Our Defenders.

Tux Northwest Rebellion showed that

was more millions of miles away from home| our militia force is of great practical

than you could calealate if all your life you | did nothing but caleulate. You know what | it is to be homesick even amid pleasurable

surroundings ; but Christ slept in huts,

and he was a-thirat, and he was

a-hungered, and he was all the way from | being born in another man’s barn to being buried in another man’s grave. I have , read how the Swiss, when they are far away from their native country, at the sound of their national air get so homesick that they fall into melancholy, and sometimes they die under the homesickness. Bat oh, the homesickness of Christ! Poverty, home- sick for celestial riches. Persecution, homesick for hosanna, Weariness, home- sick for rest. Homesick for angelic and archangelic companionship. Homesick to go out of the night, and the storm, and the world’s execration, and all that homesick- nes saffered to get us home !

At our best estate we are only pilgrims and strangers here. *‘Heaven is our home.” Death will never knock at the door of that mansion, andin ali that country there is nota single grave. How glad parents are in holiday times to gather their children howe again. But [ have noticed that there ia almost always a son or a daughter absent |

—*Dsent from home, p:rhaps absent from the counotry, perhaps ab:eat from the world. Qh, how giad eur Heavenlv Father wil bo when he gets all bis ‘deen home with him in Heaven ! And how doelightfal it will ba for ra to meet after long separatioa! Once they

parted at the door of the tomb; now they meet at the door of immor tality. One» they saw only through a glass darkly, now it is face to face; corrup- tion, incorraption; mortality, immortality Where are now all their gins and sorrows and troubles? Overwhelmed in the Rad

throues of dominion do not stir my soul 5 much as the thought uf home. Once there, lot earthly sorrows howl iike storms aud rol! like seas, Home! Lot thrones rot aod empires wither, Homo! Lot the world die in earthquake struggle, and be burisd amid procession of plavets and dirge of spheres. flome! Let everiasting ages roll irresistible sweep. Home! No sor- row, no crying, no tears, nodeath. But home, sweet home; home, beautiful home;

value; and the interest of the public in it has consequently been stimulated. The Deputy Minister of the Militia Department reports that the amount of money expended upon the force in the

| last fiseal year was $1,003,139.78 ; and

says that, judging from the numerous requests from the different parts of the Dominion for permission to form new corps, “the Militia system is evidently as popular as ever.”

General Middleton, in his report, re- views the force, ang while remarking favorably on its present efficiency, makes a number of suggestions for its improve- ment.

He urges the strong necessity that, is his opinion, exists for ‘reducing the strength of the force,” and of drilling each raral regimeit every year; and says that,—

“This can be more easily done now, as there are regimeats jand orps which, from various

reasons, it is not advisable to keep -on the strength, and I am convinced that the money

| saved by this reduction will be much more profit-

aly employed in drilling the other regiments every year, and in increasing the strength of the permanent Corps, even more than [ have already recommended in a former part of tais Report.

“This alone would bea saving in case of any other such trouble arising as the country has just gone through so successfully, and if, unhappily, European troubles should arise,in which Great Britain is involved, and consequently her Colo- nies, this country, possessing an appreciable but smail force of regular troops, with the ‘rest of her Militia fairly well drilled and well organized, would have no difficuity in turning out a contin- gent of say 10,000 or 15,000 men, that I venture to say would be second to none in the world, with a reserve of nearly double that number, which, in a few Months would be ready to —_ the first line should it be necessary. Iam by no means in- clined to think littie of rural corps. There is no doubt that as far as drill goes the city corps Inust have an advantage over the rural regiments, for many reasons, but the material of the rank and file of the latter is, perhaps, superior to that of the former, and deserves more care in their train- ing than they are able to obtain under the present system.”

He advises that weapons as good as} those used by the armies of Europe be obtained, and that care be taken to thoroughly instract the men in the use of them. Regarding artillery practice he says :

“I cannot but think that too much stress is laid apon the shifting of ordinance, and too much

time taken up in protecting it, while too little at- tention is paid to the actuai firing and working of

everlasting home; home with each other; | the gans. When circumstances will admit of it,

home with angels; home with God. One night lying va my fouage, when very tired, my children all around about

garrison artillery should be practised in firing at

a moving object in the water.” Then, with regard to the rifle associ-

uraded for their six-hour task for the Gzowski cngineer Competition. They undertook a 2-Gun Field Battery. Though short of the number of men ordinarily allowed, and deficient in even picks and shovels, the work was most satisfac- torily completed in a thoroughly workmanlike manner, well within the time allowed,

* The supervision of work was well carried out, both by Officers and Non-Commissioned Ofticers. All ranks worked intelligently and well, and the Company well deserve the first prize they have been awarded in the Engineer competition.

* The Company books, roll of attendances at drill and subjects taught, and list of tools and materials on charge, were well kept and properly

osted up to date. Two large scale drawings of

cidges, for purposes of instruction, had been very well executed by one of the Non-Commissioned Officers.

ave seen the ground, and a portion of it is very suitable for an Kngineer Drill Ground. I trust the proposed purchase may be sanctioned. Regular weekly instruction is now being carried on in the Company, and it will be impossible to obtain full advantage from the instruction unless a place is available where they can execute full sized Engineer work, and where works can be left standing for some time.”

Regarding the Charloitetown Garrison Artillery, Leut-Col, Irvine reports :

“Although unfortortunately limited in strength these Barteries fully maintained their former efticiency.**

As to the Battery at Georgetewn, he says :

“This Battery is not up to the average standard of etticiency, owing to the want of qualified in- structors and the reported difficulty of retaining the men for any length of time in the Corps,"

lo the credits awarded, each Garrison Battery for general efficiency, the total! number of points attainable is 129. We notice that Capt. Moore’s No. 2 Battery stands first with a total of 108, the Toronto Battery seeond with 101, Capt. Passmore’s third with 94, while the rest of the fieid are distanced and scatterifig. As to the drill shed in Charlottetown, Lt.-Col. McShane reported that he has “requested the Brigade Major to for- ward estimates for some needed “repairs to the frout sill of the Drill Shed, also for some interior alterations and the painting of at least the front of the building which gets the worst of the weather. At present it looks rather dis- reputable.”

—It is reported that the Rev. W. R. Frame has assumed editorial charge of the Protestant Union, and that the tone of the paper will be ©» completely changed, Protestants, at least, we are sure, be glad of this; for the paper has been a disgrace to its name. We bave no doubt that a good, religious, well- managed Protestant journal discussing politics fairly,from a moral and not from a party point of view, will succeed in this Province. Mr. Frame, though not a trained journalist, is a ready writer, and stands high in the opinion of Pro- testants, and we trust that his strength will prove sufficient to enable him :to raise the Union out of the dirt, and place it in a good position.
