These periodical debates over the Nations
defences are conducted in the main by army
functionaries and military critics employed oy
the London press. The dangers Of the situa-
ton are invariably exaggerated, since the naval
and military resources of the United hlngdom
were never so great as they are now, whiie us
relations to the European Powers were never
better. Before foreign army OF invasion can
eyer land in England the most powerful reet
Of ironclads in the world will have to be de-
stroyed. and the French Navy alone Is to be
dreaded. The real source of weakness In the
event Of a foreign war is seldom referred TO
during these artificial panics. THIS is the pres
ence Of n disconnected population in Ireland
which requires at all times formidable army
for garrison duty. In war with france, uer-
many or Russia it would be necessary 10
strengthen rather than to weaken those garri-
sons. and this diversion Of military strength
vonld he a serious hindrance. The paclfca-
tion Of Ireland by measures which would effect
n complete reconciliation between the races OF
the United Kingdom would be the wlsest pre-
caution that could be taken for the ultimate
defence of the Nation from foreign INVASION
The alarmsts never mention this source OF
weakness when they get on their paint and
start out on the war-path to terrify the old
women of London.

THE ENGLISH W4R PING.

Panics in London over the defenceless state
of the United Kingdom are periodical. chill
of indifference and apathy invariably follows
the fever of agitation; and military croakers,
after publicly exposing the incompetence Of the
War Department functionaries and the penu-
rous economy Of Parliament, retire to their
clubs to lament in secret the degeneracy of the
times. The excitement caused by Lord Wolse-
ley's structures would probably have subsidized
speedily if the Prime Minister had not yielded
to an infrmity Of temper and virtually chal-
lenged him to resign the important Office which
he now holds. Lord Wolseley has always had
body-guard of partisanS at the Horse-Guards,
in Parliament and in the London press.
great outcry has been raised against the Prime
Minister for his sighting illusions to the only
General whom England is supposed to have.
Lord Randolph Churchill has appeared upon
the scene in the capacity Of the candid friend
bent upon making all the mischief he can; and
the agitation promises to last week or two
longer than the usual war scare" One effect
of the sensational disclosures of the London
press is already witnessed in the preparations
of the War Department to adopt immediate
measures for the defence OF the Thames and
to mount two thirty-ton guns on the central
bastion at Sheerness. These precautions with
less retrenchment in the estimates for that
office will probably suffice to rcassure timorous
Englishmen for another half-year; and then
the hot tit viii come on again with the revival

TILE TWO CONTENTIOUS.

Tho Renublicans who meet in Buffalo to-
marrow are to be congratulated. The Demo
crafts who meet in this city to-day are to be
commiserated. The former are to be congratu-
lated because the Republican record in the
public service of New York during the year
commends the party to the confidence OF rep
utable voters The latter are to be COM
miserated because the Democratic record in the
same field during the same time is conspcu-
ously bad.
The Republicans can "point with pride' to
reduced tax rate, to the passage OF such great
reform measures as those that provide for High
License and place safeguards around the rlght
of suffrage. What have Democratic legislators
or n Democratic Executive done to which the
State Convention of their party can point with
bride? Nothing. Governor Hill and his po-
litical friends in the Legislature have refused
TO respect righteous public sentiment in its de-
mand for legislation directed against the great
and growing saloon evil. Democratic Senators
and Assemblymen steadily fought the High
License bill at all its stages, and the Demo-
cratic Governor vetoed it. So, too, Democratic
Senators and Assemblymen were equally hos
tile with few exceptions to the Election Re
form bill. What the Governor will do with
il remains to be seen. But his fragrant dis
regard of the public good and his slayish sub
serviency to the worst elements in the COM
munity which characterized the High-LicenSe
veto forbid the hope that he will approve this
other excellent measure.
Political conventions are accustomed to in
dorse the course pursued in public affairs by
the parties for which they speak. 1t VIII not
embarrass the Buffalo Convention to meet this
obligation. For in standing for practical re-
form the Republicans of the Legislature re-
fected the wishes of the masses of the party
all over the State. But what is the Democratic
Convention going to do about it The metro
politan organs of the Democracy stated yester-
day that the Hill Administration was to be
Endorsed. The friends of President Cleveland
will control the convention. VIII they vote
aye on the question of indcrsing VIGOROUSLY
anti-reform Governors Governor who IS
recognized as the chief champion Of the rum

BRIDGE TRUsTERs GIVE OUT SOME CONTRACTS AND
DISCUSS TERMINAL FACILITIES


What will provo to be the last meeting OF the
present body OF Bridge trustees, II the Governor
signs the bill before him, held yesterday in Brook

President Howell and Engineer Martin with power
contract for tho printing of 100000 Bridge tickets

lowest bidder at 81 $50. The contract for extending
the car platform from Nassaust. and Conc0ld'st, IN
Brooklyn was awarded to the Passaic Rolling MIL
Company for S50,120.

letter of Engineer Wellington, who proposed the circ
lating system which the trustees rejected In which

matter be Investigated. j. Adriance Bush moved 10

Several interesting decisions were handed
down by the Supreme Court yesterday. The

ment- house REFORM Something has been
done already in this direction. On more than
one road running into New-Jersey the pur-
chaser of book Of tickets can ride about ten
miles for ten cents, or cent mile But
workingmcn cannot readily command the
money to buy book or communication ticket.
Wouldn't it pay the railroads to sell them
tickets, say from week to week, at an attractive
figure? Every additional family settled along
the line means more business for the road in
freight as well as passengers.
