A PITTsBURG CLERGYMAN IN TRoUnLY-
Rev. Dr. James Presley, of Pfttsburgh, Pa,
who was recently suspended from his relations
with the United Preeby terrain Church on the
charge of cruelty to his family, indecent and
blasphemous language, and main tanning i'm :.
proper relations with females, delivered fare
well address yesterday TO his congregation, IN
which. while disclaiming any complaint
against the action of the Presbytery, who
acted upon positive testimony of three wit
nesses, while the testimony in his behalf of
his aged father, kind brother and aff.c-
uonate children was only negative, and
necessarily Of no avail; he defied
the world to prove he was guilty of
indecent and vulgar language, which be alb
horred above all things, and thanKed God he
had not been found guilty OF adultery The
sentence Of suspension did not affect his reia-
tons as a pastor eff the church, as any disso-
luton must be at the request OF his congrega-
ton. He asked them not act hastily, but
thoughtfully and prayerfully. He prayed to
God that he might be allowed to remain here
and live down the calamny and reproach
heaped upon him. This was the last time he
would appear in the pulpit till his suspension
was removed. The congregation were vlsibly
affected, the doctor having still friends and
sdherents among them. Mrs Presley has De
titioned for n divorce.

THE NEWS FROM MEXICO.

Mexican advices via New Orleans state that
MaximilIan offered to abdicate in favor of
young Iturbide. but Bazaine directed and
Ma1iniiian declines TO abdicate in favor of
any one else. Dispatches received in this city
are To the effect that Castelman intends organ
iziug provisional government. composed OF
Lares, one of the Imperial Ministers, and Te.
Jada, Juarez's Minister of Foreign Affairs
Rrmor says that this combination is fayorabIy
received by the United States, but considering
the recent course OF our Government this Is,
TO say the least, rather improbable; as are the
statements telegraphed from New Orleans that
Maximilian was compelled, by order Of Mar.
shal Bazaine, TO abandon his design OF evacu.
ling Mexico, that the commander at Vera Cruz
has been positively forbidden by the French
Marshal to permit him to depart on board the
Austrian frigate DaDdolo, and that, in conse.
quenee Of these peremptory proceedings, the
Emperor has returned TO the Mexican capital,
although these reports may have a basis OF
truth That Macmillan returned under a
threat of arrest is not to be credited
Ifthere were any good reasons why the Re.
public should not be established, and why
imperialism should be continued. then young
1turtide has the best right to the throne. But
such reasons do not exist, and If they did, the
placing of three years old child nominally a,
the head of affairs in Mexico would be the
surest means Of increasing the distractions of
that unhappy country. Marshal Bazaine, In
his movements, is probably only consulting
the interests Snd honor Of France, which would
be compromised by the precipitate flight of
MAMMALIAN, without his formally abdcatlne.
which the Emperor will no doubt do, leaving
a temporary regency to wind up affairs.
tits stated further that news from the Mex.
lean capital, via Havana, confirms the report
OF the abdication Of Macmillan, and that
the Austrian frigate was ready to sail al a mo.
ment's notice.

A NEW TRxTILR.-The last discovery which
comes to US from Nevada is agric ultural rather
than mineral but very important 1t is OF a
new textile, such as was eagerly sought when
the rebellion broke out, but unsuccessfuIIy
The plant now discovered has its home in the
Humboldt Valley, where 1t grows in large
quantities. and can, of course, be ade to gro W
more thrifty by cultivation, while, if it has
the vslues which are ascrIbed TO IL il will soon
be removed to other fields and propagated
among regular crops.
The plant is said by the DISCOVERIES to be Sc.
perior TO any textile now in use. Though
styled hemp, il is SO called on account or m.
closer similarity TO that than 20 any other
growth. II has q stronger aud finer fibre IN an
the proper hemp, and \ much longer staple In
proportion to the wood, too, the fibre is m uch
more abundant. 1t can be more easily separa.
ted than flax or hemp. and can be stripped
clean from The stalk without preparation
Nevada lies between 81 degrees and - de.
grees North. This corresponds with the lati.
tude of Northern California, OF San Francisco,
Salt Lake City. Indianapolis, Columbus and
Philadelphia. The Humboldt River, along
which the new hemp grows, runs from the
mountains OF that name westward through a
mountainous country. IT. therefore exper.
iment proves what is now claimed fer this
textile, II can be prolonged in its cultivation
from Its original habitation TO our own DOORS
