Mexico.

From the Two Republics we learn
that the Mexican Congress, ut its clos
ing session, refused TO grant the pro-
posrd notifications for the lntcr-Oce-
anic Railway Company.
Gen. Palmer having failed to sign
the bond required by the concession OF
December 30th, 1870 the executive de-
clared the act of concession forfeited
Thus many of the fair hopes which
clustered around the Rosccralz project
are consigned to the tomb of the Capu-
lets. The Two Republics, which isa
progressive journal, regrets this, ard
thinks that the Government has made
a serious mistake. Congress has grant
ed three railway concessions the
NIntam0ras, lzucan and the Pachuca.
We learn, what is more to the point,
that Congress, before adjournment, re-
ceived note from Minister Fomento,
accompanied by contract made with
Mr.. Plumb, the representatives of the
International Company of Texas, for
the establishment ofan air line interna-
tional railroad, which was referred to
the Committee on Industry, Since
the formidable competition OF the
Rosccranz scheme il set aside, ii
would appear that nothing hinders the
happy contamination OF the lntcrna-
tionnl's prospects. -GolrestOA Meas.

LAGER BEER PROHIBITED ON
SUNDAY.
Music Halls Refused License

Comments on the WaIwOrth Verdict
SENTENCED TO BE HUNG

New York, July 3.-Excise Commits
soners have adopted II resolution de-
claring all lager or malt beer intoXi
eating liquors, and that their sale on
Sunday is in violation of law; and the
Board will not grant license to any
place where music Is performed on
SUNDAY. The 18th is the date fixed for
the enforcement of the law. The effect
will be to close up all the beer gardens
and send the people over to New Jersey
or to Westminster county for lager, rs
in former years.
At the inquest in New York on the
body of Il young man named Nodlcr,
who, with his cousin, Edward Butler
was found poisoned, II was discovered
that both loved the same woman, u
Young widow, and as both could not
marry her, and one did not wish to de-
priye the other of possession, both
agreed on suicide, and Nodler sue
ceedcd.
Neither the young mans (Walworthl
cOuntenance nor dcmeanor underwent
any change after the delivery of the
verdict. The prevailing impression
here was that he would he acquitted.
The Tribune says, that never within
its memory has any greater issue been
so promptly and satisfactorily tried in
New York.
The World says the severity of the
verdict, and the reaction of the mock
ish pity, which for so long Il time bore
sway in jury boxes, has begun.
The Times says the moral effect OF
the verdict was needed, and an acquit-
tai would have been incvitableto every
youth having Il absolute or tyrannical
father, to whip him.
The Herald says the wonder is that
Justice herself was not blind on the
occasion, but society has to be protected,
and however cruel or brutal, the trial
was conducted in the most exemplary
and dignified manner.
The clstomhouso officers, charged
with aiding merchants TO delrand the
government, are each held in SSS,OOO
bail.
Starkey, who murdered Dorm, was
sentenced TO be executed on the 18TH OF

Help Yourself.

Fight YOUR own battles Hoe your
own way. Ask no favors of ane one,
and YOU will succeed better than one
who Is always seeking some ones pat
ronage. No one will eyer help you as
you help yourself, because no one VIII
be so heartily interested in your affairs.
The first step will not be. such Il long
one perhaps; but carving your way up
the mountain, you make each one lead
to another, and stand firm in that
while you chop still another out. Men
who have made fortunes are not those
who had five thousand dollars given
them to start with, but started with n
well earned dollar or two.
Men who have by their own eXcr-
tions acquired fame, hav not been
thrust into popularity by puts begged
or paid for, or given in friendly spirit.
They have outstretchcd their hands,
and touched the public heart Men
who win love do their own wooing;
and never knew man to fail so sig
nally as one who had induced his afiec-
tionatc grandmamma 70 speak good
word for him. Whether you work for
fame, for love, for money, or for any
thing else, work with your hand, heart
and brain. Say ~ will" and some day
YOU will conquer. Never let any man
have 1t to say, ~ have dragged you
upn Too many friends hurt q man

WoNDERFUI-Altho the eye of
some animals are incapable of motion,
as the fly, the beetle, and several other
insects, yet the Creator has shown His
wisdom and goodness in furnishing
their eyes wi6 thousands of little glo-
bules, and byplacing their eyes more
in front of their head, so that these lit.
tie insects can see all around them with
ont turning their heads. A gentleman
who has examined the eyes of a fly,
says, that the two eyes of a common
fly are composed of 5000 little globes,
through every one of which it is capa-
BILE of forming an image of an object.
Having prepaed the eyebf fly for the
purpose, he placed it before his micro
scope, and then loolIen through both,
in the manner of the telescope, at q
steeple which was 299 feet high and
$50 distant, and he said he could plain
ly see through every little hemisphere,
the whole steeple inverted or turned uI
side down.
