THE ROMANCE OF WAR.-War is ter
rible thing, and it is difficult to see any
good resulting from it, except in the
vindication of human rights and individ-
ual equality in legal and social status.
All territory gained by war seems to cost
more than it is worth to the winning
side. But there is romance often al.
tached to war which carries the sympa
thies of men and leads to deeds that ex-
ceed the bounds of reasonable belief.
A few years ago when the Grand Duke
Alexis was in this country, if anyone
would have asserted that in so short
time, German ship would sail into one
of our ports, freighted with five hundred
Russian passengers, on such mysteri-
GUS errand as that of the Cimbria, it
would have been thought mere imagina-
ton, and still more imaginary would it
have been thought had it been said those
five hundred passengers were sailors
and soldiers ready drilled as the crews of
several men-of-war to be purchased here
and fitted out to prey upon the COM
merce of Great Britain. There certainly
is something romantic in these Russian
people-the abject subjects and servants
of the Czar-coming so many thou
sand miles to this free country, and
here undertaking to fight the "Mistress
of the Seas" on her choice element. 1t
is really ditficult to determine which to
admire most the population of that stur-
4 4 Il IL. III. IL.
army of 100000 men throwing itself
across the pathway of the Colossus Of
the North-the whole Russian Empire
with its million and half of soldiers, or
of the strange people who have come SO
far over land and sea to this free country
where to start afresh in the deadly strife
To wound their adversary in its most
vulnerable aud tender part. Surely the
Cimbria is the arrow that has pierced
the British coat of mail, and made her
statesmen pause in their career-and
very suddenly the talk of sending naval
vessels to the Bosphorus is curtailed; /;
and the inquiry as to the am of the mys-
tShAouo SllhDiid 10 .lalStu III GNcly
British newspaper. What is her mis-
sion? Where did she come from? Will
the Americans allow ships to be fitted
out?Will they sell arms to theautocrat to
be used against the mother OF free gov
ernment? These are questions that are
new. The romantic ship has caused
them to be put in quick succession. And
strangely enough the Americans have a
retort i'll the ready answer, Did you not,
our brothers over the water, sell to Sit
ung Bull and his savage followers rifles
and the implements of war to burn, muir
der and slay without mercy and without
regard TO age or sex? But let us hope
that the romance of war will stop where
1t is and that England will see tue adj
vancement of the world best civilization
in the occupancy of Constantinople by
christian people, and be satisfied will
her present hold upon Egypt and som,
guarantee as to Indiar. possessions.
In the event of a peaceful settlement
which is snowregarded, ,as favorable, the re
mantle incident of American iron steam
ships upon the 4Egean Sea will awake
thoughts that every reader of history an
student of the classics will enterta
