Ka7 The Evening Telegraph, from Its original establishment, has been in the receipt of telegraphic news from the New York Associated Press, which consists of the Tribune, Times, Herald, World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Post, Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Ex press. The success which has attended our enterprise is, in itself, a sufficient evi dence of the freshness, fullness, and relia bility of the news which we have received from this source. Last March we entered Into a special contract by which THE Evening Telegraph has the exclusive use of the news furnished in the afternoon by the Associated Press to its own members, the North American, Inquirer, Ledger, Press, Age, Record, and German Democrat, of this city, and the leading journals of the East, North, West and South ; and hereafter The Telegraph will be the only evening paper published in this city in which the afternoon despatches of the Associated Press will appear. STANDING ARMIES. If any new arguments were needed to con firm the wisdom of the founders of our re public in opposing the creation and mainte nance of large standing armies, they would be famished by the modern experience of Franoe. We need this lesson now on account of the regret felt at the prolongation of our war, the prevalence of a feeling that it was invited, in part, by the military weakness of the Government, and the reluctance displayed in some quarters to the reduction of our army to its present standard. But when we see how powerless the regular forces of the Em pire were against an uprising of a hostile people, and how quickly a succession of ter rible defeats of this vaunted organization followed upon years of infamous peculation, we may well congratulate ourselves upon adherence to the old system of relying, in all great emergencies, upon the citizen soldiery of the land. It is now growing more and more apparent that one great use to which the French army Vras put in peace was the enrichment of a horde of Imperial thieves, the ringleader being no less a personage than Napoleon himself. His salary amounted to such an Immense sum that with all his audacity he Boaroely dared to openly ask the nation to increase it, and to eke it out he became the Aooomplioe of the rascals of a lower rank who pocketed the pay, rations, and supplies of regiments in buckram. As France was thus robbed, Amerioa would be victimized under Eimilar circumstances. In this line of knavery our politicians and contractors need no les Bona from the Emperor and his fellow-thieves, and we have plenty of ambitious great men Who woald delight in plundering tax-payers during a long peace under the pretext that they were maintaining a splendid standing army which, in actual war, would go down before the first powerful foe that attaoked it. We need a small regular army as a nucleus, an abundance of well-trained officers, and it la desirable that there should always be a Considerable body of well-disciplined volun teers, but there is scarcely any way in which Buch vast sums of money could be uselessly and injuriously squandered as by an imitation Of the system which has produced such dis astrous results in Franoe. If threatening foreign complications or domestic revolts render it probable that a large force may sud denly be required, a modification of the Prussian system could be devised here which would assure an abundant supply of good Boldiers; and during the present generation, at least, we can count confidently upon the skill and v.ilor of those who learned the mur derous art in the hard school of the Rebel lion. But the corruption for which the regular army of France furnished a pretext, and its inefficiency, were not the only objections to it. It was the bulwark of Napoleon's tyranny at home and abroad. Its ranks were always full enough to keep the French people in sub jection, to overawe agitation, to prevent a fair expression of public grievances, and to maintain despotism. We are fortunately free from such dangers, but if a large stand ing army was maintained in this country, it would be a mere question of time when it would be used to crush American liberty. Sooner or later a pretext would be furnished for its employment as an agent of despotism, and some popular and ambitious general would crush the republio of the United States as Ciesar crushed that of Rome and as the first Napoleon destroyed the first republio in France. In the autumn of 1813 Madame de Stael wrote in the preface to her work on Germany these words: ''It is three years since I designated Prus sia, and the countries of the north which sur- LL, v. the country of thought; into how . i .'.tier s has this thought been trans 1 i Veil TV at to whioh the systems of phi ! V w 1 d the way is coming to pass, and t u:.--.pei ence of mind is about to lay I t .jiifev.on of the independence of na- Frussia was then in its infancy. Sixty years, but a small portion of the lifetime of a nation, has since rolled round, and we behold now how 1U thought Las matured into action. Gems conoreting fortunes in their tiny facets have furnished a favorite theme for fiction, but even the novelist's imagination could not group around the story of the "Moonstone" more wondrous incidents than have attended the veritable wanderings of that splendid amethyst which was sent to the beautiful creo'e Josephine Beauharnois by her imprisoned husband, which thenceforth gleamed upon her hand through all the strange vicissitudes of her eventful life, and after attending her through glory and dis grace, was taken from the clay-cold finger of the divoroed Empress to gleam again upon the hand of another Queen. From the dead finger of the dethroned and exiled Hortense it was again taken to follow the marvellous career of her son, to be bone through beg gary, exile, and imprisonment until it should again gleam upon a throne ef empire, and now it ends as it began, with an imprisoned Beau harnois Napoleon the Third. The cold, sense less gem lives on, while generations of men rise and fall, and it is only a segment of its life that is comprised between that first Reign of Terror that deluged the streets of Paris with blood and that widely different Reign of Ter ror that threatens it to-day. Language is the natural expression of in dividual thought, and necessarily conforms in many respects to the individual peculiari ties. No grammar can constrain every mind to work by the same methods, or bring that unruly member, the tongue, into complete subjection to the same rules. In the struc ture of a language, therefore, may be found the illustration of the mental characteristics of the nation that uses it, and this finds no better illustration than in a comparison be tween tbe speech of the French and the Ger mans. The French, rapid, sharp, epigramma tic, compels a hasty and condensed expres sion a broad, unlimited assertion, and al most courts interruption by the structure of its phrase; while the German moves steadily onwards to the close of its ponderous period, which at its very ending modifies the whole sense of the assertion. The French inter jeots its statement instantly and without reserva tion; the German must be patiently followed to master its meaning. The French is dra matic, the German didactic; the French bril liant and terse, the German serious and pro found; the French incomplete, tbe German thorough. The Frenchman explodes his thought, as he does his deed, leaving the fu ture to correct its inaccuracies; the German fences his position and explains his meaning thoroughly before he leaves it: his assertion ends with a full stop, the Frenchman's closes with a dash. The Republican leaders of France are evi dently determined to leave Prussia no pre text for a prolongation of the war. They will accede to everything that can be honorably surrendered. But it is said that King William will not treat with them on any terms, on the ground that they do not possess the requisite authority, the German theory being that the old Corps Legislatif and the Regency is the Government de jure, and the only one com petent to frame a binding treaty. There is a certain degree of plausibility in this notion, but the business of hunting up or setting up governments which have not a veritable ex istence rarely proves profitable, and even German armies will find themselves scaroely competent to control the erratio politics of France. The long-looked-for uprising, which has not been produced by invasion or invest ment of the capital, may come at last if any open or covert attempt is made to re-establish the empire. Germany, although she has her hands pretty full at present, has yet time to look ahead In such mat ters, for instance, as education. All the universi ties being nearly closed now, professors as well as students having gone either to fight or to bind up wounds, the regular programmes for the lectures In the forthcoming winter term are Issued and pub lished as usual. Again, twenty-eight out of the thirty non-theological professors of the university at Munich have, at the instigation of the theologi cal professors, Issued a stirring protest not only against the Infallibility but against the (Ecumenicity of the Vatican Council. And, while this protest takes its stand on the Bavarian Constitution and State law, the theological faculty in its turn is pre paring a manifesto in the same sense upon theolo gical grounds. The publication of the dogma Itself In Bavaria will not be undertaken by the unwilling archbishop la a hurry, even If no special ministerial prohibition should be Issued agalust It OBITUARY. Deo. Illram Ketcbuiu. The death of Hon. Hiram Ketchum, at Rlverdale, Westchester county, New York, sued seventy-elght, Is the death of another of our valuable and distin guished men who have made great marks in their day and generation. Mr. Ketchum was born la the northern part of New York State, and emigrated to the city of New York over forty years ago, when that city ended at Bleecker street, and when Brook lyn and Jersey City were but little towns, and hence In his lifetime he saw a city grow, and nearly all the institutions In It. In almost all af these institutions religious, civil, literary, scholastic, social, and poL lltlcal, Mr. Ketchum acted a great part. Mr. Ketchum was best known for two events In hiB life the one, his ardent, life-long devotion to Daniel Webster, who, next to Edward Curtis and It. M. Blatchford Lee, was his confidential friend; and tho other, his sharp and prolonged controversy with Archbishop Hughes on the public schools. Tue two great contentists were well matched la earnestness and perseverance. Frequently both appeared before the city authorities, to argue their respective sides, and as frequently In print. The contest ended with a victory lor neither, while the public schools were kept as they had been, open to all, Jew and Uentile. Ilia l&nl appearance before the public, last winter, was in the public press, in resistance to sectarian schools. uPx?J7e of Mr- Ketchum for Daniel Webster was me the love of a woman rather than that of man tor man. There wa nothing he would not do for Mr. V ebster that could be done in honor. He believed in Mr. Webster with his whole heart and soul, and never saw a fault or error In him Hence the Great Impounder gave him in most mat era his entire coniidence, while Mr. Ketchum here, on ever? occJ eion in public or in private, did all he could to exalt and ennoble thefcreat statesman and orator Mr. Ketchum had an ambition for political 'life hut be never fairly got Into it. This city during hla'viir orous manhood was a Clay city, and never f uiv cave its heart to Mr. Webster. But Mr. Ketchum as a public speaker was ever welcomed by the W'bijM and as a writer he as one of the best dialecticians of the day. "A Whig from the Start" his iiunx u plume at one time did wonders in savins; a great body of the Whigs from running after Governor Seward In all his unit and olvjicM and ite. In later ille, Mr. Ketchum, having "nowhere else to go " voted with the Democracy. He worked hard and wrote much for General McClellan. Old citizens who have known Mr. Ketchum for years will, without distinction of party, rijre t and mourn nvr hia dnnurtiiru r - .?... ...... - ' l' v i ' ii. rr B9 UiBll til a made friends of aU who knew hlui wvli.

The Immense establishment of II. M. DALY, No. 222 SouSh FRONT Street and. No. 139 DOCK Street, Is probably the largest In the United States. Five stories in height. It runs through from Frout to Dock street, a distance, we may say, of 213 feet. And this huge building Is tilled from cellar to attic with the very rarest and purest brands of whiskies. Tbe seeker after the genuine article can find Bourbon of old date, wheat ditto, and that champion of all whiskies, the Golden Wedding. It Is sufficient to note here that Mr. Daly's stock embraces the pro ductions of the celebrated distilleries belonging to Thomas Moore & Son, Joseph S. Finch & Co., and Thomas Moore. Their whiskies are always maae from the best grains, double copper distilled and put up in seasoned, heavily-charred, Iron-bound barrels. As agent, t her fore, of these well-known firms, Mr. Daly justly claims that he can supply the trade with tbe finest whisky In the market, and la the original vackagea as received dvect from the manufacturers. This he will vouch for, and this la a point which de serves the notices of all purchasers. 9 13tuths20t A QUEER CASE.
