~ While the war lasted, the Prus-
sian authorities studiously refraincd from
publishing their list of losses; but now
that the contest is over, the truth upon
this subject is beginning to come out.
These losses were terrible In the Prus
sian Guard most Of the regiments lost
more than third of their men, and the
greater number Of these fell in the single
days fighting Of St. Privat. The Third
Army Corps was also terribly punished
in the battles Of Spicheren and Mars Ia
Tour. In these two fights the Forty
eighth Regiment lost all but three out Of
"a officers; and out Of about $500 men,
l ,497 were killed and wounded At Or
leans the Fifty. second Regiment lost IS
officers, Z ensigns, and I,43l men, out Of
about $500 who were present for duty.
At LIE Mans the Thirty fifth Regiment
lost 46 officers, 2 ensigns, and l,267 men.
In the whole Prussisn Guard and Third
Army Corps thereis not regiment that
lest less than 40 officers and 200 men
While the casualties in the cavalry were
generally much smaller, the First Ora
goons OF the Guard lost more than half
its officers and quarter of its men,

more destructive than In any former war
in Europe, though less so than in some

Ex.Secretary Wells in Opposition Ia
Grants Administration.

Hon. Gideon Wells, Secretary of the
Navy during the administration Of Pres
ident Lincoln, comes out in vigorous
letter against Grant and the course of the
Republican party in Congress in respect
to the further reconstruction Of Southern
States. He says:
/ have no respect for those who claim
that it is necessary for Massachusetts or
for others to supervise Virginia and to
take care Of the people of that and other
States in their local concerns. If the
people are incapable of self government,
our system is failure. If the people of
the States respectively cannot make and
execute their own laws, but are to be
governed and controlled in their local
municipal affairs bya central po wer, then
American democracy and American re-
publicanlsm are mere shams and delu-
sions. The union of these States can be
preserved only by maintaining the re-
served and guaranteed rights of the
States. If the Federal government is not
restrained by constitutional limitations,
it is central despotism of unlimited
power and authority The laws of Con-
gress giving the President authority to
introduce military at the elections, and
all schemes by which the central govern
ment assumes to take cognizance of and
to punish offences by Ku- klux organiza
tions, or by others in the States are like
almost every act in what is called recon-
struction, unwarranted, unconstitutional,
centralzing, and revolutionary. Pun
ishmsnt for crimes against the law of
State committed within the jurisdiction
Of State belongs exclusively to the
State, and not to the general government.
| am aware that the attempted justl6ca
ton for these usurpations is necessity
always the tyrants plea for crime, op-
preston, and wrong-the sham excuse
which was set up for the wrongs inflicted
in Kansas, and for greater wrongs since
inflicted on Georgia and other States Of
the South. While not disposed to OBJ
trude my opinion upon others, desire
not to be misunderstood. / fully recog-
nize the necessity as means to sustain
the principles but let the means be sub
ordinate to the ends | am democrat,
but not secessionist who would admit
that State has right to withdraw from
the Union and throw Off its Federal OBJ
legations. am republican, but not an
exclusiouist who would exclude States
from their rightful representation in
Congress, deny them the right to frame
their fundamental laws, the right to reg
ulate their own domestic affairs, or deny
them their reserved and uEdoubted exclu-
sive right and authority to punish Of
fenses committed within their respective
jurisdictions. This doctrine of secession
and this doctrine Of exclusion are each
shams each incompatible with q
Federal Union, each inconsistent with and
in violation Of the Constitution, and each

ANXIETY BILL IN CAUCUS

ANXIETY BILL IN CAUCUS
The Republican senatorial caucus to-
day. with SO out of So Republican sena-
tors voting, decided by l6 to 20 that the
House amnesty bill should not be con-
sidered by the Senate at this session.
Although more than thirty-six were pres
ent, there were several who lodged the
issue, and thereby allowed the PROPOSE.
ton to go by default.
PRESIDENTIAL INFLUENCE.
1t is noticeable that the presidential
influence favored this result, for while
Senators Sherman, Upton and the two
Southern Senators and Hill, of Georgia
urged that the bill should be passed, ia
follow the Ku-klux bill as an olive branch
rendered to the South, Senators Morton
Chandler, Edmunds, and Conkling, the
special representatives of the views and
interests of the administration, violently
opposed any such legislation.
SOUTHERN CLAIMS COMMITTEE
Resume their session to day. Already
they have one hundred and twenty-five
cases on the docket, ranging in amounts
from $500 to SS4, 900, and it is believed
that the number Of cases will number
several thousand.

To-day, with full bench, heard arguments
on the following points: First, Is the
act Of Congress known as the legal tender
act constitutional as to contracts made
before its passages Second, Is it valid
as applicable to transactions since its
passage? Hon. Clarkson n Potter
maintained the negative Of the question.
Attorney General Akerman, in lieu of a
brief of his own, submitted one prepared
by his predecessor, Mr.. Hoar, and then
proceeded, in summary way to reply to
Mr.. Potter. Mr. Potter closed the argu-
ment, when the question was submitted
to the court.
