The following story Of Christian
courage is told in the Christian:
When, as brigadier-general, Gin
ton b. Fisk was in command of the
military district of ST. Louis, it became
his duty, on one occasion, officially to
receive and welcome to that city an
eminent maj general, coming to take
command of the military department.
General Fisk, accompanied by an aid
de-camp, met his commander on the
east side of the rIver-there was no
bridge then-and escorted him with
his aid-de-camp across the river by fer
ry and to the hotel i'm which he had en-
gagged suite OF rooms.
AS so as they were within the par
lor-at once assuming the place of host
and ready to treat the Other officers as
his guests-the major-gcneral ordered
a servant to bring four whiskev pun
ches.
"Only three, if You please, general,
excuse me-" promptly and courteously
spake General Fisk.
you'll not refuse To drink with me
will you?" SAID The superior officer.
IF | should drink now. it would be
the first time You would not advise
me 20 begin now. would YOU, general?'
mo; God bless YOU! Long may you
live" Was the gracious and gallant
response.

Just What We Need.

The Americans, with the position
they assume in the world as protectors
of two continents, need a fleet as large
as that of France, and an army of 50,-
900 men so over-officered in all grades,
and SO over-supplied with artillery, en-
gineers and transport, that it can be
expanded at q month's notice with
trained reservists to 10000 men. This
is by no means large fleet for so pow
erful state as the union, seated on two
great oceans, with an immense length
of coast, and with a policy and aspira-
tions which can be fulfilled only by
strength at sea. 1t is very small
army in proportion to population, hard
ly more than one-half of what Great
Britain thinks Indispensable, after
Striking out of the account the force
she maintains in India and the colonies.
