Washington on Tuesday. to see what
prospect'there was aos action BY Con::
gress upon the Recommendations of the
H9stmaster.G General in regard to 'estab-

turned to New York since, convinced.
according to o correspondent Of the
New York Tribune. that the sentiment
OF Congress is either 80 much averse to
this scheme, or members are so little in
terested in it, that there is no necessity
Tor him to remain there.
There is one little incident Of the
Spanish troubles which has been gene
rally overlooked, but which is not uu-
worthy of remembrance. Over 50, 900
was raised by the Havanese as testi-
monial to the commander of the lorna
do. He declines to accept It, and re-
quested the promoters TO suspend the
subscription because he thought it ssnot
an honoribnt m insult to those whose
lot ID had been to do service to their
countsy!D Perhaps this reply helped to
incensa our President little.

Husbandry for Massao aohusetts was or.

It's stated that the growth Of the order
in Massachusetts affords much satisfao-

Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1873-12-11

The closing scene in the trial Of Mar
shaI Bazaine was 8 sad and impressive
one, ending, as our dispatches show, in
an unanimous judgment of the court
condemning the distinguished SOL
der to death, but coupling the
sentence with an unanimous recon-
mendatiOn to mercy. This we
deem an unfortunate thing for
France, and if the sentence is executed,
will fall on the scutcheOn Of the young
republic something like the shadow
Of a great crime. The pathetic ap-
peal of the marshal's counsel to
the tribunal charged with the duty
Of investigating the alleged crime OF
treason, was honorable alike to him
and to his illustriOus client, and
the grand declaration of the brave
old marshal, before his assembled fel-
gov-officers, that he had served his cOun.
try forty-two years, and that he had
in his heart but two words-"Frsnce'
and "HonOr''-will be remem'
bered among the such expressions as the
diving ute d'ormeew Of the first
Napoleon. We cannot believe Marshal
BazaIne deserving Of the sentence
pronounced by his judges yesterday
and we sincerely hope that not only
will the recommendation to mercy be
heard, but result in the full pardon and
restoration to rank of as gallant ar
officer as ever fought for France, wheth'
er under the lilies Of the monarchy, q
the tri-eolor OF the republic.

The COurt-Martial Finds him
Guilty OF the CapituIatiOn
Of Metz, and Sentenced
him to Death.
Of his COunseI-SOlemn
AsseVeratiOn of the Prison
Accommodation to
Mercy.

VERSAILLES, December lO.-M. Lachaud,
counsel for Marshal BazaIne, in his perora-
tion said: ~ deeply sympathize with the
valiant soldier overwhelmed by this terrible
accusation. / fear not death for him. He is
brave, and fears nothing but the loss of his
honor for the sake OF his wife and children.
feel most for France, which viii have
lost n valorous soldier. YOur honors'
patriotism fOrbids that you condemn
him. YOu know what political trials
are on the spot on which which posterity
has raised a statue to those executed after
such trials"
NJ. Pourcet replied, demanding that a terri
bic example be made, as a lesson TO the rising
generation.
Before the judges withdrew, Bazaine said /:
"I have two words in my breast-honOr and
country. 1 have never been found wanting
toward this proud motto during forty-two
years of service. swear before Christ that
have not betrayed France
After long deIiberstion the judges declared
Bazaine guilty Of the charge Of the capitu-
lation of the army OF Metz, in open
field, without doing all that was prescribed
by honor and duty to avoid surrender, and
Unanimously condemned him to death,
and to be degraded from his rank previous to
his execution. After Judgment had been
rendered, all the members of the court signed
an appeal for mercy, which the Duke 'Au-
male Immediately conveyed in person to
Marshal MacMahon. Marshal Bazaine was
greatly agitated when he heard the decision
OF the court.
