The total number Of delegates composing the conSen

There were twenty seven parishes unrcpreeentcd IN

The New GERMAN NPARLIAMENT-A citizen
Of Illinois, Col Frederick Hecker, Is sup
ported by the German Liberals of the city
Of Marburg for seat in the new German
Parliament. He is native Of the Grand
Duchy Of Baden, but has resided in Illinois
for the last seventeen years, and has been q
naturalized citizen of the United States for
twelve years. Col. Hecker showed his ap-
probation Of true Republican principles by
organizing and leading regiment in our
late war Of the rebellion, and 1t Is in no
small degree credtahle to him and his record
that the German Liberals have gone out Of
their own country in the selection Of can
didate whom they deem proper exponent
oil their principles. These Is no limitation Of
residence necessary for candidates for the
German Parliament, and the people Of the
Liberal party there seemed to have resolved
to select the most worthy men, without re,
gard to their residence. Col. Hecker's com,
petitor for the representation Of Marburg is
none other than Count Bismarck himself

French Troops TO Remain Neutral
In Mexico.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. l4-Additional Mexi-
can intelligence states that there appears to
be no concord of action between Maximilian
and Bazaine, as the latter has issued mani
festo that since the Emperor had determined
to remain in Mexico, the French troops
would remain neutral and only fight in case
they are attacked.
Macmillan is still at Orizaba, and II is i'm
probable that he will take any permanent
steps until the millions of money promised
him shall have been paid in. Fully three
fifths Of the Mexican people south Of San
Luis Potosi are in favor Of Juarez. Ortega
has no party and Santa Anna is despised.
Marshal Bazaine has stated that he had
sent commission to the United States TO
open negotiations with Ortega relative to the
future Government Of Mexico.
All tho French troops are concentrated
from the city Of Mexico to Vera Cruz, ex-
cepting few hundred In the interior.
The publication Of the Mexican Times has

universal suffrage, which he advocated
strongly, holding that the franchise should
be extended to all classes alike-to Africans,
Cinnamon, and all foreigners, and to Indians
when they became citizens. In regard to
female suffrage, he thought il woman was q
member Of the human family she had right
to vote, and it would give higher tone to
our own election system, and also enlarge
the sphere Of womans thoughts. .--

ARTIFICIAL LIMBS FOR SoLpIERs.-A Wash.
ington dispatch says that IN investigation by
the House Military Committee into the ser
viceability Of the artificial limbs furnished by
various manufacturers to the soldiers of the
late war shows that but a small proportion
of them prove durable. In many cases they
prove entirely useless, or so imperfect as tt
involve as much expense in repairing them
as was paid for them at first The Govern
ment pays s75 for artificial legs and it is
probable that Congress will endeavor to
compel the manufacturers to do justice to
the soldiers whom they have swindled. They
certainly should do SO, for good artificial
legs are but poor substitutes for those that
the soldiers lost in the war, and they ought
not to be put off with poor ones.
