Each has its peculiar greatness The Pyram ids
show state Of civi zatiOn in which absolute power
was vested 10 one person, and are themselves the
results Il that power exercised without mercy upon
poor humanity. The Grecan statues aud the

FRANCE.

PARIS, Friday, March 20, 7 am.
The Transatlantic telegraph lately
brought news of a victory gained by the
Emperor Macmillan over $500 insur-
gents, or "dissentients," by which mild
name the French papers designate those
who are in arms against his authority;
but the news of a reverse said to have
been suffered by the Imperialists, just af-
ter they had inflicted a previous defeat
on the Juarists and captured Zacatecas,
has not yet been corroborated in any
authentic manner. The Mexican agents
in Europe deny that they have received
any such information from their Govern
ment, and generally attach little import
anc,e to intelligence nnfavourable TO their
cause that comes to Europe by way of
the United States. According to the
latest trustworthy accounts received here.
Maximilian's army numbered $4,000 Ell.

Los ANGELES, May 4.-From Prescott,
Arizona, via Fort Mojave, we have the
following Arizona items:
Captain Williams and party Of 80 men
are out on q scout with Tom Hodges as
o guide. They had been out about ten
days. The Indians stole stock from
the ranches Of Giles and harrington,
adjoining the town Of Prescott. An In
dian trail was seen crossing the road
between the military post and town.
Lieut.. Hobert and forty men have gone
on a scout to scour the valley. Tho
troops are all out, except enough to do
garrison duty. Mr.. Sessions met, near
the tanks on the Mojare road, Captain
Young and command on a scout. The
Indians had stolen FIVE Of Hsrdy's
mules from the toll-gate within ten feet
of the door, several men being in the
house at the time. Wycks, on the 18th,
was chased by The Hualapais from tho
Springs to Cottonwood-a distance Of
fifteen miles. The next mail rider saw
only two Indians on his way 10 Prescott.

THE SOUTHERN METHODIST CHURoH.-
Some time ago a vote was taken in the
various Conferences Of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South upon two pro-
positions: that the name Of the Church
should be changed, and that there
should DO lay representation in the vari-
GUS Conferences. Returns from all the
Conferences were received at Richmond,
and the result is announced by an
official Council Of Bishops. With re-
gard to a change Of name, 1888 Of the
clergy voted for it in the Conferences,
and 400 sgsinstit it. On Lay Representa-
ton the yeas were 1899 and the nays
81. The conditions of the election
were that three-fourths of the whole
number of votes cast should be neces-
sary to amend the constitution of the
Church, SO that the proposed change Of
name was lost. Lay representation,
was, however, carried, and will here
after be observed in the Southern
Methodist Church.
