BRITAIN'S AMERICAN FLEET..
An Atljflseten That it Is to Be Steengtltcie
ed ,lull Reorganized.
The British Admiralty effleers at
Ilalifax admit that the British fleet in
NortltAmerican waters is to bestrength-
ened and divided into two divisions.
Prom the same source comes the fol-
lowing
eslowing information: At present the
battle ship Renown is lying' in dook at
!Devonport undergoing repairs to her
machinery and bunker ventilators,
wlhloh have been declared to be inade-
quate to supply the bunkers with ven-
tSation. When all defects have been
made good, it was proposed at a re-
cent council at the Admiralty, to send
the ship on a. year's trip around the
world to test her abiility to cope with
the varied exigencies that a vessel of
so enormous displacement will be call-
ed upon to undergo. At the same coun-
cil it was suggested by Sir F. Richard,
the eminent authority on all naval mat-
ters, that in view of the recent trouble
about Venezuela and America's striking
developments in the ship -building line
of late, particularly her fondness for
monster death -dealers, Great Britain
could d ono better than send the Pow-
ereal or the Terrible out on :thissta-
tion for twelve months an experiment,
the battWe ship .to be accompanied by
three torpedo boat destroyers, the Inde-
fatigable and two smaller vessels of the
latest pattern. Sir Frederick's theory
was, that by strengthening the North
American and West Indian squadron,,
they could act in oollaboration with the
South African fleet, or the Pacific
showed occasion arise.
Mr. Austen ChamberAin and 131r.
Robertson, civil lords, very heartily co-
incided"with the naval lord's views. It
may bo remarked that the Powerful's
recent trials .have proved her to be a
magnificent success. Mention was
coiled do no bettor than send the Pow-
erful prove a success out here, the Cres-
cent could stop as senior officer's ship
at Jamaica, to replace the old Urgent,
which should then be utilized as a
coal hulk, something needed,at Port
Royal.
Before another six months have e1-
apsed, the North American and West
Indiauuad
non will
tude tht, will comand attention. It
is asserted here that it will be so aug-
mented as to be able to grabble suc-
cessfully with any threatening attitude
that America may care to assume, By
a recent order -in -council, three torpedo-
boat destroyers are to be attached to
every flagship, one of these greyhounds
to be exclusively at the disposal of the
fleet engineer, to enable that officer to
pay flying official visits to the different
ships in the North American and West
Indian squadron. Tito fleet engineer of
the Crescent may at any moment, be.
called upon to may,
the duties
which such an increase on the station
means. Sir John Fisher is still to lie
retained at the Admiralty, his services
as controller being deemed indispens-
able. Rear -Admiral Compton Doraville
has thready been notified of the pro-
baboeity of his being the successor to
Vice -Admiral Erskine on this station
to act conjointly with another Admiral
to be stationed at the West Indies.
A NOVEL SOCIETY.
These mysterious capital letters,(S.

vention of Hereditary Diseases.' It is
not a medical association, as you world
naturally think, whose members are
bald-headed and wear spectacles and
peep through microscopes on the hunt
for bacilli. Fax from it. The members
are young and marriageable women
who solemnly promise not to become
the wives of men who have any heredi-
tary taint. The first artiole in the
constitution of the S. P. H. D. contains
an obvious truth—" We believe it to be
a crime against society and future gene-
rations for certain persons to marry."

LEGAL WIT.
Interesting Stories About the Noted Lord
`WeRIbttry.
There is always a freshness about
stories of the first Lord Westbury,
even though some of thew may have
been often told and retold. His read-
iness was sever at fault. When a so-
licitor handed bin—then Sir Richard
Bethell—a case in evbich he had ad-
vised years before in a sense directly
opposed to the line he was now taking,
his only remark was: "It is a matter
of astonishment to me that any one
capable of penning such an opinion
should have risen• to the eminence I
have the honor to enjoy." Deco when
arguing before Lord Campbell he was
stopped by that judge with a request
for cases bearing out bis contention.
"112y Lord," he said, "such is the law,
bus as I Have to be elsewhere shortly,
my friend, Mr. Archibald, will quote
the case in support of it." Needless
to say, Mr. Archibald hastily left the
court before his leader. Ons who act-
ed as his junior in a heavy case re-
cords that after stating all the points
in their favour, he asked him to put
anything he thought their opponents
might have to say m reply. Tho junior,
who had studied the case carefully, than
put the opponents' in the best light
be could. Bethell seemed to be listen-
ing intently, so the other at length
said, "So you really think they will say
thet8'' They might say that," re-
woouldBbe." Another remark 02b they
0
a young barrister too eager .to
tinguish himself is applicable to all
time. "I think," said She junior, when
he had finished and they retired for
lunch, "that you have made a strong
irnpression on tlho court." 'I think
so, too," said Bothell; "don't distur •
it."
