish navy, and the army engineers,
who have worked away at their electric
torpedoes in comparative silence for sew
eral years, going over to Europe in small
detachments and studying the system
there, are as confident as the traditions
of their corps permit them to be that,
with the assistance of the heavy smooth
bores already mounted at the works,
they can turn back or send to the bot
tom the most formidable vessels of
Spain.
The deficiency in the reserve supply
of torpedoes for the several harbors oc-
casions no anxiety, as effective substi-
tutes can be provided as fast as water
tight kegs and casks can be collected,
and in very short time an abundant
supply OF submarine wire for conducting
the exploding sparks will be on hand
ready for distribution.

SPANS objections to our demands are
built mainly on the allegation that the
Virginius was not an American vessel.
The form of these objections will be
found elsewhere, but their only point in
favor of Spain is that to consider them
necessitate indefinite delay. The Span
ish presumption, that the vessel was not
American when she actually was SO, in
no way justifes the Spaniards for seiz-
ing her and numbering those on board.
The position of parties in Spain renders
the tenure of the CASTELAR, Ministry very
unsafe if it consents to yield to our de
mands, and if the objections it has sent
are the best that it can do to meet the
case war is certain.

The approaches to our harbors are to
be protected by torpedoes. The engi-
neer department OF the navy will at
once prepare torpedoes with the need
full electrical instruments and wires, ETC.,
to be placed at proper points along the
coast. 1t is believed, too, that our tor
pedo boats will do splendid service at
sea, when called upon to provo their
destructive power. In the late Franco.
German war the splendid navy of
France could do nothing along the
German seaboard, on account of the
terrible torpedoes with which the Ger
mans had lined al the approaches to
their harbors and coasts. We are
far ahead of Spain, and even of Ger
many, in this tremendous weapon-the

The wreck of the telegraph cable
steamship Robert Lowe, off the coast of
Nova Scotia, during the storm of the
18th instant, with the loss of eighteen
persons, including the captain, is
another addition to the long list of ter

inhospitable coast to be dreaded by
navigators. There was heavy shock,
the vessel having struck rock, but
though the time for preparation was
very brief three boats were launched
and twenty-five persons reached the
shore in safety. The captain bravely
aided in saving others, and persisted at
his post. The tremendous waves de-
stroyed the vessel in very brief time.
