Close of the Mexican Empire.

The cause of Imperial Mexico, says the
Philadelphia Press, is utterly ruined in
Europe. Maximilian's credit is among
the things of the past. He cannot MAN.
tain himself in Mexico without money,
and this he cannot borrow, because no
one will lend 10 one who does not pay the
interest upon former debts. Notice has
been duly given, in Paris and London, to
the holders of Mexican bonds and stocks,
that no deposit having been made, in the
proper quarters, By the Mexican Govern
ment, for payment of arrearages and
coupons due on the 1st Of October, this
payment will be postponed. The notice
might have added, sine die. Out of the
two Mexican loans, raised in Paris since
Maximilisn was bayoneted into the stu
alton of successor to Montczuma, about
100000 remain invested in Govern
ment securities in that city, which will
afford dividend on the obligations held
by the creditors. The greater portion OF
what they lent is irretrievably gone,
and Napoleon, by putting an attach
ment upon the customs dues rccciv-
able in Mexican ports, virtually shuts
out the creditors from further receipts Of
interest. There remains the dimuest
sort of hope that the French Govern

Mexican debt, will help the creditors,

Honor to whom Honor is Due

The New York Tribune embodies the
following well timed suggestions relative
to the bestowa. of national hunors upon
the leaders in the great Atlantic Cable
enterprise 1t Is expected in England
that both Mr. Glass and Mr.. Canning will
be knighted for the part they have taken
in carrying out the Atlantic Telegraph
Cable enterprise and it is suggested by
the English press that Capt Anderson, of
the Great Eastern, ought also to receive
some honorary mark of distinction for the
services rendered by him in the good
work. This is as it should be for GER
tainly the men who have been instrumen-
tai in completing one OF the greatest
undertakings Of ;he age are worthy of all
honor, and deserve more substantial re-
wards than any mere title implies. But
what of Mr.. Cyrus w. Field, to whom the
enterprise is moro largely indebted for its
success than to any other individual If
the sovereign of Great Britain is about to
confer distinction upon the Englishmen
who took leading part in that enterprise,
what ought the people of the United
States to do in the case of Mr.. Field ?
Surely, there ought to be some public
some natlonal-recognltioD of the in
valuable services rendered by this gentle
man to an enterprise SO pregnant with
benefits to the country, and what promises
to be SO useful an agent in furthering the
cause of civilization. We honor and re.
ward the soldier whose victories subserve
our national interests, illustrate our great
ness, and adorn our annals. Let us not

A PAINFUL SURPRISE Saturday
evening, says the Rochester Union, box
containing a human body came to this
city by the United States express. 1t
arrived late in the evening, and bore an
address-it being the name of a lady In
this city, but did not bear the name of
the deceased. The express agent did not
desire to retain tie body over Sunday,
particularly as it bore evidences of deccm-
position, and he therefore sought for the
party to whom it was addressed, and in
quired among the underuakers, but could
get no information. Indeed, he failed
that night to find the party addressed
The body was placed in the dead-house
and on Sunday the lady was found. She
knew nothing Of death among her
friends, lot having been apprised by let
ter or otherwise Of such an occurrence
She went to the ad-house, the box was
opened IN her presence, when 10 a coffin
was revealed, which contained the body
of her mother
