Discipline Of the Prussian Army.

The Berlin correspondent of the New
\ ork E6ening Post gives us some interest
ing facts about the curious drill of the
Prusslan troops. He says
The discipline and daily routine ofexer-
else OF the Prussian army is to all foreigners
source ofnever- ending wonder. The early
morning is devoted to cleansing cpolicing'9
the quarters, and correcting any irre9u-
larities which may have arisen out of the
previous days duties. Later in the fore
noon the hours are given to study-arith-
matte, geography, geometry, theory and
practice ofmilitary science; and even sing
ing Is not neglected. Great Importance is
attached to the studies of the soldiers, and
on attaining a certain advancement in
knowledge, each one after satisfactory ex-
animation, can shorten his term of service
from one or 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
physical exercise calculated to add either
strength or snppleness to the human form
running, leaping, vaulting balancing, bay
onet exercise, lifting, shooting, bending, al.
together such an innumerable variety of
movements that no muscle of the BODY is
without its daily exercise.
These squad" drills are followed by
company and regjmental parades, and at
short intervals by grand field movements
of brlgades and divisions, and these once
or twice year by grand army movements
with mock battles. have not been fortu-
nate enough to witness any of the grand
tactics, but the exercises in detail, by com
pany, battalion, squadron, or battery, and
in partlcularthea artillery movements seem to
be rs near perfection rs patience and prac-
tee can make them. All this perfection
OF preparatory knowledge and practice
must, Of course have its weight on the
struggle of actual war, but if there is any
ground for doubt as to the power of the
German militia, would it lie in the too
great reliance which is here place on scien-
tlfc knowledge and consequent distrust OF
a quick common sense, which is not too
overburdened with acquired wisdom

This attempted dissolution of the con-
federacy resulted in war which Prussia and
her adherents figured on the one hand and
Austria and her adherents on the other.
This war commend on the 18th OFF une 1866,
10y the Prussians crossing the Hessian from
tier, and was closed by the treaty of Prague,
which was concluded between Prussia &
Austria on the 30th of Aug. of the same
year. The military operations occupied a
! little more than two months, but seldom
within that time in history have issues
so momentous been decided The old
Confederacy was broken up and two new
onesformed, in neither of which Austria,
the former president, now finds place.
AS result of the war between Austria
and Prussia, it may be stated that the lat.
ter power annexed, by right of conquest,
Hanover Hesse- Cassel, Schleswg- Holstein,
Nassau and Frankfort. The North Ger
man Confederation embraces Prussia with
her enlarged territory, Saxony, Mecklen-
burg-Schwerin, Sake Weimar, Mecklen-
burg Strelitz, Oldenburg, Brunswick, SAKE.
Meiningeu, Saxe-Altenburg, Sake Coburg,
Gotha, Anhalt, Schwartzburg- Rudolstatds,
Schwartzburg Sonderhauson, Waldeck,
Reuss (elder and younger line), Schaum-
burg, Bremen and the upper province of
Hesse- Darmstadt These, with Prussia,
constitute what is known as the North
German Confederation.
In the Prussian or North German Con-
federation, as it exists to-day, the general
government is divided into two houses of
legislation--the Federal Council, and
answering to our Senate, whose members are
appointed by the government of each State,
and the Federal Pertinent, elected by uni
versal suffrage. In the Council the differ
ent States are entitled to a number of votes
proportional to their population and
weight in the Confederation, Prussia having
seventeen, Saxony four, Mecklenburg-
Schwerin and Brunswick two each, and
the remaining States one each-a total of
torty-three votes. The King of Prussia is
permanent President, delegating his au-
thority to a Federal Chancellor.
South of the river Main the following
States have formed the South German Con-
federation, viz Bavaria, Wurtemburg,
Baden, Lichtensten, and Hesse Darmstadt,
excepting its upper province, which is a
member of the Northern Confederation.
These States embrace territory about
equal to that of Pennsylvania, and pop
ulation Of 1924, AGO. At the close of the
war Of 1866 the people of these States were
divided in opinion as to the propriety of
entering the North German Confederation,
in view of the oyer-shadowing inhunce of
Prussia.
Austria, which belongs to neither of the
Considerations still retains German pop
ulation of 7,977,675. The provinces of
Upper and Lower Austria, Salzburg, Sty-
ria, Carinthia, Tyrol and Silesia embrace a
German population of about 100000, the
remainder beingdistributed through the
Magyar and Slavic provinces Of the En-

had been removed-these together com
blned to turn quiet, cheerful country
scene into one of the most animated and
picturesque camps it has been my lot TO
witness.
The associations of the French soldier
with peasant life are too intimate to per.
nit him to feel at all ont of place when
thrown among a rural population, and
amid the yellow corn-felds which now call
Tor the sickle, and more backward hop
crop, which occupies large share of Alas
ian cultivation; nor is he likely out of
ignorance or wantonness to enter the I'M
fenced fields where the wheat has not been
cat, or to trample on or injure the growing
crops; he seems stranger and more curious
when IN the. lows he gazes upon the vast
cathedral Of Strasburg, or the quieter but
still handsome Church of Haguenau, which
he is apparently fond Of doing with an APP
probation and reverence Of manner that
might shame many British tourist
In all that witnessed was struck with
the self-sustaining powers of the French
soldier and of his equipments; there was
but little baggage, save that transported
by the men themselves; each mess was com
plete for all purposes of camping and tent
age; it carried its house, its Kitchen. its
magazine, and its three days larder. 1t
does not wait to settle down until HUGE
trains fbaggage- animals have come in, but
wherever six French soldiers find themsel-
yes they are ready to fight until their nine
ty rounds ofChassepot ammunition are ex-
hausted, to cook, or to sleep. The price
pald for this independence ofbaggage. trains
Is that the French soldier himself becomes
a beast of burden.

When Congress adjourned General
Schenck went home and caused the state
ment to be published far and wide that he
would not be a candidate for reelection.
The reason given for this course was that
he was too poor and could not afford it.
Five thousand dollars was not enough to
support him at the national capital. He
wanted an opportunity to make more
money for his support. The Harrisburg
Patriot suggests that it may be that
Schenck's poverty is merely assumed, that
his loud boasts of public virtue are only
sham. "My dear children" pathetically
exclaimed an ancient rat ~ am about to
throw off the cares of public duty and re-
turn to private life. find that my pov-
erty will not permit me longer to maintain
theexpense otoflicial station. Be virtuous
and you will be happy" Wiping his
eyes with his ancient tail the venerable rat
retired from the presence of his family, who
were much affected at the parting. But
one of them, more curious than the rest,
sought out the retreat of the cunning old
rat, and found that he had buried him
self in a great Ohio cheese. 1t appears
that Schencks ruse has had the desired eff
