MANIHILEAN.

With the church Golfers to back him,
and native leaders Of talent and vigor TO
command the native solaiery, and the
removal Of Marshal BAzATNE and The
French troops from the country, there Is
reason to believe that many Of the diff
eulres Of his task viii vanish, and those
that remain may by address and energy
he overcome. In Mexico much may be
achieved in restoring popularity to the
emperor by the mere removal Of the
French, and the basing his throne upon
Mexican support alone. The love for in
dependence has been manifested by this
Deople through all the chances and
changes Of the last fifty years. And the
attemut TO found a government by fer
eieu Intervention, will always arouse
their bitter resentment. II therefore
NAxrNILIAS, who already by his per
sonal qualities has cOnciliated the good
will and affection Of many, displays
fine energy and address his friends
have given him credit for, he
may vet succeed in restoring
neace and order to Mexico, and
having firmly the foundations Of his en-
pire. We have no confidence that JUA-
nv or ORTEGA, even with the French
troops withdraw, and the empire aban-
doned by MAMMALIAN, could ever sue
cesd in bringing order out Of the present
chaos. without the protecting arm Of
the United States. And although TO a
majority Of our people the restoration Of
tbe republic would be preferred, yet any
government that will restore law and
order. and is Acceptable TO the Mexieans
themselves, will doubtless be recognized
bv the United States without unnece5-
sary delay. Our trade relations have
been almost entirely suspended by the
existing state Of affairs i'm that unfortu-
nate country. With the return Of order
these would revive aud give an impulse
TO the country that would greatly
aid in the development Of its
resources. We therefore look with
hope to any prospect Of permanent
and well established government for our
neighbors, and msy perhaps, in the near
future be indebted to their hospitality
for a refuge from tyrannyin our hitherto
highly favored land. We look to the
development Of the new plans Of MAXI
MILAN backed by the church party, and
win finances recruited, and throwing
himself entirely upon the support Of the
Mexican people, with great interest As
we have before said, we are prepared TO
hail with intense Qualification the estab-
lishment Of any government that will
efEeetually restore to Mexico the bless
ings OF peace, order, aud respect for the
laws. II MAX. can accomplish this,
we'll; If JUAREz, even better-but we

against tile admission Of Colorado, on
the following grounds First-that we

THE yacht race Is still an exciting

the two caraveis which made up the re-

Tragedy In New York.
b., ~ E,rk Tf1rA7

From the New Aork Alle>
One Of the most shocking tragedies
ever occurring in this city took place on
Saturday evening, when a young woman
vas shot dead by her lover, who imme-
diateIv committed suicide. The facts in
this melancholy and peculiar case are
Simply these Mrs. Francis Gray VIII
lard, q young widow Of decided literary
ability. aud for some months the fore
woman Of the female c0mpOsiug-rOOm in
the World office, and also a writer for
the Suad1V Times and Messenger, has
for some time been receiving the adj
dresses of Thomas VI. Burke, a
-rUUndsmau doing duty ia the Seventh
precinct, and they were at one
time engaged to be married. Since the
Inauguration Of the Masonic fair, Mrs.
Willard had been in charge of the table
belonging 70 Ocean lodge, No. l56, and
she, in that capacity, created a feeling Of
jealousy in the bosom of her lover, who
seems TO have been a man OF violent
passions, and frequent QuaTrels were the
natural result. Mrs. Willard had COM
planned to her brother aud friends Of the
uuruly conduct of Burke, and had de-
clared that she had changed her mind in
regard TO the marriage. No trouble was
anticipated on this account, however,
hence no precautions were taken.
On Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Willard
left the World Office at $50 O'Clock, and
proceeded 10 her residence at No. 40
Ninth avenue, to prepare for her appear
auce at the fair. Soon after her arrival,
Roundsmau Burke an to the door aud
asked for Mrs. Willard, was admitted,
aud went up stairs % her parl0r. y few
minutes after three reports Of Q pistol
were heard By the landfady, and on her
running up stairs she discovered Burke
on the floor. wounded in the head, and
Mrs. Willard lying on a bed ia the back
room quite dead. The Sixteenth pre-
clint police were Summoned, and the in
sensible body o. the murderer and sui
eide was removed 10 the Jews hospital,
where be died at an early hour yesterday
morning. Il is supposed that Burke up
braided his mistress with Inconsistency,
and so worked upon his passion that he
drew a revolver and fired two shots at
the unfortunate woman, One taking ef-
feet in the left shoulder and the other
ent ring the left breast, the ball passing
through the heart and causing almost
instSnt death. After committing this
dreadful deed Burke plsced The muZz!e
of the weapon 90 his right temple and
fred, the bullet crashing into the brain,
causing iuseusibiIIty and subsequent
death.

The hold which M STEVENS has upon
the radical party, and the reason Of his
prominence among its leaders, result
from these facts he understands human
nature well he has played successfully
upon the excited passions and abnormal
appetites Of an excited people, he has
persistency Of purpose and obstinaey Of
will, and he is intimately acquainted
with parliamentary law. What is the
reason Of his fanaticism against the south
and his hatred against democratic prin-
ciples, more than political opinions, we
know not.
Perhaps there are some hidden causes,
an unwritten history, buried for years in
his heart, which makes him look upon a
whole section or an entire party, as Te-
sponsible for the actions Ofan individual
but this we know, that by common con-
sent he Is the leader Of the radical party
Of the United States, yet the influence OF
the principles of the democratic party is
so strong with its own most admirably
disciplined organization, that the radical
journals all over the country have been
compelled to advocate his election as sen
ator from Pennsylvania.

What France was during that transit

What France became when the streets
