STOCKHOLM, October THE King
closed the session of the Keichstadt
in person to-day, and addressed the
body concerning the state of the King
dom. He expressed great regret at
the failure Of the Lower Chamber to
act on the army reorganization bill,
thereby compelling the postponement
of the action authorized by this i'm
portant measure. He deemed the
question of national defence too great
to be thus suspended.

MEXICO. Q
Jaurcz was installed President last
night amidst great excitement. There
are numerous changes in the Cabinet.
All is quiet here. The Presidents
message is conciliatory, but firm. 1t
recommends material improvement in
building railroads, protection to the
coast, and sanctions making treaties
with foreign nations. The President
has a majority in Congress.
: Another revolution, however, has
begun in the State of New Leon -
General Pedro Martinez has pronoun-
ced against the Juarez Government.
The State authorities and severl other
chieftains have joined the movement.
Their combined forces are said to be
marching IN Camargo and Matamoras
with the view Of occupying the Gus
tom-house on the frontier. The first
step taken by the authorities of New
Leon was to throw into prison all the
employees of the Federal Government.
1t is expected that the revolution will
become general. The Matamoras
frontier is yet quiet. General Corti
mas has issued q proclamation urging
a fight for Juarez. Great preparations

The Election.

The Democracy have carried Ash
land county by an average of about
three hundred majority. The major
ity for Mr.. Yearick, for Treasurer,
will be about five hundred and fifty
and that of Mr.. Kenny, for Judge.
about two hundred and twenty. A
spurious ticket headed Democratic"
with the name of Mr.. Dirlam inserted
in place of Kenny, was circulated ex.
tenavely in tie county, and no doubt
largely voted without detection. This
trick shows to what extent the Re-
publicans Will depart from the rules
of honesty to carry a point, and will
not escape public eensure. We have
not, as yet, obtained sufficient details
to learn whether the district is all right;
but presume it is. We have up to
this time. no reliable information as
to thc.result in the State, but are of
opinion it has gone Republican. The
"New Departure" was too much of a
load for n successful race.
N. E. Since the above was put in
type, we learn that Mr.. Kenny is de-
feated by about FIVE hundred votes.-
The State has probably gone over
twenty thousand for Noyes. We
would not have been surprised if it
had gone two hundred thousand

. In Georgia recently a white man
and a negro woman, who had been
married under a license duly issued by
the Ordinary or Clerk, were arrested
and brought into Court and convicted
of adultery and sentenced to imprison-
ment, on the ground that marriage be-
tweenqthe white alfd black races are
forbidden by a State statute, and are
therefore Illegal and void. They sued
out a'writ of habeas corpus and had
their case taken before Judge Erskine
of the United States District Court,
claiming that the law under which
they had been convicted was in con :
prevention of the first section of the
Fourteenth Amendment, which pro
vides that no State shall make or en-
force any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities of any citi-
zen of the United States. Judge Frs
kine decided that the validity of the
statute il question had not been af,
fected by the adoption of the amend
ment, and that the pretended mar
riagc of the parties was. i'll gal, and
their conviction just and proper nnder
the laws. According to this decision,
the marriage Of a White man TO a ne
gro woman is neither a privilege nor
a right. Such a decision explodes
tine amaIgamat on theories of ultra
leaders of the Republican party.

The continued agitation in the AL
