War Department is thinking of refusing tc
give her credit for thu scum thus folsteo
upon the public service. The fact is that
nearly all these imported mercenaries have
deserted to the enemy, under the liberal

that such as have been unable to desert are
utterly unable or unwilling to fight. In a

all that were in the party back to Peters

that they knew nothing of our quarrel and
have no interest in it; that they were hired
in Europe for peaceful and non ,belligerent
labors on railroads, canals, &c u and that
they have been utterly swindled and cheat
ed in the manner of their being induced to

Excitement In Germany.

A letter from Berlin gives curious sc>
count of the excitement that prevails in
Germany, respecting the execution of Null
Ter. 1t is stated: I
Wherever one goes Muller is all the talk.
In the beer houses and cafes, in the read>
ing rooms and restaurants, in public pla
ces of assembly. in private circles, and 10
the streets, the conversation turns almost
exclusively on this one topic The words
Judicial MURDER" 'hatred of the English
against the Germans" "atrocious butchery
OF an innocent man" ''revenge for political
humiliations"-these and similar expires
sions are in every body's mouth. Vengeance
is vowed on England in retaliation for the
foul crime she is about to commit. Noepi
tibet is to strong or too black to characterize
the base cruelty and criminality attributed
to the British government for determining
upon the death of a man who is now firmly
believed by most people in this country to
be completely innocent of the crime with
which he has been charged, and for which
he stands condemned .rre-.
The scene in Berlin, on Monday night, af.
ter the news of the execution had been re-
ceived, is thus described: -.a
The intelligence few like wild6re round
the hall. "He's BANGED" went from mouth
to mouth. A sickening feeling seemed to
overpower every heart, and then followed
an outburst, howl of bitterness. and fury,
rage and Indignation at the perpetfatien OF
that which all felt to be a horrible tragedy,
q judicial murder. l thought it prudent on
my own part to retire very speedily from
the scene. = In the momentary irritation Of
the public shall not be surprised to hear
of their committing some excuses in their
frenzy. II some Englishman is lynched or
maltreated, it will be to me no matter of
astonishment in the least, nor shall I be at
all startled TO find that a frensied mob had
vented its displessure BY sacking the British
Legation in the Leipaiger Platz. / found
On my way home that the excitement was
equally wild wherever vent. All manner
Of rumors are floating about. The King is
said to have written an autograph letter to
Queen Victoria, and the case is expected to
be taken up automatically. The bitterness
