There has yet been no authorita-
tive denial Of the authenticity of Max
imiiian's proclamation, publishe
week before last, and it is still be-
lieved to be genuine.
!. sAIt is stated that the plea for Max.
has been refused, and a request has
been made for a postponement of the
trial for thirty days, that they might
have time to prepare defense.
1t was also reported that the En-
peror had been sentenced, and that

report can be traced TO no good

Now as the necessity Of feeding and clothing
the slaves was IN one sense, drawback upon
the improvement OF the land, and had to be
deducted from the profits which their labor
yielded, so. now that the negroes are under the
necessity of maintaining themselves, there is u
greater encouragement to Improvement and
an appreciation in the value of the land. The
planter who formerly invested his surplus CAPT

it for fertiizing and improving his land to such
degree that, although be may not be able to

The effect Of this change will become more
manifest whenever society and business in the

We by no means agree to the general propo-

Southern cnuntry is in what may be called an
