What men most covet, wealth. distinction, power,
Are haubles, nothing worth they only serve
To rouse US up, like children at the school
Are reused up to sxertion; our reward
Is the we run not in the prize.
Those few, to whom is given what they pecs earned,
Having by favor or inheritance,
The dangerous gifts placed in their hands,
Know not, nor ever can the generous pride
That glows in him who on himself relies,
Entering the lists of life. He speeds beyond
Them all, and foremost in the race succeeds,
Ills joy is not that he has got his crown,
But that the power TO win the crown is his.

How MACMILLAN AND MS GENE2ALL
DIEp.-The following particulars ct the exc
cution Of Maximilian, Miramon, and MeJla
are contained in a private letter, evidently
written by on ImperIalist, received by steam
er Golden City:
Alta distance of about 100 steps from the
place of execution MaxiEiian left his car
riaee. and went with a firm and natural step
10 the point designated. Miramun and
Meiia approached in the same manner.
though the latter with an expression of sad
ness on account Of his wife, who bad become
q maniac.
Maximilian asked who we're those ordered
to shoot him, and handed an ounce to each OF
them. Being placed between Miramon and
Maiia, he embraced them both and SAID to
Miramon . gallant man is respected by
his Soyereigns, allow me TO yield TO you the
place of honor' lie then made Miramon
take the place in the centre. ana thus al;
dressed those present: I" Mexicans the per-
sons of nv class and origin are named by
God either TO make their people happy, or
die as martyrs. Called by n part OF YOU, l
came for the welfare Of this country. Il MAS
not ambition which made me come, but The
sincere desire to forward the prosperity OF
nv adop.ed fatherland, and that of its valiant
son=. 10 wEom-before | die express my
.-rati,ude for all their sacrifices. Mexicans |!
NAV nv blood be the last shed by you, and
may it regenerate this unfortunate coun-
try" ;,
Having thus spoken, he inclined himself
and asked the blessing Of the priest. lie
lifted his eyes to heaven, advanced one step,
and Quietly awaited death, indicating his
breast with bis hands.
Miramon, drawing cat small paper. and
as if ordering battle, he spoke with voice
which touched the very fbres of the heart Z:
"Mexicans here yuu see me condemned by
military law, conden ned to die as traitor.
In the moments which are now mine, my life
belonging to the Supreme Being, proclaim
before the whole world that | never was a
traitor 10 nv country. | have defended my
opinions, and finish my days with the chief
Of nv party, but my sons shall never be
ashamed of their father. The spot OF treach'
cry dues not adhere TO me, nor shal! 1t al
here to my sons. Mexicans viva Mexico
viva the Emperor ~ These two vivas were
given with a ssentorian voice; he stepped
back, again embraced Maximilian, and await
cd death like hero.
Macmillan made over by his testament
the sum Of SO 900, 600 to be divided be-
tween the families Of the Generals and other
persons. Before he died he was informed
that Carlota had died, which made him
exclaim +" Even in this, Heaven has favored
me-" To the family Of Miramon he lef;
$50. 600; aud desires Francis Joseph to
educate as his own sons those sons worthy .oi
hero, to the last his most faithful friend.
1t is said that the perusal of Maxmilian' Z
testament brings tears to ones eyes.
Mciia to whom Escopedo owes his life
when informed Of his death warrant, sent for
him and told him . recommend to you
my only legitimate son. This is all har'
tosay to YOU. After having deprived him
of father, give him another in this unhappy
country
