our Navy and the Navy Militia.

Oar Navy and the Navy militia.
Replying to Governor Jackson 8
communication IN reference TO the
Maryland navy, Secretary Tracy
holds that our State navy is not or
ganized as q naval militia in the
manner prescribed by the act Of the
last Congress appropriating money
for the training of State naval mi
litia forces. The Secretary thinks,
however, that Maryland's fishery
force of 108 officers and men would
be excellent material for naval
militia of the character contemplate
ed in the act Of Congress. "1he
great advantages, the Secretary
adds, possessed by Maryland, its
large extent of inclosed waters, the
presence of the United States Naval
Academy at its capital and the num-
Der and character Of the men which
the State has furnished in times
past to the navy, all point to the
fitness of a naval militia. When
ever It is formed the department
will be ready to give it every facili-
ty at its hand" Our Legislature
has only to give the existing force q
proper organization, it appears, to
entitle it to it's proper share of the
$685. appropriated to encourage
the formation of State naval forces.
What advantages are to be derived
from proper organization our Wash
ington correspondent shows in full
detail. The object of Congress is
to familIarize an increased number
of our people with service afoat an
der the conditions that exist aboard
the modern warships. As the
Maryland people have always taken
readily to The naval service IN war
times, our bay is the best possible
field for preparation. San.

subjects as would tend to give an idea of

Mr.. Brown went on to describe the
position OF woman in lands beyond
the reach OF the Bible. particularly
In Japan, China, India, Egypt and
Palestine. He made the following points :
First she is looked upon as an Inferior !:
second, she tolls like a slave; third, she
is kept in seclusion; fourth, her education
Is neglected; fifth, She is not at her own
disposal in marriage; sixth. her life is not
sacred; seventh, her immortality is denied.

illustrated in most thrilling manner by
Mr. Brown, VINO told many anecdotes which
gave force to his discourse and aided in
making it interesting.
