The BEGINNING Of the Military Life
Of the Hero Of the Con1oderacy.

The number Of appointments in the
Military Academy at West Point in
1912, Vas probably the largest that
had ever been made. About ont
hundred and thirty young gentlemen
presented themselves ior examination.
If whom something less than one
hundred were admitted. They wers

sorts Of badgering going on from thos'
who. having been several days at the
Point, considered themselves seasoned

While Mr.. Krupp, the celebrated
German cannon manufacturer, was at
tending the Centennial exhibition at
Philadelphia, in 1876. in conversation
with q large number of American
iron manufacturers. the future pros
meet of the iron trade was discussed.
Mr.. Krupp compared it to Pharoah's
dream, that every seven years a
change would occur-seven years
feast and seven years famine; and
and predicted that in 1873 the entire
iron trade would receive an impetus
and reach such q height in 1881

The reported occupation of the o.
toman capital by the Russians has
served very thoroughly to arouse the
British Lion to the very highest point
of belligerency. All England is ablaze
with an excitement that recalls the
craze of the Crimean war, and the
temper of the House of Commons
leaves no doubt that the government
will be sustained in any warlike meas
ures it may undertake. Up to Thurs
day the remarkably obscurlty that has
hung over the Russian movements
since the beginning of the peace nego-
tiations had not been removed; but
though there was no official informa'
ton from any quarter except . dis
quieting dispatch from Mr.. Layard.
there remained no doubt in anybodys
mind that the Notifications of the
Turkish Capital, which command the
city itself and the passage Of the Bos-
phorus. were actually in Russian con-
troll. The Car had doubtless sent out
orders for an armistice, but doubtless
his generals had taken care that the
orders should not be delivered till their
destination had been reached. This is
indeed an indignity that England
must resent, and which must summon
Austria also-unless the Imperial a.
lance still holds with marvellous
strength to guard her national prestige.
There will be nothing done till the
Representations" that are said to have
been made to the Grand Duke have
had time to produce their effect, but
the whole European situation is cer-
taiuly more critical than it has been
at any time, and the bulletin boards
during the next few days will be
watched with extraordinary interest.

A correspondent of the Times at St.
Petersburg telegraphs as follows: 81
can state positively that orders have
been sent to Russian troops to enter
Constantinople. Count Schouvalof
has been ordered to explain to Lord
Derby that as the great
powers have determined to
send their fleets to Constantinople Rus
STA is obliged to adopt similar measures,
but Russia has no intention of aggra-
waiting the situation" The Times in
its leading article says: "a portion OF
the British feet will proceed to Con-
stantinople. That is unavoidable after
what has occurred" The leader
points out that Lord Derby empha-
sizes his statement that other powers
may not consider it necessary to avail
themselves of ''firmans" for admission
of their fleets, although they had ap'
piled tor them. 1t is possible. there
fore, that British and Russians alone
may not be present at Constantinople
Such a position would be one of the
gravest anxiety. Everything may
turn upon the character of Russian
occupation. A more demonstrative
occupation as that of Paris in
1870 ought not to be regarded
as alarming, but an occupation in force
with no apparent limit in point o.
time, would throw upon our govern
ment very grave responsibility. Thu
moment is one which at q few
hasty words or q single hasty &C
might rrecipitate conflict. The gov
ernmeut have laid down certain limit
beyond which We cannot remain in
different to the advance of Russia. i
these limits are passed it will be theil
duty to act promptly and boldly
But it is equally their duty to plac'
no hasty construction on acts which
NAV be capable Of two interpretations
