Moltke the Silent--der Schweiger-as
be is called, Is generally considered the
greatest, and is certainly the most sue.
oessful, Of living soldiers. His achieve
ments at Koniggratz, Sedan and Paris
have never been surpassed and compel
the admiration OF all competent military
critics. Silent. quiet, cold, the very in
carnation OF concentrated thought, just
as you see him walking in the streets or
moving in u drawing.room, when every
body sands respectfully aside to let him
pass--so be stood on the battlefield, his
cold, clear eye passing slowly from one
point to the other, and his cold, clear
mind weighing the chances OF victory
and defeat with the intensity and seren-
ity OF mathematician pondering over
the solution of some grave problem.
No one, it is said, has ever seen Count
Moltke excited, not even at Sedan, where
the greatest victory of modern times de-
ciled the fortunes of the two most pow
erful empires of the Continent. His
calnness seems mys terious, and there Is
something strangely sad about that ST.
lent, lonely old man. His wife died some
years ago; he Dever had child; his near
est relations, with the exception OF a
nephew and niece, seem to be kept at a
distance by him. Who are his compan-
ions and friendsg To whom does he ever
talk in friendly, familiar " Nobody
has ever been able to tell me, though
have often inquired.
An old man of eighty -four, he still ap-
pears without fail wherever duty calls
him. He is to be seen ut almost all the
Emperor's receptions, the most striking
parsonage near the throne But how
does the Old Field Marshal pass his
time when free from duty-when tired
of work? Nobody pretends to know.
Either nobody penetrates into his inti-
macy, or else those who approach him
intimately do not speak about it.
When the weather is fine You may
see very tall, thin man, with light yell
lowish hair and sallow, beardless,
wrinkled face, out OF which shine pair
of stony gray eyes, wrapped in long,
dark military coat, cap on his small
head, faultlessly dressed in generals
uniform-a gentleman born in every
inch of his aristocratic, slender figure,
his body still erect, but his head, as in
deep thought, slightly bent forward
sach man, | say, you may see coming
out of the great red building which
stands on the Koenigs Blatz, at the cor
ner of Moltke ana Bismarck streets. and
which bears the name OF General
Stab" The solitary old man, unat-
tended by servant, walks slowly,
noiselessly. Every one who meets hun
looks at him attentively. If the passer-
by is a soldier he stands on one side and
salutes. The old gentleman returns the
salute slowly and deliberately, but APP
parently without seeing to whom.

ours to me that in such guise Dante
