How to Drink Wine.

New York Grocer: In order to cultivate a
correct taste for wines, one should learn
how to drink them. To know how to enter
tain friends when wine is INDUCED in, be-
longs only to the host gifted with knowl-
edge of his wines, and tact and discrimina-
ton in selecting and serving. There are
both art and science in drinking. The fol-
lowing general rules may be laid down,
which will serve as guide to the beginner:
With fish. white wines.
With meat, rich red wines or cham
payne.
At the end of repsst, the oldest red wine
After dessert. white, swec. wines or brandy
and coffee.
Regarding the selection of red wines, the
rule Is to begin With the newest and least
celebrated. A few epoopfuls of soup warns
mp the stomach, and dmouthfui OF GOOD
old sherry wakens the Rustatory organs 10
all the pleasures Of the table. With thu
oysters followed by the Ash) come tho dry
Catswba. Reisling dry Iona or dry Isabella.
When the hsh and oysters are removed,
these wines 60 with them. when thu
meats are brought ON. 6ne rich clareta
should bear them company. With richie,
meats, such a. roast besf, venison or othsl
Wild meats. Q rich Burgundy sho1ld b

FRENCH MILITARY DISCIPLINE

When soldier by his delinquencles has
earned a certain number of days impris-
onment, the Council of Discipline" of his
regiment il convoked to decide upon his be-
ing sent to the disciplinary companies.
Soldiers thus sent have neither killed nor
robbed, but, regardless of repeated punish
ment, have continued to stay out of nights
by scaling the walls; have been guilty of
repeated unauthorized absences, too brief
to justify the charge of desertion; or per-
sisted in being dirty, lazy or perverse.
But is not out of all proportion to their
guilt the punishment thus inflicted? It will
be remembered that few years ago num-
Der of them died from exposure to the sun,
shut up in that horrible instrument Of tor
ture called the crap4udine, the use of which
since. has been forbidden by the govern
ment.
A recent work. and from which Mr. Mil
lerand intends to quote az basis of his
Interpolation of the ministry, SHOWS that. in
the progress of reform toward the humanity
(douceur) much remains to be done. He
himself had been of the number disciplined.
Here ia his description of regiment ON
its return: "A lamentable procession of
exhausted, lame men, their complexion Of a
hue either leaden or sallow; their eyes spir-
itless; their limbs devoid of all elasticity;
scarcely dozen carry their knapsacks; at
least fifty have a cadaverous appearance.
their eyes either half closed or swollen by
fever, wearing a disaoreesble brilliancy;
they must be taken under the arm-pits to
be assisted in dismounting. and scarcely
reach the ground when. careless of the kick
of the mule, deaf to the orders of their
officers, they succumb in the middle Of the
road"
Ths captain approaches them and sneer-
inaly observes, 'sThsre, Mr.. Dusaule, are
abs bodied men. are they not? All! what
arc these sticks zee there? Throw me one,
and quickly! Soldiers promenading with .
