SAVANNAH NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, SATURDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 16. 1865. Jj SATUBWAY For Ship Nbwb and Commercial see Fonfth Page. OH » MEXICO. Onr readers were informed in our issue of the 13th that a resolution had been of fered in the Senate of the United Btates taking a decided stand against the mon archical designs on Mexico, and instruct ing the Committee on Foreign Affairs as to what measures are deemed imperative to countemct them and guarantee to the Mexican people their rights to a republi can form of government. Simultaneously with this another reso lution was introduced calling on the FresiJent for di the information in his possession relative to the occupation of that country by the French. Little is to be gleaned from these facts as to the .temper of Congress. They aig- nifv nothing more than an intention to bring the subject up for consideration at the earliest practicable moment. Upon th e question of armed interference by Buy European power with the govern mental affairs of this continent, except where their authority is established, as in the ease of Canada, there is very little conflict of opinion among the people of the United States. They are as a unit against it, and would be pleased to have them relinquish all claim to territory on this side of the wafer. On this we all agree, though dif fering widely as to what shall be deemed » good and sufficient cause for resorting to more than an expression of displeasure to enforce the propriety of our views, and deter those who may be inclined to tike undue advantage of the condition of our sister Republics, and compel them to accept a form of government which does not meet the approval of a majority of their people. The United States is not pledged to become the champion of republican institutions under any and all circumstances, notwithstanding her avow ed policy to foster them as best she can. She has not taken upon herself the re sponsibilities of knight errantry in be- Lalf of freedom the world over, and cer tainly is indisposed to assume them now, when there is every reason to believe that her internal affairs will demand her ex clusive attention for some time to come. Even if the word of the nation had been passed to that effect, it would have carried with it the proviso that 6elf interest was not to be entirely ne glected, and we could not be expected, in any view of the case, to rashly jeopar dize our national existence. It would be unreasonable to ask it of us, and certain ly stretch the obligations of friendship to an unparalleled degree. All that we are in honor compelled to do will be done in the face of all risks—but our situation renders it impolitic in us to make free, will offerings. The only question now is whether France, by sending troops to Me xic-o, has been guilty of conduct which may not be expiated by their being withdrawn at an early date. We hazard nothing in >sj>ressing the belief that this would be as much as our Gov eminent would ask, and judging from the lest information to be had, it is most likely to take place. The policy of Napoleon • in regard to Mexican affairs, has never been looked upon with any degree of favor by the French, people, and there is now, as there always has been, a strong party jn opposition to it. The scheme for the propagation of imperialism originated at Vtimffi when it pleased the aristocrats in alforeign eountr ies to receive the sim- ple'act that we were engaged in a civil . war as satisfactory proof of the ineffi ciency of republicanism. The wily monarch evidently believed in the representations of this class, and looking toon the wished for disintegra tion of th. United States as an accom plished fan, was induced to undertake what he m\gt now admit to be one of '•the greatest mistakes of his life. The opinion is nflversally accredited that at the opening tf the next “Corps Legis late he will r&terate the assurances given last year, that the French troops will be recalled froA -Mexico as soon as possible, and in deferent to the demands of a large and growing party who are now clamorous for reform with economy for their watchword, he cannot long withhold the actual fulfillment of his promise. By the light of these facts, onr duty is plain. Threats of expulsion at this juncture of affairs wquld be very untimely. When we resort to them we close •very avenue of escape, and the honor of France being at stake, we would strength en the hands of the Emperor by uniting ali parties against ns, and there would be f° alternative but to leave the settlement to the dread issue of war. It is but a ama.l sacrifice to make for peace, and will reflect no discredit on a people whose reputation for heroic valor commands the respect of every nation. Deprived of the support of French bayonets, Maximilian will be left * H to stand upon, and we doubt whether he would re- the country long enough to test tue truthfulness of fain M^rtio^ hi : P m regard to the attachment he professes to have awakened in the hearts of a great majority of the Mexican people. The bubble would burst with the. slightest punetnrer»n*l the world would soon be called on to witness the epd of monarchy In tin land of the ,Xontezuemas. We hkveoot adverted to- the injury which our interference at present might work to Juarez and his cause, tyit we have shown sufficient reason why we should seek to maintain our present attitude unchanged until the de nouement has reached that stage when it is made to appear that there is a deter mination to deal unfairly with us and disregard the doctrine which is so firmly fixed in th<5 minds of the American peo pie. We would forgot the past, hut ask good security for the future. A Present- were yesterday made the happy re- <Spient of an elegant editorial chair from a few of our New York friends, who have been kind enough to present us with this sensible and useful gift as a tangible ex pression of their regard %pd appreciation of our services in publishing a fearless and independent loyal journal. . To say that we axe truly grateful to the generous donors for this appropriate souvenir of their esteem and warm friend ship, is but feebly expressing our grati tude. We accept it, return our sincere thanks, and shall cherish this chair until time has worn its last shred from the sumptuous cushion, and the monarch of decay has stolen the last splinter of its rich and tasty frame. JJe kind enough, gentlemen, to excuse us fron^making a speech on this occasion, and we know that the same generous spirit that prompted the token will likewise relieve us from any lengthy dissertation upon chairs, editorial, reportorial, ton orial, balmorial, or any other kind of orial. We shall sit easier hereafter, and as we recline in the arms of your sumptuous and inviting chair, anathematizing our d—1 or waiting for proof, rest assured we shall be able to furnish clearer copy, indite ele gant items, write about sumptuous ar rangements of all kinds, dilate and en large upon the beauties of friendship : “ Friendship's a name to few confined, The offspring of a generous mind ; A genial warmth that fills the breast, And better felt than e’er express’d.” We should indeed be ungrateful did we not acknowledge our indebtedness to Purser Richardson, of the Nevada, for the careful manner in which he trans ported the rather unwieldy and bulky ar ticle from New York to this city. The Purser is as modest as courteous, but he will excuse us for corroborating the uni versal opinion of those who cross the ocean in the steamship Nevada—and that is, that a more accomplished gentleman was never installed in a Purser’s berth than Purser Richardson. Formation of a New Congregational Church. The Rev. J. E. Roy, a representative of the American Home Missionary Society in New York, has been in this city for the last week with a view of looking up the scattered con • gregationai material, and, if the way should be cleer, ofinitiating a church enterprise here. We learn that he has found quite a number of the people of that persuasion, who hart no Church Society for their accommodation, and that a paper has been signed by thirty bohioess men who agree to give 61 their influence and means for the support ol such a movement, while many others have expressed their interest in it and have promised aid. The Fireman’s Hall, on South Broad street, has been secured as a tem porary place of worship, (the Hall is still to be used a part of the day by the Disciples’ Church) until a permanent church edifice shall be pro cured. An able minister will be sent out as soon as may be, by the Society, which will supplement the Balary, while the American Congregational Union, of Boston, will aid in buildiDg or purchas- '' " ol -TRIAL OF AARON A.

This trial by Military Commffcon reached g conclusion to-da* The only public expecta tion in immediate connection with it now re maining tofie gratified is the promulgation ofjfc the final decision—when, however, that will rpgj. TOWN AGAIN PLACED UNDER be officially announced, is a somewhat proble matical matter, but doubtless within a week Upon the repo#of the Court being completed it will be immediately forwarded to Brevet Major General J. M. Brannan, commanding the*Dis- trict of Savannah, for his approval dr otherwise of the findings of the Commission in an order to that effect, and who will afterwards transmit the report, together with a copy of his order, to the Judge Advocate General at Washington. The accused, who daring the continuance of the trial had not only conducted himself in a generally unexceptionable manner personally, but had also displayed considerable tact and shrewdness in managing his own defence, ex hibited in Court to-day an obvions anxiety in reference to bis ultimate fate, and was evidenfly dissatisfied with himself and the unpleasant circumstances surrounding him. Having daily published in extenso all the proceedings in the case, we furnish this morn ing the last instalment in the shape of the sum ming up of the accused The Court assembled at 10 o’clock—a fell attendance of the different officers composing it being present—when the following defence in the handwriting of the accused, and which we give verbatim et literatim, was offered by him, and wa3 read by the Judge Advocate to the Court. The Judge Advocate, in behalf of the prosecution, submitted the esse without re mark : May it Please the Court. The testimony in this Case is So Clear and full, that all the Argument that I can make, cannot render it more obvious, The Disorder charged in the Complaint, has Not been proved, Nor that the Deffcndant advised the people to take the pro perty of their Former owners; Nor to Disobey any Orders from Gen'l Howard and Other Go vernment officers ; Nor has it been proved that he advised the people to hold the lands against the orders of Genl Howard ; nor did he advise them Not to make Contracts. A. L. Stanford and H. Mobly testifies that Defendant said the President ’ was Drunk. This is contradicted By the Rev. Dr. Cox and by James R. Wallace, A. Burke, Jss. Porter, Mr. Johnson, F. J. Keating, Jas. R. Mason, Isaac Sheffiall, K. S. Thomas, P. M. Teomer, who also contradicts the Government witnesses n all all the charges set forth in the first Court. Isaac W. Brinkerhofi 1 and A. S. Stanford Testifies that Defendant said: how can you steal't all that has been raised in the last few years lias been cultivated and produced by you! you cam steal, because there is nobody to steal from. On this part of the case there is a con flict of evidence, and the Defendant must have the benefit of the Dowbt, (doubt). Again, let us look at it in another light, all the col’d peo pie in Geo. were set Free by an Act of Con gress, July 17th, 1862, cliapt. 195, sec. 2d, and if free, they were entitled to all they produced During the time their former Owners were in Arms against the United States. Now, if this Argument is Correct, then each Freedman is legally entitled To Pay for all the labour done since they were discharged Free by Congress, And have A Right to sue in the U. S. Courts For the same. Now then, if this latter argn ment is correct, they hold a Lien on the lands, and should be Paid before Discharged, all though tho legal title May be restored to the Former Owners.

Within the last ten days our oity has been rife with the most alarming rumors of bloody insurrections in the interior of San Domingo, strife at Thomasville and other points, but we havd generally re frained from publishing these reports on account of the vague and unreliable manner in which they were repeated to us. The air has seemingly been preg nant with sensation rumors of conflict between the whites and blacks, but the only positive information we have yet received, are the following facts of the Thomasville entente, received from res ponsible gentlemen who were present during the troubles. No Insurrection. We are glad to state that there is not the slightest foundation for the silly re ports of insubordination* among the Freedmen, so that our timid readers, who lay their uneasy heads upon their pillows at night expecting to hear the woeful tidings of all the accumulated horrors of negro insurrections, can at once recover their mental equilibrium, sleep soundly, and enjoy'the most refreshing repose. On the night of the 29th of November the community at Thomasville were sud denly startled and somewhat excited by the arrest of Gazaway Lamar, jr., by U. 8 Detective Leemau Bunnell, acting un der special instructions from the General Commanding this District. As the news spread through the town of the arrest of Mr. Lamar, all sorts of reasons were as signed for the mysterious movement, al though it was generally supposed that the arrest had its origin in the great cotton scrape in which so many prominent par ties are implicated. Where the Mischief Hegun. Shortly after the arrest of Mr. Lamar, while an unarmed Orderly of the lOiid U. S. C. T. was on his way to Col. Bogart’s Headquarters, he was suddenly assailed by three armed men, one of whom suc ceeded in stabbing the soldier iu the back, inflicting a severe but not danger ous wound.

By a resolution of the National Council of Congregational Churches, held in Boston last Jane, a simultaneous collec- iection is to be taken in all the three thousand churches of this order, for the purpose of raising two hundred thousand dollars to aid id erecting Chnreh Edifices at the West and the South. This collection is to occur on the next Lord’s Day or Foie Fathers’ Sabbath, the anniversary of the Landing of the Pilgrims on Plymouth Rock, If such a church is established here, it will, oi coarse* be earnestly loyal and liberty loving ; it will tend to attract to our city men of this faith aDd policy, who, with capital and enterprise, are contemplating a settlement in the South ; it will gather into a society the people who aro now not associatqA anywhere, and so increase the re ligious influence of the city. We learn that this American Home Missionary Society, in the forty years of its existance, has raised four and a halt millions of dollars, and has used the same in tbe p'anting and culture of more than two thousand churches, most of which have now become self-supporting. Its Secreta ries in New York are Revs. M. Badger, D. D ; D. B. Coe, D. D., and A. H. Clapp; and tbe Treasur er, Christopher R.

General Butler’s Resignation. 'Die Philadelphia Telegraph states that the resignation of Benjamin F. Butler, as a Ma jor General of the United States service, has been promptly accepted by the War Depart ment, and adds: ‘-This -is significant, as showing the bitterness of feeling which is growing up between the Radicals and the Conservativesat Washington. General But ler tendered his resignation some time sinee, or as soon as he heard that Lient. Gen. Grant was abontto give him a scoring in his official report. The matter was laid over, and -noth ing more was said about it until a few^iavs since, when General Butler was called to Washington for a conference with the Presi dent. Sequel: General Botler was not satis fied ; the conference was not a' happy one to him. He looked op his old rarigoation, and had it aoceptod before fee time came when its acceptance might appear creditable to him Consequence: General Bailee will now be a bltW opponent of fee Administration."
