From the accounts we have lately re-
ceived from Mexico, including our correspond
ence Of yesterday it is evident that the unruiy
republicans of Aztec descent are cogni cant Of
the fac! that the eyes Of the world arc upon
them. They are trying TO prove q very diff
cult problem, and that is that Mexico is able
to preserve peace within her boundary. There
have been many reasons why, up to the present
time, the effort has been unsuccessful. Like
many other countries, they have bad terrible
religious war 10 fight out Until this was
finished there could be no hope Of peace; but
now concluded, therc is every reason to believe
that Mexico will. by wise action on the part Of
her rulers, shape her future in proper chan
nels. The internal troubles which have usually
followed great civil contests appear in this
period Of Mexican history TO have Quoted
down in the most singular manner. Hereto
fore guerilla bands, dissatisfied with revolu-
tionary results, have sprung into existence in
foci Of future troubles. At present these bands
do not exist, proving what we have hereto
fore advocatei-that the French Intervention,
in uniting all the segregated elements, did .
very good thing for the country. In four
years Of hot contest, averaging battle or .
skirmish every day during the time, they forgot
political differences incident to local politics,
to throw ell the national force into resistance
against foreign invasion. Herein lies the secret
Of the present quiet
The reelection Of Juarez by an almost unani-
nous vote is also very good indication that
there will be permanent peace for were tho
election equally divided between two rival
candidates It would indicate that some vital
principle was ct stake which might In such .
country mean revolution. The whole nation,
in electing Juarez, shows itself to DO intensely
disposed to support the principles Of tho liberal
party, which is the party following, as rapidly
as possible, in that pathway of government
which we in the United States have shaped.
1t is tho party eminently progressive, and
means tho greatest and most rapid internal de-
velopment OF Mexico in the shortest possible
time.
The great commercial interest we have In
the peace sble condition of Mexico leads ms 10
the support Of every element there which lends
itself to the desired result The more peacea-
BILE our neighbor is, the more valuable 1t will
be towards the quieting of our own internal
disscnsions. We should have q trade Of twenty
or thirty millions Of dollars annually with
Mexico, and should increase it indefinitely.

The two most prominent democratic favorites
for the next Presidency are Horatio Seymour,
of New York, and George H. Pendleton, of
Ohio. They are both distinguished as men Of
ability aud experience in political affairs, and
each Ii popular among the democratic masses
a. Q faithful exponent Of democratic principles
Seymour in 1862, on his platform of - more
vigorous prosecution of the war;" carried the
State Of New York by ten thousand majority,
against popular republican general, engaged
at the time in the war but was defeated in
1864 on the peace platform Of the Chicago
Peace Convention, which also carried down
Mr.. Pendleton, the associate of General
Mcclellan on the democratic Presidential
ticket The war record Of Seymour, however,
is much better than that of Pendleton, who can
boast with vallandigham only that he never
voted man or dollar for war which he be-
lieved to be unconstitutional
But the war is now among the things of the
past, and the great living questions of taxation
and the payment Of the national debt are COM
ing into the foreground. Upon the important
question Of the national debt Seymour and
Pendleton stand as widely separated as Greeley
and Ben Butler. Seymour, like Greeley, holds
to the redemption Of the national debt in coin (;
Pendleton, like Butler, goes for paying of the
bondholders In greenbacks. Seymour repre-
sents the Belmonts and other democratic bond

democratic masses, IL not the masses Of both
parties, in the West "Down with the system
which gives gold to the bondholder and paper

cry in 1910 against Martin Van Buren's Sub
Treasury system, OF "Down with this system

and Pendleton as their Presidential candidate

have 70 choose between the plan Of paying of
the national bondholders in gold and the

is the issue between Seymour and Pendleton
and from the drift Of the late election In Ohio
Pendleton has the inside track for the demo-
cratic nomination.

Our news from Europe daily becomes more
exciting. 1t becomes hourly more and more
impossible to look at this Italian difficulty by
itself alone. 1t is, after all, less an Italian
than European question. No matter how our
sympathies may tend, II Is impossible longer to
believe that Garibaldi Is to be able on this
occasion yet to give Rome to Italy. At the
same time the situation Is complicated in the
extreme. Garibaldi may be defeated and COM
peIied to retire; but the questions still remain
What is to be done with Rome, and what is to
be tho fate Of Italy! Rome may fall into the
hands Of the French, but what are the French
to do with it, The Italian government may
have occasion to make q pre.ence Of rejoicing
that the GSribaldian movement has been sup
pressed In f1e Pontiical territory; but what
are they to do with the Garibaldians, who in
clude in their number all the men
and women OF Italy! The French occu-
patton Of Rome will be no settlement
of the difficulty 1t will still remain
a qugstio Uerata, y question to be decided,
ultimately, in favor Of Italy. Meanwhile, seri-
tons which may prove ruinous to Victor
Emanuel and scarcely less ruinous to Louis
Napoleon. Italy may yield to circumstances
which she is too weak to resist; but
Italy cannot be compelled to love sovereign
who has proved himself unworthy Of his
position and but little entitled to the affec-
ton of his people. Italy in open and general
revolution and Victor Emanuel dethroned,
are not certainly impossibilities in the early
future. Nor will It at all surprise us If this
interference In Roman and Italian affairs begets
revolution In France. No one can deny that
Napoleon holds with firm hand the reins OF
government in France, and that he has In some
respects been q blessing TO his people; but
there are few on the other hand, who will re-
fuse to admit that tho French people, and
particularly Of late years, have revealed
little impatience under the yoke The
foreign policy Of the Emperor has for
some time past been singularly unfortunate.
His Mexican, his German, his Italian schemes
have all, from certain point Of view, been
failures. If this too, results in failure, his
prestige will be seriously broken. France the
more eagerly watches the Emperor's policy
that Prussia is pushing her successes to point
that is, 10 say the least, more than irritating.
While Napoleon tri6es with the Papscy and
acts the part of small Charlemagne, Bismarck,
astute and unwearied. hurries to victory.
Some of our most recent news shows that the
South German Stakeholder, Wurtemberg,
Bavaria, Electoral Hesse-had joined the Con-
federation Of the North, and that 1t wants but
the German States Of Austria to make Germany
one and indivisible. Napoleon cannot like
this; France must like II less.

Exiled, not executed, Antonio Lopez de
Santa Ana was expected at Havana on the
25th OF October by the Spanish steamer Mar
sella; but II seems that he preferred waiting
for an American steamer, and II is probable
that he will choose neither Havana, nor Kings
ton, nor Carthagena, but New York for his
future residence. Let him steer clear OF sea-
sharks and landsharks, and the remnant Of his
fortune may suffice to enable him to pass the
balance Of his days here comfortably. He will
have abundant leisure 10 write the history Of
the remarkable vicissitudes Of his public life

In every amusement season there is always
some peculiar entertainment that recommends
itself specially to the public. This season has
two novelties that form its most attractive
features. One Is Mrs. Theresa Yelverton, who
will commence series of readings from the
English and American poets ct Irving Hall
on Thursday next, and the other is Charles
Dickens, who will also give readings in this
city, commencing at Steinway Hall, Decem-
ber9. The manager or agent Of the last men,
toned novelty has already made . serious
mistake in fixing the price Of tickets ct one
dollar and half, which is, undoubtedly, de-
preciating the value Of his chief Three dol
lars ticket would not be objected to in this
city, and the manager evidently does not I'M
derstand the sentiments of the people Of New
York in making the terms at so low . figure.
We hope the Same mistake will not be made
in Mrs. Yelverton's case. Both the lady and
gentleman are excellent readers, and their en-
tertainments are sure TO draw large and bril-
liant houses. They ought to be made the
leading attractions Of the amusement season,
in . pecuniary point Of view, a. they are
in the popular occupation Of the term.

A PeEjured VilIain-A Triple
Crime.

- On Saturday last our quiet town was
made the seat of triple case of crime,
perjury, seduction and rape, upon the per-
son of a girl only IA years old (small of her
age), and that, too, by her own brother-in-
law. The circumstances are as follows:
Some two or three years ago one George
De Bussey married a daughter of one Henry
Hysell, living near this city. A few months
ago his wife was taken Sick with the con-
sumption, and shortly before her death she
was removed to her fathers house, where she
passed her few remaining days, and where,
aleo, De Bussey has remained ever since,
enjoying the full confidence of the family,
and his brutal designs were not discovered
until last Saturday, when he, by making
oath to false certificate, obtained license
from the Probate Judge, proceeded to
Mayor Lees office, and was married to his
sister-in-law, girl only IA years old, and
very small of her age, without the knowl-
edge or consent of either father or mother.
The child being interrogated as to the
cause of her conduct, disclosed the fact that
the tiend had employ ed drugs, and even
violence to consumate his hellish designs ::
and afterwards used threats of exposure.
thus intimidated and induced her to marry
him. The child is to be regarded as an OBJ
Ject of pity, rather than contempt. But
language fails to describe the utter con-
tempt and scorn, with which all right
minded persons must regard such brutal
fiendish and hellish a villain.
While in conversation with the heart
broken parents wewere informed that they
had lost three children by death, but that
aff1iction was easily borne compared with
the present. A warrant was procured for
the scape-gallows, but he succeeded in
eluding the officer and made his escape
into Virginia. -..... -..r--T D.

A Disgrace to Humanity.

A woman, who was wrongly confined
three y ears in the Illinois insane asylum,
makes a horrid disclosure of the outrages
and cruelties practiced there. One process
of punishment is to fit the patient with a
strong, closely fitted waist or Jacket"
with sleeves coming below the hand, and
sewed up, having single loophole through
which strong cord may be passed. Her
arms are then crossed in front, the hands are
drawn tightly behind her, and she thrown
violently upon the floor, face downward :;
her clothing is removed or turne up. and
then she is beaten tillher flesh is but a jelly.
They are stripped and plunged into cold
baths until life is nearly extinct. Others,
for the slightest Offense, are pounded and
kicked in the most terrible manner. Pa
tients are often choked until their faces are
black and their tongues hang out OF their
mouths. A lady of refinement, of pure and
virtuous character, and nature remarka-
bly, true to the instincts of a true woman,
before being there thirty-six hours, was
stripped of all her clothing except a torn
chemise, and laid upon her back upon the
floor, DIR. -- sitting astride her naked
body, while the attendants applied the strap
to her quivering limbs. Insanity appears
to be treated as a crime, and all are ready
to punish the criminals. Such state of
things is disgrace to humanity.

Whole Fields of Grain Destroyed
by Pigeons. +
IFrom the Dubuque Herald, May ,

The farmers of many of the western
counties are much troubled with pigeons i;
in fact, these hordes have become a per-
feet scourge. Vast flocks have made their
appearance, the air in many places being
literally darkened, and, having migrated a
long distance from the South, they are very
voracious. These flocks alight upon the
fields of new sown grain, and, rolling over
and over like the waves of the sea, pick up
every kernel of grain in sight. 1t is i'm
possible to drive them away; they are un-
mindful of the firing of guns, throwing
of stones, shouting of men, or barking
of dogs; and it is an easy task to kill
any number of them with a pole. One
farmer. residing two miles east of In
dependence, had sown three acres of
wheat, and was preparing to harrow it
in. when the pigeons made their appear
ance and gobbled up every kernel before
he could get it covered. Some fields con-
tanning forty acres, were absolutely cover
ed with pigeons, and, although the sports
men waged an incessant warfare against
them, and killed great numbers of them,
their places were soon supplied with Others
Hunting pigeons has lost the charm OF nov-
city, anC the main question is how to save
grain. With the present high price of seed
wheat, and its scarcity, this becomes ques-
tion of serious consideration. A great
number of fields will have to be sown a
second time, and we hear of some farmers
who are doing it the third time. From all
accounts the main depredations of the
feathered scourge appeared to be confined
to- the region of country bordering the
Wapsipinicon, as but comparatively little
damage is reported along the Cedar river.
