SCRIBNER FOR AUGUsT.-The publishers
of SCRIBNER call attention to the series of
articles by Col. Waring, now being pub

"a Farmers Vacation" These papers
are claimed to be among the most amusing
as well as practically valuable illustrated
articles which have appeared for some time
past. Col. Waring is well known as an
engineer and farmer, as well as grace
full and entertaining writer. In his recent
European travels he was naturally attracted
not only by picturesque phases,-quaint
scenes and quaint people,-but also by the
various agricultural customs and devices.
His article in the August number describes
the pretty isle of Guernsey, and tells
great deal that is of interest about the
famous So called Attorney Cow, which is

which reads very like familiar letter to

be his best work. 1t will have a very

THE ARMED STRENGTH OF EUROPE
A lecture was recently delivered before the
Royal United Service Institution, London,
in which British officer gave detailed
account of the standing armies and reserves
of all the nations Of Europe. He said that,
looking at the armies of Europe from every
point of view. the rapidity with which they
can be modified, fed from reserves, con-
centrated on amy point and mantaled in
the field, he should divide them into three
classes, in the order of their strength. The
first class comprised Germany, Austria,
Russia and France; the second Italy and
den and Norway, Holland, Denmark, Spain,
Portugal, Switzerland, Greece. There are
four armies of the first class, two of the
second, and nine of the third, with, in
round numbers strength on paper of seven
and a half millions of men and combat
ant strength of five millions, with $4,000
guns and a million and a quarter of horses
In navies Great Britain is supreme, and
then come in the order of strength France,
Russia, Turkey, Austria, Germany, Italy,
Spain, Holland, Denmark, Sweden and
Norway, and Portugal. The navies of all
these have an aggregate of 2,039 vessels, of
which 200 are iron clad, the whole being
manned with $50, 900 men and armed with
5000 cannon. One hundred and ten ships
of war are now being built, and of these
Sc will be armor-plated. The expenses of
these forces amount according to this lee
turer's estimates to $3.50, 600, 900 per an
mum, of which threc-tifths go to the land
forces. The ornaments of Turkey and
Austria cost only about $50 year per
man; that Of Great Britain at the most
$500 year.
