War Notes..

The weather is bitter cold in the depart
ments of France and the ground covered with
snow.
There is a report that the Prussans are
marching on Havre, but it is improbable, as
the port is too well defended by the navy to
make it tenable by them.
The Prussian army were expected to begin
their movement on Tours on Wednesday last.
The French military officers now prisoners
OF war in Germany protest against the restora-
tioniof the Bonapartes.
The Prussians have exacted 100000 franc:
as an indemnity in burgundy for the expul.
sion of the Germans
Most of the influential citizens of Berlin are
preparing an ad to King William tagging
the immediate bombardment of Paris and thus
the prevention of any further unnecessary
waste Ofhuman life.
1t is reaffirmed that the Prussian govern
ment has ordered from America one hundred
mitrailleuses and a.milliOn of metallic cartridge
es. The continued warlike preparations of all
the Eastern powers canse suspicious in Eng
land that the conference will be unable to set
tie the Black Sea question. There is little
confidence in diplomacy.
A correspondent writes of the recent bat
ties near Paris, in which the Saxons showed
desperate valor, that not much have the Sax
ons gained. The Wurtembergers hold one
end of Champigny, but Brie stands empty and
desolate. There were French in it this morn.
ing; later there werer tSaxops-that is all.
The number of dead I cannot ascertain, but
the German wounded were over 1000. The
French, if they lost fewer killed and wounded,
lost 1000 prisoners. Had it been possible for
the Saxons to hold Brie, the French advance
would have been impossible. It's thanking fire
would have prohibited them from breasting
the slope towards Villiers. The French had a
mitrailleuse somewhere on the rlain. At any
rate, the day'z work was final failure of the
French hopes. The German line stood every
where unbroken. Paris was no more free. than
before.

DIR. Il. HI HchencE

OF Philadelphia, the proprietor of Schenck's Pulmo.
mic Syrup, Schenck's Mandrake Pills, and Schcnck's
Seaweed Tonic, will be professionally at his old
rooms, No. 81 Hanover street. Boston, the 18th of
December. All who desire to consult DR.. Schenck,
or Of having thorough examination OF their lungs
by the aid OF his Respirometer, should avail them
selves OF this opportunity, as the Doctors stay is
necessarily limited to one day.
Those who ieel DESTROYS of ascertaining the precise
condition of their lungs-whether they are affected
merely by disease of the bronchial tubes, resulting
from torpid liver, whether the disease is pulmO-
nary pleuratc, or tubercuculous csnsumption-can
have their desires grated by calling Dr. Schenck.
His large and extended experience in the treatment
OF pulmonary complaints together with the invalu-
able aid derived from the of his Respironometer,
enables him to confidently determine the precise To-
cation and character OF diseases OF this nature and
to prescribe the proper remedies.
DIR. Schenck does not purpose making regular pro-
fessonal visits to Boston in FUTURE his home prac-
tice being SO extensive to demand his entire time
and attention. He will, however, when reouested
to do so make professional visits to parties at ais
lance. He would state that bad cases of diseased
lungs can be cured by the proper use of his mcdi-
cines, and by the patients carefully avoiding the
taking of cold by remaining in the house until a
thorough cure is affected He also desires to state
that when he advises patients to remain in the
house, it is not because the effect of his medicines is
to open the pores and thereby induce colds but be-
cause, when lungs are diseased, exposure to the
open air necessarily produces inflammation and as
natural result, the patient must die.
The Doctors charge for thorough examination
with the Respironometer is five dollars, but all ad-
wee free, d. 10sn4t

MUTINY ON BATH SHn.-A mutiny &C.
CURED on board ship Shatemuc, of Bath, lying
in New York harbor, on Friday, as the ship
was ready to proceed on her voyage to Bristol,
England. John Smith, one of the crew, while
intoxicated attacked George Hall, the first
mate, with a marlin spike but Wright the Sec
ond mate disarmed Smith. Wright was then
attacked by three of the crew and in return res
cued by the first mate. The mutineers were Or
dered below when Smith attacked Wright
with sheath knife and Wright struck him
with a cutlass cleaving his skull to the bone.
A general attack of the whole crew on the
mates was then threatened but the resolute
frmness of the mates had the effect of staying
the murderous crew until the next morning
when the frigate Guerrere, in answer to sig
nal for assistance, sent a boat with file of
marines and surgeon on board the Shatemuc.
The surgeon dressed Smiths wounds but the
commander of the marines refused to arrest
the mutineer. A police boat soon came along
side the Shatemuc and arrested the ringlead-
ers, also Wright, the second mate. Smith will
not probably recover. The crew are still dis
posed to mutiny and say that they are afraid
to go to sea with the mates as they might
abuse them on the voyage The crew request
ed the harbor police to remain ON board and
defend them. Most of the crew were drunk at
the time of the mutinV

A NEWSPAPER CURIosITY.-The necessi-
ty of holding communication with Paris by
means of balloons has led to a number of Gu
rious adaptations of other things to that cir
cumstance. Journalism is certainly as fexi-
be in resources as anything can be, and it is
not surprising, therefore, to find newspapers
printed on the thinnest paper and of trilng
weight, for the purpose Of adapting it to the
new means of conveyance. Such paper is
LIE Balloon Poste, Journal du Siege de Par
is, pubter pour les Departments ct pEtran-
ger, the fourth number of which, published
some weeks since, is before us. 1t is issued
Sundays and Thursdays, and is small quarto
printed on only one side of the sheet, with
one column blank for private correspondence.
1t contains merely journal of the events of
the siege for a week. The idea of leaving
one page blank for private correspondence
is not, we believe new one, but was made
use of as long ago as 1910 by Boston printer
named Stimson.

FROM AUsTRALIA.-The Sydney dates to
October 31st, say that the South Wales Fed
Grafton commission recommend the colonies to
make application to the European powers to
declare the colonies neutral in the event Of
England becoming belligerent. The defence
commission recommended the employment of
torpedoes for defensive purposes in various
ports A number of German vessels were laid
up in Sydney. Mr.. Hall had obtained four
years fixed contract for the Camornia mail
service, government contributing $4,000 an
nually. Steamer Avoca had sunk steamer
Waimed in entering the harbor of Sydney.
Prince Alfred's ship would return home in
November after repairing. The United States
steamer Reseca had arranged the Fijian diff
Guilty and gone to Valparaiso. The harvest pros
poets were good. In Victoria fearful food
had occurred involving great losses of life and
property. The revenue of the year had dimin-
ished. Steamer Avoca sunk brig Challenge in
Victoria barbor by collision. A nugget of gold
weighing $50 ounces had been found at Berlin,
in South America. The trans-Australian
telegraph is being rapidly constructed. In
Queensland the new dggings were proving
good. There has been several new deposits Of
copper discovered. The cotton crop of New
leland is satisfactory. The rebellion had
about come to an end. A large order for
Michigan wagons and Chicago agricultural i'm
PIGMENTS has been sent from Auckland.

TERRIBLE STORM IN Observation-Disclosures
from Aspinwall to the 9th inst. have been re-
ceived. The weather was frightful and reports
OF shipwreck were constantly coming in. The
American schooner scudder was totally lost;
crew saved. Schooner Ida was also lost. A
sailor wss washed overheard from schooner
Isabella and drowned. Steamer Henry Chaun-
cey. from New York, made three uneffectual
attempts to get into the harbor on the Sd, and
at last went to sea to escape the fury of the
storm. Tugboat Grumbler, of Philadelphia,
which sailed the I'd inst, is supposed to have
been lost with all on board. 1t is feared that
the Gillian steamer Liniari has been lost in
the South Pacific with all on board. Several
steamers in the harbor of Aspinwall went to
sea for safety.

SENATOR HAMLIN.-It has been conject-
ured that Senator Hamlin must be In poor
health or he would not ask to be relieved from
further service on the Committees of the Sen
ate. We are glad to learn that the distin-
gaished Senator never enjoyed better health
than at present. We are of the opinion that
he asked to be relieved from further commit
lee work because the positions assigned him
were not such as his commanding influence.
acknowledged ability and great experience in
public life fairly entitle him TO- But this is
merely conjecture. Whether he was dissatis-
fed or not we have no certain knowledge. but
his constituents have felt that he was not
treated with sufficient consideration.

but she is bright and intelligent and altogeth-

husband; but if she didn't worry him to death
IT would be because he was made of wood.

IHE Argus is training its wooden guns on
Gen. Grant with about as much effect as if a
pop-gun were discharged against Mt. Wash
ington. We only declare what all intelligent
men know when we say that the administra-
ton is stronger than it was four months ago.
Since Madison there have been only two or
three Presidents who have not had an onno-
sition Congress elected at the end of their
first two years. Gen. Grant is now sure of
the support OF Congress during his first term,
and is morally certain Of a reelection. He is
a practical revenue reformer" and an honest
man who enjoys the confidence of all but re-
dictionary Democrats and a few soreheads.

A FRENCH VICTORY CLAMED.-The Tours
government made the following intelligence
public on Friday:
Gen. Charosey reports an attack all along
the line from Meung to st. Laurent des Bots
last night. To-day the principal effort of the
enemy was at Beauzency. The Germans were
strong at that place, having eighty-six cannon
Their forces consisted of two divisions of Ba-
varians, one division of Prussians, two thou
sand cavalry and strong reserves. They were
under command Of Prince Frederick Charles
and the Duke of Mecklenburg. The enemy
was repulsed and driven beyond Grand Echar-
tel. We sleep tonight on the positions we had
this morning. The prisoners taken acknowl-
edge that the Prussians suffered heavy LOSSES
The battle lasted till night have not yet re-
ceived complete list Of our losses. We may
be attacked again tomorrow but we are pre-
pared to resist to the utmost. The Prussians
have been driven from MorOlles

For some time past electricians have been
trying to discover a way to send two messages
at the same time along single wire. The
Athepaum understands that the problem has
been solved by Mr.. G. f. Varley, who has de-
vised method by which four currents at once
can be delivered by single wire. And now,
we suppose, it will soon be learned how two
locomotives can pass each other on the sane
track--something which has been repeatedly
tried, but never accomplished with entire sue
cess.

they adopt they exhibit wise discrimination. In
