The CarIist COnundrum.

PARIS, May g. The Legitimist journals
here insist that the battle of Oroquieta was
not decisive of the fate Of the Carlist ris-
ing.
Don Carlos writes on the 9th to the
Duchess of Madrid that his prospects are
excellent; that he could announce good
news, but refains from prudential motives.
The Carlist organs deny that ROda or any
other leader has returned to France and as
sert that the insurrectionary forces are the
masters Of all Biscay and the important
points of Guipuzecoa and hold possession
Of the railway between Miranda and Irun;
that the bands under Castillo and Allegro
are active in the Catalonian provinces and
others are lowering on the borders Of Fer
net and Farragona.
Exit the Don.
MADRID, May S-Evening.-Official dis
patches from the north state that the insur-
gents have disappeared from Guipuzcoa, and
only small band remain in the province
of Saragossa. OF Carlist forces in Ma
varre, 429 have surrendered to the govern
ment and the remainder have disappeared.
The Governor of Pampeluna telegraphs to
the Minister of War that Don Carlos re-
crossed the frontier accompanied only by a
Priest, and is now in Frances.
Presto! Change.
PARIS, May 8.-Evening.-The latest
news received here by the friends Of Don
Carlos is that he has from 1000 to 5000
men in Biscay, well armed and well sup
piled with provisions and munitions. Elio
commands the Carlist forces in Navarro
and Fristany those in Catalonia.

The Marshal of Mexlco and Metz.


PARIS, May S.-Marshal Bazaine sur
rendered himself Tuesday night to stand
trial by courtmartial. In the Assembly to-
day Gen. Chussey moved that the preamble
of the bill constituting the courtmartial be
amended so as to recite that ''this court is
assembled on demand of the commission on
capitulations." The preamble as submit
ted by the government states that the
courtmartial is called by the demand of
Marshal Bazaine. Minister Gen. Cissey
opposed the amendment, but it was unani-
mOusly adopted. 1t is believed that this
vote viii force Gen. Cissey to resign.

Salaries HuvsoIabIe.

Judgment in the case of Jos. A. Ware against
the United States for the claimant. Ware
was Treasury clerk, and his salary was
doclzed $50 for absence by reason of

right to deduct from salaries, and that a
physicians certificate was unnecessary, but
If produced, was conclusive of the duty Of
the Secretary to pay the salary prescribed
by law. The court decided for claimant on
both grounds.

NarriaSe and Death Rate.

The death rate n the married and
unmarried was the subject of 8 paper
recently read by NJ. Bertillou before the
Academy Of Medicine in Paris. The re-
suits are based on statistics derived from
France, Belgium and Holland, and are
as follows. Of married men between the
ages Of p and so, the death rate was
1 per thousand. unmarried IL per thou
sand. widowers - pr thousand. OF
married and unm Arrlei women the rate
was the same, viz, 9 per thousand,
while in dows it was L. In persons
from 81 to 81 the death rate among mar
ried men was IL, the unmarried D, aud
the widowers l9 per thousand. Among
the women il was for the married, IL
for the unmarried, and Is per thousand
Tor the widows. Combining these hg-
ures gives the following result Deaths
among men between the ages OF % and
S5-married l., unmarried ID, widowers
IL: women between the same ages
married II, unmarried 10, widows 81
These figures demonstrate that while 10
the case of men the death rate was the
same throughout the decade for the
married and unmarried, there was a
great fatality among the widowers. We
NAV, therefore, coclude that while the
married state dose not actively improve
the sanitary condition in men, the re-
lapse into the unmarried state is at
tended by q great fatihty
