from the city Of Mexico by telegraph, under

1t is proper to add that the despatch received

THE ELECTION.


The result Of the city election is now known
in an official form. The Benton party have
gained partial triumph, SO far as mere offic al
place is concerned, but they have certainly sus
tsined disastrous defeat upon the great and
only important issue before the people-an issue
which BLAIR. KAYsER & Co, furnished them
srlves--we alIude TO the City Extension Law.
The sceptre in their hands is barren one un-
der the circumstances; for it is powcrless over
the darling measure they intended tn effect tor
their own benefit. Their position is hum,liating
rather than honorable for while they have been
elevated by the mere machinery Of party, their
policy has been scru,inized and pronounced
against. We can conceive Of no more degra-
ding position than the one they occupy-it is
body without soul. shadow without substance
Z dignity without honor. Theirs is an empty
victory. The standard under which they tough,
tfsils Ia the dust. and they bivouac only on the
sterile held # old partisan strife. With this de
eision cf The people against the great measure Of
their leaders, they most g. TO work with The ut

their constituents can entertain but limited
respect for their judgment; and timiditv on one
side and distFust On the other, will hardly be
productive Of am very energetic action. Ex-
tension vas the war cry OF the leaders, the rail-
lying call Of their orators, the theme of their
editors; and while their well disciplined bands,
b. the mere fnrce Of habit, came together un
Ger Old party banners, they, 10 their honor be il
said have refused to be marshalled for Exten-

MINISTER TO SPAIN.

The appointment Of Pierre So,,le, of Louis.
lana, to be envoy extraordinary and minister
plenipoteniiary at the court OF Madrid, will BE-
regarded by the country as an eminenlly judi
cions and appropriate selection. For reasons
which we need not sugges', perhaps higher
order Of diplomatic accomplishment is requisite
for the competent representation of the interest
IF this country in Spain than at any other of
the European courts. That Mr.. Soue is pecu-
liarly and eminently qualified for The mission to
Madrid, will be conceded by those even who
entertain the most exaggerated estimate of its
Importance. In the Senate Mr. Sou!e has been
distinguished for his familiar acquaintance with
the foreign relations # the country. The shf,-
ing COMPLEXITIES of European politics have in
anespecial manner engaged his attention. Tie
is as perfect master Of the Spanish as of the
French language. With the advantage of these
rare but essential attainmeEts. and of that intel
lectuai ability for which MIR Soule enjoys s.,
high reputation throughout the Union, he will
not fail to justify the cnoice Of the adminis,ra
ton by the vigilant, prudent, energetic, and
efficient support of the interests OF his country
These interests could not have been intrusted
to more competent and faithful guardian =

DIED,

DIED,
This morning, April I3th, at 6 O'Clock, ADA daughter
of u nry A. and Mary Wiltse, aged years, months
and days.
In Dubuque, Iowa, at the residence Of her
son-in-law, Vim. Ashley Jones, Esq, On Tues
day, April 18th, 1853, Mas. ISABELLA BURT,
aged IS years, months and days.
The deceased was native Of Kelso, Scot
land, and was born September Sd, l776 Her
husband, the late Andrew Burt, was also ma
tive of Scotland They were married at Bal,i
more, Md, on the gath of May, 1893. Previ
Gus to their maria re, her husband was mid
shipmnn in the British Navy. and was subse-
quently for many years, Receiving and Paying
Teller in the Union Bank at Baltimore. In
1918, they removed to Maysville, KY, thence
t. ST. Louis, Mo, in 1890, and afterwards TO
Potos;, in the latter State. where Mr. Burt died
on the 29h of April, 1889, aged 6a years, IL
months and days He was the Secretary of
he ST.. AsDREws SOCIETY of Baltimore, and
was greatly esteemed and honored by his native
and adopted countrymen resident OF Baltimore,
but after his removal West, though fro qurntIy
rendered highly honorable aud lucrative public
stations, such was his love of retirement ard
reading, that he uniformly declined every offer
of the kind. For her whom it has now pleased
the Almighty to call from earth to Heaven, we
can say, that she has nobly performed the
womans par, in lfe-she was all that the afftc-
Tomato wife, the tender mother, and sincere
friend could be, and was withal the true chris
'ian, from whose door the poor and needy have
not gone away upprovded for. Though we
would not invade the sanctty Of SON, a
sansh ters grief fer the loss of one whose
tender soIicitude and love none other can bear
hem, by any feeble Effort our part to console
hem under this affecting bereavement yet we
would assure the m that she died amidst friends
who Loved her as they did-that every kindness
which affection could suggest was shewn her
that every effort which The best medical skill
could make was made, and dbore oil, that even
n the hour of her dissolution, she uttered no
ears of death-her unwaverihg faith IN Him |
Who sufft red for her sake, aud strong hopes Of |
blessed immortality, having been equal to
very trial. She had been many years profes
or at christianity, and was foil TO her last |
esting place by numerous relatives, and large
nncourse of friends and acquaintnnces

from whence, leaving her burden, she returned,
and, in like manner, carried over in safety each
