OCT. 18. ‘ s _ Education and the War. — : At the close of the war between Austria and.Prussia, Jules Simon, one of the members of the present-French gan that conquered at Sadowa, but the ‘Prussian universities.” The success of Prussian arms has been due to the greater degree of intelligence possessed by the citizens composing its army. At the outset of the struggle the then French Emperor: declared that he did not go forth to fight an army, bat an armed nation, This declaration has proved disastrously true for France. It ‘was because every Prussian was a. soldier, and because the average Prussian possesses a greater amount. of culture than the average citizen -of any other nation, that the victory thus far has been with Prussia. The Pruossian army is the Prussian nation, and it represents the intelligence of the people. ‘The French army was to a great extent composed of illiterate persons, together with not a few of the rudest barbarians. Prussia requires that ev. ery man capable of bearing arms shall receive a inilitary education and enter the army for a certain number of years. With very few exceptions, there are no exemptions allowed. Each. Prussian subject is enrolled a soldier as soon as he has completed: his twentieth year, and before arriving at his twentieth year he is compelled by law to have acquired at least the general principles of a substantial education, His term of service is seven years; three years in the regular army, and the remaining four in the reserve; and even then he is not entirely exempt from military Auty,but is enrolled in the ‘Landsturi’ until the age of fifty. The system in France is the opposite of this. Although Napoleon endeavored to imitate the Prussian system, his effort suftered shipwreck in the aristocratic apathy of the higher classes. The French have only enlisted men in their army. But the attempt, if possible, could not have.resulted in immediate success, In Prussia it is the fruit of two hundred years attentive study and practice, and commenced when the nation, having been destroyed at Jena, set about the discovery of a plan for national regeneration. During two centuries the Prussian youth have been instructed t sink their individuality in the unity of the nation; to be plodding and obedient. The result is not perhaps the man or the society that is the most agreeable, but the consequence, nevertheless, has been the creation of an intelligent armed nation. The Prussian army, or nation, is a unit, in which each citizen soldier is an infinitesimal perfect part. It is a sad thing to know that so much of the time of the flower of the Prussian youth must be devoted to the barbarous art of war, saya the Chicago Courier, and other civilized countries will do well to consider whether it is not more to the national advantage to. cultivate more assiduously the arts of peace, The intellectual superiority has been specially notable during. the campaign prior to Sedan. While French Generals have been obliged to inquire their way of peasants at crossroads, and have been repeatedly surprised in their own county, Prussian subaltern officers have been found to be supplied with more perfect and detailed maps of French territory than arein possession of the French headquarter staff; and Prussian general of. ficers have been able to conduct battles in the enemy’s coantry, relying solel upon cad pabane=4 — knowlge of the topo, y of the country. The lesson is thas the educated a is the best man for every capacity in iin life. It bas been proved that the -Prussian soldier, who perhaps may. discuss some of the platitades of meta» ge in the barracks, knows how to ill, or get killed, better than an ignos rant peasant. Trained intelligence is ‘better than trained rance. And it is.to be hoped that 8 nce intelligence in an army is so clearly superior. tw ignorance, that the time may not be far distant when intellect will be the mas~ ter of instead of the servant of matter, The Literary Society. improved’ by opening the windows in the south side, Judge Searls being absent, J.

Mrs.-Nellie Chapman next read a. poetical selection with excellent taste, after which a solo was sung by Mrs, M.S. Deal, accompanied by Professor Muller on the piano. The essay of theevening by Miss Licuella Gephart, was, “Chauéer, the father of English poetry.” This was an exquisite piece of composition, abounding in eloquent passages and beautiful figures, Next followed’ the discussion upon the following question: Resolved, that the President was justified in pardoning the Fenian raiders. The affirmative was advocated by E. M. Preston, J. C, Palmerand J.B. Johnson; the negative by M. 8S, Deal, John Clark and W. W, Cross, and the decision given in favor of the negative.

ENCOURAGING TO SILK GRowERs.— The operations of the company organized in San Francisco for the purpose of commencing the manufacture ot Silk, says the Stockton Independent, are being carried on in a way to denote that the company has confidence that A building 50x125 feet and two stories in hight has been erected and the necessary machinery for the manufacture of silk ordered. The company has ordered a quantity of raw silk from China, and intend to secure regular supples from that source. until they from the silk growers of Califormia. I: is to be hoped that this company may be successful in their enterprise, for the reason that a manufactory of that kiud ia this State can but be an incentive to thove parties engaged in raising silk, to give the enterprise a thorough trial. In the opinion of those persons who have already had considerable experience in the business it gan be made a very profitable industry in our State, and will furnish a light and pleasant employment to hundreds ef women and children tor whom it is well adapted. The manufacturing company will purchase all the cocoons produced aud do all in their. power to encourage the interest. <ctlshneigilihlahem npn cms Forty thousand thalers has been paid in Prussia as a premium for the invention of a new sort of sausage. It seems that the inventor. Gruneber, just av Von Moltke commenced hie feat of throwing 800,000 soldiers on the frontier in fourteen days, submitted for the inspection of the high military authori. ties, a strange-looking, thick and peculiarly hard sausage, measuring little more in length than diameter. On being, not without force, cut through, it was found to be in fact an extremely solidified portable pea soup, containing @ plentiful admixture of flesh cut in cubes like dice; and an explanation was given to the effect that this pea soup sausage, or “Erbeenwarst,” had been, by artful secret, so prepared as to be preservable for years in any climate. A roune school girl, in writing to her mother, says: “I get along nicely with all my teachers except Miss ——., but I don’t blame lier, because she-accidentally shot the young man shé was to, and it naturally makes her feel kind of cross, especially on a cloudy day.” ; saysshe cares more for her eccentric busband’s income than she does for his and standing armies be abolished.

Miss Hansel has, however, disbanded her corps, on account. of the General’s delay, and the rapid and victorious progress of the war which rendered their services unnecessary. A WRITER in the Boston Advertiser, says of the editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal: The successor . of George D. Prentice is a hardly less extraordinary man, though in a different way. Mr. Watterson is quite as blind RS Prenesh, and does all his work, an incredible amount, by the aid of an amanuensis, writing leaders, literary reviews, musical and social criticisms, paragraphs, and other matter that enters into newspaper work at the rate ot three or four.columtis aday. Like Mr. Halstead, he is his own managing editor-and-sees his own paper to press, He is, perhaps, the best amateur piatist in the country, playing the music of Schumann and Chopin exquisitely, but he got his musical education, like the rest, by ear, havinz the music read to him, committing it to memory, and then going to the piano and playing it off. He is about 30 years old, Surt For Liset.—John Denny has commenced suitin the Sixth District Court against the Pater Hepiehing Company, proprietors ofthe Reporter, for damages in the sum of $20,000, in consequence of the publication in that paper on the 10th of October of an item’ concerning the plaintiff, which, the complaint says, was intended “to have people believe that the plaintiff was a murderer,:a thief, and an-eseaped and pardoned convict.”—Sac.
