THE SUPPOSED BURIED ALIVE. The
body of Mrs. Eddice f. Perkins was
again encoffined, yesterday. and recon-
signed to the tomb in West street GENE
terry. As we stated, in our last issue,
DR.. Allen, after applying all medical and
scientific tests, Tuesday afternoon, was
satisfied beyond doubt, and so announced
to the family, that life was extinct. In
order that there might be no narrowing
doubt and uncertainties hereafter,
he advised, and the family decided to
retain the body unburied until such time
as marked stages of dissolution should
present themselves. The body was, ac-
cordingly retained and carefully watched
through the night of Tuesday and until
early Wednesday morning. During the
forenoon of yesterday, however, rapid
change took place in her condition, so
that it was apparent to even the most
casual observer that life had been for
some time extinct Preparations Were
accordingly made for her re-burial and
the body consigned TO the tomb as stated.

CoNrRAsrA, Navarro, April "a, 1873.
The morning after my arrival ct San Sebastian
was ushered in by most brilliant sun, that
brought In magnificent relief all the picturesque
features OF the romantic scene before me. The
rocky promontory, that juts out into the sea and
forms one side OF the bay on which the town is
built. was covered with oaks and beeches that had
just burst their buds and embowered the remains
of the cid citadel on the top; the sea
was da4zlingly blue, and rippled soft
y on the white sandy beach along
which the neat little villas Of the San Sebastian
xoute rolee lie scattered and reflected in tremulous
patches OF white In the lmpid flood below while
stately Sehoras, in oil the dignity OF black lace
wells and accompanied by their caoaJer0s saun
tered calmly along. Altogether the whole scene
put me In mind Of Heine's song "Im Wunder-
schUnen Monat Mai" !, too, felt the warm Spring
in my veins and had made up my mind
to pass the day in San Sebastian, when,
on returning to my hotel for break
fast, heard that Dorregaray was advancing
toward the frontier and intended attacking Ofate,
q thriving, wel-todo town on the frontier Of the
provinces OF Alava and Guipascoa. The scent OF
battle at once routed all my tender Spring feelings,
and within an hour and half was en- route for
Ohate, where l arrived on the evening Of the 18th
Of April. The next day was up betimes and at
once set out to reconnoltre the position OF
the town and its defences. 1t lies at the
base Of range Of high hills, toward which there
runs the promenade Of the Ofatese, terminating in
q rather narrow road leading up the hill to small
chapel on the left Townwards, the promenade
runs into broadish street that leads to o square
and opens eut onto the Town Hail. that forms one
side OF the square. On the right corner Of the Hall
there is large house called the Palace of Carlos
Quinto; the lett short cssldesac leads from the
main street about twenty PAGES from the Hall.

BAYoNHE, May %.
After leaving Salvatierra we arrived without any
incident at vittoria where was introduced 70
General Gonzalez, and still allowed to remain on
parole as my passport had not yet been returned
from Madrid. 1t was expected that General Nouvi-
las, the new Minister OF War, who intended coming
to vittoria, would bring IL with him and decide AZ
to what was TO be done with me. SIX days elapsed,
and as was beginning to get tired OF my position,

and shortly explaining the circumstances. The
same day Nouvilas arrived with two batallions Of
infantry and the usual complement OF artillery and
cavalry. In the evening went 10 the house OF an
Englishman, Mr.. Thomas Rosser, director OF
the gas works AT vittora, and was just
sitting down to supper with him when
the commissioner OF Police made his appear

by all his men, who adore him. Such were the two
persons who, with their forces, sweed our ranks
to the number OF about four thousand men, all
well armed
But before arrangements could be made for these
forces to work In harmony disagreeabe duty had
to be performed 1t will be remembered that the cure
OF Santa Cruz having been accused OF disobedience
and wanton cruelty, had been condemned to death
by Don Carlos, and that Lissaraga had been en-
trusted with the execution OF this order. Now,
although Lissaraga had been the General
whom the cure was supposed specially to have
dsobeyed, certain facts came to his ear which led
him to believe that the cure had been deceived,
and consequently he decided to take no steps
personally in the matter, but to refer the question
to court martial. This court martial was held on
Saturday evening, and by my request was allowed
to be present-a favor which would scarcely have
been granted to any one but correspondents OF
the HERALD.
At six p. M. the proceedings commenced.
THE ACCUSATION AGAINST THE Ex-PRIEsT
was that he had shot woman and old
peasant without sufficient cause; that he had
been guilty OF dsobeying certain specific orders,
and, finally, had used language dtsrespectful to hts

Carlos. His answer to the first charge / give

was discovered one evening by one Of my men on

that he intended marching to depot that same
