I'Aitis , ( via Hijvre ) . July 9. | Now i'ork
Herald Cable Special to the Br.E.J The
1'ranzinl trial opened to-day with tremendous
deus eclat at the court of Assizes. All Paris ,
and especially charmlnz bevies of morbid
deml-mondalncs had gathered together to see
Pranztnl. the alleged triple murderer of the
rue Montaicue , brought to bay. For weeks
and weeks the papers have been full of It.
For weeks the president hns been beset by
applications for scats no matter what scats ,
let us see Pranzinl , and see Pranzinl we
must at any cost , and wo have seen
him. The curtain rose on the play
this morn I ne. The scene , the court of
assizes ; title , the triple murderer In rue
Montaigne. No matter ho > v early you had
come , no matter oven if you had slept on the
Btcps of the palace , n hundred privileged
people had been let In hetoro you , and when
the doors were at last thrown open the hall
was full ot strong barriers , jealously
guarded , .which blocked the approaches to
. "Von can't this sir "
the court. pass way , ,
and "You can't pass that way" at every
turn you were met with the monotonous
"non possumus , " Nothing like It has been
scon at Paris since Mme. Cloves llugrccs'
trial.
'How did I get In ? Heaven knows. At
11 , just betoro the prisoner entered the dock ,
1 found myself In the court , better late than
never. Uohlnd mo was Jules Clarctio , di
rector of the Francals , chatting with Henri
Bauer , the critic , and several other literary
celebrities. In a distant corner 1 saw Gaston
lierardl , of the Independence Delge. Here
find there I noticed thn familiar face of a
Dalntcr , of a dramatist They were
the exceptions , however. Nearly the
whole of the court was packed with
ladles of society. most nearly all
distinctly ladles not In society. The fair ,
frail sisterhood had mustered thick , row
upon row of them , In war paint and feathers.
No wonder the trial Interested them all ,
many , 1 dare say , thinking they might have
had the fate of Alice Kegnaul. Tneylilled
the auditorium proper with their fans and
frivolity. The front of the hall was reserved
for barristers. To the right and left of them
were journalists and the jury. On a table a
few feet from the empty seats which were
to bo occupied by the judges lay the
pieces for a conviction a shabby
brown overcoat , n shabby pair of black trow-
scrs , a hamper and a small grey valise. The
heat In the long blue trial chamber ovou at
that hour was stilling. Hardly a window
was open. This stuffy , slickly odor of hu
manity assailed the nostrils , and wo had
inven hours of It before us.
Enter Pranzinl. At a quarter to 11 there
was a hum of excitement in the hall. A side
door opened behind the press benches. The
next minute tlio prisoner was ushered Into
the room by four municipal guards , and a
voice rang out "No opera classes allowed. "
What is he like' . ' Well , like a hundred
thousand men you may meet. Good looking !
Yes , In a way. About thirty , short , neither
very dark nor very fair , joh garcou the
French would say ; short , curly hair , very
thin at the top , brushed smoothly over the
forehead , which Is square but magnlUcont ;
curly beard and whiskers , neatly trimmed
like his mustache ; small observant eyes and
tvondcrfully mobile eyebrows ; no particular
ibaracter In his nose or mouth ; neck
lhapely , What did lie wear ? Ho was dressed
With carefully1 studied carelessness , and It
lulled him ,10936,1 blacl ( jacket and a white
waist coit , a'nd , w'rn .vlo.vrn collar and d light
cravat. In his hand ho'earrlbd ' n high hat ,
neatly brushed. In the b'reAst pocKct-ol.lils
teat you see the end of a clean white hand'
kerchof , and his manner was worth remem
bering. Cool Is not the word for It. Ik
teemed liupcrtubed as ho entered. UK
looked pale , just palo enough to bo interest'
Ing , otherwise no trace of
emotion whatever. A nickeling
imllo played over his lips , but II
tvas a well-bred smile. It scorns to express
Infinite care and a touch of pity , as whc
thould say , "I am willing to humor von , good
people , but ll'n tedious , tedious for an Eng
lishman like me , who believes In fair ulti }
for a prisoner till ho Is shown to be guilty. '
At twenty minutes past 3 the court enters
tors four judges robed in red and black
President Onfroy do nrevillo takes his seal
In the center under Honnat's solemn plctun
of the crucifixion a pale , Intelligent gentle
man ot forty-live , mobile eyebrows , as mobile
as Pranzlnl's , black hair and whiskers , am
an eyeglass. The Indictment Is read. No
body listened to It , not oven Pranzlul. Tht
witnesses' names are called , sixty-three It
all. At live minutes past 13 the Intorrogatini
begins , the president sternly eyeing Prazlnl
"On Sunday , March 20. In thi
evenlnc you were seated in at
orchestra stall of the Marseille theater. Yoi
listened to "The Uaibcr of Savlllo. " Yoi
were sent for. You mustered npjoureour
ago. You followed the employe of tin
theater to the commissary of police , win
showed Jewelry that you had given to ttllo
of the rue Yeutcmacuc. What have you ti
say ? "
To this Pranzinl sa'.d ' ; "I nerer gavi
away these jewels. "
O The president "This Is an InsufRclen
answer , not only to a magistrate bu
to any Intelligent jwrson. All the accusation
against you have been collected together
The people are convinced of your gill
Morovcr , wo are now going to make a stud ;
ofyourpwt life. This will be lone , bu
necessary. We thai ! always see > ou show
Ing the came qualities. You are a lovrr o
gambling , and above all a lover of women
not however , as tba moralist said , ot wuuiei
that cost money , but ot women that keji
you In funds. "
The president , then , In an academic an
rather tedious discourse , narrated Pranzinl
tntlre existence. He read a letter from I
peLaborde , that gave Information to th
judgr d'lnslnicllon to the cffoct that ho bad
known htm formerly as a swindler and a
coward.
Tlm president What have you to say to
that letter ?
Pranzinl Nothing at all. Twelve years
ago ho .showed mo a certain amount of friend
ship. 1 am astonished at what he says In his
letter.
The President You made a great deal of
money during your travels In Uelochtstan
and Afghanistan. ?
Pranzinl About 80,000 francs.
Prcsldent-What did you do with U ?
Pranzinl I lost a great deal of It at
cards.
Prcslsont You were employed In the Com-
pagnlo des Wagons Ills when you earned
2fiO francs n month ?
Pranzinl Ah , more than a 100 francs for n
train.
President Why did you leave the wagons
Its ?
Pranzinl Because they wanted to send
me far away. 1 wanted to bo able to sec my
mother at Boulogne.
President You left because you were
caught robbing a traveler.
Pranzinl That is absurd.
The heat grows more stilling and nil the
fans are going now. Then follows a char
acteristic incident showing the prisoner's
calmness.
"Let us set up the scene at the directors , "
says the president. "Among other Informa
tion communicated by the Boulogne police
we are told of an old woman , known as the
'lady of the jewels , ' of whom YOU were a
lover. "
Pranzinl Oh , yes ; Madame
The President Oh. you don't name her.
Pranzinl No , I simply say , madaino. I
know what I'm about , ehl They say that
she's forty-live or forty-eight years old , do
they ? Her photograph Is among the pieces.
Show It to the jurymen , M. President , and
they can decide as to her age.
President It's under seal and cannot bo
shown. You admit that she's young and
that you loved her ?
Pranzinl Yes , certainly. ( Laughter. ] But
I Insist that the jury should see her photo
graph. It Is only to show how credible the
Bouloguo police are.
A duel to death. M. Brevcllo Is gradually
getting his hand. Now he has taken the
measure of his adversary , so has Pranzlni
It's disdain 1'or disdain , sarcasm for sarcasm.
Prauzlnl rants. He is met at every turn by
raillery. The duel Is Brewing Interesting.
If a life were not at stake how enjoyable it
would bo. The wonderful adventures the
jell garcon has had In his career-
one day with General Skoheloff , the
next In Egypt , the next organizing caravans
in Asia or gambling at the roulette tables
at Monte Carlo. His two passions are his
bana pley and women , but chiefly play.
The efforts of the Interrogator are directed
to showing that to satisfy the ilrst ho was
always ready to satisfy the second. From
the old lady ot Bologna wo come to the old
lady of Paris , MIlo. Sablerre , whom the
president persistently refers to as ' 'Cotto
Pavoro fille , " and yet ho has seen the lady.
Grey do Maupassant would find a subject
for a novel iu the Labatlcr passage with the
accused.
Says the president : "Where did you Ilrst
meet Mary Sebatler ?
Pranzinl I don't remember. At a ball , I
think.
President She was more of a mother to
you than n mistress , and you allowed her to
support you.
At the tlmo ho met Mllo.Sebatler , Pranzinl
seems to have been abjectly poor. The evi
dence shows ho had hardly any linen to
wcarovon , and that but for his bonne's for-
uncs ho would have had a good chance of
starving. Pranzinl denies It , for lie sees the
inference that may bo drawn from
it. Pranzinl admits ho got a
big knife Just before the murder , but main
tains It was given him by a cutler In ex
change for a pocket knife which nee-Jed ro-
pairing. AH to his flight from Purls after the
crime , ho was panic strnck at the Idea of
having left two visiting cards at Marie Iteg-
nault's. Step by stop his defences are beaten
down. Ills explanations have ceased to bo
creditable. His denial and explanations are
childish. Still hesmlles. Pranzlni grows melo-
diaumtlc , talks ot his conscience , an.d
solemnly calls upon God to witness that ho
Is honest. "Yes , God himself , " ho says ,
pointing to the dead Christ on the wall.
Still worse does It get for him when ho en
deavors to explain away the telegram which
ho sent to a young American lady , Miss N ,
whom ho had seduced. The tolocrara was
signed Henry Forster , Grand hotel , and
oddly enough a packet containing the jewels
of the dead Marie Kegnault were addressed
to Dr. Forster at Marsellls , where Pranzinl
stopped after the murders , it Is supposed , by
Pranzinl himself. At 4 court adjourned.
Again the heat Is suffocating and the la
dles collapsing. The curtain rises on the
last part ot to-day's drama , Pranzln ! , palo
but smiling. The questions now turn on
Marie Uegnault's jewels. Did Pranzinl
really give them or not ? Did ho really elvo
any ot them to loose women of Marseilles ?
Pranziul denies everything , but falls to con
vince the court Then the president returns
to the alibi in Tueston and says : "Lot us
hope your delicacy will let you reveal the
name of that person with whom you say you
spent the Ilrst part ot the nlcht of the
crime. Ho dismissed the case for the day
with the solemn words , "ReflechUsez Pran
zinl eta luudl. " _
QUUEIj EVICTIONS.
Outrageous Actions of Umcrgcncy
Atcii In Ireland.
ICoj'i/rtuht J8S7 by James Oordin flermeff. ]
DUIILIN , July 10 , 1 a , m. [ New York
Herald Cable Special to the BKK ] The
Conlgranny evictions heretofore outlined In
these dispatches are now in their third day.
They have been confined to one small dls
trlct , where the people are vorjr poor and the
land unprofitable. . The means of resistance
nro small. The attitude of the people In the
face of the exterminating war opened up on
them , Is one of determination and courage
which nothing appears to check
Krcry day since the evictions started the
people of Wlckloo and Wexford have In
largo numbers assembled to witness the pro
ceedings and swells the chorus of condemna
tlon ot the doings ot the landlord's represon
tatlves. To-day there was no falling off , bn
if anything more , and they were encouragei
by their respected pastors , Father Dunphy
Father O'Neill , Father O'Connell and Father
Kyau , of Itathdrura. Karly yesterday , at a
quarter past C o'clock a. in. , without their
usual escort of police and military , Captain
Hamilton and his partv of emergency men
came down uususpectedly on Patrick Greene
of At-hklnst. Mrs. Greene and her children
has just risen , and ho was still In bed whci
tlio summons startled the household. The
emergency man would not even glveHi *
family tlmo to dress , but bundled them out.
Mrs. Greene was dragged violently from her
homo by the Ill-tempered subornlnata ) , and
Captalh Hamilton had so little pity that he
refused to ullow the lltHe children to break
fast before being rendered homeless.
" 1 had trie kettle boiling on- the lire , " sah
Mrs. iirceiiF. with tears In her eyes , "but the
ruillaus dialed me out aud oue kicked m <
out throuun the holt. "
The next attack was ou tka touso o
'atrlck Darcy. The place was strongly
arricadcd and a good halt hour's
plying of the crowbar was neces-
ary before ono window lost Us defences.
? ho emergency men rushed to the opening ,
nit had to undergo a stream of boiling water
'rom the gallant girls who defended their
lomo with fearlessness. Kotten eggs were
Iso thrown Into the faces of the fellows.
laving once got In , they proceeded
o pay off the Inmates , Two
defenceless girls were beaten by
he emergency men , their faces cut. and
ho fellows were forcing the young women
lirougli the top of the window when the
) ollco entered and had them brought out
hrough the door. The action of the emer
gency men was unmanly and savage. The
most Intense excitement was caused by the
ipcctaclc. These new outrages nro not
Ikcly to help the pending Tory elections.

A'eio York AtaocMcd Press. \
Biuti.iN , July 'J. If the temper of the Ger
man press were a faithful reflection of the
disposition of the government , war with
Franco would be a question of a few days.
The revelations at the Klein trial , of tin
French tax on foreigners , which Is openlv
dcslcned to atfcct Germans , prohibitive Im
post on German spirits have combined to in
censing these people to the utmost. The
latter measures by themselves would have
bceu held of less account , but associated
with tlio spy trials they have heightened the
general sense that the French enmity U
Implacable , and that it seeks to wound Ger
mans whete it can , waiting for a chance tr
inlllct the deadliest injury. The trial ol
Klein Is the tilth treason trial in which cleai
proof was afforded that the French war min
istry has organized a system of espionage. A
worse case than any yet revealed Is undci
inquiry. An employe of the central admin
Istratlon at Strasburg Is about to be tiled al
Lelpslc. He Is charged with selling to the
French war oflico all of the olllclal report !
sent to the chief administrator of Alsace bj
his various subordinates. The complete-lies ;
of this system of espionage suggests thai
treason is still at work.nnd that any moment
may bring further revelations. The ofllcial
irritation equals that of the public ,
and both the onlclals and the
general public would approve the strongcsl
dlsolomatlc remonstrance being made to the
frcnch government
As to the dangers of the situation as re
fleeted by the press , the Krouso Xeltnng ox
pleclclty declares that any further show ol
consldcrateness toward Franco Is Imposslhh
that a country whoso whole pol
Icy toward Its neighbors fron
feelings of wrongness and hatred has m
right to expect further toleration.
The Berliner Taneblat says : "Ifinsplt <
of all efforts to keep the peace the war danci
of Franco and Germany must open Its blood ]
maze , France will either bo overtaken by tin
fate of Poland , or the German enipln
will bo cast down from the heigh
on which It has ttood since stern
of Duppcl. The Germans would enter upon
a war conscious that they had done their DCS
to avoid a conflict. The National Xnltune
which Is noted for the moderation of its art !
cles , says ; "It is Impossible to close our eye :
to the dangers of rccurrlnc hostile Incidents
The seed of hatred aaainst Germany sowi
for the last seventeen years is now In mos
luxuriant bloom. "
This press campaign , which has begun It
earnest , has undoubted ofllcial Inspiration
It Is believed to foreshadow early dlplomatli
action toward France.
Regarding the election of Prince Fordl
nand , of Saxu-Coburg , Gotha , as prince o
Bulgaria , the Berlin ofllcial feeling Is li
favor of the prince , but nothing has trans
olred to show Prince Bismarck's tendency
Count Kalnoky supports Prince Ferdinand
Duke Ernest of Saxo-Coburg , Gotha ha
given sullen assent , with a proviso that th <
prince's acceptance ot the throne shall de
pend upon the appoval ot Emueror William
The talk ot diplomatic circles associate
Ferdinand's election with the jlrobablo de
vclopraent of an active Blsoiarcklan pollcj
against Russia.
TUK OIjADsfoNK TESTIMONIAL ,
It la Accepted With Warm Wordi
For America.
LONDON , Jul > 9. This afternoon at Dolli
lllll , in the presence ot a large number o
guests Invited by Mrs. Gladstone to a gardei
party , the American testimonial to Glad
ctouo was formally presented to the ex
premier and afterward exhibited to him b ;
the guests. The presentation speech wa
made by Hod. Joseph Pulitzer , ot the Ne\
York World. Gladstone' received the part
at 4 o'clock , and after shaking hands ante
to Mrs. Gladstone , all pi
ceded to the lawn , where the testimonial
vas taken out and stood upon a box. The
nssslve piece of silver * 6rk was most carc-
ully examined aud admlfcd by Mr. and Mrs ,
Gladstone. It was the first time that either
of them had scon It. Gladstone then faced
'ulltzer , aud the two gentlemen formally
lowed.
Mr. Gladstone atter praising the beauty of
ho gift said lie did not think so much of
vhat he deserved or mieht fairly claim as of
ho profound and Irrepressible Interest of
Vmcrtca in the great Irish cause. From
Americans ho personally never had
anything but the most generous trent-
uent. Ho would not dwell upon
personal matters which were of minor im-
lortanco , but he had hardly a greater conso-
atlon than the unanimous support ho re
ceived In America in the present struggle.
Referring to certain expressed jealousy of
American interference In English affairs , ho
said It was much too late , under the circum
stances to object to the conduct
of Americans when they ventured to
advise on Irish questions. It would be
monstrous and unnatural If Americans did
not do It , for the feelings ot humanity re
quired it at their hands. Wo receive Ameri
can alms to lighten famine In Ireland , It Is
our business. If possible , to prevent , or If It
arises to bear the cost thereof. We have re
ceived American almi not for that alone but
for the removal from Ireland to a hannlcr
land of n largo portion of her population ,
which Loid Salisbury recently designated as
n burdensome engagement upon the soil.
Mr. Gladstone contended that the wholn civi
lized world and Its literature favored the
cause ot Ireland , and h < ! had challenged men
who knew more than himself to produce any
author who did not severely and unmltlRat-
edly condemn England , and the challenge
was unanswered.
Criticising Coercion bill Gladstone said * *
was passed by men , the majority of whom ,
when elected opposed Coercion. He con
demned the permanent feature of the act
and the oppression of societies in Ireland.
Ho reeretted that the American deputation
had i-omo at a time of retraction and retro
gression. There was one-consolation , it was
impossible that the IOTO of liberty should
recede from the people , lie believed the
people as represented by the present garlla-
inent , were a doconded , deluded people.
But recent elections' showed they were
awakening cheers. The cause of llbertj
wtuld triumph eventually.

A New Order of Things.
FH.VNCISCO , July 0. The steamship
Mai Iposa , which arrived from Australia this
morning , having touched at tlio Hawaiian
Islands , brings the Important Information
: hat the expected revolution In the Hawaiian
kingdom has actually occurred. The popu-
ace organized and demanded the downfall
of the ministry and the abdication of the
king , The residents of Honolulu and the
surrounding country have assumed the pow
ers of government. The volunteer military
'orces of the kingdom are with them. As a
result the Gibson ministry has fallen and a
cabinet named by the people headed by Will-
lam M. Green has been appointed. King
Kalaknita Is permitted to retain the throne al-
lioiigh divested of all present power , having
acceded to the demand for n new constitu
tion and agreed to nbldo by the will of the
people. The king was thoroughly alarmed
and on July 1 called n mooting of the Ameri
can minister , the British commissioner , the
French commissioner and the Portuguese
commissioner , to whom ho offered to transfer
pro tern the powers vested In him as king.
These oHlclals refused to accent the trust , but
advised the king to lose no tlmo In tonnlnir
a now constitution , which he followed.
Walter M. Gibson and his son-in-law , F. U.
Ilaysoldcn. are under arrest , having been
seized by the civic troops when attempting
to escape. The populace assumed control of
affairs In the kingdom on June 25. and were
joined by hastily organized military com
panies. On the afternoon of Juno 30 at a
large meeting , resolutions wore adopted de
claring that the administration of the gov
ernment had ceased through corruption and
incompqtency to adequately perform Its
functions and afford protection to the per
sonal and property rights for which all gov
ernments exist. Demands on the king were
formulated to the effect that he must uncon
ditionally dismiss his cabinet and call on
either William L. Green , Henry Waterhouse ,
Godfrey Brown or Mark 1 * . Koblnson to se
lect a new one , and that Walter Gibson
bo dismissed from cachland every oflico held
by him. The third and fourth demands were
that the king should make restitution fur
$71,000 opium bribe money and dismiss
Junlus Kaal , register of conveyances , who
was Implicated in the bribery. They nlso
asked a specific plcdeo from the klnir that be
would not In future interfere with or at
tempt tountiuly Inlluencc legislation. When
the committee reached the palace , they found
the news had preceded them , and the Gibson
ministry handed In their resignations atter
conferring with the representatives of foreign
governments. On July 1 Kalakaua formally
appointed William L. Green prime minister
and minister of foreign affairs. Green then
completed the cabinet The surrender of
King Kalakaua to tlio demands of the populace -
lace were was as complete and ns Ignomin
ious as that endured by his late ministry. In
rcsponsp to the demands made upon him , he
replied in detail signify In i : his acquiescence.
What course the revolution will now take Is
not known. When tlio Mnranosa sailed the
opinion prevailed that KiUakaua should bo
allowed to continue on the throne , thoueh
fears were expressed that Gibson and other
members of the ex-ministry might lose their
lives. There had , however , been no blood
shed up to that time.

The Uolt Falls at Imst An Unfrocked
Priest.
NEW Yor.K , July 0 1 he bolt that has for
weeks been hanging over the head ot Dr.
McGlynn 1ms fallen. Ho has been excom
municated. A reporter loarued positively
to-day at Archbishop Cornwall's residence
that a papal brief ordering his formal excommunication -
communication had been received , and that ,
accompanied by a letter from Archbishop
Corrlgan , It would be read in all tlio Catholic
churches ot this dloceso to-morrow. The
papal brief sets forth tlio contumacy of the
priest , and refers with sorrow to his persist
ency in detylng the church which had been
so anxious to see him repent and do pcnanco
for ttio scandal he lias provoked. It goes on
at some length to explain the necessity of
the present act , compliments Archbishop
Corrlcan on his nrmiu'ss and discretion and
ends by Instructing him to publish the decree
of excommunication In his church diocese at
once. The letter from the ntcliblshop will
recite anew the anxious efforts of tlio local
church and the authorities to bring Dr. Mc
Glynn to a proper sense of his duties as n
priest , and concludes by exerting the faithful
to obey Implicitly the mandate Irom homo
with reference to the unfrocked priest. This
Is the last act In the strange drama so far as
the church Itself Is concerned. Dr. McGlynn
is entirely cut elf from It , and Catholics aru
not supposed to associate with him. All sac
raments are withheld from Him.

INTKHVlEW WITH JEFF DAVIS.
Ho Tells of Various Attempts to Take
hln Iilff.
lArTiMoin ! : , July P. The mornlnz Herald
vlll publish to-murrovv a0 column contrl-
mtlon giving an account of recent Important
ntcrvlows with Jefferson DavK In those In-
ervlows Davis among other things charges
hat the federal government conspired during
ho war to have him assasclnatcd. On this
subject Davis says ; "While the Confederate
Government was at Montgomery , Ala. , In
bOl , 1 rccelvod an annoymous letter from
'hll.idclphla the substance of which was
hat the Governor of Pennsylvania had re-
eased a noted desperado from the
icnltentlary upon condition that ho go to
Montgomery and nssassluata me , with the
iromlso of a reward of 8100,000 If ho suc-
: ecdcd. After his release the man stated
bathe probably could not succeed alone and
ga\o the name of another convict who was
released with him. " Davis then gave , with
iiiieli circumstantiality , detail of various at-
omuts upon his lite. On one occasion when
viewing tlm defensive works at Ulrhmond
ogethcr with Colonel William Preston John-
sou , a pistol ball passed by them. Search
revealed a man in a vacant house. Davis
sent him to General Leo with this note :
'Hope that he will bo put to the trout line to
stopu ball Intended fora better man. " At
Montgomery all his efforts were directed to
ward securing for seceedlng states a peace
ful separation , though he never thought of
: olng back into the union to escape the
ast resort to arbitrament of arms.
Davis discusses his experience as
secretary of war In Tierce's cabinet as .senti
er , etc. He pays a high tribute to Jackson ,
I.re , Albert Sidney Johnston and A. P.
Hill. Speaking of the seven day's ] battle
around lilclimond , Dawes savs General Leo
conceived and executed a desperate plan to
turn the think and rear of McClelland's
army , and adds that the failure to annihilate
lie iedcral army was duo chiefly to the fact
hat Lee moved In icnornnco
of the country below .Richmond
md with Insufficient guides. Ho says
Leo's object in retreating Irom Petersburg [ n
lie last days of the war was to reach Dan
ville , unlto with Johnston , and crush Sher
man before Grant could loin him. Ho de
clares that McClnllan and Meade were two of
.he best federal generals , and says had the
former received hearty support fiom the fed-
< ral war department , his oampalcn against
tllchtnoud would have resulted disastrously
to the confederates.
Davis and his family are warm in their
iraUes of the late John W. Garrett , and con-
inn the story told by the latter of how ho secured -
cured Davis' release from Fortress Monroe.
Davis has no wish to enter public life , but Is
deeply solicitous for the welfare
and prosperity of the whole coun
try , and says the only disturbing
element to be discerned now are the efforts
ot the extremists of the north to keep alive
'or political purposes the animosities and the
mtreds of the past. He thinks the time has
come when reason should be substituted for
passion , and when men who have foimbt In
support of their honest convictions shall bo
able and willing to do justice to each other.

the Intense heat , but the firemen raanfullH
stood their ground , enveloped In sheets , anu
fought otf the flames with four streams of
water , confining the flames to the barn , and
