The dismal plain of Satory continues to
be soaked with blood. A horrible scene
lately occurred at the execution of two
felOns-Baudoin and Rouillac. Both men

last, they tore the cloths violently off and
pushed the soldiers away. A correspond
ent says the scene was shocking and IN
paralleled. The unhappy wretehes were at
last overpowered by sheer numbers, and
not only blinded but torcibly dashed with
strong cords to the posts. They were shot
almost to pieces, yet, so firmly had they
been tied, that their bodies remained per-
fectly unmoved as they had been placed
Both meu rrdely repulsed the priests who
sought to console them, and both smoked
pipes and sang songs almost to the last.

Judge Kelley, of Pennsylvania.

This is special to the st. Louis RepuJ-

WASHINGTON, August THE admins
tration people here are in a state of great
anxiety about the posi- ion of Judge KEEL
ley, of Philadelphia, in the canvass 1t is
known that for year past Mr.. Kelley has
never disguised his opinion that Grantism
would ruin the Republican party, and in
the last days of the session Of Congress he
pOintedly refused to be driven into corrupt
and unconstitutional attempt to force the
bayOnet act through the House. In the
face of all these facts, the Republicans in
the fourth district of Pennsylvania renom-
mated Mr., Kelley. He was then, and still
is, in Colorado, and has not taken any no
tice of his denomination. He is known to
be in sympathy with Colonel FOrney in the
fight against the corrupt ring that put Hart
ranft in nomination, and in this way is
worrying the GRANTEES beyond expression.
They defer to draw him out, for fear he
will attack the State ticket, and they dare
not threaten to throw him overheard be-
cause he has not accepted their nomination

A Chinese waiter in Paris, named Tsang,
has curious history. He was once IN the
service OF the Chinese Empress, who in
trusted TO him fan of great value, which
she intended to give to her son, the young
man soon to be married. Tsang accident
ally broke the treasure, and was condemned
to be executed, but before the executioner
could draw his sword the willy Celestial
had seized him around the neck and
strangled him. Then dressing himself in
the funetiOnary garments, he got on board
a Marseilles vessel and sailed for sunny
France.

The Springfield Republican says of the
Banks DETECTION:

Banks detection:
Certainly General Banks movement is Of
great importance, not only of itself, bat as
an index and by it's influence upon the
campaign. 1t brings within the possibili-
ties even the carrying of Massachusetts, by
the reformers. With Mr.. Sumner and
General Banks appealing to the people
from the platform, with such a nomination
as Charles Francis Adams for Governor,
and equally high and independent candi-
dates for Congress- it would not be at all
strange for the revolution to overspread
this State, that gave General Grant 10000
majority four years ago.

The Result.

iastSaturiay was u gaily day in Mad
i@onyillo. The Conservative d Democratic
Convention for Monroe and Loudon
counties assembled in the Court House.
and was called to order by +. L. Griffith,
Chajripan Of the Executive Committee.
Permanent organization was soon
effected, and the convention proceeded
to business. The proceedings resulted
IN the nomination Of Hon. Henry A.
ChaMbers as the Conservative Demo-
cratic staadard bearer for Representa-
tive fox the two counties.
Dariug thc day, the friends Of each of
the candidates could be seen standing
around in little squads, talking over the
probable result ofthe convention. Jones'
friends were almost confident that he
would be the nominee, and Chambers
likewise. We never before Witnessed
such wire-pulling as was carried on. On
both sides. Il has been charged that
there existed in Madisonville "a town
click composed of men whom it is i'm
possible to defeat when they "sct their
heads" Whether this lie so or not, it
is a fixed fact that there is an influence
there impossible to overcome, or
change, and If others cannot carry out
their schemes, they cry out, the Mad
isonville click" done it. They are re-
sponsible, &c. This should not be done.
We do not believe there is such an or.
ganization there who would dare at
tempt to deceive, o practice o fraud
upon the people Of the county. II the
Democrats Of Madisonyilie ha~yeinfuencc
sufficient over other portions Of the
county to carry their point. it only shows
that they arc alive to their interests, and
others should ondcayor TO conc IN to
the mark and use their influence for
good, and thereby defeat their oppo,
ncnts, and carry ont their designs.
While there is some dissatisfaction
among Capt. Jones friends, on account
of his defeat, we believe that Cent.
Chambers will be supported heartily by
the friends of the former. Capt. Joncs

Gen. Humphrey Marshall.

The telegraph yesterday afternoon
brought the intelligence that Gen. Hum
phrey Marshall died on Thursday night
last at Louisville, of pneumonia. This
distinguished Kentuckian was the son
of John J. Marshall, an eminent jurist
Of the same State, brother Of James Bir-
ney Marshall, a distinguished poet and
journalist, and a grandson OF James
Birney, the first abolition candidate for
the presidency. He graduated with
honor at West Point, and commanded
a Kentucky regiment in the Mexican
war. Gen. Marshall was prominent
as lawyer and politician, served two
terms in Congress, and was appointed
Minister to China during the admins
tration of President Fillmore. During
our late civil war Gen. Marshall COM
manded a brigade in the Confederate
army. His command was raised in East
Kentucky. Gen. Marshall was for some
time in charge Of the Department of
Northwest Virginia and East Ken
lucky. When the war closed, he took
up his residence in the city, for the
purpose of practicing his profession.
From New Orleans he removed to
Washington, ID. c., and from there to
Louisville, Ky, where he remained
until his death. Gen. Humphrey Mar
shall was man of sterling honor, integ-
rity, and genial, whole-souled gentle
man. AS an evidence of the talent
which distinguishes this family, we
will state that one of the daughters of
Gen. Marshall has written two or three
books with considerable ability, and she
has since taken a prominent position
among the talented women Of Ameri-
pa-N o. PicuuttJ1e
