“DIE REVOLUTION VON OBEN” | Discovery by a Herald Corre- | spondent. —_ Stray Leaves from the “Mys-| terious” Book. WHERE HE FOUND THEM. The Troubles of a Munich Printer.

Equally mysterious | Were the assertions about the authorship of the Work, The original prospectus read something a8 tollows:—‘Under the title of ‘Die Revolution von Oven! will shortly appear a Jarge and in the high- ost degree interesting work irom the pen of a well known statesman who playea an important rdlein the two past decades, but since the unhappy year of 1866 withdrew bimself from the diplomatic feid, aWaiting only the proper time when be may again take up his diplomatic career and devote bis ser- Vices to the Regenerated Christian State of the Future.

Julius Lang, at tne time a resident of Munich, ‘Was doing the work of writing and printing.

They beard some time ago that the mysterious Julius, Who seems to have @ true Mepbistopheiean na- ture, entered whe editorial bureau of the New Fremdendiatt, at Vienna, and offered a number of oMcial documents for sale. The editors, after acon- | fabulationy decermined that they could not pur- ehase them, whetlier because they were of too @erious a character or whether they appeared to them worthless 1am notaware, All we know ts this, that a lew days ago the editors of the Vienna journal were cited before the Vienna courts to give evidence at the instance of Berlin, in the case Bow proceeding agatnst Arnim.

Let me gise you, first of ail, agiimpse of the man as he 1s known here. You will see him to be a bold, unscrupulous jour. Nalist; but, alter all, I think you wiil come to the Conclusion that he ts jast the man to create a row @omewhere if he gets the chance. SEETCH OF DR. JULIUS LANG. Let us begin at the beginning. He was born at ‘Vienna, the son of a castelian, and at an early age he had # sb position in one of the government Offices, He rewained there uctil it was found out | that he was in the habit of supplying journalists ‘with valuable government information, and so he | ‘was dismissed. He then became a journailst. His BHemies called him at the time a “literary irpe- Booter.” He published in Pra; small paper valled the Latest ews; vhen he livea some time | im Manoheim and Franklort-on-the-Main, and then | envered the editorial department of the Strassburg Dorrespondence, ® paper representing the Bona- | partistic invereats. He went then to Bremen, | Wrote then in iavor of the Duke of | @ugostenvberg, and later devoted his ser | vices ior some time to Prussia. Then he Went to Pressburg, in Hungary, and started a Weekly paper called the Watch on the Danube, | when he fret upheld the Uld Catholic cause and Became a bitter opponent of Rome and Papal in- fllbility. He wrote a pamphlet against Jesuitiem | Wutitled “The Jesuit in the Dress Coat.” about a year ago he began Lo see tie error of his old ways, He spent some time with the Jesuit party in Inns- bruck, and then came to Munici, where he com- menced some four or five months ago the pablica- | Won of 8 weekly sheet called Letters in armor | (Geharniscate Briefe), 12 which he showed bimseif B flery advocate of the Papacy and almost rabid in his attacks on the German Empire. He became in Manico a RECOGRIZED DEFENDER OF CATHOLIO INTRRESTS, faluy equalling Dr. Sigi, of the Vaterland, iu zeal, but excelling Lim in ability. The Letters in Armor, each issue being but a closely printed iour page large octave, bad w short life, The sixteenth umber was confiscated by the police, and after ts- ‘Vulag farewell number on tie following week, and the Berlin police being on bis track, Lang leit this Qngrateiul city jorpartsunknown, Berlin had se- cured copies of the Letters in Armor and had found such villanous insults of the Emperor and Other rulera aad princes by the grace of God therein that it tustituted at once a process against the editor and the printer of the said Lecters, The editor having fled the printer is now leit to fight Out the battle himseif. I called on this gentleman Yesterday siternoon, for I had heard that he (Herr Soteur, So, Dear, as he is popularly knowo ig Munich) naa pubdiished some pages of the “Revolution von Uben,” and I wished to get possession of them. but [ know tnat he had only published a iew pages before the police mterlerred, and then report said Dr, Juuus Laug | bad carried the manuscript of his mysterious book to Geneva, where he was to have it prinied at his own expense by Messrs.

Dangers of this kind are not mag- inary, but Mive occurred, and will occur under conditions of false security and over confidence, Some years ago the city of Philadelphia was thrown into # panic, not by tae escape of a whoie | menagerie, but by tuat of a singie animal, Nor was this @ wild animal, but one which was believed to be thorougi (ly tamed--the elephant Coiumbus. ‘This celebrated’ beast was one of the most enor. mous that ever visited the United States, and was exhibited in th circus and menagerie m Walnut street, His performances in the ring were excellent, and he was a fa vorite of the public, who had every confidence in hits dociiity and goo’ nature.

General Sherman’s Report to the Secretary of War. THE INDIAN TROUBLES. The Federal Force Too Meagre in Num- bers To Be Efficient. WaAsuINaTon, Nov. 8, 16% General Sherman has submitted his annual re Port to the Secretary of War. It ts dated St Louis, Mo., October 24, and shows the strength of the army acovrdiug tu"the jatest returns received up to October 15, 1874. The total number of em listed men at that date was 25,441. General Sherman say: 1 have uo doubt that by the 1st of January, 1878, the number of enlisted men will ve reduce by ordiuary casualties, discharges and deaths, to @ number limited vy iaw—namely, 26,00), and 1 Venture the expression of opinion that this lnmit furees the compaules to so sinall a standard that the efficiency of the service is greatly im- paired therevy. it ts utterly impossibleto maim. tain the companies at remote stations up to the very small jevai slaudard, because months must necessarily @lapse utter discharges aod deatne before recruits can be sent trom tue general ren desvous, He then rejers to the several military divisions and departments into whieh the country ts divided and to the reports of commanding ofMfcera as to the condition of the troops, the changes that have ocgurred, &¢c, Im regard to the military dive *ton of the South he states:—*since the rendition of the report of the commander thereof, owing to the disturbed condition of civil affairs there and the coastent requisitions of the civil officers for mitary help, the Thirteenth injantry has beep ordered to New Orleans, and six companies of the Seventh cavalry have also been ordered to the Division of the South irom the Department of Dakota, These troops, together with what were previously on duty there, are deemed amply adequa’e to the necessity.” Referring to the mill tury Div sion of the Missouri, commanded by Liew tenant General P. 11. Sheridap, he says, thts impor tant division embraces substantially al the ter ritory cast of the Rocky Mountatns to the Missis sipol River and east, inclading the States of Iill- noig and Minnesota, Within this immense area are grouped wost of the indian tribes who are in @ trausition stave from savage barbarism to a con- dition of comparative civilization, It is within this area that there has been aud must continue tor years to come that contact of the frontier seb | ters with the aboriginal savage, resulting in A CHRONIC STATE OF Wak.

In regard to the Miltary Division of the Pacific, come posed of the departments oJ Caliiornta, Colum! and Arizona, he says these departments ai luckily #0 remote irom headquarters, that to the ofiicers on the spot is ieit the supreme control of ali tne detal.s, and the c msequence is, the utmost harmony 01 action and economy of administration, Ihave not the least doubt that to General Sco fleld’s judicious supervision» and the prompt action of General Jef. C. Davis in Oregon last spring we are indebted to a peaceful solution of What, for a time, threatened to be @ war with the Shoshones and’ Snake Indians. Also General Crooke, being armea with 1ull euthority and bat hittle complicated with civil agents and their ad- ministration, has muintamed an almost umnter rupted peace iu that most dificult country, art zona.

Lenclose the reports of ail these orficers and re- fer totaem with pride as samples of miiitary literature, clear and concise in the statemenc of facts and demonstrating that the small army of the Lnited States, called a peace establishment, it the hardest worked body of men tn this or an) | Country. ‘The discipline and behavior of the offi. | cers and men have been worthy of ull praise, an } whether empwyed ou the extreme aud distant frontier or in aiaing the civil ofiicers in the exe- cution of civil processes, have been @ model for the imitation of all good men. In regard to the removal of bis beadquarsers ta St. Louis, he says:—“l am prepared to execute | any auties that may be devolved on me by proper authority. Here am centrally located, and, shouid occasion arise, | can personally proceed to any point Of tuis Continent where my services are needed.” SHESIDAN'S REPORT. Paget General Sheridan, in his annual re- oft, says within the iimits of his command (the ilitary Division of tue Missouri), there are sevgnty-six established posts aud camps, risoued by eigut regiments of cavalry, seven’ Yeg.wents of intaniry and a smali detachment engineer troops, aggreguting at the last official | report 17,819 cowmuiasoned officers and enlisted meu. He says, to protect tne irontier from depre- dating bands of Indians, to assist the Department of the Interior to maintain its authority in the various | Indian reservations, to explore and survey un. kuown territory, to aid the civil autuori io eniorcing the iaws and maintaining peace in re- mote districts, to escurt national boundary, State and territorial survenng parties; to protect and detend the advanced lines of railway in the far West, and, in fact, to do everything within our power to jorward the advanciug wave of civiliga- tion on our frontier, and at the sime time to ki within the limita of the appropriation, bas the energies of both the commanding generals their sabordinates throughout the whole division aud, taking into consideration the smail numbel Of troops, the great extent of territory covered by tuetr operations aud the amount of money appro priated by Cougress to cover the expenditures, they have succeeded as well as could be expected. Relerring to THE BLACK BILLS EXPEDITION, under Colonel Caster, he says:— The reconnoissance was successful. The country of the Black Hills was jound to’ ogni ood. tim! conaiderable good soll at hi ititudes, an xbandant supply of good water and grass, some gold was (ound near Haraey’s Pet bat of | 1t8 abundance there Is at present no reilable in- sormatiou. sufficient time could not be given an expeaition such a8 that of Colonel Custer’s prospect and determine its quantity. General beridan again recommends the estab Ushrient of a large military post in the Black Hills county. He reviews at some length the In. diau troubi’s in his department, particulars of which have heretofore been published, In regard to the operations of Colonel Miles, Lieutenant Colonel Davidson, Lieutenant Colunel Buell aud Ala,or Price, lie says it is boped that the very best results which could be expected will be accome lished, and that we May settle the Indian ques- jon orevcr, 80 Jar as the Kiowas, Comanches aad Cueyennes in the Southwest are concerned, CAUSES OF THE INDIAN TROUBLES, I respectfully dufer with General Pope as to the chiel causes oi these Indian trouvies and attribute them to the immunity with which the tribes have bcen treated.
