AT ABMEI) HOSTS. jftie Military Strength of Earop«-Ro«ter at the Destructive Forces of one Conti­ nent. [ From the Army and 5iavy Jcranial.] Capt. Vincent, Royal Berks militia, delivered a lecture on fclie above subject m the theater of the Royal United States Service Institution, London, on the af- tsniOGS T****** 10^ jTLon fltv TJ7ilKr»w Codrington occupied the chair. Capt. Vincent contented himself by making a hasty review of the armed establishments otf each nation--the following being, as he tells us, the forces which each, conn- try ought to count upon in an hour of necessity: Holland--68 battalions of infantry of 5 companies; 111 companies of engi­ neers. transnort. mm* • 91 pnno(l. fl .

Denmark--Five territorial brigades, 42 battalions of infantry, armed with the Solder and Remington rifles, 28 com­ panies of engineers, 21 squadrons of cavalry, 12 batteries of artillery, with 36,050 foot, 2,100 horses, ami 96 guns. Navies--31 steamers (six iron-clad), three of which have been converted on the French model, and of the remainder the Odin, of Danish build, a turret 8-inch armor-plated screw vessel, fitted with a peculiar steel ram, six feet in length, and hidden, when not required, in the hull. The Odin carries four 10-inch 19- ton guns. Germany (including Bavaria)--Peace establishment, 18,079 officers, 401,059 men, 97,379 horses. "War establishment, "21,495 officers, 1,273,346 men, with about 1,000,000 combatants, 270,920 horses, and 2,472 field gmis. In addition the new landsturm bill provides an organ­ ized force for the defense pf German hearths and homes. The lansturm is di­ vided into two classes. ~ The first, in­ cluding all able-bodied men not al­ ready in the army, distributed into 293 battalions, and calculated to produce 175,800 men. This addition wui bring the German wax strength to over 1,700,- 000 men.

In conclusion the lecturer said : " Of the fifteen States pf Europe, seven have introduced universal liability to military service: Germany, Russia* Austria, Prance, Italy, Denmark and Switzerland. The armies of seven are recruited by conscription, or conscription and enlist­ ment, viz.: Spain, Turkey, Sweden and Norway, Holland, Belgium, Portugal, and Greece, while in England alone are we solely dependent on voluntary enlist­ ment. Looking at the armies of Europe from every point of view, the rapidity ivith which they can be mobilized, led from reserves concentrated on any point, or maintained in the field, they may be arranged in the following order First-class--1, Germany ; 2, Austria ; 3, Russia ; 4, France. Second-class--5, Rifely ; 6, England. Third-class--7, Bel­ gium; 8, Turkey ; 9, Sweden and Nor­ way ; 10, Holland ; 11, Denmark ; 12, pain ; 13, Portugal ; 14, Switzerland ; 15, Greece. Altogether, four armies of the first-class, two armies'of the second, and nine armies of the third, with, in ound numbers, a paper strength of seven and a half millions, and a com­ batant strength of five millions, with 15,000 guns, and a million and a quar­ ter of horses." _________ the bandance of Corn at the South. The Selma (Ala.) Argus speaks of the esult of efforts at the South toward the >roduction of an increased, proportion of food material, and proportionate relief from dependence upon the resources of the Northwest, as follows : Instead of buying corn this year to make the growing crop with, the cane- break region has plenty to spare of its Jvm growth. The hundreds of thou­ sands of dollars that heretofore have been annually borrowed and sent to the Northwest for corn and forage and paid for transportation, are now in the pock­ ets of our planters, or will be as soon as their cotton in marketed. With plenty ... ' ,. .. - ' *' "";.. v.. - •• of food in their own barns and graneries, our farmers all have sleek and fat mules, and some have thirty hogs for another year's bacon. This. year the ooro crop will be much larger than last. Next year there will be a surplus of hundreds of thousands of bushels. Ther^ will be oorn, corn everywhere, corn plenty and to spare. There will be oorn in abund­ ance where there never was corn before. Cribs with bursting sides will be seem where only traditions tell of cnbs in the times past." Singular Story of a Massachusetts family. The Franklin (Ct.) Register says: The following •stract from a private letter dated HamilUwi, MMBB., i» one of our citizens is so singular, and at the same time authentic, that I send y,6u the record in print, believing it wiUprbveas interesting to the general public as it was to me: " Did I ever tell you of the 'Bleeders' here in Hamilton? I believe not, and so I will tell you about my own aston­ ishment, and in spirit see yours. The way of it was this: About a week ago I was here and heard of an accident which had occurred to one Charlie Foster. He had his nail torn off by machinery, and began to bleed severely. He finally bled so profusely that they summoned three doctors, but neither of them could stop it. The townspeople said, * There is no use in getting physicians ; they cannot cure him ; he is one of the Bleeders.' 'The Bleeders,'cried I, 'what do you mean by that?' 4 Have you not heard the story?' 'No,' replied I, curiously ; 4 tell me about it.' In substance it is this i Yoiirs ago, in the Salem witchcraft times, a sea captain brought his dainty, beautiful wife and little girl to Ipswich, leaving them there while he made a voy­ age.' A Spanish nurse accompanied them. The child was like her mother, beautiful. She was, however, of a pee­ vish temperament, and caused the nurse considerable trouble. Possessed with the spirit of wickedness, the Spanish woman opened a-vein in the child's arm at rtln Avwl rr 4na covrnvsAot v mvoji vcuo) (uiu tiuvuvuimig W1C UC»VAVOV punishment if she told, finally succeeded in bleeding her to death. The mother by some chance found it out, and the horror of it caused a decline, of which she died. On her death-bed, calling the nurse to her side she told her that she knew of the crime, and cursed her with fearful words, to the effect that every son the woman should bear should bleed to death, and that the sons of every daughter of her line to the latest gen­ eration should com6 to the grave in the same way. Mrs. Martha Hoyt, of Salem, an elderly lady, who has lived in that town all lier life, and knows perfect- j ly well the fated family, says that within her personal recollection there are five sons who have met their death by bleed­ ing. My uncle, also, says that even when a child, the ' Family of Bleeders' was a household word, and his grand­ parents frequently told of their knowl­ edge of the apparent success of the curse. One was slightly wounded, one died of hemorrhage, one bled from the nose, and in fact it is well known in this vicinity that what I teJll you is true. Will you not admit that it is very strange? I should add that Charles Foster, despite all efforts, died.'* | Historical Itein*, 1 j ? *<f m$lM& Death of Hans Christian Anderssen. The girted Danish writer, Hans Chris­ tian Anderssfen; i&^ead.. The cable con­ veys the sad intelligence of his loss to literature and usefulness, he having passed away at Copenhagen yesterday, aged 70 years and about three months. From poverty thip renowned author started on his way to fame, his father being an indigent shoemaker at Odense, on the island of Funen, where Hans was born. The boy's education was received at a free academy in Copenhagen at the expense of the State. At an early age he began his literary career, furnishing a number of little stories which found public favor. Ever a protege of the government, he was permitted to travel over Europe by the King of Denmark, his expenses being paid by his royal friend. After the experience of this trip, the young author launched forth into a busjblife of literary labor, produc­ ing poems, stories, romances, and fairy tiileo in abundance, winning notice and popularity at every step. Toward the close of his life he became more and more the children's friend, delighting the youth by the quaint and humorous productions of his imagination. That which Hans Christian Ajiderssen wrote beautiful and pure, and of the most ele­ vating and ennobling influence. His life was a blessing to the world, and all good people will mourn his death. Another Cure for Insomnia. A great many persons suffer from sleeplessness; and it doesn't help the matter at all to know that insomnia is the technical name of the trouble. Vari­ ous remedies have been proposed for this affection. Dr. Franklin advised sufferers to get up and walk about the room in the airy drapery of night. Counting a thousand or any great nuin£ per; imagining that you see a flock of sheep, one by one jumping over a fence; reading 's last book of poems; breathing steadily irom the nostrils, and fancying the breath is seen coming from them--all these and a thousand other remedies have been recommended by the wise and tried by the wakeful. And now Mr. Frank Buckland, the clever naturalist, ban discovered that there is nothing like eating two or three raw onions before going to bed. Those who cannot swallow them may have them stewed; but whether the sle- p they may bring will be bid my is a question. But should this fail, Mr. Buckland advises tlie heroic treatment of eating hard- boiled eggs, with a plenty of bread and cheese, before retiring. If nothing more this will insure the sight of your grandmother before morning. The Bishop of Oxford, Dr. Wilberforce, when he couldn't sleep, used to repeat very slowly the vowels, A E I O U, forcibly pronouncing them with each in­ spiration and expiration. THE Gen. Preston who made that crazy speech to the Virginia alumni used to be one of the richest men in South Caro­ lina. He had some hundreds of slaves, and the finest house «nri grounds in Columbia. The war stripped him of his property and his kindred. 1 THS white rose was the badge of the English house of York, and the Red that of Lancaster, Tin: substance of the story of John Gilpin was told to Cowper by a lady, but whether as a true story or as a myth, does not appear. PBIOS to 1760 csrpets ™SRS SET IESGWS in New York, but in the papers of that year Matthew Wilder advertised a variety imported from Scotland. RAHSGATB HARBOB is the largest arti­ ficial haven in England. The two piers extend about 800 feet into the BO*, and, bending toward each other, inclose an area of forty-six acres. BOIUNQ to death occurred in England in 1532. The victim was Rouse, the Bishop of Rochester's oook, who had B)isoned seventeen persons. Margaret a vie, a young woman, suffered in the same manner for a similar crime, in 1541. MASON AND Dno»'I IJINB was the name given the Southern boundary of Pennsylvania which separated that free State from the slave States of Virginia and Maryland. It was run by Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, two English surveyors, between Nov, 15, 1763, and Dec. '.26,1776. During the exciting de­ bates in Congress in 1820 on the ques­ tion of excluding slavery from Missouri, the eccentric John Randolph, of Vir­ ginia, made frequent use of the term, which wa# caught up by the newspapers, and thus gained a celebrity that it yet retains. THE South Sea Bubble was a destruct­ ive speculation that commenced in Eng­ land in 1710, and the company was in­ corporated by statute in 1716. The bubble, which ruined thousands of fam­ ilies, exploded in 1720, and the directors' estates, to the value of £2,014,000, were seized in 1721. The cashier, Mr. Knight, absconded with £100,000, but he com­ promised the iraud for £10,000, and re­ turned to England in 1743. The original projector of these schemes was John •*J£W, of Edinburgh, whe raised himself to the positionjjf Controller- General of the finances of France upon the scheme. The object of the South Sea, as well as Law's bubble, was the establishment of banks, East India and South Sea com­ panies, from which it was expected fabulous profits would be realised. »*, ... a*" ; Trade Recipes. To write on absorbent paper: Take one drachm of alum, dissolve in three ounces of spring-water, sponge tfie pa­ per with it; use when dry. Com­ mon ink mixed with gum-water can be used on this sort of paper as wclL Th@ paper used for foreign books will be found to be of this kind ; therefore the recipes will be useful for taking notes on. To make copying-ink: To one pint and a half of block ink add one ounoe of loaf-sugar. To remove grease- stains from books: TakO "india-rub­ ber solution," lay on a coat, and leave to dry ; then remove with a piece of ordi­ nary india-rubber. This is aMo useful and convenient for fixing prints in a scrap-book, and superior to paste or gum, as the india-rubber can be removed as just described,without injury to book or. engraving. To take out ink-spots : Take a little oxalic acid, dilute, apply with camel's-hair pencil, blot off with blotting-paper; two applications will obliterate ink of the present day. To make paper fireproof: Use solution of chloride of zinc, or the liquid of sul- phuret of calcium or of borium, after­ ward steep in solution of sulphate of iroD. To perfume books:: Sponge both sides of the leaves with musk mixed with one or two drops of oil of Neroli, and hang up to dry; To polish old bindings: Rub dry, and use " bookbinders' varnish " Y with, a soft sponge. To make strong paste: To two large tablespoonfuls or flour add as much powdered rosin as Swill cover a cent. Mix with 4* stout" (strong, black beer), and boil for twenty minutes. To keep from getting moldy,! add fifteen grains of corrosive sublimate to every half-pint; this is poisonous. THS MAN who takes too much punch makes a Judy of hiwumif. Stopping the Paper; Many years ago Mr. Swain, then edi­ tor cf the Philadelphia^Z/C^C9% was hailed in the street by a very excited in­ dividual, who informed in the most emphatic terms, " I have stopped your paper, sir and proceeded to explain the why and wherefore, all the time ges­ ticulating wildly. " My gracious, sir, yon don't say so! Come with me to the office, and let us see if we cannot remedy the matter. It grieves me that any one should stop my paper." Arriving at the office, Mr. Swain said, " Why, my dear sir, everything seems to be going on here as usual; the editors and printers are at work, and the presses are running. I thought you had stopped my paper." Then and there the excited gentleman, whom the long walk had by that time partly cooled, said that he had stopped taking his "one copy" of the Public Ledger. Mr. Swain was profuse in his apologies for having misunderstood the meaning of his late subscriber's word, and regretted that he had given him a long tramp of/ about 15 blocks. The gentleman went on his way home, a wiser if not a/ better man. Before he left, however, he ordered that the Ledger be still sent to his address. A Centennial Postoffice. The Postmaster-General has perfected arrangements for a centennial postoffice at Philadelphia next year, which, for completeness of detail, shall dazzle the representatives of the "effete monarchies of Europe" as they have never been dae- zled before. The amount of money ap­ propriated for the purpose of allowing •the Postoffice Department to make a dis­ play at the oentennial was very small. This trouble, however, has been obviated by making the centennial postoffice a station of the main office in Philadelphia, thus giving a chance at the regular ap­ propriations to pay its expenses. The object of this centennial postoffice is to furnish mail facilities for the small army of exhibitors and their subordinates, as well as the thousands of visitors attend­ ant upon the exhibition, who would not desire to go away down to the main of­ fice for their mail. The clerks employed in this office will be made up of the differ­ ent nationalities represented at the cen­ tennial, so that every benighted foreigner will find a fellow countryman, or one who can speak his language, in this cos­ mopolitan postoffice. Extraordinary, if Trne. The Boston Herald, relates the follow­ ing on the authority of a man who had a singular dream: " His father and moth­ er had recently died within three or four weeks of each other, and one night in a dream he saw his mother stantliHg by his bed, and a little distance away hie j saw a cot-bed, with a peculiar coverlet, on which lay a man. with his back! turned toward him. His mother called j him by name, and said,' Here are 87.') He attached no significance to the dream | until, when he went to the postoffice, he received a letter stating that his brother, who was on a Western railroad, had been bally crushed, and requested his pres­ ence immediately. On arriving at his brother's home he was struck with sur­ prise when he found him lying on a cot- bed, with the same kind of a coverlet as Jie had seen in his dream, with his back turned toward him. The brother died, and the gentleman was still more aston­ ished, when on settling his affairs the first bill presented was jast $7 in amount. Strange as the story muy seem, it is told by the man himself, and he is a gentle­ man whose veracity not one would im­ peach." . A CHILD, when T^Id that God was every­ where, asked, " In the room ?" "Yes." "In the closet?" J^Yea." "In the drawers of my desFr' ei Yes, every­ where. He's in your pocket now." "No, He Jun't, though." " And why not?"
