THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1870. 7 mUFStA AND RrSSTA TIIF NFW GOV- iijixa rowans of jsujiors. T tn the X. r. Herald. "I want more head and less tongne," said the greatest of modern leaders nud statesman when selecting men to fill the various otliees of ft new government that he was organizing. He meant that silent and steady work which allows attention to be fixed and concentrated on the task in hand, instead" of being diverted and frittered away by endless discussion and garrulous, noisy comment that, moreover, aisclose to all the world and place at the disposal ot open or hidden enemies what should lernaiu the treasured secret of the governing and controlling power alone. Ia the later days of the second Napoleonic empire talk and fanfaronade took the place ot that silent will and persistent onward movement which gave such apparently resist less and un varying BUcec-KS to its military 'tit'iprisesaud its diplomacy in the begiunii.g of its dashing career. Meanwhile, precisely the opposito system had been adopted and wan prevailing in rriiBHin. jlisrunrek is a thinker and a toiler, not a windmill of words, and from the moment when his intellect began to sway the destinies of his country babblers began to disappear from positions of high tru.d, and confidence. Noise ceased to be an element of official life. "Silence in the ranks!-' be came the civic as well as the military order of the day. Everything was thoroughly or ganized and put in shape, and when an Aus trian Cabinet with loud-mouthed threats and pompous bulletins advanced to win an easy victory, a it believed, in j (, the over whelming defeat at Sadowa suddenly and ter ribly revealed to it such skill, discipline, and resources iu the Prussian aut a , 'oniat as had not been evn suspected at. Vienna. Nay, at Taris, London, and even in New York, predictions had been nearly all upon the other side. The year 1K70 bus brought con spicuously before the world a repetition of this lesson, the more remarkable after so striking nn example precedent. In July Vast, the Trench Cabinet, composed of boastful talkers, who inflamed the pride and egotism of the nation, repeated the folly that Austria committed four years ago. In the meantime l'russia had been extending and developing her system of quiet prepara tion, and when collision camo the hastily assembled French armies saw themselves utterly outnumbered, outgeneralled, and oveipowerc d at all points. On the persons of captured German officers of inferior rank were found mnps of the smallest localities and crossroads in the districts that the in vaders wore approaching, such as were not in the possession even of the Imperial stall of Napo leon III. After Macilahon'sdtf cat at Woerth that distinguished marshal had to in quire the way, when retreating from the held, of the neighboring peasantry, and with no little ditliculty escaped the victorious Germans, who were rapidly and easily out flanking him through their superior topogra phical information. Agaiu, at Sedan the i'rench generals were evidently surprised, owing to a similar superior knowledge of the ground on the part of their antagonists. JSilenoe and celerity prepared and massed the Prussian forces, led them to the field, won for them the victory and hurled thorn upon the very heart of France. Talk was beaten; work was the conqueror. ltussia. sternly warned by the disasters of the Crimean war and the humiliations of the bitter Treaty of l'aris, has alsa been acting on the- silent plan. Gathering up and recon structing Ler naval and military forces, ex tending her telegraphs and railroads with feverish rapidity, purchasing the best arms and enginery of war and perfecting her ad ministration at every point, she, too, pos sesses, whdo we write, a capacity to strike how, when and where few, it' any, outside of her dominions, or not in high office within them, can jrotend to know. Sue never would have dared to brave the British lion in his den, as she is now doing, unless she knew a secret of tremendous pover and had it ta her grasp. A Herald correspondent, conversing recently with a llussiaa gen tleman of high btanding in the em pire, reprats the statement from his lips that the Czar has now four hundred thousand men not far from the Austrian fron tier, possesses five hundred thousand Re mington rilles and twothonsand mitrailleuses, along with a naval force "that is little known and Las always been underestimated." Again, a reliable letter, dated at St. Peters burg but a month ago to-day, uses precisely this language: "It is known that a new armament ot our forces is completed, and that the contingent amounts to more than one million of well-drilled soldiers, while, as regards utorule, it is far superior to what we possessed during the Crimean war." An other letter received from the Russian capi tal by the latest European mail and dated November :.'; says that the new law levy now in progress will yield five hundred thousand fresh troops, and that a "devouring activity" reigns in the War Office there, while at Kertcb, a naval port of great strength quietly constructed on the coast of the hea of Azof, everything is in readiness for an imposing demonstration of iron-clads on the lllack Sea, should occasion demand. At the same time an indescribable enthusiasm, almost fanatical in its excess, thrills throughout the empire, and in Austria the best informed publicists express little donbt that an uprising of the whole Slavonic race in favor of Russia would at once follow a declaration of war either by that power or against it. Tnia revelation bursts upon astonished Europe as a direct sequel to the surprises that Prussia has just hurled upon the nations like successive thunderbolts. The cloud of silent preparation tbat hid the laboratory of the Northern statesmen rolls apart and behold! Prussia and Russia disclosed as the masters of the scene. The one with seven hundred thousand tried, trnstyand victorious Veterans on tne soil of r ranee throttles that country at its capital and holds it down beneath her heel. The other but awaits the word to pounce upon Austria, should the latter Hit one hostile finger, and to swoop down upon all that is left of Turkey in Europe, while Great Britain another power lately bewildered with talk rather than sustained by action sinks, back perforce into a secondary pla. Tiie entente cormale is weignea in tne balance and found wanting, and King William and the Czar have become ihe arbiters ol the uui World. What may we now anticipate as the next result of this wondrous transfer of dignity and might '( First, a grand confederated German constitutional empire, embracing, along with the greater fcStates which already adhere, Alsace ana Lorraine, by right or re- conquest; Luxemburg, by necessity, and the iermanic provinces ol Austria and Russia. by political gravitation, the former power Ufiappeanug ultimately troin rue use 01 nrst lass Btates, and the latter receiving, in ooni- Lensation for her German duchies, the nndia- urbed faculty of marching southward and astward, by such arrangements of war or eace as her strengthor her diplomacy, or otb, can win from hex Slavonic and Ottoman leighbors. And what of France? Tho situation of ths hour plainly revenls.the fate intended for her to wit, either direct occupancy by the Ger mans for an indefinite period, or the restora tion of an Orleans or a Bonaparte, backed by such portion of the three hundred thousand French veterans now prisoners in Germany as would follow and support the homo-returning standard. Kirjg William, Emperor of Germany and Protector of France the latter held down in her place of penitence and service, as Osar held her, when she was Gaul, in the iron clutch of his Roman legions. And as Cn-sar placed his garrisons in tho chief centres of each of the seventeen Gallio provinces, so may the German conqueror maintain an adequate force in the main French marts of trml" and manufacture at Havre, at Cher bourg, at Lyons, at 8t. Etienne, at Bordeaux, at Marseilles, at Toulon, as well as at Paris tmd in the great fortresses. Thus could he sway the industry nod tho commerce of forty millions of Frenchmen to their own great material benefit, perhaps, at last, but by a magnificent system so far as Germany is con ceri'ed, yet protective as against the rest of mankind, to the vast prof t of his own race and realm. Should he restore a prince of either of tho fallen French dynasties to the throne he will be but returning the compliment conferroi by France when she placed the usurped crown of Mexico upon tho bead of German Maximilian; but he will not, like the French empire, leave that prince to perish. Protec tion from such a fate would bo the safe pre text for retaining a heavy armed contingent in the French capital and Inading cities. Above all, order, law and the peace of Europe would be the rubrio of the new con tinental system by the weight of the sword and tho "Grace of God'' viz.: Russian pennons fluttering from the Dardanelles to the Danube, and tho German imperial tri color and eagle combined waving proudly from the Danube to the Atlantic! And the end? Empires rise and fall and Bations change ; but tho one eternal, grand design pie vails. He who studies deeply may answer the anxious cry, "Watchman, what of the night?" which cheerful acconts. These very combinations, this drawing together and amalgamation of peoples, uniting them in struggle and disaster first, common effort and recuperation afterward, is but boating down the barriers, opening the way, pointing out a glorious common aim a mutual understand ing that shall precede the final peace which is to give birth at last, in the fulness of time, to tLe confederacy of Europe and to enduring, because broadly founded, and universal libeity. SU1UUTT AGAIN. The ('onnplrntor from a 'Political Htantl-iotut." To the JSttitor of the Herald: While In New York I deem It ray duty to state, for the henelit of the political pressor this city, that I do not appear as an exponent 01 party principle. 1 had no Mia that the press would regard me for an instat as a party lecturer, and feel themselves bound to take sides lor or against me. Alter the nattering (?) notices of last Friday and Satunlft? with wlilcli the New York World favored me, 1 visited on Saturday evening a gentleman of this city, a friend of mine, and one who stands high iu this political arena. I asked tils candid opiulon upon the course which tho World had taktu in denouncing me so bitterly. hen the rndleal press had been tamo iu compaiison to It. Said he: ".Marble is a personal and Intimate friend of mine, and 1 can safely say that )us was led to act as he did through two con siderations uuim-ly, that he had either to comn out and delend you or condemn you. 11c adonted the latter course, and for this reason. Had lie upheld you the whole radical press would have been down on htm. lie could not do tnat, fur the Democracy of tlim city has as much aB, if not more than, It can safely cany on its shouiders at present. Moie than that," said he, drawing hl3 chair closer, "the De mocracy of this city is rolttn to the core. Iu fact," lowering his voice to a whisper, "'tis as rotten us damnation. Had they attempted to side with you it might have been the lunt feather to break the camel's hack. So, in denouncing you, It was obliged to place you In the most infamous llzht pos sible, Iu order to give hu appearance of justification to its own action." "Do you mean to say," I asked, "that the press regarded me irorn a political standpoint?" "I do, most assuredly," ha replied. 1 was never more surprised in mv life, ami it is for this very reason that X taks this means of making known to the puVtlic that I am neither In the interest of the Democratic, Radical, reform, woman's lights noraav other party. 1 stand upon nuitral ground upon a platform of my own. As to whether It is good or bad my friends must be the judges, not my enemies, because 1 laugh to scorn any of their personal attacks. "Conscious to myself of right, 'i will not hu deterred from the course I choose to follow by the howlines and carpmgs of those who would be my friends if they dined. lOIlN 11. SfKKATT. New Yokk City, Dec. 13, IStO. Farmiuir operations In California are he'ins conducted this winter on a very large scale, in consequence of the increased demand for tood supplies in tho mining districts of Los Anirelcs and San Diero. In some of the central valleyb the increase of the beet crop for sugar makins will be quite extensive, in the southern coun ties several experiments are to be made iu cot ton raifclnp, while the breadth of wheat' in the Fame region will be very much greater than last year. The San Francisco press views theio tlgnt of prosperity with much -satisfaction. A gentleman residing at Bamror, Me., has had a very singular experience in chocolate makin;. The other morning he built a tiro in his cooking-stove, placed a pot of chocolate urn it, and went into the cellar to attend to the furnace. After an absence of a few mo ments he returned to find that the chocolate had boiled over; that the "grounds" had dried and ignited; that the flames tberclrom had set fire to the wall-paper, and that tho clothiug hangliitr. acrofs the room on a wire rope had bucu ahuoct entirely consumed. A party of hunters who lately penetrated into the Interior of a cave on Beaver creek, near Glasgow, Ky., in pursuit of a fox, were re warded for their trouble by the discovery of an oblong chamber, eighteen feet in length, cut out of the solid rock, containing the crumbling remains of human beings. The Glasgow Time believes tbat the cave must have been at one time need by a irang of murderers. "Within a few days past," eays the Time, "we have heard of a number of persons mostly travellers who many years ago disappeared while in this sec tion of conntry and were never afterwards heard of. One instance is remembered where a horse and buggy belonging to a traveller from Virginia were found loose upon the road near this cave, and its owner mieslug and never heard from. A citizen of Glasgow, Ky., who has had a ad experience with lawyers, recently drew up the following as his last will and testament- We the undersmed pray to the tort or the people of this county giving this to my airs, the airs of John laming the said parsel of land containing the shop to ihe airs of my estate wanting the rest of my pro perty to my children after paying my debts.
