MEXICO.

Tho New York Tribune publishes tho fol-
lowing statistics Of Mexico, which. will be
found Interesting al the present time. II
will be seen that that distracted and unl,ap-
py republic contains the physical elements Of
great and powerful nation. Nevertheless,
she furnishes striking exempli6cation Of the
truth that true national wealth and greatness
must consist in the spirit and virtue Of The
people; and that degradation, misery and
dishonor, may easily dwell where the skies
arc most serene, ~ soil most fertile, and the
bowels Of the earth TEEN with gems and gold.
" According 10 the best authorities we
have been able TO consult, the population Of
Mexico in 1912 was 7,2OO,0OO, Of whom
1900. 900 were estimated as Indians; l..
O0O, 900 whites; 60OO blacks; 1000, 900 Of
various castles, such as Zambos, Mulattoes
SC.
In the city Of Mexico there are several
Collegiate Institutions of respectable grade
and standing, and within the last few year.
Schools have rapidly multiplied Throughout,
the entire Republic. About SO newspaper.
are published in the Cities and various Prov.
inces.

consistently with the national honor, to maintain
friendly relations with every country the face OF
the globe. This principle 30 long as we inirus led
with the management Of public affairs, will continue
to infusnce in respect to the settlement Of our u
fortunate differences with the United States Cheers
From this il will be perceived that the idea
Of " furnishing us with clothes" is the ruling
motive Of the English government. To ac-
complish this she has stricken down her corn
laws, and with this in view, she will not per-
nit the Oregon question TO disturb The sd.
jus.ment Of a policy in which the gorern-
ments Of both countries are united. England
is not more anxious to furnish US with
clothes" than our administration is 10 have
them. As 10 Furnishing them with bread''
when the American farmer is content to
labor for less than the half.fe hslf.clothed
serfs of the Baltic, then may VIC do il; and
perhaps not then for locality is against US.
The Baltic region would, in majority Of
cases, supply any sudden demand before we
were apprised oft; but, as rule, England
will produce her own bread, and merely call
upon the rest Of the world to make up an
occasional deficiency.

LICENSES The people Of New York
havo recently passed upon this question in
their respective primary assemblies, by a
direct vote, yea or nay, and the result is q
very decisive no. No license is tho vote
that comes from almost every town, and not
unfrcquently from erery town in county,
II is estimated that seven-tenths of the towns
and cities have taken ground against licenses.
Il, is proper, however, thats another fact
should be stated in connection with this re-
suit, viz: that the vote is very meager one.
The objects Of this election were to elect del
egatcs to constitutional convention, and de-
eide upon the license question but a revis-
ion Of the fundamental law, and a radical
change in the long established policy Of the
State, are not in these days subjects Of suf-
fcient importance to divert the attention Of
the masses from their every day pursuits,
while minor municipal election would have
rallied a multitude at tap Of drum. The truth
is, we talk very large Of our republican priv
iliges, and live but poorly up to them. And
this we say with particular reference 10 the
better informed portion Of community. Any
one who has had much to do with political
canvasses knows how exceedingly difficult it
is to secure the attendance of this class CT
community at important ELECTIONS like that
alluded TO. The right to vote involves the
