WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Positive informa-
ton has been received here that President
Juarez was at Ell Paso, in the State of Chi
huahua, on the 9th of September As the
time required for communication between
chihuahua is twenty days, the truth of the de-
claration Of Maximilian, dated the I'd of Oc-
tober, that the cause which President Juarez
upheld has been abandoned, and that he has
departed from his native soil, is not believed
to be true, Nor is it credited in Diplomatic
circles that Juarez has sanctioned, as has been
stated, the Imperial Mexican Express Com
pany.

THE WIRZ CASE,

Mr.. Louis Schade, counsel for Capt. Wrz
was at the Presidents house tonight to inter-
cede in behalf of his client. He is apprehen-
sive that the Military Commission have found
him guilty Of all the charges, and therefore is
desirous of saving him from the death penalty.
Although Mr.. Schades fears may be well
grounded, several days will probably elapse
before the result of the trial shall be promul.
gated. As the members of the court were
sworn to secrecy, the findings can only be
known with certainty through an official
source. The President has not yet acted on
the record presented by the commission.

StuSiiOuS Freedmen.

The Houston Texas Telegraph SAYS:
more than half the spelling books now
sold in Houston 90 into the hands of the
negroes. Several schools for colorcd persons
are now in operation here and in Galveston.
Many planters buy stock of school books for
the schools already not untrequcnt upon the
plantations. We believe this is the proper
thing, and that the education Of the negroes
i'll the elements of knowledge will aid in Il
labor will be successful, and whether the
negro race will survive their freedom.
The Galveston Neus has the following:
''We saw a planter in town yesterday buy
ing large lot of books for his freedmen 1t
is his purpose to establish q Sunday School
and night school for them, and also to have
them taught on Saturday and Wednesday af.
ternoons. This is the right spirit We are
glad to see 1t prevailing in one manifestation
or another to very large extent. Nothing
should be done to ALLEVIATE our former slaves,
but everything to conciliate and elevate them
They are worthy of philanthropic efforts-their
situation in our midst forms test of our own
character. Oppression or neglect of them
will demoralize us and our children; the right
treatment of them will be twice blessed.
Elaboration on this subject is unnecessary,
however, as the Southern whites are certainly
too wise and humane to permit such field of
duty and privilege to remain uncutivated."
How TO OBTAIN EGGs.-There is much in breed, in
laying qualities. But the most is in good treat
matchmaking the hen at home. A crowded place
will not do. Too many hens together is bad. Why !?
Because it nterferes with tranquility. The points of
success are: warm, roomy clean quarters; unmoest-
ed: plenty of food, variety of feed, varied daily
water changed often: crushed bones either burnt or
otherwise pulvcrized earth spent ashes to wallow
in: light: and much eheerfulness possible Then
select good breeds The Spanish among the best
layers, and are almost anywhere TO be found. But
remember the good treatment Oh dispense with hsls

Conclusion of the Trial OF Miss Harris.

A dispatch from Washington, July
10Th, says: The trial of Miss Mary Har
ris, for shooting Burroughs, terminated
this afternoon, having occupied ten days.
The court room was densely crowded With
interested spectators, including many Ia
dies, long before the court was formally
opened. Hon. D. W. VOORHEES, made
the closing speech in behalf Of the accus
ed, contending that from all the affecting
circumstances and wrong inflicted upon
her, the homicide was the act Of an in
sane impulse. District Attorney Car.
ington delivered the concluding argu-
mens for the prosecution.
The jury retired to their room and IN
about ten minutes returned with yer
dict of "not guilty" The announcement
wa. received with loud applause. Some
of the women cried with JOY. Haudker
chieves were waved aud hats thrown up
Large numbers of spectators rushed to
wards Miss Harris to congratulate her OF
her acquittal, tho words of which hat
scarcely been announced, when she faint
ed and " as taken from the court room il
tho arms of Mr.. Bradley, her senio
counsel. Persons outside caught it U
and repeated the declaration ofjoy.
The Chicago Tribune thus sums U
the evidence 10 this remarkable case:
1st, that Burroughs had secured he
e affections, and was engaged to be marie
II to her; I'd, that heidi not seduce he
n nor sndeavor to seducc her, and that sh
III herself is guiltless of any crime save TIL
70 Of homicide; Sd, that some other perso
Re did endeavor to seduce her, whom 81
le mistook for Burroughs; 4,b, that she di
not follow him to Washington for II
= purpose of killing him, but to vindica
ID her own character from unjust aspersion
d BY an action against him for breach
a promise; 5th, that the killing of Bul
,. rouahs was an act Of uppremeditatt
