REJECTION OF BIsMaRCk's TERMS. SPEECH
OF GEN. TRoCUT


LONDON, Sept. 26.-On the return of
Favre from the Kings head quarters a
NEE ting of the Committee Of defence
was held. When Favre had read Biz.
marck's propositions, Gen. Trochu rose
and in few concise sentences called
Tor a rejection instant and uncondition-
al OF the propositions which he describ-
ed as insulting. He then said: Il
should condemn hopeless contest both
as citizen and as a soldier. No man
has right to recommend suicide To
nation any more than to a man. But
France is in no such emergency. The
Capital is able to resist, and with the
fall of the Capital the Departments will
rise. Winter is fast approaching, and
the armies Of the invader already harass-
ed and suffering, will then be exposed
to the greatest want aud misery. From
all parts OF the country the Republic is
warmly endorsed and accepted. New
armies are forming in the Loire and at
Lyons All OF these brave Frenchmen
mastering In arms for the defence of
the nation, would disown our authority
were We TO humiliate France by such
surrender as Prussia now demands of
Us. The great cities of France would
not abide by our capitulation. The tri
ais OF this cruel war, made a war of
necessity by implacable invaders, will
restore the manhood and elevate the
spirit of the French people. propose

would be satisfactorily arranged so far
as the officer was concerned. Hender-
son and Summerfeld then went out for
Banyon, leaving Feeney standing at Miss
Thompson's door. The moment Hen
derson and Summerfeld had disap-
peared, Feeney burst open the door
and grasped Miss Thompson by the arm,
telling her in very brutal manner to
come along with him. Just at that mo-
ment one of the members of the
troupe was coming off the stage. He
took in the situation, and taking the Off
Ger by the collar, relieved Miss Thomp-
son, who Immediately went into another
dressing.room. All that happened to
Feeney was, he was showed into the room
vacated by Miss Thompson.
Immediately afterward Justices Ban
yon and Summerfeld and Henderson
appeared on the scene. The matter was
explained by Miss Thompson to His
Honor, and he took her recognizance for
800 for her appearance at the Police
Court to-day Mr.. Feeney quietly
skulked away.
Meanwhile, one of her party to whom
Miss Thompson had pointed out her fe-
male prosecutor, discovered her in the
audience. A charge of assault was
made out, an officer was sent for, and in
a few minutes Miss Ellen A. Griffin was
en- route for the Armory.
Two hours later, Miss Thompson re-
ceived note from Miss Griffin, begging
that she might be released from the Arm
ory, as she had no desire to stay there all
which, however, she did.

to the crowd on the right, and begged
them to forgive him as he hoped 70 be
forgiven of God As he was tilted for
ward he was answered by a yell OF exc
Grafton, and in two seconds more the
knife had fallen and his head had rolled
into the basket. Next came Alexis, the
brigand accused of having murdered Mr..
Herbert. i watched his demeanor mar
rowly, aud though he did not exhibit the
scornfulness which made him so remark
able at the trial he showed to the last
that he possessed the utmost courage.
Like Costa, he turned to the bystand-
ers and asked them to forgive him, as
they hoped for salvation. They were
awed by the sight they had seen and not
voice replied to Alexis; yet his bright
eye never once quailed, not even at the
sight of his companions headless trunk.
The next two brigands executed-with
one of whom came their confessor-had
been taken before the excursion to Mara
thon. The first of these uttered
piteons cry of horror at the sight below
as his head was being fitted to the block;
he said nothing to the crowd. The sec
ond had to be lifted out of the carriage
by the executioners and as his miserable
emaciated form was stretched at full
length he uttered cry for forgiveness.
The last of those who suffered was Photi;
he, too, had to be lifted out of the car
riage and held by the two men while his
sentence was being read over. He seemed
to suffer great pain, and repeatedly
begged of the executioner to be careful
to avoid hurting his leg. He was at
length adjusted and turned with his face
to the ground, and had scarcely uttered
a moan when the string was pulled, and
the fatal knife fell for the fifth and last
time ~ ' II
