Auxiliary Seaboard Garrisons.

We are glad to hear that the project of
adding two companies OF heavy artillery to
the National Guard Of this State. with IL
view to training them for duty in the de-
fences OF New York harbor. has been re-
vivcd. The plan was started last year, I'M
der tho favor of both State and national au-
thorities. Governor HILL warmly approved
II. and Secretary PRocrOE in his annual re-
port declared that " one OF the most useful
directions which can he given to tho drill
and training OF tho militia OF the seaboard
States Is in connection with coast dcfenccs
where Its services are most likely to be
needed. IL at ALL"
Indeed, when we reflect that the chief
danger this country has to fear from II
foreign enemy Is the bombardment OF its
ooastwise cities, it is surprising that our
meagre scaboard Garrisons were not long

serves. A million armed and trained
volunteers. even could they be Instant

The Government must build a railroad

at least two through lines. ono running duo

Soon after 8 o'clock last evening, as
Charles o. Hall and Everett Lamson were

They carried him to the drug store OF

He did not know how he was injured,

OF the delightful programme which was
rendered in Music Hall under his direc-
