The Conscript Laws of Germany,

The arbitrary conscript laws Of Ger
many have had more to do with the
rapid settlement of the Western States
than is generally supposed by those who
have not had their attention directly
called to the subject. Thousands Of
sturdy Teutons, just arriving at the age
which renders them liable to military
service, have exiled themselves from the
land of their birth, and are now helping
to work out the great destiny OF the
United States. This cause will continue
to operate favorably to our country, for
the severe conscript laws of Prussia have
been extended over the whole OF recon-
structed Germany, and are causing
trouble in regions which have hitherto
been comparatively free from such des-
potic military rule. Two escaped con-
scripts recently took passage on an
American ship, but were surrendered to
the Prussian military authorities on de-
mand of that Government. The effect o.
such laws can only be to induce young
men to leave the country before they can
be legally detained; and in time will
probably lead to some other mode Of re-
CT uiting the army. But this is only
one of the many acts OF laundering des-
potism by which the European Govern.
ments have helped to build up the west
ern world.
The Germans are not averse to mill
tary duty when they are called upon to
fight for a cause worth fighting for. The
readiness with which they answered the
"call to arms" at the opening OF the
rebellion, and the patience and zeal with
which they fought during the war for
the Union, sufficiently attests their
soldierly qualities. They were then
called upon to fight for principle, and
no race of men ever fought better. But
to be set up as mark in quarrels in
which they have no interest, to spend
the best years Of their lives to make
parts Of pageants for the qualification Of
rulers they detest, and to be used to
maintain system they hate, is thing
Germans will not do if avoidance is pos
sible: Thousands OF those who risked
their lives every day IN the war for the
perpetuation of liberty on the American
continent, had fled from military service
in the old world. The rumors of wars in
Europe will largely swell the volume of
emigration to our shores the coming
year.

The contracts with Southern rail-
road and steamboat companies for the
transportation of mails throughout the
South, which were entered into by the

the work is being faithfully performed.
Gen. sickles' application for Court
OF Ing uiry has not yet been formally de-
cided. His papers are supposed to be
lying in pigeon-hole OF the Presidents

the Court will not be granted. Some
persons think the President does not in
tend to take formal action in the matter
at present, but let it lie along and be
forgotten.
