The presidents of all the departments are\nentirely united in their view that the\nwar must be pursued until a wholly\ndefinite result is obtained, that all\npolitical quarrels must be made subservient to nntiobal unity, and that\nthose responsible for the conduct of\nthe war must receive ample support,\nhowever long it may be thought necessary to continue the struggle.\nThe negotiations between Japen\nand China were concluded last week,\nand the two treaties, including the\nthirteen notes, Bigned in the Chinese\nforeign office at Pekin. The discussion of the Japanese demands is thus\nterminated until the five articles reserved for future argument are\nbrought out for consideration. Several alterations were sought, by the\nJapanese government. These included\nthe omission of the words 'south'\nand 'eastern' before Manchuria and\nInner Mongolia respectively.

Admittedly they\nare better when on the offensive than\nbehind fortifications, and one sees\nthem at their best in a swift initiative where the bayonet decides.\nLong before the recent war in\nNorthern Africa, the military leaders\nof Italy had learnt the value of these\nlight infantrymen, and their effort\never Bince has been to increase their\nnumber and to develop their training. Particularly has this been the\ncase since the outbreak of this war,\nnnd Italy has never been so strong\nin these troops as now. In pre-war\ndays the Bersaglieri were divided into three lines, of which the English\nequivalent would be, roughly, first\nline, reserves, and militia. Since\nAugust, however, the whole of these\nthree classes have been placed upon\na war footing. The Bersaglieri are\nnormally divided into ten regiments\nof three battalions, roughly about\nthree thousand bayonets on a war\nfooting, but many new regiments\nhave been raised during the past six\nmonths. Every man is picked, and,\neven if rejected from this force, is\nabsorbed into the infantry of the\nline. To;eacb regiment a battalion of\ncyclists is attached. Actual experiment has shown that a trooper,\npicked at haphazard, and without\nprevious warning, could carry four\nbicycles on his shoulders and yet\noutpace the swiftest infantry pursuit\nthat could be sent against him. These\ncyclist battalions are especially designed to accompany the Bersaglieri\ncavalry in the field. These Italian\ncyclists excited the interest of the\nlate General Sir Charles Douglas,\nand he was anxious that a similar\nforce should be introduced into the\nBritish army.\nThe'Bersaglieri, it may be added,\nis for the most part composed of men\nof much better social standing than\nthe rank and file of the Jtalian army\nand they claim, with considerable\njuBtice, descent from the famous\narmy of some 70,000 men that, under\nCharles Albert, confronted the armed\nmight of Austria in 1848 and formed\nthe backbone of the, Italian army in\nthe Crimea six years later. Here it\nattracted general admiration from\nits excellence of organization, equipment, and discipline. Thus it will be\nseen that the Bersaglieri iB at once\nunique in its establishment and its\ntraining, and is a foe that might well\nconfront even the Prussian Guard.\nEveryiOc *\nPacket of\nWILSONS\nFLY PADS\n.WILL KILL MORE FLIES THAN-\n\$8\u00C2\u00B0-0 WORTH OF ANY /\n\STICKYFLY- CATCHER/\nIn the 'Reichstag' on May 27th the\nChancellor, Dr. Von Bethmann-Holl-\nweg, dealt with Italy's declaration'.of\nwar, and made a speech of a slanderous character against that country,\nbut which so pleased the members\nthat the House adjourned to next,\nday as a mark of complete assent in\nhis views.

The name literally means\n'marksmen,' but those who compose\ntin- force are considerably more than\ntbis, and it would he difficult to Be-\nlect any other corps in a European\narmy that compares to them. The Alpine troops of the French army are\nprobably tbe nearest approach.\nIt Is no uncommon thing to find\nmen serving in tbis magnificent body\nof light infantry who represent the\nthird and even the fourth generation\nof their family, who have carried the\nshort rille and worn the familiar\ndark green 'smasbtr' hat with its\nproud cockade. The strength of this\nforce cannot be estimated exactly at\ntho present moment, but It is pro-\nel ably about 100,01)0, including reserves and partially trained men.\nThe chief pride ol tbe Hersiigllerl Is\ntheir inarching powers.

But his writings about\nTurkey are still valuable, and I think\nbis account of the Dardanelles an admirable summary of the problem in\nsiiite of the changes which make it\nfor practical purposes out of date.\nSo 1 have translated his letter on\nthe subject, and here it is:\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2li, tbe evening of the 2nd of April\nJ left Constantinople in an Austrian\nsteamer, and next morning caught\nsight of the beautiful high hills of\nthe iBland of Marmora.

The largest of\nthem, weighs as much as fifteen tons,\nand takes a charge of 148-ths. powder\nTheir interior diameter is 2ft. Din.,\nbo that a man can creep into them.\nBehind each heap of earth a wall of\ngreat squared tones has been built\nto stop the recoil, but these walls\nare shattered after a few discharges.\nThe stone, cannon-balls ricochet over\nthe water from Asia to Europe or\nfrom Europe to Asia, and then roll\na good way further on land. If one of\nthese balls strikes a ship on the\nwater-line it is not easy to see how\nthe hole two and a half feet in dia-\nmenter can be plugged.\n'Some daring and lucky ent.rpris-\nes of thc Kngliah 'at sea have Bpread\nthe idea that land-batteries cannot\ndefend themselves against fleets,\nwhich, of course, are lar superior to\nthem in number of guns. Such an en-\nterprse was that of Lord Duckworth, in 1807. The defences of the\nDardanelles were then in the most !\nlamentable condition; the English \\nsquadron sailed through almost un- '\nlesisted, and on the JOth of February\na hostile fleet for the first time ap-\njieared under the walls of the \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 Ottoman capital.\n'The less the Turks had ^thought\nsuch an event possible, the greater\nwas their panic at the first moment.\nIt is well known that the influence\nand energy of the French ambassador\nprevented the Divan from agreeing\nto all the demands of the English;\nbatteries sprang up on thc banks of\nthe Tophane (arsenal) and \u00C2\u00BBof the\nSerai, while in rear of the intruders\nthe Dardanelles were hurriedly put\ninto a state \"St defence. Soon the\nBritish Ambassador himself did not\nknow what use to make of his admiral's military success. After eight\ndays Lord Duckworth thought himself lucky to get back to the roadstead of Tenedo, with the loss of\ntwo corvettes and with most of his\nother ships badly damaged.\n'The ball fired from a ship against\np. land;battery will, in the most favorable case, kill a few men and dismount a gun, while that fired by a\nland battery may quite well put a\nship out of action. Men, guns, and\nammunition are incomparably safer\nin 'the land battery than behind a\nship's walls. Most important is the\ncircumstance that the ship's rolling\nmakes accurate aimin? impossible.\nThe land ,battcry prescntB a target\nabout four;and a half feet high, and\na slight little roll increased or diminishes the elevation of the guns to\nsuch an extent* that a whole broadside strikes too high or too low. But\nthe great gun of a land battery is\nstill, the gunner takes, an exact aim.\n;.nd his tareet is a wall 20 or SO feet\nhigh, a hundred feet long, and vulnerable all over. Balls that go too\nlow may yet hit hy ricochet, balls\nt hat go too high may destroy masts,\nspars, and sails. The larger number\nof\u00C2\u00BB guns is on the side of the fleet;\nthe more favorahle conditions on the\nside of the land battery.\n'Another circumstance is specially j\nnfavorable to the passaee of ships'\nthrough the Dardanelles to the Sea\n- f Marmora; all through the summer j\nthe wind blows almosti continuously\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0he north; merchantmen often\nwait from four to six weeks before\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2ney can pass up the Straits, and,\nwhen at last a south wind comes, it\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 he pretty strong to overcome\n'.iff current of the Hellespont.,\n'-\u00E2\u0096\u00A0 southwards, It\nit Hum Kale\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2here is a south wind which has\n. e ;,H.ii to blow when Nagara is reach\nAdvertising Pays\nIF you advertise\nin the Mail-Herald\nmentions vary from one pounders to\n1,600-poUnders, Thire are guns that\nare five calibres long, and there are\nguns '.vi calibres long; there arc Turkish, English, French, and Austrian\nguns, and some arc marked with the\nbat of an Elector.
