Military Odndition of England.
At an agriculturai dinner lateIY, the Earl of
Carnarvon drev the following,-riptiire of the un-
prepared and defenceless condition of England: -
"He said. with regret, and. at the same time
'deliberately, that he believsd the country WAS at
the present moment wholly unprepared, by lead,
to meet the invader. They insured thoir houses,
their crops, their herds, but no one seemed to
anticipate that in one single year, 3, -ea, in a fort-
night, houses, cattle, and. air that was valuable,
might be swept into absolute nothingness, and
yet that was the cOndition to which they must
submit in the .evetit a war.. As regards men,
they were a mere handful. Indeed, they could.
not put a third of the number in line.that Bel
-
gime could. With respect to their reserve forces, •
they were not satisfactorily officered, were
ill-
trauied, and worse armed. There was no stair
instruction among the officers,,110 a,ssembiage for
brigade duty of the men, and there was not a sin-
gle regiment of militia or 'volunteers who pob !eas-
ed a breech -loader, 130 that, if sent to resist al x.1-
liant enemy, they would meet with absokte
butchery and. destruction. Not only were they
disconnected, but they were controlled by separ-
ate acts and •separate regulations. Then as to
their forte, he believed them still to be unfinished,
and in a great measure not properly mounted
with guns, Referring to the Moncrieff, which
could be fixed in such a manner_ as to keep the
gun and gunner completely out of sight, there
Was not one mounted, and as for torpedoes, which
were used with treraenclous effect in the Arneri-
aan War, they had not one in store. Everything
with regard to the maintenance and. supply or
military inipliments was kept in oae single clopot,
and practically undefended in _case of invasion
. -
Not only was _their cavalry lower in strength
than it should be, but the horses, he believed,
would. be insufficient, and many fartoo young;
and would most likely break down in the early
part of & campaign. Speaking -of the defective
organization, ord Carnarvon referred to the want
of preparati n in the Crimean and Abyssinian
Wars, and,,fspoakirg of the :Trent affair, when
troops w re sent to Canada, he said it was not,
perhaps, generally known that absolutely our
troops could:not have marched thi-ough that win-
ter if they had not been supplied with boots
through the kind offices of the Emperor of the
French from the French stores. Again, he knew
a case where it was necessary to organize hastily
a military expedition, and. wherenot one single
cavalry transport could be found."
-
The 'Value of Pans.
• The London Econcen,ist of Oct. 15th, calculates
how much property the defenders of Perla expose
to danger by awaiting a Prussian attack: '
1. The value of the house property inay be ap-
proximately arrived at by an estimate based on
the value of London property, and apportioning
to Paris an amount proportionate to the popula-
tion. London, with a population of 3,500,000,
having a valuation of abeut 27,000,000/., which,
capitalized at about twelve years' purchase, re-
presents a sum of 324,000,0001. , we may reckon
that Paris, with a population of 1,800,000, con-
tains private house property worth about 171,500, -
000/. Deducting ten per cent. as the value of the
ground. rents and unoccupied area, which may be
treated as indestructible, though ground "eats
would fallif Paris were half destroyed, we have
a net sum of 154,350,0001, representing the value
of Parisian buildings which a complete boinbard-
ment and a street defence would annihilate. 2.
On this 1348is we may calculate that an amount
aqual to one-half the value of the buildings will
be invested in furniture or other contents of the
dwellings. In this way we get an estimate of
77,175,000/as the value of furniture awl other
contents of Parisian houses. 3. The value of the
stock-ia-trade in Parisian 'shops and warehouses
will probably be at least one third the aggregate
of the above amounts -another 811331 of 77,175,-
0001. This is a minimuM computation. It ap-
pears frOna the returns of our fire -insurance duty,
when it existed, that the stock -in -trade insured
over the whole of England, was about one-third).
the entire value of the entire property insured,
and as stock -in --trade is disproportionately con-
centrated in large cities, it is safe to reckon in a
city like Paris the proportion of stock -in -trade to
other insurable property will be as great as the
average of•the whole of England. Probably the
estimate is far below the wark, thogh a very
low one would of course be proper just no%‘eon-
sidering the withdrawal of property which Aust
have been going on in expectation of the siege.
These three figures sun. up as follows: 1. Value
of buildings, 154,350,000/. ; 2. Value of furniture
and other contents of dwellings, 77,175,000/, e 3.
Value of stock -in -trade, 77, 175, NW -total 311 -100, 000/. , which we May take as the minimum
-value of private pii-rperty in Paris destructible in
a siege.
Things that I have seen.
. I have seen a fa.rmer build a house so large that
the sheriff turned him out of doors.
I have seen a young man sell a good farm, turn
merchant, and die in at insane asylum.
I have seen a farmer travel about so much
that there was nothing at home worth looking
after.
1 haat, seen a man spend more money in folly
than would support his nattily in comfort and in-
dependence
I have seen a rich man's son begin where his
father left off, and end where his father began -
penniless. -
I have seen a young girl marry a young man
of dissolute habits, and. repent of- it as long as
she lived.
I have seen a man depart from the truth when
• candour and veracity would have served him a
Mach better purpose.
, I have seen the extravagance and folly of chil-
dren bring their parents to poverty and want, and
themselves to disgrace
I have seen a prudent, industrious wife retrieve
the fortunes of a family, when her husband pulled
at the other end of the rope. -
I have aeen a young man who despised the
counsel of the -wise and advice of the good, end
his career in poverty and Wretchedness.
I have seen a man engage in a law suit &but a
trifling affair that cost him more in the end than.
would have roofed all the buildings on the; farm.
Watering Horses.
Horses should. bo watered from a brook, Liond,
or river, and not from wells or springs, s the
water is hard and colder, while the running
stream is soft and rather warm. -The preference
lof horses is for the soft, even though it be mud-
dy water. to that which is hard.- I Horses shoUld
be allowed in summer time at -least four water-
ings a day, and half a bucketful at a Flame, and in
winter a pailful may be allowed morning and
-evenina, which, is sufficient to assuage their thirst
without causing them to bloat or puff up. Care
hoWever, should be taken that the horse is not
put to • wot k immediately afteza drinking a full
bucket of water, especially if required to go fast,
"because digestion and severe exertioa can never
go on together,. and moreover purging is apt to
ensue. fn some oases broken wind or heaves is
thus pre -deiced. Avoid giving warm or tepid
water to horses that are often driven from home
because cold or well -water will then perhaps be
given them, which will be ;liable to produce a
congestive chill; followed by lung fever, and in
some cases colic. When horses are thus carefully,
watered, if one or more of them iihOuld 'refuse
their aecuatomed food, something is wrong, and
they should not -be taken out of the stable to
work, or driven further that day; but an exam-
ination should be 'made as :to the cause with a
view to its removal.
