There was fellow once stepped ont Of the door

landing there lay big raft, Of the regular old
fashioned Whalers--a rafe a mile long.
Well, the fellow heard the landlord say the raft
was mile long, and he said to himself: III will
go forth and see this great wonder, and let my
eyes behold the timbers which the hand of man K
hath hewn" So he got on at the lower end and
began to ambulate over the wood in pretty fair
time. But Just as he got started the raft started
too and he walked up the river the raft started

pretty near ashore and in sight Of tavern 40 he
landed, and walked straight into the bar-room he'd

And the tavern man said, that from the rising

SIGNS OF ALARM.

The New York Herald publishes a semioffical
manifesto from John d. Defreese, of Indiana, a
confidential friend of Lincoln, designed, as that
paper thinks, to aay the alarm at the South at the
prospect Of the election of the Black Republican
candidate. In this letter Defreese undertakes to
show that Lincoln is pledged to the execution Of
the Fugitive Slave Law, to the admission of new
slave States if the people thereof SO desire, and in
general to forbearing and antiaggressiye policy
with respect to the Southern section Of the Union.
All this is probably an electoneering device on
the part Of Mr.. Defreese. He is an old chronic
politician, of quarter of century's experience
well versed in all the wiles, intrigues, and short
cuts Of party diplomacy and deceptive political
strategy. His object is not to quiet the South,
but to strengthen the failing courage of his party
at the North. That party, dreadng dissolution
of the Union is undoubtedly alarmed at the signs
Of the times-and they are abandoning Lincoln as
rats desert sinking ship. But if the South can
be reassured by promises, and cease their threats
of revolution, then these men will return to Lin
coin and elect him President 1t is too late now
to play this game out, but that such is Mr.. De-
freese's object, we think, is plainly to be seen.

New York, of what Is now the policy of the Black

The Art Of Fighting the French Army.

Prince Frederick Charles of Prussia has just pub.
lished pamphlet, under the title of The Art of
Fighting the French Army. The royal author
gives as the first principle of the French system of
warfare, that the French soldier always marches X
forward the second he says is, that moral is su-
perior to physical force So Marshal Canrohert,
when he had coup de main on his hands iE the
Crimea always asked his soldiers: ''Do you feel
equal to it? y They never answered taNo; y and i
the promise which they themselves had given to
their General was the guarantes,of their success.
The third principle of the French according to the
prince, is to hold themselves in serried column
against an enemy which is belly disciplined and i
unaccustomed to military maReuvers; and, on the.
contrary to fight with dsordered ranks and like
skirmishes when they have to do with regular and
we'll disciplined troops The fourth French pHin-
cipie is, to defend themselves pnssiyely. Off
this the prince says If it happens that the French
are attacked bya close coiumn, they proceed in /.
this way and it is especially excellent when the
attack is not supported by corps de feserDe. The
French rifemen give way at the point of attack !.
the attacking column imagining that this is the
. commencement of q retreat, pushes on, but soon.
the riemea present g. new front ona or two,
columns advance. The. sharp-sheoters surround
the enemy on all sides ;5he hestates, he loses,
time he cannot turn back there he IS compelled
to fight, and is abandoned to his fate. The French.
soldiers are ordered IN this case rot to Kill any
more, but to make prisoners because soldier san

an hour before they came to. she baYsnet, and
oftentimes they did not burn cartridge auring the

SO that whsn they reach the. enerdy, they are not

principles as Of Prussian oHigin Ha believes THAI
they are. not even the pAedact. of sAe French na7
tiona sharaster, and thst the Temperament of the
Prusainn soldiers is a9uaira'oly adapted to them

George H. Peacock who was recently killed in
New Mexico by the Kiowa chief, Satank, was ap-
piled to, last spring, by the Indian, for recom-
mendation to any whites he may meet, but know
ing his treachery and cunning, instead of COM
mending him, he gave him a writing warning all
persons to beware of him, as he was treaeherous
and dangerous, presuming that, as he could not
read, he would never know what it contained.
Some Mexican translated it for him, and he killed
Peacock in revenge.
