Tie PruSSian LnSSi i'm Officers.

A list of the officers of the Prussian
army who fell during the late war, has
lately been published at Berlin, under
the title GedenktafeI der PreuSsischen
ATn1ce. Though all the details of the
laborlous compilation may not always
be entirely correct, it affords q great
deal OF very important and trustworthy
information. The statistical review
appended is specially worthy of atten-
ton. From it we learn that 1.210 off
GERS died on the battlefield or of their
wounds, while 157 died of disease in
the course of the war. OF the 1,2l0
officers who formed the first class, |. O59
belonged to the infantry and only rs to
the cavalry. The proportion of the
losses in these two branches of the
service is. therefore, a. l, whereas the
proportion of numbers is Al. Con-
sequently, the danger to which an off
Ger of infantry IS exposed is from three
TO four times as great as that of an Off
Ger of cavary. The only cavalry regi-
ment whose losses approach
those of most infantry regi-
ments was the First Guard
Dragons, which was engaged in the
battle OF Vionville, and consequently
lost 8 officers. The Second Guard
Dragons, which was engaged on the
same occasion, only lost 3 officers.
With the exception of these the entire
loss of the cavalry of the Guard only
amounted to officers. The cuirassiers
were especially fortunate. The 10
Prussian regiments only lost 9 officers
killed, or dying in consequence of their
wounds. Three of these belonged to
the Magdeburg Cuirassiers, (No. ~
who distinguished themselves so bril-
hantIy IN the battle of Vionville The
artillery lost 81 officers by wounds, and
Is by disease, and the engineers by
wounds and 10 by disease. Thus, IN
the latter corps so per cent. of the en-
tire loss was caused by disease, while
if we take the entire loss of the officers
in the Prussian Army, we find that
only II 10 per cent. Of it arose from
sickness. The loss of general officers
was comparatively small; 9 Generals
and 1 Colonel, acting as commander of
q brigade, fell on the battlefield or
died of their wounds.

Our American Florence Nightingale.

A correspondent, writing from Stras-
bourg, pays fattering tribute to our
noble countrywoman, Clara Barton.
who, besides nursing the wounded in
hospitals as long as the Franco German
war lasted. formed and executed plan
for marking the graves of the soldiers
who died IN the prisons Of the South.
She is now in Strasbourg, where she has
founded, with her own resources. a
large and always increasing establish
ment of work for women, which counts
more than go mothers of large fami-
hes-widOws, wives of prisoners, or of
wounded soldiers
Twelve hundred persons-little child
rem and aged parents-have been fed
and warmed, and clothed all winter by
the earnings of these women, and by
this means held through the terrible
crisis above the degradation of beggarv
and vagrancy. One would have thought
that, with the end Of the war, and the
return of peace and spring, stranger
and a foreigner would have grown
weary of SO heavy burden and laid it
down; but the charity of this unseIfsh
American phiianthropist apparently
knows no fatigue and admits no cessa-
ton. She has the respect and love of
the entire civilized world.

The Flag of the FolaTis.

The Polaris takes with her a flag
which has an eventful history. 1t is a
common man-of-war's boat ensign, and
was in Wilkes expedition in 1853.
When the Peacock was shipwrecked at
the mouth of the Columbia river, this
flag was saved, and in 1850, when the
first Grinnell expedition was fitted out,
the colors were presented to Mr. Henry
Grinnell De Haven, who had COM
mand of the expedition took the colors
further north than any other American
flag had ever before been exhibited
In 1854, when Dr. Kane went out, Mr.
Grinnell loaned the flag to him, and it
was taken still further north. After
abandoning his vessel at Smiths Sound,
DR.. Kane made perilous voyage in an
open voyage toward the North Pole.
The colors served for his pillow when
he slept In the boat. In 1857 the flag
was loaned to Dr. Hayes. At the COM
pletion of each expedition it was return
ed to Mr.. Grinnell.

4 Paris Horror.
Paris Correspondence London Globe

I heard, yesterday, this incident re-
lated, and am quite satisfied that 1t Is
true. A few days after the overthrow
of the Commune, member of the
National Assembly had the curiosity to
go to see some of the female captives of
Paris confined at Versailles. Shortly
after entering yard in which two or
three hundred of them were assembled,
one of them, in dirty garments, caught
hlm by the arm and cried, "You
shall not leave me, NJ" He tried to
shake her off, but she chung tighter,
and said, EtDo not leave me, for Gods
sake Look at me =" He looked at
her, and exclaimed in establishment,
. Gracious heavens Madame. You
here" He recognized in her friend,
a lady of wealth in Paris. She burst
into tears and told her tale. On Thurs
day, the 10Th of May, fighting having
ceased IN her quarter, she went out
and called at the shop of dyer, to in
qulre about some things she had sent
TO be dyed. On leaving she found her
self among several women, who were
flying before a band of soldiers CRYING !:
Stop them, they are petroteuses. !"
The women were surrounded, ana she
with them, and she, in spite Of her
earnest circumstances, was with them
and many others sent to Versailles
They were made to go on foot, and what
she suffered from fatigue and thirst,
and agony OF mind. no one, she says. can
imagine. At Versailles all her efforts
to communicate with her friends and
family were vain, for no one would listen.
The NJ. P, of course FASTENED to get
But for him she might have
been sent with her fellow-prisoner to a
peuitentiary colony, or, like some of
chem, shot. Her family in Paris were
surprised at her absence, but never
supposed that she could be among the
of Versailles, and so made
no inquiries there. The lady is con-
WINGED that many of her fellow-prison-
ers were as innocent as she, but SAYS
they were treated with as much cruelty
as those whose guilt was undoubted

She was supplied with the private
books and work of the order, keys of

How an Experiment Ended.

A story comes from Delaware of an
eccentric philosopher who Las paid the
penalty of his criminal attempt to en-
tighten mankind. To some extent he
did enlighten that abstraction, but not
as he intended to do. He had some
theory or other in regard to the use of
parachutes, which he absurdly con
nected with pyrotechnics, and so, on
the Fourth of July, shortly after dusk,
he clandestinely erected In his yard a
huge sky rocket, to the head of which
was attached his parachute IN such d
way that while the rocket was seeking
the moon it would remain closed, but
when its upward motion ceased,
it would theoretically open like
an umbrella, and thus watt him safely
to the ground. He attached himself
to the lower end of the stick with the
fuse turned away from him in such a
way that the fire from the rocket would
not injure him. Then he blazed away
and went whining through the air,
dangling and bobbing as he sped, with
fire fastening itself upon him-some-
what "like the pale martyr i'll his
shirt of fire" II his parachute
ever opened he did not know it, for
presently those who beheld the won
drous engine saw it turn sharply in
mid-air, and it fell. The poor fool was
found burnt and mangled, not far from
his own philosophy-shop.

Lead Ore

One of the richest veins of lead ore
In the United States has been discover
ed on the Ohio river, in the property
of the Rose Glare Mining Company,
Rose Glare, Hardin county, Illinois.
The vein is fourteen feet wide, and
runs through their property to the
extent of a mile. Shafts have been
sunk to the depth of two hundred feet,
and the mineral increases in richness,
with large percentage of silver. Elk
perienced miners from Wales and Eng
land pronounce it true vein, with all
the indications of deep deposit of
galena. Immediate steps vii! be taken
for an assay, while those familiar with
lead ore say it will yield eighty per
cent. The deposit is accompanied with
vein of fiuor spar, of itself valuable
as fux in manufacturing glass and
iron, and in melting silver and gold.

The TUiierieS 10 be Repaired.

There is talk of plan for partially
repairing the Tuileries. Experienced
architects have examined that unlucky
palace, and are of opinion that the
centre portion, intellectually the finest
part of the pile, is not so much dam
aged as to preclude its restoration.
The pavilions at each extremity of the
building would also be retained, and
the garden would be extended into the
vacant spaces that would remain be-
tween them and the central edifice One
can imagine that the effect of this
might be very pleasing, while the coup
I'9H from the great court of the Louvre
through the openings up the Champs
Elysees to the Arc de Triomphe, would
be unquestionably fine. Thus trans
formed into three distinct mansions
the Tuileries might not again afford a
suitable residence to sumptuous En-
perors or to Kings of long descent but
If France is to remain a republic, who
knows whether its future president
might not be content to take up his
abode in that Central Pavilion d'HOro-
loge, of which the clock has struck the
hour of 50 many remarkable events?

The Scientific Value IF Cheese Factories.

Nature, London jounal, says the
American system of cheese factories was
established nearly twenty years ago,
and in its present condition of maturity
IL retains tue essential features which
we're characteristic Of it's infancy. The
test of twenty years experience IN
country where apparent improvements
are eagerly submitted to a fair trial, Is
amply sufficient to prove the success
OF the system. Rec ntly the question
of It's adaptation TO English dairy dis
tricts has acquired considerable promi-
nence in agricultural circles, and is
now passing from the stage of discus
sion to that of experiment. The two
great merits which are claimed for it
are economy in the labor of production
and superiority of quality in the pro-
duce
1t is evident that if dozen farmers
convey their milk to one building Ga
| factorv) to be made into cheese or but
! tel, fewer hands are required to per-
form the work than if the process were
carried on at dozen different places,
by as many sets of people. The fac
tory can be furnished with a better
Iabor-saving machinery than the farm.
er dairy, and the former establishment
requires no more supervision than the
latter. The process of cheese-making,
also, occupies practically the same
length of time, whether the quantity
of milk under treatment be large OF
small, so that two or three persons
whose energies are concentrated at one
! place viii produce as great IN econo
mic result as dozen or more who are
necessarily employed at as many differ
ent points, each one going through the
same routine independently of eacl
| other.
The superiority in the quality of the
manufactured article may be more diff
cult of explanation, for the best farm
dairies produce as good cheese as any
| factory. The reason why the establish
ment of factories has improved the av
erage make of cheese is because fewer
| tirst-rate cheese makers are required
under the factory system. But wher

factory, twenty years ago, the great bulk
Of American cheese was extremely poor

In Anecd0te of Emerson.

There is story told of Mr.. Ralph
Waldo Emerson, that once upon time
he determined to live after the fashion
of the world; and stopping, while of
this mind, at a country tavern in vii
lage where he was to lecture, instead
of retiring to mediate in his cold and
cherries room, he manfully sat in the
bar-room, like the rest of mankind He
endured the tobacco smoke as well as
he could, and watched-no doubt with
a curiosity as lively as M. Du Chaillu' s
on lis his first visit to cannibal feast
among the Fans-the action of the men
VINO ''sat around He saw one after
another walk up to the bar and demand
and swallow a glass of whisky: and true
to his determination to be for once like
other men, the great philosopher-so
the tale goes On--at last rose, and, no
doubt, with a certain degree of diff
dence, but no DOUBT also with suffi-
cheney Of courage III his port and coun-
tenance, advanced to the bar, and in a
voice modulated as nearly as he could
after those he had just heard, demand
ed whisky kim The bar-keeper,
a man of sound principles as well as
sound discretion, looked into the phi
Iosopher's face ior d moment, and then
said, You do not want whisky YOU
want ginger-pop;" and accordingly ad
mlnlstered that mild and harmless
stimulant.

Cradle Song.
BY DAVID d. HUDSON.

BY DAVID u. hODSoN'
Come to baby, gentle sleep,
Come to baby now,
Let your drowsy pinions sweep
Round his rosy brow.
Softly close his tiny eyes,
For his little bed;
Charm his slumbers where he lies,
Till the sky is red.
Make his dreamy visions blest
Show him fairy bowers:
Rock him in the arms Of rest,
Like the bees on flowers
Jingle bells about his feet;
Blow your elfsh horn;
With the breath of roses sweet,
Fan his face till morn.
Kindle stars to light his dreams,
Past the waning moon;
Bear him over winding streams,
On the clouds of June;
Sail him safely while he glides
Der this azure sea
When bis ship at anchor rides,
Bring him back to me.
