TIE CHEvArIER RECOGNITION PANrnLEr-
The London journals in the interest of
the rebels are making a great row over
pamphlet which has just appeared in Paris.
II is written by Michel Chevalier. whose
notions about the South are very visionary.
The journals referred to claim that the pamph-
let was written at the instigation Of the En-
peror Napoleon, and that its appearance de-
notes the speedy action Of France in favor Of
the Davis government We place no more i'm
portance upon this brochure than upon those
which preceded IL and discussed the Polish
question with such an air OF authority. The
organ OF Prince Napoleon has published seve-
raj articles against the invasion of Mexico and
n favor of the North, and pointing out the
dangers Of Intervention to France. As the
Prince is one Of the imperial family, why do
not the London journals, and with more rea.
son, even. assert that these articles indicate
that the Emperor is positively and emphatic
ally opposed to the South. and intends to aban-
don Mexico' The fact Is that these pamphlets
aud articles are merely straws thrown out to
see which way HE popular feeling inclines,
and seldom indicate any fixed purpose on the
part of the willy sovereign Of the French. The
Chevalier pamphleswil give the Official journals
chance to discuss the recognition question
without its being asserted that they do 50 BY
order Of the government, and herein il will have
fulfilled its mission. The popular sentiment
upon the subject win be closely observed. and
Napoleon will have a clue whereby be may. to
a certain extent, guide his future policy. Any
farther than this the pamphlet in question
possesses no great weight or Importance We
have become too much accustomed now to ne
brochure trick 10 take much interest 10 IL

The recent work Of our seigc artillery on
Morris Island is without parallel in the history
Of warfare. The fact that field artillery and
heavy ordnance have reached such perfection
is almost incredible If any one three years
since had ventured TO assert that guns would

when Beauregard had been permitted to en-.
circle that fertilization, without molestation
from its guns, with series of powerful bat
teries, mounted with the heaviest guns then used
by the army, the Northern people were in
doubt as to the ability Of Major Anderson TO
throw shot or shell from his position into the
city Of Charleston. At this time a letter was
addressed to one Of the best authorities upon
the subject in this country-a person who Ia
now engaged in the present operations against
the great rebel stronghold-and the following
is an extract from his reply

. The meeting of Editors in this city

The meeting Of Editors in this city
yesterday, to consider the Rights and Duties
Of the Press as affected by the existence Of
Civil War, was l.rgely attended, though
certain journals were not represented. The
invitation, however, was general the nor
tice ample and those who stayed away
doubtless did so for satisfactory reasons
Though it was not deemed by the majority
expedient to 60 so far nor to cover the
whole ground so fully and explicitly as We
thought best, there was the fullest and freest
comparison of views, AID entire unanimity
attained or evinced as to the conclusions
actually reached. These are, in brief
|. That no journal has a right to incitc,
advocate, abet, uphold, or justify treason or
rebellion against the Constitution, Govern
ment and laws Of the country. 2. That
the right to criticise, censure, condemn
the acts Of those intrustcd with power,
with view to render them more efficient
and faithful in the performance of their
duties or to replace them by better men, is
not suspended or seriously restricted by tho
existence of War; and 3. That the sup
preston by naked military edict of journals
printed hundreds of miles from the seat of
war, is not justified or necessary. If they
commit or abet treason, punish them by
legal process, and do not admit, by arbi-
trary seizure, that they have committed no
otfense known to the laws. So far, there
was entire unanimity; and the meeting
saw fit to go 70 further.-Ne,o York 7ri.

Drilling in the French Army.

DrAAlhS lh the rencn Army.
To enable man to defend himself, he is
made to undergo severe training dur. ng the
first year Of his service, and is forced to at
tend the fencing room five times week
When the provost d'armes judges him suf
ticiently instructed he undergoes an eX.
animation before the Colonel and staff; he
is then expected to combat any adversary
the Colonel may select, and defend himself
not only from the sword but also from the
bayonet and the lance. need not say tina,
the weapons are buttoned and that the man
is padded and protected. II the staff do
not consider the young man skillful enough,
he is bouad to continue daily practice,
while his more fortune comrades are only
required to practice once or twice Il week.
But, during the novt.ate, he is protected
from all bullying. The sergeant and cor
pora'S Of his company are responsible for
any insult or injustice done to "the young
soldier He is looked upon as soldier
child, allowances are made for bis inexpe
ricnce, he is humored, his prejudces are
not abruptly violated, and he is chiefly
taught by example. Independent of this
sort Of teaching, the authorities. in fore ne
the men to attend the f.ncing room, have
auuthc. and u.u.t, noro-- important U,.ject
in view; that is, to accuston the recruit TO
the sight and sound Of weapons meeting
in conhict-to accustom him to see clearly
through mass OF crossed swords and
bayonets and to remain cool while swords
fash, under shocks, unexpected blows, and
rapid orders. a fencing room in which
twenty or thirty couples Of men are prac-
tising is a fair illustration of a melee with
cold weapons. The provost darms dis
perSed about the apartment giving rapid
instructions 70 thrust here, to cut there, to
feint, retreat, advance, parry, halt; the
stamping of feet, the shouts, the dust, and
above all. the energy of everybody, every
man eager in good faith to defeat his oppo-
nent; these things are calculated to accus-
tom the recruit to the tumult of real action.
Similarly the infantry are taught dancing,
not that the men should figure to advan-
tage in a waltz or polka, but to train them
in department and agility, and to teach
them how to navigate through moving
and whirling crowd, and avoid jostlng each
other during rapid movements. The same
may be said Of gymnastics the men are
induced to practise them as a recreation,
but are effectually taught to analyze every
movement Of which their limbs are capable,
to learn their strength. and how to husband
it. The recruit is also taught to swim
Water, when it becomes familiar, is the
best of friends. Soldiers have been known
to march fifteen miles further, after a long
march, under sultry sun, when the Off
GERS have given them orders to bathe 70,

three days the start Of me, therefore l am
alone in camp, hoping for their early re
turn. The 9Th corps is across the river
holding the old lines. What this will
amount to is more than can tell. do
not believe there will be battle unless Gen.
Lee forces one, and doubt his ability to
do that. Hooker must keep their army
where it is until the Vicksburg affair is
settled, and judge by the movements that
he is attempting no move. There has been
heavy firing for the last two days, and
sklrmishing continues briskly all along the
lines neither side attempting an advance,
but both apparently watching each other.
We are simply before the enemy, and
whether We will have battle or not, re-
mains to be seen. If so you will hear of
it ere this reaches you.

the front, therefore adieu | will write
