4 National Militia.

Gen. Benet, Chief of Ordnance, in his annual
report, makes a novel recommendation with
respect to national militia. He recommends
the passage of such laws as will make an eff
fcient national militia Of some 100000 men
The proposition in substance is that the militia
of the several States, when they have arrived
at certain degree of efficiency, and have
complied with certain conditions, may, &C
cordiDg to the pleasure of the respective
States, be enrolled as national militia, in
which case they shall be maintaine at the OK
pense Of the General Government The degree
of efficiency is to be determined by the reports
of officers to be called Inspectors of Militia,
who shall be appointed partly from the regular
army and partly from civil life. Col. Benet,
the Chief of Ordnance, recommends
that one-half shall be selected from
among those who have served in the
Union army and one-half from those who
have served in the rebel army. This is the
first time that a proposition of this kind has
ever, proceeded from any bureau officer. To
otviate any objections that might arise on the
ground of State rights, it is proposed that any
State shall be at liberty to withdraw its militia
from the national enrolment In its own
pleasure, subject to certain regula-
tons. Among the conditions of ad-
mission to the national enrolment are that the
State shall consent that under certain crcum
stances, its militia shall be subject to the order
of the General Government Col. Benet rec
ommends an appropriation Of 81, 00O, 900 to put
into effect any law That may be enacted upon
this subject

and "sold out" Secretary Schurz there
upon PUSHES into print and takes Sheridan
to task for his dispatch, and defends the order
ing of Gen Merritts command back to the
White River Agency, on the ground that it was
the best thing that could he done under the
circumstances. Gen. Sheridan retorts by say
ing that he wishes no controversy with the
Interior Department, but that he still stands

Study the Face.

A story is told of great French
satirist, which finely illustrates his
knowledge of human nature. He was
travelling in Germany, in entire igno-
rance of its language and currency.
Having obtained some small change for
some of his French coins, he used to
pay drivers in the following manner
Taking handful of the numismatical
specimens from his pocket he counted
them one by one into the creditors
hands, keeping his eye fixed all the
time on the receivers face. AS soon as
he perceived the least twinkle of a smile
he took back the last coin deposited in
the hand, and returned it, with the re-
mainder, tc his pocket. He afterward
found that in pursuing this method he
had not overpaid for anything.
