AN IMPORTANT LETTER.

llSc$. under It's editorial head, the following
letter. containing statement from ''high and
reliable" authority, of the views Of the Empe-
ror Napoleon upon the Crmran campaign. Ii
is pretended that these views were expressed
in conversation with the writer Of the letter,
but whether or not Ibis be true they are con-
Sidcrcd sufficiently striking to be worth atten-
ton:
PARIS, July, 1875.
Public Sentiment generally, both in France
aud England, is inclined to look upon the siege
Of ;;cba<topul as substantially failure, and
the IN in the Crimea as 4 mistake.
The Emperor does not at all cuncur i'll this
view Of the subject IIccxprc>Scs his opinion
Very freely in conversation with his intimate
friends, and maintains that the Allies are
marching steadily towards 4 complete victory
over Russia In one conversation with an
English officer, held in my presence, the En-
prror spoke substantially rs follows:

CONVERSATION.

Among a large proportion of young women,
and especially among those who are not remar-
kablc for the strength of their understandings,
and who have not been accustomed to estimate
the worth of objects according to the standard
of reason and religion, conversation loaded
with hatteries as silly as they are gross, too Of
ten finds welcome hearers. Hence also, dis
course is confined, in circles of this descrip-
ton, to scenes, topics, and incidents, which
embrace little more than the amusements OF
the preceding or ensuing afternoon the looks
and the dress of the present company, or OF
their acquaintance petty anecdotes OF the
neighborhoqd, and local scandal Is it not
wonderfuL hen, that the wish prevalent in
most mel especially in young men, to
nender themselves acceptable in social inter-
Course to the female sex, should betray them
into mode of behavior which they perceive to
be so.s1erally welcome 1t is wonderful
that he who discovers triaiDg to be the way to
>ase should become triAer? that he who,
the casual introduction of a subject which
Bmed to call upon the reason to exert itself,
LIS brought an ominous yawn over the coun-
tcnance of his fair auditor, should guard
against repetition Of the offence?
But it is not only to women of moderate ca
pacity that hours of triAing and hippant con-
versation are found acceptable 10 these OF
superior talents they are not unfrequently
known to give degree of entertainment, great
er than, on slight consideration, We might have
expected. The matter, however, may be ca

lIarengo Austerlitz, Wagram, Lelpsic,
Dresden, Borodino and Waterloo We're among
the most desperately contested battles Of the
first Napoleon. At Marengo the Austrian>
lost ten thousand. more than third Of their
whole force, while the French lost seven thou
sand. or about the same proportion. \ con-
siderable portion of them were prisoners, how
ever, while at the Rcdan and MalakoH, but
few prisoners were taken. At Austcrlltz
the French lost twelve thousand, or nearly a
sixth of their entire force but the allies lost
thirty thousand, or more than third
At Wagram the loss on either side was twenty
five thousand, or about one seventh OF those
engaged. At Leipslc the loss was forty three
thousand on the side OF the allies, out OF near
" three hundred thousand in the field and SIN
tv thousand on the part rG the French, out OF
one hundred and seventy-fve thousand At
Dresden the allies lost tWrnt"-nFe th'i>aHu'
or one-sixth Of their entire number, while the
French lost but twelve thousand, or one tenth
At Borodino, the bloodiest battle of all, fifty
thousand fell on each side GA third of those
in the battle. At Waterloo the French lost
forty thousand, or more than half; but large
proportion of these fell in the rout; yet the
English lost nearly twenty thousand, or almost
third of their entire troops.
1t is often said, in discussing military at
fairs, that our American battles have been too
triHing to take into consideration But If we
consider, not numbering the actually Killed
and wounded, but the proportion which those
numbers bear to the whole force engaged, we
shall find that those actions, thus scorned,
were as hotly contested as even the first Napo-

THE GREAT
INVENTION OF the ACE!
Economy against Waste

THE subscribers having obtained the Patent
Right 10 manufacture the IMPROVED COM
lost ATTACHMENT OR FERTILIZER,
are pleased to inform the AgriculturalIst and
others that they fully prepared to attach
this highly celebrated patented Compost to
every Drill desired. The design of this inven-
tOn is to furnish the farmer with Machine
simple ia it's construction, durable in its make,
and at q cost comparatively small, which will
enable him to sow with his gain the Compost
Manures, which the experience of every prac-
tical farmer goes to prove is the greatest ferti-
lizer brought into use. The mixture of ashes
and guano is contended by some to be the best
way in which guano should be used, as it is
saving to the farmer of 100 per cent. in his
outlay and almost treble in the enhanced value
Of his product, though this Machine is adapted
TO the use of GuanO in any form which the far
mer may think proper TO use 1t. The certIfi-
Gates which follow, though the Attachment has
Just come into use, are from some Of the most
intelligent and practical farmers in Virginia.
II is shown, by the tests which have have beer
made, that 40 lbs of guano sown by this
Attachment, is better than 200 lbs broadcast.
1t works with ease and regularity, can scarcely
be gotten out Of order, can be attached 10 al.
most any description of Drills, and is, in short,
what the farmer Just needs, and their true in-
terests demand.

complete fixture we have ever witnessed. TIT
Compost Attachment works admirably and will

larly over the field. We have made use Q
Gnano at the rate of 300 lbs. to the acre
broadcast. aud with the Drill from 40 to 10 lbs
and found that 40 lbs. with the Drill woul
produce more wheat, by bushels to the acre
than 2OU lbs. broadcast. From our observation
we are satisfied that no land can be found thS
will not produce 90 bushels TO the acre, by th
use Of 40 or 80 lbs. of Guano as sown by tn
