THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, F1UDA Y, DECEMBER 22, i&70g G GERMAN WAR CARICATURES. the rallifall QastUe. So far the fortune of war has not been f aTorable to the interests of facetious art. It in only those that win who can laugh, and the French are unquestionably better hands at laughing than the Germans. - Any one who knows Paris and its humors can imagine the crop of caricatures that would be now on view at the kiosks, along the Boulevards, and in the Palais Royal if tne armies of France were in Germany as conquerors and not as prisoners.' "What acres of pictorial "chatt" there would hare been about Bismarck and Moltke and "ce vieux Guillaumo." What bold exaggerations of the Pickelhaube and the pipe of the Prussian soldier; what fun would have been made of the many awkward positions in which the latter would have been perpetually finding himself through the elan and astuteness of his adversaries; and, above all, what a number of good things, smart and epigrammatic, would have been Riven as coming out of the mouths of Zouaves and Tnrcos. All this has been lost to the world, and nothing comes from the other side that at all adequately fills the void. The German hand is heavy in war, as poor France has discovered to her cost, and it is by no means light in caricature. It rarely plays with the subject in an allegorical or fanciful way, but rather comes down upon it with a sound thump, which leaves very little doubt as to what an artist means. German philoso phers may be obscure, but the German war caricaturists certainly are not. As Thackeray Baid of Hogarth, there is very little mistake about their satire; if they have to draw a man with his throat cut, they draw him with head almost off. They are plain spoken, even to coarseness sometimes. The most popular war caricature in Germany, or at least the most widely circulated, is that one which called forth the protest of our correspondent "Nemo" the other day, in which half-a-dozen German soldiers, repre senting the constituency of the Confederate army, are shown administering to the Em peror, Empress, and Prince Imperial, toge ther with "Flon-Plon," Gramont, and Olli vier, that simple form of manual chastise ment with which delinquencies are visited in the nursery. Some, even more coarse, are quite as broad as any of Bunbury's produc tions, to which, in execution and treatment, they bear a strong resemblance. Indeed, if caricatures were classified, like fossils, ac cording to strata of different periods, a large number of the German war caricatures of this autumn would bo without hesitation set down by scientific men as belonging to the Bunbury formation. Their structure and functions are entirely of that age. We have to go back long way now to arrive at the time when the myth about frogs being the staple article of food with Frenchmen had still sufficient vitelity in it to serve as a foundation for the artist. Nevertheless, in several of these Ger man sketches it turns up quite fresh and lively. In a very grotesque bird's-eye view of the Camp at Chalons, published at the time the Crown Prince was marching on it, the French soldiers are shown hunting frogs, spitting them on ramrods and roasting them ; and in several others the frog makes his appearance, obviously as a general emblem of French diet. This is very curious and interesting. In the first place it is a new illustration of the wide range of popular myths and legends. Most people here, we imagine, would have said that this idea of frogs and Frenchmen was purely Britannic, and could only flourish among unenlightened islanders. And then it is curious to find it cropping up now among the Germans, the people of all others among whom accurate information on all subjects is most widely diffused, and who ore supposed to be pre-eminently skeptical in matters not warranted by reason and experience, while among our benighted and superstitious pea santry it would be difficult to find a man who did not regard the notion of the French living on frogs as a fable too long exploded to be even available for joking purposes. The series published under the title of "Flugblatter". is mainly of this sort; but though there is not much refinement in the drawings there is sometimes a good deal of rude humor. An illustration of the famous Kaarbrucken despatch from the Emperor to the Empress, or as it is facetiously put 1 'from mitrailleur to mitrailleuse," announcing the fire baptism of the Imperial Prince, has a certain rough comicality, about it. The Prince is on his knees playing with the very large ball "which fell quite close to him," while his father regards him with ' admiration and uplifted hands, and soldior of various arms standing round with most grotesquely sentimental expressions f , countenance, dropping tears of portentous size. The Em peror, it may be observed, in almost all these portraits is endowed with a mighty paunch, just as immediately on "the breaking out of the Crimean war the Eaipe ror Nicholas swelled out iu the hands of the comic draughtsman. This seems to be a common practice with the political carica turists. The only notable exception we can recollect is Gilray, whose portraits" of the First Napoleon nearly always suggest extreme lankness. Another of the same series, which seems to be very1 popular in Germany, h entitled "Das lange l'ferd." The animal, however, is an , unmistakable donkey, and is labelled "Frankreich." Under the fore legs is the date 1S0, ; under, the ' hiud lS7i; and on its back are figures intended for the first Republic, the First Napoleon, Louis XVIII, Charles X, Louis Philippe, the Beoond Republic, Napoleon III, and, l&Btly, the present republic a very diminu tive figure, trying hard to preserve a precari ous seat just oyer the root of the tail. In front is a i svausp, t morass of ouie sort. with (of course; i roc's in u, ana ueuiua a Prussian Boldier with a whip in driving the I donkey into it; while above, on each ' siie, in i retreats like aentrv-boxes emblematic, no aoubt, of the place where qood noldiers go When they die Are the flgare of "Old IVltV and Uluclier, looking down approvingly, an 1 saying ; 'Bravo." Another shows the ivope- xot blowing bubbleH, labelleJ "Mexico," "Bel ghun," "The Jtbine," etc., while the little , Prince says, "Oh, papa, what beautiful bub- ! Lies you do blow." The reception of th'3 news of the republic by the Emperor is tun subject of another. "Hurrah!" he says, "a 4 republic in Trance. Xhat'a.aU riht. . I'll get myself made president as before, and then, after a - year or tw v I II, be Emperor again." - Then there ara illdstra- ' tions in abundance of popular national son-s. Napoleon's "WaoLt am P. bain' U depicted iu a sketch of the Emperor on the back of a Turco bnrveying the Khine frontier, au I hi yearnings in that same direction furuiu a fancy illustration for "Du, du liegst zuiri.n Jleren;" bat the moat elaborate, at loast as a ork of art, is a well-axecuted engraving, which may be considered as a aort of ohvc to Gustavo Dore's spirited "Uhin Alleoiand ' sketch. It is entitled ."Zoruck," and reprs ersta s German soldier with fixed bayonet rfcecliBg the Emperor's ad van do on ths Jihine, and Maying, "Yen, and oven if you were the Pttit i'uporal himself, J'd say, rick." 11 febd-ls published lm'ljr tuo title of 'Zivndnale!n" take a more ambitions flight and show better drawing. English and Belgian neutrality is handled in one sketch which shows England giving rifles to the French with one hand and taking money with the other, while Belgium Is making pets of the French soldiers. In another Bismarck is rejecting the overtures of a motley crowd of representatives of neu tral powers, among whom John Bull figures in an imposing court suit and chancellor's wig. He tells them he can make no nse of their proposals, and that they had better write back to their bouses to say that his firm has already, Nicderlngenin Frankreich gemacht," that its Alsace and Lorraine branches are firmly established, and that for the future the House of Germania means to do business on its own account. If this is to be taken as an indication of the popular feeling, it does not look well for the chances of intervention. Another subject dealt with by the German caricaturists is the attention lavished on the captive Turcos by the German ladies. They appear to feel strongly in this matter. In one picture the olficer in command of . the escort addresses a bevy of ladies who are dallying with some very hideous Africans on a railway platform "Now, then, ladies, if you want to kiss those blaok pets of yours make haste, for the train's going to start.' Another is a view of an imaginary "Ileiraths Bureau fur Tnrkos," in which Turcos, drawn aa like monkeys as possible, are being made fierce love to by a number of German dam sels. One lady is showing her affection after the fashion prevalent in monkey society by relieving her beloved of what we may de scribe, by a convenient phrase borrowed from "Lothair," his "social parasites." There is considerable drollery about the wood-cuts to a comic history of the war in several sheets, in which all the incidents are given in due order, from the flight of the Queen of Spain and the offer of the crown to Prince Leopold down to the capitulation of bedan. Ihese will in time be a great boon to the youthful student of history, for every scene has its illustration from the garden interview at Elms to Bismarck in bed receiving the news of the Emperor s surrender. Even the his torical two chairs have their portraits. The venerable Klaclacraaatsclt, of course, has in a grave way his illustrated jokes about the war. The unlucky complimentary speech of the Bavarian to the Crown Prince about beat ing those confounded Prussians in 1800 fur. nishes one. Another is a scene in Nancy where a landwehr-man asks across a counter for a groschen's worth of their "famous irencnelan, to wnicn tne shopkeeper re plies that they have been long out of the article; but the most comical are the illustrations to a skit npon the geography and imagination of the French war correspond ents. There is a grotesque view of the bombardmens of Potsdam by the French - iron-clad fleet, and another still more spirited of the storming by Zouaves ot the fortress of Buckow, which, by the way, is described as a mountain strong hold on the Swiss frontier, and the key of Pomerania and Bavaria. Two of the Punch cartoons, especially the duel scene, seom to rival the native article in popularity, and another adaptation from abroad is the famous comio French map of Earope, which came out at the beginning of the war, and which has been modified to suit German views; the bloated landwehr- man grasping Holland and South Germany being changed into a comely but determined young Prusbian, wholly intent upon driving tus antagonist tne Zouave into a corner. This, perhaps, may. be a kind of pictorial manifesto in answer to certain Belgian cari catures attributing sinister designs to Prussia, such as the "Gateau Bolge," where a Prus sian and a Frenchman are represented cutting into a mighty cake, out of which steps a Bel gian rifleman with fixed bayonet, while a British soldier and sailor back him np, the latter showing that formidable rope's end which appears to have now become the recog nized symbol of naval force. LIGIITXIXG AT. SEA t The HuibIbk of the Bark A. B. Wyman A Carco of C.tt.n Met n Fire br aa Klectrlc Hpark Abandoned In Mid-Ocean. The Belgian shin Charles, Captain La Chere, ar rived here from Antwerp yesterday. Captain La Chere brought Captain Wyinan and fourteen seamen or tne oara a.u. wyman, aoanaonea at sea, on Are, December 8. The bark Wyman, owned by Enoch Benner, of Boston, sailed from Savannah for Liverpool on the 26th of November wltn Mao bales of cotton. On the 7th of December, while in a squall. In lati- tude aii-, longitude 61-41, she was struck by light ning. The electric spars set lire to tue ootton in the hold in three different places, immediately on ais- covering this, the captain had all the hatches closed and battened down, and set the men to work to sub due the fire. The crew, alter working nearly twenty. four hours, found It impossible to check the dames. the vessel being on tire lore and aft. At 7 '30 out lie morning of the 8th the shin Charles hove in sight, and a small boat from the Y yman put off to her. When Captain La Chere first saw the Wyman she was about six miles distant., nying signals of dis tress fore and alt. lie promptly hove to, and went on board the burning ship. When he boarded her the top royal mast had gone, tne sides of the vessel were hot, the smoke escaping through the seams. He tried the pump of the water-tank and the main pumps, and found the water in the tank, which con tained nearly lO.ooo gallons, nearly boiling. He made as close an examination of the tire as circuuv stances would permit, and then told Captain Wyman that he thought mere was not tne slightest possi bility of saving his vessel, that she was on . Ore fore and aft, and liable from the nature of. her cargo to burst open at any moment. Captain La Chere sood by the burning bark until SoX'loek in the alternaon, when he aud his crew. taking nomine out ineir cunning ami two satis, abandoned the vessel aud went on board . the Charles. . - ... ' Before leaving his ship Captain Wyman opened the main hatch, uud the Haines aud smoke, which up to this time had been ooutined to the hold, burst forth lore and alt, and In leiB than tea mlautes the ship was a mass of Tlame from atem to stern. The fore mast toppled over about fifteen minutes after they bad abandoned the ship. At 4 o'clock the breeze freshened and a heavy gale sprang up, and at 4'10 the burning vessel was lost to sight. captain v ymun took a train yesterday for Boston j t confer with the owners of t fffi JfiiWo.
