I said Your lordship knew the chief men of Bal aklava, and will you please explain to me what I have never been able to And out, and to which Tennyson made reference in his Charge of the Light and in that lino where he says, 'Some one had blundered Do you know and will you tell me exactly what that blunder was?" He said, "I can and will." Then the bishop illustrated with knives and forks and napkin rings on the dining table the position of the English guns tho Russian guns and tho troops. He dpm onstrated to me plainly what the military blunder was that caused the dash and havoc of that cavalry regimont whoso click of spurs spurts of blood you hear In the poet laureate's battle hymn.

Hero was the lino of the English guns, not very well defended, and yonder was ho line of Russian guns backed by the whole Russian army. Tho order was given to the cavalry regiment to take care of those English guns and keep them from being taken by the Russians, and tho command was, "Take care of those English guns!" But the words wero misunderstood, and It waB supposed that the order was to capture the Russian artillery. Instead of the command, "Take care those Ensllsh guns," It was thought the comand was. "Take those Russian guns!" For that ghastly and horrible assault of the Impossible tho riders plunged their spurs and headed their horses Into certain death. At last I had positive information as to what tho blunder at Balak lava was.

At Edinburgh. Scotland, years ago I asked one of the soldiers who rode In that charge the same question, but even he, a participant of the scene of that fiery day, could not tell me Just what tho blunder was. Now I have at last not only told In stirring words of a natural orator and magnetic talker, but on the dining table of the lord bishop of Auckland I had it set out before the eye, dramatized and demonstrated by the cutlery on the white table cloth; but instead of the steel bayonets, the silver forks of a beautiful repast, and instead of the sharp swords of death, knives for bread cutting, and instead of the belching guns of destruction, the napkin rings of a hospitality the memory of which shall be bright and fresh as long as I remember this visit to New Zealand.

(Copyright, tionis Klopsch. 1804.) Dunedln, New Zealand, July 20 The angels of night wero descending from the evening skies and. ascending from the waves of the Pacific and riding down In black chariot of shadow from tha mountains of New Zealand as we approached the harbor of Auckland and the light houoe on the rooks held up its great torch to koep us off reefs and to show us tho way to safe wharfage, seeming to say, "Yonder Is a path of waves. Ride into peace. "Accept the welcome of this island continent." It was 7:80 o'clock when the great screw of our steamer ceased to swirl the waters and the gangplank was lowered and we descended to the firm land, our name called as we heard it spoken by a multitude who were there to greet us.

Strange sensation was it ton thousand miles from home to hear our name pronounced by those whose faces we had never seen before and whose faces could be only dimly seen now by the lanterns on the docks and the lights of our ship, Just baited after a lpng voyage. What made the night more memorable was that I was suddenly informed at 8 o'clock I was to lecture in their hall and thirty minutes was short time to allow a poor sailor like myself to get physical and mental equipoise after twenty one days' pitching. But at o'clock I was ready and confronted a throng of people, cordial and genial as any one over saluted from platform or pulpit. I told how for many days I bad been looking off on a great ocean of Ipecac, but that I had not wanted, as many say under such circumstances, to be thrown overboard and that I did not think any ona ever did want to be thrown overboard and reminded them of the sea sick voyager who said he wished to be thrown Into the sea and the captain had a sailor dash on him a pail of cold ocean water and when the soaked and shivering man protested and asked the captain what he meant by such an insult, the captain replied, "You wanted to be thrown overboard and I thought I would let you try how you liked a bucket of the water before you took tho whole ocean." Never so glad wero we to stand on firm land as the night of our arrival at Auckland. Wondrous New Zealand! Few people realize how it was discovered.

They tell us of Captain Cook and of Dutch navigators, but ail the Islands of the South Sea, as well as this immense New Zealand, were discovered as a result of the effort to watch the transit of Venus over tho sun's disc from the South Seas. The Royal society sent out ships for this purpose, and Captain Cook and the astronomers and botanists who accompanied him on his voyage were only the agents of science. How the interests of this world are linked with the behavior of other' worlds, and how the fact mentioned suggests that most of the valuable things known in this world have been found out while looking for something else, and what sublimity all this gives to the work of the explorer, the transit of Venus, an island of light, resulting In the transit of many Islands from the unknown into tho well known. But tho prowess of such men can never be fully appreciated. The sea captain who puts out in this day of charts and navigating apparatus, with a ship of ten thousand tons, for another hemisphere, daring typhoons and cyclones, strange currents and hlden rocks, must be a brave man; but who can measure the courage of Cabot, or Marco Paulo, or Captain Cook, sailing out Into unknown seas, across wildernesses of water that have never been mapped, In ships of two hundred tons, discovering rocks only by running upon them, and met on shore by savages ready to scalp or roast them.

These challengers of tempest and cannibalism and oceanic horror must have had nerve and valor beyond that of any other heroes. Such men set New Zealand as a gem into the crown of the world's geography. To me and to most people who come here New Zealand Is a splendid surprise. We have all read so much about the superstitions and outrageous cruelty of this land In other times that we are startled on arriving here to find more churches in New Zealand than In America, in proportion to the number of the population. In one village that I visited since coming hero I find eight churches to a population of three thousand people.

There are too many churches in many places in New Zealand, and they Jostle each other and contend for right possession, hindering each other and half starving many of their ministers, as is sure to be the case when there are too many churches and consequently not enough support for every one of them. Another surprise to me is that female suffrage is In full blast I found elegant ladies telling of their experience at the ballot box, and I hereby report to the American ladies now moving for the right of female suffrage that New Zealand is clear ahead of them and that the experiment has been made here successfully. Instead of the ballot box degrading woman, woman is here elevating the ballot box, and why in New Zealand or America or anywhere else should man be so afraid to let woman have a vote, as though man himself had made such a grand use of it? Look at the illiterates and the Incompetents who have been elected to office and see how poorly the masculines have exercised the right of suffrage; look at the governments of nine tenths of the American cities and see what work tho ballot box haB done in the possession of man. Man at tho ballot box is a failure; give woman a chance. I am not clear that governmental affairs will be made any better by the change, but they cannot beany worse.

New Zealand tried it, let England and America try "it. It is often said In America that if women had the right to vote, they would not exercise it. For the refutation of that theory I put the fact that In the last election In New Zealand of 109,000 women who registered, 90,000 have voted, while of the 193,000 men who registered, only 129,000 have voted. This ratio shows that women are more anxious to vote than men. Perhaps woman will yet save politics.

I know the charge that she Is responsible for the ruin of her race since she first ate the forbidden fruit in paradise, but I think there Is a chapter in that matter of Edenlc fruit not written. I think that Adam, when he saw Eve eating that apple, asked for a bite and, getting it into his possession, ate tho most of It, and he Immediately shook the tree for more apples, and has been eating ever since. If woman did first transgress, I cannot forget that she introduced Into the world the only Being who has ever done much toward saving it. Woman ha3 started for suffrage and she is a determined and persevering creature, and she will keep on until she gets it. She may yet decide the elections in England and elect Presidents for the United States, as already she Is busy in the political affairs of New Zealand.

I was surprised also in these regions to find how warmly loyal they are to old England. I had heard that they had become somewhat Impatient of their governmental mother. But this is not so. They practically have things their own way, electing their own parliament, and all governors sent out from the old country are such men as are agreeable, and the people are required to pay no tax to the British crown and they are in good humor with the British flag. I addressed an audience last night, on my right hand the United States flag, on my left hand the English flag, and you ought to have heard them shout when at the beginning of my address I said: "When in my church at home I pray for the President of the United States, I am very apt to add, God save the queen." Many of the streets of New Zealand cities are called after the generals and prlmo ministers of Great Britain, and Wellington, and Palmerston, and Gladstone, are the names of great thoroughfares.

Now Zealand feels the financial depression very much as the whole world at this time seems suffering an epidemic. Indeed the world is now a compressed and Interlocked affair. Out of the hold of our ship arriving in New Zealand were lifted rakes, ploughs and various agricultural implements of American manufacture. To day all New Zealand la rejoicing that the American congress has put wool on tho free list and the value of the sheep on all these hill sides is augmented. Among our most interesting hours In New Zealand wero those spent at tho bishop's house In Auckland.

The Industries most affected aro decorative china, ready made clothing, paper waro and chemicals. The whole Germany export trade to the United States will bo Increased, owing to the passag of tho United States tariff measure, from 100 to 150 per cent, for some months, if present indications can be relied on. Tho Vossische Zeltung printed a verbatim translation ot tbe United States tariff bill on Wednesday last. In an extra edition, a piece of Journalistic enterprise which is much commented upon hero as bolng a departure from tho usual methods adopted in such cases. The bill, naturally, has attracted wide spread attention, aud the United States consulates throughout the manufacturing districts ot Germany aro flooded with inquiries as to the proper interpretation of the new duties and tho articles which come under them.

This is especially the case with the big German firms, as tho latter are taking steps to Increase their export business to tho utmost under the new measure. Dr. Glover C. Arnold of Neyr York city, who is passing through Berlin while making a tour of Germany, says that the lntero3t taken. In tho United States tariff bill by all German business men Is really amazing.

Emperor William's activity continues. On Tuesday ho reviewed his Brandenburgers on the Tempelhof review ground. He Is in constant communication with his advisers on all subjects and is diligently discussing the plana to check the spread of cholera. Yet he finds time dally to take long excursions. since Emperor William's return to Berlin large numbers of uniformed police are always present at the railroad station when he arrives there or departs from the city.

During tno parade on Tuesday last bis majesty was surrounded by a crowd of gendarmes, mounted and on foot. These precautions were connected with the recent arrest of anarchists la this city. An Interesting military horse race or teat of endurance is shortly to take place. The emperor has ordered two officers of the dragoon guards to ride from Berlin to Cologne, a distance of 312 miles, within four days. Each officer is restricted to the uso of one horse and the two contestants will only bo accompanied by bicyclists.

During the coming army maneuvers tho bi cycle and the uso of trained dogs will be tested on a largo scale. Henceforth the bicycle Is to form part of the equipment of each Infantry corps and each battalion will have a dotachment of thoroughly trained riders available, as well as expert instructors for training recrult3 in the use of tbe wheel. Dogs aro also to be more generally used in warlike operations, especially for advance guard and field dispatch service, although It has been demonstrated that collies are the only dogs which have been found really available for this work and their number Is limited if tho selection Is confined to first class animalB. Owing to the prevalence of cholera In certain districts the naval review, fixed to take place at Dantzlc, In the middle of the present month, will be held at Swinemunde, and for the Konlgsberg festivities the gathering of crowds has been officially prohibited. If Emperor William has not succeeded In completely reconciling Chancellor voa Caprlvl and Dr.

Miquel, the minister of finance, he has at least been able to effect a truce between them. This result is apparent In a published interview during which the chancellor Is quoted as saying that Dr. Miquel must stay In office as his task is only half done. The annual conclavo of the German Cath ollcs, at Cologne, has been largely attended. But little was done beside making speeches.

Thehe was neither unanimity of opinion on the school question, religious instruction nor the recall of the Jesuits to Germany. It is expected that Robert F. Kneebes, tha German American horseman, well known in the Western suites of America, who was arrested her on May 5 last, charged with ringing trotting horses, will be released In a few days. Sworn statements have been received from the United States showing that the mare Bethel, which he was supposed to have entered in race3 here, after declaring that she had never won race, was in tho United States during the period he is supposed to have been running her In Germany under tho fictitious name of Nellie. The magnificent sarcophagi of Emperor William I and Empress Augusta have been completed and placed In the mausoleum at Charlottenburg.

Emperor William has himself satisfied with them and today they were solemnly dedicated. The United States ambassador, Mr. Thoo dore Runyon, has boon busy since his return, but the statement that he has been engaged In negotiations with Herr Marschall von Bleberstein. tho minister for foreign affairs, In regard to tie American tariff is unfounded. The report circulated In this connection evidently caused great annoyance to tho German officials, for the National Gazette, to day, formally denies that the minister for foreign affairs visited Mr.

Runyon In connection with the taritf, adding: "Such a visit does not correspond with diplomatic usages. No Interview has taken place In regard to the sugar duties." Mr. Chapman Coleman, secretary of th United States legation, has gone to Switzerland, and "Mr. John B. Jackson, the second secretary of tho legation, Is also absent from tbe city.

Mr. Runyon's family will Join him here In October. Mr. Charles De Kay, who was recently ap iiit v.uii3ui sirnvim iui LUL' UiliLCU SvatCS, In this city, in succession to the late William Hayden Edwards, will assume office in a few days. Vice Consul Zlmmermann is to remain hero In his present capacity.

Colonel Karwlese of Louisville, who has been in this city for some time past endeavoring to get capitalists and engineers Interested in a canal from the Atlantic to the Pacific, destined to rival the Panama r.nd Nicaragua schemes, has returned to London, unsuccessful In his efforts to attract support for his plan. Crowds of Americans have flocked to the Homburg and other baths thoir number is Increasing. Many of them have followed the Prince of Wales to Baden Bader. r.nd oa Monday every hotel there was crowded. Tha races were of an unusually good international character, many French sportsmen being 1 present.

Tho battle of flowers on Tuesday was a great succcsh. The procession of carriages was marshaled on the Theater plat. The first carriage was preceded by huntsmen in scarlet. It was a five horso barouche belonging to Princo Charles of Furstenberg. The ivirsos were caparisoned In cherry and red ribbons, the prince's racing colors.

This barouche was occupied by the Prince of Walea and the beuutlful Princess of Pless, whoso sister, Miss Cornwallls West, with the Prince of Furstenberg, sat behind the Prince ot Wales and pt lted people right and left. Everybody seemed to enjoy the fun. Tho Emperor of Austria is to arrive at Landskron, Bohemia, early to morrow in order to attend the great maneuvres which bejsin on Monday. Archduke Albrecht Will have chief command of both armies. Emperor Francis Joseph Is to give a dinner on Wednesday to which all the foreign attaches who will be present at tho inancuvres aro to bo invited.

Mention should bo made of tho contribution to the occasion by Mr. William ltutz of Wallabout market of the banner carried by the guard, which was painted by himself and on which the fore shortening of the bovine head by which it was embellished gave evidence of uumistakeable native genius in tho artist.

Proposition to an Istiimtit From Urooiilyii (o New York.

Torftp Rrtfror nfthf IWmy ciwi F.n.n'p: I believe that It will bo only a question of time when the people of tho greater New York will plainly see that the so culled East river, Irom Wallabout bay to Hell Gato, is an impedi ment to the growth, wealth, and prosperity ot tho cities and thut time is not so far off but that to day tho filling in of an Isthmus, at the most conveuiant part, any from Huntwrs point across would prove its value and that tbo work wouM bo kepi up until the two cities wero practically maueono. iieioro making public such a stupendous innovation. I have studied ths subject nnd Und that tuer ore no insurmountable barriers iu tin! law of the bind or in the engineering feat that would prevent tho work if the gain is much greater than the loss. It need not curtail our oommerce or dockage, but might extend both. The two sides of tho isthmus would accommodate tho shipping that properly came to it irom above and below.

The East would find its "eoiumoilatlon for vessels above and tho oceun traffic below, and the railroad, thu great means ol luland transportation, would come between thorn and find ample facilities to extend comnmrco and manufactures to sections that are now cut off by this swift inlet of tide water that is a stoue wall now to expansion. The vessels that now want a continuous passage are small, mostly sailing vessels, that could go by tho new Harlem canal and the larger by the south shore. It is too much for, tho mind to grasp in looking ahead to tho possibilities of expansion Irom MoutuuK Point around the shore lino tho land that will tuom with a population probably greater than any section of the globe If narrow minded v.ews of clinging to the past do not hinder our progress. Bridges are spider weh and expensive, unsatisfactory and, in tbo case of the points whero we most need connection, the ehore laud is low nnd they roach buck and encroach on private property too much. Commerce for New York means docks, piers und railroads.

The cutting off of the swift tido would be an advantage The land reclaimed would pay for the wi rk if every obstacle on shore was dumped into the water'to do Its part in filling. Streets could be continued at their inti isoction, and it would the valuation of property so much that yueons county would be just as good as Kings und, la short, it would make Long island lh corning point, whero the ma S'. could have cheap homos within a low minutes' ride to tho en tral section. We neod room for manufactures mucli more than we need the little gut of water that stand In the way, while two great railroad nystenic are cutoff from tbir connection to uii points in the United Status except as they transfur frxight nnd pssengers at great expense. Thuro aro objections.

It is not obviously plain or it would have been dono long ago. I fei 1 almost like hesitating to state my views, but it Is duty that every citizen has to peak, as I have often dono in the Eagle, on any subject thut be thinks the oubllo welfare demands. I hardly think my scheme is a visionary one. except as it depicts in advance a vision of what in.iy ono day coma to reality. In wliicii Iho sight of counties trains of cars, wagone and foot passengers will travi 1 over tho busiest spot on oarth for ils size.

I du see much money In it for myself, but as a native of Now York oity I should dearly like to put ia th first shovelful of earlh and then live to see it completwl. JOHN S. BROOKS. Brooklyn, August 2, 1SD4. voi a pkacemakkh.
