A Russians knowledge of Cavalry.

Col. Sukhotin, who wants the Russian
army to be turned into hordes Of cavalry
like those of Tamerlane and Genghis Khan,
has contributed to Russian military maya
zine an able paper on the American cavalry
during the war of secession. Therein we dis
GOV, r some of the motives which induced the
recent trans formation of tho Russian cavalry
into dragons. But as that war was waged
between masses of unframed horsemen, it is
highly improbable that its lessons should ap-
ply to the conditions of European conflict.
The Americans on both sides preferred the
revolver in the melee to the saber or lance;
but why! Because their troopers were not
good enough hoIsemen to use the cold steel
with effect. A Federal lancer regiment, 700
strong. being routed, brought only twenty
lances with them out Of the fray, and it is
patent fact that the saber, in the hands Of a
tyro, is more dangerous to his chargers ears
than to his antagonist. In addition, unframed
soldiers sadly i'll use and neglect their horses.
Experience taught the Federal government
that its cavalry, under an enterprising
leader, had to be remounted throughout
every four monthsl The cavalry belonging
to the Army of the Potomac, averaging 49,
900 strong, were supplied with 35,G7S re-
mounts within six months Rigorous meas
ures were taken to compel tho men to spare
their horses. A trooper galloping through
street of Washington, being called upon by
sentry to moderate his pace, was shot dead
on refusing to obey. Whole regiments were
turned into infantry for persistent neglect of
their horses. Sheridans assertion that
10000 horses should be able to prevent the
concentration of 100000 men was based on
the assumption that he could at the outset
overwhelm the cavalry Of the enemy with
the fire of the dragons or mounted infantry;
and upon a belief in it Russia seems to have
staled its existence as a leading military
power.-St. James Gazette.

The active competition for living that the
physician in New York has to encounter las
resulted i'll q curious method for stimulating
trade There are doctors in this city, grad
yates in duo form, and, no doubt, in many
cases men of ability, who remit all fees for
consultations, relying on the profits they OBJ
tain from tho medicines they prescribe for
emolument. Certain standard prescriptions
they have put up in quantities and these they
sell directly to the patients. Where a pre-
scription has to be compounded the patient is
sent to q certain drug store at which the doc
tor has an arrangement for his commissions
Between these two devices the practitioner
really captures reasonable fee, and no gets
it, moreover, in cash where he otherwise
might have to give credit, with strong show
of loss, for though patients will not dream of
demanding credit for medicines, they make
very small bones about leaving the doctors
bill unpaid once he has permitted them to
run it up
The practice is of course irregular and has
to be quietly INDUCED in. Any physician
who was detected in it would suffer profess
sional ostracism, if no worse. But the spread
of the custom has rendered some method of
advertising it necessary and the prescription
doctors now circulate their cards, with
notification on the back of the special advan-
tages they offer. These cards are delivered
in letter boxes at fiat houses and sent by
mail to directory addresses. Trumble
