Hegim on tho 15th July, 1870, hy n (Icelarallon on tho part of France, anil ended by tlio treaty of Versailles on tho 2d March, 1871, It lasted 23D days, During this brief spacoof tlmo twenty- five, pitched battles wero fought, nnd between thirty and forty engagements of Itsi consHiueiice. Twotity.two sieges wero conducted siuccrssfully, threo of them (I'.trls, Jletz nml Strasbourg,) being of tho llrst rank, llotlt combat ants brought into tho field, from first to last, about 700,000 men each. At Grave lotto nearly half n million of men con fronted encli other, viz: 70,000 Germans against 210,000 Krcnehmon. At Sedan there wore2IO,0(i) Germans against 150,- 000 French. And In tho early battles thedl-'pi'optirtlon wasHlmllar ; butnftcr tho capture of Hazalno'H army tho de moralization of tho French soldiers became so evident that thn Germans did not hesltatoto attack with Inferior num bers. Tims, In tho third battle of Or leans, 1211,000 Germans fought 200,000 French ; niul, at Ilelfort, 110,000 Pruss ians ntid H.idencrs confronted tlio whole of h.itirb.iki's army, nearly 120,000 strong. Tills war lias shown thu enormous ad vantages which proper training confers. Tlio German War Minister, Von Itoon, and the chief of stair, Von Moltke, at tended lo all thu iiiiuutliu of detail. They not merely planned tliu whole strategy, but tiulc care that everything which was nceccss.iry to its successful execution should bo donu at thu right moment. In nut ono Instance) wero tho operations of tlio different corps Unpo lled by want of supplies or by tho non- nrriv.il of reiufoicements j there- wero no shortcomings in tho commissariat, no marching barefooted, nor perishing from lack of shelter or tiicjillc.il atten tion. Kvery company, and In sonio eas.es every man, wis provided with a map of tliu di'ltlct lie was to march through, nml those men who wero tic iiualukd with any locality wero em ployed In il. Thu scouting was carried out with the most extraordinary bold iicus uml success, and the Prussians could obtain information from tho Interior of Paris up to thu hist moment of the siege, It is painful to contrast all this with the miserable Ineftlclency of thu French generals and. stair; but tho remit will doubtless lio that tho French army will bo entirely remodelled. It is curious now to read by the light of history tlio falsification of tlio pre dictions of tho advocates for tho fortill cation of Paris in 1811. Thiers himself included. Tlio Select Committee np pointud by thu French Government of that day to examine Into tho subject of tho fortification of tlio city, reported that "so far from drawing on Paris the horrors of a siege, tho forts would make the city so .secure that it nover would bo besieged. A population of 1,1100,1100 could bo provisioned for sixty days, but no enemy could live nlxty days beforo Paris.or lie and not the garriton would be iltiri-cil. To besicgo Paris tilono he must tiring 2.'i0,000 men. These could not bu supported by htores, and lo keep a long llnu of communications would res mint other armies. To live upon the urrounding e ountry would entail a dis peri-Ion of forces. A sixty days' slego of Paris was therefore beyond the limits likelihood." Mr. Tillers Is now a wiser and unhappily a sadder man. Jt was he who, thirty years ago, projected tho fortification-, mid he lias lived to witne-s tlio misery they hnvo failed to avert. Hut, nflcr all, thu military aspects of tho war aro the least important features of tlio great convulsion. In Franco an hnplro lias been extinguished, one rovisional Government dissolved, and .mother Installed. In Germany an Kin- plrolias been established and all tho minor States have been consolidated into ono vast concrete, tit tho sacrifice, however of principle upon which tho ultimate1 progress of :lio human race mii-t re-t ; and both nations have yet tu master thoseieaeaof sjlf government. Hut more than oven tli s is tlio entire revolution which the s.iccess of Prussia has ellccted in tlie ji illtical n'pect and tho diplomacy of I.urope. me ii.uaiico oi power is more) man over unsettled, nu I half tlio nations on tho continent are) asking themselves how much longer they will bo allowed to exist.

I find no such power, nor do I believe that nny such power ought to exist. 1 do not believe It con slstent with tho wolfnro of the country; do not bcltcvo it to bo consistent with tlio liberties of tho country that tho subject of education should bo taken chargo of by tho Congress of tho Uni ted States. It properly belongs to tlio States nnd to tho peoplo of tho States; audit would bo, In my.Jiitlgment, tlio worst posslblo policy, tho most danger ous policy, for Congress to ussutuo Juris diction over that subject. The only power granted to Congress in tho Con stitution upon tliu subject of science is tills: The Congress shall have power to promolo tliu progress of science uml useful arts How? b.v securinc for limited times lo authors and inventors tho exclusive rlirht to their respective writings and discover ies. Them is all thu piwer you h.wo over thu subject. It Is not it power In gen- oral terms to promote tliu progress of sclenco niul useful arts ; but it is a pow er to promote it In one particular way, and ono particular way alone. So that there is not only tho absence of any ox. press power to take tho subject of edu cation tinder your control, hut there Is that negative-pregnant, ns lawyers call It, arising from tho fact that you aro specially authorized to tlo ono .thing, which Implies that you aro not author ized to do uny oilier. I know very well tint tho law oslnh llshing this Huic.ui of Education is n mere euterlug-wedjte. Wo hnvo propo Hitlons to havu departments upon nl most every subject; n department on this subject and that subject, and other subjects, multiplying departments and multiplying olllclals almost without limit. Somo of the-o mliiht bo verv well, perhaps; but when you comu to a department of education, which as sullies that Congress is to take the edu cation of tliu peoplo in itts charge, then 1 desire to enter my protest at tho very outset, that you hnvo no power to do any such thing ; and therefore I want to say that, so far ns my feeble eirorts can avail for tho purpose, I shall oppose extending tlio provisions of this law now and hereafter ono single iota. Thnt thu law may stand simply to enablo us to collect statistics ; but so far as under taking the education of tlio American peoplo Is concerned, I dony tho powd er Congress over the subject, and shall oppose it whenever it Is proposed. It Is not my purpose to say anything In detail about tho report of the commis sioners, which has been drawn Into this discussion. I hnvo an impression, from looking at it, that there is not ono valuablo thing in it that is not in print. A report that simply copies by tlio page tlio report of superintendents of the common schools or the commissioners of common schools lu the States, that simply picks them out and puts them litre ln.tlio form of a report, and make-. nooit in that way, with scissors and paste, Is not it very creditable produc tion for tlio chief education officers of tho United States of America. I do not think this book Is ono that a learned anil Intelligent American In Ku renin would hand to any Kuroncan as a sno- clmen of tho education, tho learning :inil tho literature of America.

There is tlio soundest common sense in tho following paragraph from tho Mamyaeiurcr ami Jiuilder : Why Is it that there Is such a repug nance on tlio part of parents lo puttlnj their sons to a trade. A skilled me chanic Is an indeiiendunt man. Go where lie will his craft will bring him support. lie need nsk favors uf none Ho has literally his fortune in his own hands. Yet foolish parents ambitious that their sous should " rise in tlio world," ns they say are more willing that they should study for a profession, with thu chane 's for uvuu n moderato success heavily against tlicni, or run thu risk of upending their manhood In tliulguoblu task of retailing dry goods, or, of tolling at tho accountant's desk, than learn a t radii which would bring them manly strength, health nnd inde pendence. In point nffact, tho metliod they choo-o is tliu onu least likely to nchiuvu tho advancement ulmetl nt, for tliu supply or candidates for "errand boys, ' dry goods clerks, and kindred occupations, Is notoriously overstocked whllo, on thu other hand, thu demand lor really skilled mechanics of overv description is as notoriously beyond tho supply, lite crying need of this coun try to day is for skilled labor; and that lamer who neglects to provide his son witli a useful tradu, and lo seo that ho thoroughly masters It, does him it grlev ous wrong, nnd runs tlio risk of helping uy so mucii to incroaso the stock of idlo nnd dependent, if not vicious, mem- hers or society. It Is stated In tho re port of thu Prison Association, lately Issued, that of fourteen thousand flvo huudrod and ninety-six prisoners con tinue! in tho thirty States in 1807, seventy-seven per cent, or over ten thousand of tlio number had nover learned n trade. Tlio fact conveys a lesson of profound Interest to thoso who hnvo in chargo tho training of boys, and girls, too, for tho active duties of life, When llornco Greeley traveled In Ku- ropo ho was Impressed with tlio vnluoof ilralnngo, nnd immediately got nu mill, thetlcnl ngrlculturitl proverb to thu ef. feet that Ifa umn don't drain his farm, his farm would drain him.

The effects of emigration on Germa ny an I tho United States was tlio themo of n lecture recently delivered in Ber lin by Carl Kapp. A profouud and wido spread impression has been pro duced by tho facts nnd deductions pre sented by thospeakor. In exhibiting tho immense losses of Germany by Uio emigration of such largo numbers of hor Inhabitants, nnd in alluding to tho fact, that up to this tlmo Germany had proved her vital force moro by eduring ovils than by tho positive performance of salutary deeds, ho deeply moved his auditory. It was especially tho calci:- littlon of tho benefits which this coun try derived from tho inllux of the hun dreds of thousands of Germans, who had como hero after having been brought up and educated in Germany, at tlio expense of tho old Fatherland, and who now spend not only their en ergy but oven very considerable means which thoy took with them for thu benefit of tho now fatherland. Ho moreover, told the Bcrllners that tho emigration to tho United States always Increased whenever uiiti-liberal move ments wero enforced by tho German governments, and ho forwarned them not to permit tho sway of any illiberal policy nfter their great achievements during tho present war, because tills would infallibly bo followed by nu In- crcaso or tho emigration, and coime- eiuently largo lossos to their national wealth. Age. A SlXUUI.AU ItF-LATlONSlIIl'.- A friend who married n widow, explains ns follows, how lie got mixed up in re lationship : " 1 married a widow who had a grown up daughter. My fattier visited our house very often, fell lu lovo with my step-daughter and mar ried her. So my father became my son-in-law and my step-daughter, my mother, becausu slio was my father's wife. Sometlmo ttftorwnrds my wlfu huil a son he was my father's brother-in-law, and my uncle, for ho was thu brother of ray step-mother. My father's wife, that was my step-daughter had also a son ; ho was of courso my brother, and In tho mcantltno my grandchild, for ho wies tho son or my daughter. My wife was my grandmother, becausu she wns my wife's mother. I was my wife's husband and grandchild ut tho samo time. And as tho husband of n person's graudmother is his grand father, I was my own grandfather." Tho testimony of n daughter of tho pnrtios to a recent Indiana divorce tult seems conclusive: "Father got mnd bo- cause mother starched his stocking. Mother plckod up tho stockings and hit father on tlio head with them, nnd It sounded as though they were sticks of wood. Futhor then stuffed i hot wheat cuko down mother's thront, nnd then mother sot tho dog on father, and twist cd tho dog's tall to make him bltu harder," That tho virtuous person, or ho who performs his duty by obeying tho will of God, enjoys much happiness, and thnt the vicious person, or ho who livew In tho habitual violation or tho law in tlmated to him by reason of conscience, is Btibject to much Infelicity, nro truths so obvious thnt they havu not escaped observation in any iigo.
