THE CHATTANOOGA HORROR.
Verdict Of the COrOner's Jury-Hanged
by Masked Parry.

rom the Chattanooga Times.
The coroner's jury, as we learn from
Squire Blackman, who held the inquest,
succeeded in eliciting some additional
facts in the hanging case, which are
about as follows: The victims name
was Elbridge Merrill. He had been
working, as before stated, for Mrs. Evans
for a"out three years, and had borne a
good character for sobriety and industry
during that time, but lately had been
cohabiting with a low white woman
commonly known as Dinkn Norris.
He was probably found at shanty oc-
cupied by "Dink," near the scene
OF the hanging, induced to go
to saloon in the neighborhood,
where he was piled with drugged whisky
aud taken to the crib in an insensible
state and hanged, as heretofore described.
"Dink swore to portion of these facts,
aud further testified that four men came
to her shanty in the night, none of
whom she knew, and took her to the
crib and showed her Merrill's dead
body. She said the men were not
masked, but she did not know them.
She afterward said privately that had
she known them she would not dare t.
tell their names, because they would be
certain to kill her if she did. 1t was the
unanimous opinion of the jury that
deceased came to his death by the hands
of some persons unknown, and a YER
dict to that effect was prepared, but up
to last night was withheld, the
justice and jury hoping that some
thing might come to light that
would lead to the arrest of the guilty
parties Dink Norris's testimony was
corroborated in some particulars, which
led the jury to credit the most of her
tale. For instance, she swore that the
men made her call a certain other wo-
man up, by rapping on the door, and
also that they shot at her after showing
her Merrill's body. This the other wo-
man corroborated, so far as calling her
up was concerned, and swore also that
she heard a gun or pistol fired shortly
after "Dink" was at her door, and the
sound seemed to come from the direction
Of the point where Merrill was hanged,
and that at the same moment Of the
firing she heard a scream. This woman
saw some men apparently waiting for
"Dink" while the latter was at her door,
but knew none Of them.

SHIPWRECK.
Wreck Of the Ocean Steamer Missouri
Particulars by Survivor.

NEW ORLEANS, October 16.-The
steamship Liberty has arrived, bringing
the passengers and a portion Of the crew
of the wrecked steamer Missouri, from
| Key West. Captain John :. Simpson,
of Baltimore, who was passenger on
the Missouri, makes the following state
ment:
I'VE left Liverpool on the eleventh OF
September, having had fine weather the
entire passage. On the evening of the
first instant, about half-past four o'clock,
the weather being mild and the sea as
smooth as a sheet OF glass, the ship
struck on Gingerbread Crown, one OF
the reefs off Bemini. There was no
apparent cause for the ship being
wrecked at that time, and believe that
it was through the carelessness or ig-
norance of the officers in charge. There
was not an officer on deck at the
time of the disaster; nobody was in
charge of the crew on deek. After we
struck boats were lowered and the
cargo thrown overheard. All of the
passengers suffered greatly from the loss
OF their baggage. The first boat was
lowered about nine o'clock in the even
ing, the third mate in charge, with
HCAGOlS III III
self. The captain and mate, each TAX
ing a boat, left the ship about three
o'clock in the morning, second instant.
After landing on the island the captain
sent the second mate 10 look after the
cargo. In returning to the vessel
in wrecking the schooner 1.-TWO Broth
ers," they were caught in a squall, and
sll on board were lost. The ship broke
in two aft of the forward hatch, and Just
after striking the reef the captain and
first-mate went to Nassau and succeeded
in procuring the British gunboat
''Cherub," to transport the passengers
and crew to Key West, the captain and
first-Officer returning to Nassau to stand
an Investigation by the British COM
mission, in regard to the loss Of the ves-
sci. The passengers speak in the high
est terms of the treatment received from
Lieutenant-CO Commander Francis c. K.
Baker, of the British gunbOat "Cherub, 4"
and his executive officer, Lieutenant
Harry G. Hatch.

THE Chattanooga Times tells the fac S
in regard to the untimely death OF the
negro man, Merrill, whose body was,
few days since, found dangling from q
tree. He was hanged by party Of
masked men, as testified to by his
white paramOur-by party who after
ward tried to shoot her, proving cOnelus-
lively that they regarded the miscegen-
sting pair as unworthy to live there
abouts. Upon close Investigation this
viii be found to be the inspiring cause
of an outrage we hope the authorities OF
Hamilton county will succeed in re-
dressing.

BAZAINE.
Progress OF His Trial-COntinuatiOn
Of the Examination OF the
Marshal.

PARIS, October 15.-The trial of Mar
shal Bazaine resumed to-day; in reply TO
g question asked by the president of the
court, relative to August 26th, when an
advance upon Thionville was ordered,
and afterward was relinquished, the
marshal stated that at that time, he had
only ninety thousand men available for
serS ice. The Duke D'Aumale said
the calling of the council-of-war August
25th. by Bazsine, had not lessened the
marshals' responsibility. He asked
why the council had not been
informed of the march Of Marshal Mac
Mahon to his assistance. Bazsine de-
clsred that, in support Of General Bay
er's evidence to the contrary, he had in
formed the council of this movement of
MacMahon, and also that he had given
the necessary orders for provisioning
Metz. He blamed his subordinates for
not carrying out their orders upon
this point. The Duke D'Au-
male said that the commander
of the garrison was responsible
for the taking of all needful precaution-
ary measures during the seige. Mar
shal Bazaine said that on hearing the
Left resolution in Paris, he intended to
resign command. He asserted that he
received Regnier Immediately on his
arrival at Metz. He had two interviews
with Regnier. The marshal denied hav-
ing informed Regnier that two letters
had passed between himself and Prince
frederick Charles, and could not state
the provisions of these letters Of which
he himself was unaware. He con-
sidered that the signature which he gave
Regnier was unimportant, not thinking
of the use to which it might be applied
in relation to Bourlox's journey. The
marshal considered that to conclude an
arrnistice would be Of advantage to the
country and army. 1t was necessary
for the furtherance of that object to COM
municate with Empress Eugenie, be-
tween whom and the German govern
ment he then thought an understand
| ing existed. He explained that the in
stallation of separate government was
what was meant by public order, men,
toned in his proclamation. Bazaine
appeared very much downcast in q
manner and less confident in tone dur
ing his examination to-day. At the
conclusion Of the session the court ad-
journed until Friday.
