 LAUD OUR NAVY
Even the Saturday Review Likens American Seamen to Those Who
 Fought With Nelson.

LONDON, July 9.-1he weekly news papers to-day, in discussing the war, all pay glowing tributes to the American navy. Even the Saturday Review says:
 It Is impossible not to feel certain pride In the achievements of men of our own race. Every Englishman, too, will remember that it was the possession of this same quality, the fine craftsmanship which the Americans displayed, which gave us victories both on land and sea, from Crecy to the Crimea, and something peculiar and noble happened in this fight which showed in a far higher way the kinship between the two peoples. Don't cheer" shouted Captain Philip, the poor devils are dying" It seems to us that this expression of tender. sympathetic humanity is just as fine as the Kiss me. Hardy" of the dying Nelson.
 The Spectator. In long article on the same subject, says: The first thought of all Englishmen is that the American fleet did it's work splendidly. The whole per- formance of Admiral Sampsons fleet was In accordance with the best traditions of Anglo-Saxon navies, and every English man has read of the doings with a flush of pride. There was the same old, hard pounding as the Elizabethan seadogs used; the same curious mixture of stead mess, daring, coolness and reckless dash The moral aspect of what was almost the first and what may be the last fleet action between the Spanish and English races is very much alike In both cases 1t was the man behind the gun swho, in the last resort, won the battle.
 The battle shows that the American navy is most efficient fighting machine. We did not need to be told that here. We knew 1t already and realized of what stuff the Hons whelps are made. They however. did not know 1t on the Conti-
