TIE MEXICAN PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN

THE MEXICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANPAiGH'
While our people are hurrying from the
scorcbed cities TO tho seaside or tho noun
tains. the citizens of Mexico are involved In
the turmoil and contention of their Presiden-
tial campaign, which eliminates on the 4th
inst. The supporters Of Lerdo and Dlaz
have introduced into the contest all the Dit-
terness of personal partisanship, while Juarez
has not hesitated to use the power ana pat
ronage he wields "a President to advance his
own interests No great principles are, how
ever. at stake. The distinction between the
political parties has virtually disappeared In
tbe general willingness of all to ac-
cept the great measures OF late years az
final This fact has impelied each party
70 nominate its abest and most popular
man. President Juarez, in seeking reclec-
ton, can point to his political career OF
over twenty years, his uncompromisng con-
flct with the French, his zeal for internal
improvements, and tho general success OF his
administration. The adherent5 of Senior Lerdo
plead in his favor that he has served the
Republic faithfully in the Cabinet of Presi-
dent COmonfort, and was satisfactorily dis
charging the duties of Foreign Minister when
his nomination caused him to resign. The
other candidate, PorfriO Diaz, has fought the
enemies of the Republic on many battle-felds,
and is sustained by the warm attachment
which oOmpanionship in arms inspires
Everything, however, indicates that Presi-
dent Juarez will be rcinvested with executive
power. The temporary fusion of the Lerdo
and Diaz parties in Congress has failed in its
main purpose of disqualifying him, and tho
people can record their votes in his favor
without any fear that his reelection will afford
a valid prctext for revolution. Ia this country,
we have every reason to be gratilied at his
continuance in power. He has always cult
waited friendly relations with us, and, in doing
his best to promote tho prosperity of Mexico,
contributes to our own.

SOUTHERN MANUFACTURERS.

The Southern States grow more than half
the cotton that the world consumes, and man
ufacture but little of it. They need iron and
coal for a population of 100000, and with
extensive deposits of both they may be said
neither to smet the one nor to dig the other.
The sensible men of the South are impatient
TO alter this state of things; and in order to
second their efforts, aud under the con-
victiOn that the interests of the entire c0un-
Try are involved, we offer few suggestions.
The South must know tho nature and the
value of her resources. There was abundance
of gold in California, but during centuries
neither the Indians nor the Mexcans knew the
treasure they possessed. Pains should now be
taken to collect information respecting the in
dustrial resources of each State. and give it
the widest possible diffusion.
Laws should enable manufacturers to acquire
ncedful privileges without expense or diff
Guilty, and generous encouragement IN various
forms should be given TO all new enterprises.
Taxation should be adjusted 80 IA to favor

7UPN on THE LIGHTS.

One of the most important safeguards of IN
honest government is publicity. Let us know
who is appointed to Office, and oblige every
official to give frequent account OF his stew
ardship, and, except in some few hopelessly
corrupt organizations like the municipal system
of New-York, he must be an unusually adroit
rogue who can swindle and yet keep his place.
Even the Tammany Ring is afraid to publish
its official history in full. The whole Republi-
can press has denounced it for concealing the
actual condition of the finances, as well as the
secrecy under which it tries to hide the minor
rascalties of sinecure ofice-holders and plural
lists; and the offenses of this secret Ring Will
prove in the next political campaign one of the
heaviest of the burdens which the Democracy
will have TO carry.
But now comes story of dark lantern job
berry in our own party Ii has been publicly stated,
and is not so far as we know denied, that the
Collector of this port has induced Secretary
Boutwell, to forbid the publication of Custom
House appointmen IS. No explanation is given
of this unfortunate order; but eyll-minded
peEsons are unchaIitable enough to couple with
it the intelligence, which leaks out about the
same time. that gentleman pOpularly known
as Sam Maddox has been made deputy
Collector at Large" in the EewYOrk Custom
House Nobody has been removed to make
room for him; he is merely "put on" We
are by no means sure that Mr. Sam
Maddox is fit person to discharge
any official duties which may be
attached TO this post, and indeed it is not easy
to understand what duties worth mentioning
there can be. Each Deputy Collector has, or
should have, some particular bureau or division
under his special charge. The supervision of
these heads of bureaus is the duty of the Col
lector. What authority of law is there for
creating the additional office of Deputy Col
lector at Target And what use is there in
such an addition to the force just now when
importatons are falling OFF, We cannot i'm
agine any excuse for the existence of Mr..
Deputy Collector at Large Maddox, un-
less tho business of collecting the GUS
toms at the port of New-York includes also
the regulation of Kings County political con-
ventions. Turn on the lights, and let us see
if there are any moro new offices of the same

There! We always feared this treaty would fall
through The people of British Columbia have set
their foot down, and the great international Con-
yention has accordingly, so to speak, gone up. The
people of that mighty territory on our northwest
frontier have resolved never to submit the San
Juan question to arbitration. Like Senator Carpen-
ter, they prefer war to diplomacy. They urge the
British Government to fight to the last rather than
surrender an inch Of the disputed soil Their hero
ism in pushing the British Empire up to the scratch
has not been equaed since Artemus Ward offered to
sacrifice all his wifes relations for the suppression
of the Rebellion. OF course it is not to be supposed
that England and America will venture 10 settle
their differences without the approval of the Legsla-
tive Council of Victoria; and thus the salmon
fishers and lumbermen of Nootka and VancOuvers
Island become arbiters of the peace of two CONT
nents.

Yallandigham's platform is adopted by the
Ohio Democratic State Convention. The resO-
lutions are so numerous, so pOmpOus, and so
pedantic that they may possibly take well
with the masses Of the party. Ignorant men
will doubtless imagine that a document of
such length, and breadth, and thickness, filed
with such bgb-sOunding phrases, must have a
mighty significance. The Democracy do not
bring to light an idea every day, but when
one does fall into the nest there is a cack-

The Paris journals are busily discussing the
form of future government in France. The
Republic finds enthusiastic support from the
majority of papers, while the restoration Of
the monarchy is urged by others; but the
most significant indication of the serious ma
ture of the problem before the people is the
guarded silence Of the older and more nfiu-
ental journals. These wisely await cOntin-
gencies, inseparable from the present comph-
Gated state of affairs, before pronouncing in

How not to do jury duty is one of tho questions
which occasionally veXes the souls of busy men;
and it il always mystery TO them why the idle
loungers are not summoned. Jury duty is certainly
very obnoxious to such men, but that feeling is not
a sufficient excuse for leaving that grave public
business to those who have no other or better pur-
suit than loun0ing about the courts. There Is q
proposition pending in England to make professional
Jurors ont of bIie6ess barristers; but in this
country, where we have too much law, and lawyers
have too much pride. this rule would hardly work
well. Until however, we wisely have educated
Jurors, men Of business must be content to serve
on that duty. They will not be justified i'll
trying to avoid it as Brooklyn manufacturer
did few days ago. He was not summoned
in person, but one of his wOrkmen called upon,
and in the hope of getting him excused, the manu-
facturer sent the Judge word that if the man was
detained by the Court he would bo discharged by
his employer Tho Judge rightly construed this
to be an obstruction of the course of justice,
and had Mr.. Manufacturer brought before
him. He pleaded guilty, and was dismissed with
the unpronounced sentence suspended over his head
and to be inflicted if he again offended This is just
decision and fair warning which we commend to
the attention of all who by their recognized ignor-
ance are held'ft to be jurymen.

A writer in The american Builder falls afoui OF
"The Lecture System" which he declares to be
"run into the ground" Lecturers" he says, are
articles of trade they sell for much in the mar
ket; if they cannot got their price, they will take
lessD 1t is not easy to see the difference, however,
between lecturers and bookwriters, from the none
tary point of view. Milton, doubtless, would have
taken more, if it could have been obtained, from
Samuel Symonds, for Paradise Lost" and would
have thought it nothing scandalous if the bookseller
had been willing to pay more The man who has
goldfish or -four to dispose of wants all he can get for
his commodity, and makes no discount to q lecturer
laying in his family provisions. If this be mean
way of regarding literary work, we must blame sOci-
ETY., which has made it so. We think it infinitely
better than hanging, after the old fashion, at tho
heels of patron Lecture associations pay no more
than they think at least that they get back again In
the way of knowledge OF diversion. 1t may be as
this writer asserts that lectures cultivate love OF
the superficial and the iasby." Some of them do
and some of them do otherwise; we must take the
whole, and Jndge it by the average influence. This
substantially if estimated only matter of taste
appears to be good. Regard, if you please, lectures
as but an amusement yet even 80, they are. at any
rate a refined one. The courses we admit, are ex-
