The REoRG ANIMATION, OF THE FRENCH
ARMY The FRENCH journals have repeatedly
of latereferredat to a letter of the Emperor
Napoleon to the Minister of War on the lreor-
ganization Of the French army According
to the LiJerte this letter appe ar very short
ly inthe MOniteur, and will treatthe problem
which consists in having "the least number Of
soldiers in time of peace, and the greatest
NUM- Der in time Of war" The Emperor con-
templates the organization OF a military force
which will bearthe title of Garde Rationale
Mobile, and which will be composed of
upward Of a million. Of armed men. The
existing law OF recruiting will be maintained,
but the period OF military service will be re-
duced from seven toysix years. No exemption
will be allowed for, the new reserve distn-
gushed by the name Of the Garde Nationa,e
Mobile, and which will include all French
men, to the number ofthree millions, between
twenty and thirty years of age, minus the.
900, 900 soldiers from the six contingents, and
minus the. 800 900 or 100000 infrm and de-
formed persons who are obliged tobe exempt
ed from all military services, which will reduce
number to 100000 Frenchman of from 20
to 30 years of age as tho whole number avail
able. The Garde Rationale Mobile will be
commanded by officers. of the army, and the
recruits will be taken to the depots of the
regiments ofthe line. These National Guards
will be drilled during certain number of
days every year at the principal places of the
canton or department. Such are according
to the iLibertie, the basis pointed out in the
Imperial letter for the future organization of
the French army; forming a compromise be-
tween the system actually in force and the
Prussian system. ha2,l 1l. ,.g

Fellow-Citizens: The Intelligence
of the terrible overthrow of treason in Penn
sylvania--the sublime civic sequel to the
browning victory of Gettysburg, the second
and final surrender of therebel sympathizers,
will forever and justly settle many disputed
questions. 1t permanently established the
fact that the Government Of the United
States is vested in the American people and 10
their representatives in Congress assembled,
and not in corrupt Executive; and upon this
strong and granite foundation we shall now
proceed to ,fortify against the 'inroads of time
and the attacks OF treason the following truths
and covenants; That the Government Of the
people by the people and for the people shall
not perish from the. earth; that cruel and re-
vengefu traitors defeated in battle shall not
be restored to ruin the country they attempt
ed to destroy; that when our forefathers de-
clared man capable of self government they
rejected the heresy OF human slavery and
pledged equal political rights to all their sue
cessors; that hereafter the citizen represented
In the State and national legislatures must be
clothed with the rights OF cltlzenshlp; that all

Here lies the Yankee monitor in

long breaths, wipe their sweaty brows
and devoutly thank heaven that the
Americans arc SO friendly; because
it is perfectly evident to every one
that sees the Miantonomoh that the
whole British navy could not hinder
her from steaming up to London
bridge and tossing her big shells in-
to the dome of st. Panl's into the
Bank of England, into the House of
Parliment, into Buckingham, St.
James Palaces, and wherever she
cared to plant those pretty seeds of
desolation.

troublesome things, we publish the
following cure for them, which we

tincture of lobelia and wrap The part
effected, with cloth thoroughly sat
urated with the tincture, and the

he has known it to cure in scores of

THE FIDGETs.-The best definition
of the fidgets is irritability of To-
comotion." An eminent physician,
who thus defined it, in humorous
episode attached to more serious
dissertation, further remarks that it
els disorder peculiar to females, cs-
pcially to those who arc called your
mighty good kind of women. 1t is
the result of two passions, hope and
fear; and a mind continually vibrat-
ing between these, producesthe dis.
case" The whole pleasure of this
kind of woman is hustle. They plan
their work, neither for the benefit of
the house nor of those who do the
labor, but to divert their own minds
to keep everybody in motion. They
hate to see anybody in the house en-
joying a moments leisure, for idle
ness is, in their opinion, & agreater sin
than vice itself, and all leisure is
idlcness. But the fidgets is disease
which is not confined to woman.
The poor sailors speaks OF what they
call tdgey captains, who, after all ne-
cessary tasks are done, will actually
put things into mischevious disorder
for the sake of keeping their men
constantly at work. The only cure
for the fidgcts is said be hard labor,
constantly pursued. When the pa
tient is wearied with toll, they have
no more irritabillity of locomo-
ticn," and prefer taking their rest to
fatiguing themselves still moro by
driving others to their tasks.
