Captain Edward Pellister thus writes to the London Morning Post: “It is usual when a couutry expects war with a brave, powerfel and somewhut tn- scrupulous enemy, to seek alliance with Other powers, to subsidise them, in- crease their naval and wilitary estab- lishments, and in fact, put forth every re- sources to secure not only their good will, but the greatest fighting power ‘He’s been longer than he expected,’ possible.

The ‘ Aye, they’d have a deal to say to one another,’ said Seth, ‘and the meeting ’ud touch ’em both pretty closish. Why ite getting on toward eight year since they parted.’ ‘Yes,’ said Dinah, ‘ Adam was greatly moved this morning atthe thought of the change he should see in the poor young man, from the sickness he had undergone, as well as the years which have changed us all, And the death of the poor wanderer, when she was coming back to us, has seen sorrow, upon sorrow,’ ‘See, Addy,’ said Seth, lowering the question is, what can now be done on those lines? Where is the power pre- pared to assist England in a life or death struggle with a powerful toe? I fail to see any outside the empire, and what is more, I do not regret it. Have we not Canada, Australia, and India to back us? All they require is for England not to hesitate, but to take action towards them as she would take action towards the Turks—viz., to subsidise them and help them to put forth all their strength. I am not beating the air. My letter, which appeared in the Morning Post of the 7th ult., on the Canadian Militia Act, proved that the Can- adiaus have carefully prepared the ground for England to act, and there should be no shyness or false modesty on the part of the latter. To commence with, England might at once form a Canadian navy out of the 40,000 splendid seamen of Canada. She should also raise six regiments of Canadian guards and rifles. It should be remembered that such a steamer as the Oregon, now ‘ there’s father coming—at the far stile.’ Dinah hastened her steps, and little Lis- beth ran on at her utmost speed til] she clasped her father’s leg. Adam patted her head and lifted her up to kiss her, but Dinah could see the marks of agitation on his face as she approached him, and he her arm within his in silence. ‘Well, youngster, must I take you?’ he said, trying to smile, when Addy stretched out his arms ready, with the usnal base- ness of infancy, to give up his uncle Seth at once now there was rarer patronage at hand. ‘It’s cut me a good deal, Dinah,’ Adam — pus r said at last, when they were walking on, an English cruiser, could run from ‘Did’st find him greatly altered? said} Plymouth to Quebec in eight days ; and Dinah, ‘Why, he’s altered and yet not altered. I should ha’ known him anywhere, But, his color’s changed, and he looks sadly. However, the doctors say he’ll soon be set right in his own country air. He’s all sound in th’ inside; it’s only the fever shattering him so. But he speaks just the same, and siniles at me just as he did when he .was alad. It’s wonderful how he’s always! had just the same sort o’ look when he smiles,’ ‘I’ve never seen him smile, poor young man, said Dinah. * But thee will see him smile to-morrow,’ said Adam. ‘He asked after thee the first thing when he began to come round, and we could talk to cne another. ‘I hope she isn't altered,’ he said. ‘I remember her face so well.’ ‘I told him no,’ Adam continued, looking fondly atthe eyes that were turned up to- ward his,’ ‘only a bit plumper, as thee’dst a right to be after seven years. ‘I may come and see her to-morrow, mayn’t { /’ he said ; ‘I long to tell her how I’ve thought of her all these years,’ ‘Did’st tell him I’d always used the watch?’ said Dinah, ‘Aye; and he talked a deal about thee, for he says he never saw a woman a bit like thee. ‘I ehall turn Methodist some day,’ he said, ‘when she preaches out of doors, and go to hear her.’ And I said, ‘Nay, sir, youcan’t do that, for conference has forbid women preaching, and she's given it up, all buttalking to the people a bit in their houses. ‘Ah !’ said Seth, who could not repress a that by the great strategic railway the troops, guns, aud stores carried wc .ld be delivered at the admiralty dock- yard in the Pacific in six days more. Let this be compared with the time it now takes to get our Pacific dock and coaling station. This railway, con- structed at such enormous cast to Can- ada, runs throughout the British terri tory, and will be completed next August, I believe a greet war will beat the British Empire into a compact and most power- ful alliance for defence ou true military and naval principles. As it is, there is much to be dove. I repeat, action is required. Do not let us wait till the storm is at its height to commence what ought to be now in course of active ar- rangement,’ ot. 5iuie 2 @ee Saysan Upper Canadian exchange: That target practice will develop good shote for active service notwithstanding its manifest imperfections, is shown by the promineut notice taken of the skill of the Mitchell Brothers at Batouche.
