The Sad Fortunes of Marshal Bazaine.


Talking of Madrid, have heard lately that
Marshal Bazaine is living in that city in a state
of actual want. His wife, who was Mexican
heiress. has left him, taking with her her large
fortune, which was settled on herself. The old
man wrote lately to one of his military friends
in Paris, stating the pecuniary straits to which
he had been reduced. He had tried to persuade
the Empress Eugene to aid him, but that lady
had never vouchsaeed response to his letter.
Yet, If the Marshal had any claim on any one in
the world, it was the Empress. He wrecked his
own career and ruined his life by his
fervid Bonapartsm. And she, who has
now no actual claims upon her. having
neither family nor friends, might very well
have afforded to settle an annuity on the old
soldier. who was too ardent an Imperialist to be
genuine patriot One Of Bazaines former
comrades, old general, who is himself far
from rich. sent the Marshal 5000. What dreary
ending to a that began so brilliantly!
When he entered Mexico at the head of the
French troops, how dazzling seemed his future
prospects! And a year or two ago the embassa-
dor of France at Madrid CHANGED to meet NJ and
Nine. Bazaine at one of the official balls. The
minister summoned his staff and family at once,
and with them quilted the ballroom. For the
French government has commanded its repre-
sentatives in Spain never to associate with the
traitor of Metz, nor even to remain at any enter
tainment where he may be present.

SPIRIT OF THE STATE PRESS.

1t appears that Governor Gray is-like joey
Bagstoek-''sly. devilish sly" He went to Wash
ington the other day on political and personal
mission, and instead of frankly avowing his OBJ
ject. telling nquirers that it was his own con-
cern-as most people would have done-he an
nounced that he was going to attend to the
States swamp-land claims against the general
government. 1t now turns out that he has
nothing to do with that business, it being the
duty of the Auditor Of State and the State
agent. appointed for that purpose, to attend TO
it. The willy Governor thought he was playing
smart trick, hut the little joker" was handled
too unskillfully 20 deceive the dear people.

General corhagratioDs are much easier pre-
vented than checked, and they most surely
prevented by the removal of old, and the pro-
hibition of new frame buildings in crowded
streets Apart from the main business streets.
Indianapolis is too much of lath and plaster
city. Even within the prescribed fire limits. the
Council has been in the habit of giving special
permits for the erection of frame buildings. 1t is
dangerous practice. North of Louisiana and
and south of North, west of Liberty and east of
California, no more frames should be allowed to
go up. Brick i 8 but little dearer, even at first
outlay, is thrice as durable, and infinitely safer.

An indianapolis mail carrier has been dis
charged from the force because in speaking of
Hendricks he said ''his old toe won't trouble
him any more" For saying this he was called
before the postmaster and discharged. This
may be Democratic civi-service reform. but it
smacks to much of Russian tyranny to be prac-
tced in America. In that country to speak i'll
of the Gar is to invite Punishment. Now, under
Democratic rule, to express an opinion of an
official Is expulsion from Office. These were the
laws in the days of the Inquisition, five centuries
age They will not do now.
