ResolUed, That while we are ready TO sup
port the government of the country to the
utmost, in maintaining every great national in

honor OF the country wholly free from spot or

FROM HAVANA AND MEXICO.

BY the arrival Of the Empresario, Capt. Collins,

On The 9th inst, the royal ma-steamer Midway
Her dates from the city of Mexico are only to the
9th ullimo--two days later than we have received
direct.
The mail-sleamer Tweed arrived the same day
from jamaica, with $50 TASKS Of quicksilver. The
same day, too, the French brig of war La Mercure
arrived from Pensacola.
II is stated in the Faro Industrial that Baron Al
leye de Cyprey was passenger on the Midway.
Pensacola accounts had incorrectly mentioned that
he took his passage on the Eurydice.
In leaving Vera Cruz, the British steamer met the
Spanish frigate Christina, which left Havana on
the 18th ultimo.
General Canalizo the ex-provisional president Of
Mexico, has taken passage, with his son, from Ha-

The Mexican troops stationed at Jalapa-which,
according to some estimates, amounted to 1000
men-have been ordered into environments at Paso de
Ovejas, a small place half way between Vera Cruz
expected daily in Vera Cruz, when the Midway
sailed, intending 10 remain there.
The incident in regard to the sailing Of the St Ma

with men of like chaTacter--a Caristian, scholar,
philosopher, and a practical repubiican. Unfortu-
nately, the minds Of the American clergy have been
mised on the great question OF popular rights and
interests As body, respect their talents, their
integrity, and their beneficial influence. Yet, the
men who, Of all others, under the benign in
auence Of the benevolent religion Of the divine
Saviour OF men, should most deeply sympathize
with the in all their rights, their interests,
their wrongs, and their success, unfortunately do
not always sympathize with the political principles,
or the political party, whose aim is to elevate the
popular mind, TO throw a bulwark around popular
rights, and to protect in its purity, and in It's most
healthy exercise, the great system OF selfgovern-
ment
Bishop McCoskry, of Michigan, has arrived in
this city, and preached last Sabbath with his usual
ability, and with great acceptance. He is appoint
ed to supply the place of the former bishop OF this
diocese. A better selection could not have been
made. Bishop Nee. possesses pure, and unblem-
ished, and unsuspected moral character He is a
working man. He labors AS il he had great work
to do, and a short time to do il in. In Michigan.
neither bad roads, nor high waters, nor stormy
weather prevented him from faithful and prompt
discharge of his high duties There, he did much
to popularise the church, and to exert Almost happy
and lasting influence upon that new and Furnishing
young State. In this diocese he will be most ac-
ceptable and useful. His labors here will prove a
great blessing to this great diocese.
Bishop McCoskry spent several years as cadet
at West Point; from thence he entered and gradu-
ated at Dickinson college, at Carlisle, Pennsylvania,
when under the presidency of the great and cele-
brated DR.. Mason. He was admitted as practi-
toner at the bar in Pennsylvania and in this pro-
fession was engaged for year or two, with highly
encouraging prospects. He soon entered upon the
ministry; and, in very short time, when a very
young man, was chosen bishop Of Michigan. He
is now comparatively young man, to fill his pres
ent responsible positipn. trust his purity of life
his bameess morals, his zeal and industry, his tai.
ents, and his mild and winning afability of man
ner will render him eminently useful here

fully made that overture will well rceoleet our re-
zponse. and how gravely it was rejected.
We may refer to another incident Of these by
gone events. Our excellent and accomplished
friend, Mr.. Hunter, addressed the Virginia conyen
ton referred to in the 'etters."' II was power
full and eloquent speech which he delivered upon
that occasion. 1t was distinguished, too, for its
spirit of conciliation and yet in several important
aspects, il became Indispensable that some one
should reply to it. The editor Of the Union,
constrained by the indisposition Of any other
person to undertake that duty, encouatered the
task hims, Well do we recolect the spirit which
animated us upon that occasion. Well do we re-
member how heartily we commended whatever
was advanced to the end Of promoting the unity of
the democratic party in Virginia. We shall never
forget the propitous result which soon followed.
The Calhoun men manfully came forward, de-
claring the great objects and purposes which they
had at heart The existence of great political prn
cpes the Of certain great measures the de-
feat of Others all these constituted the bonds of
sympathy, uniting them with all their political
friends in common exertion.
Never did men play nobler part than did the
friends Of MIR. Calhoun in Virginia. Combining
with the greatest zeal in the general cause the most
brilliant and commanding abilities, our triumph in
that State is greatly-very greatly--to be ascrbed
to those who have been known as the friends,
par srceiienee of Mr.. Calhoun. We expressed in the
midst of the capyass--we declared, when the pres-
Dental battle was overland we reiterate now, our
thanks and gratitude for the great and signal services
rendered in 1884, by that branch Of the democratic
party which has been distinguished in political
nomenclature as "Calhoun." We very much doubt
whether the State of Virginia could have been car
red for the democratic party without the great aid
Of the Calhoun men.
But may we not inquire, with unaffected contempt
who are the correspondents, to whose accusations
we design to offer word Of replyi We may well
be a little ashamed for the man himself in publicly
disclosing the real name ofthat celebrated correspon
dent who assumes the signature Of LIE Solitaire"
in the New York Courier and Enquirer. Mr. Cyril
v. Grey has been fortunate enough to acquire no.
toriety, of which the mask of ''Le Solitaire'' will
never deprive him. lie is most fit and worthy

worthy, in all respects, of the New York Courier
