\ SMART Englishman-we have not
doubt of his smartness-has written long
letter to an English journal in which he
shows, to his own satisfaction at least, that
in case of a war with the United States
the mother country will be able to turn
her child over her ancient knee and
give US ocular proofs of astronomical the
ories. This paper warrior has no doubt of
the ability of Great Britain to whip US
and then rule Us. According to his idea
of things thus far West, we would be able
10 put in the field only about 100000 men,
These would be undisciplined for the most
part and armed inditierently Compared to
arms Europe supplies to her soldiers), the
South and West would seize the oppor-
tunity to "break away" and leave the Re-
public to fight It's battles, discovered and
weakened by secession. The negroes
would be an element of discord, the Ger
mans among US would not fight against the
British, the Indians, half breeds and squaw
men would take the warpath and our
scalps in revenge for the accumulated
wrongs of century, and then the social
lists, anarchists, communists and labor
organizations would improve their oppor-
tunity, fire our cities, blow up our forts
and play such merry hob that the Eng
iish would have nothing to do but to walk
in and gather up the plunder. This is all
very bad. Our cousin over the water
should have withheld his hand from writ
ing this saddening article to the st. james
Gazete-he should have had mercy, and
not irre;rieyably have destroyed the rest
Of all Americans from this time forward or
until we are able to wall the country in
and cell it to keep the ''blarsted British"
out.

1T is difficult to understand why any
naturalized citizen should ever return to
the country of his nativity without bear
ing with him the official proofs of his
American citizenship. One-half the cases
Of invasion of the rights of our natural
lied citizens abroad is due to neglect to
procure documentary evidences of citizen
ship that, indeed, every one travelling in
foreign country should carry with him.
Here, now, is the case Of young Biesel,
that would not have occurred had the fam
lily taken ordinary precautions. Biesel
and wife came to America about eight
years ago and located in Texas. In due
time the father took out his papers OF
naturalization. His son was but mere
lad, and the act of his father therefore
accrued to his benefit, and he, too, became
an American citizen. When the lad was
is, the family took trip to Germany, the
native land of the head of the house, and
took his boy with him. Just as they were
ABOUT to return, the authorities at Bremen
seized the boy, and informed the father
that the youth must enter the army and
serve his time. The passport Of the father
protected him, but there was none for
young Biesel, and no evidence that hewas
an American citizen, when it would have
been matter of ease for the father to
have procured the necessary official papers
before he left this country. There was no
help for it; the German officials laughed
at the statements of the boys father, and
were deaf to the appeals of his mother.
He was dragged ashore and put to service
in the army, while his father and mother
sailed for this country. As soon as they
arrived here they applied to the Secretary
of State, and correspondence of diplo-
matte character has been opened up on the
subject, the German authorities replying
that if the facts are as they are repre-
sented tob be, the boy shall be released and
sent to his home promptly. When Ger
mans residing in this country, and who
have become American citizens, are so well
aware of the severity OF the German laws
relating to the service exacted in the army,
it is surprising, and more, that any of them
ever return to the old country without car
rying with them the evidences that they
and their sons are entitled to the protec-
tion of the American flag.

She Goes Aground in q storm of Cape

WASHINGTON. June 1Sth.-A dispatch
from Norfolk, Va, says the United States
training ship Constellation is aground a
mile inside of Cape Henry, with the naval
cadets from Annapolis ABOARD. i north
east storm prevails, and the atmosphere is
thick. Assistance has gone to ner relief.
LATER-Intelligence from the Constella-
ton at 1870 o'clock tonight is to the effect
that she is 300 yards from the shore md
drifting in. The Captain Of the Life Saving
Station near Cape Henry, with his crew,
has gotten line TO the ship and has hauled
out the breechss buoy, though no one has
been gotten ashore as yet. The wind, which
was heavy at the time the ship went ashore,
has since quieted down some, and it may
be that the Constellation will not go to
pieces. 1t is thought there is not much
chance that she Will be saved Besides

WASHINGTON, June 1Sth-The Board
composed of Commanders Whiting and NJ.
L. Mentony, Naval Constructor Ira Lutte
and several other specialists detailed to ex-
anime into the condition of the Yantic and
Galena, and report as to W hat is necessary to
fiC them for sea cruise, and also to give an
estimate for the cost of similar ships, recon-
mends that they be reconstructed. The re-
port with reference to the Galena discovers
her to be III q rather serious general condi-
ton.
The hull appears to be in rather favor
able state, but the deck is fairly out OF
gear, being in many places sprung and
bruised. The estimated cost for recon
structior, according 10 the recommenda-
tion, involves 500, 500 The estimated cost
for vessel of the same size and material
is S425 COO The Board does not find the
Yantic in very bad state, some slight de-
fects in small fittings being the only weak
ness. The cost of repairs is Sl4240, and
the estimated cost for vessel Of similar
size and material is S205, GOO.
