NEARLY TEN MILLION MEN. The Army from Which Uncle Sam May Draw Should Occasion Require. Anarmy of 9,900,000 men! How Na- poleon’s legic dwindle beside this, and the hosts which Grant, Sherman and Sheridan led shrink to pigmies, says the Boston Journal. This enor- mous figure represents the number of able-bodied men in the United States available for military service. But of course no such swarm of fighters could ever be mobilized in this or any other country. It would overtax even Amer- ican ene! and resource to clothe and feed and arm them and maintain them in idleness. The figures have no prac- tical military but as a sugges- tion of the ar potentialities of the young republic they are not j Without their interest to the world. But when we come to enumerate the men actuall under arms in the United States as trained and disciplined soldiers we realize our present military significance. Besides the little regular army of 000 men there is a more or less thoroughly organized and eqnipped force of 112,- 190 men in the national guard and militia. That is, only about one man ina hundred of those of our citizens liable to bear arms is regularly en- gaged in mastering the rudiments of e soldier's profession. New York, as expected, has the largest i officers and has 8,614 , 6,125. Then yell up in the South Carolina, and men, has an Pe unsylvani officers and me comes Massa list, with with 5,440 officers armed force out of all proportion to its wealth and population. The New England states, outside Massachusetts, have respectable little armies, ranging from Vermont's 784 to Connecticut's 2,761. The southern states have large militia organizations as a whole; the western states very small ones. But the national guard is steadily growing | everywhere in numbers as in efSciency. It is fulfilling in a satisfactory way its purpose of perpetuating a knowledge of military art, and it would be found to be a respectable ruclens for a host of volunteers to rally on in an emer gency. A Railroad Through the Sea. An interesting experiment is about to be carried out at Brighton, Eng- land, in the shape of the construe- | tion of a marine railway for the pur- pose of connecting Brighton with the little village of Rottingdean, some three or four miles to the eastward.
