w t ASTORIA. OliEGOS: WEDXESDAYSEl'TEMllEH 0, 1SH2 J.F. IIALLOKA.Y i.i'.SIor The Sedan Celcljrntlon. The anniversary of the surren der at Sedan was celebrated all owr Germany with great rejoicing on the 2d instant. . Thtie wore bon fires, illumination?, brass bunds and'unlimited fo.istin"-. The peo ple were hilatioii and with proud hearts recalled a (lay that will .vr be glorious in the history of thfir country. But is there ical cause for re joicing in Germany over the ie.sults of the Franco-Prussian war? Was the downfall of the French em pire more beneficial Jo Germany than to France? And when the empire fell and Germany contin ued .the war on a crushed people, wresting two provinces and an enormous indenmily from a help less foe, did not German' tax her self more than she gained? Did she not, by thus trampling on the pride of the French, create the conditions that are now gi hiding the life out of her through the cost of keeping always ready lo fight France? Since the war endd in the hu miliation of France and the gloti fi cation of Germany, France has enjoyed continued and great pros perity, while Germany has seen almost continuous hard times. The people of France are contented. Few of them leave their native land for any other country. The German people, oppressed by the enormous burdens of a militaiy government, are emigrating to Ameiica by the hundred thousand. The surrender at Sedan was the dawn of liberty for France, while it ushered in the new era of con solidated despotism for Germany. The republic has grown stronger .every dav during the twelve years of its life. Tt is firmly planted in the affections and confidence of the people. The German empire, which is Bismarck, lives by such means as crush patriotism. The people cannot love oppression. On the -whole, it seems to us that, if the capitulation at Sedan is to be celebrated by a 113- people, the French have most cause for hilarity. The defeat of the empire was the birth of freedom, the dawn of a brighl era. The Sinews of War. Waii is a gloiious but at the same time an expensive game, especial ly In model n times. A good deal has been said of the heroic deo tion of people in. the old limes who turned their chuich-bells and pew ter plates into guns and bullets, but nowadays when a 1,000,000 ship, armed with 100.000 guns each casting a ton weight of shell, with a cartridge of a barrel of gun powder, goes into battle, each of her broadsides represents the year's wages of the average citizen taxed to build and equip her. These fig ures, winch give the cost per round of the ammunition used in the bombardment of Alexandria, are not without interest: Inflexible Four SO ton Kiiiiit Sr7Jo ucnound L. t'.K'.u) Alexandra Two -toii guns at :r. and ten 18-ton puns at S2G.25 z-2,rA) Monarch Four 25-ton ruii:, two vj ,ton guns at Sis and one GJl-ton gnu ati.SS.75.. ."..... 1R1.73 Temeralre Four 23-ton and four is ton sums 2J".c3 Sultan Eight 18-ton and four 12-ton Rns 2.uo Superb Sixteen 18-ton guns 420.x 0 Besides these should be taken into account the eight 0-ton guns on the Penelope, vomiting death and 3.i5 at ever3' discharge, and the C.V-ton gun with which the Bit tern boomed away $8.75 ofthena- valicstimates at each round; to say nothing o the four G4--poundeis hurling small change upon the foe "In packages of IS and 12 shillings. . We are proverbially instructed lo build a bridge of silver for a Hying foe. Tt would be cheaper to do that than to use him as a targalc for rolls of golden coin.
