No soldiers We're allowed to be IN the

this disability will also be removed.

New YORK, Sept. 13.-The CONNER

from Mexico respecting the prospects OF

The Mexicans who still adhered to the
republic were discouraged on hearing OF
the reduction of Sheridans army in Tex

can with MaXimllian. Without an I'M
mediate supply of men and money from
the United States, the Liberals mnst
abandon the contest. The Administra-
ton, however, will neither suffer the
neutrality laws to he violated, nor will

prospects of the establishment Of the cm-
pire, the subject of frontier dctenses Is

A Modern .BrGrics.

We clip the following account of the
extraordinary course of Judge Goodloe
of Kentucky from letter to the Cincin-
natl Commercial from Lexington:
Our Circuit Court is in session, Judge
Goodloe presiding. 1t is the special du-
ty of the Grand Jury mt the tenn next
after elections, to inquire into violations
of the, election laws, and the Judge, as
required by statute, gave them specially
in charge for their inqniry. But his spe-
cial charge was very brief, and wholly
unlike his charges when he was Know
Nothing, and the Irish carried the cleo
tons No hint OF whisper as to examin-
ing into the charges of military inter
ference" Still, the Grand jury had the
audacity to look into the snbject, and on
the last day of the term reported five
indictments for violations of the election
laws, by military force and control
Their audacity reached the extreme
length of including the Judges brother,
David s. Goodloe, United States Assessor,
in one of the indictments. 'a 30 q. e-.
This audacity of the. Grand Jury was
promptly febnketl. The Judge, without
mention or, word from apY one took the
law intn his own bands, zapd displissed
tho ildictment against his brother 5he
four other indictments shared the same
fate.
AS in Egypt Pharoah arose who
knew not Joseph, so there had arisen in
Kent<stky Legislature and Supreme
Court that know not Goodloe. There is
consequently some concernamong Gods
elect" lest the Supreme Conrt and the
Legislature may have so little of loyalty
as to hoist the Judge from the bench; for
snch things as ho has dane have not been
done since the days of Jeffries
