The New Emperor of the New EN-
miro

Who is Maximiian? is question frequently
asked. We suppose him to be scion of the
Bonaparte family, in which there are two per
sons of that name, grandchildren of Eugene
Beauharnais and his wife, the Princess of Ba-
varia. Eugene was child of Josephine by
her first marriage, and great favorite of the
Emperor Napoleon, who, in 1906, adopted
him as his son.-He was subsequently appointed
Viceroy of Italy, and married the Princess Of
Bavaria. In 1917 he had son. called Max
milian who entered the service of Russia, and
in 1889 married the Grand Duchess Maria
Nicolaiwena, daughter of the Emperor Nicho
las. BY this lady he has had several children
two of whom are sons-one, Prince Nicholas
Macmillan, in ls4l, and Eugene Maximilian,
born in ls47 Is the Emperor of Mexico the
elder of the two? There is none Of the Bona
parte blood in their veins; but they are so allied
to that family as to be considered a part of it.
The choice of such person would be evidently
a stroke of policy. 1t associates with the
French dynasty the grandson of one of the
most distinguished monarchs that have occupied
the Russian throne, and it would serve to add
distinction and power to it. The present
French Emperor has adopted the wisdom Of
his uncle for his own guidance, and one part of
that we know was to strengthen his position
through every ramifcation offamily ties.

CURE FOR DRINK1NG.-In Paris they cure
dclirium treatments by subjecting the patient to
the constant vapor of spirits. They soak his
food in Brandy and give him nothing that
does not smell or taste of it.: Shut in cell
and breathing nothing but alcoholic fumes
nature at last vindcates ITSELF and the patient
loathes the smell and longs for the air. A
cure is made in about four days.

Observation-Disclosures OF FRENcH OccU-
PATIoN.-The French occupation of Mexico
will last as long as will be necessary to assure
forever in that country the operation of an
honest and regular Government. The people
themselves would eventually be called upon to
decide. In every case France would take pos
session of Sonora, and would establish in one
ofthc ports of that region a French military
station for the protection of her commerce and
of such Frcnchmcn rs might 90 there to reside.
We understand that already the Government
is calling the attention Of capitalists to numcr-
Gus sources of wealth to be explored in that
magnificent country. This appeal to industry,
and the sending of troops and munitions that

are of a nature, to lead to the belief that the
Government expects tc be installed at Mexico

AN IMPORTANT CAPTURE.-It seems that the
Capt Paine who, with his boats crew was cap

"It is not improper now to mention the dis

1t Is the duty of every government to give
protection to its citizens, of whatever class,
color or condition, and especially TO those who
are duly organized rs soldiers in the public
service The law of nations and the usages
and customs of war, as carried off 10y civilized
powers, permit no distinction as to color in
treatment Of prisoners of war as public enemies.
To sell or cnslave any captured person, on ac-
count Sf his color, and for no offence against
laws of war is a relapse lrto barbarism, and a
crime against the civilization of the age The
Government of the United States will give the
same protection to all its soldiers and, if the
enemy shall sell or enslavc any one because of
his color, the offences shall be punished 10y re
taliation upon the encmys prisoners in our
possession.
1t is therefore ordered, that soldiers of the
United States, killed in violation of the laws
of war, rebel soldier shall be executed, and
for every one enslavcd by the enemy, or sold
into slavery, rebel soldier shall be placed at
hard labor on the public works. and continued
at such labor until the other shall be released,
and received the treatment due to prisoners of
war;

paper which has done more to injure the cause Of
the South than Lincoln and his whole army, WIN
the Northern press assisting. Measures INTENDED
to promote the general welfare and prosperity Of the
country are denounced by that "wof IN Sleeps
clothing" and many are the demagogues who swal-
low every thing that paper has to say as law and
gospel and all this to please those men who belong
to the no-party party.
1t might seem strange that intelligent men should
be borne away by this rushing tide, and sacrifice
both their Judgment and reason on its atar-butl It
is too true And more than this many both learned
and wise, are too timid to stem the current, 100
cowardly to fall fighting for truth and right, too
weak to resist, and they snatch up the standards,
and march against the dictates of their own con-
sciences And all this for the sake Of that Destruc-
tive party, alias no-party party
How utterly contemplate and degrading are the
many tricks practiccd by these hackneyed Destruc-
tives. They dupe the people by erroneous state
mens, and lead them (at least they try) by appeals
to party Aprit. This party has for its leaders
miserable gang of refuse lawyers and ambitious, but
disappointed office-seekers. We look upon you,
Mr. Editor, as one who will not be frowned down
by public opposition, and not afraid to promulgate
truth, and use reason as your weapon. Go on IN
