Old European Congresses and the New

There are curious particulars OF pre-
vious settlements of what is called the
Eastern question:" that are not gen.
orally remembered. AT the congress of
diplomats which made the treaty Of
June, 1871 (by which the naturalization
of the Black Sea was first formally es-
tablished, though in different form
from what Russia now complains Of
Prussia was one of the Powers repre-
sented, while Italy was motor there
was no kingdom of Italy then. In 1858,
when the Gar Nicholas tried to unite
England and Austria with himself in
combination for parceling out the
Turkish empire, he regarded his broth
er-in-law, the King of Prussia, with SO
much contempt that he did not trouble
himself to ask his aid or cOnnivance.
And so little was Prussia regarded by
the other powers in the spring of 1856,
that she was not at first invited to send
delegates to the Congress Of Paris, and
was only admitted toward the close Of
the deliberations, on motion OF GOrts-
chakoff, in order to have her signature
to the treaty which GortschakOff now
proposes to break. Yet in the Paris
Congress, Victor Emanuel, still only
King of Sardinia, was represented by
Cavour from the first. Bismarck had
not then risen to notice, outside the
narrow limits Of Prussia, while Theirs,
who had been prominent in the pro-
ceedings of 1871, as Prime Minister to
Louis Philippe, was ignored in 1856 by
Walewski and the other able instru-
ments of Louis Napoleon, then at the
height Of his power.
In the coming Congress-if it comes
Bismarck is to be an important pow
er, and the veteran Theirs is also likely
to have share. 1t would be odd, too,
if Earl Russell, who, as a member Of
Lord Melbourne's minority admins
tration" in the summer of 1871, had so
much to do with the treaty of that year,
should now come into the ministry
again and take part in another "settle-
ment" of the perpetual Eastern ques-
ton.

What it Costs to Kill Man in War.

We have some curious statistics from
French author, writing on cOtempO-
rary wars, as to what it costs to kill a
man. He takes the whole expenditure
for each war, and divides that by the
number Of men killed on the field Or
whose death was owing directly to the
war. In the Crimean war, where
many were congregated in close quar-
tiers, he estimated that $4,000 were
killed, at the cost of $2l65 per man.
Putting the deaths in our late war at
ISL 200, which is rather low estimate,
each was purchased at cost of $18, 725.
In the late Mexican and South Ameri-
can wars, the expense for killing man
was $500. In the Danish war $1,000
lives were lost at an average of $4,000.
In the Austrian-P russian campaign of
1866, which ended at Sadowa, $4,000
was the price per death. 1t will thus
be seen that it costs this government
more to extinguish one life than any
Of the other countries mentioned, and
that the cost of killing man in any of
them would maintain several in times
Of peace.

Sam and Louis were having o high old time in
Bull street, when the report of the torpedoef
