arose from any interruption of communication
with RID de Janeiro,. whereby enc date was acct
dentally substituted for another, as delayed dis

Our Mexican Visitor.

Gen. Diaz, Ex- President of Mexico
is a heavy set, swarthy man, seeming
ly not over forty years of age, though
he must be at least sixty. He doe
not speak word of English but ap-
pears to take the greatest interest il
all of his surroundings in this coun
try. AS soldier, statesman and die,
tator he will occupy an important
place in the history of his country
but one cannot while looking upon
his strong lined and intellectual fea-
lures forget that terrible scene, just
as the dawn was reddening, when the
chivalric Maxamillion, the intrepid
and devout Miramon and the able,
high-spirited, energetic and progress
sive Mejia were, while prisoners of
war, marched out ana ShOt 10 death
with musketry. As he stood laugh
ing and chatting gaily with his own
beautiful daughter, we could not but
think of the lovely Carlotta, the mad
ex-Empress, happily bercft of reason
by the volley that proclaimed her
wiaowhood,who so:.long and hopefully
and longingly awaited the coming of
the prince who would not abandon
his American friends and adherants
to save his own life, though guaran-
teed safe escort by Marshal Bazine.

reason why William Sprague should
not be elected Governor of Rhode
Island?" There are a number o.
good reasons perceptible to the aver
age man who looks upon the contest
of Rhode Island from a disinteresteC
standpoint. 1t would certainly be 9
good thing on general principles tc
smash the Rhode Island ring. 1t has
ruled too long. Its rule has brought
the little State into bad repute al
over the country. The mention O
an election in Rhode Island is Away.
a suggestion Of corruption and pro
scription. 1t would bo a good thing
in American politics to trample the
life out of the prescription that sets
up real estate qualification for q
part of the voters Of Rhode Island
that permits the son to vote but dis.
franchises the father, for no Other
reason than because he was born in
Europe. The election of Sprague
would be a victory for liberality and
justice over all that is most despica.
