are full Of rumors OF uprisings and invasions, and
our readers cln believe a much Of them a. they

An interesting item in the European adyices Is
the notice Of the great Reform meeting in Lon
don, where $4,000 working men joined in q pro-
cession, marching under banners and flags, among
which were eight American flags. Even the
bands took up tie favOrite Yankee airs. and the
whole marched TO the tunes Of old John Brown,
Yankee Doodle, and Marching through Georgia.
This is something new for Old England, and shows
at least that her muscle and sinew are reused for
a peaceful conflict for their manhood and their
rights. If there IS a thing on earth unmanly,
ignoble and impolitic. II IL the deprivation by law
Of the natural rights belonging to man, for no
fault or negligence of his own. but solely because
he is poor. An EngIishman may be honest, hard
working. and capable of enjoying al the privi-
leges of society bat if he be poor and has not
been able. from circumstances beyond his control,
10 acquire property, he is not allowed to vote or
say one word in the administration of his Gov
ernment. The Reform movement is intended to
correct this palpable wrong. and will soon accom-
piish it.
Referring 10 this great demonstration, the Alta
SAYS = We have by the cable news of a tremend-
Gus Reform demonstration in London. 1t is esti-
mated that there were az least 50 600 men in the
procession. There was an AnerioaniSn, 50 10
speak, about the whole affair. fattering in q very
eminent degree-large divisions, seven stands
erected at the place OF meeting, and the Stars and
Stripes everywhere conspicuous. 1t is very evil
dent that they are having an exciting tine in
= Merry England just now. These are strange
and unusual proceedings. The Tories will have

The Mexican question IS still in suspense. It
will be observed that the Washington Cabinet has
sent a lengthy communication 70 Paris by the
Atlantic cable, which had been laid before the
French Government. As near az We can gather,
the state Of the case is this The French Govern
ment proposed and agreed 10 withdraw its troops
from Mexico in three deulchments-oue in No
vember, 1866. another in the spring Of 1867, and
the remainder in the autumn Of the same year.
1t appears 70 have failed 10 carry out the first
clause Of It's engagement. and has asked permits
sion TO delay the removal OF troops, guaranteeing
that all shall be removed before November. 1867.
1t Is 10 this. probably, that Mr.. Stewards despatch
relates. and from the tenor of the various tele-
CIV Il: . - irfarr-d thar rho American Gov
eminent has determined TO hold France 10 the
original engagement which she herself proposed,
and will insist on the troops being recalled from
Mexico. The report of serious trouble between
America and France, which the telegraph gives,
Is not reliable. Neither government will ever 20
to war on account of Mexico.
If the DISPATCHES are to be relied on, the En-
peror Macmillan has gone back to the city of
Mexico, but for what purpose is not clear. One
tatement says, to resume the reins of govern
ment; another TO prepare a formal abdication.
Whatever it be, his Is no enyiable position, and
his departure is only a question Of time.
The Future ofthe Hawaiian Race.
What is to be the future destiny of the Ha-
waiian race? is a question of interest to all. 1t
is one of deep solicitude to those who have, here
and in other lands, watched over the progress
and labored for the advancement of this nation
in civilization and religion. They do not and
