"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.

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.

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
