with which he attempted to assassiuate the
Emperor of Russia on the l4th April, is a
physician at Wiemar, Germany, who is
also proved to have procured the pistol
with which Soloyief attempted suicide af-
ter failure to kill the Czar, and to have
owned the horse by means of which the
assalauts of General Mesentgof attempted
to escape. kilograms from St. Peters

New York, July IA dispatch from
Capetown. June 18th, via London, says q
Court OF Inquiry has been convened for
the purpose of examining into the con
duct OF Lieut. Carey, 10 command OF the
scouting party to which the Prince lmpe-
rial was attached at the time OF his death
Friends of the Lieutenant say he did not un-
derstandithe position in which be stood to
ward the Prince, and was not aware that
he was expected to exercise any special
guardianship or care over his person.
The court however, goes on to censure
him for proceeding upon his reconnaissance
without escort, for hating and dismount-
ing en- dangerous ground. acts which
betrayed deplorable want of military pru-
dence. The court regrets no attempt
was made by Lieutenant Carey to rally
his escort and to confront the enemy. Af-
ter the court of inquiry the court martial
was organized to try the Lieutenant, but
Carey sets up in his ewn defense that he
was not in charge OF the party when the
Prince was killed, and evidence thus far
submitted somewhat clears him of cowar-
dice.
