m ghc gnttB g-strofcm. ASTORIA. OHEGON: AVEDNKSDAY.l. AUGUSTS 18S2Jthc United States suddenly swept . - 4.F. llALLORA.V Xdltor i j ! The National (Juanl. i feeling that with the small army . of the United State theie should '. TtiTM.T- ;c Cott;. ; . tirirr'ize to its full extent the criminal! be a much better organired ma-,of litia or national guard in .the different states than is at present 'existing. General Benet, of the ordnance corps, proposes the plan of having a large militia force as sembled for a proper, length of time in each year, at convenient points in the various state. These camps to have instructors detailed from among the oflicers of the regular army, and the forces thus concentrated to be drilled and dis ciplined as far as practicable from the school of the soldier, to brig ade movements. That the United States should furnish the amnni tion and camping supplies and pa the oflicers and men during the time employed, in the same man ner as those of the regular army, lie set forth at porno length the ad vantages that would thus be de rived to tlie general government. In any sudden omergenc' there would not be months of delay necessary for preparation, as was the case at the outbreak of the le bellion. "With a foreign enemy this would be hazardous in the ex treme. "With a property trained and organized militia, serviceable regiments could be speedily thrown forward to exposed or threatened points of attack. A system could be adopted like that of Germany. .The militia could be mobilized at shoit notice and brought .into the field. Of course it could not expected that they would be perfect, up to the highest standard of military "requirement, but they would at least, be faiily giounded in the essentials of military training and a short time in active service, would develop them into an ex ceedingty useful and reliable force. Something of this sort should be done. Though the people of the United States are very desirous of avoiding war and are not willing to believe that, within any short approaching period, a contingencv may arise that may force us into hostilities with any of the foreign powers, yet in the rapidly ehang ing events that are constantly tak ing place, it is dimVult to deter mine what may happen. It is most assuredly a wise policy to guard against all contingencies, even thoe which appear mo-l un likely. Tin: death of the well-known French general, Ducrot, recalls the surrender at Sedan, the cap ture of the French emperor, which was followed shortly after b the upsetting of the imperial dynasty. After the wounding of Marshal MacMahon, in one of the first fights at Sedan, he was Miecooded in command by Ducrot, who or dered made all arrangements for withdrawing the army toward the French capital, there to make the stand. This was J nitrated by General "Wimpfier, who, be'ng In senior in rank, had arrived and taken command before the move ment had commenced. Xot ap preciating the desperate situation of affairs, he countermanded the order for retreat and remained un til it. was impossible to extricate the French from the enclosing coils of the German army. it was surrender or destruction, and Napoleon-had to bow to the inevita ble. What the result would have . . s. been if Ducrot 's belter genoral- ship had been followed, it is difficult to conjecture. Tin: treasury depnrtment esti mates the levenue of the United States, for the pi eent fiscal year, at 4GO,00,000. It is -t range that with surh an enormous leve nue the congress of the Tinted States could not find the means to construct a proper navy for the country. One of these days, when by a sudden and unexpected war, tc which vrc will be more liable by Virtue of our defenseless I situation, with the commerce of j " liiu ui-rii .suai, viie icauinp sea-j )oWs n1 forced to Py heavy tri- butc savc themselves from lo- 1st ruction, we may be able to real. : "?- of conarress, in this mattor. ' Ir would ei-m as though the loou ; disaster "JU-1 e the only means bv which we can be taugh practical common sense on the subject of national defences. A London despatch of the '21st, says: Admiral newett tclegiaphs from cuez at four this morning, as follew: Vest ei day C'apt. Hast ings, in command of the seamen and marines of the gunboats Sea gull and Mosquito, assisted by '200 highlanders under Major Kclscy, proceeded to Shalicf, by way of the maritime canal, and found 1500 of the enemy strongly intrenched behind a station. The Knglish force landed and defeated them, taking -!." prisoners, a small cannon and a quantity of ammunition and stores. Our loss was two high landers drowned and two seamen wounded. The enemy's loss was about one hundred killed and wounded. The bank of the fresh water canal at Shalicf was cut by the enemy, but it has been lepaiied now. A brigade reconnoitered in force at the same time and in the same direction. The tratisport, Mori ton Hall, with the seventh Bengal infantry, has arrived at Suez. The French troop ship Shamrock entered the canal this ninniing. "U. order of the secretary of the navy"" a special Hag has been adopted in honor of the president. This reads like the account of some princely performance. Tis prob lematical where the secretary got such authority. The stars and stripes were good enough for all the twenty presidents who have gone before, and what jccsa1 merit His Aeeldency possesses, is hard to see.
