SECOND EDITION.

THE NEEDLE GUN AND CIIASSEroT. The question as to the relative merits of the Prussian needle gun and the French Chasscpot has not yet been settled. It may bo that, after full and fair trial, neither will bo found suited to a long campaign where facilities for transportation of ammunition aro not good. The needlo gun was a great success at Sadowa, whore the Prussian preparations for battle were most ample and complete but Sadowa was not followed by other battles, and the question of amunition supply for a rapid breech-loader has not yet been tested in a protracted European campaign. In this country, during the recent war many rapid shooting breech-loaders wero tried thoroughly. Of these, the Spencer rifle was incomparably the best, yet no regiment of infantry was ever armed with the Spencer. It became a popular arm in the cavalry service before the closo of the war but the testimony of all cavalry ofiicors is that it was an utterly useless weapon without tho sabre to fall back on. Regiments, unless thoroughly drilled and disciplined, invariably cxhaust01 their ammunition in preliminary skirmishing and had to depend on cold steel when tho conflict became closo. Sixty rounds,the amount of ammunitcn usually carried by a soldier, woro very readily exhausted in ton minutes, after which, if tho ammunition train was not noar enough to furnish an immediate supply of cartridges, the usefulness of tv regiment was destroyed, except so far as it could depend upon the sabre.

At Sadowa, tho contingency of failure in ammunition supply was guarded against but it is unreasonable to suppose that theso preparations could havo been so elaborate and perfect if the campaign had been continued into tho enemy's country, where tho immense trains necessary to supply ammunition would havo blocked and impeded progress. There are few so ignorant of war and tho usagos of battles as not to know that it is impracticable and im possible to supply regiments with am munition in tho midst of an engagement oven if so rare a thing should happen as that the trains with tho needed supply were all in convenient position battle liko Sadowa was planned and executed with a precision almost unknown to modern warfare and most mvorablo to tho needle gun. It re mains to bo seen if, in an extended campaign, ammunition can bo supplied to troops in such abundaneo and with such certainty as to enable them to •wasto bullets shooting ten times in a minute.

The

victory is not always to tho side that shoots the most—it more often bo longs to closo, cool, compact, and well uianeuvml divisions, in which men for the time lose their individuality and become parts of a terrible war machine a destructive body, knowing no opin ion, obeying one competent head. The nrmv having commanders lit to bo tho heads of such divisions cannot help being victorious.

extravagance of to-day. Different ages of the world have been ^noted for something distinct from that ifbr which tho previous epoch was well known, but in the present generation we find a little of everything which was a predominant characteristic of each dato sinco tho era of civilisation dawned upon the world. Besides .. this, the present age seems stamped with the brand peculiar only to itself notwljhstandlng that it displays somo things belonging to moro remote periods. I The present aiag« of our existence is an age of splendor, elegance and luxury, which is rapidly becoming unwar rantable, and tho most conspicuous of all the civilised nations of the earth are our own countrjimn in the ostentatious display are scarcely give countem plain In their nature. pretention/) display demand our respect, and modest, unassuming virtue seldom attracts our attention.

Intensity and excess characterize every thing we do—moderation is a word the meaning of which we hava forgotten.

But this extravagance is not limited to the inhabitants of cities only the people of the rural districts are becoming inclined to excessive prodigality. T^e affection which farmers and mechanics have for Uibor-saving machinery, and other improved implements in the catalogue of workingmen generally, leads to a prodigious amount of humbug on one side and an enortlie other.

It appears that extravagance has at last become endemic in this country and tho culminating period cannot be far distant, when this excessive prodigality will recoil with telling effect upon our national as well as individual prosperity. It should not be encourgcd further, if any one wishes to avoid being in at the death, for unrestrained indulgence in extravagance by tho whole peoplo will havo a tendency to bankrupt tho Nation and render our namo a by-word to our less prodigal neighbors. Would it not bo better policy to refrain from further excesses, and turn our attention to more legitimate pleasures?

FLIRTATION.—Quite an amusing flirtation has been progressing nearly ever since the inauguration of the session of the Normal Institute which has just closed, between a gentleman from the eastern portion of the State and a lady of this county. It attained its highest point during last week. The facts are somewhat thusly: After becoming acquainted, it seemed to be the desire of both to be together continually they recited together, talked together, took moonlight rambles together, rode out together, boarded together, and appeared to be alone together even when attending the Teachers' Sociables, so enamored and infatuated of each other kad they become. 'Twas love's young dream. Oft in the stilly night, in the sad and sombre twilight, he tuned his melancholy lute, and in tones as agonizing as the last faint sob of a moribund Thomas cat, or the wail of a disconsolate hound at the full moon in flea time, poured forth his plaintive young gizzard in—" We've met, loved, and Overcome perhaps by the fairy form which glittered and glistened, appeared md vanished, rose and dissolved, be^re his infatuated optics from whence tfe tears gushed in torrents, he could i^t finish the sentence but sat and g^ted with anguished physiognomy on fair Mecca of his sprouting affec-
