Karl M'lil'.elm, the composer of the most popular muhlo to the son, Is still livtrnr. and has reoeived the golden medallion presented to hi in by the Vuetn. That he deserves the reward a well as the author of the words Is proved In tlio oases of all nepular honps; Words without music can never take root and become national. The story of the composition is gWen as follows: W II helm was at IClberfeld in the midst of a lively, social clrcfh, and played the piece on the piano exten p re. Urgently pressed to write out the uotes, he weut to his rootii (No. 8 of what was earlier the Ohurpft'js Hoi), and did so. This was between the jears 1810 and ISM). Elberfeld possessed a young singing quartette that has since become celebrated. The four brothers Hteluhaus sung the "Wacht am Klieln" on all their professional tours, and when King AVlliieliu of Prussia attended a garden festival p.e to his honor at Elberfeld on the 6!h of Inly, ltM, the brothers gave Wllhelm'a song. The King (then 1'Miice o l'russia) was so pleased with It that heiuo.eii the name of the composer, and iu 1S60 he endowed him with the honorable title of "hoyal Musical Director." Though Wlllielin has since had many brilliant odors or public position, he has steadilv refused to be at ti acted Into puulio life. He was iu 189 music teaeher in Fraokfort-on-the-Main, iroin 1H40, or for a number of years, di rector of the Lied-rtarel at Clrefeld, and now he Is living in hi little native town or Schmaikalden, and would there have, in all probability, died forgotten, had not the present war brought his song out from ita long repoae. He Is now Bfty yenra of age. His portrait is published In many of the Oerman papers. il KTTIMJR E AI Y. lla f'toatin I'rennred Tor the Htruaale with I'niiirr-Ollieliil le veloiiieula. In an uitU'Ie In the ,Staata Anztijtr, the ottlolal organ of l'mtsia, the Government begins to lift the veil nnder n bich It concealed its early preparations for the war. It says: Our military leaders knew well that Prance would . put forth frivolous pretences to bring about as an Kulnary col'uion. Aud It has now. iudeed, ouuiu so , lar that the political ecceniricities nave been matched by corresponding military measures. A - mass of me hundred tuousand French troops were liuirlci In pn.cipitate haate to the Ulienisti bordora, v tillj the rriissian battalions wer as yet distributed over the giti nsons of the monarchy. The start of the French Uh greatly favored by their network of railways, bur, far more so by the large bodies of troops uihs.-i together lu permanent camps. The l'rusbiau situaii'iu was not equally favorable. Al though imtrooile troops might have been hurried to the frontiers, a diiroreiu mode of proceeding waa prefers d. Corps taken awav from pacific pur eults might, jit-ihups, be in a position to gain a mo mentary hik i. hm, but they ure not organized to brave the vt isntudes of a great war. It was, there fore, tien e.i weil to prcparu the lorces for the con- test in the regular way, and to protect the German territory to m me extent by the small numbers which KarrlMon the western boundary, it was fully known that if the enemy were possessed of some energy, It would have been impossible that we should oiler strenuous resist ance or prevent his subsisting at the expense of a portion of our country. All Uie Ger man trtiopn remained, therefore, in their garrisons until tlu v vrie ready to join in the actual opera tions of the war. The hasty and confused organization of the French army at our bor ders was opposed by feeble garrisons, and, the commanders being deceived, ibetr army waa not placed in a position to live at our expense. Jt is well known that the main forces of the trench were moved to wains the harre, and especially towards haarbruck, on Ike very dar when iu Berlin the order for the mobill.ation were Issued. Iu naarbruck were thou one battalion of the euth Kegituent and three Hquadrons of the Uhlan Kegimeni No. 7 The danger of this small division was well known, bat It was necessary to impose upon the enemy without disturbing the preparations of the army. During a Whole fortniuht this Intrepid handfull faced the enemy, in whose estimation It gaiued every day creater proportions, until it grew In the French journals to the number of ttou.ooo men. Daily skirmishes of tue patrols were represented in the war news of the French as magnificent encounters. On the part of the I'rus aians these rodomontades could not be exposed without permitting the secrets or Berlin to be be trayed at l'arls. Alter the arrival of Information that two French corps were lu close proximity to cur feeble detachment, this brave band was oa the poknt of being withdrawn. Hut the commander, on Festel, begged by telegram to be left at his post, and he added, "The bearing of the French shows that they are afraid of ua." This request was readily granted, especially as It was now possible te rein force the small detachment by two battalions, and. moreover, to place at a distance of two (Herman) miles a body of troops to protect the retreat of these uefenders. This bronght about the famous "11 rat battle of Saartiruck." : " peace. The CiiiRNiBirfia that tJermaaT will Hequtre. The iVorfi Ciman Currtirpoiulent, In the latest Jbsue received by mail, has a leading article pointing out that the mere substitution of one form of gov ernment for another la France will not aUord Qer- ' many the guarantees the requires against another W-r of aggression. It says: 'If we ever cherished the Illusion that the iabstl tntlon of another dynasty for that of the 11 jnapartes ' would secure to kurope the blessings of continued peace, it has been rudely dispelled by the avowal of Thiers that be was opposed to the war only because he believed France was not sufficiently prepared; and since that time by the letter of the Duo de Joln vllle to the (JauU is, in which he eulogizes the people of Wlaeemburg for treacherously nrtng on German troots, who, tightlntr only against French aoldlera, bad no desire to molest the civil population. At thU moment, wbtn the leaders of the Opposition, PelleUn, Jules Favre. Ficard. and their followers, are trrlnir to wrest the power from the hands of an incapa ble aovere'gu. U la with the Intention of direction the jNauonai tiuard and me remains or the regn'ar army aganst the conquerors, and of uitl zuateir Invading Uormany, If victorious. - In short, uwe if, Fraace, ubjvctwd to ever possible form Of (roTPmrnent, and nnder control of th most op posite parties, has never ceased to extend her terri tory tU. the epne of hr neighbor, and Oerminy has been the pMnctpal sutrerer. The great tract of tcniDtry, !: ludlng the whole ot Alsace and I ratbt-, present otvnpied by our heroic troops, oncn forniel a portion of th (trnnn empire, from which It was partly obtained by artifice, and partly severed by force. The time In a at letigth come when Germany must cease tn be inolctd by France, and secure for herself a long period of unbroken peace. It would he nbsuM to expect this from a mere clmngo of dynastr, for the next sovereign would probably seek popularity bv trying to restore the lost military prestige of F'rance, and we should have to support the iHtolor able burden or a perpetual armed peace. If France Issues from the present war aa strong as ever, with all the bulwarks Intact, from behind which she me naces the Khlne Province and the Palatinate, we shall npalu find ourselves contlutially exposed to the danger from which the bravery of our troops nnd the Inaptitude or the French commanders have this time delivered us. We shall have no con fidence In peace, and a few years later we shall be for-ed to repeat the mighty sa'crlllceswe are making to-day. Is this to e the weak and Inadequate ter mination of the great struggle on which we have entered to defend our national existence? And ahull we not. before laying town our arms, exact satis. actory guarantees that we shall not be again suddenly Involved In a contest for life or death, w believer it Is required by the political necosdtles or the rulers of Frsnct?" Fit EX C II WAU LOANS. How Nnpolron Raised ttleney I Prosecute Ills i Wnrn. The Pails Trmpt of August 28 gives some particu late concerning the conditions on 'vhlch the former war kinns of the Empire were contracted iu Friimn, It says: On what conditions were the loans of 13M. PWS and lv.p ellected ? In ths first ot those years two appeals were made to public credit. That voted on the 11th or March was ror 250,ono,OQn or francs, at the rate of sixty-five francs twenty-five entimns per cent. ; the nemiMT of applications was JH.ihh) for a total or 4G7,Ono,oon, or which es.noo ouO lu GO.u to subscriptions of fifty francs each. That of the Slst December waa for hOO,MHi,(MX, when 179,000 subscri bers oircrcd 8, (xmi, 000,000 of rrancs. The loin or 1So5 was for 7:i,ooo,00u, still at the same rate. Nearly 817.000 applicants pre sented their selves; the share of France was four times the capital demanded, and 6i,ottO,uiHj were also offered from foreign countries. Tlio war In Italy lu lr9 required only a single loan of roo,bon,ooo. The price was about live francs lower than In those of thcUrimesn war, because the move ment or affair had lost much of its intensity since the pretended marvels or the early d iys of the empire, and because speculators were mncli more alaimcd at a struggle on which France enteral alone and for unknown results, than at tlio expedi tion of Nebastopol, which was so costly, hut wtiich was undertaken In alliance with Kngiand. Butttn low pilce or rentes only rendered the subscriiiera more numerous: 85.0uo presented themselves in Paris and 44,r,(K1 in the departments, tha amount appiled for being 2,r.(MH'0,(KXi. Hluce that date loans with out any political character have baen raised In lbKfi the Slate and city of Paris made simultaneous appt a's to en dit. The rate of the former, all de ductions made, was 67f. 68o. ; the government offered lS,5t.0,(i00 fiancs or rentes; Sll'i.ooO subscribers an plled ror more than 6US,000,OjO, or a capital 6r l.roOjOoo.otio. As for the city of l'arls It issued 783.009 three per rent, 4onr. bonds at MM, ; 459,000 applications were made for a total or 2ff,oeo,oio, and aa Sir. ha t to be paid on subscriolng, the amount of the deposits formed the double of the total loan. Those lesults were looked upon as marvellous, although Ihey proved nothing m ire than the grow ing tas'e of the public ror the small prouts which the most Imnible subscription permits to be realized la the public loans, and also the forethought shown by each In Increasing his demand as nui''h as p.isslble, iu order to provide against the chauces of a re duction. MAXXIM. The Arrest of iheOreut llnllan Agltaipr. Writing under date of August 17, the Florence correspondent or the Echo nays: "Tne arrust tf Wuzzlul Is the great piece or news with us iu Flor ence.

Nothing can uii.ro signally prove the greit change in public opinion in the last lew years than the mere wordy excitement with whljli the news of the arrest was lecetved. Kvery one talks of it, but simply aa a piece or new a a few years ago no Government whatever would have beju strong enough to have ordered ins detention. Ueyond Ber tani's passionute and unreasonable speech on the . object iu the Chamber, there haa been as yet no re stbtance nr outcry. Heme of his friends assi-rt, to be sure, that it is a part of a plau of his own, and that, had he chosen, he could have eluded the police, as he has invariably done the last forty years. However that may be, for the next few weeks tie will be onable te cause mischief. At this critical moment, a man i-o ranatlcal'y in earnest, and so blind to all but his own theories and aspi'atious, however noble and disinterested they mav be, is a dangerous element in an atranspnero already over charged with political excitement. A single raise step now might plunge Italy Into complications from which she would find it impossible to extricate her self. Kvery respect and consideration compatible with the safety and honor of the nation will, of course, he paid to the old man, whose long life has been spent in devoted (If latterly in mistaken) efforts to serve the country he has loved, "not wisely, but too well." IN THE JAWS OF DEATH. A Voudbt rrTRn Rolla and Tumbles Down Woro Mock Over Twe IluuoreU Fret. From the San LuU Obitpo Standard, Aug. 20. On last Saturday, a party, consisting of Rev. II. It. hpooner and others, went on a pleasure trip to Moio rock. Having reached the place in safety, one of the party, by the name of William Smith, thought he would perform the feat of ascending the rock. He did ao aud waved his handkerchief four cr live times to his companions laslow in triumph or his success. He started to make the descent altogether In a different direc tion. This proved the most perilous and diilicnlt. xiaving already passed over some very ugly and dangerous places (which he could notre asccud), be came to a place that looked still more dangerous. There he was, aud what must he do? Having considered the matter a short time, which was a case almoot or lire and death with him If he stayed there he would starve and perish ;ir he at t mpted to reach the bottom he might get his brains dashed out, he thought Dually that there was a bet ter allow lor his life to get ahead. On he went, slid ing, rolling, and tumbling catching at every pro jecting rock and brush that happened in his way. He missed all the probable chuncea of a foothold. He came to the most precipitous part of the rock. He gave up all hope of saving his life death stared him in the lace. He commended his soul to God, closed his eyes and) on he went, helter-skelter, down the rock. Finally he got to a cliff several feet lu height, over which lie turned two or three somersault, and landed with a thud loud enough to be heard by the rtstof the party. From that place he again rolled until lie iracln-d the base of the rock. His friends went immediately to his assistance, expecting, or couise, to liud him dead. To their astouisuieut he was "ilghl side up," alive aud able to talk. He was terribly bruised up severul cuts were fonnd about his head und body, having been Inflicted by the pro jecting rocks. Mr. P. immediately placed Mm In hla buggy and took hliu to his owji" house. Tae next day he was ab.'e to rldo home, a distance of teu miles. At last accounts he waa doing pretty well.

We have no definite information aa to what num ber of men have been taken away from the works, but we understand that the production of iron in Belgium has cer tainly been very much diminished of late. In Germany aud France, of coarse, the war has cauaed an almost complete suspension ef manu facturing operations, and as many of the establish ments were largely engaged In manufacturing roll ing stock and materials for the Itusslan and Austrian railways, it la highly probable that many of the con tracts will come to this country to be executed, and that for a long time to come the production of Iron In those two countries, aud especially la Germany, will be much diminished.
