The Commercials special says Senator
Morgan this morning presented petition
to the President from New York merchants
asking a Cabinet appointment for Governor
Boutwell,.
The jury in the case of Friery, tried for
the murder of Harry Lazarns, brought in
verdict of murder in the first degree.
The libel case of Count Jonhannes sps,
Horace Greeley was decided in favor of the
defendant.
Further details received by the last arri-
val from Vera Cruz show that fighting be-
tween the Juarists and the Imperielists is
actively carried on in the interior of the
country. The friends of the former state
that General Psttoria has taken the town Of
Ell Teurte, and shot Francisco Vega, the
head of the Imperial movement in that Vi
cinity.
The Juarist force is approaching EllO-
rail-.
The Juarist guerrillas intend butchering
every French soldier they catch, on the
plea that any one fighting for or holding
office under Macmillan is a traitor to Mex
leo and Mexican liberties.
Many other movements in the interior
are named which show the activity of the
national party. The campaign at Oaxaca,
however. gives rise to undisguised anxiety.
Oaxsca is now defended by General Diaz,
while General Bazine in person is heading
an expdition against it, but his van guard
had been defeated.
1t is said that the deficit in the treasury
Of the Imperial Government of Mexico is

There is strong disposition on the part
of the Senate to preserve untouched the

IN the rebel Senate on the 18th, on bill to
diminish the number. of exemptions, the

Mr.. Henry said the difficulty was not the
production of food, but the preventing its
falling into the hands of the enemy. Food
enough was produced in the Valley of
Virginia LAST year, but when the harvest
was ripe it fell into the hands of the eenemy
Mr.. Oldham, of Texas, criticised the
plan on which the war had been conduct
ed. It had been attempted to defend too
much territory. Instead Of our armies be-
ing combined they were scattered about
from one end of the country to another, to
defend some seaport.
Mr.. Orr replied to Mr.. Burnett. He said
The Senator had said there was plenty of,
food in the country. He would inform
him that he knew Of hundreds, yes, thou
ands of soldiers families who had tastedsao
meat in the LAST six months, who Weres
ing on bread alone, and short supply at
that.
Mr.. Graham said this was the case in his
State.
Mr.. Orr said the Senator from Tennessee
(Henry) seemed to be very anxious to fill
up the army. IF the Senator should
chance to meet any soldiers from the army
he might learn that they had been without
meat for 8 long time.
