At the moment he was lifted from the

entangled in the coils of a sheet. in such
a way as to hold him fast.
Upon reaching the water, therefore, he
was by no means clear of the schooner,
as his enemies supposed. To the contra
ry, he remained attached to the vessel by
n rope more than an inch in diameter, and
perceived that he was being towed gently
through the water alongside, keeping pace
with the schooner.
The long boat was already in the water.
The schooner had been left under such
easy sail, with a view to this deserlion,
that her progress through the water was
scarcely perceptible.
Isn't there any spoil aboard ?n asked
Bill Maring, who had been chosen to

the prominent Southerners who will be res

raj amnesty bill. recuently passed by the
House: Jefferson Davis. of Tennessee Rob
ert looms, of Georgia; Lewis T. Wigfal, now

The passage of this bill by the House by SO

unusual respect and attention accorded to

indication given by Republicans since the war
OF return to a national feeling and policy.
1T is reported on good authority that promi-
nent members OF the Administration have
said that i'll the event of IL foreign war com
mands would be offered to the leading militia
ry men of the South : and it is apparent that
the day has come when Southern statesmen,
who are ready to act on the basis of the Union

public councils.

Paris has new sensation. Bazaine is con-
demned to die. The man who from his youth
has served with honor in the armies eff his
country is now to submit to the humiliation
of loss of rank. He who has so often braved
but escaped the peris of battle is now sen-
fenced to death of disgrace.
The trial. which has resulted in this mourn
full conclusion, was of great length, and no
doubt exhaustive evidence was presented
both by the defense and the prosecution. With
that evidence, however, VIC are as yet but
poorly acquainted, and any decided expression
of opinion as to the justice of the verdict
would. under the circumstances, be premature.
The Due d'Aumale enjoys the reputation, we
believe. of man of honor, cultivation and
Judgment. On the other hand, it has been
. considered by some unfair tliat the scion of
one dynasty should be appointed to preside
over the trial Of the military favorite of
another, to which it is intensely inimica.
The appeal for mercy, signed by all the mem-
bers of the court, and carried by the Due
d'Aumale to President MacMahon, will most
likely be granted, but it will not restore that
which French Marshal values moro highly
than life.-N. 0. Piedyune, 12h.
A Paris dispatch, dated Dec. II, says:
The sentence of death against the Marshal
is committed to twenty years seclusion. He
is to bear the effects of degradation of rank
but will be spared the Illuminating ceremony
