THE RULE OF JUAREz.-A correspondent
of the st. Louis Republican writes from Ori-
zaba, Mexico, July 30th, as follows:
Juarez entered the Capital on the 18th.
His reception was very cold. So all reports
agree. The fact is, sort of depression is
observed everywhere. The people feel as if
some great crime had been committed.
Indiscriminate shooting has ceased. by order
of Juarez Other prisoners will be tried in
form, and shot in the same way. How many
have fallen no one can tell No less than one
thousand, beassured Niduara, Ex-Governor
and ex-Minister, was shot few days ago in
the Capital. He was shot in the back and
died amid the "yiyas' and music of the can
nibals. The Prussian Minister has gone in
sane, and can be found nowhere. He was
counsel, and the personal friend of the Empe-
ror. On the sham trial he denounced the
whole proceedings. Soon after the execution
he became insane. Grave fears are enter
tanned for his safety. He may have been Sc
cretly shot. It's supposed he was; it would
be in perfect keeping with late acts and bar
barisms. Everyone holding office, high and
low, under the Empire, is being arrested
postmasters, clerks-any one receiving COM
pensation.

expressed the following sentiment: Great is
my fear that this demanding Of too much for
the blacks, as conditions of reconstruction
and terms of peace between the North and
South, will not only injuriously affect their
spirit and character, but will in the e9d leave
them in possession of less rights, less property,
less advantages than would have been cheer
fully conceded to more moderate demands for
them"

God in their manner and consciences, and Ma

The free principles so early established by the
enlightened founder of the colonies. Lord Bal

The Future Prosperity Of the
South.

The Galveston News in its COM
mercial column has the following
timely and appropriate remarks in
regard to the future prospects OF the
South, and the impropriety of our
citizens seeking other countries for
residence:
Some people expect better times
before long in the South. They rea-
son in this way. There never was
n time when the Southern people
had raised so large a proportion of
all sorts Of mater ial for homo con-
sumption, Or when they were so de
termined TO be economical. Consc-
quently very large proportion of
the proceeds of the cotton crop will
be kept in the country, instead of
being sent out OF it to buy provis
ions. This money will form the
basis of an accumulating capital for
Improvement, and a considerable
degree of prosperity will at once be
realized ), and, if nothing happen,
the country will from this start
90 on until it gets far beyond IFS
former condition. The planter who
accumulates will probably not in
vest in Government securities, but
will endeavor directly to improve
his own State, knowing that he will
thus receive a double return for his
outlay. improvements, we are
told, arc even now going on briskly
in Georgia, and are not made with
Northern or European capital
Take the case of Atlanta, which is
rapidly becoming a manufacturing
place. and rejecting prosperity up
on the farming interest with which
it is associated. The improvements
are made with money borrowed
from planters, who prefer mortgages
in Atlanta to any other security
They have in many instances loaned
their money at Z per cent. to rebuild
their favorite city. In other parts
of the same State, by the same
means. factories are erected and put
in operation and railroads built -
And we observe that in Charleston,
S. c., they are talking of a railroad
from Pocotalgo to Millen, which
they say. would open up a straight
line to Shreveport, and so on TO
Texas. and give them part of the
great trade of the Gulf. If they can
ever make such calculations over
there about onr trade, surely we
should be able to do something for
its benefit at home. At least such
calculations show that their object
= worth our own attention.
