Couditiop of Things in Mexico.

This distracted country is now more cfazed
than ever. The latest news is constantly of
fights and outrages, and no matter which par
ty is uppermost violence and bloodshed is the
order of the day. At the last accounts from the
capital, fears of a general massacre of foreign
ers was felt The interference of the French
Minister in the affairs of the country at the
present crisis is looked upon with suspicion by
citizens of the United States. A eorrespon-
dent of the Times, writing from the city of
Mexico, says:
'In the meantime, this capital has been pre-
pairing for state of siege. Trenches and breast
works are being arranged outside of all the
garitaS The cause of this step of precaution
is found in general belief that in the next ten
days this city will be again besieged by the
enemy. Families in all the surrounding villages
have been deserting their homes in the past
week, and coming here. Three days ago or
ders were given for the suspension of the rail.

goes up through all the lonely streets Of this
capital, horrifying to the ear as the howl of
the hyena from a graveyard. Whether there
be or be not cause for all these so-called pre-
cautions, they certainly fit illustrations
for the capital of a country SO distracted and so
anarehiZed as Mexico has become"

A Sad Romance.

The Ell Paso correspondent of the Cincinnati
Times, writing from Camp Nov. 10Th, relates
the following sad romance
Among the killed in the late battle between
Major Van Dom's command and tie Canaan
ches, was Lieut.. Cornelius Van Camp, one of
the Second Cavalry, gallant and meritoriOus
young officer. He was betrothod to a young
lady from New York, the daughter of Captain
Jones, of the Mounted Rifles, now at Fort Bliss.
She, lovely and accomplished girl, had just
arrived at the fort from her home in the East,
and the marriage was to take place on the re-
turn OF the Lieutenant from his campaign
Nothing had been heard of the expedition for
several days, but all hoped for a speedy return
of the young soldier, with the laurels of an az
duous campaign. One day the fair girl was
exhibiting to her mother and friends her bridal
attire she had brought, when dispatches were
received from Major Van Dorm. They were
opened and contained the dreadful intelligence
that Lieut.. Van Camp was killed-shot through
the heart while in the thickest of the fight
Who can imagine the awful grief, the deadly
blight, which fell upon that young breast at the
fearful intelligence that thus blighted the dear
est hopes on earth

The Great Cincinnati Contempt Case.

Tuesday, Judge Mclean delivered his de-
cision in the case of Bell & Grant in the Ohio
Life aud Trust Company, in which the Sheriff
of Hamilton county and others had been at
tached for contempt of the U. S. Circuit Court
All save the Sheriff had purged themselves of
contempt and had been discharged. The
Sheriff as Receiver of the Superior Court, still
retained possession of the assets of the Trust
Company. The Judge maintained the jurisdic-
ton of the U. S. Court, on the question be-
tween the Circuit Court of the United States
and the Superior Court of Cincinnati, which
of the two first obtained possession of the as
sets of the Trust Company. The decision re-
quires the return of the assets by the Receiver
of the Superior Court to the possession of the
Receiver of the U. 5. Circuit Court, and upon
such return the Sheriff is to be exonerated from
liability

The Expedilion 70 Paraguay.

1t is understood that the plan of the Admins
tration, is, after the fleet which is now on its
way has made its rendezvous at Buenos Ayres,
to send up Commissioner BOwlin to AsunciOn
in one of the steamers, with demands on the
Government of Lopez for full and immediate
satisfaction; the remainder of the squadron as
cending the river as far as circumstances will
permit, and at a supporting distance. Should
he fail, the squadron will be put N notion and
all the vessels drawing from nine to twelve feet
will push on to their work, and the remainder
will lie at the bar at the mouth of the Parana,
and maintain a vigorous blockade of Paraguay.
This itself, it is believed, will be serious blow
to Lopez, as it appears, by the reports made to
the Secretary of State by the late Consul, that,
since the attempt of the American Company,
steamers and trading vessels doing very con-
siderable business, most of them the property
of Lopez, are now multiplying on the river.
The instructions of Mr. BOwlin embrace four
points. He is to exact an ample apology for
the outrage perpetrated upon the Water Witeh;
he is to procure indemnity for the Manufacture
ing and Navigation Company, with whose in
terest Lopez is charged with intermeddling; he
is to obtain the ratification of the treaty of
1853, which Lopez objected to on account of
the title of ''the United States of America" and
finally, he is to negoti ate a treaty whereby the
navigation of the branches of the La Plata shall
be free to American vessels. If Lopez should
persist in refusing his assent to all or any of
these demands, Judge Bowlin is to retire from
the negotiation and commit the matter to the
hands of our Naval authorities. Lopez is said
to have been making preparations of hostile
character for some time past, and it is repre-
sented that he is ready to meet US if we resort
to the arbitrament Ofwar. In that contingency
we shall have to increase our land and naval ex-
peditionary force to a very considerable extent;
and before the affair is terminated we may find
ourselves complicated In hostilities with other
powers.-BufalO Express.

Productions Along the Rio Grande

The intelligent correspondent of the Cincin-

The chief business is the raising of grapes,
peaches, pears, ounces and other fruit. The
Ell Paso grape is large, deleiously favored, and
grows almost spontaneously. The color is deep
red. From this grape several varieties of still
wine are made, the best of which resembles fine
Burgundy. The best quality of wine sells at
from 81 to $3.50 per gallon, according to sup
ply. The crop is quite good, especially in the
vicinity of FL Paso, where the vines are shell.

The Ell Paso grape does not grow upon vine,
like the Catawba, but on bush or shrub, very
stout and heavy. The punches are of extraor-

semble the best Malaga raisins. A fortune

Spirit of The Washiugtou News.


The Tibune's special despatch of the 9th has
the following items
The only portion of the Presidents Message
which seems to give general satisfaction, is that
which relates to the Tariff But the general
feeling is that even for that portion the Presi-
dent deserves little credit, as some modification
of the Tariff is absolutely necessary to save the
Administration from bankruptcy.
When the Oregon bill comes up in the House
q motion will probably be made to add as an
amendment to it an enabling act for Kansas

for the submission of the Constitution to the

Mr. MorrilIs bill for the suppression of po-
lygamy in Utah aud other Territories, will be
vigorously pressed early in the session.

The tone of the Message on Mexican affairs
is almost unpalateable to the Diplomatic Rep
resentatives of England and France. They
profess to see in it FilIibusteIism on a large
scale, and speedy absorption of the country.
Letters received from General Walker show
that week ago, he was still in Mobile, having
determined to postpone his embarkatien for the
present.
The fllibusters in Congress are ready to make
war upon the President for his opposition to
Walker. 1t bids fair to be fierce and will en-
gage the efforts of some of the best debaters
IN either House. Already / have heard several
OF these who denOunce the refusal to issue a
clearance to the Alice Painter at Mobile, as an
unheard of outrage-an arbitrary and despotic
exercise of Executive power to prohibit com.
meree between the Southern States and Central
America.
Judge Eckles, of Utah, has placed in charge

of wealth and high standing, and has been for |
a long time past engaged in efforts for the |
restoration Of his daughter, who was iaveiNed |
away from her home in England several years
ago.
Late advices from Salt Lake Valley bring
good reason for believing that the Mormon lead
ers still entertain the project of removing to
Nicaragua or some other country wherein they
can exercise the supreme civil, as well as eccIe-
siastical authority. Certain it is, that they
have made conditional purchase of Col Kin
ney, Sheppard HaleY's grant in the Mosqnito

pecuaiary forfeit if they fail to complete the ne

GEORGIA AND THE SLAVE TRADE-The bill
which has been pending in the Georgia Senate
for some time, for the repeal of that clause of
the Constitution of the State which prohibits the
African slave trade, came up as the special or
der, one day last week, and was lost. Georgia
is one of the most prosperous, practical and en-
hghtened of the Southern States of the Union,
and we sincerely trust that her decision in this
matter may be emulated and initiated by her
neighbOrs. That such topic should be agitated
in any section of the American Republic at the
present time, is discreditable to the national
character at large-Cin Times.
