give the Navy a ohanes of recovering from a partial defeat Wo cannot allow that Adiziral Colomb has succeeded, if anoh wore his object, in shaking thuk view; It is a point of soms in format to note that Admiral Colòmb finds some neo for military garrisons in that thoy ahoukl be capable of sifoviling some protection to com mercé and to weaker warships pursued by the enery. This lesson is to be learned from the various actions in the West Indies in the old wars. The question of military garrisons is affected, no doubt, by the introduction of steam power and the decline of the sailing ship. Iu inraer daya the oatizing possessions were mor lable to attack than they will be in future wore, Tougusa 158 can now time the movemants of one sbipe with arouracy and provide, muro effective defence toollint extent, But, as we have often. observed, the old prolominance of the Briti Navy is threatened by the growth of foreign fets, and should there be war between Baglınd and a strong encabination of naval Powers, the necessity of gaurting against raids on the coal- ing stations soorns likely to be greater than ever. Formerly they were onlonies, but now they are coaling ports in addition, so that the enemy would have a donkie object it attacking them-- Namal and Military Record.
