TEE GUERILLA WARFARE OF THE
FUTURE.
From the Tall Matt GazttU.
There are certain questions of high import
fence to society, which are always debated
whenever they practically arise, and never
nettled, for the simple reason that both par
ties are in the right. Each has irrefragable
arguments to offer in favor of his views, and
neither can convince the other, or bring an
impartial judge to hta side, because their lines
of reasoning never coincide or meet in some
common issue on which judgment oan be
given. A familiar instance is to be found in
the discussion, which every fresh occasion is
certain to renew, on the right or wrong of
martial law in the popular (not professional)
ense of the phrase. Every one knows that
martial law, in this country at least, is
synonymous with no law at all. Every agent
of power who executes its decrees on a citi
zen is guilty of legal crime and punishable
by the regular tribunals. And every one
knows, which is more seriously to the
purpose, that its arbitrary character, and the
inflamed state of feelings nnder which it is
generally administered, lead to great excesses
and abuses. All this is undeniably true.
And yet it is equally true, on the other hand,
that the right to apply it must exist, and will
most certainly be resorted to whenever the
authorities are convinced that a resort to it is
necessary to avoid greater evils. No society,
whatever its form of government, will sub
mit to see its peace and its very existence
endangered from reluctance to use summary
means for its own defense. All that can
really be done is, to exercise the utmost cau
tion as to the occasion on which it must be
employed and the hands to which its execu
tion is confided. Controversy on the general
subject, on bases on which the two parties
are not and never can be agreed, is really
idle.
Precisely the Bame impossibility of solution
applies to the problem which is now so vehe
mently, and we must say so vaguely, agitated
about the so-called right of irregular resist
ance to invasion by regular soldiers. Civi
lians who take up arms for the defense of
their invaded country, or of their own hearths
and homes, threatened with military occupa
tion, are patriots according to one doctrine,
robbers according to another. And the two
doctrines will certainly continue to prevail in
contradiction to each other, without the pos
sibility of decision between them before the
tribunal of publio opinion or any other tri
bunal, so long as the great abuse called war
continues. War has its recognized code
in civilized countries, and acts done within
the limits of that code are sanctioned
by it. Outside the limits of that code all is
vague. There is neither law nor recognized
morality. No one can seriously condemn the
"partisan" or "freeshooter" or "guerilla"
who is driven into the field either by the
Bense of personal injury or by love of his
country, and takes the life of his uniformed
opponent. No one can seriously condemn
the military chief who seizes on him and puts
him summarily to death. Each acts in obedi
ence to his sense of duty; the one defends his
fatherland, the other protects the lives of his
soldiers. The only ready award between
them is on what we may call (without disre
spect) the feminine prinoiple, though com
monly adopted in time of need by masculine
reasoners also: I am in the right in this war,
yon are in the wrong; therefore I may shoot
at you from behind a hedge, but you may not
retaliate by hanging me.
And no nation was ever so lavish of this
kind of reasoning in the mouths of its chief
tains as the French, who now have to pay
the penalty of many a wanton indulgence in
it. The proclamation and despatches of the
First Napoleon may be consulted with ad
vantage as a perfect manual of tke audacious
fallacy which proceeds on the assumption
that the speaker is in the right, and therefore
that ordinary rules'of morality are nullified
er reversed as between him and his opponent.
In Calabria, the Tyrol, Spain, Russia, his
ang nage was always the same; a short shrift,
with as little as might be of preliminary in
quiry, for the civilian who had slain or re
idsted a French soldier. There was no affecta
tion of regret, no endeavor to 'establish
the nice doctrine that a man might be a
Eatriot, a hero, or a martyr in the eyes of
is own people, and yet must be shot as
a victim to the necessary law of self-defense
by another people. In those resolute eyes of
his they were all "brigands" alike, and their
extermination was not only indispensable, but
a debt due to justice. And yet, as we all
know, when the tables were turned on the
great conqueror, the opposite line of doc
trine was at once assumed and preached with
the same absolute self-confidence. The pea
santry of Champagne were urged in 1813 by
the most vehement appeals of their Emperor
to take up every man his musket, to throw
themselves on the rear of the invader, to cut
off his stragglers, to annoy him with street
fighting, to remember that every citizen in
case of invasion is dispensed from the con
ventional, professional law of military men,
and has to do his best or worst in defense of
country and sovereign. Now the orders of
"Napoleon were really justifiable in both cases.
In regular warfare, neither the invaded pea
Bant who shoots . the invading soldier not
the invading officer who commands the exe
cution of the peasant can be oondemned
according to any recognized prinoiple. The
only thing really noticeable is the cynical
daring with which Napoleon pronounced
judgment on both sides. The recently-published
extracts from the last Emperor's inter
cepted correspondence raise a painful remi
niscence connected with the same question.
Maximilian writes to him from Mexico an
nouncing, though with sensitive regret, the
measure into which military pressure had
driven him the proclamation of death to all
"guerillas," that is, bands of Mexican
'patriots." They were killing his Frenoh
soldiers, and from his point of view he had
the right to do it; but the exercise of that
right cost him his life, and, in strictness, not
unrighteously.
These are commonplace maxims, doubt'
less though, from the angry passion which
the exploits of franc-tireurs on the one side
and the retaliation exercised by German sol
diers on the other excite, not only in the
nations engaged in the strife, but in neutral
observers also, it would seem as if they were
very easily forgotten. But there is one par-
ticular in which their application is, so to
epeak, novel, and requires very close watch
ing from those who are clear-minded enough
to see through the smoke and tumult of the
tour. The two irreconcilable principles the
opposition of which we have pointed out
arose and have been as yet considered
tinder the hitherto ordinary circumstances
of European warfare a relatively small num
ber of discipline soldiers engaged against
each otter on ine wo sides, in suou a cane,
without pronouncing on abstract moral ques
tions, a fair arbitrator might easily say that it
was best with a view to speed y peace bent
with a view to humanity that those who
were paid to fight each other should be left to
fight it out; and that any violent interference
with their proceedings on the part of irregu
lars, whatever allowance might he made for
particular cases, must on the whole be dis
couraged as contrary to higher interests than
those of common patriotism. But it cannot
be reasonably denied that modern invasion,
as carried on by Germany in the present in
stance, does require to be looked at and
iudged from a wider view than that which has
hitherto prevailed. The German army, as the
admirers of the system boast, is no longer a
m6ra army; it is an armed nation, launched
in one fierce impulse against the heart of
another nation. Many more than half a mil
lion of men, armed and uniformed and com
ing within the denomination of regular sol
diers, oconpy not a few fortresses and camps,
but a considerable part of the surface of
France. And myriads more are on their way
thither. The "landwehr," in its conception
strictly a defensive army or militia, is con
verted for the nonce into an invading force,
and adds its multitudes to those of the first
contingent. Now, under these circumstances,
it is natural, at all events for the Freuohman,
to say that the ordinary conditions of the pro
blem what license is permitted to civilians
against soldiers are a good deal modified.
Your army, he may tell the German, in not
an army in the old popular sense, but an or
ganized nation; you have the start of me, but
you place me under the necessity of rousing
up an unorganized nation to meet violence
with violence. My f rano-tireur is not a bri
gand and your recruit a soldier because the
first is improvised for the occasion and the
second has had a couple of years' drill.
Neither is, in the old professional sense, a
"militaire" a member of a peculiar caste in
the nation, fenced round by recognized pri
vileges. Such, we say, might be the not
unnatural reasoning of the Frenchman, were
Frenchmen addicted to reasoning instead of
hysterics. The terrible consequences to
civilization of doctrines sanctioning a guerre
a outrance are plain enough; but what shall
we say of the novel organizing of military
nations which suggests such doctrines ?
The truly admirable and unrivalled
discipline of the Prussians, the patient spirit
of self-denial for it really seems no les3
which in the main controls their armies, may
on the other hand justify for the moment on
their part a claim that the privileges allowed
by international usage to the professional
soldier in time of war ought to be extended
to their citizen soldiery also. But no one
can count on the continuance of such condi
tions as these. And the only immediate
moral to be drawn is this Let him who dis
poses of so vast and anomalous a power as
the German army of 1870 abridge his employ
ment of it as much as he possibly can. Let
him hold the hitherto unheard-of nature of
his weapon for an additional reason for being
the less exacting as to the terms on which he
will sheathe it. Otherwise he provokes
another Nemesis besides that which threatens
the ordinary conqueror.
The Deaf Mate Murderer BodI.e.
New York Institution for the Instruc
tion or the Deaf and Dumb, New York,
Oct. 15, 1870. To tne Editor of the New
York Times: In your issue of Tuesday,
October li, you give an account, from a
Poughkeepsie correspondent, of the murder
of a respectable citizen of Ulster county by
Levi Bodine, an uneducated deaf mute, and
of the proceedings in the case had before
Judge Hogeboom, at the late session of
the Court of Oyer and Terminer in Kingston.
The question of the moral respon
sibility of an uneducated person, born
deaf and dumb, is one of the subtlest
in metaphysics, and in every case
in which it comes before the courts is a
source of great perplexity. The extremely
limited communication possible through any
interpreter, nowever BKiuea in pantomime,
and the utter ignorance of the deaf-mute of
the language of the country, united with the
absence of all knowledge of either human or
divine law, invest the subject with peculiar
difficulties, and it is only by ascertaining
whether he has learned by any means that
certain consequences will follow a given act
that be can know the act is wrong. The natu
ral resentments of an uneducated deaf-mute
are, therefore, peculiarly dangerous, and it
becomes the duty of every one knowing of
the existence of such a person, to see
that he is sent to an institution where
he may be taught his relations to God
and man, acquire Buch a knowledge
of signs that he can be communicated with
freely through an expert, and such a com
mand of tne ingusn language as snail render
written, and if he possesses unusually quick
perceptions, or some of hearing, even vocal
conversation with him possible. Every State
in the Union makes publio provision for the
education of the deaf and dumb, either in an
institution of its own, or in one established
in a neighboring State, and the State of New
York is especially liberal in this respect, pro
viding free admission into this institution of
any deaf mute over the age of six and nnder
the age of twenty-five, if his parents are un
able to incur the expense of his board and
tuition. Important as is the know
ledge of these facts to the community,
should not nave troubled you witn
this communication but for the
statement of your correspondent that the pri
soner charged with the murder of Mr. Has
brouck would, probably, be sent to this insti
tution. To relieve the anxiety which such an
announcement may have occasioned to the
numerous friends of the pupils now under
instruction here, it seems to me important
to Btate that no individual accused of crime
against any person or showing symptoms of
insanity can by tne regulations ot tue msti
tution be received as an inmate. In the case
of the prisoner, if the judge should see fit to
confine him in some prison or reformatory in
this vicinity, in the House of ltefuge, for
instance, 1 would undertake to charge my
Bolf with his education and thus make pro
bable bis restoration to the virtuous among
the community.
Very truly and respectfully yours,
Isaac Lewis Peet, Principal.
