ed bv Napoleon on the smallest details Of
military organization, has always seemed TO
MS an evidence Of his talent scarcely Inferior

better than Napoleon that the efficiency OF q
soldier depends, FIRST Of all, upon his being
in perfect health and splendid condition. de

ton Of pugilists when they fight lot Tue
championship. To this and several things
are essential the chief OF which are, regular
and wholesome food, regular sleep dry and
warm feet aud no powerful sumulants. Ma
poleon always insisted upon every soldier
having two pair OF good shoes, and a good
blanket. Everything else could be extempo-
ri5ed or dispensed with, but these-the shoes
for the march and the blanket for the blvounc
could neither be extemporized nor dispensed
with. When the o~cCasion occurred, Napo-
leon demanded Of his troops the most tre-
mendous exerlions; but the admirable health
resulting from bis system enabled the soldiers
to endure fatigues which would have killed
ordinary men. Il Is also to be observed,
that this consumate General was careful 10
give bis troops a rest proportioned TO theil
exhaustion, the very instant 1t was safe to dc

There was nothing in which Napoleon
showed more forethought and good sens
than In his management of recruits. 'H'

shop. the field or desk, cannot change then
habits TO those ola soldier without grea
risk. Consequently, he was as careful ant
tender in managing his new troops as moth

them to the hardshiPs of war By degrees
Their first marches were only ten or twelT
miles day, with a frequent day of rest tn
officers who led them from their native pro
yinces to the distant scene of wa, wer
charged 10 make the march of pleasant serie
of lessons in the military art. Sometime
when the quarters were good, when the exi
gency was not pressing, they would baltic
ten days, and undergo a daily drill OF eigt
hours. The consequence, was, that men VII

J. A single week Of careless handling, irrel

moraIize a regiment Of new troops. But

CAIRO, III, june =
The steamer City of Alton with two eompa
mics Of Col. 0glesby's Regiment, and q squad of
artillery men with two field pieces, made an eX-
cunion down the Lower Mississippi river, five
miles below Columbus, KY. On returning, when
near Columbus. some Of the machinery Of the
boat broke, and the boat drited ashore. While
the machinery was being repaired, the Captain
and cut down a Secession flag which was flying
on the shore, and brought il to this city. No at
tempt was made to prevent their taking the

II is reported by passengers who have arrived
from Columbus since City Alton left, that great
excitement prevailed among the citizens, and
that a locomotive and cars were Immediately
despatched to Union City to convey rebel troops
TO Columbus.
No rebel troops were seen by exeursionists be-
tween here and Columbus,

The Memphis Avalanche of June lothcOn-
tains the following additional evidence of
the wants of the Confederate army at Ran
dolph, go miles above Memphis where there
are 3, 1000 (Amateur) soldiers:
1t would be infinitely better for the ne
groes of this city to go to Randolph volun-
tarily, than to be forced into service They
will only have to do the SAINT labor that IS
imposed upon the soldiers many Of whom
were never before in their lives subjected to
any. Those who voluntarily 60 up to the
Fort will be discharged as soon as the forti-
fcations are finished, but those forced to
enter the service, will be retained in 1t as
long as t~hecompany to which they may be
attached. We advise the ~able-bodied color
ed population to report themselves this
morning on board the IngOmar, and any
person who can send up a slave for ten OF
twenty days even, should do so at once.

FruIt Pro.peets IN We,lern Ner York.

The progress OF the season indicates an
unusual scarcity of fruit next autumn. 4 fair
yield of apples may be expected, but pears,
peaches, cherries and plums, are nowhere.
In Chautauque county the sudden changes
of last winter affected the trees severely,
killing the large proportion of the buds so
that few leaves lave put forth, and the trees
present a sorry appearance. But the great
est injury appears to have been upon grapes.
Isabella and CataEba vines have been killed
nearly to the ground. They are sprOuting
from the old wood, but the hope of fruit is
nearly aralhilated-BgfdlO Commercial I'D

AFTERNOON SESSION.

MIR. Dorsey of Monongahela offered a resOlu-
ton declaring it to be a part of the business OF
this convention TO make the requisite preparatory
arrangements for separation from Virginia and
the formation of q new State, composed of the
counties represented here; said preliminary ar
engagements, when completed, to be admitted for
approval TO the legislature now convened in this
city, as the only loyal and legitimate legislature
of Virginia; thence to the Congress Of the uni
ted States. This mode was preferable TO recon
strueting the Government of Virginia was equal
" legal, and relieves us from an OFeTburdening
State debt, no part of which Western Virginia
owes in equity, and the no less disastrous cOnse-
quences of reputation.
These resolutions, at the request Of several
members, were Withdrawn for the present.
After the appointment of a committed of thir-
teen to prepare business, the convention adjourn
ed to meet at 10 O'Clock tomorrow at the United

The destruction of human life in India by
wild beasts is almost beyond belief. Within
the last two years nine hundred and ninety
nine children have been killed by wolves in
the punjaub, and a large number of adults.
Although the Government pays a consider
able sum for the destruction OF wild animals,
they do not seem to diminish in numbers
In 1859 there were killed IL tigers, 1872
leopards, 1877 bears, LIZA wolves and 2 bye
nas-total 1857. In 1860 there were killed
IS tigers, l63 leOpards, $50 bears, and 2,esO

so help us God.
The taking of the oath by each delegation was
very Impressive, and convinced all spectators that
the convention meant business. The business
marked out by the convention seems 10 be a
provisional government for the whole State; the
deposi'io ion of the present State authorities who
are in rebellion; and the entire recognition of the
municipal government No diversity of senti-
ment on this programme has been heard.

CAvEp m.-Honorable Cave johnson,
of Tennessee, who Immediately after the
seizing of Government property South, re-
commended and insisted that the property
should be Immediately retaken, has gone
with John Bell over to the enemy. In a re-
cent letter he announces his purpose to vote
for Secession and denounced the Admins
trati0n for pursuing the very COURSE which
he insisted months ago, that it must pursue.
Thus one by one, the supposed patriots of
other days succumb to treason and blacken
their fame for all time to come.

that even the Court yard in that city is COW

SECESSION SIGNAL LIGHTs-The members
of the New York Ninth Regiment have dis
covered a system of night signals used by
s-ecessionists. The Worlds Washington
correspondent writes:
They consist of red, green and powerful
white lights They were first noticed by the
pickets, and on the second night attracted
universal attention. The white light was
first shown, then the red, then the green,
with equal intervals of time between. Col
Stiles took a full company and proceeded in
the direction of the lights. They found q
house with several persons in it who all
disclaimed any knowledge of the lights, and
denied having any. No lights have been
seen since, however. 1t is supposed that
there was a line o. Communication from there
to Harper Ferry. Measures have been taken
to find out the meaning of the signals, and
if they occur again, to arrest the parties con-
cerned.
