THE WEATHER AND THE WAR.-An-
other and an important element will
o o be introduced to the European
war question. 1t Is the approach Of
winter. Once before has France been
saved by tho inclemency Of the
weather, and 1t l. on the cards, that
rain. snow. and frost, may again prove
valuable auxilliaries to her. In 1872,
when the Duke OF Brunswick was
marching on Paris, and Verdun had
fallen, and confusion reigned In Paris,
Dpmouriez checked tie advance OF the
enemy by seiziag and holding the
passes of the Argonne forrest; but his
defense might have proved futile If ne
had not been aided by the advent OF
equinoctral storms, which transformed
the. Champagne country into a swamp.
and rendered military operations all
but impossible. There appears at this
time every Indication that the war Will
be continued. for some considerable
period, and this continuation Of hostil-
tiles Involves q winter campaign In a
hostile country. There can be no
question that this Is 4 very serious con-
alteration for Germany, and to some
extent a hopeful one for France,
though the latter would share the dis
comforts and hindrances sustained BY
the former, In = great degree.-Sac.
