The daily phoenix. [volume] (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, 1872-10-09

A Paris correspondent of the hide
pendence Beige writes to that journal
some interesting facts connected with the
coming trial of Marshal Bazaine, who is
to be arraigned on the serious charge OF
surrendering Metz to the Germans un-
der suspicious circumstances. All the
versions connected with this case extant
unite in inducing the belief that this
high officer of the army under the ex.
empire is about to be placed in q posi-
ton so serious as to place his life in
jeopardy. It is stated in Paris, among
other things, that, crushed by the evi.
dence that will be adduced, Bazaine will
not be able to refute the charge that he
had received. in ample time for compli-
ance, the order Of junction with Marshal
McMahon-an order which he should
have carried out at all hazards. The
bitterness that prevails in France against
Bazaine and other Generals of his class,
the creatures Of the empire, is due to
tho belief-wcll founded on facts-that
they became npathetic in the service Of
France from the time that the Govern
ment of Napoleon ceased to exist. The
popular feeling is that death should be
tho portion Of these men, and it is this
conclusion that stares Bazaine in the
face, should the allegations whispered
about him prove true.

WoMAN's FIDRLrTY-In the wars of
the petty princes of Germany, Duke
Guelf, being hard pressed by his rival,
shut himself up in Weinburg. This was
in the year 114O. After protracted
siege, that garrison capitulated, on the
condition that all the women should be
allowed to depart. taking with them as
much of their property as they could
carry. The terms OF surrender having
been signed, the gates were opened, and
to the great surprise of the besiegers,
the Duchess appeared, bearing her hus-
band on her shoulders, and followed by
all the women of the city similarly laden.
The hill they crossed is still called IVei.

Strange - IL may seem, Thursday las, va.
the nr'' Fourth Of July ever witnessed by the
city Of huntinEtss. add IL was celebrated in
quiet peacsable. sober, and dignised manner
oy soodiy portion Of her citizens.
AT m early hour in the morning the peopls
were aroused from their siumbers by the ,ound
OF artillery, and the American Gag wa. proud.
~ unfurled on Third Avenue, where In. p.o,i.
no most love to congregate. In the evening n
'a' pole was raised, and the Gag run up amid
mo nnng Of cannon and the shouts Of the az.
ssmbled throng. Patriotism soon began to
warm up in the bosoms of the people. and ora-
tors became as plenty as blackberries. On.
after another Of the brave and chivairou, citi.
tens we're called, who. in an able and eloouept
manner addressed the assembled multitude In
their entire satisfaotion. Tho speakers were:
oap'ain Parsons, Majsr Martin, Captain Burke,
MAJOR Do"ner, DIR. Chase, DIR. Campbell, Cap.
tain Wallace and Captain woods.
After the speaking the meeting adjourned in
the most perfect harm, ny, all seeming to feel
thst 1t was good to DO there. and not a single
incident having occurred during the day. ESQ
TAR as We know.) that was in anywise ealculs.
ted to mar the general harmony that prev allied.
The efsrt that has boon made heretofore In
create an Impression abroad that there still
exists feeling Of hostility to tho American
nag In this city, we believe to DO unfounded.
because We have never witnessed more perfect
anan'mity Of sentiment and feeling, in regard
TO "tho star-sPanslod Banner" than wa.
manifested on that occasion.
So far We have been able to discover. the
most perfect harmony and kind feeling exist,
among the citizens generally, and the few ex-
eePtions that may be to the general rule wo'd
probably aim to create discord and strife in any
other community, we're they to migrate from
Huntington.

people. Thor prompt enactment after Inc
holidays will go far towards making tne
present Legislature, in the public estima-
ton, worthy Of confidence.
The behavior OF the members OF the Gene
raj Assembly has been comparatively good.
Only one personal difficulty took place on
the floor OF the House, and that had no
worse consequence than apsir OF bloody
noses. Bribery was confined 70 the senate

they will continue to do their spiriting gent
". A Claude Duval, who smiles while ne
steals, and, upon occasion, dances amlnue'
with the fair dame whose watches rings
fill his hungry pocket, is more palataDle
than the common foot-pad who salutes Will

Taking into consideration the good and
the bad. what is done and Is left undone, We
feel that we have reason to expect that The
