FROM MEXICO. New York

FROM MEXICO. New York
HeroH has late Mexican dates:
L. able is brewing between the
rebel colonists in Cordova and the
Indians who formerly occupied the
land. 1t was rumored that repre-
sentation from the Fenian Brother
hood had been very cordially received
by Maximilian; it was supposed the
representative came on official Fenian
business. The Emperor is very hard
pressed for funds, Carlotta, the En-
press, refusing to supply him from
her own pin money any longer.
Some Americans mining in the
Michoacan places were taken by the
Liberals and disarmed. A Liberal
repulse is mentioned as occurring Mt
Teotitlan, on the 3Oth of April.
Mazatlan is SO closely besieged that
provisions are becoming very scarce.
Great jealousy existed between the
French troops and the Austrian, and
the entire Imperialist army is dissa-
tistied with the Mexican campaigns.
a report of the complete rout of
Cortinas at Paleto Blanco, by Gen.
Ollvarez is published. A large num-
ber of Americans are said to be in the
ranks of the Liberal army.

SECRETARY McCULLocH' s SAGAcITY.
In the letter sent by him to Congress,
on Tuesday, Secretary McCulloch.
while claiming that his action in sell
ing gold to meet the foreign demand
was justified by the commercial men
of New York, and was, in his own
Judgment, we'll calculated to prevent
financial crisis in England, and to
benefit this country, candidly admit
ted that its wisdom would be best
tested by the news from abroad. Yes
terday the Africa arrived from Liver
pool, and We learn by telegraph that
the large arrivals of gold from Anne
rica had caused better feeling, and
reaction had set in on change in
London" If the Secretary has
really accomplished his object, as it
now seems likely he has, gold having
fallen rapidly in New York yesterday,
he has rendered his country IL ser
vice which it should not forget.

CALL UPON SoUTHERNENs TO VIo-
LATE PRINCIPLES OF HONOR The
idea of honor in the human heart
seems to be a good deal ignored, not
only by Congressman, but by the
press. Even the honorable Senate
Of tue United States does not hest
tate to apply q personal chalice to
Southern communities, that, upon
reelection, as gentlemen and human
lists, they will, in another day, feel
little disposed to Justify. On this
point we quote from the Springfield
Republican as follows:
''It is generally conceded as rea-
sonable, that the Southern States
should be required to assent to the
equalization of representation rs pro-
posed i'll the second section, and,
standing by itself, it would have a
very fair chance of adoption; but it
IS hardly to be expected that the
Southern people can be willing to
ostracisc their leaders for the sake of
procuring power for themselves. 1t
will be considered an outrage upon
all their notions of honor and chi
valry. If this provision We're put III
the form Of law, as the joint com
mlttee proposed, it might have been
patiently submitted to, as a not un-
reasonable penalty for rebellion, i'm
posed by the victorious Government
But if the Southern people them
selves accept it as an amendment to
the Constitution, they thus become
ministers of vengeance upon their
own leaders. This is an act of hu-
initiation and cxpiation 50 difficult
and mortifying that it is hardly con-
ceivable that it will be performed un-
der any stress of motive"

Letter to Gen. Logan.--During the
last week, a petition was. circulated in
our city, or rather request from the
soldiers, addressed to General Logan of
Illinois, urging him to visit us, and ad-
dress the people, on the occasion of the
Grand Mass Meeting here next month.
He is the popular candidate at large in
that State for Congress, and is stump
ing Illinois, with the greatest enthusi-
assn wherever he goes. The presence
OF no man among us would create
more sensation, especially among our
soldiery, with whom he is a great f;I-
vorite. Large numbers of them, we
understand, signed the request, each
putting down his regiment and COM
pany. .a... ..H

One Less "Dorg.'-On Monday
morning little black dog of this city
had the misfortune to lose his head, in
u very sudden manner. His mistress
and he were trotting over the long rail-
roat bridge, just as the cars came along.
She found a Judgement among the side
timbers, but he in his folly undertook
a race ahead. The merciless locomo-
tive kept gaining on him and just as
he reached the abutment, and SHE'D off
one side, the wheel touched his neck
and off went his head rolling down the
bank. He had not even time for fare
we'll wag Of the tail at his sad-hcarted
mistress, who came along up to look
on the ruins. Poor Trip, farcwell! b..
A similar affair took place, we be-
lieve, not long ago at the same bridge.
And, with the much walking OF that
plank now that our street is gone We
fear that we may have some human ac-
cident of like sad character to record.
BE careful, friends, be careful!

Shop lifting. Saturday evening, the
gallant Captain Williams, of Thomp-
sons hardware store, had the hardi-
hood to put a veto upon Il fair lady's
pocket operations. The way of it was
this {: n#a -
One of four ladies examined scissors,
and after slipping one pair into her
pocket, concluded she "wouldn't take
any" Through the glass case the Cap
tain had seen the whole movement,
and answered, that she 'might us well
pay for those she had in her pocket"
pocket! why, they couldn't be in her
pocket" said the fair one, blushing
and fumbling. Sure enough, there
they were. a., Really sbe didn't know
they were there; what did he say was
the price" ''He had said thirty-five
cents, but now he reckon ell they w ere
worth fifty cents. In deep crimson
she planked the dust, and then bought
also some knives for. the other ladies !;
doubtless as sort Of hush-movement,
to buy off an exposure of the peccadil-
10. Be-not alarmed, dear lady; we are
NOT going to tell your name, or do'any-
thing to expose YOU Only be careful
hereafter; such trick INDUCED would
soon bring you to shame. $50, and

The C0ncc9 TUe&tldy Erening. Over
mans Hall was completely crowded
with dense mass of humanity, to en-
joy. The Grand Concert of the Iowa
Central Band on Tuesday evening. 1t
was decidedly financial success, about
$40 being taken in; for which we con-
graduate the Band, rs with this amount
they can obtain the fuller instruction
they desire. Their music is already eX-
cellent, and we could only wish they
had favored us with more of it on this
occasion, to fill up the intervals Of wait
ing in the other exercises. The "Stat-
uary" tableau was difficult perform
ance, but was very finely executed. In
the other tableau, there was some draw
back in tho arrangement, and we arc
told that q slight accident attended the
performance, somewhat disconcerting
the exercises. But the singing was
well liked, and Barnes did himself par
ticnlar credit in the ''Unfortunatc
Man" The latter part of the evening
was occupied with Barkcr's Ministries,
who seem as much ut home on n
"breakdown,' as il they We're native
born plantationers. The whole was
followed by a Dance, in which we learn
that some sixty couples took part, hay-
ing 4 very pleasant time.

A Fine Thing for the Home.

Mrs. Wells, teacher ut tie Orphans
Home, has spent her vacation East, anC
as missionary for the enterprise, has
done noble thing among the eastern
publishers, getting up a Library for thu
institution. The result is over three
hundred excellent and elegant books
making q library of $50 volumes O
choice litcrature,--a very good founda
ton for more extensive collection in
the future. We have had the pleasure
of examining tho libraryas brought on
and now being arranged and prepared
by Mr.. Edward Chase; and we are
much pleased with the elegance as
wellas the excellence of the books. Their,
are many large and profitable works q
standard value, embracing the Libra
ry Of Eminent Men, the +" Library .o
Famous Generals, nand the like. And
the wants of the youngest children are
supplied by the Riverdalo Story
Books" the"Oliver Optic - series, the
" Little Prudy" volumes, My Pet Lii.
brary, and multitude of similar books
SO interesting to the young.
These works were obtained upon So
licitation of Mrs. Wells, by liberal con-
.tribution from the Depositories of the
Harper Brothers, Appleton & Co., and
the American Tract Society, N. Y,
from Henry Hoyt. the Mass. S. S. Soci-
ETY., Barnum, shepard, Loring, and
other publishers OF Boston. The Mer-
Ram Brothers, of Springfield, gave. a
fuli-size Wcbster's Dictionary; l.. Mer-
RAM, of Greenfield, and III. Folsom and
@. d. Russell Of Boston, gave valuable
contributions of piano and other music.
There We're furnished eleven dozen OF
Singing Books, for daily use in the
Home. Also, a good stereoscope, and
five or six weekly newspapers to be sent
regularly from Boston and New York.
Mrs. Wells also obtained from the
Merchants, by solicitations, near $500
worth of cutlery and hardware, for tho
use Of tho Home. She is certainly de-
serving of great credit for her enter
prise and success in this business. -
Many young mouths will not only open
at those beautiful knives and forks, but
will chatter hel praise over those gild-
cd volumes of delightful juvenile enter
tainment. Books! good books! moth
ing better than books could be given to
such a collection of youth and we
prophesy that the new Orphans Libra
ny win be 4 very popular thing.

The Warrington FonlHy.-This conf
pany of vocaIists gave two concerts in
this place Inst week, of rather unequal
merit in the various parts OF the per-
formance. BY singular failure of
memory on the part OF the gentlemen
performers, Il small bin due this office
for printing was left unpaid. The man
who brought them from Marengo here,
and who had carried them from Blairs-
town to Marengo, also failed to get his
pay-$l4,00 for the whole. They left
with him guitar i'll pawn, agreeing to
send down the money from Waterloo.
They forgot to do it, THE man who
drove Ru!yea's livery team for them to
Waterloo had considerable difficulty to
get his pay but refusing to be blutfGd
off, he finally obtained it. Such prac-
tees will work no advantage to them

august Thirty First.-To-day we bid
farewell 10 the summer months Of 1866.
"Tis the last day Of summer, left lingering
alone;
All its fieetng companions have faded and
gone" ~
The present has been a remarkably cool
August, even as the preceding month
was remarkably hot July. So that
the average heat of summer has preba-
bly, been maintained. All parts Of the
country, and all thermometrical obser-
Sations testify, that there were more
continuous days Of extreme heat, as
web as higher point reached this sea-
son, than for a whole generation before.
Yet in August there has not been sin
gle day very hot; but on the contrary,
the days have been moderate and many
of the nights very cool. A fire has Of
ten been comfortable in our houses, and
q frost has at times been feared.
