MeXicO's EXDositiOns

The Government of our sister Republic
has definitely decided to hold an Inter-
national Exhibition at the City of Mexico
some time during the season of 1880, and
an official notification of the fact has been
promulgated. All nations are invited to
participate, without exception, and, if so
DESTROYS, each may erect pavilion on the
grounds for the exclusive use of its citi-
zens or subjects. If not so DESTROYS, the
Exhibition structure will be at its service.
Governments maintaining relations with
Mexico will be invited to send special
Commissioners; those unrepresented in
Mexico may, if they deem proper, ap-
point private agents, who will receive the
same attention and enjoy the same facili-
ties as the official ones All articles to be
exhibited will be admitted duty free, un-
less subsequently sold, and may remain
exposed six months exempt from local or
warehouse charges. This is the first at
tempt at charging its commercial rela-
tons and cultivating fraternal feelings
with the world that Mexico has ever
made, and it should awaken the attention
and receive the generous encouragement
of all progressive nations. An imposing
display of American implements, fabrics
would do much to increase the business
relations of the two countries, as well as
lead 10 more friendly feelings in the flu
ture. Details and regulations will be pub
lished In due times. r. Chronicle.

With such vast treasure-house compar-
atively untouched, there is every possible
attraction for the system of railroads that
is to push rapidly forward into the South
west and through to the Pacific. We
shall not have to wait long to see wonders
where we had supposed it was all sterility
Private capital and enterprise will accom-
plish it all-BOSton Post.

The Government is about to issue ten
dollar four per cent treasury certificates,
which will undoubtedly become popular
throughout the country. By investing in
thema poor man can place his money at
interest immediately in the simplest and
safest manner imaginable, and if he uneX-
pectedly requires money anybody will
readily accept his certificates at their face
value. This step should have been taken
long ago.-Chronicle

II. G.. Mccormick,

banquet to the Honorable Rich

printed for private distribution,
by G.. Nottingham, at the CHS
wick Press, London, MDCCC
LXXvIII; and the quality of the
paper, the broad margins, cap
tions, vignettes, initial letters,
finals, type, and, in fact, the
whole style, or make up" re-
minds us of the sixteenth CEN
fury, and one almost expects to
find the text printed in black let
ter. Aside from ali this the con-
tents are of great interest to all
Americans.
A committee of the American
exhibitors at the late Exposition
at Paris requested Mr.. McCor-
mick to name day for a comp1i-
mentary dinner and the presen-
tation of two works of art, ten
dered by them. The Goth of
November was appointed, and
the grand banquet hall of the
Centennial Hotel, known as the
" Sale DIES Fetes." was selected
as the locus, and was profusely
and appropriately decorated with
French and American flags.
About one hundred gentlemen
gave and responded to numerous
toasts, which we regret want of
space does not allow us to insert.
Though, as a matter of course.
these and the speeches were COM
pllmentary to the recipient, there
runs through them all current
OF truth and sincere appreciation
of Nc. McCormick's services that
is gratifying to all Americans,
whom he thus universally rep
resented, and particularly to resi-.
dents of Arizona, from which
Territory honors, absence land
we trust emolluments) have not
weaned the loyalty of our
Governor, for he still halls from
Arizona.
We give one extract from Mr..
McCormick's reply when his
health was toasted:
"To have been chosen as the
chief representative of my coun-
trymen at an International Ex-
hibition is no ordinary honor.
To have succeeded in pleasing
them in position so difficult and
responsible, is to have obtained
the highest possible reward for
my exertions."
Mr.. M. A. Caubert, Of Pfris
said: "There can be no SYM
pathy for a Frenchman more
precious than that which comes
from the blessed land of Indepen-
dence. The exhibition of 1878 has
confirmed the verdict of your
splendid Centennial of 1876 at
Philadelphia. 1t has proved once
more-urbi ct orbi-What the
genius of great people, within
one century, can accomplish when
it has for aHXliares labor, liberty,
free-schools for all classes. More
than any other, does your wonder
full country seem to conform itself
to the designs of Providence, for
every year it devotes the largest
part of its resources to maintain
schools, that is to say, to render
humanity more perfect. Whilst,
in the Old World, we still devote
the bulk of our resources to the
casting of cannon, and the ina
provement of arms and engines
of destruction"
Letters of regret were read
from Gen. Grant, Sir P Cunliffe
Owen and the Minister Of Agri-
culture and Commerce of France.
The Chairman of the Commit
tee of American Exhibitors con-
Guided his congratulatory address
thus:

This case was before this court at the

volume Of decisions, page 400. At that
time, the whole case was fully considered,
and as was then supposed, finally decided.
i Dakota reports. page 403.1
By the statement of counsel, at the argu.
ment on the former. occasion, as to . written
stipulation to be filed, but not then present.
ed, the court was led to understand that the
case was presented 10 us in such q way, as
to have the question of the defendants liza.
bility determined on demurrer. The opin.
ion Of the court BY Mr.. Justice Bennett,
evidently proceeded upon that supposition.
But it seems from the stipulation eince
filed, as we'll as from the record now brought
here, that We we're led into a mistake or a
Misrepresentation T; and that the case was moi
then in such regular form ~ to have it de.
cided on demurrer. 1t now appears tina
there was nothing stipulated tending TOWARD
the equivalent of final judgment ; and thai
such judgment was not entered until aftel
the case was remanded Il the distric
court.
So far as the merits of the controversy
were then discussed, or now appear befor,
US, We see no reason to change our former
views; and We now adopt and r~siterat,
them, deprecating, however, the mistake v,
were led into in considering the case at all
until a regular final judgment.
1t follows that the judgment of the distric
court must be affirmed; and it is
So oRDERED
