CAVALRY,
The Proper Function In Battle of This
Arm of the Service.

The mobility of cavalry gives il it's
power. IT must be here, there and any
| where, not only before battle, but dur
ing and after it.
AS information as to the enemy is of
more importance TO the commander-i
chief than ever before, the cavalry must
be able to furnish all that is necessary
and at the same time keep up a screen
against the enemy's scouts and patrols.
To see and not be seen" is as impor-
tant before battle as during it's prog
ress, and after the battle, TOO, If the
best results are expected from a vic
tory. 1t is already required that artil-
lery be attached to cavalry; If, I'm addi-
tion 10 this. the cavalry is armed with
a long range carbine, which il knows
how to use, the supporting column of
light infantry, usually attached for i'm
portant expeditions may be left behind
with gain Of mobility. This recon
nossance work is of the utmost impor-
tance, and the proper performance of
1t will bring more credit to the arm
and be of more Importance to the com
mander-in-chie than anything else
that IL can do.
1t has been noted that all artillery

China continue to increase, although
those OF other countries decrease. The
document in question is a large volume
of nearly 1000 pages, and contains re-
ports from the customs officials of all
the ports of China, and also "A general
statement from the Statistical Secre-
tary of the Chinese customs service. Mr..

The strong, even demonstrative, spirit
OF the Republican district conventions
yesterday is significant of the temper
of the times newly awakened TO public
concerns by the extraordinary magni-
tude to which the events Of the past
summer have developed them. Con-
sidering that the conventions avowedly
of their political favor and confidence,
that from the Democratic party no sort
of contest is expected and that this is
additionally an Off year, the enthu-
siasm of the gatherings was immensely
gratifying and would have been sur
prising but for the unusual circum-
stances that have revolutionized politi-
cal precedents and upset the normal
trend of public movements. our nation
is entering upon new era. In future
history the spirit of '9s" will be re-
ferred TO as today are fixed i'm history
the spirit of '76' and the spirit of
'6l.' We live at the period of one of
those great strides which mark with
especial emphasis the progress OF ma
tions. Mighty events wholly unfore-
seen when the national Republican
convention last assembled are already
historical. An issue of almost unparal-
leled importance in all the life of our
country has grown in a summer day
and demands prompt solution, such a
solution as the generations to follow
will endorse as the work OF the fathers
OF independence and the sacrifice OF the
Civil War are endorsed. No ordinary
political factors count. They are over
whelmed by the mighty movement
which has been set up by power be-
yond the control of political organiza-
tion and political prophecy to deter
mine. To recognize this movement is
the highest public duty. To rise TO il
is the most evident political expediency.
And as has occurred before at about
every epoch I'm our history While the |
Democratic party halts and shufies in
bewilderment and is lost i'm the whirl. |
the Republican party rises TO the grand |
occasion and puts spurs to destiny.

SOME POINTS ON BURGLARS.

taker says Mr. j. Holt Schooling I'm the

burglar inviting him to have some of
the bottled stout and cigars which L

ing him that all valuables have been
removed. The notice also contains

In regard to the means Of gaining
admittance statistics show that the
window is by far the most favored way
OF entry, and that the proportion OF
each mode Of entry per one hundred
burglaries is:
BY window ow................12 per cent.
by door or fanlight.........l9 per cent.
BY false ey................ per cent.
BY area grating. etc.........2 per cent.
These records, which are not without
interest to peaceable citizens, show
very plainly the necessity OF seeing that
the windows are securely fastened be-
