obtained. If Russian officers and marines can get on to military ground and into our works without being caught so much the better for them and the worse for us. But, then, when they are caught they must not complain if the punishment Is severe. It would be very-much more severe and very different in kind if a British naval officer should be caught among the fortifications of, let us say, Vladivostock. There is one thing, how ever, to be said, and it is that in the absence of sentries and guard-houses in the neigh bourhood of our forts we seem to invite Inspection. Every access to a fort in France or Germany or Russla would bristle with the bayonets of sentries and ASPBERRYADE, &c.be blocked by a guard and a guard-bouse.
