In THE ENGLISH PARLIAMENT last
week, Mr.. Cross, the Home Secretary,
announced the opinion of the Cabinet,
and denounced the oppression and intol-
erance of the Turkish government. He
declared that England would do nothing
toprotect the Ottoman Empire. She would
protect the Suez Canal, that shortcut
to India, in which she has a great politi-
cal as well as pecuniary interest, and
would not permit any power to interfere
with the freedom of the Dardanelles
further, the British goaernment would
protect Constantinople from becoming the
prize of conquest; did not think it posi-
BILE that Russia could or would defy all
the rest of Europe by seizing Egypt or
Constantinople, and would use its power
to stop the war, or at least to mitigate its
evils, and to improve the condition of the
Christian populations under the Moham-
medan rule. The general feeling in
England most certainly is that Russia is
performing an act of humanity in taking
up arms to punish Turkey for barbarous-
ly treating the Christians within her ter
ritory.
But England cannot do what her Home
Secretary proposes and be a neutral
power. In order to protect Constantine
pie, England will have 10 place some Of
her heaviest armed ships on the Bospho-
rus and at the Dardanelles Ibis will in
volve her in the war, and once on the
side of the Turk she will have to make
common cause with him, or sell out for a
consideration, which may be in the shape
of treaty with Russia in which England's
share of the Ottoman Empire will be
agreed to, and Russia's possessions in India
defined and her progress there stopped.
The result of the war will no doubt be
the destruction of the Turkish govern
ment, since all that Is left by Russia will
be divided between the other powers.
Where the British Lion once fixes his
claws he rarely withdraws his hold. Here
after ii is possible that England will have
to take the place of the Turk in keeping
Russia from her long coveted position OF
the Bosphorous. But we do not thinl
the British statesmen will assume thi:
hostile attitude on the contrary they
will endeavor to escape it by treaty ant
an alliance of some sort in which England
will be induced to believe she win extend
her power and dominion In some such
way as to make her influence, as com
pared with Russia's, as great in the future
as it is at present.

THE LAST SIEGE OF GIBRALTAR.-The
most memorably, in some respects, of all
the fourteen sieges to which Gibraltar
has been subjected was the last, called
the "great SIEGE" one of the mighty
struggles of history, which began in the
year l779 The famous General Elliott
was commander of the fortress. Spain,
in alliance with France and Morocco,
endeavored to surprise Gibraltar; bat a
Swedish ship gave Elliott the alarm. The
garrison comprised but five companies of
artillery, and the whole force was less
than five thousand five hundred men.
The enemy's force was fourteen thou
sand. The siege began by the blockading
OF the port, and q camp was formed at
San Rogue with the design of starving
out the garrison. When the English
Governor resolved to open fire upon his
besiegers, lady in the garrison fred the
hrst shot Never did siege war rage
more furlously than did this for nearIv
three years. The garrison was often re-
duced to sore straits for food; "a goose
was worth a guinea" and Elliott tried
upon himself the experiment of living
upon four ounces ofrice day for a week
Exciting stories are told of the privateers
that ran in, amidst terrible dangers with
provisions, and of the storms which
threw welcome wood and cork within

time would surely have been taken had it
not been for Admiral Rodney, who, sail
ing off the strait, captured a small fleet
OF Spanish war ships and merchantmen,
and clearing the strait of besiegers,
brought his prizes into port. But ali
danger was not yet averted; Gibraltar
was again blockaded; scurvy broke out
in the garrison, and Morocco refused her
harbors to. English ships. The enemy
crept closer and closer to the fortress, but
relief coming every now and then en-
abled the English still to hold out The
bombardments were fearful to endure.
"The city was almost destroyed; scarcely
house habltable, and those left standing
pierced by shetland shell. At one time
the desperate garrison fell to plundering
the town; Elliott shot the leaders in this
outrage. The long agony, full of terrific
eombats and frightful privatione, ended
by the final abandonment of the siege
early in 1888 If in that year the English
had to make up their minds that thew
must let go their American colonies they
had at least the consolation that GibraI-
tar was still theirs.-GEoRGE NJ. ToWLE,

The New York Tribune has invented a
very neat and apparently inexpensive
method of divesting the war map of its
greatest terrors. 1t consists as we can OBJ
serve from this distance, of printing the
map upside down, thereby saving the
reader from the danger to which he ex-
poses himself in standing on his head to
get a really comprehensive view of the

MEXICAN BORDER TRoUBLEs.-It
usually happens when there is PROPOSE
ton for reduction of the army, with a
reasonable hope for success, that the
trouble on the Mexican border along the
Rio Grande looms up, with strong prob
abilities of war with that power. Now
when there is no use for retaining more
than 10000 or $4,000 men, stories of fire.
quent raids across the Rio Grande are
being published, with view, there is lit
tie doubt, to have the number of troops in
creased there and used in catching the nu-
merous thieves who come over into Texas
and drive off cattle and horses belonging
to our people. 1t would, of course, be
cheaper to pay for these cattle than to
give Mexico pretext for making war on
us, or for the United States to make war
ON Mexico. We believe we ought to
have more southern border-we ought
to have Lower California bu. we don't
want to pay for it either in money or the
lives OF our people. 1t is not for the ag-
grandizement of Our people that we de-
sire this territory. Its acquisition would
result more TO the benefit of its Mexican
Inhabitants than to any other people,
while it would tend to secure peace and
increase the prosperity of both nations.
Just now what the people most desire is
national economy, and this can be great
ly promoted by reducing the army at the
earliest time possible.
