"
Well
?
"
"
Well
,
there
might
be
some
field
for
enterprise
down
there
;
and
if
they
would
accept
our
services
--
--
"
"
What
are
you
dreaming
of
?
"
screamed
Bilsby
;
"
work
at
gunnery
for
the
benefit
of
foreigners
?
"
"
That
would
be
better
than
doing
nothing
here
,
"
returned
the
colonel
.
"
Quite
so
,
"
said
J.
T.
Matson
;
"
but
still
we
need
not
dream
of
that
expedient
.
"
"
And
why
not
?
"
demanded
the
colonel
.
"
Because
their
ideas
of
progress
in
the
Old
World
are
contrary
to
our
American
habits
of
thought
.
Those
fellows
believe
that
one
ca
n't
become
a
general
without
having
served
first
as
an
ensign
;
which
is
as
much
as
to
say
that
one
ca
n't
point
a
gun
without
having
first
cast
it
oneself
!
"
"
Ridiculous
!
"
replied
Tom
Hunter
,
whittling
with
his
bowie-knife
the
arms
of
his
easy
chair
;
"
but
if
that
be
the
case
there
,
all
that
is
left
for
us
is
to
plant
tobacco
and
distill
whale-oil
.
"
"
What
!
"
roared
J.
T.
Maston
,
"
shall
we
not
employ
these
remaining
years
of
our
life
in
perfecting
firearms
?
Shall
there
never
be
a
fresh
opportunity
of
trying
the
ranges
of
projectiles
?
Shall
the
air
never
again
be
lighted
with
the
glare
of
our
guns
?
No
international
difficulty
ever
arise
to
enable
us
to
declare
war
against
some
transatlantic
power
?
Shall
not
the
French
sink
one
of
our
steamers
,
or
the
English
,
in
defiance
of
the
rights
of
nations
,
hang
a
few
of
our
countrymen
?
"
"
No
such
luck
,
"
replied
Colonel
Blomsberry
;
"
nothing
of
the
kind
is
likely
to
happen
;
and
even
if
it
did
,
we
should
not
profit
by
it
.
