begins to entertain visions of political
glory. Here is lsts uttersnce Of Sher-

"The Government would require to in-
stitute some system Of labor. in order
that the lands of the South might be cul-
tivated. (Appiause.) He wanted those
who had been in the South to bear testi.

MEXICO.

Tho adoption by Maximilan of native
Mexican as his herr to the thIOne Of Mexico is
an act which will take the world by surprise
Few, we venture to say, in speculating upon
the future fate of the Empire, had thought Of
such contingency, and few, we believe, will
hesitate to acknowledge that the act is highly
creditable TO the craftsmanship Of Macmillan.
Even those who are unwilling to palliate the
origin Of the Empirei must acknowledge the
earnest efforts made by Macmillan to concil-
late the minds Of the Liberal Acxicans by wise
reforms, and to appear rs the moss patriotic oil
the inhabitants Of the Empire. What

may have been, whether they sprang ron

that could be taken to this end, and no selection

The religious heart of the American people
has as vet given no practical expression Of It's
devotion to Almighty God for His gotdnes- IA
our days of woe, and the tender care with which
He carried this great people through desolat-

that expression Of popular joy which takes eiioct

but this Is the expression Of reverence

il without doing violence TO our humanity. We
may pass resolutions of thanks and give houses

this is the expression Of popular enthusiasm,
and we cannot restrain it. We have yet done
nothing to show rs u Christian people our de-
