TROUBLE IN CAMP. -A. Gorman Satira on tho "British Mutineers." '?{Translated rrom the German for this paper.) 'NDER tho cir? cumstances it is not at all strange that tho German comic papers uro having a great deal of fun over the recent muti? nies of the crack regiments of tho British army. Accustomed as the Germans are to the iron disci? pline of Moltke tho conduct of the English mil? itary authorities seems ine.omprehensi fble. The following telling satire is from a leading German journal: Tho scene is at Wellington Barracks. Tho Colonol of the Royal Grenadiers ap? pears smoking a cigar, and accompanied ?by his adjutant. Tho bugler blows tho assembly, but the soldiers fail to appear on parade. Colonel?Adjutant, have you any idea where tho men are'.' They usually fall in when tho assembly is blown; that is, if they aro in the neighborhood. Adjutant?I cant imagine why they do not fall in, unless they have forgot? ten that you were to hold inspection this morning. Colonol?These oversights are very annoying.- Bugler, blow the assembly once more. The bugler blows the assembly; sev? eral officers appear in undress uniform. Colonel?Good morning, gentlemen. 1 hope, yon are all in good health. By "l woxnr.ii wiiKKK the mi:n auk?" the way. have any of you seen any of j the rank and tile this morning? Major--Colonel, 1 regret to inform you that the grenadiers have held a I mass-meeting, at which it was unani? mously resolved not to parade to-day. Colone1.?I regret very much that 1 yras not consulted. Captain?I don't think I ever saw them ill such a bad humor. Colonel- And yet usually they are so polite. Lieutenant ?They are, a lot of vaga? bonds; that's what they are. Colonel?Young man, don't make the situation any worse than it is by such Improper remarks. Such remarks re? garding her Majesty's grenadiers are al? together o;;t. of place. Instead of exas? perating the. men beyond endurance, let us try and lind out what is the real cause of their complaint. [ wonder why they did not come to me about it. ? Captain?Private Tommy Atkins, who is on guard at St. .lame-,' palace, com plains that his wife is dissatisfied be? cause he is not able to spend more time j in her society. Cu*lonol?That is a 3entiment that does [ him credit. The English army owes its ' strength principally to the family in? stinct of her soldiers. Captain?Grenadier .'lones complains that he can not Und time to take his lfttle daughter to school, and Grenadier Robinson had an appointment to meet a lady, and owing to roll-call ho was too late. Of course, he is in a towering L frage. Colonel ?I don't, blame him. That's [tho way I would feel al out, it myself. [(Taking the Captain aside the Colonel nquircs in a whisper if tho lady is of cry high rank, to which the Captain 4odshi| head, winks, and says: *',lack Robinson is an awful lady killer, lie is ? ?0 pride of the regiment. By the way. jiugler, would you be so kind as to blow ,he assembly once more.") Bugler?I would like to accommodate Oil, Colonel, but. as all the. other sol- | iers have, refused to obey your orders I an!t bugle unless I havo their permis ion. Personally I am your friend, but can not violato the traditions of the : rmy Colonel?Bravo! You have got tho i tuff in you out of which heroes aro 1 ade. Go to your comrados and tell j em that I am anxious to have a con- I renco with them. I expect they ob- ! ;ct to having to drill. 1 don't blame ! item; for that's the way I feel about it yself. Bugler (who has returned)?Colonel, i Ii? men positively refuse to eoino; but ey say,that if you have any pronosi |on to make to them, and will como their mess-room, they will listen to i; Colonel (to officers)?That's just what XpCCted. 1 knew that this little otf tfil of bad humor would not last if I niained firm. Gentlemen, lot iis meet (sencournging proposition in tho same l'rit in which it is tendered. Little fjferonecs iiko this occur in the best, 4cipiincd regiments In the world.
