There has been q spasm of unusual &C
tivity at the Brooklyn navy yard for two
or three months, and two or three vessels
have been prepared for sea. Why they
have been prepared for sea, OF what they
are expected to do when they get there, are
questions which the reader will have to
answer for himself. Nobody outside Of the
department knows anything about it, and
it is not probable that anybody in the de-
partment could give . rational answ1 to
these questions. There is no immediate
prospect OF foreign wal. The adminietra-
ton has established its claim to membership
Of the peace society by the amazing for
bearance with which it treats the brigands
on the Mexican border; and the navy yard
activity and its fruits are likely to remain
unsolved mysteries. Possibly a few ambi-
tious officers have grown tired of waiting
orders" and short pay, and have persuaded
the too amiable secretary to give them q
chance for q cruise and the more liberal
cmoluments Of active service.

The utter neglect of the Russians to give
proper attention to their wounded leads one
to doubt If Russians or Turks are most In
need of the humanizing influences of chris
tian civilization. An American physician
Every friendly to Russia) reports the treat
ment Of the wounded as "a most damna-
BILE outrage On humanity" He tells of over
1000 soldiers left in bullock carts through
a night and day, exposed to bitter cold, and
with no attention whatever paid to their
sufferings. These facts certainly bear q
striking resemblance to the terrible Turk
ish atrocities of which we read so much.

One of the most enthusiastic bonapart-
lists in France is Paul de CassaRnac. Some
months ago he made a violent bonapartlst
speech at Belleville, and was prosecuted by
the government. He was at that time q
member of the chamber Of deputies, and
under the law the government could not
prosecute q deputy without the permission
of the chamber. He appealed TO the cham.
her to protect him, and demanded a trial by
jury. The republicans, under the lead of
Gambetta, voted against Cassagnac's appeal,
and he had to answer for his ofense. He
warned them at the time that they were es.
tablishing q precedent that would be turned
against them some day. Gambetta is now
prosecuted by the government just as Cas-.
sagnac was. He calls for a trial by jury,
and announces his determination to appeal
to the chamber, just as C~assagnac did. The
question a. to what the republicans will do
becomes an interesting one.
