The Latest News.

The following is a brief synopsis of news re-
ceived here by telegraph on Wednesday evening :
Secretary Seward is reported to have sent a
message OF five thoussnd words over the Allan
tic cable to Europe. 1t was telegraphed on Sun
day, and is supposed to have reference to Mexi-
can affairs. The latest news from Mexico is con-
irmatory of the reported successes of the Liber-
ais at Puebla and 0xaca. Macmillan was re-
ported having formally abdicated his throne
and taken passage for Havana.
The chief of the Fenians is reported to have
mysteriously disappeared, and the Canadians,
consequently, are indulging in another scare.
The approaching session of Congress is pro-
ducing excitement in the large cities which is
characterized alarming. Another dispatch
states that President johnson has completed his
message.
Brief as the news is, it is nevertheless of the
greatest moment. The political atmosphere is
sultry, and cloud like that of 1861 is lowering
over our heads. Ms.s God in his wisdom dictate
that the distant mutterings may not again culmi-
nate in tempest of war and carnage such as
desolated our country for four long years, but
that the patriotism of the people will be suff-
ciently strong to awe their enemies into submits
sion.
Next Monday our Congress meets. Will Pres
ident Johnson, who proclaimed that the people
must be obeyed, give practical exhibition of the
doctrine, as true as it is trite, will he in the
face of half million majority cast against
him at the late elections, still persist in his op-
position, and at last head rebellion ! We saw
it stated in recent telegraphic dispatches that
from fifteen to twenty thousand troops had been
lad Rol
Why are they there? viii the North again be
compelled to take q through Baltimore T. as its
watchword? Will the telegraph once more be
brought into requisition to assure US that
Washington is safe -? Does the President in
tend coup d etat of the Louis Napoleon style -?
To complcate matters, it seems that Napoleon
now fatty refuses to comply with the terms of
his agreement with Seward in regard to the with
drawal of the French troops from Mexico Ac-
cording to that agreement all his troops were to
leave by New Year S day. Now the Frenchman,
if we can credit the telegraph, informs Seward
that he will not withdraw his troops until Spring.
Even his enemies must concede great sagacty to
Louis Napoleon. lie is wise enough to know
that if we are not hampered by intestine his
troops would be driven from Mexico by our vet
Grams faster than they fled from Russia
But we fear that he bases his assurance on the
threatening condition of our country. Has An
drew Johnson perhaps succeeded in that which
rebels failed-n making an ally of Louis Napo-
leon? Have French bayonets been bribed to up
hold the President in his threatened usurpations?
Such fears may seem fancful, but the present
century has witnessed.a great surprises. Stran-
ger things are recorded in history. The wise
man will calculate all chances, and be prepared
for storm, should it come Let the nation be
watchful, for crisis may demand its early at
tention.

breaking Andrew Johnson of the position he has
