THE FRENCH AND GEMMA* ARMIES A. German Comparison. The reports hitherto published concerning the vast armies sent into the field by. the two contending powers have b ?en mostly confined io a comparison of figures ab to their numeri? cal strength. The following- extracts from a s?nee. of'lett era published in the Gazette of Cologne by Julius von Wickede, one of the best military writers ia Europe, enter more fully into the details af organization, equipment, ard armament of the two armies: ~ We commence with the infantry as the most important branch of an army. ? The equipment of the French, ioirodneed for the campaigns in Algeria, and ltalv, is very light and e spca ally calculated fox field service io a warm climate or during a sommer campaign, so that the Germans, with, tbair tight, heavy coats, will be under a disadvantage, unless they leave tHeireoste at home or on the baggaee teams, and fight either in blouses or in shirt-sleeves. The overcoat, need for.protection against the rain and cold nights, ia the e&mein the French as ID the German army. The military cap of the French, while undoubtedly. lighter and ? Store oomrortabe than the German helmet, does-not afford equal protection against rain and wind, andi against the sabre-cuts of the ci valry; - A a regards ? tcav armament, : there 5 ia nowboj. little doubt that although the chusae pc-t maj-be aayeriui at longTttngB when caxe ttrVhxndled, it beare no -comparison with th? E ee die gun in a general engagement, at snorter distance.. In f*ct it is generally conceded that the'Frussiana have bad out-and-out. the best of it m abootiEir s o far. The French are gen? eran? bsd marksmen: they.btxdly. knowhow iCL^*ke; good na,and appear lo take' partido* - lar pleasure in wasting ammunition. They ad? Tahoe rapidly upon : the enemy, Ure into the airto.no purpose whatever, and when sidnoant-v ly heat may be ea ally routed by a well directed firetroma sirictly dlwnpluKxi enemy, especial? ly ? when followed by a finn charge of the bayo? net/- -TheCbaasearE-?- pied fomi decidedly the,1 best put of the French infantry, and are de? cidedly preferable in any serious : engagement and in open battle to the mn ch-vaunter Lan . oars an 11 orcos. The f JUT light infantry rern m eui s of the Imperial Guard, and the twenty ' battalions Chasse ara-a-pied constitute the flower of the French infantry, but even they cannot, p?mpete WU h the German Chasseurs and Fundiera in rapidrty andacenracy orflriDp. Tho rmtraillfcur, of which we have heard so much Isiely, ia found t^ be of but li.tlo practi? cal'nae-rn'th? fleU, and it is already rumored that the French will renonnce it before the campaiatuis over. Ita transponation across the ?raniry is difficult, ai d it is not easily brought! into position. .Wherever it can ba made available, .a hght rifled piece of artillery: does muob better service;;- - ? ^ Tbe,French infantry are .generally good Ekitmiahera,' especially the veterans wno havel served in Algeria. They likewise excel in the' rapid boilding-up of camps, stinting of tents, and their peculiar adaptation to camp life. But on the field ot hattie they lack precision in ali_ mivemauta in c'.oHfcd columnH, and? although apparer.'ly swift in motion, they^re in all -1 heir evo lu ti ons decidedly in fen or to their German atagoni?te. The out-post service iaISnt imperfeoUy and neaUgently attended to, and French infantry can he but very little relied upon in all night attacks. The French artuleri' form?, beyond all doubt, tho beat disciplined branch of ibe army. The officers are almost without exception men of theoretical knowledge and of fair practical experience, while the rank and file are com? posed cf robo?t, p oked men. The brave and' skilled ?kroan artillerists will find them to be J worthy. an?agoniBta, with whom it will be an honor and a delight to vie in skill and Oaring I on the battle-field. France bas undoubtedly j brought Into action a adavy force of artillery,: and.it is moro I bao probable that fully two-' thirds of the entire contmgop* of the regular army; ,1.157. batteries with 942 field-Dieces). ls, bew^'thundering forth against the Pr neala n: fanes.' ' Tb>'French.have nearly all rifled eau- ' non?, made after the model ' invented by La H?te. ..The breech-ioading system' bas not be^rtjnteocjaoed into the French artillery; they vmitattw?rtdj La Hille1? finir and twelve v rxihnd mmode-loaders. Ex pen euee will chow * w&lber these cana will bear comparison with J Ibe German rifled oteech-loaders. A material' drawback to the movements of the French tmBBaj is me'inreriorityandtosutT?rieGttxaiu ing .-of ib?ir bones;. they.' are. strong, but j eleabsyand alow."

No corporal or sergeant can everattaiu that rank, unless ii be by particularly distinguishing himself on the field of battle. The B taff of the anas/ of the North German Confederation is formed ont of the ?lite ot its corps of officers, and may safely be placed above any other general army staff in tbe world. Tbe head and sonl of it is the renown? ed veteran General, Baron von Mortke, whose 'eminent services during the campaign of 1866 aie still too fresh in the memory of every one to need any special comment here. At the commencement.of tilie year the North German army bad fifteen army corps physi? cians, two hundred and thirty regimental pny sioians. three hundred, and fifty battalion phy? sicians, and six hundred and ninety-one assis? tants. This number has been considerably augmented since the outbreak of hostilities. When in the-field, every army corpB bas twelve field hospitals, each for two hundred Bick and wounded. - The volant arv hospital service, which bas proved such a great bleso ing during the campaign of 1866. ha's'again been organized, and a central burean ia estab? lished, where fnends'and "relatives can obtain immediate information not only af tho sick and wounded in the field hospitals, bht also of those removed fiom the field of battle for treatment in private domioils. All tbe ar? rangements may be' said tone as far perfect jw human ingenuity and Christian benevolence can make them. THE GERMANS IX AMERICA. National Convention o? the German Patriotic Aid-Societies. In pursuance of an invitation issued by this society in New York, a national convention of German patriotic aid societies was held at Chi? cago on Thursday and Friday last.

In cases where they form a branch of the German Patriotic Aid Society of the Unit? ed States, to at once inform the secretary of the New York Aid Society of the fact. " " THE MARTYRED MEMBER. [From the New York Tribune.] Mr. B. F. Whlttemore, member of the late House of Representatives from the First Con? gressional District of South Carolina, was found guilty upon irrefragable evidence of of? ficial corruption, 1. e., ot selling a cadetshlp at West Point He said that he sold his appoint? ing power and official authority that he might give the money to bis needy constituents. A more extraordinary plea never came from a representative; it was, in fact, the confession of a new crime. Finding himself in a tight place, Whlttemore saved-liiinself from expul? sion by resigning* be went back to his constit? uents, and they, grateful, doubtless, for his pe? cuniary consolation, sent him back to the same Congress; the House.not caring lo stultify Itself j and being by thc provisions ot the constitution sole Judge of the qualifications of its members, returned" him his credentials. His grateful con? stituents showed signs of sending him still to the next Congress; but Mr. B. F. W., in a let? ter exhibiting the virtuous exultation of Mr. Pecksniff, and tblnk'.ng lt doubtful whether the next House would prove more placable th mi the last, declined, in a letter of mingled dignity, wrath and sorrow. He recites his many services to the body politic; he declares modestly that for "five- years and more he had been identified with South Carolina's des? tiny'" "I have tried," he says, "to do my duty wherever duty called;11 "I have received," he declares, ''generous majorities;" "my acts," he urges, "have been unselfish; my motives for the general weal;" and here I am, he might have said, as good as twice kicked out of Congress, and with every prospect, should I be re-elected, of being kicked out a third time ! And all through the action of | "Logan, the wilful deceiver !" I am the vic? tim of an "unprecedented and unconstitution? al act The sacred rights of electors have been subverted ! Magna Charta has been despised ! ! Law, reason, justice, precedents have been disregarded ! I ! We, the governed, have no longer the prerogative to say who shall govern us ! ! ! !" And all this through the assumptions of "Logan, the wilful deceiver !" Verily, Mr. Logan has a great deal to answer for. And so on, through quantities of what we must be excused for calling the very purest flapdoo? dle ! Hold hard, Mr. B. F. Whlttemore ! Stop moaning and groaning and sighing and turning up the whites ot your eyes for a mo? ment 1 Don't you see that the main question ls whether or not you took the money ? You were either knavi.-h or foolish, and, in either case, you have proved yourself to be unlit lor a seal in the House ot Representatives ! Whether you be an ass or something morally wore**, does not make the least dlflVrence, ex? cept to your own conscience. A man who, in perlect Innocence, commits a penitentiary of lence, Isn't the person to assist in making the laws of the republic. He may be a model of ] mature piety, the most patriotic creature breathing, a very incarnation of benevolence, but the place of honor and safety for him is the private station. ., Yet we should not fall to express our admi? ration of Mr. Whittemore's course, In refusing to be again a candidate. Whatever credit he ls entitled io, let him, In the name of common humanity, receive. He keeps off the course, he mu us. le*t hy permitting himself to be re? elected, he mijiht "contuse his beet and truest I Irlends." HI* "friends" will be grateiul, or at least they should be. We assure him that there are very few Republicans In the country who-will not be profoundly thauklid to him L%5&^^cl?KKl*ri? walch he baa ex? hibited He reminds us, in Borne sort of those gentlemen who, alWr a compulsory emigration to a penal seillvuK.nt, declared that they .tell their country lor their country's good." Go, Mr. Whlttemore, if such aie jour feelings-go, wherever you pleases (provided the officers don't nab you lor the ptmHentiary,) and may you be happy | Aa lue prelate Bald lo GU Blas, "We wish you all manner of prosperity and a little more sense !" Your m bromine ie.' that yon hare been, found ont,:! tTnd??btedly there were many members ot the lasr, as there will - be many members of the next Congress, who are not a whit better than the unhappy Whltte? more, but they were or will" be Bhrewd and sharp fellows, knowing how to covet their tracks.. The fact ls, Mr. W. (if we may credit his letter) ls altogether too good for Congress, and if he should be sent back to Washington, he might be like, the simple-minded girl who used to inform the justice ol -the peace that she was ruined again.*' THE MO IC G ANTON RAILROAD. Connection between North Carolina and thia State. [From the Yorkville Enquirer.] A meeting was bald at Morganton, N. C., on tbe 18th instant, in the interest of the Morgan ton sad Sont h Carolina Railroad. Several ear? nest speeches by gentleman from various conn, ties wera modem support of the enterprise, much enthusiasm was manifested, and a com? mittee ' was appointed to solicit subscriptions. It was also resolved' that a meeting of the friends of the road be held at Colombia, S. C., on the first Monday in November, delegates to which were appointed from several counties of North Carolina. These proceedings show that the people of Western North Carolina anxiously desire a railroad connection with this State.. It is the part of South Carolina, and especially of York, to meet them with a hearty co-operation. There is serions opposition^ to be overcome, not only in North bot siso in So a th Carolina. Other localities would like to get this connec? tion with Morgan ton, and ii York wants it abe must work for it. Yorkville is evidently the choice of Morganton and Shelby, as the short? est and most direct route to Charleston. But to secure the road, something more than mere position is required. . Ont'people will be ex? pected to ci ve substantial aid to the enterprise, and we believe"they will cheerfully- respond, both by subscriptions and by sen dir g a d ele u a tion to the Columbia meeting, with assurances of hearty sympathy. We shall probably have more to say on this subject. COMMERCIAL NEWS. Exports. .
