Sunday Horning, January 89,1871. Vite Toulon wm, tte? Gaul. Tho peculiarities of race forms ono of the m?ht interesting subjects of reflec? tion, to the philosophical mind. We have heard and read mach of the quali? ties of the Latin race and of the Teutonic race. Whatever may be said of tho past history of these races, as illustrated by the French and the Germans, it seems pretty well established that the Gaul is now no match for tho German. Bravely and spiritedly as the French have fought, the hardier, cooler and moro persistent qualities of the Gorman soldier have given to Germany success after success, and established ber superiority over Franco iu the conflicts of arms. It will not do to say that the French were unprepared and have been out-gcMo? ralled. This may be, and, indeed, in our judgment, is true, but apart from this stands out the fact that the Gorman has proved more than a match for the Frenchman-heavier, stronger, cooler, more persistent. -Gambella may be elo? quent, quick, spirited and patriotio, bat Bismarck can beat bim with his cool sagacity, his firm will, bis heavier calibre, and bis stern adherence to his deliberate purpose. And these two men are repre? sentative men, embodying respectively the chief characteristics of the French and the German. History will declare that Germany beat Franco because she showed herself superior in the mind to con?oive and the baud to execute. How MB. LINCOLN REGARDED CARTET BAGGEBS.-The following extract from a letter addressed by "Old Abe" to a Louisiana politician, has been published, bat will bear re-publishing. Ho said: "What we do want is the conclusive evidence that respectable citizens of Louisiana are willing to be membors nf Cuugress and to swear support to the Constitution,- and that other respectable citizens there are willing to vote for them and send them. To send a parcel of Northern men here as representatives, eleoted, as would be understood, (and perhaps really so,) at the point of the bayonet, would be disgraceful and out? rageous; I would cast my vote ngaiust admitting any such man to a seat." Now, let it be remembered that there is scarcely a carpet-bagger in Congress who has not been elected by the very means which the first Republican Presi? dent so severely denounced. Aud yet thoy are never rejected, while the party in Congress) waut more of thc same sort. -> AlTEK THE F AM, Ol' PAMS-W?AX? The Baltimore Sun, considering the go? vernmental futuro of France, nfl ur tho end of the preseut war, says: lt is hardly to be supposed that, aftor the surrender of Paris, with its enormous garrison, and the consequent release of the great mass of the besieging army to operate elsewhere, any successful resist? ance eau bo made by the rest of France. The humiliation of a surrender of the territories of Alsace and Lorraine will apparently have to bo submitted to. It remains to be seen whether Franco will Sro fit from disaster us Prussia did from ena; Piedmont from tho calamities in? flicted by Austria in 1848; Russia, from her defeat in the Crimea, and Austria, from the heavy blows indicted by Prus? sia in 1866. Adversity bus often proved au efficient though harsh schoolmaster to natious as well as individuals. It is obvious, however, that the future of Frauco is beset by great difficulties. Tho restoration of monarchy and tho establishment of n Kepublh: aro both surrounded by gravo embarrassments. A French writer of ability has receutly described in vivid colors tho Scylla and Charybdis between which Franco has now to steer. Monarchy no longer in? spires respect; it bas shown itself unsta? ble; and if restored in France, it would have to contend against tho whole body of Republicans, whilst universal suffrage and the freedom of thc press, which any Government would be obliged to retain, would constantly monaco tho stability of the throne, and thus vigorous measures o? repressiou be rosorled to by the m inardi, or else a diversion sought in a foreign war. On tho other hand, groat masses ot tho Fronch distrust the ability of a Republic to preserve order and security enough for industry and com? merce to go ou. In any event, the edu? cation of the people, which has been as strong an element of German strength in this war as of French weakness, can no longer be negloctod, for ignorance is evor the mother of despotism, and if permitted to brood over the French provincos as heretofore, tho country will ooutinue at tho morey of both dema? gogues at homo and invaders from abroad. With universal instruction, compulsory if necessary, aud universal military service, as formerly recommend? ed by General Trocbu, instead of relying upon a mero professional army, segre? gated from tho people, Franco may come forth from her present severo trial re? generated and invigorated. Tho Govornor of Massachusetts re? commends a change in the divorce laws j of the Stato, so as to "put an end to the acaudal of removing to Indiana for tho purpose of escaping from an embarrass? ing marriage" Some people will tell iou that it is a greiter Boandul to stay in rassaohu6ctts than to remove to Indiana for any purpose whatever. It is proba? bly not true, though. A RADIO AI, Vnnr-Tau THOTH Sir?es*. The Oharleetipn Eepubfipmmvj^^ ? ..Bat; now tho oorro?tiono and tibicT" inga pod general ^iMuagtoeril ot some ?I oar politicians, and ol BO rue of oar GO-caJled statesmen, are doing lrbafc oven tho fioioo hurricane of war could not do in disheartening oar people. The effect of the work of some of these jackals of polities is direful. "There are, in troth, good men hold? ing position in the government of the State-mon who are anxiously seeking tho advancement of the people-but many of those who hold ' office, both white and colored, hold it only because the tremendous revolution in oar affairs lifted them there by the merest accident, they themselves being steeped in corrup? tion. These aro creatures of circum? stance. Ou for o thousand years, per? haps no time would come that would lift this class of mea to the giddy height they now occupy. ..It is not that Borne of theso aro not graduates of colleges, or evea of common schools; it is not that they are cramps! in knowledge because of the political system which ruled the State; it is not this, for we are thorough Republicans, and not only believe io the government of the people, but know that many of the great-brained men who ore of most service to the State are cot of thc schools-it is not this over which we are gloomy, but it is that ao many ot our public men are thieves!. That bas a harsh sound we know, bat it is simply the plain. English way, and tbe only trae way, of patting.it. "From every side come rumora of the corruptions of officials. Some of those rumors are of coarse only rumors, with no foundation whatever, bat others of these stories are too true, and too unerringly point to the political perdi? tion toward which we are drifting, and which we shall sorely reaah unless tho people, whom these corrupt men do not in reality represent, rouse themselves to action." WHAT WE NEED IN SOOTH CABOLINA. The York vii lo Enquirer says: "The thing we need most ia this oouatry is more iahabitants. By inhabi? tants, we do not mean tenters or squat? ters, who expect to camp in the country a fow years. Wo mean individuals who expect to make this country their homo, and to live and die here, and at last to be buried in its soil. By no other class of men can the resourees of a country bo developed. .'Tho man who is wedded to the soil by no other tie than tho prospectivo guins of a few years, never thinks of de? velopment any furtbor than tho welfare of the wholo contributes to his presout income Suoh an individual makes no arrangement for tho fnture prosperity of the community in which he dwells for the time. His expectations are to ag? grandize himself by destroying, aud not by developing. The idea of increasing his own resources and those of the couutry, by saving and improving the soil upon which he lives, never enters his mind. Ruin aud desolation follow such individuals. Their course is mark? ed by destruotion. Of this class of pur sou* we have qnile enough. Wo need, however, thrifty aud industrious inhabi? tants. "It is sad to say it, but it is no slander to say, that a large number of the pro sent tenants of Southern soil are idle and thriftless. This is, perhaps, true of every country, to some extent; but it is truo of our country to an alarming de? gree. All over tho South there is n ciass of persons who have been guided and directed in all their efforts by an? other class. This latter class is, by the force of early education, dependent upon those whom they have been accustomed to control. Both these classes aro in n sad predicament. Tho only apparent redemption for either, and both, is self reliance. Whether these classes will ever work in concert or not, is yet to be proven. Ono thing, however, is true. The class that is most industrious and thrifty will mako tho greatest develop? ments, and if the other class remains idle, it will ultimately dwindle away and bo no moro. "All that this country needs, to make it ono of tho most desirable places on earth, is a thrifty and energetic popula? tion. Tho soil and climate, especially ol tho upper Counties of the State of South Carolina, are such as to meet the desires of him whoso only craving is wealth, whilst tho natural scenery is BO grandly picturesque as to fill n pout's soul with rapturous delight. Wo have no disposi? tion to make predictions; but we are im? pressed with tho idea, that by proper management, tho Stato of South Carolina will, at uo distaut day, bo regarded ne ono of tho most desirable places on the I'D ii ti ti od t. It is pleasant, ut least, te think that such will be the case; and should it provo to bo a dream never to be realized, it does no harm at present, but is a real good. "One thing is, beyond all controversy, truo: no mun ever did much for himself or his country by folding bis bunda in idleness aud complaining of lun d times. We huvo less need for the idler and gen? tleman of leisure than for anything OIKO. Tho duty of such individuals is to pul! off their coats and go to work. If they will not do this, tho soouer they leave, tho better it will bo for tho country, Their departure will bo hailed un a pub lie good. With tboir exodus, scarcity ol corn will leave the laud, und whether thc price of cotton bo high or low, tnonej will be plenty." Many persons are of the impression tliat Goo. Frank Bluir's Senatorial tern will commence on the 4th of Mare! next. That is a mistake. Hts tern commences immediately and terminate! on the 4th of Maroh, 1873. Ho is elect od to fill the vacancy caused by the re signatiou of Mr. Drake, of Missouri.

The bruto in Washington who pulled out tho tuuguo of u horse while in a tit of rage, bas been let oil with a paltry lino of $5. Tho sufferings of tho mu? tilated horse wore .so intense that it was found necessary to kill him. John Buder, a colored man, died in Cornwall, Canada, last week, aged 105 years. He served in thc British army iu the Revolutionary war, and in 1812, and had drawn a pension for fifty-seven years. At tlie Hoosac Tunnel, on Monday, a workman, named Jones, fell from the top to the bottom of the central shaft, a distance of 1,030 feet, aud was dashed to pieces.
