Lieutenant General Grants Opinion OF
French Invasions, and Maximilian's
Occupation Of AexicO.

Lieutenant General Grants Opinion of
French Invasions, and Maximilian's
Occupation Of AexicO.
1t seems that Lieutenant General Grant
hiss been devoting himself to the consid-
Grafton Of the Mexican question. He
maintains that the invasion of Mexico by
the French was q portion of the compact
on the part Of Napoleon with the Rebels.
England and France having both mani.
tested a willingness to aid the Confeder-
ate cause, both agreed to carry out 4 mu-
tually adopted plan. France invaded
Mexico as a means of provoking 4 col.
Iission with the United States, on issues
to grow out of the Monroe doctrine /;
while England supplied the rebels with
vessels and crews, with which to sweep
from the seas the of the United
States. If our claims against the Brit
ish government for losses growing out of
the d~epredations Of Aaglo-Contederate
pirates are valid, then on the same prin-
ciple We are bound to eject Ma1imilian
from his usurped throne in Mexico. Gen
eral Grant declares that Maximilian's
election from Mexico is q necessary part
Of the work completely to end the REBEL
ION. Until that is accomplished our
work in restoring the authority and pes
tige of the Federal governments viii not
be completed.

Affairs are more mixed than ever
in Mexico. Guerillas are getting very
plenty and troublesome, and the teIe-
graph asserts that difficulties have
arisen between the French and Aus
trian troops. Gen Mejia. Of the impe-
rial army, occupies Monterey. and it is
reported in Vera Cruz that another
force had been sent to Tampico to
await an attack from Juarez's army,
supposed to have been reinforced by
American emigrants. A San Luis date
of the 9th announces that the French
troops had occupied Saltillo, Negrete
retreating to Monterey. As Maximili-
ans forces are said to occupy this
town, it is altogether more probable
that Negrete has fallen back to some
other point.
A Mexican steamer, which carried
the American flag up the Rio Grande,
has been captured by United States
steamer and taken into Brownsville.
The steamer Alamo, from Comargo to
Matamoras, has been robbed by que.

The Secretary of the Interior.

Mr.. Harlan is evidently making a
commotion in the department of which
he has taken charge. There have
been for long time unpleasant re-
ports about some of the bureaus in the
Department. and suspicious that the
public interests were not sufficiently
guarded from the rapacity of specula-
tors. 1t has been thought that the
confidence of the head of the Depart
ment was abused by some of those
who ought to have been the first to
keep him advised Of anything that re-
quired his censure. However this
may be, it is certain that we have at
the head of the Department of the In.
terror a faithful, an honest, and an
able man, one who will understand
the varied and important interests
committed to his charge, and who will
not he cajoled into the approval of
any scheme for private advantages
against the public good. So many of
the operations Of the Department Of
the Interior are carried on at a great
distance, and in wild and unsettled
portions of the country. that uncom-
mon opportunities are offered for fraud
ulent practices, and there is too much
reason to apprehend that such oppor-
tunities have not been always resisted.
The country will learn with gratifica-
tion that a thorough investigation
will he made into all the allegations
of abnse, and that thorough reform
will be made wherever they are dis.
covered. The character of Mr.. Har.
Ian is an abundant guaranty of this,
and his preliminary steps fully confirm
it.-Prorlaence Journal.

Senator Wade, chairman of the com.
mittee on the conduct Of the war, is
now revising the sheets of the report
of that committee, comprising recent
testimony as to the treatment our pris-
oners received at the hands of the reb-
els. The committee say:
The evidence clearly shows that
tens of thousands of our brave soldiers
fell victims to that savage and infer.
nal spirit which actuated those who
spared not the prisoners at their mer-
cy who sought by midnight arson to
destroy hundreds Of defenceless wo-
men and children /; aud who hes;tated
not TO commit acts so horrible, that
the nations Of the earth stand aghast
as they are told what has been done.
The Prison Surgeons report Of the
Richmond prisons, for one quarter,
shows that a fraction over one-half of
the cases entered resulted in death,
aud most Of these were more the re.
suit Of inhuman treatment and neglect
than of disease. But little more
than half the necessary number of
beds were provided. and the nurses
often occupied them to the exclusion
of the sick. After our men died their
bodies were treated as the carcasses
of any dead animals they were piled
in dead-houses, and their eyes and
cheeks eaten out by rats before they
were put in collins. The keepers gen-
orally manifested almost total indiffer-
ence to the lives and condition Of the
prisoners and as one of the many H.
lustrations Of this, a witness testified
to the following: was stationed one
day by the hospital of one of our ne
gro soldiers, captured at the expIo-
sion Of the steamer Petersburg. He
was standing near by, engaged in
skirmishing, as We prisoners call it
examining his clothes for vermin A
rebel drew up his musket, took delib-
crate aim, aud fired, killing the negro.
On being asked what he did it for, be
answered, ITO see the damned black
son of bitch die" The rebels said
they got thirty days furlough for
shooting Yankee"
The committee say: alt is a mat.
ter of congratulation that, notwith.
standing the great provocations to
pursue different course, our authori.
ties have ever treated their prisoners
humanely and generously, and have
in all respects conducted this contest
according to the rules of the most civ.
| ilized warfare"

A.B.F. HILDRETH, Editor.
Charles City, Iowa, July l3, 1866.
From the Plains.

1t is ascertained beyond dispute
that the Arrapahoe Indians, who, for
some time have been fed by the Gov.
ernment at Fort HaIleck, as friendly
Indians, have been the perpetrators Of
most of the outrages committed on the
overland mail route southwest Of Den
yer. They ascertained that they
were suspected and have now taken
the war-path openly and defiantly.
Our troops are in pursuit. There are
no friendly Indians east or north of
Denver and Camp Collins, neither can
any peace be expected until they are
chastised. They have met with sue
cess during the past year which made
them exceedingly bold and daring in
their exploits. One or more of Gen
eral Conner's three columns are now
preparing to march against them and
are only detained by the want of sup
plies, which are now en- route from
Missouri river and daily expected.
The General arrived at Fort Lara
ME on the 30th from Julesburg, and
will take the field himself. The man.
ner in which the emigrant trains are
arranged renders that class of travel
perfectly safe. The Indians have not,
so far, succeeded in inficting damage
upon anything but mails, stations and
telegraphJines.

Mrs. Lincoln.

II is said that Mrs. Lincoln does
not feel friendly toward the peple of
Springfield-hence her demand for a
deed for the lot on which her hus band .
remains now rest, on threat of remov.
ing them to Washington. The reason
of this is said to be that while living
at Springfield Mrs. L. was not receiv.
ed in the so-called Society" Before
Mr.. Lincoln stumped Illinois with
Douglas in 1858, he and his family
were regarded as nobodies" by the
society" of Springfield, who, socie-
ty-like, judged people more by their
money and the good clothes they
wore than by solid worth. Mrs. Lin
coin has not visited Springfield since
leaving there in 1861, nor does it seem
that she intends to do SO. Woman
like, she has not forgotten former
sights, and now seems disposed to
rebuke the snobs Of Springfield by
declining their proffered attentions
and setting them back a peg or two
in their zeal to pay honor to those
whom they were once won't to snub.--
