vasion were more strikingly displayed. The Russian Government possessed an

enemy in number, in organization, and in resources of material. It had the most ample time for preparation. It dno difficult frontier to. pass, no sea, nO range of mountains, no desert, nothing but a broad river, which, when the time chosen by the invaders arrived, was passed with the greatest ease, The defenders possessed only an army inferior in numbers, and badly officered; and a great number of half-trained yolunteers; and yet, merd because the invaded people would stan and fight with resoMation, the invasion be came ® very lengthy and exhausting affair, [tis not shown that the Russians have made any serious mistakes, and it is shown that the Turks nave done nothing except await attack in well-chosen positions, end yet the Russians cannot be fairly said to have advanced, after four months fifty miles into their enemys’ country, The lurks have ayail. ed themselves of the old resource of an invalid people, that of awaiting an attack, which must be made if a hostile army is not to be left in the rear, threaten- ing the communications of the invaders, and that has proved sufficient. The war being purely defensive, the half-trained volunteers, though unabie to manceuvre, aud scarcely able to march, have been able to defend their positions in such a way that the invading army has suffered heavy losses and repulses, so grave as seriously to affect the nergy and hopefulness with whict. its ineu advance to the attack. ‘That is a seri- ous matter for an invading army which, numerous though it may be, and great as may be the population at its back, never can be—except in extreme cases not likely to occur—as numerous as the popular foree by which it can be opposed. No nation can Keep up a regular army equal in number to the men of the nation it attacks, and tor the purpose of invasion only a regular army is useful, tor only a regular army, once out of its own country, can keep its discipline, more swiftly and feed itself with sufficient ease. Its iosses, therefore, are all irre- placeable, and can be inflicted by men very inferior in training to itself, because they are not required by the nature of the case to do anything which demands scientific training.”
