AMERICAN WAR PREPARATIONS.
NEW YORK, April 26th.
So far at the strategical aspects go I seem to stand hetween Sir Vesey Hamilton and "Miles." A far-sighted policy might obtain the right to ota Wel-hai-wel now, in peace time, because without such acquired sight China's neutrality in war might forbid its use to us. I cas com ceive that we might have acquired the right to The War Department's call yesterday for to use Wel-hal-wel as an advanced post la case volunteers is fall of surprises. After a careful of war with Rouils, and in view of operations perusal of the list of numbers and kinds of against Porr Arthur, wilbout the intention of troops required from each State. It appears to spending a penny upon it; and I rather think mi'tary men that the assignments and quotas must have been made by sɔma one alterly na- this is at the bottom of Sir Vesey Hamilton's views, and reconcies his appurent variations of familiar with the capabilliles of each individon ides. I find it very hard Indeed to bellars that State, or that a selection was made drawing lots from a hat. The State of New York has had we are about to permanently occupy the place, to set up states and a dockyard there, and then admittedly for years the best cavalry and light necessarily to re-crest the powerful fortifications artillery, yat only half of its well-trained cavalry and not I of its 8 batteries have been called for. and to lack up the large garlion without which
California and Maryland have no artillery whit- the works are useless. The game does not seem to be worth the candle, unless, as I beavor, but they are each required to farnísk font batteries. Furthermore, Bre Sites which have fort remarked, there is the ldes of a raliway to

25 States which possess 51 batteries mora or can scady for duly are not required to furnish s single one. Although the State of Pennsylvania's Guard comes three light batteries and three troops of "cavalcy, it is asked only for infair and heary batteries-the latter an unknown branch of the service in that State The New York Herald has special despatches from the headquarters of militia of awral States which tend to show that there is a disposition in militia clccles to criti izy the scion of the Washington Government segarding the call for volunteers,
I find it quite impossible to acquiesce in the hellef that Port Arthur may be converted into Gibraltar. In the first place, the simile is a bad ane, for Gibraltar in only impregnable because held by those who command the sea. Given the Spanlik lings," in the bands of the same Power that commands the ses surrounding Gibraltar, and it has no strength at all. When we look it we cut it off from the mainland by troops on the neatral ground, We have rather fallen Into the Way of saying to ourselves that Port Apher must be strong because the Japanese took it an eastly; the very weakness of the Chinese garrison belag held to prove what great things could be done by a different one. It appears to me that Port Arthur can be easily invested by the ships and troops of the Power commanding the sairounding réa, and I cannot sea the line of broken up iällway could supply troops and stores for the defe ice at anything like the same rate as both can be brought over se to the attack.
On the whole, I am bound to think that the Government will have more to say on this qan- tion so soon as their arrangements with Japan

THE SEAMAN'S TRUE FRIENDS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE “HOmokoro TemZAPE." DEAR SIR, There is perhaps no port in the known world where so much is done for the sea- faring class as bere in Hongkong. As a seaman I have visited neusly every important seaport, | bat never before have I found such energetic workers in the Mission to Seaman as I fed in this port, No doubt, Hongkong is fait af sueres and temptations for the senfaring community and “Land Sharks" are numerous everywhere ; | Chinese-18th of 41h moon of 14th year of but I dare really winested, that when once a Kwong-ti seaman has visited the mission rooms and jaleed In the heal by plenics, and other missionary | entertainments-say, I have really taken notice that the majority of seamen prefer the society of these benevolent people, and are thus stred from many a danger that body and soul is exposed to when one frequente the haunts or deas of the crimps and landsherks, of both sexes. On behalf of my ship mates and self. I hereby express our most elocere thanks to the fanc tionaries of the Mission to Sesmen, and wish. them will more success in their creditable and nobis efforts,

The genizi guruer spoke with considerable pride of the traults which had been achieved by Admiral Tewey, Although be weld he deplored, "the blind made Bess" which had caused the Spaniards to lose thele lives in a vain attempt to drive thel enemy out of the Bay. They might just as well have acknowledged that they were whipped,"acid he, "Instead of struggling wall the last with what was at the first but a faslovn hope.".
'The strangest part of the business was their unpreparedness to meet the attack," obieved the futirviewer
"As to that of course we had nothing to do. Plenty of time had been given them, and it's wilful negitgence on some one's part. We were told that on the morning of the fight they ln tended to inspect the feet. The whole thing is Inexplicable: they must have known that we had left Mirs Bay, and even had they known
