The New York herald., 1874-08-31

The BRUSSELS CONFERENCE The peace
council at Brussels has come to an end, but
the progress made appears to be slight Four
propositions relative to reprisaIs made by
Russia were rejected by the Congress, but the
meeting came to peaceful ending Neither
the English nor Turkish representatives
signed the protocol, and those that did will
not respect any more Of it than they find con-
venient. The great aim of these conferences
seems to be TO tie up the hands of the people
as much as possible. SO that the military bull
lies of Europe may have only the small regu-
lar armies of the free States to deal with.
England is not likely to allow herself to be
hampered by treaties that may lessen her de-
fensive or offensive power. In this she shows
o wisdom America might initiate to advan.
tage.
The New York herald., 1874-08-31
Bazaine,S EscQpe.

1t seems that BaZaine wishes to make
doubling world believe the romance which
was first published in reference to his escape
from the Isle of Sainte Marguerite. We printed
yesterday an interview with the escaped
prisoner, taken from the Co1oqne Gazette, from
which it will be seen that the ex-Marshal
reiterates the rope story, with new details
Unfortunately for Bazaine, his inventive
genius is very meagre, and one must be
astonished that a man with so little percep-
ton could ever have risen to high command
in the army Of o great nation. He asks the
public to believe that he had no accomplices
in his flight, and at the same time tells us
that he was obliged to use knotted rope
eighty feet long, fastened with an iron ring to
the bars Of the rampant gutter. Admitting,
for sake of argument that the prisoner did
escape by this means, we should be curious
to know how he obtained that heavy iron ring
and knotted rope if they were not furnished
him with the connivance of many persons in
the fort. The tale is too absurd for dime
novel, and the Metz Marshal must have as little
intelligence as honesty if he expects the world
to believe him. The letter of the prisoners
wife is probably true so far as she relates her
personal knowledge, but it does not touch the
main question. It matters little whether
Bazaine got more or less wet getting on
board the yacht which was in waiting to re-
ceive him, but it matters great deal how he
managed to pass the guards of the fort. His
escape could only have been effected by the
guilty connivance Of many men to whom their
country had given an important trust. France
has suffered so much from crimes of this
nature that she cannot with safety allow this
last treachery to go unpunished Indeed, the
security of the country demands an example,
for the escape of the betrayer of Metz is the
best proof how dangerous it is to be lenient
with traitors. Had Bazaine been wise he
would have preserved silence at least until he
had learned by heart some romance which the
public could accept without sacrifice of COM
mon sense
The New York herald., 1874-08-31

FRENCH ELECTIONS. The Marshal President
Of the French Republic has signed decree
ordering elections to be held early in October
TO fill the seven vacancies that exist in the
Chamber. The result of the poll will furnish
very fair indication of the state of popular
feeling All parties are likely to put forth
their full strength to elect their candidates.
We shall then be able TO Judge whether the
pretended reaction in favor of the Bonapartes
has in reality set in. 1t would be a curious
example Of the instability SO often charged
against the French people to find them want
ing to get back the dynasty whose tinsel plo-
ries ended so disastrously at Sedan. We are
not inclined to overrate the importance of this
apparent reaction in certain localities, because
the result may have been influenced by per-
sonal or local feelings outside the general
question of party. Seven elections held in
different districts WILL however show pretty
clearly The drift Of public opinion

free Republic.
Pulpit Discourses Yesterday.

The most plausible objection we have ever
heard made to our custom of publishing on
Monday full reports of the sermons preached
on Sunday is that it tends to keep people
from church. It is argued that the man who
may read fourteen sermons is likely to
dispense with listening to one. But
this is allacy. Quite the con-
trary is the effect; for the reader of
fine sermon by DR.. Tying, DR.. McGlynn.
Dr.. Deems or any of our eminent divines.
will naturally desire to hear its author. Thus
the HERALD does not attempt to supplant tho
pulpit in the estimation Of the religious pub
lie, as superficial minds have supposed, but
rather aims to uphold the pulpit Besides.
no man can attend fourteen churches in one
day, and our purpose is to concentrate the
eloquent preaching of the whole city. and thus
to add to its influence upon the public.
This is signally the case to-day, when We
have the pleasure of publishing the remarks
of eminent clergymen of nearly all Of the
principal denominations. There is Rey.
Frank Hallam, of Georgia, who gives his
views upon the future of the Episcopal Church
in the United States; the Rev. DR.. Tying and
Rev. Stephen Il. Tying, the Rev. Eugene
Cassidy, the Rev. DR.. McGlynn, the Rev.
DR.. Hurst, the Rev. DR.. Cornell, the Rev. DIR.
Deems, the Rev. Dr. Lockwood, DR.. Robinson
at Plymouth church, and others. Here is
surely galaxy of illustrious names, such as
perhaps no other city than New York could
group together on one Sabbath. Most Of these
sermons are upon Christian doctrines and
duties, but two clergymen deal directly with
the great scandal Of the day. The Rev. Mr..
Hageman compares Mr.. Beecher with Abelard
in oil but guilt and expresses unqualified
faith in his innocence. The Rev. Mr.. G.. G.
Ezra, who is also an editor, goes further, and
likens Mr.. Beecher in his dependency to the
prophet Elijah when he prayed that the
Lord would take away his life. And like the
prophet, Mr. Ezra thinks, Mr.. Beecher will
return from the wilderness, stronger for his
trials and with renewed zeal and usefulness.
