[From the New South, of November 25th.) the ioth of August last, Privates JamcslGripiKO, Cos. F, 101 U. a. C. TANARUS., and Beu Redding of the same regimeut (colored), together with a gaug of colored soldiers, for •iitlv entered and ransacked the house of Mr Mew, near McPhersonville, ravishing the persons of Mrs. E. Mew, Miss Florence Jletv Mrs. Mary E. McTier and Miss Heape, witli’tbe assistance of several ot the gaug pf soldiers who were with them, and stealing everything that was of value. Ben. Redding struck Mrs. Mew with his gun and threatened to take her life. He then attacked, struck aud bound Dr. Wa Q. Huzle and Mr H. C. Morgan, and attempted to kill Dr. H. by thrusting at him with bis bayonet. Redding was also present and as sisted the gang of desperadoes in burn ing Mrs. Heape’s house. As to Grip peu, * the cross-breed, he seems to Live been intent on bis hellish out rages and burglary. These two fiends were soon afiei arrested and finally brought be • lore a General Court Martial, held at Head quarters Department South Carolina, Hilton Head, Oct. 28th, on charges of rape, bur glary aud arson—Major E. C. Culp, Presi dent Uu trial, the Court found them guilty, aud sentenced them to the scaffold. They were then remanded back to jail to wait the execution of their sentence. Grippen was a small individud, well put together, and a nulatto- Redding was a full-blooded Afri can-very black. Before noon, on Monday, quite a number o! little companies of people were seeu com ing into town and banging about the differ ent coiners, patiently waiting tbe hour of execution. When the time arrived there were tome two thousand spectators gathered together, a large majority of whom were col ored people. Everything remained orderly aud quiet throughout the entire time occupied in carrying into effect the execution of these uuiortunate men- All the military were present. At twenty minutes betorc three o'clock, tne condemned men, with their arms securely emerged from the prison, the clergy man on one side, and the jailor ou the other ; two soldiers in front and two in the rear, with the officer in advance. At this moment tne baud oi the 6th infantry struck up the “Dead M ireb,” aud the party moved slowly and solemnly toward the scaffold. Grippen, the youngest of the two, and quite an intel ligent look'mg youth, stepped forward tirmlv; lire other, Reiidiug, was so weak, from ner vous excitement, that two soldiers were ob liged to support him. Ejaculations for mercy fell from the lips of both as they ueared the scaffold. At the foot of the stairs the cortege halted, and, Lieut, Richards, asceuding tbe scaffold first, motioned tbe others to follow Grippen moved up tbe steps without hesftntioti, followed by Redding and his as sistants. The man’s nerves seemed com pletely prostrated—entirely uselesss. The clergyman then proceeded to offer up a prayer, whioh was attentively listened to by both men. He then left the scaffold, and Lieut. Richards, drawing forth a paper, read iu a clear, slow and distinct voice ttio finding of the Court, the sentence, the appoval *f the General commanding, and the orders. Lt. H. M. Jones,Act. Asst. Prov. Marshal, who had been charged with the conduct of the execution, having positively refused to pertorm the duties assigned him, was placed under arrest, and Lt. Chas. F. Richards sub stituted in his place. During the ten minutes which was occu pied in reading the above orders, the feet of the condemned men had been bound se curely together. The officer now asked Grippen it he had any thing to say ; If he bad, he would repeat it for him to the as sembly. He replied that be confessed his guilt, and warned all those present, more particularly the colored troops, aud his own company, which were present, “not to be led away by strange men, but to do right, aud they would not lie wturehe now was.’’ Re also wislied them all good-bye. Red ding. although nearly exhausted, desired the officer to warn all “to be good,” and bid them all “good-bye.” The officer then drew the black caps over their heads and, with oooinqss, adjusted the noose about their necks At this moment Grippen, who had borne up manfully thus Dr, gave signs of nervous triplication, shaking bauds with each, the officer de fends from the scaffold, he gives the signal by dropping his glove ; the trap falls, and Ine two criminals die without a struggle. in halt an hour the surgeons pronounced ate extinct. The bodies were ttien placed m their coffins, and, the burial party taking margo ot them, they were conveyed to ■ 'cir narrow homes in a secluded spot oift •iue the emienchments.

The New A ork papers of Friday contain accounts of a most shocking murder com mitted in Brooklyn on Wednesday night last. The victim was a wealthy Cubau theatrical manager, named Jose Garcia Otero, who came to this country a short time ago on business connected with his prolession. He left his temporary stoppiug place, tbe Barce lona Hotel, in Great Jones street, between six and seven o’clock on Wednesday of last week, in company with a’friend named Jose Gonzales. Senor Otero bad, it is thought, from eight to ten thousand dollars on bis person. It is supposed that after leaving bis botel be was joined by other parties, tbe whole proceeding to Brooklyn, where, at ten o’clock the same evening, Otero was found murdered, but his body was not then cold A dagger aud two razors were found near him, which at first gave rise to the idea that be had committed suicide ; but closer inves tigation revealed the fact that he was brutal ly murdered by one or more persons. Tbe matter was given into the hands of the de tective police, and late yesterday afternoon they arrested a Cubau, named Theodore Mar tinez Bellecer, on board tbe steamship Man hattan, lying at pier No. 4 North river, as she was about to depart for Havana and Vera Cruz. The person of the prisoner was ex amined, when jt was discovered that his hands were cut in several places, as if with a sharp instrument. A pair of gloves, cut and soiled with plood, were also tound, and his clothing was thickly soiled with fresh blood. He was handcuffed and taken to Brooklyn, and was subsequently taken to view the body of the murdered man, when be exhibited great nervousness and shook his head, but said nothing. He is now in close custody awaiting the result of an inquest, which is iu progress. Jose Gonzales, the man with whom Senor Otero left his hotel, had not been found on Saturday, but no efforts are being spared by the authorities to discover him, as well as others on whom suspicion rests. • v St ill Later from Mexico. The steamship Corsica, which arrived at New Y ork Irons Havana on Friday last, brought advices from the city of Mexico to the Btb, and from Vera Cruz to the 13th inst. : “Several additional small victories over the republicans are claimed by the imperialists in the Slates of Oajaca and Michoacan. It is said tli AI the latter has becu nearly cleared of republicans and guerillas, a force of six hun dred of them having, according to the re ports, recently met with a severe defeat there. In the State of Guanajuato, General Guzman and a party under him are reported to have been completely annihilated, which means, we suppose, that those who were made prisoners were immediately shot, iu accordance with Maximilian’s decree. No alluatlou is made to au intention of with drawing the imperial troops from their frontier positions, ol which we have hereto fore had reports, nor is any reference made to the rumored impe.ial evacuation in the Northern Mexican States, it being asserted that in Sonora aud Sinaloa the condition of affairs remain unchanged. It is added that un imperial force, supposed to be intended to operate against the republicans in the latter State, is assembling at Acapulco. The Em press Charlotte left the capital on the Cth iust. on her long projected visit to Yncatan. Ex-Prei ident Zuloago has been exiled by Maximilian’s government, and has arrived at Havana on bis way to France. The ex rebel General Magruder has beeu appointed im perial Surveyor General of Colony Lands.” Accounts of tbe 15th ipst from tbe Rio Grande frontier of Mexico, states that “Gen- Mejia, the imperUlJ commander,' still held Matamoras, and the republican army was encamped wilbin about eight miles, confi dent of soon having possession ot it, as well as of Bagdad, at the mouth of the river.— Mejia had issued orders forbidding any one crossing tbe river to or from Matamoras.— Tbe imperial gunboats and batteries there opened a furious fire on tbe 14tU on some flatboals discovered floating down the stream which were believed to be republican rams, and a Matamoras paper says that during the attack many republicans were killed, wound ed and drowned. Another account, however, states that the supposed infernal fleet was merely a collection of American flatboats loaded with wood, on the way to Brazos. It is said that a swift vessel is to be immediate ly despatched to France for imperial rein forcements.” Washington Items. A Washington despatch of tbe 22d inst. says i Charles Eames, of this city, has been ap pointed by tlie Secretary ot tbe Treasury to examine and report upon all tbe cotton cases now on file in that department. The auditor of the Post Office Department bag issued a circular letter to tbe late South ern postmaster? iu Southern States requiring them to pay up all balances due to the gov ernment prior to tbe breaking out of tbe re bellion wbich they are doing. Twelve thou sand dollars was received a day or two ago from tlie postmaster at Mobile. The foithcomiug report of Commissioner of Internal Revenue will recommend the aboli tion of proprietary revenue stamps, and ail other stamps, except those used for legal documents. The President has authorized instructions to be issued to tbe direct Tax Commissioners in the rebel Stales to postpone all sales of property now advertised until further orders. He says be desires to lay tbe matter before Congress for its action. Ron and Missionaries. —The Boston Trav eller of tbe 21st inst., says “tbe sailing bark Thos. Pope, oi New York, bound for Mon rovia, Africa, cleared at our Custom House this afternoon, having on board seven mis sionaries as passengers, and twenty-nine thousand gallons of New England rum as part of her cargo.” New Eugland has cer tainly done a great deal toward civilizing and christianizing the African race, hut we doubt if much good will result trom tbe ex pedition ot the Thomas Pope. Rum is tbe greatest enemy that religion aud euiighlea meut have to contend_ with. It debases and imbrutes tbe jieople of every civilized na tion, and, as we see from tbeyibove extract, it follows tlie bumble missionary into tbe far-off land of the beatbeu to undo the good work that be may accomplish. The philan thropists of New England should understand that rum is not at all promotlve of “negro elevation,” particularly when the accompa nying proportion of missionaries is so plainly inadequate. If they must seud their famous beveragu to tbe heathen, they should make tbe proportion not less than one missionary to a barrel of rum, and even in that caso we fear the rum would come out ahead.—.V.

While tbe radical papers of tbe North unite in insisting that the ratification of the constitutional amendment abolishing slavery by the States of the South shall be made a condition precedent to their re-admisslon into the Union, there is a difference of opin ion amongst them as to the true force and meaning of the clause of tbe amendment wbich gives to Congress the power “to en force this article from proper legislation." The New Y ork Tribune and other journals of its class claim that this grant of power works a complete revolution in tbe theory and practice of our political Institutions.— Tbe Tribune in an article maintaining this view says : “Tbe Constitutional Amendment aims at tbe absolute, unconditional abolition of slavery throughout the United States ; but it does not slop here. Hitherto the personal liberty aud civil rights ol each citizen were held and eujoyed under the protection of the 'states respectively ; hereafter they are to be upheld and guided by the nation.” At this assumption of power the New Y’ork Post, professing still to adhere to the state rights doctrines of tbe old democractic republican party, stands aghast. In an arti cle vehemently protesting against such a construction of the clause of tbe constitutional amendment above quoted, tbe editor says: “this wesay would be acomplete radical, disastrous overturn of our whole political system, ot everything that is pecu liar to it, that is Valuable in it, that is vital to its success. The originality and eminence of tbe federal system ot government, devised by our fathers after the maturesl and wisest consideration of the subject that had ever been given to it, and after ibe most careful comparison of tbe experiences of all time, consisted in tbe nice balance it maintained between tbe central and local authorities. It discriminated so cautiously between tbe powers that properly belonged to the state, representing a particular and local communi ty, aud the Union, representing all these communities together, that it has been able to function with an unparalleled vigor and harmony. Slavery alone, a hideous excres cence and anomaly, was strangely permitted to continue uutil it tried to destroy their work. But otherwise the system has been admirable in its completeness and beauty. Tbe states with that exception, protected aud defended the civil rights of every individual ; the general government harmonized the States and controlled foreigu relations ; and in tbe happy co-operation of the two, society was led forward with a degree of freedom, prosi erity, general comfort, intelligence and order that has never been approached in the history of civilization. Now, are we to change this symmetrical and beueficeut plam which combines the most diffusive self government with national unity aud strength, for one of the old world plans a hundred times tried aud a hundred times defeated, oi mete national centraliza- tion! But what form of ceutralizaiiou has ever been more complete, more despotic, than that which makes all the personal aud civil rights of a community to depeud upon a single central authority ? Have tbe abso lutists of Europe, from tbe Czar to Louis Napoleon, any other theory of government, or any other purpose, than this? To con centrate power, authority, contt oi, tbe initia tion and the execution of laws in a single source, is despotism, whether that power tie exercised bv a single man, a single class, a single representative assembly, or by a single government of any sort. Indeed, a government of that kind must of necessity be a despotism. The power wbich controls thirty, forty or fifty millions of men, in all the variety and complication of their interests, which attempts to oversee and guard the rights of so immense a multitude*- must necessarily be an energetic, condensed, coherent, arbitrary power. For nothing but force 9f the most decided peremptory kind can regulate so unwieldy a body from a single centre?. Witness the experiments at revolution in France, where, wilbin a cen tury, there have been two dozen different dynasties or systems, all ending in despot ism, because all began in centralism, from wbicli no one ever departed. Should we do better uuder tbe same congestive princi ples and methods ? Not at all; but we should only rush with tbe same fatality to the same fatal # bourne.” If tbe Tribune’s interpretation of the clause is to be received, then certainly the Post and its school of Republicans have got more than they bargained for when they advocated its adoption. The October Gale.— Tbe ship Benjamin Adams, from Beaufort, N. C., for Mobile, was wrecked on Spanish Key, Abaco, on the 23d ult., and of those on board eleven per sons were drowned. The ship Panama, from New York for Galveston, was wrecked on tbe Grand Bahama on the 241 h ult. ; but her officers and crew were rescued. —A Washington letter says both the cham bers of the House and Senate are completely and elaborately prepared foi the session, and it is noticeable that tbe desks made vacant during the past four years by the absence of Southern members, aud wbich were removed during that time from tbe floors of both Houses, are again supplied.
