Relations with Mexico.

it has been intimated in several of oul
Northern exchanges that possibly wal
with Mexico will be the ultimate consc
qHence of the rejection of the Gadsder
treaty. The Washington Union in com
menting nthe matter has the following
which, coming from journal in the conf
dence of the Administration deserves atten
ton:
We are not greatly disappointed in the
fate Of the treaty recommended to the Sen,
ate by the President, but we are disappoint.
ed to learn that after that was repudiated
and another substituted in its place by the
Senate, the substitute was then in its turn
repudiatcd, and all our difficulties with Mex.
leo left unadusted. The President had dis.
charged his duty in the premises in the best
manner practicable under all the circum.
stances but in that spirit of patriotic con.
ciliation which he felt to be essential in the
case, he stood ready to receive such sug-
gestive counsels as the Senate might make,
and to give to them all the consideration due
to the matured conclusion of so august a
body.
Unfortunately for the best interests Of
the country, the responsibility is now thrown
upon the President Of commencing anew
the difficult task of settling the questions
WHICH threaten to disturb our peaceable re-
lations with a neighboring government.--
This responsibility is in no degree lightened
by the wise counscls of the Senate, but, on
the contrary, is rendered doubly embarrass.
ing by the very fact that whilst his first at
tempt has been unsatisfactory to the Senate,
they. have given to him no intimations by
which his future. efforts. may be benefited.
But embarrassing as is his position, the
President will not shrink from the response
bility which ATTACHES 'p it,. =.
"He compreheIAst fully the threatening
character of SONG of:tIe questions involved
between; Mexico and anr. government; he
feels sensibly the importance. at this time of
removing all cause of esrangementbetween
the two governments; he understands tho.
roughly our rights as involved in the unad.
justed questions; and whilst he is resolved
10 maintain them at all hazards, he will spare
no efforts, consistent with the honor Of our
government, to avoid war. If so direful
calamity shall befall the country, the re.
sponsibity will not rest on him; but we will
not yet despair Of an amicable settlement of
the questions which, are now exciting so
much public attention, and deem it not un.
reasonable to indulge the hope that the re.
cent action Of the Senate will not prove to
be final"

INEBR1ErY.-When this vice has taken
fast hold Of man, farewell ndustry-iare.
well emulation-farewe attention to things
worthy of attenlion-iarewell love Of virtu-
Gus society-larewell decency of manners
and farewell to even an attention to per-
son. Every thing is sunk by this predomi-
nant and brutal appetite. In how many in
stances do we see nen who have begun
life with the brightest prospect before them,
and who have closed it without amy of COM
fort and consolation! Young men with
good fortunes, good talents, good tempcrs,
good constitutions, only being drawn into
the vortex Of the drunkard, have become by
degrees, the most loa,hsome and despicable
of mankind. In the house of the drrnkard
there is no happiness for any ore. All is

mings. When he will isc, or when he will
lie down to rest, is wholly a matter of
chance. That which he swallows for what
he calls pleasure, brings pain rs surely as
night brings morning. Poverty and misery
are in the train. 10 avoid these results, we
are called upon to make no sacrifice. Alb
s,nence requires no aid to accomplish it
Our own will is all that is requisite; and if
we have not the will to avoid contempt, dis
grace and misery, we deserve neither relief
nor compassion.

EDUCATION IN VIRGISIA-Thc Richmond
Wing argues the necessity for adopting a more
efficient system Of education in that State. 1t
says:
Every decade exhibits rapid and fearful IN
crease ofthis mass Of Ignorance. In 1910, the
number Of the unlettercd il Virginia amounted
to 10000. In 1850 it Exceeded $4,000. At
this rate it will not require many centuries to
extngush all knowledge Of letters in the Stat" ."
The WASHINGTON STAR SAYS" Colonel
Colt will realize a stupendous fortune out Of
the Eastern war. The Russians will be armed
mostly with his rcvolvers, and so will most of
the officers in tho English and French armies"
DEATH FROM DRINKING PINT OF LIQUOR

fu-nace--his counteuance looked hasgard
like that Of maniac; and ever and anon,
he flung his long, bony arms on high, as il
grasping after thundrholts. He drew pic

in comparison hell itself might be considered
beautiful. He painted the slanderer so black
the sun seemed dark at monday when
shining on such an accursed monster; and
then he fixed both portraits on the shrinking
brow of HOPKINS, that he nailed them there
forever. The agitation Of the audience
nearly amounted to madness.
All at once the speaker descended from
his periIous height. His voice walled out

her tears flowed fast"r--till men wept and
lovely women. sobbed like children.
He closed by strange exhortation to the
jury and bystanders. He entreated the pan.

for the plaintiff not to offer violence to the
defendant however richly he might deserve
it; in other words "not TO lynch the villain,
Hopkins, but leave it to God" This was
the most artful trick of all, and best calcu
