the Reign ofTerror is gaining strength
with every new draught Of human
blood. The people appear TO be mad
for the moment, and their leaders an
pear utterly powerlessto stay the tor
rent OF vengeance which is now over
taking all who are not Mexicans
Even that proviso has not saved the
life Of the well known General vi.
daurri, whose exploits along the line
of the Rio Grande during the past few
years, had made his name wcll know
in the United States. We are not ap-
prised of the charges against him.
That, however, is matter OF but lit
tie account. Not 10 be a 1Reaction-
ist" now, is to be traitor, and to be
a traitor is TO be sympathizer with
foreigners, and 10 be a sympathi1er
with foreigners is-"to be shot"
Gen. O'lIaran has also been sent 10
his final account, not by the bullets Of
Diaz, nor Eseobedo,-but by can in
furiated mob"
The Mexicans are now passing
through their jacobinical era, and the
Reign Of Terror and Blood will have
its way, we suppose, until, passing
through all the regular gradations,
some new military dictator or despot
restores protection to lie and proper
ty, through the instrumcntality of
the sword .U
The fall Of Macmillan has undoubt-
edly opened the door again to "chaos"
in Mexico. As one evil passes away
in that distracted country, another
arises TO keep the nation in continued
uncertainty of its fate.
To give an idea of the number and
variety Of dynastics which have fol-
lowed one another in rapid succession
during the tumultuous epochs of the
past forty-fve years in Mexico, we ap-
pend the following list of rulers in
that country since the time of its In
dependence, in the year 1921:
1921. Iturbide, Gcneral.in-Chief
1922. Iturbide Emperor.
1928. Generals Guerrero, Bravo and Negrcte,
Dicalors.

BY this it will be seen that Mexico
has passed the forms Of a Republic,
Empire, and Despotism, returning to a
so-callcd Republic, butnot TO tranquil
ity and repose, as shown by the upris-
ing which eontending chieftains and
factions have &C .nmenced afresh since
Maximilian's fall "Uhaos has come
again"
This state Of things all arises from
the fact that the Mexioans are a Mon
rel race--a mixture of whites, me-
groes and Indians-creatures of the
Charles Sumner persuasion, and the
class that Radicalism is preparing for
this country.
