THE DUC D’ENGHIEN’S DEATH.

An interesting account of the death of the Duc D’Enghein is given in the mem- virs of Mdme. de Remusat. On the even- ing before it occurred, Mdme. de Remu- sat remarked that Mdme. Bonaparte was unusually sad; and as they were driving together to Malmaison she learned that the reason was that Bonaparte had sent M. de Coulaincourt to the frontier to arrest the Duke D’Enghien. The wife of the first Consul had pleaded with Napoleon that the Duke’s life should be spared, but in vain. ** Women,” he said, ‘*‘ must not in- terfere in such matters. My policy re- quires a coup d’ etat; this will enable me to act more mildly in future, while if I show mercy in the present case, 1 shall be ex- posec to a whole series of conspiracies. The Royalists would have compromised me, and I must, therefore, set myself right with the Jacobins. Besides the Duc d’ Eng- hien is implicated in the conspiracy of Georges Cadondal; he disturbs France, serves the English, and _ influences the army by his military qualities; while after hisdeath the troops would entirely give |up the cause of the Bourbons. In _ politics {a death which gives peace to the country isnotacrime.” On the following day Mdme. Bonaparte told Mdme. de Reumsat that the Duke would arrive that evening in Paris, and would be shot at Vincennes. She added that Murat was constantly ex- citing the First Consul against the Duke and suggesting to him that the Jacobins were furious at_the moderation shown by the Government. At dinner Bonaparte re- marked that Mdme. de Reumsat looked very pale, and asked her why she had not put on rouge. ‘* There are two things,’ 'ghe said, ‘‘which are becoming to women ; rouge and tears.””’ He seemed in very good spirits, and joked with his wife ‘** with more freedom than propriety.”” Next morning M. Savary came to tell Mdme. Bonaparte that all was over. The Duke behaved with great courage, refusing to have his eyes bandaged and only begging the soldiers not to miss him. Eugene Beauharnais and several generals approved of the execution, and the leader of the Jacobins said of Napoleon, ‘‘Now he belongs to us.” Bonaparte afterwards asked his wife whether Mdme. de Remusat was much im- pressed with the news, to which Jose- phine answered that she burst into tears on hearing it. ‘‘ That is natural,” he said, ‘‘she did what a woman ought to do; but all will soon be quiet again, and people will admit that I did not do a foolish thing.” General Hullin, who played the principal part in the arrest and execution, a richly rewarded by Napoleon, who,

:

however, always disliked hint afterwards, ,saying: ‘His presence disturbs me; I do not like the recollections he awakens in ime.” On the day after the execution, ‘Napoleon was silent during dinner; but | when it was over, he said, as if answering himself: ‘‘ At any rate, they now know what I am capable of, and it is to be hoped they will ieave me alone.” After dinner

Eg. he spoke with M. de Fontanes about vari-

.ous French kings. Henry IV., he said, /was not a great man; for he wanted dig- nity. ‘‘A sovereigu must avoid being good- | natured. }that one isa man like themselves. Alex- ander the Great showed a true political |instinct in tracing his descent from a god.”

| NAPOLEON'S THREATENED INVASION OF ENG- | LAND.

Doubts have frequently been expressed | whether Napoleon really intended to in- vade England in 1804. A curious incident tends to contirm the impression that he did. : He had a die engraved by Devon in antici- ‘pation of the event ; and from ihis die a number of medals were struck, with the obvious intention of being issued from ‘London, should the invasion prove success- ful. On the obverse of the medals is a | finely-cut bust of Napoleon (the head bound ‘with « laurel-wreath) encircled by the legend, ‘* Napoleon Emp. et Roi.” On the reverse is a spirited design of Hercules con- quering Antzeus—the features of the Her- cules being modelled after the Napoleonic type. The principal inscription on the re- verse is *' Descente en Angleterre.” These _ words are cut in large capitals. In smaller icharacters beneath the feet of the group are the words, ‘* Frappe in Londres, 1804.” This inscription settles the question that the invasion was really contemplated, and establishes the curious fact that Napoleon felt so certain of victory as to have a com- memorative medal prepared, witha boastful

inscription, declaring it to have been struck in the conquered English capital. Of ‘course when the invasion was abandoned ‘these medals were carefully put aside ; but ‘some of them were discovered in one of the ‘government oflices after the battle of | Waterloo, and a number were presented as curiosities to the English ministry. One of them, an excellent impression in bronze, _is in the possession of a collector at Birm- ingham, in England.

THE DOOM OF MALMAISCN,

| Malmaison, despite its interesting his- | torical associations, is doomed to destruc- ‘tion. Already the park surrounding it has been converted into building lots upon which villas, such as the Sairsian Bourgeois delights in, are rapidly springing up, and the chateau itself, which has passed into private hands, is said to be on the eve of demolition. Its only occupant at present ,is an old French caretaker, who has been ‘employed in the chateau for nearly half a century. She has a curious story to tell of a strange and romantic coincidence with the meiancholy fate of the late Prince Im- ‘perial. It would appear that a few days before the outbreak of hostilities between \France and Germany the youthful Prince ' visited Malmaison and spent several hours in the park at play. As he was about to / return to Paris towards evening, a violent ‘thunderstorm burst over the park, and a

It is foolish to remind people |

VOL. 23.—NO. 118.

magnificent tree which had been planted by Napoleon I., in the presence of Empress Josephine, was struck by lightning. The people inhabiting the neighborhood of Malmaison thought fit to interpret this natural accident as an evil omen for the Prince Imperial. The tree was seriously injured, and every effort was made to save its life, but in vain. It gradually withered and died. Late in the spring of 1879, the intendant of the chateau gave orders that it should be cut down, as well as some other damaged timber defacing the park. On the Ist of June, accordingly, the shattered Napoleonic tree was felled to the earth, and that very day the gallant Prince Im- perial was slain by Zulu assegais in far- distant Africa. He, strangely enough, was the last Napoleon who set foot in Mal- maison Park, and the coincidence of his

melancholy fate with that of the tree planted by his great ancestor was, to say the least of it, a most remarkable fulfil-

ment of a dismal forecast, the offspring of popuiar superstition. —London Telegraph.

If anything were needed to add a touch of interest to the pathetic story of the Prince Imperial’s death in Zululand, it is furnished in the statement recently made public by Messrs. Dent, the watchmakers. In 1878, a gold watch bearing the monogram ‘*N” was made by their firm for the Empress Eugenie for presentation to the young Prince. his week the battered back of the watch, still bearing the monogram, was brought to their establishment by Messrs. Weill and Harburg, who informed them that six years ago it had been bought by a client of theirs at Kimberley from a Zulu. The diamond fields attract native workers from every tribe in South Africa; and so in the fulness of time it came about that the broken remnant of the watch torn from the poor slain Prince in that obscure Zululand donga where he met his death, has found its way to its original makers, from whom, probably, it will pass to the Empress. Perhaps the Zulu who sold the back-plate was himself a participator in that strangely improbable yet, as it turned out, possible drama of death in which the Imperial hope of France fell so untimely. Nothing is impossible in history. Who, twenty years since, could have dared to fortell that the great-nephew of the great Napoleon would, within the year, fall before the assegais of a barbarous tribe in the interior of Africa. —St. James's Budget, 16th June, 1888.

THE RESULT OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION FORETOLD.

‘** I prophesied,” said Colonel Barre, *‘en passing the Stamp Act in 1765, what would happen thereon; and I now, in March, 1769, I now fear I can prophesy further troubles; that if the whole people are made desperate, finding no remedy from parliament, the whole continent will be in ‘arms immediately, and perhaps these pro- vinces lost to England for ever.” This was tin March, 1769, and certainly a very re- |markable prediction.—Professor Smyth's

The Tobique Murder.

|THE ATTEMPT TO GET MISS PHILLIPINE TO PERJCRE HERSELF CONDEMNED BY JUDGE

| WETMORE —THE PROSECUTION IN THE CASE CLOSED.

[Special to the Daily Telegraph. |

In opening court on Saturday, his Honor iJudge Wetmore, referring to the attempt, {on Friday, to induce Miss Phillipine to re- tract the statement she had made concern- ing her brother, who is one of the prisoners, ysaid that it was evident that an endeavor had been made to induce this woman to commit perjury by one person, whom she named at the time, and the other she des- cribed. When any case is being heard in court, and an attempt made, such as appears to have been made in the case of Miss Phillipine, to suborn any witness, the crime is a most aggravated one. In this case the attempt has been made, if the girl’s statement can be relied on. The offence has been committed, und the at- torney general, he considered, should in- vestigate it and take the necessary steps to bring to justice the guilty parties.

The Attorney-General—The matter has been receiving some consideration at my hands. Iam collecting informstion and have been given to understand who the other person is who associated with Mr. Ellis. He was on the grand jury during the sessions of the court and his name is Enoch Lovely. 1 will see that the matter is attended to without delay.

The forenoon was taken up in hearing the evidence of David Jenkins, Cromwell Trafton, Dr. Welling, Dr. Wiley, Henry G. Fullerton and Wm. Harris, all of whom gave testimony in substance the same as they gave at the previous examinations.

The court then adjourned for dinner. On reassembling of the court Sheriff Tibbitts took the stand and deposed to having taken into his possession the rifles handed him by Constable Jenkins. In the full magazine \rifle there were seven cartridges and there were two in the other rifle. He found two sinall shells in Day’s house where Trafton resided after the inquest. The hat worn by the deceased when shot wasshown. The At- torney-General then proceeded to prove by the sheriff some admissions made by the prisoner, Phillipine, since hisconfinement in jail, but upon Mr. Gregory interposing to examine the sheriff preliminary to accept- ing the evidence of the admissions, it ap- neared that the sheriff had, at the request of the attorney general, taken the prisoner from his cell into a private room in jail for the purpose of being questioned by the at- torney general and Mr. Sharp, constable of St. John, whom the attorney general had introduced to the sheriff as a detective of the Pinkerton agency, and the testimony of the sheriff not being satisfactory as to caution being given the prisoner beture he was questioned, or at what stage of the
