LOUIS XVII.


who was supposed to have been poisoned
by some person in the Temple at Paris
during the French Revolution, and by
Others to have escaped, was the son of the
unfortunate Louis NNI and Marie An
toinette. 1t was only recently that re-
port was circulating in the papers that a
gentleman of advanced age had died in
March, in St. Petersburg, who was be-
lieved TO have been Louis XVII. He
was the third child of Louis and Maria
Antoinette. His first title was Duke of
Normandy, and he became dauphin by
the death of his elder brother, Louis Jo-
seph, June 4, 1889. He was carefully
educated under the supervision of his
father, and at tho outbreak of the revolu-
ton was beautiful, lively, and intelligent
child, but remarkably impatient and un-
manageable. He was imprisoned in the
Temple with the rest of the royal family
August Is, 1892. After the execution
Of his father, January 2I, 1893, he was
proclaimed King by his uncle, the Count
of Provence, who was then Il refugee in
Germany, and was recognized as King by
most of the Courts of Europe, 10y the
Nendean chiefs, and by the insurgents In
the south of France. These demonstra-
tons, together with several unsuccessful
attempts by the royalists to rescue him
from prison, irritated and alarmed the
revolutionary government, and on July
5, at 10 o'clock at night. the boy was
forcibly taken from his mothers arms,
and, frantic with terror, was carried
screaming to another part of the prison.
Here he was consigned 70 the care of a

NEW ORLEANS.
Court Martial of Maximilian-His
Counsel Fears Repr0ach Ii He. is
Executed.

New ORLEANS, July 10 The
Brownsville Rdnchero, of the 4th, pub
fishes the proceedings of the court
martial that tried Macmillan.
The general court was composed
of Lieutenant Colonel. President,
six Captains, Judge Advocate. Lieut.
Colonel Manuel Asperiaz. The pris-
oners were tried separa tely, each plea
containing the jurisdiction of the
court, and protesting against the re-
fusal of the right to appeal. Maxi
milan was confined to his bed when
the case was called, his being the last.
He was ably defended by Senior Evlio
Ortega, who refuted the charges of
Maximilian's usurpations and cruelty;
said law. of the Sd of October was made
when Maximilian was cheated into
the belief that Juarez had abandoned
the territory, and that one of the ar
ticles of that law was dictated ~ the
French commander-in in chief. He said
that law was only intended as ter
ror, and there never had been petit
ton for pardon but was conceded. He
asked the members of the court, in
the name of civilization, which will
judge of deeds done this day, in de-
fence of the independence of Mexico,
to save the good name of the country
in the eyes of coming generations.
They will applaud the crowning of
the greatest victory by the greatest of
pardons Among the accusations is
one attempting to prolong the war by
the decree of March 1th, and creating
a regency in case Of his death in com
ing battles. -
Jesus Maria Yasqueza, one of Max
.imilian's counsel, closed the argument
as follows: If you condemn him to
death, / am not uneasy about coali-
ton in Europe, or the attitude the
United States may assume towards
this Republic. / have confidence in
the Liberals, but [ fear the universal
reproach that will fall on our country
as an anathema more than the SEN
tence of death, because of the nullity
of the proceedings of this court.

that they would not adopt the princi-
pies of trying here the judgments of
British Courts, as these were matters
which every nation managed for itself,
and ne should be unwilling to allow
any other.nation to decide ON the ac-
ton of an American court against
rebels, who might be subjects of such
Nations; but. as it was simply rese-
luton of reference, he could see NO
objection to it. The resolution was
adopted f
Mr.. Washburne offered RESOLUTION
declaring that the burthen of the Gov
eminent should be in proportion to
the property, and that the exemption
of any ma aterial portion of the wealth
of the country from its due proper
ton is wrong, and should be avoided,
and that to carry out these views right
was to lay bonds of the Government,
which should be given in any future
system of funding bonds.
The House refused to second the
previous question on the adoption of
the resolutions, and they were refer
red to .he Committee on Ways and
Means.
( Barnes asked leave to offer a joint
resolution to reduce the tax on dis
titled spirits from two dollars to sew

vide for the granting of honorable
