In private letter to the editor of the New
York Nail, Gen. VIM. Il. Hazen, now in Europe
makes some criticisms upon the style OF warfare
In Europe that has interest, as coming from An
intelligent American officer. General Hazep
visited the battle field OF Sedan, which. he savs
"was not very deadly encounter, many of our
battles SURPRISING 1t in casualties" "Battles
In this country" he continues, "haye little

Fixed positions and light behind covers, but seem
TO be moving al the time. The field showed no
long trenches OF dead, but scattering graves
over the hole deld, which Is rve or six miles In
extent" AS regards the investment Of Paris.
General -Hazen says:
with US The advance posts, the only troops
really in position and under arms are mereiv

One great secret of the superiority OF the Ger

The EIectiOnS.

The returns thus far indicate that the Re-
pubicans have got through the woods with less
loss than they had reason to expect. Their
working majorityin the next House will be about
forty which is doing remarkably well for the sec
Ond year-the trying one-of an administration.
They will not have q twO-third majority to
carry every thing through with a high hand by
the suspension of the rules, and it is Wholesome
for them that they have no.. Another year Of
legislation with such sweeping majority would
have killed them tor the Presidential campaign.
The Democrats have carried their numbers in
the House up from 81 to 92, which is a crumb of
comfort for them, but by no means what they
hoped.

Cheap Rates to New York and hos


We notice with satisfaction that the East
ern rates of fare from Cincinnati over the
popular Erie road have been reduced from
S22. so to 90, 10 to New York, and from
S26, 90 to S21.35 to Boston. This is an
other evidence of the fact that the Erie
Railroad Company are disposed, even at
their own cost, to favor the public. For
several months past they have been fur
nishing the best cars that could be built at
any works in the country; they have been
running them on the shortest possible
time, consistent with safety, between this
city and New York, and now, as will be
seen in the time card in another column,
they reduce the fare to the minimum price
of $20.10
The managers of this road certainly con-
suit the best interest of the travelling pub
lie, and they are therefore entitled to, and
will receive, the appreciation of all intelli-
gent travellers, be they located in New York
or San Francisco. We presume that this
reduction in fare, on the part of the Erie
Company, will be followed, as usual, by a
corresponding one on the part of other
lines.
But it must not be forgotten that the
Erie is the first to inaugurate popular cheap
rates of fare, and that it is, independent of
its other superior attractions, entitled to
the hearty support of the travelling public

Immigration Meeting,

The interest in the subject of immigra
ton has not in the least abated, but in
creased rather of late. The recent action
of the Legislature has given it an en-
coursgiug impetus, and the preference ex-
pressed by immigrants, especially the Ger
mans, for Tennessee over other States have
stimulated those interested to facilitate
their settlement among US. There will be
an immigration meeting at 10 o'clock, A NJ,
on the 2Gth inst, at the Casino, at which
various matters of interest, as more paTticu-
larry efecting our German friends, will be
presented.

The time made by the J. NJ. White for

Other fast boats had made the attempt, but
failure was written on all their efforts. 1t
