Colonel Biistow gives it as 869 officers and 22,657 men; total 23,526. 
Austrian Casualties . 
The following statement is compiled and arranged from a paragraph in 
the “Times” (6th May, 1867), which was extracted from the 13th Annual 
report of the Statistical Commission of Austria. The results refer to the 
“ War with Prussia,” and perhaps include the casualties in the Austrian 
Contingent present in the operations on the Maine, but these would be too 
small to make much difference in the numbers belonging to Bohemia.

It will be observed that the general average of officers killed and wounded 
is 131 per thousand, whilst that of the men is only 60 : on the other hand 
the proportion of men missing is just double that of the officers* It is to 
be expected that officers, whose duty it is to lead, should fall in greater 
proportion than men, but where the difference is strongly marked it is a 
certain proof that they were not cordially supported. Exact statistics on 
this point can only be produced from accurate returns of the officers and 
men present under fire, but general conclusions may be drawn by comparing 
the losses with the proportionate number of officers as shown by the 
organization. Colonel Biistow states that the loss among the Prussian 
officers, thus computed, was little, if anything, in excess of that of the 
men.
