THE NEW ARMY OF FRANCE, How it is Made Up and What it Can Do. ! \ (•rnctiil llwrliitloa <st tlie >!• u Who tin) he rood for Fowitfr, In order to assure tho French army an ample and constant supply of re -1 emits, and gradually to expand it to I tho full strength which it is to pos sess in the course of time, Ihe law of general military service- the con scription, in a word of the first re public is to bo restored iu its fullost vigor; all permanent exemptions are to be abolished; and, subject only to dispensations of a temporary kind and strictly determined, every Frenchman capable of bearing arm's is to be liable to serve iu the ranks for periods deemed sufficient to make the national forces of udequnto pow er. Tho elements of an enormous military array will, by such means, bo fully secured; and care is taken that these shall form tho component port* of a finished product, not rude and almost worthless material. For this purpose (he liability to serve is to be real in all eases. Kvery French man who is enrolled us a soldier is to join tho army for a specified time, depending on certain and fixed rules, and nil those who have left tho ranks are to be held iu readiness to return to them during the whole time of t heir prescribed service. In t liis way two of tho worst vices of the old French system arc to be got rid of; the whole mass of the forces of Franco will lie composed, in the main, of trained men, and tin im mense reserve will be formed by de grees, made up of troops nearly as efficient. Finally, the methods are to be definitely given up by which tlie French army was marshalled for war; it is no longer to have its ele ments scattered, and, therefore, slowly collected and moved; it is to be kept together in organized units, at all times prepared for speedy ac tion, and capable of being quickly enlarged to their fullest strength, anil its whole mechanism is to be so contrived that I'cierit.y of "mobiliza tion” and readiness for tho field shall be a certain and easy result. Let us now see how these leading principles are to be embodied iu ac tual facts. The rule of general mili tary service, the conscription without lasting exemptions, will give Franco every year a contingent of about 150,- 000 young men. without counting the “disponseil-with” class, liable to be called out on important occasions. Kvery man enrolled in each yearly contingent will be obliged to serve for twelve months at least, omitting certain exceptions made in favor of aptitude and education; and a large number to be selected by lot, will have to serve a much longer time, in onler to supply the special am,, artillery, engineers and cavalry which require a long professional training. The yearly contingents so distributed will be liable to serve live years in the first main divisions of the armies of France; and though tho period of actual service for that part of tile men will, as a rule, bo shorter, they will brail hold ready to join the ranks at a summons I'niiii the Minister at War. When the term of five years shall have passed, each contingent will fail into tlie first reserve; ami here every man will again bo liable to serve a further pe riod of four years, and to be recalled to the army at a moment’s notice. After an actual or potential service for the two terms of five and four years, each eonttngenl willbedrafted in turn to the second reserve of the national forces, and it. will be held to service l'or live or six years that is, during eleven years in the two di visions of what is meant to be the last great support of t he French army. Koch contingent will thus, in differ ent ways, be subject to serve for twenty years; and consequently, at the end of that full period, the forces of France raised by conscription will amount to the immense aggregate of twenty contingents of 150,1)00 men each, all, or nearly so, trained and effective soldiers -with deductions, of course, for deaths tuul casual;iei —and even in ton years they will be formidable in no mean degree. The age of service, it should bo added, will be from twenty to forty, and thus the (lower of the youth and man hood of France will lie all enrolled in t lie national ranks. This immense mass of military forces will not, however, represent the whole of the power and resources of France for war. In addition to the conscription levies, she will have a “permanent army” of 120, 000 men, of “officers, staff, admini- 1 rathe corps, gendarmes, veteran and re-en gaged soldiers;" the legion e/ivoe/ere ami similar bodies, who have often added to the renown of her arms. This permanent army, we need not say, will Vie an extremely valuable force. It will largely contain the most precious and important ele ments of military strength ; it. will be animated by a high professional feeling; and it will give eonsitenoy and force to the arrays of contin gents. Taken altogether the. forces of France, after making allowance for all losses and non-affoctiveness of various kinds, would ultimately, un der tile intended scheme, reach the enormous total of 2,Ron,ik>o men, ac cording to calculations by no means sanguine ; and far th" greater part of this warlike multitude would, we re peat, be expert soldiers, not worth less recruits, or troops on paper. Let usnow combine and generally dist rib ute this colossal whole, the most, for idmablc organization for war which has over been designe I by a vauquish jed nation. Tlie permanent army and ! the first nine contingents that is, I those of live and four years’ service— would, it is believed, yield without. I difficulty about 1,250,000 men ; ami these arc to form the unlive army, | composed of a first line and a first reserve. The active army is in time of peace, to have a strength of 180,- j 000 men men present with the colors and in the ranks; for a considerable 1 portion of each contingent, though ! liable to serve, would be sent on fur i lough when it should have been suffi ciently drilled; but, on a declaration |of war, it would quickly expand into 1 a force of 780,0'K) men, by calling in at once the mass of the trained contin gents belonging to die first line and I tiie first reserve, these contingents ! being eight, it should be observed; in number; for the ninth, contingent, that of the existing year, would, it might be assumed, bo, as a rule, im- I formed. The 700,000 men would thus : immediately form an imposing army, made up, without exception, of excei ' lent troops; but this would be only j the first front of war which France would possess the means to present. Over and above tho 780,000 men, the I eight trained contingents would in a COLUMBUS, GA., SUNDAY, JUNE 27, 1875. short time be able to yield nearly 300,000 more, to those should be add ed the ninth contingent, about 150.- 000 strong, and tho "ilisponsed-with” class, which it is supposed would roach 141,000 men ; and inns a second army, though composed to a consid erable extent of raw levies—the un trained ninth contingent and tlie “disponsod-with” class- would be from 500,000 to (100,000 in numbers, would stand in tho rear of the first army and afford It a very powerful support. Nor are even these the lim its of tho force which, In tlio event of a protracted struggle, Franco would be able to place in tho field. Tlie eleven fast contingents that is, those of the later five and six year’service are, ns wo have soon, to form a sec ond great reserve; and this great army, which it is supposed would amount to 1,000,000 or 1,200,000 men, is to constitute tho territorial army, the supplement, of its active associate. This force is to be arranged into two main parts, tho first more ready to move than tho second. Its duties, speaking generally, would bo to pro tect, and defend the territory of France, te garrison fortresses, hold strong points anil set the active army free for field operations: hut occa sionally it. would join that army, and co-oporato with it in the shock of battle, and it is to be linked with it in the closest manner, i t is super lions to add that it is intended to provido the most complete material and equipment of all kinds for these immense arrays, which, wo sn,y it again, would, when fully ilovellopod, amount to 2,500,000 men, real soldiers by fur the greater number of them. In all these arrangements an imitu t ion of the German system manifest ly appears, hut there are some very marked differences. Frazer's Mayn ziue, Alnlmntu Iron. It is n gratifying fact we are pro ducing some descriptions of iron for which there i:s a foreign demand, no less than 10,03!) tons having been ex ported to Ihiropo during the year IST!. Iron for the manufacture of east, iron wheels, from Alabama furnaces, is being largely exported to F.uropc. A great deal of manufactured iron, and even American hardware, is also underselling tho manufactures of England, and being imported to that country, which tlie London Standard intimates is ono of tho causes of tlie prostration of tho iron interests Baltfonotv AilUTuwi. Tho recent mercantile failures in England are mainly in the iron trade, the depression of which is duo in a great measure to the underbidding of England by Germany and especially I>\ Belgium. The public schools of the continent and the skill of educa ted mechanics, have destroyed the former .supremacy of English labor. As an illustration of the condition of affairs across tlie ocean, wo note the recent statement that a firm in Wales offered to supply an English railway with twent y thousand tons of rails at a price which would not have given them any profit, and yet the contract was awarded to a firm in Belgium at twenty shillings per tun less than tile Welsh offer. The fact that iron gir ders can bo imported from Belgium at lower rales t hail the ruling prices in America lias caused a father re diiotion in the United States mar kets. Tho advantage which Belgium pos sesses over all the world arises from t lie fact that it is the only country in Europe (hat, keeps out of war. It is too small to meddlo with its neigh bors, and therefore concludes to mind its own business. It has no occasion to levy high taxes, and produces too much foodfor its flve-and-a-half mil lion inhabitants on 11,300 square miles of territory. So it happens that food and transportation are cheap and wages low. The railways of Belgium belong to tho State, car rying passengers at less than one cent per mile, and yielding a largo revenue besides. One cent is the price for shaving made by Belgium barbers in many large cities, anil yet they live well and comfortably. An excellent dinner of several courses can be had for twelve cents, and so on in proportion. The arts of peace instead of the arts of war are studied, and the art of swindling kept iu wholesale abeyance. Schools fertile training of mechanics are encouraged and utilized in both Belgium and France, which arc constantly ena bled to turn nui bel ter and cheaper goods than England, and will ulti mately have the effect of putting' down and keeping down prices in this country also. Belgium, France and Germany having no iron of their own, must seek tin; ore in foreign countries. If England can find it economy to buy Alabama pig-iron at Liverpool, the. continent can buy it with greater profit,. Tiie transportation of iron ore from Mobile to the continental cities is simply a question of time. — A fohile lierjlster. ri: 1; m u ;ni;vtnt i:Mirii<ei 11.1. INTERESTIN'U DETAILS. New Youk, June 20.—Further de tails of the great earthquake in Now Grenada, Columbia, South America, state that seven million pounds of coffee were destroyed, which will greatly affect this year’s crop. Of the fourteen thousand persons who died, only five thousand wore killed outright by the earth quake. The remainder perished from fever aud lockjaw, which, in that cli mate, nearly always follows severe injuries. During the earthquake in candescent balls of fire were vomited from the. volcano of Labotora, and set lire to many house, which caused a scene appalling and grand beyond description.

Himilily lli'iHii't til tin* Con ill lon or Crops. WashAuton, June 20. The month ly report of tho Department of Agri culture contains tlie following rela tive to tiie crop condition: COTTON. In tho larger portion of tho cotton area at tho usual time for planting, tiie soil was wet and cold in the At lantic coast districts, aud in a less de gree in the more western areas, and germination was retarded, but. not destroyed; afterwards tho weather became favorable for growth aud tlie chopping out process, with a tenden cy, in places, to an injurious lack of moisture. A frost, on the 19th of May, in North Carolina destroyed the cotton in certain swamp lands, and late frosts wero somewhat injurious in all tho States except Florida and Texas. Tho stand is ranch hotter than that of last year, anil the plants more advanced in growth, notwith standing their late start, and the crop is generally quite clean. No serious injury lias been done by Insects; the cut worm is noticed in some coun ties of Florida, Texas and Arkansas. The plants have been infested with lice in some fields in Florida. The threatened reduction in area has not been accomplished. While there lias been an increase in corn and wheat it has not been at tho expense of cotton. Nor lias tho reduced area of last year been much enlarged. Our returns make only 1 io 2 per cent Increase. There is only one Slate - Georgia which has an official bureau for tho collection of crop statistics, which makes tho reduction of acreage five per cent, which is within one per cent, of tlie result returned by our own crops in that State. Tho comparison with last year is as follows; North Caro lina, 102; South Carolina, 10C; Geor gia, iiii; Florida, 99; Alabama, 104; Mississippi, 102; Louisiana, 101; Tex as, 108; Arkansas, nil; Tennessoo, 92. Tlie maximum June condition of cotton for a period of five seasons was reported 1872; the order for the other four is 1875, 1873, 1871, 1874. Tlie comparison with a crop of fill! vitality and normal growth in all re spects is for t he-present month as follows: North Carolina, 92; South Carolina, 97; Georgia, 91; Florida, 94; Alabama, 101 ; Mississippi, 100; Louisiana, 95; Texas, 90; Arkansas, 90; Tennessee, 99. An investigation lias been under taken fur tho correction of tho basis of area in cotton ill vogue for years past. The statisticians has for years had strong reasons for believing tho area heretofore reported in cotton to have been too small, for the past two yeans has had demonstration of that belief. Alabama lias not printed an estimate since 187:1. The figures pub lished in all the domestic journals arc those originally returned by our correspondents, with annual modifi cations in accordance with tho yearly per centages of increase or decrease. There are excellent other systematic data for obtaining tlie acreage, and there is otherwise, in fact, nothing but individual guessing from person al observation or desultory facts. Now tho difficulty is this: Tn esti mating tlie average rates of yield tier acre of any crop whatever, farmers almost invariably assume too high a figure, whether from pride in the rep utation of their neighborhood for fer tility and good culture, or from tho controlling impression made upon their minds by tho appearance of the best fields. Our correspondents wero urged to avoid estimates and givo only ascer tained facts, so a census of a few farms would be taken here, a neigh borhood there, and occasionally a large district. The local officers were in some instances enlisted in tho work. Tlie results are not complete and arc not deemed quite sufficient for an | authoritative estimate, which can be | rolled on in the future as a perfectly j accurate basis of comparison, yet ! they arc too important to be with ! hold, and will be received by a fair- I minded public as the best known date for an approximate estimate of tho real area in cotton. Without perfecting these estimates it is evident Unit tlie true acreage of 1874 cannot fall very much short of three times as many acres ns wero produced of hales in 1871, or at least eleven million acre.-:, possibly a figure a little larger. This corresponds with the muss of facts brought to our ob servation annually for two years past. In connection with the inves tigation to fix tlie basis of area, pre liminary returns relative to the pres ent crop were received. A synopsis of those received after tho middle of May is as follows: During May pre liminary returns were received from : :;iu cotton counties. Tho season is reported late in nearly every in- I stance, from ten days to two weeks, ginerally, but in some eases throe and four weeks. More than two-thirds of | the returns make tho season two : wet, especially in time of plant ing and germinating in some districts. Tiie past .two weeks have been too dry. The stand is reported good in a majority of the returns from North Carolina, Soutii Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Texas; rather above tiie average in Arkansas; slightly below in Georgia, Missis sippi, Louisiana and Texas, anil av erage in Alabama aud the Carolinas. The report on tho wheat crop lias already been published. TIiIJiMUI'HH ITIDIS. Special to Daily Timka, by 8. k A. Lino.)
