STARTLING INTELLIGENCE.

Escape Of Marshal Bdsdine from the Island of
Saint Marguerite.
PARIS, Aug. 11.-There is great excitement
in this city in consequence Of the receipt of
intelligence that Marshal Bazaine escaped
from the Island of st. Marguerite sometime
during Sunday night.
The details of the manner in which he sue
ceeded in getting away are unknown, except
that he used rope-ladder, and got on board
. vessel bound for Italy. The night was dark
and stormy. The journals of this city declare
that the Government will act promptly and
energetically in Furnishing all who connive
at his fight.
On Sunday evening Bazaine walked upon the
terrace with Col. VIllette, his aide de camp. AT
10 o'clock he retired usual, apparently to sleep,
nut before daybreak he had effected his escape
He must have crossed this terrace in the dead of
night, and GLIDING the sentinel, gained the ed ge
of the prccipce, and thence by means of a
knotted rope descended to the sea. He acct
deutly slipred during the descent and tore his
hands, as the rope was found stained with blood
in several place.
Under the cliff in a hired boat were Baz4ine' 8
wife and cousin. They received him as he reached
the water. and the wife taking the herself.
rowed directly to a strange steamer which ha d
been lying of the island since the previous even
ing. They reached the steamer in safety, were
taken on board, and the vessel put to sea. 1t is
thought they have landed at Genoa, IA tho steamer
proceeded in that direction.

A very serious state of things existed al last ac-
counts. The trouble is stated to have originated
about three weeks since, when n DIR. Smith was
attacked in the streets by coored man. He
fired at the latter but missed him, and killed a
little colored giil standing by. A coIored mob
would have lynched Smith but for the entreaties
of the Mayor and Smiths wife. To avoid danger,
Smith voluntarily remained in Jail until Friday
last, when some friends took him Ia Heruaudo.

POLITICAL.

Mr. JOHNSON A brief Editorial in the
daily Republican of Monday last, under the
heading of "Ungrateful' is full of feipt praise,
and, at the same time, almost as full OF down
right falsehoods. Feint says Webster, means
an assumed or false appearance, pretense Of
doing something not intended to be done, a
mock attack, an appearance OF aiming at one
part when another is intended to be struck.
The Editor, after naming VIM. Bright, ESQ.
as our distinguished fellow citizen, says If
we may Judge from the vote at the election on
Saturday last, every delegate, with two ex-
ceptions, who favored his nomination for Gov
ernor, were defeated. Now, in view of the
facts in the case, could any thing be more I'M
true; and again, he says, we believe that this
opposition may be attributed to the fact that
he, Mr.. Bright, is a prominent and influential
member of the Methodist Church, while the
democratic party is controlled by those OF a
widely different creed. In this the Editors
old and well known know nothing proclivities
are discernable, for it is evidently a fling at
the Catholic portion of the Democratic party
and savors of falsehood quite as much as either
OF the former assertions. 1t is very clear,
therefore, that the whole object of the Repub-
friends of Mr.. Bright in case he is defeated in
the State Convention, into voting for DIR.
Jump, who is also a Methodist of some promi-
hence in the county of Kent. This, however,
will not do, it is too thin and will not bring
the answer or result so much desired: 1t is
well known that almost every delegate that
was seen in this city, 4" while they were not
pledged to the support of any particular can
didate" had openly expressed themselves as
being entirely favorable to Mr.. Bright, and
several who were elected had as openly pro-
claimed their preference for him, feeling that
he was, and still as the most available man
that can be named. Yours, &c. l..

preached n most excellent sermon on holiness,
Blessed are the pure i'll heart for they shall

the West Presbyterian Church, Wilmington,
preached very fine sermon from Ask and ye

was highly appreciated by the preachers and
the people. In the evening, preaching by the
Rev. Mr.. Davis, followed by u spirited meet
ing.
Tuesday fine day-Splendid morning meet
ing at CLOCK, fine experience meeting. One
old man, 20 years of age, solicited prayers and
presented himself at the altar; one or two
were converted one 20 years old, seeking re-
igion, was converted. Bro. Wood preached
at 104 clock, u very profitable sermon.
The weather is now settled; the people are
hocking to camp in increasing numbers, and
camp promises II higher element OF enjoyment
and increasing usefulness. 1t is desired that
persons should enjoy the camp while they can.
The report that camp would hold over next
Sabbath is without any foundation whatever.
The Rev. Mr. Mann, of New Castle is about
preaching this afternoon, and lively time is
expected.
Information is just received that the son Of
Rev. Mr.. Sanderson, preacher in charge, has
fallen from u three story scaffold and the father

INSURANCE IN CHIcAab.-The insurance
companies in Chicago have again increased
their rates. This time 50 per cent. is the
addition. This alone will cost her people
more money than the whole cost of her fire
department under the old volunteer system.
1t is now almost impossible for merchants to
get insurance on heavy stocks there; and a
few days ago 100000 worth of pork which
had been shipped there had to be re-shipped
to another city because only one insurance of
$4,000 could be had upon it. Since the insti-
tuition of the paid fire department in Phila-
delphia the insurance rates have been nearly
doubled there also.
