War.
Bucharest Cor. Philaddypkiia Tines.
A camp of Russians is as motloy
and picturesque an assembly of men
and beasts ap was ever soon. Any
American who had experience in the
robollion would say at once that the
Russians look like Confederate sols
diers, and no more descriptive paral
lel could be presented to the Ameri
can public than to compare in gen
oral appearance a camp on the
Dimboritza to a Confederato camp
on the Rappahannock during
the rebellion. The infantry bivouac
about their stacked arms, spreading
the contents of their knapsacks oi
the ground and hanging their gar
monts on the bayonets to dry and
air. Groat coats 6f coarse gray
stun' propped up on two or three
sticks serve as a tout for two sol
diors, who make their bed of a sec-,
ond coat aid coo k their coffee over a
little fire of twigs before their rude
tent. Their loose uniforms of white
cotton become earth colored after a
march, and look shabby and unmili
'tary, and a battalion falling
in for rations has anything but a
soldierly appearance. Examine the
dark faces, doubly dark in .contrast
with the light color of the uniforms,
.andi you will find that there is an
unmistakable intelligence in the
rank and file, that they are slow to
think and act and have not a super
abundance of energy, but have good
powers of endurance and are accus
tomed to obey. They have not the
individuality of the soldiers of .some
of the other great military nations,
nor the self-assertion of the Ameri
can, but their general appearance is
not unattractive. The oficers are,
as a class, fine-looking, intelligent
men, without much fire in their
composition, but with a certain dig
nity of carriage that proves a habit
of commanding. They have sym --
pathetic dispositions, as a rule, and
make friends wherever they go.
The majority of them, of course,
speak nothing but Russian, but often
one may hear among them pure
English, French, or German
spoken, with the fluency of a native.
THE COSSACKS.
The Cossacks tio their horses to
a double line of ropes, and appear
to bivouac by the sides of the ani
mals, so compact is the arrangement
of their camp, and the field artillery
park their guns with great care at
the end of each day's march. The
Cossack is a conundrum. He is
sometimes mounted on a scrawny
beast of a horse, and sometimes is
seen on a showy animal that has
more style than his rider. Perched
up on a saddle that is made of a
wooden tree, with a great cushion on
top that may be removed at willl,
and a pommel at least eight inches
high, it is sometimes difficult to tell
the rough. looking fellow from a
native farm hand. Hie always
seems, however, to be going some,
whore, both his horse and himself
having a business air about them, and
a conipleto disregard of anybody or
anything. A Cossack will sleep in
the middle of the road or across the
sidewalk wvith as much freedom as
in his own tent-if he ever had a
tent. He sleeps anywhere and at
any time, and seems to like it,
There is a corps of six hundred of
these follows, it is said, who are se
lected as scouts because they are
uncommonly quick to see and hear.
Their activity in other respects no
one can doubt. A battalion of Cos..
sacks hats no0 frills about it-.to in
dulge in slang a little ; it is all for
service and has all seen service;
Dust-colored uniforms, wiry horses,
bright, active nien, there does not
seem to be an ounce of superfluous
baggageoor an extra button. It is a
gypsy.-looking erowd, but it does
one good to see thorn scampor past,
THE cOMMIssARY.
Next to these the most original
thing is the supply train. IL is
composed of various kinds of
wagons, all much after the same
pattern as regards the heavy wheels
and frame, but varying from a wicker
body to a box or to a tray like a
alf hogshed. Few of the wagons|
are much larger than .a half hogs
head, eithor, and none of thorn hoa
vior than a small express wagon.
They have no springs and no cove,
except a loose tarp>aulin or a bundle
of old canvas. 'Theso small, bony
beasts, which would be called ponies
anywhere else, trot along with the
carts as nimbly as cats, while a few
bags of grain, with a driver asleep
on the top, is perhaps the only load.
Of course it takes four times the
number of wagons to make a Rus
sian supply train that it does to
make an American train carrying the
same weight. But the active little po
nies are as enduring as mules, and a
train moves with great rapidity. It
looks, however, like a caravan of
gypsies, and, when at camp, like a
bivouac of the sumo wanderers, for
the drivers sleep anywhere they find
the softest bed, picket their horses
without any order and use the great
wooden bow, that spans the neck
of the middle horse, for a crane over
the camp-lire.
TIIE AhIInY 1 QUARTERS.
The Russian officers in general
are stout, good-natured fellows,
with practical and common sense
notions no doubt, but have little
energy in their composition. They
have brought along enough baggage
for a bridal tour, and are allowed a
number of attendants that will
increase the corps of non-combat'
ants in the army to an astonishing
size. The hotels are full of them, all
in white linen coats and caps, tight
trousers and top boots. An occa,
sional Circassian, with rows of silver
cartridge cases on each breast, a
belt full of pistols and knivos, a
,long sword with straight handle and
a pair of tall boots half hidden by
the skirts of his long coat, strolls
about in 7a dignified way. How he
will endure the great heat with his
heavy fur cap no one can tell. in
fact, it is sure that the heat will be
one of the greatest enemies the in
vaders will have to fight. It is now
over eighty in the shade and grow
ing hotter every day. The valley
of the low Danube, with the great
meadows and stagnant pools, is as
dangerous to the foreigner as the
campaign of Rome, and the heavy
limbod Russians, with their tem
perament and constitution, are little
fitted for the long marches in the
scorching sun of the plains. It
must be said in their favor that they
are a remarkably intelligent looking
body of men, so far as I have seon
them. The sanitary corps seems to
be well organized and very large,
The red crosses abound at every
camp and the doctors circulate in
great numbers on the railways.
THE ARMY OF REPORTERS.
The most serious preparations
that are visible hero now are those
of the correspondents, notable
those of the London Times and
London News, who have finely fitted
up field wagons with all the para
phernalia for a long journey, with
servants, couriers, draught and sad,
die horses. Of course only those
correspondents who are received at
headquarters make any preparations
to accompany the army. And it is
not an easy matter to get recogniz
ed as a correspondent. First, there
must be a certificate from the Rus
sian Minister from the capital of
the congtry whence you come.
Then this must be approved by the
director of the correspondents, an
official appointed for this purpose,
and lastly, when all is in order, you
must present two photograph's to
the authorities and also one to be
endorsed and stamped by thorn.
This last is to be carried on the
person as a sure mpeans of identifica
tion, and when the photograph is
returned, stamped and endorsed, to
the correspondent, ho receives as
wvell as a brass oval plate, about
eight inches long, marked with the
word "correspondent" in Russian, a
number and a red seal, to be worn
on the left arm. Once the badge is
received the correspondent is al
lowed to circulate anywhere he
chooscs. Hie is, however, said to be
held personally responsible for what.
over ho sends. It is generally con.,
sidored that this is the most reasona
able recognition of the rights of
newspaper correspondents that
could be devised.
