Tue proposition to disbsnd the entire
army, said to have been seriously entertained
In the cabinet, was at least fine advertise
ment Of the rapidly approaching moment
when such step will be proper. AT the
present time, with Indians still on our hands
it would be scarcely advisable. As long as
we have any fighting or national police work
the regular army is probably cheaper than
an irregular one. But the present century
may see all excuse for its maintenance pass
away Secretary Of War McCrary has de-
cided to discharge before July l the $500
men enlisted after Clusters defeat. The sur
render of Crazy Horse relieves the army of
much labOrious duty and renders this re-
duction highly feasible. Mr.. Evarts is cred
tied with an intent to maintain stricter dis
cipline on the Mexican frontier than was ever
observed during Mr.. Fish's time, and is not
disposed to stand any fooling in that quar-
ter. He will soon forward peremptory de-
mand on the de facto government of Mexi.

Graude, or our forces will not scruple to

Telescope Talent.

II is oil war now with US. Morning and
evening, the papers deluge us with news
from the beligcront East. The Asiatic
words rain upon us as the clouds of heaven
shed their surplus drops aud confusion of
proneuncing talents is begOtteD ia the com.
munity that makes the old story of Babel
come true to the letter. We all know war
30 well in this country that passion for it
may be said to have been developed in us.
No sooner is the Cars proclamation read
than up go the prices of grain and out come
the stunning bulletins. This time it is a
pleasanter excitement, because it is located
at safe distance. Yet it is after the same
old fashion it is a riot of impulses over this
and that party to the fight, with an ILL
concealed hope that all Europe will finally
be counted in. We would really prefer to
see things lively, to know that something Is
going on. And we are ready to ship off corn
wheat. guns, ammunition, shoes, saddles,
clothing, horses, anything and everything
that we have, if they will only keep it up
long enough and hot enough on the other
side. But II is not in the markets that the
excitement is most cordially welcomed. Nor
even in the pool rooms, where bets are al
ways receivable for record if not payable at
the close. 1t is among the newspapers that
this war is going to be fought out with Wig
or to the end. There is more Of the Cossack
now in the qlill editorial than can be found
in all Southern Russia. And vastly more
geography, too. Maps-they are sketched
the palm Of every open editorial hand. Riv'
ers and seas and mountains move about in
dizzy whirl, with armies waltzing to the mu.
sic Of the transformation.
But II is in the craftsmanship OF the affair
that We all excel. Bismarck and Andrassy
never could have suspected such waste oil
the raw genus for it. Beust did not dream
of the phenomenon, and Gortschakoff has
gone it blind from sheer Ignorance Of this su
perabundance OF transatlantic skill in coun.
sci. We on this side can rap the heads o.
European cabinets together with the non

Duty AND BELIEP.-It is necessary 10 the
discharge Of duty that Its conditions should
be plain, aud its relations Ineligible. There
must be q natural connection between means
and ends. Endeavors aud results must be
within easy reach Of one another. Perform
ance must bear n certain proportion to power.
An unnatural standard is the despair of Of.
fort. We are coming at length to perceive
the impossibility Of wreuchiug men aud wo-
men out OF their nature; we have hit at
last on the discovery that all progress, all
successful achievement in whatever direction,
heavenward or eArthward, is conditioned on
faithful study Of nature, on an implicit con-
formity with the methods of nature. Duty
is simply what is due, due on the spot; due
TO the person TO whom we are under obliga-
ton due in the recognized coin Of the realm |;
due to Caesar If Cesar confers the benefit
due to Caesars slave ii the gift comes from
him. Belief is confidence, that "plant Of
slow growth" which is easily chilled and
blighted, which never thrives unless all the
conditions are observed, and is never SO ut
terly disheartened as by false pretenses. Con-
hdence is the plant on which We all feed !
confidence is the rational constitution OF the
world; confidence IN the integrity aud ca
pacity Of the human faculties and they that
betray that confidence, thwart it or arrest It,
incur ~ heavy burden Of responsibility al
can be assumed by mortal man.-O. b,

CATTLE SHIPMENT BETWEEN NEW AND OLD
ENGLAND.-A correspondent Of the Sussex
brighton, Eug) News calls attention to the
fact that the shipment Of live animals from
the United States to England is no new thing
under the sun. Before the days of steam
as early as l632-the writer finds record
which shows that the ship "Waale" arrived
at Boston from LOaaon with 6S COWS Of 10
put on board. During that aud the three
years following the same writer shows that
the shipment Of cattle, horses and sheep TO
this port from England was quite business,
the total number being several hundreds.
The loss of stock during those long voyages
Of forty days or more was generally light,
but one or wo.instances are given where it
was very heavy. Now that the shipment
Of cattle from this port to the ports Of Eng
land has como to be regular business, and
is increasing rapidly New England may be
said to be reciprocating the early and scanty
favors Of Old England two and half Gen.
turtles ago in most liberal manner.

TnE newspapers arc 6lled with reports Of
the Eastern war, but matters seem to pro-
gresa rather slowly. The Russians have

Turkey has proclaimed a holy war, against

cessful. The report that Kars in ASH
Minor has been taken by the Russians proves
untrue, but the Turks are being hard pressed
at that point, and it is thought can not hold
out much longer.
