GEN. SIIERMAN's VIEWS ON ARMS AND
ARMIES. Sherman, in recent social
chat, gave his views on the arms and ar
mics of the present day. He regards the
Remington American rife the best made,
the chassepot as superior tothe needle-gun,
but explains that this discrepancy was
overcome BY the German system of edu-
eating the young men to the uses of arms,
which make it easy TO create an army of
drilled soldiers in a short time by draft or
the reserve system, whereby old soldiers
leave the pursuits of peace TO enter an ar
my, TO find their old comrades, and TO re-
enter their old regiments and companies.
He believes Mr.. Krupp has come nearer
perfection in his l1-inch steel gun than has
been reached in the manufacture of other
heavy ordnance. He illustrated its sue
cess in various tests that have been made.
He spoke of the cost as the only objection
against it; while our l1-inch gun costs
about Sc, 800, the Krupp guns cost $50 600
each. Three hundred of the latter pattern
are now being used by the Germans in
front of Paris.

THE Democratic press has expressed
great horror whenever Republican papers
speak in any but highest respect of Gen.
Lee, now that he is dead. We can hardly
pick up Southern paper now without
finding in it the vilest abuse of Secretary
Stanton. They never think of his being
dead, or of the Inconsistency of such a
policy.
The trouble with Stanton was, he did
not consult the Constitution every day to
keep himself thoroughly advised of their
constitutional rights while levying war.
He was too vigorous and successful a War
Minister. This is about the best reason
they have for their hatred.
But no matter about their abuse: his
memory will live and be respected and
honored long after they cease reviling
him.

How BRET HARTE LooKs.-Mr. III. l..
Reade thus describes Bret Harte: II spent
a portion of two days with him a short
time since in San Francisco. He is q lit
tie below the medium stature, well-pro-
portioned, has forehead more high than
broad, thin brown hair, a fair complexion
originally, but his face is now badly pitted
with smallpox; eyes remarkably soft and
brilliant, and an Undesirable expression
of countenance that indicates u spirit in
complete sympathy with all that is beauti-
tiful and all that is good. His voice is Pc
culiarly sweet and musical, his powers of
endurance not over large; he is firm in his
opinions, but in the expression of them
modest; shuns rather than seeks society
never courts but avoids notoriety; is de-
lightful companion; does far more work
than he ought; understands what he can
do, and never attempts what he cannot
and, in general appearance, more nearly
resembles that poet and scholar and gen
tlsman, Donald G. Mitchell, than any per-
son with whom am acquainted on this
side of the continent.

The spectacle which France presents
to-day has perhaps never been seen before
in the experience Of man. So completely
subjugatedis she that there is no authority
within her borders competent to negotiate
for peace. If she had had real leaders
three months ago they would have sur
rendered their hopeless cause and saved
her people intense distress and great loss
of life. To-day when she tenders her
broken sword to the German Emperor he
is placed in the dilemma of accepting terms
from leaders whose authority may be here
after questioned, or of restoring to his
throne an Emperor who began the strug-
gle but lost his crown at an early period in
the.confiict. AS Bismarck pointedly eX-
pressed it, when conditional terms of sur
render were asked: +" If the Republic re-
jects the terms and the Empire accepts
them, you must choose between acceptance
and restoration of the Empire"
What strange event it would be if, af-
ter conquering both the Empire and the
Republic, it would yet devolve upon Ger
many to restore Napoleon to his throne,
and maintain him there, in order to secure
the terms her complete triumph enables
her to demand. That such a contingency
may arise is not even yet rendered inn
probable.
The most satisfactory, though not by
any means readable, advices we have, in
dictate the terms of surrender to be sub
stantially these: That the forts should be
garrisoned by German regulars, the Gardes
Mobile to be sent to Germany, and the Ma
tional Guard to remain armed and take
care Of the city; that Alsace and Lorraine
be yielded to Germany, and the province
of Champagne held as pledge for the pay
ment of the war expenses, the French to
be permitted then to reconstruct their gov
eminent in their own way.
Though the organized armies in Paris
have surrendered, the Germans may yet
find trouble in quoting the disturbing ele-
ments within its limits. Our dispatches
which we give this morning give some in
dication of the temper and numbers of
these classes.
LuO RClulteIlS AAShy ilhu SoL-c tAOuDiS III
reconciling these elements to the terms
agreed upon by either Favre and Trochu,
or Napoleon. Though the actual HOSTILE
ties between the German and French ar
mics may cease by the surrender, there is
yet, we fear, much trouble in store for the
French people. There are differences to
be settled between the friends of the EN-
pire and between the Empire and the Re
public. The surrender of Napoleon, and
the creation of the Republic, will leave all
these questions open to be determined by
the French people the moment they are
left to set in order their disturbed house
hold. No matter what may be the situa-
ton after the final treaty is made, these
questions viii oil be opened by the French
people the very first opportunity pre-
scented.
