CONGRESS refused to appropriate but
$l75, 900 for Our seaboard Notifications,
while the army engineers estimated that 49,
O00, goo was needed. The sum appropria-
ted will barely preserve the work against the,
ravages of time. Gen. McCook, representa-
tive from New York city, commended that
this meagre appropriation was foolish econ
omy. No country, he said, was SO exposed
to attack as ours. British war vessals could
come from Halifax to New York ia few
hours, and the vessels of Spain could in
very short time reach Key West, New York
or New Orleans. These nations were al
ways ready for war. 1T would not do, said
Gen McCook, ito trust to luck and to the
inventive genius.of our people as a defense
against our foreign foes. In these days
wars are fought quickly and the question at
issue is settled in few months. Our navy
is utterly inadequate and our forts are use
less. In ten days from declaration OF war
the British could be riding in our harbors.
Our great cities are at the mercy of foreign
enemies" The argument on tho other side,
in brief, is that usually used against large
standing army.

The Hawaiin Earthquake of 1887 Described
for the First Time by an Eye Witness:
From Missionary Coan's New Book.
On the 7th of November, 1887, at he
hour of evening prayers, we were stlled
by a heavy thud and sudden jar of the
earth. The sound was like the fall OF some
vast body upon the beach, and in a few Sec
onds the noise of mingled voices rising for
mile along the shore thrilled us like the
wall of doom. Instantly this wa5 followed
by a like wall from all the native houses
around us. Immediately ran down to the
sea, where scene of wild ruin was spread
out before me, the sea, moved by an unseen
gantic wave. and this wave, rushing in with
the speed of race horse, had fallen upor.
the shore. sweeping everything not more
than fifteen or twenty feet above high water:
into indiscriminate ruin. Houses, fu.ni-
ture, fuel, timber, canoes, food, clothing
everything foated wild upon the food
About two hundred people, from the old
man and woman of threescore years and ten
to the new born infant, stripped of their
earthly all were struggling in the tumultu-
GUS waves.
So sudden and unexpected was tie ca
tastrophe that the people along the STORE
were literally eating and drinking" and
thew knew not until the food came and
swept them all away" The harbor was full
of s,rugslers calling for help, while frantic
parents and children. wives and husbands
ran to and fro along the beach seeking for
their lost ones. As wave after wave came
in and retired the strugglers were brought
near the shore, where the more vigorous
landed with desperate efforts and the weak
er and exhausted were carried back upon
the letrealing wave, some to sink and
rise no more till the noise of Judgment wskes
them.
