THE DEFENBE OF ENGLAND FROM INVA-
SION,

TIE DEFEKBE OF ENGLAND FROM INVA.
SION.
Ominous uttertnces on the Continent to
the effect that nation wishing to seize Hin
dostan would find the shortest road to that
country BY crossing the Channel and occupy
ing London have walked up tho English mill
tary authorities. The English people have
also walked up, and since Col CuEsSEx pub
lished his anonymous pamphlet, "The Bat
ties Of Dorhng," and showed therein how
easy a German conquest Of Great Britain
would be, plan for effective defense against
On invading army has been prepared. Its
main foatures are naturally thoBeof the German
system Heretofore there has been nothing
worthy the name of system in English nsny
administration There hare been many iso-
lated. batteries and battalions, but no pro-
visions for brigades, corps, md divisions, no
arrangements for the speedy and sufficient
trims. no points Of concentration, and no set
of staff officers. The plan now being carried
out divides the country into eight districts,
to each Of which corps of &C. .22S men, with
10,5s5 horses, 1,410 carriages, end 90
guns, is allotted. The eight corps, with
the permanent garrasons, will number
nearly 100000 effective soldiers. In case
of threatened invasion, few tele-
grams will bring the whole force into
the field The rendezvous Of ench CORPS is
connected BY rail aud wire with those Of the
rest. Each can be brought within few
hours to my point On Che coast. 1t is thought
that such force Of 800, 900 men of all arms,
thus concentrated, viii be amply sufficient to
prevent the landing Of an enemy of invasion
anywhere, or to drive hostile troops suddenly

Tho rapid destruction Of the big English
iron~clads is said to have decided the Admi-
ralty to construct new feet of small, easily
handled vesse1s,-nonitors, in fact,-to re-
place the unwieldy mammoths which sink
better than they swim It would be strange
ii it should turn out that Ericsson built the
model war~ship at his first attempt In any
event, no iron-clad has yet been as serviceable
as that "cheese-bo1 on raft" which now
lies, an iron coffin, under the waves that roll
of Cape Hatteras.

The Wrong Man.

One of the members of the Methodist
conference, recently held here, was out
for walk at an early hour one morn
ing, aud while on Howard street he en-
countered strapping big fellow, who
was drawing wagon to the black
smith shop.
"Catch hold here and help me down
TO the shop with this wagon and I'll

the good man.
"Wel, you can take cigar"
81 never smoke"
The man dropped the wagon. tongue,
looked hard at the member, and asked:
Don't you chew?"
"No, SIR" was the decided reply.

mused the teamster.

"I'll bet you even that I can lay you

As they saw the bees passing round
famillarly the lady uttered timid
"Good graciousi We can't go there"
"Pshaw |" calculated her lord and mas
ter, "dOn't be foolish. Bees never mo-
lest any one that does not mOlest them.
They are perfectly harmless If you will
let them alone. All you need is a little
nerve when they come buzzing about

much as make motion towards them,
even If they should light on your face.

pride in her noble husband, the wife

Only an ERUPTION.

An individual, whose clothes looked
as though the sands OF life had nearly
run to seed, entered popular Main
street saloon recently. He looked sad
and careworn, and there was far.away
look in his left eye-which was the only
eye visible, as his hat was jamed closely
down over his organs of vision-and tis
air and appearance were those of
a man who wished to avoid the
gaze of the vulger herd. But he was
sOciable, wthstanding appearances.
Approaching the bar, he remarked to
the bar-keepcr that he guessed he would
take a nice whisSey cocktail, with a
little wine into it," While the barkrep-
er was erecting the cocktail the stran-
gers uncovered eye fell on a group Of
gentlemen who were standing at the end
of the bar-cOunter, discussing Tiden's
6nancal views as opposing to Red Frank
Wheeler's method of running quartz
mills, and he observed Gentlemen,I
hope | don't interrupt but won't ye
take sOmethin' 2" Tilden and Wheeler
were dropped instantaneously, and seven
voices simultaneously exclaimed Ger
tainly ~ and seven gentlemen ranged
themselves in front OF the bar and gave
their orders. The drinks were all
mixed and each man stood at rest, with
his hand on his class the barkeeper
said " All set, gentlemen" and one of
the gentlemen was just about to re-
mark " Here's luck" when the stran-
er observed. :" So they've got case of
smallpox here at last" No." said
the barkeeper, " have they, though ?"
Well, returned the stranger, II don't
know whether it's a case OF genuine
smallpox or not you see this disease
is hard to determine in the first stages.
Now a doctor up to the upper end of
town expressed the opinion that I've
got the smallpox but | don't believe
It's anything mOre'n a varioldai erup>
tiOn, 80 to speak, mild case OF variola,
as it were " Then he showed up his hal
and displayed fearfully blotched fore
head, and the bar-keeper jumped over
the bar at one jump and went up town
to see what time the ten o'clock train
would get in, and the seven gentlemen
went out of the back door to look at the
stock quotations.; and the stranger gen.
uy lifted his cocktail to his lips and
drained the glass and said he guessed
he would stampede, too.

him, but took the precaution to throw
light shawl over her head and
leaving only a peep hole for
one eye. Running up to her husband
who was walking along looking Mt a
bee which had just lit on his nose, and
wondering whether tile cussed little
creature was going to give him one just
for luck, aud thinking how sweet he
would look with proboscis resembling
a quarter section OF lobster, she in
Quired "JOhn, amt YOU afraid ?" not
thinking of anything else approp late
to the occasion. He curled up his lip
and the tip of his nose In disdain at the
thought, and just then he got it from
the bee upon the upper deck. His wife
will never forget the exclamation he
gave utterance to and The bystanders
generally remarked that 1t was exnaus'
tive, and fully did Justice to the Oc-
casion. He struck at the bee viciously,
and in second the whole Skidmore
guard, Jerusalem warblers and Gilmore
band were upon him. They took him
in the face, and crawled up his nose
and sank more shafts on the top of his
bald head Than there are on the Com
stock lode. Ii he had been possessed
OF a thousand hands he could not have
kept the enemy off, and if his name had
been job he could not have helped
calling down maledictions upon the
women as he heard his wife advising
under her shawl: Don't hit at them
John Don't fight them!' There was G
general roar of laughter as the "mal
Of nerve" took to his heels, his arm
working like an old fashioned windmill
during a gale, while his wife walked
along secure in her bee proof. .-SaI
