A Chapter of Mexican History.

M. Masseras' article upon the fall of
Macmillan has called forth wide comment,
and the facts which we publish elsewhere,
contributed mainly by Don Juan de Dios
Arias, private secretary to Escobedo, who
captured Macmillan at Queretaro, have
special importance. While the relations
of the Napoleonic Empire to Maximilian's,
and those Of the United States government
to the Mexican liberals under Juarez, have
have the acts recalled which show what was
done by the Mexicans themselves toward
the overthrow of the deserted Emperor.
1t may be too soon to finally pass upon the
question of how much the withdrawal
of the French, the attitude Of the
United States or the bravery of the liberals
severally contributed to the event that
was sealed when Macmillan was shot to
death, but no one can say that to any one
or two of them it is to be wholly credited.
In the meantime all that can be learned upon
the subject from the pens of those who took
important parts in it is OF value. Whether.
for instance, the whole scheme SO costly
to France and Mexico, and which begun
the catastrophes of Napoleon ILL.,, grew out
Of the intrigue of Swiss capitalist to col
lect a sum he had loaned certain Mexican
rulers for the time being, is q matter
worth further investigation. The por-
ton of the narrative we publish to-day
relating the moveme nts of the Mexican
patriot battalions after the red trousered
French army, minus its deserters, had dis
appeared from Mexican soil, will be found
interesting as well as that abiding to Mar
shall Bazaine's experience in the grocery
and drygoods line in the City Of Mexico.

The struggle of capital in England to re-
tain its hold upon the trade which fattened
it has precipitated in turn struggle of
labor against capital. Capital there sees no
way out Of it's dilemma but that of cutting
down the wcrkingmen's wages. Labor in
dignantly refuses to believe that there is no
other remedy, and asks fora cutting down of
profits instead. This has been the history off
hundred strikes within the past six months
in which capital has almost uniformly
gained it's point. After eating up their
spare resources and finding capital still
uncoerced the trade unions have in the
end submitted to the masters terms. 1t is
brutal process, in which the masters en-
ploy the weapon of hunger and the trade
unions that of financial ruin. In mines, fac
tories, furnaces and shipyards, on railroads
and docks, the same battle has been fought
and is waging. Labor succumbs, but
whether even this will bring back the de-
clining trade of Great Britain is very ques-
tionable. When both labor and capital
admit that the great day of England's COM
mercial supremacy is over they must seek
other lands over which the star of destiny
is rising. Labor and capital must emigrate.
Our cable dispatches this morning show
that this conclusion is being arrived at,
for the North Wales Miners Association
has resolved to vote thirty-fve dollars to
such of it's members as desire to emigrate
to America and seventy dollars to those
who would go to Australia. This is be-
ginning, but by and by the outpouring will
be such that no laborers' society could meet
the expense Capital as well as labor will
seek opportunities upon the banks of the
Hudson, the Passaic, the Connecticut and
the Merrimac; for, no more than the la
borer, con capital remain idle, and the
balance now so rudely disturbed will be
once more readjusted to the continuous
accretion of Americas prosperity

The WEATHER.-The barometer is high
throughout all the districts except over New
England, where il is relatively low, rs the
disturbance which extended over Nova
Scotia Oh Saturday has not passed entirely
away, and in the extreme Northwest, where
another depression is approaching 1t is
highest in the Lower Mississippi and Mis-
souri, valleys, where clear, cold weather
prevails. The winds have been generally
brisk in all parts of the country except the
West and Southwest, where they have increased
considerably. Rain has fallen on the South At
lantic coasts and snow in the lake regions. The
temperature has fallen decidedly throughout
the country cast Of the Rocky Mountains The
depression that has made its appearance
in the Northwest is not likely to az
feet the weather of our district very
much during its passage, because the area
of high barometer that overlcs the southern
and central districts will tend to direct its
movement through the British Possessions to
the st. Lawrence Valley. Some of the South
ern rivers are still rising, and floods are
expected. The weather is more favorable
over the British Islands, the depression that
rived on Saturday, as stated in the special cable
printed yesterday, having passed over The
weather in New York and its vicinity to-day
will be cold and fnir. Tomorrow 1t will be
partly cloudy or fair, with rising temperature.

OF running two roads, side by side, west
Of Herop Lake. The meating only re-
suited In bad blood, and rumor says
thst both parties came out determined
70 fight it out on that line, if it took all

We give this as rumor merely, and
hope, II true, that another attempt at
reconciliation will be made. To us. it
books like the greatest folly for the two
roads to push through on that line. If
the Sioux City & st. Paul road pushes
on from Heron Lake it will cut of the
Soutl,ern Minnesota north, while if it
holds the branch, il will cut off nearly
