For a long tlme*HbtT" was "the" ob? ject of universal admiration. General Trochu conferred the Legion of Honor upon him for Hav? ing alain over thirty Prussians. General Schmitz gave him an official bulletin, and he was inter? viewed by journalists. Hon* generally used to go ontalone at night, and bring back helmets and muskets in proof of the amount of business he had performed. On the 2d of December Hoff, much to the grief of hi3 comrades, disappeared, and the government was gratuly blamedjor hav? ing aiidwed so valuable a mrm to go Into action like a common mortal. Id .some quarters lt was considered that Hoff should nave replaced Tro? chu. When it wai supposed that he had fallen, a subscription was raised for his disconsolate "widow," which was carried vo that lady with the greatest respect, by four officers (reminding one of Monsieur Malbrnck's funeral.) To the astonishment of the military deputation, the first exclamation er the bereaved one on seeing men in uniform enter her apartment was, "I didn't know he wasaPrnsslan till the other day." Tableau! Paris can't help laughing at having been outwitted, shrugs its shoulders, and says, "Sommes nous oites ?" According to the Franes tlreurs. Hoff has since been caught and executed. The Futnr? of France. A very remarkable article on this subject has appeared in tbe FortniglUly Review, (of Lon lion) from the pen Of Emil o (Je LBveJeye, which is well worth; the atteution of alcp? sops interested in the welfare of ?Frapcefanu the progresa of humanity. The writer takes as the test ot his remarks the theory started "by Hs f^Ietan, one of the members'1 of the present Provisional Government, that in modera wara the yaoqqiflhed derives advan tagefrom bis defeats oswell as ttie-conqueror does from his victories. This he illustrates by the example of Prussia after her subjuga? tion by Napoleon I; of France, after 1815; of-Piedmont, after being crushed by Austria i?,ls48-^ail of which nations soon.recupera? ted from their disasters, and have since be? come leading powers, the first baaing the . lead and control.of nearly all Germany, the latter of all Italy. They became great through, the uses of adversity; end this is ' what is claimed to be in store for France, provided she will profit by the lesson, if. France doe3 this, she may .yet date her com plete regeneration from the year 1870. \v"hy, asks M. Lavcleye, has Germany become BO powerful 7 In large part because she bas a system of compulsory education and com? pulsory m attars service for all. It was ign o ranceas well as over confidence which de? stroyed the second Empire. The Emperor and his advisers and generals were ignorant of the recent history and tenden des of Ger? many, of the tactics and condition of the Prussian army, and apparently of the geo? graphy ott Earope. Tae^ Prussians knew more about the geography of France than the French officers did. The uneducaied French soldiers; accustomed to fighting wild Arabs, found themselves face to face with educated men "in spectacles," some of them speaking ancient and modern lan? guages, and writing letters in Hebrew and Sanskrit, who were intelligent enough to make an. inferior weapon like tho needle gun prevail over the chassepot. Intellect) vanished force. Tbe students annihilated' tho Tarcos. 'But then Germany has freely given her money for the advancement of in? struction, while France had beeb expending, millions on tho hew opera, th<?iadies of tbe ballet, barracks, palaces, gilding inonu-, mente, and external display, begrudging even such a .eu ni as $200,000 for educational purposes. All this must be changed if France would regain her power and influ? ence. Her army must become the adult Behool for every citizen, and he mast therein complete and consolidate the education he shall previously bave been con pelted to re? ceive in the primary schools. Ho must bo taught gymnastics, swimming, inarching, manoeuvring, aud the development of his physical strength, as well as of his intellect. M. de Laveleye cites the testimony of Madame de Stael to show the contrast which such a system bas produced on the Germans. In her time they were "30ft, gross, siug "gish, without impulse or patriotism-an in? sert mass that Napoleon kneaded at his will." Now they are men of iron, bending others to their will. France must got rid of her tradi? tions of the Revolution and of tho first Em? pire, and her idea of military preponderance, and be content to see other nations surpass her. Provost Paradol was ia despair be? cause he foresaw that at the end of the cen? tury there would be 70,000,000 of Germans, 90,000,000 of Russians, 160,000,000 of Anglo Saxons, and only 45,000,000 of Frenchmen; but it was weak in him to be so, for in all probability tho-Uni ted States a century hence will have-200,000,000 of citizens and Russia perhaps 100,000,000, and it would be absurd for England and France to exhaust them? selves ia ruinous wars, in any vain effort to hinder them. .Besides, nations are not hap? py or glorious merely on account of their numbers or military preponderance. Athens and Judea have reudered mightier services todnankind. than any other nations. Military supremacy could only be maintaiued by France at the cost of enormous taxes, which would ruin industry and check progress. The late French Government commjtted a series of contradictory mistakes in its for? eign policy. It wished to keep its neighbors weak, divided and dependent; yet it favored Italian unity, and thereby promoted German .unity. By weakening Austria it strengthen? ed Prussia; then, making friends with Aus> tria, it threatened Prussia, aad embarked in the war which destroyed iL .It made an enemy of Russia in the Crimea, and did not secure the effective atllahco of England, and by interfering in Mexico it made enemies' on' the American Continent. Lastly, it oflended the Italians by withholding Rome, and then it offended the Church by giving up that city to them. It would be difficult to ima? gine a policy more calculated to subvert a government. In futuro France should adopt the policy of non-intervention, and give up all idea of supremacy in Europe, except such ' as she shall become entitled to by virtue of her intelligence, ber civilization, and her morai and social development These broad principles, boldly and clearly advocated by one of France's own publicists, as they have been in the articles referred to above, are Jhe true basis of the regeneratioa of that nation. M. de Laveleye, however, appears to have doubts as 'to the siccess or stability of a Republic, and fears that, in the exasperation of the people at the failure of the Empire, and the delusive resalta of the plebiscites, theelevatorawill rug)itothe'op posfte extreme; and Yoi* for the'wildest'ao cialists, communists and red rep?blicanB^or for the most bigoted 'l?gitimiste. He be? neree the uneducated classes of Prance to be unfitted for universal suffrage. His views as to suffrage, labor, and. the relations be? tween Church and State will hardly be ac? ceptable to many of bis countrymen. Eut, apart from these paints, the article is one of singular force and suggestiveness; and it is a hopeful sign for the future of France to lind that it embodies the'sentiments of some of the present leaders of the people-Jules I Favre and Eugene Pelletan, and of M. Du ruy, the late Minister of Public Instruction under the Empire. THE Lynchburg Republican chronicles with regret the death of Thomas Wm.

It is In evidence that in many Instances where the greater portion of the population of an entire set? tlement have been prostrated by bilious r?mittent fevers, the few who have had suillcient forecast to take the Bitters as a preventive, havo escaped tee scourge. Aa a remedy after an attack has actually commenced, this celebrated tonic and autl-bllious elixir is Invariably efficacious. In such cases, If taken when the ie vcr ta off, lt will soon contrcl the paroxysms, and when thc pa? tient ls convalescent, lt will restore the appetite and recruit tre strength more rapidly than any other stomachic and luvlgorant in use.

Thousands regard the wluteras a season of trials; and the truth ls, that If there is a weak point in the sy.-tem, winter ls pretiy sure to find it out. Constitutional tendencies to disease are generally aggravated by damp and cold. (Rheumatism sometimes lies perdu all tne summer and fall, to pounce upou Its victims In the season of cold.) As a means cf fortifying the body against all thu discuses which prevail most extensively In winter, HUSTETE lt's STOMACH BITTERS cannot pe to? urgently recommended. There would be fewer cases of the pnliuonary complainte tending to consumption, ir ait feeble .systems were invigorat? ed during Die sca-ou with a c urse of this Inesti? mable vegetable tonic and alterative. Constipa? tion, indigestion, torpidity of the liver, ami a gen? eral .?liinKlshnesB of tne secretive .organs, very gencra lv prevail at this period or the year. To all theta ailments experience (the most trust? worthy of all mentors) teaches us that the BIT? TERS is a reliable remedy. Warm clothing ls a good external defence against atmospheric cold and moisture, but vigorous activity In thc vital orguulzatlon which generates heit and delivers lt to the surrace, ls also essential to heulth, and this activity is secured througlt the operation of the BITTERS. The skin sympathizes with the stomach, and If digestion ls regular and perfeot, th exterior circulation wld be brisk, and damp and cold may be encountered with comparative safety. _fet>4-6oac J pS-Tim GREAT MEDICAL WONDER, DR.
