Tin- New Mexican Loan.
The San Francisco correspondent of the
New York Herald, undef date of Ctk July,
says:
The agent of the liberal Juarez govern
ment in Mexico, in the Pacific States (Gen.
Gasper Sanchez Ochoa,) aided by the Mexi
can Consul, Senor Don Jose A. Godoy, is
nus hi D g on the new Mexican ten per cent
can with commendable energy, and spite ot
all the obstacles in his way is meeting with
considerable success. The bonds, which
ihe secured by pledge of half the receipts ot
are customs for the States of Sonora. Sinaloa,
Colima. Ac., the sales of the public lands
and the rents of the mines, are now being
delivered to the subscribers at fifty cents
unmi the dollar. About *IOO,OOO have been
delivered up to this date, and as soon as the
smaller denominations, say silty, and one
hundred dollars each, are ready lor issue a
much larger amount will be taken. In spite
ot all the mismanagement of Gen. Ochoa's
predecessor, Gen. Vega, and the difficulties
n e has to contend with, so strong is the feel
ing here in tavor of the liberals that a con
siderable sum is likely to be obtained by the
sale of these bonds. One gentleman, repre
senting a large baukiug house, ottered to
take *''oo,ooo at forty cents in gold, which
was declined, as the rate which had been
fixed was fifty cents; considerably more
was realized, in fact, by our own govern
ment for its securities during a considerable
period of the war. Such tacts speak volumes
lor the confidence felt by' the people of the
Pacific States in the ultimate triumph of
republicanism in Mexico, and their sympa
thies with the literals in their unequal con
test with the invaders.
MAXIMILIAN’S CONSUL.
The Imperial (Maximilian's) consul is not
recognized by anybody in office or otherwise,
and his position' may well be called a sine
cure.
' ARMS PURCHASED BY GEN. VEOA.
The large assortment ot arms purchased by
Gen Vega, in this city, last year and seized
by our Provost Marshal at Half Moon Bay,
still gives trouble to our government. They
liavt* been released from the United States
Arsenal at Benicia, whither they were seut
for security by our military authorities, and
permission given lor their shipment to Mexi
co- but after being brought here last week tor
shipment, they were oriiwed back-to Benicia
to be delivered up to the Sheriff of Solano
county, who has an attachment for them is
sued at the instance of parties who hold
Vega’s acceptances for some thousands ot
dollars given in part payment for the pur-v
chase money. Vega is still here endeavoring
to raise money enough to release the arms,
of which there are about thirty thousand
stands, mostly of fair quality, and get them
shipped into Mexico. When this is accom
plished, if ever, he will return to Mexico, as
lie lias been removed by Juarez ana super
seded by General-Ochoa, who holds the po
sition of commander of the liberal forces in
the Western Slates of Mexico, and is really
a brave, energetic and efficient officer. The
following is tile latest reliable :
MEXICAN NEWS. ,
The Mexican Consul, Sir Godoy, received
to-day a decree issued at Chihuahua by the
President of the Republic, on the 11th ot
May last, declaring null aud void the decree
of the 2Gth of February, and the regulations
of the 9tli of March, issued by the usurper
Maximilian, in relation to the revision ot the
operations of seculaiization and redemption
ot uatiouul property,on the grounds that the
latter has no legitimate authority.
The decree of the President alluded to is
accompanied by a circular from the Secietary
of the Treasury, Sr. Yglerias, wherein is ex
pounded the foundation of said decree.
There was, at this date, no rumor ot any
French invasion of the Slate of Chihuahua.
The republican government was taking every
available means of defense.
News of the capture of Richmond and the
surrender of the rebel armies had been re
ceived with intense satisfaction by the liberal
government and celebrated with great en
thusiasm. . ,
In the State of Michoacan there is only a
small French force, which will probably
abandon the whole State soon, as it is nearly
all occupied by different liberal forces.
THE SALVADOR FIRATES CONVICTED.
The military commission called by
McDowell to try the rebel pirates who at
tempted to seize the steamship Salvador, in
the bay ot Panama, made short work of it,
and their finding meets the enthusiastic ap
proval of the whole people of San Francis

Bulled Alive.
A Coal Mine Flooded, and Four Men Im
prisoned in an Excavation—Battle with Ruts—
A Faithful I>"9 the Means of Saviny Life
The Rescue, <5 c.
[From tlie Mahoning (Ohio) Register. ]
Durine the severe rain storm of Friday
night, the 21st instant, the stream of water
that runs by the entrance of the Mahoning
Coal Mine, in Hubbard township, over
flowed its banks and poured a deluge down
one of the slopes by which the mine is
entered Four men were at woik mthe
mine at tlie time, John Turriff, J hos; Bowen,
Jacob Miller and Thomas Miller. The s ope
where the water entered is the lowest place
in the mine, so when they were apprised ot
dancer the avenue of escape was cut oil.
It was near midnight when the state of
affairs was discovered on the surface, lhe
alarm was given; the flow of water into the
mine waß slopped, and the pumps were got
to work. It was found that an immense
volume of w ater had already poured down
the slope, but from the fact that two of the
men were known to be in the highest part of
the mine, it was hoped they were still alive.
On Saturday the work wag begun of drilling a
hole through the'vock, a distance of fifty-six
feet, to the place where Turrill and Bowen
were supposed TO be. Great crowds of anx
ious people congregated from the neighbor
ing country. On Sunday noon the shaft
reached the interior ot the mine, but there
were no signs of the men until Mouday
when a Viice called up the shaft, “Who's
there?" It was found thatTurnll and Bowen
were alive, hut knew nothing of their two
comrades. Conversation could be casilv
ried on with them, and pieces ot food and
small bottles of brandy were lowered through
the narrow apperture. They stated that as
as they saw the flood coming in they
endeavored to join their' companions, but
were unable to do so, the water coming UP
to their necks in that fmrt of the mine. They
Lard distinctly the sound of drilling on
{Saturday, and mined through a column to
reach the place where the drill came through.
Such quantities of water came through the
drill-hole that they corked it up, feaiiug
that it would drown them, but on Monday
the flow ot water ceasing, they made thein
aelves known.
A gentleman who left the mine on Tues
day evening informs us that the water was
lowering rapidly, and it was expected that
an entrance could be effected by Wednesday.
There was no sews of the two. missing
miners. The drill-hole struck on Tuesday
to reach them struck a pillar, and was there
fore of no use.
[From the Mahoning Courier, Aug. 2.]
On Wednesday' evening last, about half
past four o'clock, the water being ‘deemed
sufficiently low in the mine, it was entered
by several miners who made their way,
through water almost up to their necks, to
the room where the two men, Turrill and
Bowen were, at the drill-hole. They were
then conducted to the mouth of the pit and
one of them was strong enough to walk out
alone. Attention was then turned to the
brothers Miller, and several attempts were
made to reach them, but without success. It
was the prevaliug opinion that they were
dead, and this led some that had been work
ing faithfully to give up hopes of their re
covery’ alive, and consequently, efforts in be
half of the unfortunate men began to abate.
However, about 11 o'clock an engine with
several cars arrived from Youngstown, and a
couple of railroad men, Mr. James Murray,
foreman of the railroad yard and
the conductor of the Hubbard Branch
Railroad, Mr. H. Burnet, resolved on find
ing them, dead or alive. In company with a
lad as guide, who, when the flood came info
the mire, was driving a mule team, cut the
traces, and escaped with them, they entered
and were soon making their way, neck-deep
in water, dragging a small boat, made for
the purpose, alter them. Their progress was
slow, but in time they reached a very nar
row place through which they must pass.
The two men found they could not carry,
alone, fire unfortunate Millers through this
place without assistance. Returning to the
surface, they received reinforcements, but on
reaching the same place it looked so dismal
all but two backed out, Again more men
were called to their assistance, this time with
better success. Ropes had been provided,
aud one man taking one end of *it look the
lead, the others following at the distance of
two or three yards, in single file. In this
wgy they reached the room in which the
men were supposed to be, and were rejoiced
to hear the barking of a dog that was known
to be with them. The men were found alive
in a sitting posture, the water up to their
waists, almost completely benumbed, and
scarcely’ able to speak, Afraid too suddenly
to expose them to the fresh air, they were
placed in the boat, taken to a higher room,
wrapped in blankets, and retained there
about an hour, when they were brought out,
after being in that terrible room for five days
and six nights. It was now daybreak, nearly
four o'clock, aud the men being cared for,
the excited company left for home. How
the men kept themselves alive was learned
as soon as they sufficiently recovered to
speak. It appears that the men who were
first released got through their work and
started to come out, but. surprised to soon
find themselves in water,"continued, suspect
ing something went wrong; they waded till
they could see the water almost touch the
roof, and here they turned to go back. Tt|e
room where the Millers were -working was
low, the water rushing in compelled them to
retreat; but before so doing, they made an
effort to escape. At this time the four men
were approaching at right angles, could hear
each other wading in the water and inter
changed a few words. Finding all retreat
cut off each party retired higher up, each
supposing the others were dead. The Mill
ers went to the room where they were found;
the water rising even there within about
three inches of the ronf, compelling them to
throw’ their heads back to keep their faces
out of *ater. Their position will be under
stood when we state that the ceiling was but
four aud a half feet from the floor. Both
tnefi slept alternately, and waked the other
by vigorous shaking, until the water fell suf
ficiently to allow them to sit dow’n. The
men are now last recovering, and some of
them are able by this time to resume their
business.
[From the Cleveland Leader, July 29.]
If seems that after Turrill and Bowen
wfie rescued on Wednesday night, a boat
was rowed into the mine in search of the
two Millers. They were both insensible
from hunger and cold, and were lying in an
excavation above the reach of the water.
They would not have been discovered in the
dense darkness had it not been for a faithful
dog who kept watch over them, and who,
we are informed, seized hold of the coat of
one of the men in the boat, thus drawing his
attention to his master. This dog had also
saved Vie lives of his charge by keeping off a
horde of rats which had been driven by the
rising water to that part of the mine, and
which, being ravenous with hunger, would
have devoured the trfro menois they lay in
sensible, had it not been for the faithful care
of tlitir guardian. _

TKICKEKY OF SPIRIT! ALIS.II
EXPOSED.
[From the New Yolk Daily News.)
The city of Neiv Y'ork is a curious com
pound. Not only are there to be found in it
able champions of every Christian belief,
orthodox, heterodpx, and every other dox,
but every ism that has yet made its appear
ance or gained" adherents, has its disciples
in Gotham—from those who conscientiously
believe that they can gain immortality by
eating Graham bread, to the latest form of
isms, which holds that no man shoifid have
opinions on religious matteis at all. But
the most compounded affair that exists in
the metropolis is the debate which takes
place every Sunday at Metropolitan Hall,
Sixth avenue, near Eighth street, where
Spiritualists, orthodox and atheists, meet on
a common platform, and discuss matters of a
politico-religious nature. Asa matter of
course, in such a motley crowd, where long
hair, maiden ladies, Byron collars and lean
lankiness predominate, the inevitable negro
is bound to have a share (and a very large
share at that); so on yesterday week “ negro
suffrage” was the topic of an exciting dis
cussion, and is to be continued on Wednes
day evening next. Ot the debaters who
take part in these proceedings each one en
tertains his own peculiar ideas, which vary,
to a greater or less extent, from the ideas of
all the otheis, so that, at times, matters get
most beautifully mixed, much to the amuse
ment of that portion of the audience who
are present merely to enjoy the sport.
The debate yesterday was on the question
whether spiritualism w T as a true doctrine, or
whether it was merely a mental hallucina
tion.
The chair was taken at three o'clock by
Col. R. D. Goodwin, who stated that the
time lor opening the discussion had arrived.
The question under consideration had, he
said, been debated for over a month. The
attendants were divided in opinion, on the
ground, probably, that
“ A man convinced against tils w ill
Is ot the same opinion still."
The principle on whirl* this discussion was
conducted was that there should he perfect
freedom in the expression of opinion, provided
personalities were avoided. He then intro
duced, as the first speaker, Professor Malli
son, who would take ground in opposition
to spiritualism—time limited to halt an hour.
now PROF. MATTISON CAUOHT TIIE SPIRITS.
The Professor said he had had experience in
spiritualism,- and believed it to be a sbam ;
be would, however, state only what he had
seen. He had on divers occasions caught
these pretended spirits himself. They proved
to be wires, springs, cords, etc., so manipu
lated as to deceive the unwary. Let some me
dium come forth and call up the spirits, and give
him (the speaker) a fair chance to investi
gate the tnanil'estasicus, and he would find
the spirit and show up the trick, whether
the manifestations were of the writing,
rapping or tipping order, he cared not. You
can’t, continued he, make something out ot
nothing, that’s evident : now when a spirit
would come forward and take a bodily form,
assume a palpable shape, then he would be
lieve in the theory, and not till then. He
believed that these manifestations were
nothing but tricks, aud he had often proved
them so. He had hoard a piano played
pretendedly by spirits ; but be subseauejitly
fonnd out that it was a trick ; the medium
had a confederate who manipulated wires
extending from the keys of the instrument
down into a lower room, l'he Professor said
that when the Tabernacle in Troy was
purchased by Jerry Hicks (this was the
spiritual meeting room in that city,) Mr
Hicks took him to the building, which was
being torn down, and showed him the wires
and other paraphernalia, by means of which
the manifestations were made. Senator
Howard, ot Michigan, was here about five
years ago, and was invited to a spiritual
circle, where a pretended manifestation was
made him from his deceased sister. An
obituary of the lady had been published, and
the medium had been previously “posted”
therefrom, but she made a great mistake in
one respect. Miss Howard was, at the time
of her death, Mrs. Mary P. Cutler, yet the
medium kept speaking of her as Miss How
ard. This was at a circle in Bond street.
The speaker once attended a circle where
the medium pretended to give him a revela
tion from his deceased wife, hut could an
swer no questions concerning her that her
confederate had not learned a few days be
fore in personal conversation with him.
Once he found a spiritualistic boot, the heel
of which contained hidden apparatus for
producing “raps.” This, with many other
like apparatuses which he had discovered,
he loaned to a man who professed a great
desire to “show up” the spiritualistic delu
sion ; but the rascal no sooner got posses
sion of them than he started out West as a
lecturer on spiritualism, and made money by
it. One time he determined to find out how
a table was being tipped ; he made a grab
at the wire by which the tipping was pro
duced, but the confederate drew it away too
sudden!)’, and his (the speaker’s) hand was
badly cut in consequence.
The Professor closed by insisting that all
the pretended manifestations were tricks,
and he would prove them so, whenever an
opportunity was offered him. He produced
three or four articles of wire and wood that
he had “captured” while manifestations were
being made, and explained the mode in
which they were operated.
DR LEWIS GETS A MANIFESTATION.
A Dr. Lewis (Spiritualist) from Bergen, N.
Jersey, now took the platlonn. He appeared
to be very anxious to demolish the Professor's
argument, and in order to do it he related
soinc incidents which, in common parlance,
are “wonderful if true.” Once he was at a
circle where one hundred and fifty spirits
were present. Among them were George
Washington and Geueral Andrew Jackson.
When the manifestations had proceeded for
a short time, he got a communication from
“Old Hickory” requesting him to whistle
“Yankee Doodle.” The Doctor was’nt much
of a whistler, hut as the old hero was deter
mined to be obeyed when in the flesh, he
thought it best to try, and accordingly be
puckered up aud gave the spirit the best music
he was capable of. The table then began to
move, keeping time to his whistle, until finally
it rgared up and rested one leg in a manuer
equal to anything ever done by a circus postu
rer,the medium holding it in this position some
time merely by resting the tip of her finger
upon it. His own heavy dining table (and
that he knew was an honest one) had often
tipped and rapped out questions when a
young girl, a visitor ftt his house, was acting
as a medium. Last winter he received
through this young medium and the table a
communication. “Did Ellen leave a message
for me ?” He asked the spirit to identify it
self and it proved to be an old lady, Mrs.
Hinchman, who, Alien enveloped in mortal
flesh was a strong disbeliever. “Ellen’ was
the servant girl in the bouse where Mrs. H.
died, and she (Mrs. H.) had told her to call
on the speaker's family and “give her love
to all.” He didn't understand it at first, but
Ellen’s subsequent arrival made all clear.—
Afterwards he held a conversation with the
spirit of old Mrs. Hinchman. Among the
questions he put was “Where are you now ?"
She informed him that in consequence of her
disbelief while in the flesh she had to keep
ou learning in the spirit world, aud had not
as vet progressed to the higher planes, but
as near as'she could guess she was domiciled
right over Bergen ! She also informed him
that she could no*’ travel without expense,
an idea with which she seemed highly de
lighted, for, said Dr. Lewis, she was u very
stingy woman when on earth. The argu
ments of Prof. Mattison he did not think
worttiy of notice.
AN INFIDEL GIVES 111S VIEWS.
Mr. Clark then took the stand. He was
not a believer in Christianity, he said, but he
was an opponent of spiritualism. He did
not see why there should be auy discussion
between Christians and Spiritualists at all.
If he could bring himself to believe Chris
tianity, he could easily believe in spiritual
communication. But jie never could put
faith in it, for the reason that he was not
convinced of the existence of any spiritual
essence apart from physical being. The
speaker then went into an elaborate argu
ment to prove the non-existence of a soul,
combatting the doctrine received among
Christians; and held to the belief that death
was not the separation of two distinct beings,
spiritual and physical, hut the disorganiza
tion of matter merely.
DR. ROBINSON FEB CONTRA.
Dr. Robinson said he merely wished to
destroy the atheistic poison the gentleman
had disseminated, or to send out an antidote
with it. He spoke for fifteen minutes in
favor of the Christian teaching; and said
that although he did not firmly believe all
that was claimed for spiritualism, he would
rather take it as a whole than plunge himself
into the dark sea of infidelity in which the
last speaker fouud himself.
THE “IRISH APPRENTICE” ON ORTHODOXY.
Mr. Lambert, familiarly known* as the
“Irish Apprentice,” spoke in favor of Ortho
doxy. lie had seen aud sounded the cheats
of spiritualism. Some years ago he favored
that doctrine, but after hearing the lectures
of the Rev. Prof. Mattison of this city in op
position to it, h%had changed his opinion.—
lfe had asked the best test medium iu the
city, Mrs. French, now present, to tell him
the name of his deceased mother, and she re
fused, because she could not do otherwise
without exposing the sham. When she
could do that lie would believe.
Mrs. E. T. French, rising : Mr. Chairman,
I never saw that young man before.
Mr. Lambert: I asked you, madam, three
years ago in the Bowery.
He went on to denounce spiritualism as a
delusion. A gentleman had said that the
spirits of General Washington aud General
Jackson were present at his circle. God of
our lathers and mothers! w’ere they not in
terested in something better than whistling
Yankee Doodle ?
Dr. Lewis : They used to like it.
Mr. Lambert —So Ido like it; but I don’t
think much of it comes from New Jersey.
Mr. Lambert then went on to say that spirit
ualism might have proved itself true during
the late war; it might have prevented the
second crucifixion (referring to President
Lincoln s assassination) and saved the nation
from the effects of rebellion if it had com
munication with the spirits. He concluded
by challenging any one to meet him in public
and discuss the respective merits of Chris
tianity and spiritualism.
MRS. FRENCH ATTACKS THE REV. PROFESSOR
MATTISON.
Mrs. E. T. French then took the stand.
She had not intended to say anything, and
would not now take the platform only her
name had been mentioned. She then vigor
ously attacked the Rev. Professor Mattisou’s
book entitled “Spiritualism Unveiled.” It
was filled, slie said, with obscenity and lies.
It that book she had been called a prostitute
from girlhood; but she had Ynade the Rev.
Prolessor, who was a hypocritical Christian,
take that back. She brought letters from the
Mayors ot Harrisbuig and Alleghany City,
Penn., and from Bishop Simpson of the pro
lessor’s own church, who had known tier
from youth, giving the lie to the Professor’s
assertions. When she met him, she, in com
pany with her husband, fastened the lie upon
him, and this Rev. Professor was glad to
escape from her, making his exit through a
window. Subsequently she received a letter
from him offeriug to omit the objectionable
passages in a subsequent edition of his work.
She had her documents and her witnesses
now, and could show them if called upon.
She closed by speaking in a feeling manner
of the delight experienced by all true believ
ers in spiritualism.
A SCENE.
Several others took part in the discussion
among whom was an elderly Scotchman,
who, without taking either side of the ques
tion, insisted on reading long quotations
from the Bible. The audience demurred—
there was nothing pertinent to the question.
Several gentlemen rose and insisted that the
reader should leave the stand.
The Chairman : He has only six minutes
more ; let hint go on.
The old gentleman continued reading un
til the chairman rapped “lime,” when being
cut short in a passage from Job he descen
ded from the stand, while the deep voice of
a sailor-looking man in the auciience'Sang
out, “Now, go and sin no more,” which cre
ated uproarious laughter.
FINALE.
A woman who would not give her name,
sayiug she was a stranger, then enjoined on
the audience the necessity of going back
into myriads of ages past and “learning the
alphabet of God, ’ and becoming acquainted
with His “programme,” shortly after wliich
the audience retired.
