BAZETLLKs. = The conduct Of the Bavarian
troops in burning the town OF Bazeilles on the
day OF the battle Of Sedan Is the subject OF
severe comment. The Duke de FitIjames,
whose statements, IL is alleged, are confirmed
by the correspondent of the English Liberal
Journals, says that when the Germans were ad-
yancing on Bazeilles the inhabitants put on
their National Guards uniforms and eht with
the French army. The French were driven back
into Bazeilles, and the Bavarians formed a cir
Gle around the village and tet IL on fire. A large
number OF perSons who had taken refuge in the
cellars were burned alive, and out OF a pop
ulatlon OF 2,eO0 only 800 were saved. IL IL as
serted that the Bavarians drove the women and
children back into the flames, and shot those who
succeeded in breaking through. The stmos-
phere around the village, tt ts rer rorted, n per
vsded with smell Of charred flesh, and tbe char
red bodies OF the inhabitants are lying around
