The Escape Of narshaI Bazaine

INTERESTING PARTICULARS or The AFFAIR.
The following interesting particulars OF the
escape of Marshal BaZaine from his prison OF
the island OF st. Marguerite have been re
ceiVed: The apartments occupied by Marshal
Bazaine opened upon a terrace which was built
upon the lofty and PERCEPTIONS cliff oyerhang-
ng the sea. A sentry was posted on the terrace
With orders TO watch the prisoners every move.
mebt Sunday evening the Marshal walked
lIon the terrace with Col. Nillette, his aide
ie-camp. At 10 O'Clock he retired as usual.
apparently to sleep, but before daybreak he had
effected his escape. lie must have crossed the
terrace in the dead OF night, and GLIDING the
sentinel gained the edge Of the precipiee, and
thence by means of a knotted rope descended
o the sea. He evidently slipped during his de-
scent and tore bis hands, az the rope was found
stained with blood in several places. Under
the cliff in a hired boat were Bazaine's wife and
cousin. They received him as he reached the
water, and Madame lie Marechall taking the
oars herself, rowed directly 10 a strange steam
er, which had been lying Off the island since
The previous evening. They reached the vessel
IN safety, were taken on board and the steamer
then put to sea. It is thought that they have
landed at Geneva, as the steamer proceeded in
that direction. The first news OF the affair
came TO Grasse, the nearest place on the coast ,
and the magistrates Of the town Immediately
sent officers in every direction to search for the
fugitive. There was great commotion in Mar
settles when the face became known. An i'm
vestigation was opened. Colonel VIlette, who
was walking with the Marshal on the evening
OF his escape, was discovered there and i'm
prlsoned. The commandant OF the fort of st.
marguerite was placed under arrest, and GEN
eral Leweill has gone to the island % investi-
gate the affair.
Ii is reported that the Marshal landed At San
Reno, and travelled via Turin 10 Balse. at the
latter place be took train TO Brussels, where
he arrived at O'Clock on Tuesday morning
IL Is believed In Paris that the rope found on
the cliff at the Isle of ST. Marguerite was sus-
pended there to mslead the authorities as 70
the manner Of the Marshalis escape, which was
erected in some other way through the CON
niyaDce of the guard. LIE Saline states that
Bazaine had given his parole not TO leave the
island. Precautions were consequently re.
Taxed. The sentry was withdrawn from the ter
race every morning at i've O'Clock, il being
considered unnecessary TO keep him there after
daylight Two soldiers belonging to the gar
rlsOn of the fort swear that they saw the Mar
shall on the terrace at half-past five Monday
morning.
