TIE MYSTERY in the Greenpoint kidnap-
ping case has been solved by the confession
of the woman Lizzie Munger that she had
stolen the child to revenge herself on its
father, and that before she placed it in the
board pile where it was found she had struck
it on the head with stone. This confession
was made to detective under the pledge OF
secrecy; but, of course, when the detective
was placed in the witness box the Coroner
obliged him TO repeat it,. One point in the
case is that stronger motive for revenge ex
isted on the part of the poor creature than
her mere dismissal from the service Of the
family to which the kidnapped infant be-
longed.

Marshal Bazaine Is the latest specimen caught BY
the enterprising agent Of the HERALD in Europe
Tor the Bennett COLLECTION OF Curiosties. We never
took any stock In Bazaine. In the hour Of his
country's death struggle he was an intriguing po-
ltican instead OF patriotic soldier He was con-
victed upon good evidence of being traitor, and
sentenced to DEATH His lie was spared by Marshal
MacMahon, and the favor was reciprocated by
breaking his parole and escaping from his place of
confinement. He now turns up as HERALD cor
respondent which will not improve his reputation,
to say the least

The New YORK LIBERALS Some of them,
as liberals or democrats, participated in the
work OF the Democratic State Convention, and
they have candidate on the democratic State
ticket in Mr.. Dorsheimer for Lieutenant
Governor. But the main body of the liberal
party of the State had a convention of their
own on the 10th, which, in reference to a
State ticket, will meet again. 1t is generally
understood that General Cochrane will not
call this convention together again till be
hears from the republicans at Utica. The
liberals claim thirty thousand votes, q force
which it would be folly to throw away fol
nothing in our November election. Liberty

The latest is decree re-establishing titles of

The FRENCH REPUBLICANS in the Permanent
Committee of the Assembly have accused the
government of suppressing none but repub-

CONGRESS, at its last session, made great
mistake in the reduction of the army, and the
country is now perceiving the fact. 1t is re-
ported that by desertion and death the num-
Der of the rank and file has fallen to $4,000,
and that the effective force is not more than
$4,000 men. This condition of our military
service is discreditable and dangerous to the

upon the Legislature which is to be elected.
But, whatever Mr.. Kellogg may choose to
do, the duty of the government is to see that
justice is rendered to the people of Louisiana.
The proof is overwhelming that they repudiate
the Kellogg administration. The appeal
which we print to-day from the President of
the Board of Trade of Baton Rouge, the Presi-
dent of the Farmers Association and other
citizens, is only additional evidence of the
intense dread they have that this hated rule
may be restored. General Grant should deal
with the question Of equity as well as with
that of the law. He has suppressed the armed
revolution by word, but the moral revolution
still lives as protest against usurpation and
crime in Louisiana and the criminal sympathy
given to usurpation and crime by the admin
istration. The country will demand from the
President, as due to the oppressed people of
that State, something of the vigor he has shown
in overcoming the McEnery government
He should insist upon justice to the State
II is no answer to such demand to say that
having heretofore recognized Kellogg he must
sustain him. If, as no one will seriously
question now, bis recognition was mistake,
why not retrieve it2 II the people of Louisi-
ana answer with alacrity the Presidents sum-
mons to surrender sovereignty which was
theirs by right as well as in fact, why should
not the President recognize this peaceful dis
position by securing to the State its rightful
government2 He cannot do this by the mere
! force of arms. "Upon tho surrender of the
