WAR. .
A Tremendous Struggle Reviewed—He Thinks That
political Reasons Influenced Baziine—He
Blames Himself for Delaying the At
tack on the French Lines at Gravel
oUe Until Late m the Day.
Loxnox, August 23.—The Tings pub'
ishes loog extracts from Count von
Moltke’s history of the war of 1870.
Count von Moltke left the manuscript
ready for the press, which is, therefore,
published before his other posthumous
works, although it is numbered volume
111, The preface, signed by Count von
Moltke’s nephew, explaius ths origin of
the work, adding that his uacle bogan
to writeait in the spring $ 1877, and
worked on It three houfs a day at
Creisau. The Count returned to Berlin
in the autumn of 1877 ard finished the
work in January, 1888, after which
time he never referred to It.
He intended it as a popular account,
but involuntarily arranged the details
lu accordance with his own plan of
campaiga. Thus me work becomes an
expression of his opinion of the events
of the war. Th<» book is written in
Von Mike's clear, terse and pure style.
Thor* are no foreign or Germanized
wo/d* in It, and It is certain to take the
fjreiuost rank in the classic literature
of the century. The work is further
characteristic of the author'^ modesty,
his own name being mentioned only
twice—once as an officer of the King
deputed to treat for the surrender at
Sedau, and again as the writer of a let
ter informing the Governor of Paris of
the defeat of Aurelle and the occupa
tion of Orleans.
Elsewhere he is always simply “Chief
of Staff.” Seekers of new things will
find little to gratify them. The writer
closely follows the general staff account,
which was largely the work of his own
hands. *
In the introduction the writer re
marks: “Warfare is no longer a ques
tion of a small professional army. Wars
at the present day involve * whole na
tions. There is hardly a family that
does not suffer. The country’s whole
resources are Involved, and winter offers
no cessation of hostilities.”
He expresses the hnpe that war, al
though inevitable, will, iu the Interest
of humanity, become the more rare as it
becomes the more terrible. Proceeding,
he states: “It is no longer the ambitiou
of monarchs that endangers peace, but
the passious and dissatisfactions of peo
ples and the strife of parties. Even the
bourse’s influence is enough to precipi
tate war to protect their interests. It
follows that parliaments declare war,
the responsibility being more easily car
ried by au assembly than by an Individ
ual. Thus the weak government at the
head of our neighboring State must be
regarded as a standing menace to
peace.”
He then explains that the war of 1870
arose from the weakness of Napoleon
and the jealousy of the French nations
at the success of the Prussiau armies.
France, he says, demanded revenge for
Sadowa. The writer dwells on the sys
tematic organization of the German
forces as contrasted with the French
want of preparation, faultiness and
vagueness of the French plans of mobil
ization their worst plans of opera
of concentrindft'^itfute'd rather to a
defensive than an offensive attitudo.
Count Von Moltke’s plan was to cap
ture the capital as more Important in
France than in other countries. In
pursuit of this plan he aimed to drive
the French forces with persistency back
from th*» fertile south into the narrower
tract north, but, he says ft is a delusion
to suppose that the long-laid plans can
t>e carried out in detail. The first colli
sion upsets them. All that a leader of
an army can do Is to decide what is best
for an unknown period and carry out
his purpose unflinchingly.
In regard to Bazaiue’s conduct on
August in, Von Moltke says lie Is
t-mpted to fancy that political reasons
alone induced Bazaine thus early iu the
game to attach himself to Metz. Re
garding the attack on the French be
tween Gravelotte and St. I’rivat, Von
Moltke blames himself for delaying the
attack until late in the day. He notes
that the siege of Metz formed no part of
the original plan of campaign.
In regard to Gambetta and De Frey
cinet he says: “France had to pay
dearly for their energetic but dilettante
system of operations. With rare
strength of will Gambetta understood
how to arm the population, but not
how to direct it against the superior
leadership of the Germans. He pro
longed the struggle at the price of a
great sacrifice on both sides.”
Count vou Moltke excuses the delay
in bombarding Paris on the ground that
It was useless, unless he had command
of all the railways and waterways to
bring up his armies. It was also too
risky to attempt to enter \*aris at the
heels of tho enemy, which course might
have resulted in a repulse.
Count von Moltke discusses the pros
and cons of ail the difficult situations
as he proceeds. In one place he remarks
that theoretically pursuit should follow
directly upon victory, but that in prac
tice that course is hardly ever possible
with a fatigued army.
Taken as a wholo the work is the
most masterly precis of a campaign ex
tant. The appendix gives a memoran
dum of the councils of war held during
the campaign of 1S06 and 1870, much of
which has beon published bafore.
BARNKSVILLE.
The Trial of Marshal Kenaer—Rumors of
a Compromise Denied.
Special TtUorai* to th* R«cU'*r.
Rar.vksville, O., August 23.—The
defense iu the Renner case claim that
♦.hey have been offered a compromise.
The conditions are that should Renner
withdraw his suit against the fifteen
signers of the petition to impeach him,
they will acquit him, and pay all the
costs of the case. In an interview with
some of the prosecutors they emphati
cally deny it, claiming that they have
a sore case and do net
want to compromise it. The>
now claim that 8 should Renner be
impeached, there will be steps taken
immediately to impeach several of the
council. The charges against them
will be for furnlshiug goods to the city
while holding that position. The pen
alty in these cases should they bo prov
en guilty will be heavier than Renner s
as they would be State cases. The in
terest Is still increasing and after the
court adjourns groups can be seen on
the streets discussing the proceedings
of the day._

Dyspepsia
Pew people have suffered more severely
from dyspepsia than Mr. .E. A. McMahon, a
well known grocer of 8taunton, Va. He says:
“ Before l?T81 was In excellent health, weigh
ing over 200 pounds. In that year an ailment
developed Into acute dyspepsia, and soon I
was reduced to 162 pounds, suffering burning
sensations in the stomach,
palpitation of the heart,
nausea, and indigestton.
I could not sleep, lost all
heart In my work, had fits of melancholia, and
for days at a time I would have welcomed
death. I became morose, sullen and irritable,
and for eight years life was a burden. I tried
many physicians and many remedies. Ono day
a workman employed by me suggested that
I take a* ■ Hood’s
Suffering
sia. I did so, and before taking the whole of
a bottle I began to feel like a new man. The
terrible pains to which I had been subjected,
ceased, the palpitation of the heart subsided,
my stomach became easier, nausea disap
peared,, and my entire system began to
tone up. With returning
strength came activity of
mind and body. Before
the fifth bottle was taken
I had regained my former weight and natural
condition. I am today well and 1 ascribe it
to taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla.”

parilla do not bo Induced to buy auy other.

1 a sentence of recorded history behind.
Who were they? We shall never know.
Contemporary history furnishes no aid,
for they were isolated from all the world
beside. When was the mound reared?
None can answer, for it may have been
old when the pyramids of Egypt were
being built and Cleopatra’s Needle was
being fashioned.
To save it we have devised numerous
plans, one of which is to ask the teach
ers and pupils of the State to aid us.
There were last year 193,064 pupils en
rolled in the schools, and 5,491 teachers
employed. If they will give us but a
few cents each, we will save the Mound,
and certainly the scholars of our State
are those who have the greatost interest
In the preservation of this historic and
antiquarian monument.
The plan of work is this: The Society
is now sending to County Superintend
ents blank subscription lists with circu
lars, etc., which will be placed in the
hands of every teacher in the State,and
the teacher is requested to make a
contribution himself, and on the day
fixed collect from tho school In which
be is employed, carefully enrolling the
name of every pupil who contributes,
with tho amount of tho contribution.
These lists will b9 returned to the
Society to bo preserved in its archives.
The 10th day of October is tho anni
versary of the battle of Point Pleasant.
> That falls on Saturday. And all
teachers whoso schools are then in ses
sion will make their collection on Fri
day, the 9th of October, which is the
nearest school day to the anniversary ol
tho great historic battle.
The 10th of November is tho anni
versary of the murder of the Shawnee
chieftain, Cornstalk, at Point Pleasant.
All of tho schools will then be in ses
sion and in all of them, which wore not
open in October, tho collection will be
made, on the anniversary of thai event.
CvFGr thrr'insol utl\uns*'i^Taci^o to’the
rftethod of procedure and it is hoped
J that thero is not a teacher in the State
I that will not aid in the laudable work.
The Mound once in our possession
{ will never more be in danger of demoli
! tlon, but will be preserved to be studi
ed and admired by generations yet un
born. Will you aid us? It is hoped
that you will, and if so, we v^lll not
only save the Mound to posterity, but
at the same time gather and preserve
a library and historical cabinet that
shall hereafter be the pride of the
State. Earnestly asking your assist

willing to give.
