CoastWlse DefenSeS.

Our Atlantic seaboard cities have
begun to perceive that the possibility
Of bonn bardment from the sea is to
be regarded in a practical light. The
New York Chamber Of Commerce
recently passed resolutions calling
upon the Government to increase the
plumber Of its trained artilleryman.
The improvement Of our coast de-
fences by means Of great guns of
modern construction has now made
considerable progress; and the rapid
crowding Of work during the past few
months will soon have resulted in the
completion of large number of these
powerful fortification guns, which
will be put in place at numerous
points along the coast 1t is obvious,
however, that trained men for the
manipulation of these heavy batteries
are quite as requisite as the guns
themselves. Even if the very immi-
nent danger of a war with Spain
should pass away, this country would
have been the permanent gamer by
reason OF the efforts put forth in this
furry OF preparation The safety and
dignity Of the nation demand that
its defenses be modern and ample.
We have no need of huge navy, but
the cause Of peace in the world re-
quires that our navy should be mani
testify efficient, and that it should be
easily stronger than that of any ether
country excepting the two or three
principal naval and colonial powers
Of Europe. With navy consider
ably stronger than we now possess,
we might have dictated peace in
Cuba long ago, without the firing Of
single gun, upon terms which would
have been greatly to the advantage
Of Spain herself, and would have
saved her great cost and misery. A
moderate but progressive increase in
our military and naval strength, to-
gether with defensive preparations
along the coast. will constitute our
best and cheapest insurance against
war, and will rebound in many ways
TO our national advantage.-From

ment. II investigation should con-
firm that theory the Spanish nation
will have proven itself unfit to con-
tinue its present existence and it
would become the duty Of the United
States to wipe the government from
the face Of the earth.
But no good can come from talking
much about what we would or ought
to do until we know whether we have
a grievance. The president and his
advisers may be depended on to make
thorough investigation and to take
whatever steps are necessary to pre-
serve the honor and dignity Of our

many thoughtful attentions 1shown
during her last illness.
She was for many years devout

very constant attendant thereof. Her
departure from this world was peace

like the setting OF the sun.
