with Prussia about one hundred and fifty
to two hundred Thousand. Italy has armed
six hundred thousand men, and means to
operate Extensively against Austria with at
least four hundred Thousand. There you
have on the side Of Prussia and Italy an
armed array of eleven hundred thousand
men, on the side oflAustria ahd themiddle
and southern German States an equal num-
Der, or about, two millions two hundred
thousand human beings fpitted against
each other. .,1 f-..r.I ri
The first Napoleon is reported to have
said that'he never had q General who could
ably command fifty thousand men. We
await the development of impending histo-
ry to learn of the men who can successfully
WELD such immense cohorts. M pfi' lrs-
We desire, however, more especially to
call attention TO this fact, that with the in
creased perfection In the construction Of
firearms and the means of destroying life,
the size of armies for actual war has also
increased. Isit because we are nearing the
system of the ancients, to which we have
referred, that numbers decide che contest?
Are we about, so far as war is concerned, to
adopt the tactical system OF overwhelming
masses, as practiced by Tamerlane, Attilla
and Soliman? Is It because the long range
and precision of the rife and rifled cannon
have rendered personal courage and ihdi-
vidual prowess and bravery so useless, that
only when massed together In legi0ns by
the half-million any hope of success re-
NAMED? These are interesting questions,
and we hope somebody may be able to an-
swer them convincingly-N. Y. Times.

humble terms; our repeated petitions have
been answered only by repeated injury. A
prince, whose character is thus marked by
every act which may define tyrant, Is un-
fit to be the ruler of free people.
Nor have we been wanting in attention
to our British brethren. We have warned
them, from time to time, of attempts made
by their legislature to extend an unwar-
rantable jurisdiction over us. We have
reminded them Of the circumstances of
our emigration and settlement here. We
have appealed to their native Justice and
magnanimity, and we have conjure1 them,
by tue ties Of our common kindred, to dis
avOw these usurpations, which would in
evitably interrupt our connections and cor
respondence. They, too, have been deaf to
the voice of justice and dconsanguinity. We
must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity,
which denouncPs our separation. and hold
them, as we hold the rest of mankind, enc
mics In war, in peace, friends.
We, therefore, the representatives. of the
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, in
GENERAL CONGRESS assembled, ap-
pealing to the Supreme Judge of the
World for the erectitude of our intentions,
do, in thename, and by the authority of the
good people of these colonies, solemnly
publish and declare, That these United
Colonies are, and of right ought to be,
FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES;
that they are absolved from all allegiance
to the British crown, and that all political
conneXion between them and the state of
Great Britain, is, and ought to be, totally
dissolved; and that, as FREE AND IN
DEPENDENT STATES. they have full
power to levy war, conclude peace, con-
tract alliances, establish commerce, and to
do all other acts and things which IN
DEPENDENT STATES may of right do.
And, tor the support Of this declaration,
with firm reliance on the protection of
DIVINE PROVIDENCE, we mutually
pledge to each other, our lives, our for
tunes, and our sacred honor.

the Houston Telegraph under date of Jan.
9th:
The news from the country show that
Christmas passed of quietly, except in the
parish Of ST. James, about 60 miles above
this city. The freedmen there turned out
in considerable numbers, rebellious and
armed, and refused to obey the orders OF
the officer Of the Froedmen's Bureau. The
facts were reported here, and white troops
have been sent up to quell the riet.
lam informed that a large emigration
may be expected in Texas, Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi Alabama and Georgia, from Ger
many. One colony of Germans has arrived
here, and gone into the interior TO work on
plantations and on very satisfactory terms.
A German and Swiss emigration is prcpar-
ing, also, from Ohio for Mississippi Whilst
conceding the benefits VIC are to receive
from a large emigration of industrious
whites from the North and from Europe it
seems to me simply absurd to expect enough
cmigrants 10 meet the lsbor requirements
Of the South Coolies viii not be much Of
an improvement. We cant get enough of
them. Besides, they have a disagreeable
habit OF dying like dies, without any prs
vious warning, and OF committing suicide,
dozen at the time, if they get displeased
with their employers. No, the negro is
with US; is bound 10 remain with US; and
just ss long as we hold him alOOf, and make
him consider his former owner bis enemy,
just 50 long as we viii give the Radicals a

US and them in hot water.
The other night Odd Fellow Hall was fill
ed with a most beautiful house-all towns
people-for a grand ameteur concert for the
benefit Of the widows and orphans Of Lou
sianians who died in the Confederate cause.
The concert went of admirably. One Of the
features was the HB0nnie Blue Flag" on the
piano. At the first few notes, the most
dsafsning applause filed the vast Hall, re-

Our City is being infested with Freed
men and women, until forbcarance has
long ceased TO be virtue, and in view Of
that fact, and upon the suggestion of Capt.
Dilley U. S. Army commanding compa-
ny Of cavalry, now on duty at this place,
the city council was convened on Wednes-
day night last, and passed an Ordinance
to meet the emergency. Capt. Dilley who
was present at the meeting, assures the
council that he will assist the civil author
itics in carrying out any proper effort to
clear out the droves (there is no other term
to appropriately designate thcm) of negroes
that are lettering about town refusing to

The Last Eruption Of Mount Etna.

NJ. Foudue, who visited Sicily at the time Of
the last eruption Of Mount Etna, has published
an interesting paper on the subject in the ReUue
Contemporaries. he saws
During our Journey around Sicily the appear.
ance OF the cru ption had been considerably mOdi-
ned. The lava, which seemed nearly stopped az
the mc ment of our departure, had suddenly ac-
qured new intensity about the middle OF March.
In the course OF two da, an enormous stream OF
lava had traN ersed the interval comprised be-
tween the Due Mont and Mount Crslmo, and
then pass ng westward OF that eminenCe, mad
dashed into deep ravlne IN the direction of
Linrua Grossa. II 1t had continued so Tor a
few hours longer, the fiery element would have
naturally got INTO the midst of vineyards and
houses hy merely following the slope OF the soil.
Terror was at its heig ht among the people threat
ened win the catastrophe. They being grossly
ignorant and superstltOus, imagined that st.
Ignatius the patron OF Piedmont had turned
the commune of which he was the protector.
The measure OF eXpelling his image from the
chapel Della Vpna was being seriously discussed
Had II been carried out 1t would inevitably have
led to a bloody collision between the inhaDi-
tants OF those two places; but, fortunately, the
fiery torrent suddenly stopped.
"0ther streams we're subsequently formed
higher up, and during our second stay at Mount
Etna the lava invaded the whole space that had
hitherto been spared between Mount Frumento
and Due Mont, leaving oPly here and Jhere a
few hilloCks still covered " ith vegetation like
islands in a waste. The eruptions OF lava, either
in solid or liquid form, gradually abated.
Thus, while at the outset stones elected from the
lower crater rose into he air to the height of
eighteen hundred metres, that Is about forty
times the altitude OF the column of the Place Ven
dome, towards the end they hardly reach the brim
of the crater; so that about the middle OF MAY |
could stand on its highest crest and make trigo-
nome trical Surypys.n
