STRONG AND WEAK POINTS OF THE RAM ALARx.

NEWPORT, II. l.. Sept (Specal).-Commsnd s,
W. b. Hof, U. s. n, continued his lecture on pavJ
tactics this morning. He described some new ana
interesting methods of feet maneuvrng and the psv,
system found great many admirers. 1t was show,
that the ship in turning does not describe circle ana
that screw steamers turn differently. Lieutenant
A. b. Wyckof's new method of determining the ap,I
diameter and drift angle was described In SPEAKING
of the United States ship Alarm, Commander Hoa saN
that she has much to recommend her tacticalIy Ia,
instance, her great facility in turning But THE
quality with any sort of steering propeller must be A
the expense Of speed She will be comparatively safe
from ramming in a single combat, since she can keep
her bow constantly the enemy She will be able 70
ram antagonist htted with a single screw athouxh
of greater speed, she make the chord Of the
segment of circle in turning, where her adyersary
must the circumference on straight course
However, a vessel of apparently less speed csa
overtake the Alarm because Of the fact that her speed
is reduced by the eagerDess with which she answers
her propeller and the consequent reduction In the
length of her forward movement due to the screw
not always setting in the direction Of her keel.
After Commander Hof had concluded this second
portion of his lecture Captain Mahsn, the supeIn-
tendent of the War College, introduced Lieutenant
Tasker II. Bliss. u. s. A. In introducing Lieutenans
Bliss Captain Mahan SAID would like to refer to
the words used by Admiral Luce in his opening
address, and that Is that Lieutenant Bliss has noS
here to teach naval warfare, but that he has
come here to tell of the science Of military tactics
in order that we might learn the differences and By
the conclusions drawn gain and practise thereby
Lieutenant Bliss read a portion of his lecture On
Fighting Tactlcs The first part of the work dwelt
upon infantry tactics and this divided into the
three different branches of elementary tactics grand
tactics and fighting tactics. 1t shown through
pictures drawn from battles in the different Of
the world that tactics is the basis OF the science Of
war. Lieutenant Bliss proved the great uselessness
of the bayOnet and showed that during the Franco
Prussian war only per cent of the French and per
cent of the German wounded had been injured by the

ENGLANDS BALKAN POLICY.

COnstantinOple is no longer looked upon
| as the geographical centre of the British Empire.
! II is barely eight years since Lord Beaconsfcld
sent feet of ironclads through the Oar lal Giles,
| brought few regiments Of Sepoys from Bonn
bay, and threatened to declare war upon Russia
| unless lgnaief's treaty should be laid before
the Powers for revision. The Anglo Tul kish
treaty concluded on the eve of the Congress of
Berlin marked the elimination of Lord Bca-
conSfield's Mahometan policy, to which he had
adhered with resolute courage even when Eng
land was ringing with Mr. Gladstone's dcnun-
citation of the Bulgarian atrocities. The states
man who made the bold stroke Of pure hasng the
khedlves Suez shares never suspected that
Cairo was the true geographical centre Of the
worldwide Empire which it was his highest
ambition to strengthen. He followed the ira
ditional policy Of the Crimcan war and consid-
cred it matter of paramount rmportance-thc
greatest among British interess-that Russia
should be kept out of COnsantinOple. Nencr-
ated as his memory is by the powerful Primrose
League, this cardinal doctrine of his diplomacy
has teen generally abandoned in England.
The present crisis in Bulgaria illustrates this
shifting of English opinlon. by virtue of
Prince AleXander's dethronement Russia re-
gains her influence in the Balkan State, which
since the union of Eastern Rumca has be-
come almost as large as Ignatens Bulgaria.
With a sovereign On the throne devoted TO her
interests and obediently registering the DEGREES
Of the st. Petersburg Foreign Office, Russia will
virtually gain all he advantages which she
hoped to derive from the Treaty of San Stefano.
: he same England which insisted upon the
partition of Bulgaria and the humiliation of
Russia is now content to be an idle spectator.
Journals Of both parties in London remark with
cynical indifference that Austria may be inter
estcd in what is going on III the Balkan. bu,
England is not. Nay, if Austria does not choose
to interfere, Russia may resume at once or at
leisure her march upon Constantinople, and
EnglanSwill not stir For it will be positive
gain TO England, continue these sagacous
journals, if Russia lie allowed to enter Constan-
tinople. 1t Will give that aggressive State so
much employment in Southeastern Europe

tivity in Central Asia. England viii have a

Political affairs are not yet absorbing attention,
the weather is comfortable and, moreover
there will not be another chance to decide the
point for twenty years to come The subject
has been taken up by several Of the political
organizations in New-York and Brooklyn and
the result of their discussions is the firm opinion
that convention ought to be held. They
regard the power Of revising the fundamental
law of the State as a valuable privilege There
is no doubt about that. Whether majority
Of all the men who vote at the general election
this fall will appreciate the privilege, however,
is decidedly doubtful. IL they do not, no con-
