thcro wcro many rcforonccs to tho de
fenseless condition of our sea-coast, Sona
tors llawloy, Dawos and Vest woro par
ticularly iutorostotl in tho tnattor, but
nothing was accomplished. 8oa.-coa3t do
fenso has long becu a thomo for discus
sion by Congro33, nnd. a secondary con
sideration of political campaigns. That
nothing has beon dono toward fortifying
tho coast, is, of courso, nttrllmtulilo to our
amicablo forolgn rolnllon? nnd a 301130 of
permanent security iu peace.
Tho Xeto York Ilctahl of recent dato goo3
into tho question of sca-cpast defenses ex
haustively, and its rovclattons will tond to
awaken rubllo Interest lu tho mattor, for
it abundantly demonstrates tho holplcsi
arid exposed condition of cltlo? on tho At
lantic coast. According to tho lhralil an
ordinary iron-clad at Conoy Island could,
without much difficulty, destroy tho city
of Now York, set flro to Brooklyn and
wlpojTcrsoy City from tho map.
"Wherever a shell struck," says tho writer
"it would tear out aerator big onough to
put a houso in; fires wou'.d spring up every
where and bo uncontrollable, and it is not
difficult toimaglno tho horror of tho scone
that would follow." According to Colonel
Jllchlo ofWcat Point, it wilt require fivo
years' time, plenty of monoy and overy fa
cility to iortlfy Now York harbor so that
it would bo defensible.
Tho remedy suzgestcd by military and
naval scientists ia tho establishment of a
flrtt-rato torpedo jysteni, an effective Ileot
and a thorough lino of fortifications along
tho reefs at Sandy Hook. Or courso all
theso preparations for war will require
millions of money, but tho old question re
vives Ilsolf from tho dim and vanishing
past as to whether wo had bettor innko sen
sible appropriations for defense or givo
millions of money away iu arbitration that
is becoming moro and moro antagonistic to
American rights and interest.
In tho moantimo it is lntero3tinx to noto
thnt Washington, tho Nation's Ciplttl, is
even moro dofcnselc3s than Now York.
There would bo small objtaclo to tho pas
sage of a forolgn war vessel up tho Poto
mac. Fort Footo I133 beon dismantled;
Fort Washington is a uucoso-box that could
4pobitoTated by tho first llro of a 3logo
gun'. And thoro is little doubt that Wash
ington could bo laid in ruins beforo any ef
fective opposition could bo interposed. It is
Ecaiccly creditable to a great power that
such an attack is possible, and It would
rccin to bo tho part of common wisdom for
Congress to grapplo with tho problom at its
nest session, if not lu tho interest of Now
York, at least for tho protection of tho Na
tion's Capital.
Sir. Gladstone SiiVliilueil.
Tho majority of 22 votos which Mr.
Gladstono received ycslorday lu tho Houso
of Commons was a victory of no common
order. True, " 'twas not so wido as a
church door, nor as deep as a woll, but
'twas enough," for it vindicated Mr. Glad
stone's policy whatever that is ami ex
pressed tho general confldenco in his ability
to tako caro of tbo Government.
Tho voting of tho $53,000,000 of credit, at
n tlino when tho British Nation was enthu
siastically iu favor of war and whon it be
Hovcd tbo voto of credit signified a collision
of nrms with Russia, was regarded as a
triumph for Gladstono, for ho thoroby
obtained an appropriation for his expensive
failure in tho Soudan. How much greater,
therefore, was tho victory of last night,
when all hopes of war with fiusita had
vanished and when public sontlmcnt had a
strong Huspicion that "English honor'' had
been covenanted away in tho terms of
peace.
It is impossiblo to considor Gladstono in
any other light than that of tho most ac
complished diplomat and .statesman of tho
ago. Thcro nro no Mm rosea about him ;
no jingo policy; no cant; no hypscrisy;
no identification with tho party wbloh
fights great battles in tho safe covort of tbo
club and plana magnificent campaigns on tho
stock exchange. Gladstono knows that
tho common pcoplo, who pay most of tho
taxes, must fight tho real battles. IIo Is
ablo to sco through tho cigar smoko and
champagne mists into tho small homo nnd
farm houses of Great Britain, and ho knows
what war means to tho massos.
No wonder ho Is willing to strain English
honor to tho utmost In behalf of tho pco
plo who aro opposed to war, but who, In
tho event of a collision, are expected to do
tho fighting.
Glndstor.o is a patriot as well as a diplo
mat and statesman.

Commissioner Colman of tho Depart
ment of Agriculture has unearthed tho fact
that his predecessor, Dr. Lorlng, causod
over $100,000 to bo oxpended in seeds dur
ing tho last nlno months of his administra
tion, a largo proportion of tho monoy
having beon paid out for soods that woro
worthless and tho remainder wasted In ox
tiavagaut payments.
It is alleged that 1,700 bushels of sor
ghum seed wcro purchased of a Now York
firm lor $2.35 to $2.0.") a busbol, whllo 300
bushels of tho same variety woro purchasol
of u Western man at $1 a bushel, und tbo
chemist of tbo Department says tho seal
could bavo been purchased In Nebraska -it
26 cents a bushel. In addition, tho ohomUt
declares that tho purchaso of any sorghum
seed nt all was uuncccssary and without
reason,
It was high tlraoforacbango In tho Com
mlssloncrsbip of Agriculture,
If Dr, Loriug was luiposod upon by do
signing mon, it was tlmu to liavo a com
missioner whoso practical knowlodgo and
vigilant caro would prevent such imposi
tion, If Dr. Loriug was betrayod by his sub
erdlnatw, it was time to geta commissioner
f
whoso activity nnd porsonal supervision
would ho a constant bar to such hotrayal.
Thopeoplofcol assured thatCommlsslonor
Column will banish tho hangors-on, scrapo
off tho barnacles, bounco tho speculators
and turn out tho rascals, so that tho
farmers, tho stock-ralsors, tho frult-growor
and dairymen may como to regard this
bureau as tho auxiliary to their interests,
which It was originally Intended to bo

Tho robbory of a stranger iu Lafayotto
Sqnaro last night should call tho rcnowod
attention of tho proper authorities to tho
fact that tho fenco surrounding tho square
is nothing but a wall that shuts in all
sorts of devilment at night, and shut? out
all clinnco of punishment.
As It is hold that legislation is uccos
sary, plans should ho laid at onco for cap
turing it immediately upon tho assembling
of Congress,
It Is rntber a startling clrcumstanco that
highwaymen can ply tholr avocatlou within
n, stone's throw of tho Whlto IIouso on a
Government reservation In tho vciy contro
of a great city.
High and ungainly fences surrounding
a public park aro but rolics of an carllor
civilization, when moro attention" wasglvon
to tho erection of restrictions against va
grant nnd predatory llvo stcck than to tho
question of (esthetic adommout. Tho
fences around Lafayctto Square and Frank
lin Square should comedown, so that "tho
light of heaven may shlno In." At prosont
they aro defaccmontsby day and mnn-trapi
by night.
Tjir.RK should bo no dolay in carrying
cut tho practical suggestions of Health
Officer Towusbend ns to tho host means of
guardlngour wator supply from unwholo
tomo impurities. Tho Immcdiato dangor
is not great and thoro is no causo for public
alarm. All that Is ucoded Is to tako tho
piopcr precautions against contingonclo3
thnt through neglect or carelessness might
arise. Tho reports first circulated woro of an
cxtremoly sensational and oxaggoratod char
acter, but tho views of Dr. Townshcnd, who
thoroughly understands tho situation, do
serve prompt attention.
There is nothing vaguo in tho idoas or tho
Manchester Union concerning clvil-sorvlco
reform. Our esteemed Now Hampshire
contemporary ovidontly docs not bollovo in
"whipping tbo devil around tho stump."
"Let it ho distinctly understood," it says,
"that it bolongs to Democrats to conduct a
Democratic administration ; that no rem

specious, always, of course, lccogniziug tbo
tuprtmacyof tho law so farnslt actually
covets certain clerical nnd other offices."
Ir alt, medical authorities aro correct In
saying that at least ono-thlrd tho deaths
cccurring duriug a cholorn opldomlc uro oc
casioned by fright, is it wiso public policy
to ptcclpltato tho peoplo into tho very thing
they arc cautioned to avoid? Tho modical
and chlrurgical faculty f Baltimore flatly
announco that cholera is coming; that
quarantines aio of little bonctit; that no
gcutrnl diet is prevcutivo, hut that cleanli
ness iu every respect is tho most potont
saftgunid. Tho learned faculty do not
even givo hnpo that cholera may not como
