We beg leave te remind the people
of the lower end of town—in all kindness
—that lb* mud renders that quarter al
most impassible, so much so, that if the

bowto prevent tha cut worm. Th* president,
Messrs. Dr. Smith, J. H. Keller, Geo

Con ley and P. Kurtz participated ia th*
, discussion, eliciting almost as many causes
for th* failure of the corn to come up as
there were speakers—some attributing the
cause to the wet spring, others to the cold
v season, others to had seed. A committee,
consisting of John Arney, J AS. A. Keller,

less ever since, in consequence of which
plaintiff claims SIOO damage.
The defendants claim a right by inheri
tance to repair water pipes upon their land
by virtue of an agreement made by their
ancestors, the former owners, and that tht
plaintiff when hs putin his pipes stopped
defendant's water, and that they were ob
liged to disconnect Strohecker's pipe in
order to connect bis own, and that Stro
hecker was supplied by their pipes. In

Sir Garnet Wolseley and staff embarked

I* reinforced by forty-six officers and men of
. the Barracoota, landesl at Klmina, where
. they were joined by a party of 131 Uoussas.
. The Ashantees of the towns of Am pence,
Akiuifoo Aiuqusna (on the coast), and
Athenian Asaamou lialatid), having
frequently harbered and supplied the
Ashantees with aruis, Ac., were the ones
■ proceeded against-a large body of Ash
■ ante*- being reported to be in the vicinity
• of these towns.2 A party of men from the
i Barracouta garrioued forts M illiam and
i St. J ago a! Klmina, the Simoom's men
1 and batteries of the Naval Brigade garri- ,
soning Cap* Coast Castle and its forts.
■ The Argus and Decoy moved up the coast
• and anchored art' the Coesel Keefs, the (
steam launch of the Barracouta and the
paddle-box boats of the Argus going in-
side of the reefs, from whence their guns
were fired with great effect. On the three
first-named lewns at eight a m. on tha 14th
the Argus opened tire at 2.WX) yards range.
Immediately on landing the expedition on .
shore marched off about tour miles and a
half in a northeast direction, exchanging (
fire with the eneuiy as they went. The
field guns having been got into position
under a smart fire, most of the casual ities
happened here. The town of Kssecomew, 1
Essurubuno on the new map tmore proper
ly Kssamon), was taken and destroyed : J
The enemy were in large numbers in the; 1
bushes. Theirloes must have been con-,"
tiderable, but the bush ras so thick that 1
little could be seen of them. That townp
having been destroyed, the expedition
struck off at right angels for the westward,
for the coast at Ampenee and Akimfoo, i
and, taking the enemy thera in the rear,
drove them towards the sea. The Argus
and Decey landed their crews,
under the reefs (and under cover of their J
ship's fire*, thus forming a second naval
brigade. The whole force closing in, the
enemy was routed with great loss, but the
numbers of thsir killtd are not kuewn.
The places being destroyed, the general,)
Captain Freemanlie, and staff embarked
on board the Decoy and proceeded to ('ape
Coast Castle, the naval brigade and army l
marching back to Elrnina. The naval
brigade and marines being all (except
wounded) embarked before midnight, the
Argus returned to Elmina, the Barracouta (
to Cape Coast Castle- The naval brigade
is ready to land at the first signal. The (
steamer Warree has arrived aud gone on
to the Volta. where Captain Glover s ex-
pedilion is getting into splendid condition.
The report that the Ashantees had brok en j
up their camp at Meinpon and commenced
to retreat has caused considerable excite
inent here. On the morning of the 2tlh ; {
Sir Garnet Wolseley marched out with £
the marines amf a naval brigade, with the
intention of cutting off the retreat of the
Ashantees. His destination wae under-
stood to be Dunquah. According, how-
ever, to another report, the Ashantees
have advanced, and are within a few
miles of the town, while Sir Garnet Wolse f
ley has reached Aocraful. All the troops
from Elmina and Cape Coast are in the
bush, and severe fighting it heurlv ex
| peeled. fi
Intelligence bed reached Accra at the
beginning of October that the King of
Akhantee had assembled all hie fighting
men an J was marching with an army
straight on Cape Coast Castle. Another
army was advancing through the Akim
country on Chebie. A third army follows
that of the King at a reserve. If this in*
troniation is correct, all the arrangemenla
for Captain Glovers advance from the
Yolta will be upset Cape Coast Castle
itself is almost unprotected, most of the
West Indian troops being absent on de
tachment at fhe various forts on the coast
while, as to the Fantees, they are almost
useless as auxiliaries, having been thor
oughly cowed by a succession of defeats.
A FIGHT BETWEEN THE ENGLISH
AN D TU E ASH ANTEES.
Intelligence has been received of another
movement by the English forces against 1
the Asbantees on the Gold ceast. On Oct. 1
27 Col. Festing started from Dunguah with '
a force consisting of one hundred men of.
the West Indian Regiment, end two hun- ;'
dred native allies, Fantces and Uoussas. <
! The enemy were surprised in their camp. '
1 Aa engagement took place, and the Ash- <
I antees fled to the brush, from which they I
kept up a fire on Col. Feeling's inen. He
was thus placed at a disadvantage, the foe
being concealed and his men being expos- 1
ed in the open. By the aid, however, of a i
seven-pounder gun and a rocket tube the
Colonel was able to fight hit way back to
Dunguah. The native allies acted in a
cowardly manner, and the officers were
constantly exposed in their efforts to rally
them. Ofthe nine officers engaged, five
were wounded. The only serious wound
was that of Oapt. Godwin in the leftgrein
Porty-eigbt of the native allies were woun
ded, and one was killed.

THE SENTENCE RECEIVED WITH
CHEERS
Paris, Dec. 10.—The crowd at the Tri
anon to-<lay warmly cheered when the
verdict was rendered. The sentence in
cludes payment of costs and expulsion
from the Legion of Honor.
HISTORY OF THE CASE
The trial of Marshall Raisins began on
the morning ef October 6, in the.Palace of
the Grand-Trianon at Versailles, the Due
d'Aumale presiding. The Marshal had
been in prison since iho 10th of Ms?
1572 During the prelimnary examination*
which were held since that time and pre
vious to the trial the jvidence of mora
than 1.&00 (witnesses was taken. At the
trial just ended hundreds of witnesses
were examined, the most of them persons
of small not*. But oa the other hand
many of them were among the best known
soldier* of France. In the number of
these who have testified in defence of .the
Marshal ware ten generals ef division,
eight generals of brigade, five colonels,
several captains, surgeons, priests, Ac.
At the very beginning ot the trial iho
chance* seemed ominous to the prisoner,
and even at that time tha president of the
Court, the Due d'Aumale, was reported to
have declared tbat so conclusive was the
testimony against the Marihal that a sen
tence of death was almost certain against
the accused, although it was thought, in
case of such a result, he would either be
pardoned by tha Governmaat or have hi*
sentence commuted.
Tbe indictment against the Marshal
filled three large folio volumes. The re
port of General Rieiere, which consumed j
three day* In it* reading, gave the main
point* of accusation against the Marsha,
in connection with hi# alleged treason in j
his conduct at Mela. It arraigned birr, j
for having caused the defeat of the French j
at Forbach in consequence of his failuro to :
go U>[ General Frossard'a assistance. He
was also charged with having left Mar
shal Canrohert to contend at the battle of
St Frivat with only 3C.UCD against the
German army corps of 'JO,OOO, although
Canrobert repeatedly sent to bins for as
sistance. Among other specifications
against him was en* charging him. as
commander-in-chief of the French forces,
with the primary rcponsibility for the
catastrophe of Sedan, in that ho failed in
a critical moment to communicate with
Marshal MacMahon, or that he connived
at tbe interception of his depatches to
that officer by Colonel Stoflfel, directors of
tho Intelligence Department of Marshal
MacMahon's staff. He was accused of
treasonable communications with the
enemy and of clandestine war upon the
than aiiating Government of h ranee
in favor of of the banished Im
perial Gevcrnmant, by M.
Rcgnler, an emissary of the Empress and
a person in the confidence of the German*
and, in consequence of this interview, of
sending General Bourbaki upon a mission
le the Empre'i in London. The report
further declared that the Marshal (never
intended or desired to leave Met*, and
that be was holding his army intact in
thatcity in order,>t the fitting moment,
and in conjunction'with a secret under
standing with tho Germans, to restore tbe
empire and the Napoleons 'whose forfeit
ure had been declared by the Government
of National* Defence.
As the trial pregretscd Marshal Bazaine
was examined at great length through sev
eral Consecutive days by the President of
of the Court, and gavo his version of tho
difficulties by which lie was surrcundod
and denied in detail the accusations against
him regarding bis conduct toward Goner
ul Frossard and Marlliul MacMulion.
Uc declared himself innocent of the defeat
at Forbach, and in regard to MacMahon's
movements he asscrtod that he did not re-
ceive prociso information of that
commander's situation in time to pre
vent the disaster at Sedan. He also pro
tested that he had sent to Canrobert at the
battle of St. l'rivat all tho assistance that
he had asked for. In a general justifica
tion of him elf against charges concerning
his conduct after the 18th of August, be
brought forward tba orders that he had
received to be cautious in his movement*.
In support of many of his statements
made during his examination ho offered
numeroa* affidavits. The Marshall's ex
planation of his conduct were received
witb)coolnes* by the Due d'Aumale, and
his self-vindicatory evidence loft an un
favorable impression on the mind* of those
who listened to it. Referred to Regnicr's
mission, bo asserted that he never treated
it as a serious matter, and he explained
his capitulation of Metz by declaring that
ha could not do otherwise than surrender
as the provisions in the city were exhaust
ed. He seid in regard to tho convention
which ho had concluded with the Ger
mans looking to the surrender, that hie
position was such that in a certain
sense his own government, and that being
in the presence of an insurrectionary gov-
ernment (that of the National Defence)
he could not fulfil the duties of a military
chief, which, under the legal Government
are strictly defined. At tho time he capit
ulated "there was then iro government.
Thero was nothing," lie said. To this ob
servation tho Due d'Aumalo responded,
sternly; "What I France then no lunger
existed I" —ii remark which produced a
sensation. He defended liitnielf against
lite charge of conspiring to ro-e*labli*h
the regency ef the Rniprei*, nnd asserted
that lie wt.hcd to obtain en armistice with
the view of I'ltuhliihing a regular govern
ment in France. In response to n que**
lieu a* to whether el! hi* art* and thought*
were ler hie country a id the aruiy, he re

The result ot tin, commutation of Ha*

sidence in a place designated by the gov*
arauient, where he wilt be under the im
mediate and constant surveillance of the
police during the rntire period of hia ae

he will at no time be lodged in jail, or re
stricted in his daily habits or persona)
movements. He is to bo spared the hu
miliation of any ceremony in his degrade
lion from hit rank in the army, but he ha
ceased to be a marshal ol France or even
an officer In her aruiy, and likewise loses
his position in the legion of lienor and all
the other orders with which he had been
decorated. Altogether, the punishment to
he meted out to him is quite as humilia

the original sentence of the court.
