Ii is pleasant not to find anything
in TO- days dispatches confirming the
horrible story Of the massacre Of
German prisoners at Strasbourg, and
the row of lnpaled heads on the
parapet of that fortress, and until
the story is very explicitly con-
hrmed we shall prefer to disbe-
lleve il altogether. No doubt. the
people In that beleagured city have
been driven to terrible straits, the
garrison ID doubtless desperate and
relentless, but they are surely not "a
mad as TO inaugurate reign Of terror

CORY heads of their Comrades who

oners of war. IF the Sfras-
bourghexs have slaughtered the Saw.
ons captured In the s0rtte the other
day they surely ought to BE- briqht
enough TO conceal their crime from
the men IN the parallels outside, es
pecially since their own rations are
growing short and their water supply
cut of. Such an outrage would be
most keenly felt By Prussia, and with
her stern, lnhexible disposition, aud
the immense opportunities she now

tnat the crime OF the Strasbourg gar
