REooRD.-Mr Ohanler, ono Of our democratic
members Of Congress, seems TO have been par.
ticularly anxious to place himself right on the
record with regard to bis vote on Mr. Ashley's
impeachment resolution. Tho reporters Of
the press, not paying sufncient attention
TO the matter, and assuming that Mr.. Chan
Ter, being democrat, would vote against
the resolution, omitted 10 record his
name on the Affirmative side. He wished
II to be known that he voted for the
impeachment resolution, and took the oppor-
tunity on Wednesday to correct the press
report We think Mr.. Chanler's reasons for
voting IS be did are not quite sound. He
acted In the same way that Brooks and other
democratic members acted last session when
they fcolisbly voted In manner that strength
ened the radicals, under the silly idea that they
we're playing deep political game. Small
politicians are not At for Congress A member
should be either for or against proposition
On principle. and should voto accordingly.

ofnext month" This is pure nonsense What
ever chances Juareg may have of restoration.
II cannot be effected until the French shall!
have withdrawn, an event which will not occur
before tho end Of March at the earliest.
But the idea that General Csstelnau
and Macmillan favor Juar-s ia a gross
mistake. Juareg has declared in the
most emphatic manner that he will have
no dealings with the French, and will no, re-.
cognize the French debt, in case he should re-
turn to power. On their side the French have
made an equally emphatic deolaration--that
they will prevent by all the means In their
power the return Of Juares to the Presidency
Therefore II IS far more likely that the French,
seeing that the empire and Macmillan must
fall, should turn their attention to the opponent
Of Juarez; and II will very probably turn out,
there be . secret understanding between
General Castelnau and Macmillan, that Orsega

mise to recognize the French debt, that is, the
original debt on account OF which the interven-

the French on his aide. The whole question has
now resolved itself into the original one, which
is enlarged into the magnificent idea Of course
Of policy from which the empire Of Maxi.

Of money. The political idea has now been
abandoned, aud oil that France now asks Is
money. Juarez will not give her cent, and
in order to checkmate him II Is not unlikely
that Ortega may promise TO pay everything.
What the Mexican Congress may say hereafter
TO this promise TO pay it would be impossible
TO predict with certainty; but as far a. the two
candidates for the Presidency are concerned, Ia
their intrigues for French favor and imperial
sympathy, Jusre, does not occupy the most
favorable position. OF two evils the French
will choose the lesser. Ortega's promises may
