We have, tierefore, had to question Assi again yespectng these documents, and, after a careful considera- tion of their contents and of the replies of Asai, it has been easy tor us to convince ourselves that they ware but the most evidemt confirmation ‘of all the weighty ‘charges resting upon Arai First_We ound levers which showed in a poaitive manner bis afiiiia- thon with the Internations/, One Of them Isa despatch m cypher, respecting which he will give no information, and which he seems to us to acknowledge that it 16 a question the address ot A second letter, written in French, contains certain signe.

However that may be, it 18 evident that Ass\ was a zealonx member of the Ji fernutionai, and the ex- intence of these two letters proved that he maintained with its menibers a secret correspondence to prevent detection. Becond—We find an order of service given by Assi to bre alters eyo, the accnned Fosse, Ac- cording to this order he was to make a careful “selection of monuments and public buildings to serve storehouses for gunpowder. ‘and probably other inflammable materials, The preciston with which this order ts draw up ows the cautions manner in which Fosse was required to make bis selections. He was especially to select friendly quarters, not communicating with the catacombs and re- moved from the main sewers, Jt is therefore obvious that the ertminal project of blowing up and burning Paris haa been determ| Upon and arranged; that measures were taken Jor that purpose, and that in case of tue failure of the insar- rection this infamous and criminal project was to be carried fato execution, However, it wae necessary to ensure a@ retreat, and hence the most formal directions were given ‘Chal no depot should be formed in the catacombs nor in the ‘sewers, in order to leave open @ aure means of escape witb- out ex ing to danger the defenders of the Commune should Useir ns prove unsuccessful. Third—Assi wae ebarged with the Spy yen of the manufacture of of war. It ap also that he caused otber gubstances to be manufactured. We have the proof in a Jetter which will be found in the indoctment, and which proves thet the central depot of gunpowder, Rue de VArsenal, No. 9, was the chiet place for the pre- of poisoned substances. Assi Igo frequent visits to at establishment. He pretends that nothing was made ‘there but fulmmating powder, fuses and capaules-oniy, in- deed, euch thin, tactured by the State.

Dupont, who exclaimed, “You wear a uniform and I a robe, sir; but there is a man beneath, and I prefer my réle to yours.’’ The otner barristers became exasperated; every- body for a moment appearea seized with the desire to go 1m for a free fight; but that amusement was happily avoided by the calmness of the Presi- dent, who desired that the trial should proceed, ‘There have been more persons tn Court to-day, but Yertunately the number could be easily counted, for the heat has been intense. Yesterday we were boiled, to«lay we have been roastea, The fair sex, asusual, predominated. Gally dressed ladies scra- nized with opera glasses THE ACCUSED, but thax examined them as they would wild beasts, with evident disgust, for they are ao ugiy lot. Not | one of them is a “dear duck of @ man,’’ whose good looks would in the female mind atone for the de- struction of Paris. The first witness examined spoke In so low @ tone that his evidence was ip- audible and the same remark applics in lesser de- gree to the other witnesses, among whom were several turnkeys, a priest and some women. The evidence was damning against Ferré, who but rarely asked a question in cross-examinpation. When the handwmiting exoert was called small pedantic, elderly man, dressed in an eveuing suit of black, white neckcioth and crushed hat made his appearance, Ferré could not suppress his laughter. As each withess added tothe | mass of damnatory evidence agp Ferré, the ace cused on trial became ihe sole point of interest. ‘Nhe side of the riding ool from which a glimpse of ve celebrated Communist could be obtained became more densely packed, and he became more ghasily paie. Could he have heard the remarks of those by Whom he was surrounded ali confidence woula have forsaken him, His condemnation to death would be the cause of general rejoicing. AS THE DAY PROGBESSED ‘no circumstance of importance enlivened the pro- | ceedmgs. The questions pui to the witnesses vy | the accused and the objections taken by the | counsel were of little importance. One of the wit- nesses, after a lengthened examination, addressed the President, m answer to a question, as “Mon | Colonel.’ This was objected to by one of tie advo- | cates, who declared he should have saia “Monsieur | ! le Juge.” The witness was resworn and re-ex- | amined. As yet the funny witness has not made his appearance. Where is he?

Immense time was occupied in repetitions of the ‘rame facts by witnesses who saw or heard of the execution of the hostages at La Roquette, but could not swear that Ferré was present. Many described the member of the Commune who commanded the firing party as a fair man, whereas Ferré is dark. One witness, who, in mis deposition was made to identify Ferré, said he had been misrep- resented by the Juge d’instrucuon, and, though much pressed, positively refused .o confirm what he had been made to say. Another witness who was expected to identify Ferré, pointed to Lullier asthe man who shoi the hosiages. Luller, who ‘movt certainly was not concerned in that matter rose and laughed. This witness, a horse stealer on his own confession, and appearing in a prison dress excited langnter by saying that when he heard the Archbishop was shot he thought it was all up with him. Another convict, a youth of ten, said that WHEN THE ARCHBISHOP WAS LED OUT FOR BXECO- ‘TION ne was much insulted and taunted with havi done nothing for the Commune; to which he repli that he had written to Versailles, but receive answer. ‘This confirns the statement in @ letter of the Archbishop, pubjished in the papers, which was thought apocryphal, A YOUNG PRIEST, BY WAY OF DEPOSITION, delivered with much emphasis a Jong, studied speect, larded with rhetorical phrases and trrele- vant matter, He had a ce'l in La Roquette, next to the Archbishop of holy and regrettable memory. His cell was a comfortable one and contained a chair; or at least a place where a chair might have stood, though, a8 @ matter of fact, there was none. Presi- “ent Bonjean, who was as food of work as of jus- tice, nad a cell where the sun annoyed him. ‘it~ ness talked two hours witn Bonjean, and desired to say that when he called his wife a sainted compan- ion, he used @ right expression. Sacrificing him- self, he being young and strong, with the greatest pleasure he had put the Archbishop in his wn aod, own cell, and afterwards exchanged with Bonjean, He heard @ warder on the morn- ing of tne execution sa) to__Bonjean, “Come down just as you are.”” Bonjean knew what ‘Was coming and said, ‘Tell my Wile I die with her remembrance in my heart.’’ From his cell he saw the six victims going to die—he must be allowed to say, as Martyrs for order, justice, religion, truth apd liberty. He heard the firing, but did not see them shot, except with the eyes of the mind. All this and much more of the same sort the Court listened to in imperturbvabie patience. IMPRESSIONS OF A MISSIONARY. An apostolic missionary, one of the hostages, de- scribed his impressions of the execution at La Roquette, and heard a Communist say, “We must make an end of these Versailles banuits.”” A PRISONER'S EVIDENCE, Francois, a prisoner in Mazas, under sentence dis- qualitying him from using. a@ witness, was ex- is evidence is called amined but not sworn. a mere renseignement, the effect of which 1 cannot explain, He was head jailer of La Roquette on the day of the execution, He delivered the nostages on # written order signed by Raoul Rigault, Ferré and a third person; could not say if the signature of Ferré was in Dis handwriting; aid not see Ferre on that day. No other witness identifed Ferré as personally concerned in the execution of the hostages, Tne evidence against Ferré was then concluded, ASSI WAS NEXT BXAMINED. He replied {reely and with great fluency to every question. He held his handsome head erect and never for @ moment lost his seif-possession. In answer to the first question of the dent he, did not seem to deny his aMlation to the International Soclety, but wished to explain that, by the rules, a member who did not attend for a certain time ceased to belong to the society, and he believed he was in that position; was @ member of the Central Committee; is a Freemason; was at the Central Committee on the 10th of March; Was not atthe Rue des Rosieres; knew nothing of the executions of Generals Thomas and Le Comte, The National Guard had been attacked, he admit- ted signing an order to make barricades ana stand on the deiensive, was on that evening made Gov- ernor of the Hotel de Ville and colonel of National Guards; he was elected Mayor of the Eleventh ar- rondissement by 20,000 votes, and still considered himself a better representative of the Commune than those who had not polled a quarter of the number; he did not know that the Versailies gov- ernment was a regular one, but he knew the Na- tional Guards were carefully armed, and it was dis- graceful for soldiers to be disarmed. ‘The President observed that it was no to lay down arms in obedience to orders, ‘Assi Maintained what the government which surren- dered to the Prussians could not be allowed to disarm the National Guard. He was in prison for Jour day: hved with General Bergeret av the Hotel de Ville; after April 13 he was at the head of the manufactures of munitions, for which bis Shite ntted him; had ordered explosive a Assi Went on to say that he had not opposea the law on .be hostages, but should not himself nave executed them; had sald the only way to save their brethren at Versailles was to threaten re- prisals: aun eye for an eye was his maxim. (Gaveau exciaimed, ‘you take three eyes for one.””) He Dad gigned th: éecree for pulling down the Vendome Column; other decrees imputed to him he had not Signed, but admitied he had not protested. and never thought of resigning on account of them. He denied ail knowledge ol ietters produced, alleged to have been written to him by the International Society. He denied a Signature which the experts swore Was his. DID NOY ORDER THE EXECUTION OF GENERALS LE COMTE AND THOMAS. The President of the Court said to Assi~‘You | gave the order for the assassination of Generals Le. mte and Phomas on the Isth of March?” “it 18 false,” replied he, “Were you not tne chief of the Commone against the government ?"” “Yes,” said Aa’; “you attacked cepted the struggle.” “And you vuted for the massacre of the host- 39? ext * again was the firm reply; ‘‘becanse when at war 1t is necessary to resort to retaliation.” Murmurs of indignation arose among the audi- ence, but Assi only smiled disdaintully. THE BURNING OF PARIS. The President asked, “Why did you purchase sul- phur and coal; you wished to burn down Paris ‘The accused retorted by observing that they (the troops) bad done their worst by firing explosive Shells into the city. “It is iniamous |’ cried the Public Prosecutor, greatly moved, “You made requisitions for petroleum? “It was unnecessary to do 80,’’ replied Assi, “the forts were full of 1t.”” A Wituess was subsequently brought forward who acposed that after the massacre of Captain Regalier Assi sent 1,000f, to his widow.

VERSAILLES, August 9, 1871. Delsant, the counsel for Clement, asked the Court that several origtnal documents which had been abstracted from the prosecution, and which the prisoner's counsel required to see, should be re- stored, Commander Gavean objected to the word abstracted, and said that authentic coptes were at the service of the desence. M.
