The Lond0n Post protests strongly
against building any more iron-clads.
1t cnumerates the disadvantages en-
tailed on the British navy by the appli-
cations Of armOr plates to the sides or
batteries of lnc-of. battle Cor iighting)
ships as follows: /. The expense of
iron or steel armOr adequate to resist
the ever increasing power Of artillery
is simply monstrous. =. All fire from
shpboard is known to be more or less
inaccurate, and the chances Of ship
being struck in vital part are very
small indeed. 3. But if the armor-
plating of II ships battery or turrct be
struck, and if it he not wholly impcr-
yous to the shell striking it, the effect
of the blow is enhanced, and the
shield actually becomes an instrument
for rendering the blow more deadly
to the gunncrs behind it. 4. A ship
has certain tonnage displacement,
according to which her weights have
to be arranged. Hence, every ounce
of armor weight decreases the gun
weight or coal weight that she can
carry. 8. Iron-clad tightening ships
are necessarily of such prodigious
size that to possess a numerous navy
and to conduct great naval war on
tho principles that must he followed
if we are to maintain dominant posi-
ton on the scas-that is, rs war of
aggression -isa financial impossibility.
6. 1t is almost certain that the bulk
of the educated naval opinion of the
present day favors the view that the
skillful use of the ram will be the
guiding obicctin future naval engage
monts. Now, modern iron-clad is
about as handy an instrument for use
in ramming mancuvcrs as well. let
us say an old COW at pump. I. Next
to the ram the torpedo, or torpedo

naval fighting weapon. But an enor-

SpeCtacular Weddings.

Men must be acquitted of the re-
spousibility for the noisy, spectacular
weddings which are so common in
every American city in these days, es-
pecially in the metropolis, writes a
correspondent to The Louisville Cour.
ier-JOurndl.
Women are to blame for these, and it
is strange how many sensible, refined,
well-bred women-so considered-are
willing to lend themselves to a GUS
tom that good sense, refinement, and
breeding should never sanction. The
reason is that they see but one side of
the thing-thc side of demonstrative-
ness and display. They so love and
honor marriage that they believe it
can not be too richly and grandly cele-
brated. Each wedding to them is
ideal, and they imbue it with the light
and color of Imagination. They loose
sight of the bride and groom in the
rights that are observed, fancying,
perhaps, that If the rites are splendid
the connubial feature will be fair-that
what begins well, as they regard it,
must end well. As women incline to
superstition thoy are probably supersti-
tious about weddings. They may
hope to conciliate the deities that pre-
side over wedlock by the pomp of its
commemoration. The other side, the
fitness or untitness of the couple for the
new condition, their temperamental
harmony or disharmony, the serious.
ness, even the solemnlty, of the occa-
sion, Its proper privacy, the natural
unwillingness oil q sensitive pair to
proclaim their happiness before they
have had any opportunity to test, It,
none of this occurs to them. Allthe
finer considerations of the blendingiof
lives, of the grave accountability as
sumed, of the hazard undertaken, of
the numbcrless chances against any
single couple setting out on so perilous
journey are wholly Ignored. If they
were not who would have the termeri-
ty to chant peans Of victory before the
battle had commenced

General Grants Peril.

The latest rumor regarding Gen.
Grant is that he is suffering from a
swelling of the tongue that threatens
to develop into cancer. 1t will bo
remembered that the late Senator Hill.
of Georgia, suffered from this terrible
malady. Gen. Grants family physi-
clan, DR.. Fordyce Barker, was asked,
recently, if the report is true, and said:
"Well.I won't say whether there is
danger of a cancer or not | can not
state, either, whether the trouble was
caused by smoking, but Douglass and
l thought that the smoking irritated 1t
and made it worse. BY the use Of tho
new local anesthetic, muriate OF
cocaine, the pain of the tissues has
been greatly controlled and the whole
appearance as to swelling and to red
ness has improved. / can not say
about the similarity of the generals
case to that Of Senator Hill, because l
do not remember what Senator Hilrs
trouble was"

Crime and Liduor In New York.

New York, by the census of 1880,
had 1880 prisoners, 1927 paupers,
and it is estimated that the proportion
of the criminal population at present
in custody of the State is one-fifth of
the entire class, which gives us the
appalling showing, in population of
5000, 900, of 5000 persons directly or
indirectly interested in the success Of
criminal practices, preying upon pro.
perty, endangering human life, and
communicating society. All Of which
is due to whisky and beer. The amount
of money expended by drunkards and
tipplers in the State of New York
yields a profit every year greater than
The total savings Of all the savings

furnish the data wanted. Memphis
