Late Mexican news say hat CORDOBA
has beseiged Mazatlan. He has posses
sion of SinaIoa mines, and is coming
money on his own account Commerce,
at Mazatlan, Guaymas and other Pacific
ports, IL represented as broken up. French
subjects continue to be subjected 10 forced
loans and other expressions, and the
whole coast was in the hands Of the Lib
erals. The Emperor has given the
Grand Cross of the Order of Leopold and
that Of Isabel, the Catholic, to AImonte,
who is the ruling spirit Of the Empire.
Over thirty years ago Rev. E. H. Avery
was tried in Rhode Island for the muir
der Of Sarah N. Connell, and acquitted.
The girl was found dead in the woods
near 4 camp-meeting, and Avery was
said to have been seen with her Just be
fore. Proof has lately appeared that the
man seen with the girl was not Avery,
but a person resembling him in size and
dress, and that the girl committed sui
eide. That clears Mr.. Avery from all
suspicion. He left the ministry after his
trial and is now living in New York.
Gov. Allen gives this advice, in his
new paper, the Mexican Times: ITO
our friends in Griffin and Atlanta, Ga;
IN Jersey City, Miss; in Montgomery,
Ala; In Dayton, o.; and IN New Orleans,
La; we say to come to Mexico, immedi-
ately, If you have any money. Even a
small capital viii answer. The best bar
gains In land and stock can now be had
for cash-a small portion for cash and
the balance on long time. To be plain
and candid if you have no money don't
come; stay where you are until you can
accumulate some"
The Boston Commercial says that II
s~elfshness is not the groundwork Of the
legislation which the overwhelming ma
Jority in Congress seek to force upon the
country, then it can only be otherwise
explained on the ground Of cowardice.
Il adds that superiority in numbers is
much greater in Congress than it was on
the battle field, and the timid shrinking
Of radical representatives to meet those
of the South proves either the conscious
ness of a bad cause, or else the preva-
lence Of e~owsrdice on the part Of the ma
jority in Congress.
The Berlin correspondent Of the Lon
don Times says Prussia has not mobil-
lied or dispatched in the direction Of the
frontier a single regiment. Some few
reserves have been called in, but it can
positively be asserted that they do not
come up to the number which in the
most peaceful times has been collected on
the appearance Of some distant danger in
the diplomatic horizon. That the mo-
bIlization Of the entire army is contem-
plated, and even prepared to be carried
out at d moments notice, does not admit
Of a doubt. There is no foundation in
the rumored alliance between Italy
and Prussia. The Italian government
desires to observe the s~trictest neutrality
in any conflict which may occur be-
tween Prussia and Austria.
The Paris correspondent Of the Lon
don Times writes that Prince Napoleon
has left Paris for Italy, after having sew
eral interviews with the Emperor. 1t is
whispered that he is intrusted with a
mission q Victor Emanuel which could
not well be conGded to any inferior per-
sonsge, and has reference TO the state of
affairs between Prussia and Austria. The
correspondent adds: II find persons who,
up to the present moment, have refused
to believe that anything likely todisturb
the peace Of Europe would come Of the
quarrel, are now far less i~ncredulous.
Their views Of the future are gloomy
enough, and they think the conflict be-
tween Austria and Prussia ell but GER

The Paris correspondent Of the London
Times thus announces the arrival Of the
Fenian Chief in Paris: Mr.. Stephens,
the great Irish Head Center, has been
here for nearly 8 week, transacting busi-
ness Of a description best known to him
self and friends, and LAST night Ulysses
was Joined 10 Penelope, who has no idea
Of going to America alone. Mr.. Ste
phens' arrival was only noticed by his
French organ, the Opinion Ndtionnle,
and the announcement did not appear in
8 prominent part Of the journal, nor was
It printed In that type generally accorded
10 important events. From what l can
learn, Mr.. Stephens, when he was
snatched from his horticultural pursuits
in the vicinity of Dublin, aud brought
before the magistrate, was speedily made
aware that arrangements bad beenmade
to deliver him from the grippe Of the Sax
on, andno difficulty was experienced in
effecting his release. That the Irish
police have ever been on the point Of
seizing him Mr.. Stephens denies, and
until he considered it necessary ia the
interest Of the cause he advocates to
leave Ireland, in order to cross the Allan
tic and have a friendly chat with his
manned unmolested in Dublin. He
never even resorted 10 any disguise"
