in the midst of these events mingled tissue
of good and evil fortune has fallen TO the lot of
Austria. One year ago she stood before the
world broken--it would not have seemed too
much to say ruined-Power. She had borne
up smenuously against blow after blow, but
the last stroke of Prussia was almost fatal.
The disaster of Sadowa appeared TO be the
death-knell of the Empire. But when the
spark of vitality is at its lowest in nations or
in individuals, il often suddenly revives and
burns into brighter glare than ever. Month
after month the internal condition of Austria
has fourished more and more under the Judi
cious hand of Minister as wise, il not so
ambitious as Bismark. The better days of
promise are dawning over the land. The
costly strife with Hungary is at an end, and
the ancient crown of the kingdom has been
placed upon the head of Francis Joseph at
Pesth, not merely with the approval, but with
the joy and delight of the people. The Bm-
peror is literally disposed, and he will be
warned by the past to remember that oppres-
sion recoils ultimately upon the oppressor
himself All might be hopeful at Vienna but
for that sad series of domestic calamites
which have brought affliction and desolation
to the Palace of the Kaisers. The Princess
Matilda died, under the most frightful and
heartrending circumstances, few weeks ago.
The Prince Macmillan, Of Tours and Taxis, a
near connection Of the Empress, soon followed
her to the grave. The dark shade of madness
rests over the castle at Miramar, and now, like
the messengers of woe who presented them
selves before Job, comes the tidings of the
crime at QueretarO, which shocks the whole
civilized world. To the hands of the Emperor
of the French Francis Joseph owes his most
irreparable losses, but it would be impossible
for us to realize the Indignation and horror
which to-day prevail throughout Austria and
throughout Europe at the barbarism which
has consigned Macmillan to an unknown
grave. The people believed, as Macmillan
himself did, that the Mexicans themselves
wished him to become their ruler, and twice
they sent eager deputations to him at Mira
mar, where his wife, the unfortunate En-
press Carlotta, now lies insane, urging him
to come and rule over them. We need
not retrace the melancholy history. The
American people are averse to the establish
ment of a monarchy ON this continent, but
it is impossible that they should sanction
one of the foulest and most inexcusable
murders which stains the annals of even
savage nations.

Ths.Fnte OF MnxImilian.

From Lhe Independent.
Macmillan has been shot by order of the
Mexican Government.
What shall we say of the justice or injustice
of this act
Ever and everywhere we are opposed to
capital punishment, whether for high crimes
or low, whether upon small offenders or great.
We hold with Jeremy Bentham that ''the
worst use you can put man to is to hang
him" We desire the universal abolition of
the scattold-the universal interdiction of the
death penalty. In some of the States of the
American Union a better system of public
punishment prevails; we hope to see it prevail
in all. The hangman's rope is not an instru-
ment of civilization; it is a relic of barbarism
Twelve soldiers shooting at a mans bare
breast Ain a prison-yard is not spectacle
agreeable to Christianity. Let States and
nations, as soon as possible, have done with
all these CHASTITY acts of death.
But, meanwhile, it is a solemn fact that the
death penalty, either by hanging or by shoot
ing, is the common mode, practised by the
civilized world, of Furnishing the perpetrators
of capital crimes.
The death penalty is the prevailing law in
the United States and in Mexico. This being
the case, on what criminals shall this law be
executed Shall obscure culprits taste the
DItLerneSs Vi DAeeOA low, "AN
offenders go free Shall a great nation, in
melting out the punishment Of death, say to
All the world, ''1he murderer of a man shall
be hung, but the assassin of nation shall be
pardoned %
The two greatest criminals of the nineteenth
century have been Jefferson Davis and Maxi
milan. The one was guilty OF treason against
his own country; the other, OF usurpatlon over
an alien people. If it is ever justihable to
~-...,;ab ov, criminal with death the American
&overnment ought to have executed Jefferson
Davis, as the Mexican Government has executed
Maximilian. The only vindication possible tC
fhe American Government for its release o
JefarsOn Davis is a consistent policy by The
Government, in future, of non-punishment o.
anv and all criminals by death. The escape o
Jefferson Davis ought, ipso factO, to abolish tn
death penalty for ever from the hepuDlc

gone free, then hereafter, while time shall last,
let no other and lesser wretch ever suffer death
We depreoate in Mexico, as in America, the
taking of life by the State. We believe that,
morally considered, no Government on earth
has a right to stretch a mans neck from
cross-beam, or TO shoot at his heart in pub
lie square, But such being the law of Mexico,
If any man under IL has ever proved himself
entitled to feel its edge that man was maxi
milan. IL the Mexicans were ever Justineu ln
hanging or shooting any criminal, they are are
justified in the execution of Maximllian' MOI
villain lying in any dungeon IN vera EI,uz,
for whom the laws halter Is now waiting,
could ever be Justly hung in Mexico II Maxi
milan had been pardoned.
This ambitions foreigner was, no doubt an
accomplished and amiable gentleman, but
he was not shot for being gentleman; he
was shot for being q brigand, filibuster, a
pirate a usurper, despot. He was an alien
who entered Mexico with an invading army,
and sought Herewith to overturn the Mexican
republic, and on its ruins to erect an empire.
The crime which he committed against Mexico
was just as heinous as if he had attempted it
against the United States or Canada. We
admit that if his villany had been perpetrated
against our own Government, he would pro-
baby have been bailed; but if it had been
against Canada, he would probably have been
blown, like Sepoy, from the mouth of gun.
IL OeueIdl w Washington ndu any FlBnJ 10
hang Major Andre, the Mexican Government
had ten thousand times more right to shoot
Maximilian.
The crack of the twelve rifles which uttered
this Austrian's death-warrant, and which we
hope has forever put an end to "the divine
right of kings" on this continent, is a needful
proclamation to the Old World that crowned
heads are intruders ON North American soil;
and that foreign bayonets, pointed against a
North American people, shall be thrust back
into the bosoms of those who bear them
hither.
The army of Macmillan deserved defeat,
and its leader deserved death. ".Sic sempe1

before him, and prompt to decide accord
ing to the well established rules of law
and evidence, he has shown himself a
sound, clear and practical Judge, whose
decisions and opinions have been as sell
dom reversed by the Supreme Court as
those of any other Judge of any interior
Court in the State. These opinions, many
of which have found place in our legal
reports, are sound and lucid expositions
of the law of the case before him. They
always possess the merit of adhesion to
the question at issue of clearness and
brevity. He never wanders from the
point involved, and never seeks to inject
his own notion of law or ethics into the
decisions of the courts which ought never
to be faithful interpretations of constitu-
tions and laws as they are. He is not a
judicial law maker many of whom, to the
grief of the profession we have, but ju-
dicial law expounder, leaving the making
of the laws to those whose business it is
In his charges to the jury, he lays down
the law of the case with great clearness
and leaves all questions of fact fairly to
their determination.
Judge Williams is emphatically an
honest, impartial and just Judge. He
cannot be turned hairs breadth by pre-
judice, by favor, or by interest, from
what he believes to be the justice of the
cause before him. So well is his stern
integrity as Judge understood in this
community, that no counsel or suitor ever
undertook to influence him in the decis-
ion of a cause pending before him, save
by legal argument.
Judge Williams is a Christian gen
tlemen, ripe scholar, a sound and we'll
read lawyer, and just Judge, to whom
the celebrated lines of the opening of the
third ode of Horace will apply with as
much force and truth as to any other
man:
"' 'Justum &C tenacem propositi virum,
Non civium ardor prava jubentium,
Non vultus instantis tyranni,
Mente quatt solida.
With such a candidate and in cause
so worthy, our own and the other coun-
ties of the western part of the State will
vie with Philadelphia and her sister coun-
ties of the east in raising the banner of
Freedom and the Union still higher, and

1t is not generally known that among
the most valuable mineral productions
of our State is nickel the metal so large
y used in the coinage of cents. Four
teen miles from lancaster are the Gap
mines and smelling works. The mines
were discovered many years ago, aud
about the time of the revolutionary war
were worked for copper, but were soon
abandoned, the crude machinery of that
period being i'll adapted to working them
profitably. Two generations had passed
away, and the circumstance had been for
gotten, when about fifteen years ago the
mines were reopened by company of
capitalists from Philadelphia, since which
they have been steadily worked. They
were re opened with the view of obtain
ing copper, but the ore was soon discov-
cred to be richer in nickel, more valu-
able mineral, and since then they have
been worked for that metal exclusively
The introduction Of nickel cents by the
government, and the war, which render
ed small change so scarce, gave great i'm
petus to these works. The final working
of the nickel ore is done in Camden. In
all about one hundred and fifty men are
employed at the mines and smelling
works.

Annoying and Laughable Accidental
Young Lady Falls Throuh a Buggy.

One of those annoying yet ludicrous
accidents which will happen in the best
of families occurred on Sunday not over a
thousand miles from Chicago. A dry
goods clerk had an engagement to take
his lady love out buggy riding Early in
the morning, he appeared befor her
fathers door with one of those spider-like
vehicles which are probably constructed
with view of ascertaining how light a
buggy can be made and at the same time
| be seryiceable.
The lady is sweet sixteen, beautiful,
and little bit of what is termed "fast."
She is full of life, fun and frolic, and is
decidedly combonpoint. As the young
gentleman drove up, his lady-love was
standing on the top step at the front door
with her venerable father, who had his
gold specs elevated on his forehead, in
order to get distant view of his future
SON. in law.
Adonis jumped out of the buggy, pre-
paratory to assisting the young lady in,
but she suddenly took one of those strange
freaks to which the dear sex are all sub
ject. The buggy was standing-about four
feet from the steps, and considerably be-
low the step upon which stood the young
lady. She probably wanted to convince
her lover that she was not clumsy if she
was fat, and thought this would be a
good time to show her agility. BE that
as it may, she gave jump and landed in
the centre of the buggy. If she had
stopped there all would have been well ;
but alas the thin boards of the bottom of
the buggy, unable to stand the pressure,
gave way, and the young lady continued
her descent.
There was piercing scream plung-
him; bundle of muslin in the buggy, and
two little gaiter boots pointing to within
six inches of the ground under it. Pater-
familas rushed to the rescue and detach
ed the horse from the buggy. He then
got up on one side, and the young man
on the other, and they attempted to raise
the young lady up. 80, stop, STOP you
are killing me" she cried.
The boards had broken in the centre,
and the long, sharp splinters extended
downwards, and when they attempted to
raise the young lady out of her pre-
dicament these sharp splinters would
catch. Did you ever see wire mouse
trap7 If not, go and get one, stick your
finger through the entrance tunnel and
try to pull it out. You will then under
stand the sad fix that our young lady was
in on Sunday morning.
The old man comprehended the situa-
tion in a moment. He told the young
man to get down and break the splinters
off. Young lady screamed 40, don't
aud young man didn't. At this stage of
the proceeding a practical neighbor come
up with hatchet, and the young lady.
was soon extricated from her unpleasant
situation, and soon disappeared behind
the front door.
We don't know whether the young
lady sustained any serious injury or not,
and we are not going to ask any questions
Iof that young man. Chicago Republican
