What avn Anthem is,

A sailor who had been to a cathedral and
had heard some very fine music was
descanting particularly upon an anthem
which gave him much pleasure. His
shipmate listened for time and then
said:
~ say, Bill, what's a hanthem ?"
"Whatp replied Bill, do you mean to
say you don't know what hanthem is?"

"Well, then, I'll tell yer. If was to

EURopE's GRAND ARMY.
Eighteen Million Soldiers TO Keep the
Peace OF the Continent.

Peace OF the Continent.
Russia, according to the latest fig
ures, has an active army of 1910
officers, 1885, in rank and file,
31S,s52 horses and 3,79I guns. The
reserves Of the Empire consist of
3,041 ,20S in the rank and file, with
51S,s52 horses and 1886 guns. This
is a total Of $4,000 mon. The cav
airy figures do not show the effective
strength of Russia in that arm. She
may easily add half million Of
mounted electives to the number
given above. Take her forces all
through, Russia can mobilize by
spring over three million of men, Of
whom one-third may be valuable as
cavalry or infantry. In the machine
perfection Of staff, administration and
logistics, outside Of cavalry raiding,
Russia will not be equal to Germany.
France, her only possible ally, out
side of Greece and Montenegro, can
place in the field an active army, of
39,527 officers, j, 035,000 in rank and
file, and reserve of 30,070 officers
and ], ,412,000 rank and file, making
total war force of 3,40S, 800 men, Off
cered by T6,497, and having 374, 900
horses and 6,620 guns.
Against this possible array of over
5000, 600 Russian and French soldiers,
of which at least 100000 are re-
ported to be cavalry, backed by 10,-
COG guns or field artillery, Germany
presents an active army of 35,997 off
GERS, 1,212,97 in rank and file, $780,
32S horses and 3,848 guns. Her pres
ent reserves number 16,203 officers,
793,6l4 in rank and file, with 40,340
horses and 576 guns, making a total
of $4,000 officers, 2,023, 1858 rank and
file, 396,06S horses and 4,424 guns.
With the 100000 additional levies
called for by the bill now pending in
the Reichstag, the German imperial
army will number, officers and men,
about 2,S00, 900, with not less than
430, 900 horses and over 5000 guns.
Her allies will bring the following
forces into operations:
Austria-Hungary's army, active
and reserve, numbers 52,200 officers
and 1,S13,000 of rank and file, with
III, ,04S horses and 1000 guns. Italy
can send to the field or mobilize an
army Of 24,70S officers and 2,377, $50
of rank and file, with 81, 400 horses
and $50 guns
This ls a total for Russia and France
Of 100000 officers and S,641 400 rank
and file, 692, ,S52 horses and 10,60f
guns.
For Germany, Italy and Austria,
| Hungary force is shown of 6,214, ,24S
men, with 13709S officers at least
When Gerinany's 100000 new levies
are added it will make an allied force
of 6,914, 243, without officers. There
will be in the three armies $50, LII
horses and CASA guns.
The five powers that it is supposed
may be directly involved will thus be
able to command united forces
amounting ON the side Of Russia and
France to 1900, 900 officers and men
while the three allies opposing them
will have armies Of 100000. There
will be II, 900 guns and at least / 200,
600 horses in the field.
But this is not all. The allies ot
Central Europe may properly count
on Servia and Turkey, and probably
Roumania when the pinch comes
Bulgaria will not be insignificant
either as a make-weight. They will
stand rs follows:

The free trade antics OF the mar
who Was left in charge OF this pa
per during the past week has done a
great deal of good all round.
In their sober senses the Demo
cratas merely argue for a modifica-
ton OF the tariff cnnningly conceal
ing their one real object.
Fill them up with spirituous liquor
and they throw eff the mask.
They no longer urge modi!ica-
tion OF the tariff but make an
absolute free trade holy show OF
themselves.
When the editor OF this paper went
to San Francisco he could think OF
no better way OF showing UP the
free trade theories in the most ri
diculous gu;se than by hiring 4 free
trader 10 run his paper while he
stocked the side board OF the Ssnct
urn with fresh supply OF the rank
est corn juice.
The result exceeded cur most
sanguine expectations.
Between the little brown jug and
the Golden Club Inclinations of the
benighted hireling OF the Democratic
Administration the real feelings OF
the poor unfortunate descendant OF
Annanias were spread before the
readers of the APPEAL in shape that
was well calculated TO make every
Democrat hang their head with
shame and humiliation.
Major Dennis free trade rawlings
in the APPEAL since last Sunday |
have lost his party over so votes in |
Western Nevada.
Another gallon OF bug juice and
two more issues OF the paper would
have wiped out his party entirely.

WASHINGTON LETTER
From our regular correspondent

lFrcra our regular correspondent
WASHINGTON, May 25th. 1855.
"General Phil Sheridan has had
a paralytic stroke" was the terrible
rumor that flew over this city with
tightening rapidity on Wednesday.
Every man you met stopped and
asked with bated breath, have you
heard from 'Little Phil?" Careful
inquiry revealed the TACT that the
gallant little General mad been sick,
but fortunately it WAS nothing very
serious. IL seems that in returning
from his recent trip West he was
four or five DAYS travelling continu-
ally, and it had bad effect upon
his neves, which was aggravated
by q weeks hard work IL his Office
here.
The consequence was that he had
to 90 TO bed. He is now much bet
Ter, and viii probably be out again
in q few DAYS. 1. would have been
quite fattering to the General if he
could have heard the many anxious
inquiries after his health that your
correspondent did on Wednesday
aud Thursday.
When the Mills tariff bill comes
up under the five minute rule, to be
considered by sections which will
probably be next week, the Repub-
leans will endeavor 10 amend it in
many ways. In the mean time tine
Republican leaders hope to agree on
a bill which will he offered as
substitute for the Mills bill, but the
present prospects OF any such
agreement are by no means fatter-
ing.
There will probably be a new
member OF the Cabinet before long,
as the Senate committee on agiicul-
ture has made a favorable report on |
the bill, which has already passed |
the House, to enlarge the duties Of
the Department OF Agriculture and
make it an Executive Department.
The bill, as 1T passed the House,
provided for the transfer OF the
weather bureau to the Department
OF Agriculture. The Senate COM
mittee strcuk that clause out.
The House bill to establish De-
partment OF labor has been passed
by the Senate slightly amended.
Strange as it may appear, it is
true that the question
Of whether tue Fisheries treaty
shall be considered by the Senate
in open or secret sessions has been
made a political one. The ReTub-
iicans voted for open sessions and
The Democrats for secret ones.
The nomination as Mr.. Fuller to
be Chief Justice of the United
States was discussed by the Senate
Judiciary committee at its regular
on Monday, but at the re-
luest Of Senator Ingalls,, action was
postponed.
