FRENCH TROOPS. view of posi-
BILE complications on the Mexican
frontier, it may be OF interest to know
what kind of an army Louis Napoleon
is spending his .fee day with at Cha
Ions. The correspondent of the Lon
don Daily Post writes:
''The Flench cavalry is decidedly
inferior to ours, except in numbers.
The best corps they have, in my opin-
Ion, are the Chasseurs Cheval, or
mounted hight troops. They are GER
talnly the ightest of light horsemen,
but extremely well mounted. All that
l have seen have Algerian horses, en-
tire animals, stations, very like the
Arabs, on which the Tenth Hussars
and Twelfth Lancers were mounted
when they arrived at Sebastopol from
India, overland. The horses of the
Chasseurs q Cheval are not mere than
fourteen hands two inches, English
measurement, but they look, fully fif-
teen hands, owing to the men being
SO very small. I am told the French
have seventeen of these corps, each of
which consists of six squadrons of q,
hundred men. That would make ten
thousand men of the most workman
like light horse I have seen in Europe.
There is nothing to be compared with
them IN the Austrian army.
'The Lancers are fine bodv of
men. They have eight regiments of
them, each numbering 600 mon and
horses. The men are much Larger
than the Chasseurs Cheval, more
like our hussar regiments. The Cui-
Tassiers are great heavy fellows, as
numbering, but much more provincial
than our Life Guards, and I should
think quite as useless. The Dragons
l don't admire, although the French
think so highly of them They are
trained to act as cavalry as well as in
fantry, and consequently spoil both.
The artillery cannot hold candle to
our fellows. Even the crack CORPS.
the horse artillery of the Imperial
Guard, cannot be compared for . mo-
ment to our horse artillery. The in
fantry, 1 must admit, is magnificent,
and Is certainly now the best dressed
infantry in Europe. In their firing,
their gymnastic exercise, their bayo,
net, fencing and every other exercise.
the Emperor seems determined to
bring the whole infantry up to the
standard of excellence which was once
to be seen exclusively with the Zou-
aves."

A correspondent of the Louisville
Journal says he overheard the follow
ing conversation between two urchins:
Says one, "Aint you got no grand
mother?" ''No." ''I tell yer," re-
sponded the first, 'they're tip top.
Let yer do as you please; give yer as
much good stuff as yer can eat. and
the more you sarse them the better
they like it."

The Louisville Journal says: s"Two
Northern men, who had opened q
trade store near Tuskeegee, Macon
County, Alabama, detected a negro in
stealing something from their stock.
They tied him up and whipped him
all night with such severity that he
died soon after being released next
morning. The traders afterwards fied
TO Cuba.

The New York Commercial Adrer.
tsser, in an article headed "Our Policy
toward the South says that promi-
nent Confederate general. on being
unexpectedly befriended by . citizen
OF. the North u few days since, replied
to him:
II never expected to receive such
treatment at the North. Could the
South but know and believe that such
is the spirit of your people toward
them, all animosity would cease. and
q lasting reunion would take place.
"Our restored country a." CONT
nues the Commercial A6ue User, 'emay
rest assured that wc cherish none other
than the friendliest feelings toward
theW, apd entertain the iveliest inte-
rest in their welfare md prosperity.
The North never prosecuted the war
IN a spirit of hate or revenge. It was
only when forced to do SO in self-de-
fence that we resorted to arms, and
then not a shot was fred in anger.
With the surrender of the insurgents
and the termination of hostilities, a
spirit Of forgiveness pervaded the
North; and Notwithstanding the sud-
den and terrible removal of the be-
loved head of the nation by Southern
assassins, we have ever since stood
ready and anxious to welcome back
the wanderers to the Union fold
"Whatever may be the apparent
policy of the Government, the people
are disposed to treat the masses of the
restored States in the most lenient
manner; to let them off with the
punishment which they have already
incurred in the loss of property and
slaves. That those in authority are
animated by similar motives, is shown
in their treatment of the rebel leaders.
With but very few exceptions, they
have been liberated and permitted to
return to their homes. Not one of the
civilian offenders whom the terms of
capitulation did not cover has been
put on trial for treason, when both
the South as we'll as the North expect
ed that many of them would be ar
raigned in the tribunal of death. In
various other ways the Government
has shown that it is disposed to treat
the people of the late Confederate
States kindly. An entire absence of
anlmoAty or revenge has been wit
messed in the conduct of President
johnson, who received so much perse-
cution at the hands of the rebels, and
was compelled to fec from his native
State.''

So fat as we have seen.s the men,
bers chosen for tho Convention are
generally 1fen of sound Judgment,
large information and sound discre-
ton. They are certainly among the
best that could be found in the several
communities. Richland has no reason
to be ashamed of, or dissatisfied with.
her choice; and Charleston may felici-
tate herself on the good sense which
has presided over her choice of dele
gates. 1t would be impertinent for
us now to suggest the details of the
work before the august body about to-
assemble in this city. Ofthe solemnity
and permanent import of the duty
before them, they should, and most
probably have, an adequate idea. The
State is about to be launched anew.
for a fresh voyage, under new auspices.
1t is now dependency. It is an in
tegral of vast and powerful consoi-
dated empire, which at one blow has
shivered to atoms all the principles
and tenets which it has always been
proud and pleased to assert; and Under
an over-ruling destiny, to which we
could offer no resistance. We have
succumbed to the decree; we have &C.
cepted the fiat, which we could no
longer gainsay, and yield that submis-
sion which our conscience will not
eonstrue to mean loyalty in the old
|chivalric sense of the word. But our
submission does not the less imply
good faith and the recognition OF the
law. We shall not be false to these
professions, which, however reluctant
ly, have been made by our people;
and with this resolution fixed, our
Convention will no doubt decide to do
all that is required as preliminarily
necessary before the resumption of our
relations with the National Union.
Let US do what is simply necessary,
and attempt no more; and, above all
things, avoid all unnecessary compli-
cations, on topics which might delay
our proper action.

these precautions, properly taken,
are rarely known to. fail. Keep you,
| mind, especially above the MOON We
doubt that the cholera will reach ou,
continent this season. The season is
probably too far advanced, but you
may look for it in New York somei
where about June of 1s66-hardly be-
fore. Our city authorities must, in
the meanwhile, watch its march in
Europe, and take their precautions
accordingly. The quarantine restric-
tions should be enforced with prc-lpf-
ness and frmness whenever the demon
shall reach those ports in Europe with
which our American cities have much
intercourse. The streets and cellars
of town should be duly cleansed.
Houses should be well ventilated and
purified. Ventilation is much more
necessary for publication than drain
age; and few Of our houses are pro-
perly built with regard to this prime
and essential object. Crowded quar-
ters OF town should be distributed,
and where the cholera appears in
country precincts, the inhabitants can
not do better than to take to the pine
woods and go into camp, hutting it in
log cabins. It would be well, mean.
while, if some Of cur most experienced
and scientific physicians should. in all
the towns, give such instructions, in
detail. as to the treatment Of the dis
ease, as to enable the patient to resort
tosome temporary remedies until me-
dical aid can be procared. But, after
all, and before all, prevention is much
more easy than cure; and precaution
will be found more valuable than any
supposed remedies, however excellent
in ordinary maaadies. Cholera is no
ordinary malady. 1t is a winged de-
mon, sent especially, like war, for the
purging of q race, and aims at a moral
result. while acting specifically on the
physical.

world due notice of his approach, and
our people viii do wisely to take their
precautions in advance of his coming.
We were in Philadelphia and New
York, in 1882, when he first made his
appearance on the American CONT
nent. We beheld his horrible aspects,
Witnessed daily the dreadful extent of
his ravages, and the terrible sweep of
his besom,. to which science vainly
strove to offer its impediments. He
swept them away, even as the house
maid sweeps away. with her broom,
The h9i1 web-work of the spider.
From two to three hundred persons
perished dMly i'm those two great cities
in that. season Of his first advent
Twenty-four hours suficed for the
overthrow of the most vigorous frames.
Many perished in less than four hours
after attack. Men and women were
stricken down in the streets, suddenly,
In their usual walks and avocatioqs,
and the collapse followed the blow.
You might See them borne away in
carts, every limb convulsed and
thrown out in all directions, writhing
with spasms Of agony, which soon
became spasms of death. The intem-
perate In food and drink were usually
the first victims. Temperance in all
things, especially diet. avoidance OF
great fatigue in hot weather, moderate
exercise, moderation in every respect.
furnished the only securities. While
no material change should take place
in the daily habit. those guilty of any
excess were required to curb their
appehtes, and endeavor to re-establish
in season the regular exercise of the
digestive apparatus. Coffee was con-
sidered a danger. Black tea was pre-
ferred to green, though we fancy there
was not much danger in the use Of
either. All fermenting liquors were
ayoided-an varieties of food. The
more simple the fo> = more safe
the party. Much col, cent was OBJ
jected to, though the Gu. IS used of an
evening at table had generally small
portion of ginger in them. Each per-
son carried with him, wherever he
went, O small phial of spirits of cam
phor, to which he resorted immediate
ly whenever he felt any abdominal
uneasiness. Eight drops, in cordial
glass Of water, was considered the
proper dose on such occasions. You
were required to avoid all unnecessary
exposure to the sun; to walk slowly;
to keep in at night, and not sleep in
any direct draft of air; to keep a cool
head and warm feet. Above all, you
were not to suffer your mind to brood
with apprehension on the one subject
of danger, or on any subject of annoy
ance.' Deep your mind calm, cheer
full and always properly employed
about your proper business. Bathing
the feet in cold water nightly, at
morning the head, and; if possible,
the whole body, we found beneficial,
and calculated, in the case of most
persons, to determine the blood CRATE
fully to the surface. But your ablu-
tions in cold water should never be
continued more than four minutes,
rubbing of with thick crash towel.
You need not fear cold water, even
when covered with perspiration, pro-
vided you are not /uigued a. well as
heated. The danger does no. lie in
the heated condition of our frame,
but in its temporary exhaustion,
