FALL1BrLrrr OF YfIrAEr CRITIersM.-Under this
head the New Orleans Times is little severe on Gen
Joseph E. Johnston, because of his having assumed,
at the of the war in Europe, that the
French sodiesrad officers were superior to those of
Prussia. 1t goes on to say:
We thought at the time this was remarkable state
ment for gentleman who processes to be the military
critic and historian of age and certainly of
section. The elevation of such snowy Sabreurs and
Algerine heroes as MacMahon, Bazaipe, Montaubon
and Canrobert over such veteran, experienced and
scientific military chieftans as Won Moltke, Stenmetz
Falkensein, Blumenthal Won Room Charles Frederick
and other renowned Prussian leaders, who have de-
voted their whole lives and talents to the study and
practice of military operations large SCALE whilst
the French chiefs dancing attendance upon his
Imperial Majesty, reveing nthe luxuries and gaeties
of Paris and enjoying the rich rewards of their achieve
ments over hostile barbarians Of dashing bravery
and reckless theatrical display of physical endurance
and personal galiantry, would seriously damage the
fame Of ordinary civil historian, and much more
that of military critic and scientist
The result certainly seems to have proved that Gen.
Johnston wrong, but was the Times too modest
to give expression to its thoughts " at the tme?n

PRUssIAN AND FRENCH SoLD1ERs.-The following ex-
tracts, which clip from Appletons journal of the
18th inst, will go far to explain many things that have
disappointed the American people during the progress
of the present As the key of the situation it s
more suggestive and perhaps more conclusive than
the old military theory of superanuated generals
defective commissariat and an imbecile executive:
The Bureau of Education at Washington furnishes
statistics which may enable to compare the French
and Prussans in regard to this point. According to
the returns of the French Minister of Public nstruc
ton in 1865, than thirty per cent. of the con
scripts could neither read nor write. In Prussia in
lS66-67, the proportion of iterate conseripts was
only four per cent, the ratio varying from Oh in
Saxony to IL. Is in Posen.
The discipline and daily routine Of exercise for this
Prussian army to all foreigners source of never
cleansing policing the quarters and correcting any
Irregularities which may have arisen out of the pre-
vious days duties Later in the forenoon the hours
are given to study-arithmetic geography, geometry
theory and practice of military science and even sing
ing is not neglected Great importance is attached
the studies of soldiers, and by attaining certain
advancement in knowledge each one after satisfactory
examination shorten his of service from one
to two years In the afternoon of each day the bodily
culture is attended to, and this consists not only of
purely military drill but also of every variety Of phys
ical exercise calculated to add either strength sup
pleness to the human form running, leapng, vauting,
balancing, bayonetexercise, lifting, shooting bending
altogether such an nnumerabe variety of move
