Kir f ieorge Chesney, the well known mil itary expert, read an Interesting ntier on the defense of the ItritisL Kmplre before tha the Junior Constitutional Club, in Ixmdoit, the other day. He I quoted by the Net? York Post us saying that the lirillsli colon, le. as a rule, were sale against smx-essiul a taek.with the exception t f Canada, in case of war with t beFuited Stales. He said tnaltn t anatla there is an enormous line of frontier laced by ano'ber great independent empire and the serious question has to be consider ed how a tlelenst rould lie maintained alone; the great line in the event of tireat H'ltsui being engaged in h.sviliiie with the Unite! Slates. No doubt in the event of audi a tort of quarrel as took place not many years ago, when a strong letting was got up in certain parts of America In lavor of the annexation of Canada, and when, small, isolated bodiet mide eruption into that country, the Canadians would be able, at they were then, to give a very good account of themselves. It wat impoasible.bowever, lo iloubl if some great question or quarrel arose involving the interest of the lopleuf tbe I nited State, and it tliefteliugt ol that srop'e were to aroused that they should de termine to rnrry out and quarrel to the bitter eml, that tbe Kis,non could be anys tbit-g but an extremely serious one. I be people ol the Tinted States were cap able in times of great emergency of gieat things, and If tlieie were .10 issi.ijun td armed people ngaitist.i.issi.itsjtit Canadians-even tuposilig Ihe 'atiadians were united as mi man it wnsa question whether Hie deleti- of t anaila won, d be possible. Would it lit possible for tireat lliiiain lo give such effec tive aid us would prevent the occupation ol Canada by the people ol the I tilted Stules, He believed it would by an impossibility. Happily the attitude ami the feeling ol Ibe people of the I'nited States weieessentially pestetul they did Hot so fur as he knew, desire to increase their military retq onsi Iniilies or extend their empire. The present was not the time when it would be useful r in any way practicable lor the HM.sh overiiiiieut to lake any actual iiieasii'es lor the defense ol Cannon. Idles FnglanJ were at war with the ( tilled States, Canada was absolutely impregnable; if Knglund should he at war with the t inted Stales, lit believed it would b-nilxsrible lo ilef'-ud it.
