THE BRITISH ARMY. it Namvrlral MrfJ.-lh anl Ilrlativo Wrakui'ss in IVjcc atml M ar. The total t-xiH-mliture on thf araiy, out of taxes, la the year in the i-a of the I'niU-d Kir.jnlom was last year, aoconlinv to Sir Charles Dilke, li;.5(K), 0O0, says the London Saturtlay Koview. and in Imlia the same or Jl:3,0H).000 (34,(M)0,0(0 in the prt-s nt year), bt-sides the expenditure out of loans and that of the self-roveming' colonies for the armies of the l'.riti-nh empire. The col onies altop-ether spt-nd for themselves aW.ut 1. :(.. oO a year for urmv pur poses, in addition to the contributions made by come of thorn toward the im-K-rial forces and toward marine de fense. While the armies of the Hritbsh empire co-t about it:w. Mjo.ihio a year, the tieriu-tn empire cots about 0K and the French army a little over i.iS.ooo.ooo. Our armies cost tis, therefore, cwnsid erul'ly more than theirs, but while each of these powers would have ill the field on the twenty-fir day of mobilization over 2,000,000 of men, with between :?.000 and 4,000 puns, and bhind this vast force a lare gurrison and terri torial armj- in reserve, we could alto gether muster but S.0.000 men from all the resources at our command. I!ut the infrenious ISriton will retort that, thoupfli our forces are small, they are of exceptional quality; that one EnlLsh man is equal to two Frenchmen; that one volunteer is as pood as two pres.--d men, and fco on uud so weiter, etc. Not so. The 2.000,000 active 5erman or French troops, of whom we have just spoken, are "pretty much the same all-through" that is to say, they are of uniform quality, even if it be granted that their standard le not as hili as ours. Our muster-roll, on the contrary, is built up from the most heterogeneous sources, w! the quality, when the training and education of the soldier arc considered, if in some cases lii,rh. is in others de plorable. The total we arrive at is made up of 170.00;) troops, excellent though deficient in some particulars; .'0,000 to ."".,000 first-class army reserve, useful but not periodically drilled as i the reserve of every continental army; 2.000 second-class army reserve, hardly worth counting; li:s.oi0 militia, who may be said to be without half their oilicors; :.000 Channel iskuid militia: about 1.000 .Malta and St. Helena militia; 1 1, 00i yeomanry; 'J-J-l.OiiO volunteers: 74, ( regulars in India (undoubtedly a splendid force), tis.t00 pood native troops in India: 50. 000 bad native troops and 21.000 of what Sir Charles Dilke terms -vxlds and ends. I:i other words, the fijrures we can produce include everything we can pos sibly terra a soldier, from a fmardsman to a native policeman. They include some regiments of Indian infantry which are -recognized even by tursclves as worthless, and whom we from time to time disband as such. They include the St. Helena militia and the Voyal Irish eonstabulurj-, who, however etli cient in their own sphere, would proba ble lie so occupied in it tltat they can hardly- lx- available to fight a foreijmer. Hut. more than this, not only is our force thus variable and sometimes tin satisfactory as repanls the ciuality of its component parts, but it is siiifrularly badly proportionetl as regards the arms of which it is composed. If there is one thinjr which rtvent ex periments have established more than another, ami upon which there is com plete unanimity of opinion amoiir mili tary men. it i this that motlern armies should in future campaipiis lie remark ably well furnished with Inith cavalry and miillery; iu fur. try will be unable to face ino-iern musketry unless they are well su;iH.rted by (runs, and have the way of their at tack: prepared for them Ly uriii'ei lire.

Kontin About tue Head of IJuerty oa TliU C'win. Tlicre was a curious story about the head of Libtrty, says the Illustrated Ami-rican. un the obverse of the Bland dollar. This is kuid to bo modeled from the head of Mis. Anna W. Villi:im-s nx' instructor of philosojjhy and meth ods of kintkTurtcB training at the tJirls' normal school in Philadelphia. At the time tlie Bland dollar made its first appearance, the secret leaked out some how, and to avoid the notoriety the most indefatigable efforts were made to deny the fact, and even to this day it is difficult to gvt any of Miss Williams' friends who ore in the secret to admit it. Her name wt-jit broadcast over the land, however, and from almost every iuartcr of the lobe fche was delugvd with the most pressing and flattcrinff offers of marriare. Mis Williams was a student of the Academy of Fine Arts when Enjrraver t.eorpe Mtwtran. who made the pattern from wliich the dol lar was copied, was easting1 about for a model. Some ladies amonfr the students at the academy were selected to pose. The contour of M iss Williams' features was chosen as coming nearest to the pure Crecian ideal, lief ore the pattern was finally adopted it was sent to tlie academy to pvt the opinion of some artists as to its artistic merits. Tho profile was criticised in several particu lar, chief amonr which was what was rejrarded as a too prominent chin. But the authorities at the mint thoupht it one of tlie most lieantifnl types of face that was ever submitted for the head ol a coin, and it was adopted. As to it? stronp resemblance to the original, those who see Miss Williams oftenes! are lcst able to testify. It is considered a ffod lilc.-ness, but drawn somewhat liner than the liviiip; moleL Mr. Mor gan, by the way, is e.n Enp-lishiri-iii. and s)ine jk'ojJ i.uLst that he h:is 1.1 :r:i-''d Uj decljre his ori;rn in the jll:i.r" tlol lar. By holding the coin with the date uppermost, and covering the figure on a line across the eye to the hair, the pro file develops a likeness of King eor;re, tlie chin being his nose. Holding the coin in the same position and covering the medallion on a line from the chin to tho base of the cap. the curl of the hair develops a lion with its nose facing left. THE CHARMS OF MUSIC. One Caww iu Whirl. It Soothed Two Sav agp It re-ant . Ilu'band and wife had en quarrel liny, says a Columbus p;sper. Thw trouble bo, ran in tli' house. Iut the ln-Uigeri-iits hsd reached IrH' sidewalk, where hostil ities were resumed. She declared in the heat of passion that she would not live with him another hour. lie retorted that it didn't make any difference, the quicker tlie separation came the better it would le fr both. Tlie husband, ruising hw voice to a high pitch, said: "This ends all relations between us." "Go," said the wife, "I do not care now, for our home in only in name." Suddenly there hurst upoa the nijrht the atrainsof "Home, Sweet Home." It was the music of an orchestra that had just then lcgnn a serenade to a resident near by. It seems that tlie company of musicians had Wen inspired, for the piece was never rendered any better than it was that night. The husband and wife ceased quarrel ling, and Ixith stood as if rooted to the spot. The effect upon them could le seen at a glance. Both were weeping. There was a brief but terrific struggle between duty and pride. The husband glanced at the wife in a pitiful sort of way, and his look was re turned. As the strains of the great song were dying away, they rushed into eitca other's arias. The love of former years was then and there renewed. OLD AND ODD.

Tlie outside case on top and bottom has a ten years' calendar (from 147S to 147) engraved thareon, with instructions in Dutch, the figures, letters, etc.. In'ing quite legible. Dr. F. L.

It In-longed to tine of Dr. Har rod's ancestors, who was the early com panion of Daniel Boone, and is an open faced silver 'bull's-eye," bearing the date 1775. LOVE PLAYED A PART. Mary MoCxjks, of Erie, Pa., has the record of having eloped seven times from one husband. A Yorxo man was tarred and feath ered down in Mississippi the other day because he married a quadroon girl. A Genesee county (M ich.) young lady, who was recently awarded Sl.SOO in a breach of promise suit, has rewarded her chief witness by lestowing her in jured affections on him. The banns have leen published. Abraham Speck and his wife, of Mill Creek, near Huntington. Pa., have been married fifty years, and the husband has taken stops for a separation. le cause his wife and he disagree upon the advisability of sanctioning their daugh ter's choice of a husband. At South Colchester, (hit., M. Brown, aged eighty four, led to the altar Mrs. Margaret Clickert, aged ninety-' ven. The groom had buried frur wives and the bride mourned the loss of five hus bands. Her la.t husband died two years ago, aged one hundred and twenty-four years. Carioaitlra of tho f'rnaus. A curious fact in statist ios of popula tion is the greater number of people whose age is expressed in decimals of ten. For instance, in the last census of Rhode Island there were more than twice as many people .SO years old as there were 4'J. So, again, there have been found in a certain area 3,000 col ored people C9 years old, 1,200 71 and and 19,000 70. The fact is a striking illustration of the general fondness o people for round numbers. A man who is 59 or 61 years of age is quite apt to call himself 60, and in a similar case a woman will call herself 40 or 60. Completed III Make-l'p. An anecdote is poinp tlie ronnds in Australia, says the Sheffield TelegTaph, ejncerninpthe manner in which a well known leading actor supplied the acci dental absence of a necessary item of 'make-up." lie was playinj? Macbeth, and when he came to the murder scene he asked in vain for the blood with which he had intended to imbrue his hands. After abusing the property man roundlj for bis neplect, the actor, struck with a tiaipy thought, suddenly hit the functionary on the nose, so that a pood strpply of crimson fluid was obtained and in this the actor bathed his palm.
