the velopment has travelled. which have consed, in almost story, said, JES massing of all available force in home waters this has been specially the case in our own country, in which the policy of scrapping has been carried out in a manner which is by some deemed heroic, by others idiotic, according to the prepossessions of the critic. That con- centration of force is the beginning of strategy is koown to any one who cares to reason for himself, but concentration is tactical as well as stralogical, and practically you cannot have your entire navy grouped and prepared for war at a moment's notice. There is also this to be said, that the affairs of a nation are not managed in its Admiralty, and possibly what may seem as Ideal disposition of forces to the naval mind may det perhaps quare exactly with the requirements of foreign policy. Panicularly is this the case with Great Britain, with her enormous and widely-scattered possessions dispersed all over the face of the globe ¡, and her commercial interest, the tentacles of which stretch from the seacoasts of all continents and islands into dim hinterlands, the inhabitants of which reck not of the sea and of sailors. But where the flag has been seen, there should the flag be still is evidence lest haply it should be supplanted by the ensign of some foreign Tower, which, with a deep insight into the "minds" of "the sullen, silent propies, half devil and half child," flaunts its national cotours on every river and in every creek and infet, and sedulously propagates the idea that it is they, the stronger and clever people, who have sup- planted a Power which can no longer stand against the pressure which has been brought to

FLYING SQUADRONS?
In France at the present time those questions of concentration of force and the necessity of showing the flag in her foreign possessions have arisen op the eve of the discussion of the "Budget de la Marine," Outside of European waters France boats of, "Divisions Navales" in the Far East, the Atlantic, the Pacific, the Indian Ocean, and in Indo-China; but, way the critics, in case of war none of these divisions composed as they are of cruisers and torpedo craft, would be of the slightest use, and could only, on the outbreak of hostilities, seek the Dearest harbour of refuge and wait there until war was concluded. The remedy for this state of affairs appeari, however, to be a difficult problem, as it is admitted that the money is not forthcoming to strengthen these squadreas, and that all credits wrung from a reluctant Finance Minister must of necessity, be spent on the main battle fleets in home waters. The establishment of a Aying quadron has been mooted in the Press, but here again the old difficulty occurs, as big fast modera cruisers, apart frein expense in coal ad upkeep, are unable to show the flag in those-rivers, creeks, and harbours where hither, to it has been familiar object, and the "Divinos Navales are composed of old, slow, and small ships, which are quite able to perform this necessary duty. The solution would appear to lie in rearrangement of the. duties of the ships belonging to the distant,
stations, by the paying off of some of the oldest and 'most obsolete, and by the complete sup pression of the Atlantic division, consisting of the Chasseloup-Laubat, and the D'Estées, and of the Indian Ocean division, consisting of the Pourvoyeur, Rance, and Surprise-the duty of showing the flag in the Antilles and on the coasts of Africa and America being relegated to the cruises of l'Escadro du Nord.
