However the Prussians have shown at Strasbourg Yhat they count less on the evil tiey can do to lbs Tamparts and the garrison thin on we Gisusters they can inflict on tue unfortunate popula- ion.

Reerults and Arms forthe Army of the F Republic—Sailing of the Laiayette day. The movement among the French in this city to assist their brethren at home is rapidly gaining ‘ench To- ground, and may Oually become a powerful lever Jor help in the estabiisument of the youthful repub- lic. ‘The empire could not have acquired the sympa- tny thus freely accorded to the republic. It 1s, per- haps, naturai that the French resi@ents in this coun- try should thus unreservediy express thelr sympa- thies with the republic and have the destre to assist in every way tn their power to overcome its ene- mies; by so doing they show a noble and spiriied example of patriotism, The French avoid as much as possivie all compli- cation In American polities, at the same time they avoid compromising themselves as the Cubans ana Fenians; but it ceriainly appears that they are de- termined to employ every effort to aid the present struggling republic.

WAR ON THE OCEAN. Homored Kesumption of the nizan am Lines—They Will Ne: Ran Uatil Peace is Remored.. ‘The general pubiic can, of course, scarcely be ex- pected to have very accurate opinions on matters of international law. The rumor that got afloat, there- fore, yesterday tethe elfect that the abandonment by the French fleet of the blockade they have hith- erto kept up of the German ports would lead to the immediate reopening of the German Atlantic steam lmes was, perhaps, & bot very unnat- ural one. Uniorinuately, ‘the mere ralsing of the blockade by no means puts an end to the maritime part of the struggie, as was supposed. French men-of-war still scour every navigable ocean, on the aiert to siatch up such veri- Turesome cruisers, Whether sailing vessels or sien ers, as they may be able to catch. it matters little, nerefore, that German ports are again open. So long as German craft have to run the gauntlet of the open ocean there 1s but scant nope of their aging in active commerce.

The latter, in public meeting, decided to let the law take its course. The Courier publi the following confession of Evans, made under the gallows. The Mayos spoken of are brotiers of the Mayo snot by Captain Hayes:— When asked, ‘Have you anything to add to what you have already said in the way of a confession ?”’ he answered, “I have.” He was reminded tn the strongest terms not to implicate any one with the hope of being released or pardoned. His answer was, “I wish to confess the whole matter. I wos persuaded to kill Captain Hayes.’ The question was asked, ‘Who persuaded you to commit the deed?’ His answer was, ‘‘The Mayos.’’ Again be was reminded, “You cannot prolong your lue by im- plicating any one. As you have to be judged before God do not add to your icaung inno- cent persons.’ He was then asked, “Which of the Mayos influenced you!” His answer was, ‘Claudius and Henry Mayo made mé drunk and urged me to kill hum.’ He was asked, “Did they pay you to do ity? His answer was, ‘No; they persuaded me to do it, [hope God may forgive me for the deed.”” CURLIE ©. DUSON.

The Squire gave both the defendant and relatrix some healthy wivice, in which he pictured the more satisfactory enjoyment of a contented wedded life in preference to a life-long blasted repue tation for the one and a residence of a year or two in the Penitentiary for the other. His fatherly words had the desired effect, and the partes consented to a marriage, the sooner the better.
