THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON. April 20, 1873.
The exciting topic Of conversation In Washing
ton to-day was the news from the Modoc war;
General Sherman expected General Schoield
would send an Official despatch. but at midnight
he ;Ihad received no other information than
came as press dispatches. The difference in time
between this point and San Francisco, the General
Military Division of the Pacific an opportunity to
confirm the dispatches received by the courier re-
ported to have arrived at Yreka this morning.
When General schoheld telegraphed yesterday that
the latest news from General Gillem was that the
cavalry thus disnounted on account or thu cpl
zooty, and that Captain Mendenhal OF the
Fourth artillery mounted as cavalry, would REIN
force General Gillem, when the fight would be re-
newed. He confidently expected that the Modoc
campaign would be speedily brought to an end.
With all the clrcumstantIal reports OF most dis
astrous defeat to the reconnoitrng party under
Captain Thomas, he still hoped that favorable
news would come OF general engagement; but
the details mp to late hour only confirm what was
briefly announced by the report OF tnls mornings

CAPTAIN THOMAS
was q son OF General Lorenzo Thomas, formerly
Adjutsnt General OF the Army and whom President
Johnson designated to act as Secretary Of War
al interim during the misunderstanding
between himself and Secretary Stanton.
He was FOR some time stationed at
Fort washington, ten miles below this city. His
popularity and general acquatnsances here Invested
the news OF his death and his gallant comrades,
with more than ordinarily interest.

The following special despatch to the
HERALD has been received from our CORE
spondent in the British metropolis
LONDON, April 30, 1873
The following is true copy Of the last will
and testament of Charles Louis Bonaparte,
his late Majesty Napoleon III, under which
letters of administration are now applied for
after legal registry.
THE PROPERTY AND DEBTS.
The estate of the deceased is sworn under
one hundred and twenty thousand pounds ster-
ling, and the gross sum is subject to claims
which will reduce it by half the amount.
THE WILL.
The legal instrument reads thus This is
my will. commend my son and my wife to
the high authorities of the State, to the
people and army. The Empress Eugene
possesses all the qualities requisite for capably
conducting the regency, and my son displays
q disposition and judgment which will
render him worthy of his high destinies.
Let him never forget the motto of the head
Of our family, Everything for the French
people" Let him fix on his mind the writ
ings of the prisoner OF st. Helena; let him
study the Emperor's deeds and correspond
ence; and, finally, let him remember, when
circumstances permit, that the cause of the
peoples is the cause of France. Power is
heavy burden, because one cannot always do
all the good one could wish, and because con-
temporaries seldom render justice, 80 that, in
order to fulfil ones mission, one must have
faith in and conscientiously appreciate his
duty. It is necessary to consider that from
heaven above those whom you have loved re-
gard and protect you. 1t is the soul of my
Ilustrious uncle that has always inspired and
sustained me. The like will apply to my son,
for he will always be worthy Of his name.
leave to the Empress all my private prop
erty. wish at the majority Of my son she
shall live at the Elysee and Biarritz. I trust
that my memory will be dear to her, and that
after my death she will forget whatever un-
happiness may have caused her.
With regard to my son, let him keep as
Alisman the seal wore attached to my watch,
and which comes from my mother. Let him
carefully preserve everything that comes to
me from the Emperor my uncle, and let him
be convinced that my heart and my soul re-
main with him.
Imake no mention of my faithful servants.
7 am convinced that the Empress and my son
win never abandon them.
I shall die in the Catholic, Apostolic and
Roman religion, which my son will always
honor by his piety.
