THE GERMAN VICTORIES.
TriBufl are few or no instances in the whole
biatory of mankind in whish a powerful
monarch arrogantly declaring oppressive war
fix3 has been badly whipped in an interval so
hhort as that which has intervened between
Napoleon's de fiance to Prussia and the close
of tha battles which terminated on Saturday
night. The celerity, if not the decisiveness,
of even the Prussian demonstration against
Atmtria at feadowa has been surpassed, and a
piteous wail of agony and humiliation goes
up from the camp that confidently expected
to resound with the rejoicings of vic
tory. There can be no mistake about
tho Hignificance of the recent demonstrations.
Tha accounts forwarded from Prussia, in
cluding old King William's jubilation
ovor the triumph of "Our Fritz,"
oca confirmed in all essential par
ticulars by the confessions reluctantly
extorted from the Emperor. France, proud
France, may well be thrown into a state of
panic aad semi-revolution when Napoleon
tolLf hor that one of his generals has lost a
battle, that another has been obliged to re
tiro, that his communications with his own
army have been interrupted, and when he
&oak& of retreats to a people who in war wish
to hoar only of advances. And when the
very citadel of the nation is placed
ia a fctata of siege, when the Ministers offi
cially volunteer assurances that Paris is still
hafo, and that a heroic effort can yet rescue
tha country which would fain be the arbiter
of tha Continent, and when the Empress, to
inspire drooping confidence, tells the nation
that it will see her "first in danger to defend
tha flag of France," disheartening memories
of tha days of Elba and of St. Helena must
ba vividly recalled in the mind of every
qaick-witted Frenchman. As matters are
progressing now, Napoleon's latest blunder
promises to be his last and most fatal one.
Hia hope to find Prussia unprepared, his
plans to secure effective alliances, and his
depondenee upon his patent implements of
doatruction, have all proved fallacious. Even
his fleet is well-nigh useless, and while they
are talking in Paris of recalling its sailors to
help d of end the fortifications of the capital,
wa do not doubt that he fervently wishes
that the troops who form his expeditionary
corpi were in his frontier fortresses, to help
rotriove his desperate fortunes or to
stceogthen his defensive lines, instead of
wasting their energies in wild schemes on
tha Prussian coast. Mistaken in all the cun
ning manoeuvring that paved the way for this
humiliation, Napoleon's presence in the
French comp has helped to precipitate his
difigrace. A sick old man, who never
did understand very thoroughly
tba act of war, but who is
t jo j salon of rivalry and too much puffed
up with conceit to permit any important
operation to be undertaken without his per
sonal consent, cannot fail to prove an awful
incubus in the French camp. We are told
that for several hours preceding the late
battles McMahon was closeted with tha Em
peror, and the subsequent overthrow appears
to hava been the fruit of their joint counsels.
And if the real heroes of the French army are
to ba compelled in future to dance attendance
ia thii marplot's chamber at criti
cal junctures, when every second
in pregnant with great events, the French have
no raason to expect better success in future.
In tha eyes of the nation, Napoleon, unless
ha Rpeedily retrieves his fortunes, will figure
not only ' as a tyrannical blunderer on the
throne, but as a dead weight on the battle
field, and if this double odium does not crush
him, tha past history of France affords no
pronaga of its future. Among the chances
&'.iU loft him is the possibility of defeating an
a Jvance corps of the Prussians if they are
too venturesome, and the conversion of the
ptavailing indignation in his dominion into an
overpowering sentiment of antagonism against
the invaders. But both these chances, and espe
cially the latter, are desperate. Even the
first Napoleon did not venture to send back
to Par in any war bulletins except those which,
truthfully or faltely, reported splendid Victo
ria, and when his great disaster in Russia
CJima at last, he was careful to hurry back to
tha capital before a rumor of his enormous
looses had preceded him. Aad the nephew
of his uncle ventures upon a fearful experi
ment when he trusts excited Paris to peace
fully submit, in his absence, to the double
load of national disgrace and of the continued
d JOiiaatioa of a master she hates and despises.
If IE PENSION Ii UREAL.
A.OOiirCNu to the latest reports about the"
"Honorable" Roderick R. Butler, member of
Congress from Tennessee, he has been for
several years past engaged in pension and
bounty speculations, which are likely to get
Lira into complication of legal difficulties
from whioU he will hardly escape without
auiiering soma of the penalties prescribed for
tWw wUo prefer to live by swindling rather
than to earn their bread and butter by honest
labor. We referred a short time ago to the
charge made against this model Congressman
of forging a check for a pension, but it now
appears that this was but one out of a
number of cases of fraud in which
he is implicated. It is now
alleged that he procured back pay and allow
ances to the amount of $400, but that he
only gave $40 to the widow in whose behalf
it was obtained; that he made a regular busi
ness of having bills passed by Congress, the
recipient of the benefit of which paying
him one-half; and that on one occasion he
obtained a pension for a man who had served
in the Confederate army, and who had never
shouldered a musket in his life for the
National Government. We may well inquire
whether there is not something radically de
fective in the present organization of the
Pension Bureau when such frauds as these
are allowed to be perpetrated. If this man
Butler has been making a regular business
of swindling not only the pensioners
but the Government also ever since
18G7, why may not hundreds of others be en
gaged in like transactions? All the informa
tion we are. able to obtain about the inside
management of the pension Bureau indicates
not only that ample facilities for fraud are
afforded, but that if a Pension agent is able
to keep on good terms with tho authorities
at headquarters, he will be permitted to run
his office pretty much as he pleases. If this
is not the case, why has not Colonel Ferbes,
of this city, not been removed by the chief of
the bureau? Without pretending to implicate
Colonel Forbes in the frauds for which one
of his clerks was tried and sentenced a few
weeks ago, sufficient has been proved against
him to show that he is not
a fit man for the place he holds.
He has acknowledged that money has
been advanced by him to pensioners at usu
rious rates of interest, and this, as an open
and barefaced violation of the law, ought to
have secured his prompt removal indepen
dently of any of the other charges of irregu
larity that were brought against him. That
Colonel Forbes was not removed and that
Roderick R. Butler was permitted during a
series of years to use it as a medium for his
swindling transactions prove conclusively
that there is something very rotten in the
Pension Bureau, and that a complete and
radical reform is imperatively needed. Con
gress, at its last session, under a strong pres
sure of public opinion, passed a law for
the payment of pensions more frequently
than heretofore and prohibiting the de
duction of agents' foes. Tha ring
of pension agents, however, was
powerful enough to prevent such a law being
passed as was really needed, and the whole
cumbrous, expensive, inconvenient, and ineffi
cient agency system was continued simply
because it provided an immense number of
lucrative offices which could bo bestowed
as rewards for political services. For this
reason, and for this reason alone, wore the
pension agencies maintained, and, as the cose
of Colonel Forbes sufficiently proves, a clear
political record at Washington is all that a
pension agent needs to enable him to drive
a thriving trade in the way of discounting
claims in spite of law, justice, and public
opinion. There is such a thing as killing the
goose that lays the golden egg; and power
ful as the pension agents' ring has shown
itself to be, it cannot stand many such
damaging revelations as have been made in
the cases of Colonel Forbes and Congress
man Butler; and if the attention of the public
is once fairly concentrated upon tho corrup
tions of the Pension Bureau, Congress will
be compelled to make a change that will anni
hilate the ring.
There is a wail of dospair in the despatch
of the Emperor acknowledging the defeat of
his army "We lose neither our coolness or
our confidence, but the trial is hard." Tho
man is playing his last desperate game with
fortune, and defeat means destruction. With
unwearied patience he triumphed over obsta
cles that seemed almost insurmountable, and
finally succeeded in re-establishing the Em
pire, and for the twenty years past he has
scrupled at nothing to consolidate the power
of his family, to insure the succession of
his eon and the perpetuation of his dynasty.
Prematurely old, he sees the boy upon whom
his hopes are placed with no hold whatever
upon the affections of the French
people, and with no hopes for tha future but
such as are based upon the prestige of power
and victory. When he ought have been most
secure he has felt the ground slipping from
under his feet, and as a last resort to main
tain himself he has rushed into a wicked
and uncalled-for war, not so much for the
purpose of conquest as that the pride of the
French people might be flattered by the buc
oess of the armies of the Empire in bloody
combat with the most powerful rival of
France. A victory at the commencement of
the campaign was a necessity, and a defeat
means not only a strategic advantage for the
enemy, but trouble and dissatisfaction in
Paris, where the affair of the Empire are in
the hands of men who will desert Napoleon
III in an emergency just as they have de
serted other masters when it was to their
interest to do so. Well may the Emperor
exclaim "This is hard to bear !"
The farce begins to turn into a tragedy.
The picture of "Louis" picking up a bullet in
sight of a weeping army was pretty, even if
slightly funny and not strictly veracious, and
the attempt of the Emperor to make his son
appear a hero had something not altogether
ignoble about it, even if it did make the
world laugh. No sooner, however, does the
serious business of the war commence, and
the eagles of the empire begin to droop their
wings in defeat, than a special train is des
patched in frantic haste to take "Louis" back
to Paris and the bosom of his terrified
mamma. If there ever was a time when it
was neceessary for the boy to show himself a
fit successor to the great Napoleon, it is the
present. With the army in victory or defeat
be Blight win. the regards of the French popla,
but "Louis" retreating behind the petticoat of
the Empress under the present circumstaaoes
is only needed as a pendant to the "baptism
of fire" picture to rain the poor boy's imperial
expectations forever. The French people
Lave submitted for a long time to a strong
ruler whom they hate, but they would scarcely
endure a weak one who commenced his
career by being ridiculous.
The Kino of Pbussia telegraphs to his
Queen "Good news! A great victory has
been won by our Fritz. God be praised for
His mercy !" The Prussians have good cause
to say "God be praised," for the victory won by
"our Fritz" ia not merely the decisive repulse
of an insolent invader, but it at once demo
ralizes not only the armies and people of the
French Emperor, but his lukewarm allies
likewise, and will make them less
anxious than ever to join their for
tunes to his. Unless victory follows the
French armies, Denmark will wait for a
better season to win back Schleswig and
Holstein, and Austria will allow Sadowa to be
unavenged for a time longer. A vic
tory was scarcely expected for Prussia
nt this stage of the campaign, and its moral
effect in arousing the enthusiasm of all the
German people to make even greater efforts
than heretofore for the realization of the great
idea of a free and united Germany can
scarcely be estimated. The world expected
Prussia to bear a possible defeat with dignity
and equanimity; and if this victory is but the
precursor ot others even more glorious, the
world experts that the couqtierors shall take
tLe lead in freeing Europe from the fetters of
feudalism that still bind its people, and
become the champion of liberty.
Thk Andamank.se. From the otllclal report of
Surgeon V. Dht, F.T. S., F.Z, S., girinr an account or
t!ie aborigines of the Andaman Islands, says au
Kujjiish .iouriml, It scjtns that the Amlaraanese,
a'.taorg.'i they have bi;u accused of beiug canni
bal, aie not uni'Ae ourselves In many respects and
far superior to us ia other. They consider them
selves vi ry handsome, and one of the greatest pieces
of a'-utte !. to say, "Your nose Is ugly," or, "Your
laotit tleiouiud." They are very lazy, and their
tempers are Impatient. So tor they are our brothers;
but we s-houkl do well to follow their example lu
sonic of their social customs, which are a vast Im
provement on our own. There Is, if we may
be allowed to say so, among our i'.ngllsh ladies a
paucity rather thau a eupertliufy of clothing ou the
occasion of festive gathering.". It Is not so with the
Andaniawse ladies; or, at all events, there is an
Increase rather than a diminution of their garments.
TlieMualcs, It is. stated, who intt-ua dancing, "put
ou a few extra leaves." Also, If a person intends
dancing all night, "he 1ms an extra coating of paint,
which Is said to be jut on to prevent exposure."
At home, we siy it with grief, some of our elderly
ladles the mothers, iu fact, of our tribes who
have no Intention of dancing all night, but simply
act as chKperons, put an "extra coating of paint,"
which, however, dues not prevent "an
exposure" that but for the veneration with
which they are regarded might be considered
ungraceful and ridiculous. The Andamanese have
no medicines their great faith Is now la quinine;
but whatever drug is asked for tlicy lnvariablv ex
pect the donor to take some of it first, and then they
do not object to it This would be au admirable
plan for us to adopt with regard to our own chemists,
and would go far to check the sale of adulterated
drugs ; unless perhaps in the case of a customer who,
intending to commit suicide, asks for strychnine,
when the refusal of the chemist to take some
of the drug himself would be a test of
the genuineness of the article. The Adama
nese, like ourselves, go into mourning
on the death of their relatives, but show their grief
in a far more sensible manner than we do In Eng
land. If we have the misfortune to experience a
bereavement in hot weather, our misery Is aggra
vated by the stuily black clothing In which we are
compelled to array ourselves. The Andamanese
when In mourning simply daub themselves over with
olive-colored earth, a thick coating of mud being
also placed on the head. Olive mud ii also used as a
decoration when painted over the body in an orna
mental manner; Indeed, It forms often the only
clothing of the males, with the exception of a garter
below the knee, which can hardly be called clothing.
A BOY-MURDER.
One Hoy Ilila Another Willi a RowMer-lenth
of the Assailed iind Arrest of the Aaaallanc.
The Cincinnati Times of the Gth instant 6ays:
We are called upon to record another sad
affair, which resulted in the death of a German
boy named Beck. 'I he circumstances are, so far
as "we have them, as follows:
To-day about half-past ten o'clock, young
Beck, aged seventeen years, was sitting on the
curb-stone on George street east of Central
Avenue, eating his luuch with several of his
companions, when be was approached by a
mulatto boy named Henry Gilbert, about twelve
years of age, who struck him with a bowlder on
ihe left &ide of the head, inflicting a terrible
wound. He attempted to rise to his feet, but
fell over on his side, and was picked up by two
of his boy associates, but immediately requested
to be laid down. He was then taken into the
establishment of his employer, where he re
mained in an unconscious condition for about
one hour, when he died.
Gilbert, frightened by the act he had commit
ted, ran away immediately after, but was soon
arrested by police otllcer Parks, who placed him
in the Ninth Street Station-house. He seems
greatlv penitent at the deed he has committed.
The lifeless body of young Beck was conveyed
to his parents.
It seems that the boy Gilbert has been con
siderably annoyed by the youngsters in the
neighborhood, and this morning was enraged
by some of the boys blowing putty at him
through a tin tube. It is said that he made a
mistake as to the person, ns Beck was not so
engaged at the time of the affair.
