reforming men; by thelaws of the civil magistrate, and by the preaching of ministers;
but the most likely and hopeful reformation
of the world must begin with children.—
Wholesome laws and good sermons are but

An Englishman's Opinion
of the Amerwriter in the London

United Service Journal, says, " Thare ia no
doubt that we, (the English,) have three
powerful rivals in France, Russia, and the
United States; but of these three, the Americana are the moat important ones, on account
of their origin, their courage, and their even
greater activity and enterprise than our
own." The writer then proceeds to show
that our Navy, though numerically inferior
to that of France, and even to that ofRussia,
is intrinsically superior to either, and contains the germ of a great and powerful fleet.
We have the raw material, the workmen, and
a sufficient merchant navy to arm as men of
