Prlnce Napoleon as the only man to keen

asked MS opinion, that he believed him to

no longer. But the most interesting part
OF Marshal MacMahon's evidence was that
IN which he completely exonerated the
Emperor OF all the" responsibility for the
march to Sedan, as for all movements
undertaken since his resignation. Admiral
Julien De Ia Graviere, who stuck by the
Empress to the last, was completely over
come by emotion when he told how she
had protested against the Emperor's return
to Paris, and had read aloud q telegram
Which she had just received announcing a
great victory at Rezonville. N. Magne de-
posed to General Trochu's declaration that
he was ready "to die for the dynasty"
and NJ. Rouher had been since told by the
Empress that he had pledged his faith to
her as g. Breton, a Catholic, and o SOL |
der." After the speeches of NJ. Allou for
the prosecution, and M. Lachaud for the |
defence, General Trochu addressed the |
Court, repudiating the imputation of con-
splracy against the Empire, and resting his
case on the fact that, after the Empress
departure, the defence of the Legislative
Body was impossible. The verdict was a
curious one. The defendants were nc
Quilted on the charge oflibel, but con victed
OF an outrage against public functionary.
That is, the jury found the charges iusti-
fed, but considered the terms in which
they were couched abusive. Each of. the
defendants was sentenced to one months
imprisonment and fine of 5000 francs
General Trochu's failure to perform impos
sibilities with the material he had at his
command has made him one of the most
unpopular men in France, and there cannot
be the slightest doubt that he talked n
great deal too much for man who-with
out any fault of his own-could do SO lit.

Letter from Washington

DEAR FREEMAN The most interesting
discussion Of the week was that ID the House
I over the case of DR.. 4ouard "a gentleman
who for fifty years or more has resided in a
foreign country with no intention OF return
ing here, but who on being imprisoned by
the Spanish authorities as a Cuban insurrcc
ZIONIST, cries out that he is an American cti-
zen, and entitled to the protection of this
government. Gen. Banks reported from the
Foreign Affairs Committee resolution with
whereas DR.. John Emilio Houard is an
American citizen, and a be it resolved that
the President be requested 70 demand his
unconditional release.
In cases like this the orators who are. the
most sensitive for our national honor, and
who are always for indicating it with FIRE
and blood, do not consider it necessary to
spend much labor on the preliminary question
whether the national honor IS involved Mr..
/ Voorhees, is of this class. He was indig-
nantly eloquent against our foreign policy
=. the most contemplate, pu-illanimous
and cowardly Of any first class power in the
world and he was DESTROYS Of pulling the
nose of Spain and bringing on war at the
shortest notice, although he thinks our
government has sold all its arms to France.
The dense ignorance Of the House as to the
facts and the law of the case was somewhat
removed by Mr. Willard and Mr.. Poland
who together occupied an hour IN opposition
to the general current of denuncia ton and
warlke defamation. That DR.. Houard had
no right to claim American citizenship was
made clear to many who had not thought OF
doubling It before. But, after an amend
ment OF Mr. Bingham, kindly providing that
part of the question shall be left with the
executive where it all belongs, the resolution
was passed
1t makes one tremble to think what would
become of us all were the management of
our foreign relations entrusted for ten years
TO that House under the direction of it's
present chairman Of foreign affairs. We
should have as many wars as we now have
investigating committees, and on pretextS
not half as good as that used By Napoleon
Ill. against Prussia. No one would be able
to tell what our foreign policy was or was to
