A. contemporary paper has recently drawn .a.ttention, on the occasion of the Kaiser's attendance at the StVillS manoe- uvres, to the consid.erable number of for- eign names In the Swiss army list. Far more remarkable, however, is the number of Scottish namee in the Prussian, and more especially in the Deitch army. The exploit of Campbell of Craingnish, of the Bismarck Cuirassiers, who captured a French eagle in tho cavalry charge at Mars -la -Tour, in the Franco-Prussian war, is well known to military fame. It is not so generally known that perhaps the znajority of the °Moors of the Dutch army are of Scotch descent and pawtym- reviltssons and "..klacclotiald$!, Patti - sons a,ntl''Grahanis bristle in the army list. It is even more remarkable that these Scotch patronymics are practically confined to the army. The training of the Thirty and the Seven Years' ,vars seems almost to have ms,de of them a Dutch fighting elan.
