From Havana and Mexico.

NRw YoRK, Jan. 2.-The steamship Eagle
from Havana December 29, arrived here this
evening. Our letter is as follows:
HAVANA, Dec. 29-From Mexico We are
having more decided news than for some time
past. The large steamer Florida left Vera
Cruz on the 18th with LOO French troops,
and what is Of more Importance, with q full
cargo of arms and ammunition.
A French war vessel arrived at Vera Cruz
on the 10Th from New Orleans with cable
dispatches FROM Napoleon saying that all tho
transports would arrive there in January,
and that he expected oil the French troops
to be on board within three weeks after their
arrival. Everything indicates that the French
are Fastening the evacuation.
Maximilian was at Puebla on his way tc
the city Of Mexico, and will doubtless remain
until after the departure Of the French
troops, when he will probably attempt to
leave. This will prove hazardous step, as
even his present friends-accomplices, as
EStgtette calls them-will turn upon him
Vera Cruz, and, in fact, the whole country
is full Of rumors, and It is difficult to get al
the truth. The Liberals are ready the mo
ment that Marshal Bazaine leaves the city O
Mexico to throw in 5000 or 10000 troops
and it is even reported that so great is Ba
zaines. anger at Macmillan and his wifi,
that he will connive with Juarez to preven
the Imperialists from proceeding.
II is also reported that o quantity Of mus.
kets have been condemned and secretly sole
to the Liberalists as being useless, on accoun
Of the difficulties Of transportation over tn,
mountains to Vera Cruz. This seems proba
BILE, as Bazaine wishes to revenge himself OF
Carlotta for traducing him at the Court o.
France, and will do what he can to annoy
Macmillan and PROSTATE his plans.
Marquee and Miramon are trying to raise
men and money, but without success; nor is
it believed that they will accomplish any
thing.
The United States steamer Winooski made
q splendid passage Of six days from here Ia
Tampico and Vera Cruz, arriving at the lat
ter port on the l4th inst.
Tho French Admiral, Clunay, visited her
and salutes were exchanged.
The Liberals are almost in possession o.
the road from Mexico TO Vera Cruz. The
mails are captured and the horses takeI
from the stages; and it is supposed the
march Of the French troops to the coast will
be much harassed, though no visible enc
mics will make any opposition.
A detachment OF French troops were ut.
tackled at Arrozegan and twenty to twenty
FIVE men were killed and wounded. Accord
ing to the French accounts the enemy's losi
was greater. Another detachment, under
Heekeyen, was attacked at Cuantillon and
Heekeyen wounded in the thigh.

From Alabama.

MONTGOMERY, Dec. 3O.-Senator Parsons,
Of this city, has returned to his home from his
late visit to Washington. He is still decided
in the expression of his opinion that the State
Of Alabama ought not to accept the amend,
ment, and urges upon the Legislature and
people to stand firmly by the President, and
trust to him for finally satisfactory issue
The Northern people, he says, will yet sec
the wisdom Of the South in refusing to &C.
cept the amendment, and when once q cor.
rect view is taken they will adopt such meas,
ures as will secure the restoration of Ala.
bama and all the States to their political
equality in the Union.
MOBILE, Dec. 30.-It is officially announced
that the visit of Gov. Patton to the North
is not Of strictly political character, but
that he proceeds thither at the request Of
certain bondholders, with view to arrange,
II possible, for an extension Of the time re-
quired for the payment Of interest, and thus
save the credit Of the State. Independent Of
this, however, Gov. Patton was delegated by
the meeting at his home to proceed to Wash.
ington and confer with the President and
others upon the question Of the amendment
as applicable to the restoration Of the State.

Extra session Of the Ohio LegIsIa-

Extrn Session Of the Ohie, LegisIa-
ture-Message Of Cor, Cox.
CNcIssArj Jan. 1.-The OhiJ Legislature
in extra session convened at Columbus at 10
O'Clock to-day. Gov. Cox's message is quite
lengthy, and treats principally Of State af
fairs The finances Of the State are repre-
sented to be IN Hourishing condition. The
balance in the State treasury on Nov 18th
was over 81 ,02l 900. Total amount collected
on the tax duplicate for the fiscal year Ia
over S20,S70,00O. The State debt on Nov
18th was Sl2, 1912 900. The commissioners Of
the sinking fund have paid and discharged
during the past year over 81 ,097, 900, and
the payment to be made by them during the
present month will reduce the total debt to
a little over gil BAL 900. q
During the coming four years, S5,S44 900
Of the debt and interest will become paya-
BILE, but It's discharge will require no add.
tional taxation. The total valuation Of
property in the State subject to taxation in
1867 is 81, LOG, ,20s, 900, equal to about one
per cent. on the whole outstanding debt Of
the State. The finances Of the State were
never in as favorable condition as now, and
the States credit in the market is not sur
passed by any other State or Government in
the world. The benevolent institutions Of
the State are represented as being in good
condition and conducted with proper econ
omy.
The Governor says that the record by the
Ohio soldiers enlisted during the war has
been compiled, and he recommends the pro-
priety Of following the example Of nearly all
the other States in publishing and making
available to the world the only complete and
authentic evidence Of the patriotic efforts Of
the State in the great national struggle In
speaking Of national affairs, he says Of the
Constitutional Amendment:
at contains provisions which, in the wis
dom Of the national Legislature, are neces-
sary to secure permanent peace throughout
the country and to correct the palpable
evils remaining in those States which were
lately in rebellion-evils which, without such
correction, would endanger the national safe
ty, and be lasting source Of irritation and
strife. Several Of the States have already
ratified the amendment, but deeply regret
that it has been rejected by several Of those
whose ratification would do most to make
the measure the promise and beginning Of
that full settlement Of our internal dissen-
sions, for which we all long. l am not with
out hope that mature consideration and
calm reflection will convince even those who
rejected the proposal that justice, right, and
q wise self.interest, alike dictate reconsid-

HARRISBURG, Jan. 2.-Gov. Curtin's mes
sage was delivered to the Legislature to-day.
The Governor says: "The extraordinary ex-
penditures during the war and since Its close,
in payments growing out Of IL, by the author
ity OF the acts Of Assembly, have amounted
to upwards Of $5,000,000, which, added to
the actual payments Of the indebtedness Of
the State, and the money in the treasury for
that purpose, shows the revenues, above the
ordinary expenditures, to have amounted TO
$40 900, which would all have been ap-
piled to the payment Of the debt Of the Com.
monwealth in the last six years. A careful
attention to the revenues OF the Common
wealth, with such just and prudent changes
as may be required in future, and wise
economy in expenditure, will, in my judg.
ment, insure the entire payment Of the pub
lie debt within the period Of fifteen years.
The time fixed for the redemption Of
| $23, ,l0S, ,626.24 Of the Indebtedness Of the
Commonwealth having expired, 1 recommend
that provision be made for its tsredemption by
making q new loan for that purpose, payable
at such periods as the prospective revenues
will justify.
The Governor recommends the adoption
Of the Constitutional Amendment in On able
and statesmanlike argument.
The balance Of the message refers to local
affairs.
He recommends that provision be made
for the maintenance of such Of our soldiers
as are in poverty, and have been so manned
as to prevent them from securing liveli-
hood by their labor, until the arrangements
proposed by the National Government for
their support are completed.

The New Orleans Riots.

NEw ORLEANS, Jan. 2.-The Congressional
Riot Investigating Committee closed taking
testimony to-day. They omitted taking the
testimony Of many witnesses who were be-
fore the grand jury and others whose names
were furnished by the city and State officers.
In examining to-day Judge Theard, the
judge who holds under an appointment from
Hahn and Wells, their questions and remarks
to him evidently showed that they had al.
ready decided the case, and could brook no
statements which did not own disloyalty to
be the sentiment Of the people.
Judge Theard declaring the people loyal
and the rights Of Union men respected, the
Judge was asked il he had been in the Con,
federate service, to which he replied that he
returned to his allegiance in 1864. This wa,
much earlier than was done by many Of the
prosecuting witnesses.

The National Bank of the Metro.
polls.

A contemporary yesterday transferred to
its columns notice dated Nov. 80, 1866, to
the effect that the bank named above would
close up its affairs according to the law in
such case made and provided by act Of Con-
gress. This notice was published not only
in New York paper, as required by law,
but also in Washington journal. If the
Washington print was SO obscure that our
friends Of the Star failed to notice the fact
of the publication, they are not blameable in
that matter, but the truth is that the Bank
of the Metropolis, fully able and quite ready
to meet all its liabilities, land to receive the
dues of its debtors,) is closing its business in
this city according to law, notice Of the same
having been given more than a month ago.
