APRIL /MAGAZINES. Ilarper's . Magazine for April is CO most amusing and , the most prodigally embellished nuniber we have had for a long time. Among the illustrations, repeated from German source, to Mr. Conant's article on BiSmarck, we observe two finely-executed heeds of the Count, one representing him as the stout hart/aroma and desperate smoker of 184 7,and the second shay ing with unfortunate plainness his present addiction to fortified drinks. We Will extract from this paper : ntsmAncles EARLY ACCOUNT OF HIMSELF • Even before entering at Gottingen he had fought his first duel. His opponent was a ,brave lad named Wolf. Both were rather un scientific in the use of weapons, and Bismarck retired from the contest with a wounded leg, while his antagonist only lost his spectacles. At Gottingen be led a wild and dissipated life. For some aggravated offence he was one day cited to the presence of the Dean. With a careless bravado very characteristic of him he appeared before that awful functionary wear ing a tall bat, a gay dressing-gown, with riding boots that reached above his knees, and ac eoMpanied by an enormous blood-hound. Startled half out of his senses by this unex =d apparition, the poor Dean sought refuge l e nd a chair, and only left his biding-place after the audacious student had sent the dog out of the room. On leaving the Dean, who had fined him for laving the dog in his possession, young Bis marck encountered a party of four students be longing to the Hanoverian Corps, who amused_ themselves by making sarcastic remarks on his extraordinary costume. High words ensued, followed by a challenge from each of the foar Hanoverians. During the first three terms of his-niversity lite.he fought over twenty duels, and was wounded in one instance only, and that by the breaking of his adversary's sword blade. The scar is still visible on his cheek. After an animated dispute on the subject, this "blood." to his opponent's great annoyance, was held not to be good," as it was drawn by accident: According to his own account, Bismarck led a wild and reckless life at Gottingen. He only twice attended lectures before he passed his examination. After leaving the University he was employed as a subordinate fnnctionary in. various government offices ; tint, growing weary of this dull routine, soon retired to his own estates at Kniephof,.which lie successfully tried to relieve from the embarrassed condition mismanagement ItiSMAIICK NOW. In private life he is one of the most pleasant of men, genial, witty, and inclined to social familiarity. Ills conversation is sparkling,and few men tell an anecdote with better ffect. His fondness for female society has given rise to several piquant stories at his, expense; and so ranch scandal was Occasioned recently by a photograph, in which he and a noted female singer were represented together, that he felt compelled to explain the circumstance in a let ter which was published in the German news papers. But since the days of his youthful - tales, when he was known as " Mad Bis marck," his private life has been without re proach. As a statesman his career is open to the severest criticism. Arbitrary, self willed, imperious, impatient of opposition, and unscrupulous in the use of means to attain his ends, he governs with the strong hand of absolute power, and crushes out every attempt to assert the political freedom of the individual or the masses. His political ideas are those of a born feudalist. Connected by faMily, by tradition, by education, and by early piepossessions, with the aristocracy of Prussia, he has never sympathized with modern ideas of, popular rights. To him they appear monstrous and subversive of law and order. He believes firmly in the absolute right of the king to rule 'alone, and regards every check upon the royal will as an infringement of di vine prerogatives and a step towards social • anarchy. This explains his contemptuous and arbitrary treatment of the representatives of the people in the Prussian Chambers, - and his arrogant assumption of the right to' carry out his royal master's policy without their consent and in face of their opposition. Mr. Curtis, in the Easy Chair,pays a tribute, tender, but perhaps a little too personally lov ing for the place, to • WESLEY HARPER. He was so truly modest, he avoided pub licity so unostentatiously, that the Easy Chair Almost !eels as if it were doing wrong to men tion him here with praise; so hard is it to be lieve that his eyes will not rest upon these lines with entire old kind appreciation. But It is a sermon or a poem that none of us can spare, the life of a man who in very great prosperity kept not only the true heart of a child, but the humble heart that owned no inferior. We are judged usually by our public successes; by the esteem of distinguished persons. But the real test of character is the feeling of those before whom we play no part. What does the nurse in the nursery think of us, or the porter in the store, or the butcher-boy ? If a man's children confide in him—if all. whom he employs at home in'his business feel that he is full of thought and sympathy for them as for breth ren—if those who meet him perceive the charm of his urbanity, and as they draw nearer and know him better, honor and love him more and,More, we may be very sure that he has the noblest human qualities, whose influence will • be a possession to us forever. Such was the friend whom for so many sears in its little labors upon these pages the Easy Chair has constantly seen, and whom it will now see no more; and• as it meditates, not sally, but with the sober cheerfulness which his own serene faith in the divine order could not but inspire, upon that good life now peacefully ended, it fuels how truly Wesley Harper will always be remembered by those 'who knew him well, as among "The wise who soar but never roam, True to the kindred points of heaven and home." The article on Frederick the Great gets tha hero well upon his throne and into his send mental connection with Voltaire; the follow ing is said of the royal • HABITS OF FEEDKRICK. • Frederick, a crown prince, had been quite methodical in the distribution of his time, and bad cultivated rigid habits of industry. Now, fully conscious of the immense duties and caret which would devolve upon him as King, he entered into a very systematic arrangement of the employments of each hour, to which be rigidly adhered during nearly the whole of his mien of forty-six years. He ordered his ser vants to wake him at four o'clock every morn ing. Being naturally inclined to sleep, he found it hard to shake off his lethargy. The attendants were, therefore, directed every morning to place upon his forehead a towel dipped in cold water. He thus continued to rise at four o'clock, summer and winter, until an advanced age. A single servant lit his fire, shaved him and dressed his hair. lie alwaYs wore the uniform of his guards, and allowed only fifteen minutes for his morning toilet. Ile did not indulge in :the luxtify of slippers or dressing-gown, though occasionally, when ill, be put on a sort of linen wrapper, but even then he wore his military Wow: Only on one day in the year did he ap pear il► silk stockings, and that was on the birthday of his neglected wife, when he form ally called upon her with his congratulations. • The ordinary routine of the day, when not absent on travels or campaigns, was as fol , lows: As . Awn, as dressed, one ()Ibis pages THE DAILY EVENING. BULLETIN----PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY,; MARCH 22, 1870. brought the packet of : letters. The -number: was usually, very large. He employed hiinself in reading these letters till eight. &dock, By a partiCular style of folding he designated those to which no reply was to be-returned, those to which there was to be an immediate reply, and those which required' further consideration. At eight o'clock one of the four secretaries of the cabinet entered, took the three parcels, • and,while the king was breakfasting, received from him very briefly the character of the re sponse to be made. At nine o'clock Frederick received one of the general officers, and' ar ranged with him all the military affairs of the day, usually dismissing him loaded with business. At ten o'clock he reviewed some one of the regi auents • and then, after attentling parade, devoted himself to literary pursuiLsor private correspondence until dinner-time. This was the 'portion of the day he usually appropriated to authorship. He was accustomed to com pose, both in prose and verse, while slowly traversing the graveled walks of his garden. He was particularly fond of dogs'of the grace ful greyhound breed, and might often be seen with book and pencil in hishand, in the shady walks, with three or four Italian greyhounds gamboling around him, apparently entirely absorbed In deep meditation. A page usually followed at a short distance behind, to attend his call. At twelve o'clock he dined with in vited guests. As quite a number of distin guished men always met at his table, and the king was very fond of good' living, as well as of the "feast of reason and the flow of soul," the repast was frequently prolOnged until nearly three o'clock. At dinner he-was very social, priding himself not a little upon hiS conversa tional powers. The poetry is uninteresting, except tor the fact that, the publishers throw themselves, by printing an explanatory title over some verses by Major Sigourney, against Mr.- Watson and in favor of the Major, in the dispute about the authorship of " Beautiful Snow." In the book reviews we notice a warm and appreciative no -E' tice of Lippincott's new Biographical Dic tionary ; this is a chance of base since the days when that publisher and the Harpers were both publishing Gazetteers, and when the Har pers did their best to fasten petty errors on the *ork'to well done for Messrs. Lippincott • by Dr.-Thomas. The complete list of con tents and authors, for April, runs as follows : "The War in Paraguay," by Gen. M. T. Mc- Mahon, with fourteen illustrations • " Lost Days ;" " Count Otto Von Bismarck,"i S. S. Conant, with nine illustrations; "Among the verms an 1 Velvet Looms." 0. M. Spencer, with twenty-one illustrations ; " Beautiful Child," W. A. 11. 'Sigourney ; "Frederick the Great—V. The Death of Frederick William, and the Ascension of Frederick the Second," with five illustrations ; "Around the World on Skates," T. B. Thorpe, with one illustration ; "Linda's Young Lady," D. R. Casfieton ; "Together," Carl .Spencer;-" A Brave Lady" (Concluded), by the author of "John Halifax, Gentleman," with two illustrations • "Revealed in a Song," Justin McCarthy; "The Indian; What We Should do with Him," Col. George Ward Nichols ; "Bathsheba Carew's Curse," Jane G. Austin ; " The Great. Gold Conspi racy," John Bonner; " Anteros," by the au thor of " Guy Livingstone"; "Border Remi niscences," Gen. R. B. Marcy; Easy 'Chair, Literary Record, Scientific Record, Historical Record, and Drawer. We receive copies from Turner Bros. & Co. and T. B. Peterson & Bros. Old and New may now be judged from its tour numbers. It has always been a little too vivacious, too desperately smart and versatile, and has had far too much to say. The numer ous fictions in the April number are cheap enough in quality, and seem to be condescend ingly and coritemptimusly dredged over the medicinal articles like sugar over a pillbox.. The magazine is one that reads best backward, there being always pith in " The Examiner" and "Record of Progress." The most apropos paper we find this month is one on "Art Mu seums inAmerica," yet even that is not extra ordinary in wisdom ; it gives prominence to a present need, yet who could not: pen off such matter by the furlong ? A paper by 0. Howes, Jr., on Seal Fishery in Alaska, is the best chapter of practical information that Old and New has yet had. Dr. Bellows is speculative and dreamy, over "Man and Mankind," and there is a severe, biting article on " Funeral Follies," and Lucre tia P. Bale has a really good story called "Felieie Mordaunt's World," and to . these advantages the number may add the fact that Mr. Bale's own story, "Ten Times One is, Ten," is pressed out until next month. But all that does not make this hard-working magazine a hit. A little more experience will doubtless enable the talented editor, it be can hold on, to weed and plant his parterre into excellence.— Publishers; 31.0.

MANAYUNK, March 21, 1870.—Mr. Editor -Sin: In looking over some of "the"back numbers of your paper, I saw an account of a belt in an Ottawa (Ill.) factory, which trans mits electric sparks to, or draws them from a hand when held within a few Inches of it. • This phenomenon may be new to IllinoisanS, 'but it is not to Philadelphia factory operatives, as nearly every little boy in a Mauayunk mill can tell you. There is hardly a mill in the town that has not its " electric belt ;" and If you will bold what is known in cotton mills as a hand card near the belt, you will experience a sensation that will make you glad to let go. . In the machine-shop of the Bridesburg Ar senal, during the late war, they,had a belt with which the workmen often used to light gas— i. e., get a piece of copper wire of sufficient length to reach the different burners; then one man would hold the wire near the belt, while another would go around the room with the other end of the wire, applying it to the gas as he turned it on. It may seem too late to reply to your note, published February 6th, but I thought I would let you know that it was no new thing in Mauayunk factories. I would have replied sooner, but, Spaniards, Alaskans, and Manayunkers don't - often see the evening papers. FACTORY-BOY. P. S.

Lippincott & Co. have received from two Japanese houses extensive orders for miscellaneous books, and as an illustration of the reputation borne by the large American houses in that country, each order was accom panied by highly flattering letters, referring to the reputation of the house for honorable deal ing, and expressing a desire to continue the business relations thus commenced. A draft was inclosed In each order.

The exhibition is but a small Oak , the general effect of theinterior is pretty, and with many inferior works of art there are some things which - are worth atten tion. Some paintings by modern artists, in mercy to theni, ought to have been excluded ; whilst some of the olden time, by Murillo, and of the Peruginesca school, are delicious. There are splendid books from Germany and else where, and glass and works of embroidered silk from Paris, Lyons and Germany which would drive our Ritualists mad. By the by, great complaints have been made by the _French contributors that their property has suffered much en voyage; one man asserting that objects in glass belonging to him, of the valim of 5,000 francs, had been entirely 'smashed. The damage is attributed to the hostility of the Revolutionists. • —The sight' of an Anaerican work of art as a star contribution, In one of the great sales at the llotel Drouot is about as rare a,s . the sight of a new planet in the solar system.

Tou Its, March 21.—The High Court of Justice was organized this morning, the court room being crowded. Among the conspicuous persons present were Madame Noir,mother,and Louis N oir, brother of Victor. At half-past ten the jury were called, and lots were drawn at noon.

The utmost stillness prevailed, and the, scene 'was most solemn. Gretlier read the accusa tion. The Prince waived the reciting of his rank - und titles. The usual interrogations were addressed to the accused, who replied with great self-possession. The articles tending to prove the criminality were laid on the table be fore the prisoner. They consisted of a pistol, cane, hat, and two cards. The president of the court delivered an eloquent address to the jury. The advocate for the "partie - civile" de manded that the court require the presence of. Rochefort, and the president replied that he would give the necessary orders. The first witness examined was Boisteau, commissary of police, who testified to taking ' the deposition of the Prince immediately after the shooting.
