It seems more likely to be ol use against a mob In a revolutionary city, than in warfare. But on a plain, at short ranges, and in the hands of five or seven skilled attendants, a mltralleur ls os effective as four or five times that number of men with small arms. -A letter from Wissenburg in the North Eastern Correspondence says that every Prus? sian soldier has in his pocket a sort of album containing colored drawings ot the various uniforms In the French army, so as to enable him to report when on outpost duty the exact nature of the troops he has Been. He is also provided with a little book published this year , ?at Berlin, under the title of The German Sol? dier in France; Manual for enabling any Ger xnan to make himself understood by French? men without knowing the language of the country. This "manual" ls simply a vocab? ulary of the words and phrases which a Ger? man-soldier in France would be most likely to I require In his conversation with the people. -r-The French steamer Lafayette arrived here from Brest to-day. Just as she was about to sall from Havre forty of her crew were Im? pressed into the Imperial service. The news of the recent French disasters, and of Hie over? throw of the empire and the proclamation of a French republic, was first made known to the. crew and the passengers of the Lafayette .at Sandy Hook. The announcement of the disasters brought tears to the eyes of the lemale and to even some o? the male passen- : gera, but thia despondency was overcome bv J -unbounded enthusiasm caused by the news of the proclamation of a republic. Cries of Vive :la R?publique.' resounded on all sides. The nallors declare that on the return of the Lafayette to France they will volunteer in the ' service of their country. -A Paris writer sends the following account Of the war fever among the French ladles: *'Just now there is no talk ol toilet tables; it ls all lor the female volunteer rifle corps; and as a few o? the provincial chatelaines have .been accepted in the Franctireur regiments, II hasten to describe the uniform at their dis? posa". It ls a black velvet sack or jacket and black velvet knee-breeches, (some prefer them long, but the average length is a few 1 nches below the knee,) red and black check .square stockings, and flannel shirt ot the same pattern and color, a black velvet cap with a .tri-olor feather, a game pouch and gourd. Thia la the uniform for the frontiers. Nothing has been settled as yet as to what the women will wear when lt comes to marching off to the Paris fortifications; but as all hare declared they mean to take positions round the capital In time of need, we may look forward to the varied styles on avery extensive circuit, just twenty-seven leagues around." -The following anecdote of General Trochu may be read with interest at a time when he is called upon to play an important part in public affairs, as lt shows that he ls not less distinguished for his private virtues than for his talents and courage as a soldier. Upon the death of his father, some years ago, he be? came entitled, under the French law of succes sion,'to a moiety of the small patrimonial estate in Brittany, which was to be divided between himself and his brother. This brother had eleven children. The General has none. He simply remarked that his brother needed the property more than he did, and relinquished his share of it. Not long afterwards Iiis brother likewise died. Upou this occurrence the General observed that, having no family of his own, he was the better able to provide for that which Providence had bestowed upon him. He adopted his eleven nephews and nieces, laid down his carriage, reduced his own domestic expenditures, and assumed with cheerfulness the duty of providing for the whole of his late brother's family and house? hold. The Military Failure of France. For more than half a century it had been the general belief that the French military system was practically perfect, and that, in all matters which affected the comfort of the soldier in camp and on the march, there was' absolutely no room for improvement. This feeling wa3 strengthened by the knowledge that military glory was the one great tradi? tion aud constant desire of the French na? tion, and, as Ute Napoleonic dynasty was hedged in by steel, it was not doubted that the Emperor had, even to the injury of other interests, lavished his care and the public treasure upon the soldiers of the Empire. It was, then, a shock to all Europe when, im? mediately after the first battle of the Franco Prussian war, the French officers and sol? diers complained loudly of short rations, de? fective ammunition, insufficient transporta? tion, and a lack of hospital supplies. The whole supply service had broken dnwn. Where the French system was thought the strongest, i. e., in administrative or? ganization for the comfort and protection of the soldier, it had shown itself incapable, weak, and in a condition of helpless confu jion. Plausible explanations were given to the public. Crie3 of treachery near the :hrone, and of fraud in high places, were rais? ed without delay. Every explanation was riven but the true one, which is, that the French supply departments are radically vrong in system, and, since the peace of 1815, have broken down whenever the strain )f war has been put upon them. The main acts are explained by General Trochu in bis veil known work, "L'Arm?e Francaise en .1867 " which wor!c, by the way, shelved the tuthor, and gained for him the ill-will of ?very military barnacle in the Empire. In 1 he chapter upon Intendance or Administra- 1 ;ion, General Trochu says: "In France, after the campaigns of tho Re? public and the Empire, men whose experience ivas considerable united for the purpose oi furnishing the army with a 6ystem of militai y art ministration, the principles, and mechanism of which had a high practical value in refer? ence to war.In the system of these great administrators, the direction an^ control of the various services were carried on, side by side, without being confounded with one ano? ther.The i.irectors, the controllers, and the executive officers were men of business, who had been initiated into business from the first step in their career, ind educated from an early period lor the performance of their func? tions in the army by actual duly, by exchanges, and by being specially brought :nto contact in every way with the details of those functions. They lived from the uge ot elghteea or twenty in an atmosphere of business, having sp?cial reference to the administration of the army. .The members cf the central department, and the agents of the administrative services, commenced their career as students, learning from their youth what was always to be their specialty. Under the system which prevails now-a-days, all such functionaries, without ex? ception, before entering upon their public busi? ness, have been through long years-the years of youth, in which men learn and study with most fruit-officers and non-commissioned officers In the army. With them a public ex? amina'ion takes the place ol tenor fifteen years of practical and professional experience. What do I say-of thirty or forty years of such practical experience; for we see generals of brigade, not unfrequeutly at the last sta^e of their career, becoming Intendant-Generals, that is to say, the arbiters for the next war, of the existence ot our troops In the field. It is idle, I think, to search through the whole scope of the public affairs of France lora more astounding specimen of blunder." The same high authority assures us that through the failure of the Intendance in the' Italian campaign, whole divisions of the French army wei'? often for days together without bread; and that in the Crimea the army must have perished but that a well kuown house of business in Marseilles step? ped forward to sustain a paralyzed depart? ment. Again, we find that ia consequence of being thrown upon the Intendance for its supplies, the medical department of the French army, both in Italy and the Crimea, was continually at its wit's ends. The Sur geon-in-Chief of the Guard, writing from Alexandria on the 19th of May, 1859, says: "No litters, no ambulances, no wagons; I have begged hard for chloroform and per chloride ot Iron; nothing has as yet been given me." He writes again from Valeggio ou the 7th of July: "For the last fortnight some regiments have only once or tw.ee had bread, and even then it was mouldy and of a very bad quality. Wine has completely failed; there lias been scarcely ipy l3sue of it." On the 2d of July, an officer wrote to the Emperor himself from Castiglione: "Sire, the wounded of Solferino, who are crowded here, have never yet had their wounds dressed fer want of supplies. We have lint, but no linea, no sheets, no sugar, no provisions." Matters wore quite as bad in tbe Crimea, perhaps worse. It is stated in the Gazette Hebdomadaire, in which some recent arti? cles on the medical statistics of the French army have attracted great attention, that whereas in the English army 33.9 per cent, and ia the American army 40.2 per cent, of surgical operations in war prove fatal, in the French army the proportions were, during the Italian campaign, 63.9 per cent.i during that in the Crimea 72.8; and the cause as? signed fo: such excessive mortality ia the A fi JU V;liniMJii supremacy-the omnipotence-of the Inten? dance Militaire, which, from a medical point of view, is io a condition of absolute inca? pacity. This reads like a chapter from the history of the war of 1870. Divisions without bread for days together; no linen, no provisions for the wounded; no ambulances; no wag? ons ; no chloroform. And, we may now add, cartridges of sand, cannon balls of wood, and thousands of horses existing only on paper. How was it possible for the French to succeed ? Their system was wrong ; their officers were inefficient; they starved before battle, and, if wounded, lay rotting on the field until they were succored by the advanc? ing Germans. No army could hope to main? tain its discipline and keep up its spirits under these conditions. And the whole re? sponsibility rests upon the shoulders of that "Intendance Militaire," which is "ia a condition of absolute incapacity." Another popular delusion is dispelled. It eau no longer be said, in matters of military administration, that "they manage these "thiugs better in France." Furman University. A public meeting was held in Greenville, on Friday, the 2d instant, at which Dr. James Furman, the president of the university, an? nounced the plan of endowment which had been agreed upon, viz: 8200,000 to be raised in bonds, bearing interest from Janu uary 1st, 1871-principal not liable to be demanded till January, 1876, when one-fifth was payable ; and so on every year, till the whole was paid. If the obligee died before the expiration of the first five years, then the bond became null and void. A preparatory school is to be connected with the institution, where tuition, free of charge for ten years, would be given to those taking bonds. El? oquent appeals, in behalf of the university, were made by Dr. Manly, the Bev. W. D. Thomas and Mr. Capers. We sincerely hope that the efforts of the trustees may be successful, and that the corresponding secretar}', Mr. T. D. Gwin, will soon have enough applications for bonds to make up the amount required. Parallels. General Phil. Sheridan, the barn-burning, woman-insulting hero of the Valley cam? paign of 1864, told Bismarck that he could ou ly compare the surrender of Napoleon at Sedan to that of General Lee at Appomat? tox. Comparisons, we know, are odious, but we cannot forget that General Lee sur? rendered at Appomattox only 27,000 men, of whom Ie33 than 10,000 were armed. At the close of the war, the Confederate forces numbered, at the outside, 150,000 men: while, nt that time, the strength of Hie Uuit ed States armies wa3 over 900,000 men, of all arms. With as many men ns McMahon had at Sedan, General Lee would have marched from Petersburg to New York and thence to Chicago, whether the opposing army was double or treble the strength of bis own. }- _ . The Nomination of Rulney. It seems that Senator Rainey has been rather obstreperous since his nomination for Congress by the Radical Convention. The Darlington Democrat says : "Two weeks ago, Rainey would doubtless have received thc nomination of the Beform party for Congress, simply because he was es? teemed to be honest. But the character cf the speeches delivered by him recently renders such a nomination now, In our opinion, lmpos possible. He sustains the corrupt administra? tion of Scott, endorses the reckless expendi? ture of public money, maligns the whites, and endeavors to intensify the ill feelings unfortu? nately existing between the races. ''Under these circumstances, the ratification of lils nomination, we repeat, ls impossible'" MOST likely the "French officer," shut up in Sedan, who sent the New York Tribune a telegraphic report of the battle, and of the sur? render of McMahon's army, wa9, himself, one of the French officers whose "neglect of duty," and "avoidance of the fatigues of long marches and the discomfiture of b?v? ouacs, " he so bitterly condemns. His place, if an officer, was with his men-not in a bomb-proof passageway. THE Radical meeting held at Blackstock, last Saturday, was an utter failure. The Chester Reporter says that even the elo? quence of Wimbush failed to draw from the cora fields oear by a number of colored men who were pulling fodder. Ox Wednesday, Governor Scott commis? sioned thc officers of the Columbia Rifles, as follows: Richard O'Neale, Jr., captain; C. J. Iredell, first lieutenant; W. H. Mauning, second lieutenant. THERE was to have been a Grand Radical Rally at Aaderson on Saturday, but no speakers arrived until late in the evening, when the majority of the faithful had gone home. It was a huge fiasco. THE Oconee Courier says that the Radical County Treasurer is a defaulter to the tune of $1980. _ Reform Topics. -There was an enthusiastic Reform meeting at Providence Church, in Anderson County, ou Saturday lost.
