STRANGE Report from Mexico


The intelligence from the City of Mexico is
that the American Minister, Mr.. Forsyth, is an
abettor of sacrilege, and that discovery of the
stolen silver, made from the ornaments sacked
from the Cathedral of Morelia, ingots to the
value of $780, 900, had been made in the garden
of MI F. We find the following account of
the extraordinary affair in letter to the n. Y.
Times, dated the City of Mexico, Dec Goth:
On the 7th inst. the police entered the late
residence of the Hon. John Forsyth, Ex-Ameri-
can Minister to Mexico, and there discovered
large deposits of silver bars buried in the gar
den, and in small establishment commonly
found in gardens belonging TO city residences.
On the 18th and 18th the police were busy ex-
cavating and cleansing these bars, and in bring
ing them to this city from Tacubaya. The dis
eovery has created the liveliest scandal all
through this city-the more so as these bars
are by all the world believed to be those which
were made from the silver ornaments sacked
from the cathedral of MOrelia. Before Mr.
Forsyth's department from here he was accused
by the Government with having had something
to do with the bars of silver, and now, to have
found them after his departure, the charge
seems tolerably well substantiated. 1t will be
for Mr. Forsyth to excuse himself if he can.
The only excuse which one can make, who
sees with humiliation the representative of the
United States thus compromised, is that the ca
thedral of MoreIia was sacked by force claim
ing relations with one of the political parties Of
the country. and that Mr.. Forsyth had to do
with these bars of silver to aid the cause of
that party. But there is great inconsistency
in this defence. inasmuch as Mr.. Forsyth had
recognized, as the Government of this coun-
try, party of blacKguards, who denounced the
party that sacked the cathedral as lot of ban
dts, long before Mr.. Forsyth took the silver
under his roof However, shall not make any
pleadirgs in this case The affair has been
cause for sincere humiliation to foreigners of
responsibility in this city, and grand feather
in the caps of those who delight in denouncing
the detested North Americans.

COLUMBUS CORRESPONDENCE.
Co1nnsus. Jan. 6, 1859.

CoLUMsUs, Jan. 6, 1859.
The Canal Convention is in session to-day
at the Office Of the Board of Public Works, and
both branches of the Legislature have adjourn
ed over until tomorrow in order to give MEM
bers an opportunity to attend the Convention,
and also furnish an opportunity for some alter
ations in the Hall providing for better ventila-
ton, alterations very much needed for the
health of the Members. Nothing of much gem
eral importance has yet been done The MEM
bers, many of them, came here hoping for short
session. In order to ascertain what the views
of the majority were, some manGuvering took
place. A member of the majority the first day
of the session, introduced resolution to adjourn
March 7th, 1859. This was no doubt done
without the sanction of King Caucus for prom
inent member of the same party at once gave
notice that he wished to discuss the resolution,
which under the rule placed the resolution on
the table. The next day the resolution was
called up, and the Democracy found the minor
ity unanimously striving to make the time much
shorter, and after many efforts to procure an
early adjournment, the Democracy apparently
got alarmed, and after the minority bad held
them to the grindstone some time the resolu-
ton was tabled. From present appearances no
adjournment need be expected until the majori-
ty in their magnanimity please to relieve the
State from the expense Offurther legislation for
1889 Many new bills are being introduced,
and more yet to come. No lack of material to
work upon for the next ninety days. W.

The Fresh Federal Forny on Kansas.

The telegraph announces fresh scenes of vio-
lence and blood in Southern Kansas, and that
the President has afforded another illustration
of popular sovereignty" by offering a reward
of $3.50 for the arrest of Brown and Montgome-
Ty, but no reward for securing Hamilton, the
head of the murderous gang now msrauding in
the territory The course of Brown and Mont
gOmery has been forced upon them by the re-
fusal of the Fort Scott desperadoes to keep the
treaty patched up by Gov. Denver between the
beIligerent parties-a treaty which virtually
justified Montgomery and his men in defending
the free settlers from outrages which spread
terror over four Counties breaking up peaceful
settlements, and watering the soil with the
blood of wholesale buteheries The civil au-
thorities were appealed to in vain, and the late
outbreak was caused by ths seizure and impris-
onment at Fort Scott of Free State man in
violation of the truce. Montgomery and his
men released the prisoner, and in doing so killed
Mr.. Little, but rot until after he had fired upon
the rescuing party.
Such was the origin of the new Kansas ex-
citement, and all the stories of theft and rapine
under the leadership of Brown AMI MOntgOm-
cry come through Border Ruffian sources and
are to be taken with many grains of allowance.
Some apology at least may be found for the
course of Montgomery and Brown in the fact
that not ruffian who battered down Lawrence
and plundered Lesvenworth, who murdered
Hoyt, and Barber, and Phillips, and shot down
half dozen men in cold blood on the 18th of
May last, has been even arrested for their
crimes by the federal authorities On the other
hand several of the known murderers have been
appointed to Office by the President of the Uni
ted States! Is it marvel that after submitting
to unredressed outrages without parallel in CIV
ilized countries, that the people call on such
spirits as Montgomery and Brown to avenge
and defend them!

EVENING SESSION.

The Convention met at half past seven.
The President, Mr.. Hughes, stated that the
object of the Convention was to sustain the ca
mails, and not to disparage any other cooperation,
Railroad or anything else. No hostility existed
between them, but merely serious and honest
difference of opinion in regard to the Public
Works. He stated this in order that the Con
vention should not be understood as being hos
tile to any corporation, but for the preservation
of the Canals.
Mr.. Myers dissented from the views of the
President, and declared his hostility to many of
the practices of Railroads.
Mr. Hughes explained that the Convention
was not to make war on any Railroad or public
men, but for the interest of the people, for he
believed the interest of the people and the pres
ervation of the Canals are identical.
Mr. Chamberlin introduced the following
resolution, with the remark that he had under
stood from personslacquainted with the matter,

Municipal Election in Toronto

The election in Toronto on the Sd was the
first time in its history when the electors were
permitted to vote directly for Mayor. The Re-
formers swept the board, and the Ministerial
party, which has ruled the city so long, has
hardly peg left on which to stand. Mr. Will
son, the Reform Candidate, received II4I ma
jority over Mr.. Boulton the Ministerial nomi-
nee, and 424 over both Boultou and Bowes, the
latter independent The Reformers, or Brown
party, elected 26 ofthe % Aldermen and Coun-
cilmen chosen, and the Globe rejoices that the
victory was achieved with hardly shilling of
expense to anybody. The vote was light one,
and the Leader says "the whole thing seemed
to be left to the people themselves" This is
certainly great improvement in Ca-.-l-----
tSsts, fOr usually the candidates follow the Eng
lish fashion of spending money freely to obtain
an electiOn-so freely and openly as would pos
itively shock the very sensitive, Innocent, and
politically virtuous author of the celebrated Du
Qaesne letter,the President ofthe United States.

Illegal Arresrs inlCnnndn.

The Toronto Leader complains, and with Just
cause, of the violation of Canada territory by
Illegal arrests by officers from the United States
who steal into the province and literally kidnap
persons and bring them across the frontier
Recently person charged with crime in Buffa-
10 took refuge in British territory and got en-
ployment in the neighborhood of Guelph. Buf-
falo officers the Leader states came over, armed
only with United States warrant, which they
got an ignorant Canadian justice of the peace to
endorse, and in the course of a few hours the
American detectives had the accused safe under
lock and key in the Jail at Buffalo. The man,
knowing his rights under international law
made stout resistance, but was overpowered
and forcibly abducted Some weeks ago a man
by the name of Snow was seized by American
offers in the streets Of Toronto and hurried in
to the United States, without even the de.
cency of legal formaiities. The Leader also
cites the case in which an United States officer
crossed from Port Huron into Canada, attempts to
cut out vessel lying in British waters, and with
little provocation blows out the brains of the
captain hscaping INTO mlchlgah' ne surrenu-
ers himself into the hands of friendly custodi-
ans, who refuse to give him up to the Canadi-
authorities for trial A formal demand un-
der the extradition treaty it is presumed will
also meet with denial. In view of this state
of facts the Leader remarks:
The entire question of distinct and separate
national alles lance is involved For if writs for
criminal arrest, issued out of foreign courts are
to be quietly allowed to take effect in Canada;
If systematized kidnapping is to be tolerated
without protest. if homicide and attempted pi-
racy here to be atoned for if at all, in Amer
lean courts, and not in the country where the
crimes are committed, our neighbors will have
much ground for the boast they already indulge
m, that the United States possess the substance
ofpower in these provinces and ourselves but the
shadow.
