Newspaper Page Text<£l)f 9?iU City Printer—Official Paper iitRKFsT nn rißmuTioN AUIiUSTA. UA. THURSDAY MOKNINO July 11. 1*67 To City Builuru Hen. Mr. H. L. Gvnlry, travelling agent for the I>a i.r I’rkss, and nlao the Christian Messenger, will wisit every Jamili/ in Columbia, Lincoln, am) Wilke* counties, during the neat two months, and will advocate the interest* of both p*|>era. A favorable oppor tunity is thus presented to advertisers, to extend their notices into the three counties named above. “On to Mexico." Up to the commencement of last month, snys the New Orleans Times, we could get no clear view of the sanguin ary conflict in which the Liberals and Imperialists of Mexico were engaged; the smoke and dust of battle so en veloped the combatants that we could obtain no certain knowledge of the comparative strength of the opposing forces, and consequently had little opportunity of forming an opinion as to the probable result of the struggle. Now, we heard a shout of victory from the Imperialists ; atiou, the exultant vivas of the Liberalists; but all was doubt and uncertainty until a lurid flash, as of a rocket flaming through night, gave us a glimpse of the traitor Lopez stealthily admitting the Liberals to the Fort of La Cruce. The same light revealed the noble form of the betrayed Emperor, surrendering his sword to the blood-thirsty Escobedo. Vae Viet is ! Queretaro had fallen, aud its streets were running with the blood of its heroic defenders—deliberately butch ered! God knows there are red pages enough in the history of the world—let us hope, for the sake of common "hu manity that the story of Escobedo’s worse than Camanche revel, may never be written in full. We know enough— too much already—and have supped our full of the horrors of war. Once more the darkness of doubt closed over the fate of unhappy Mexico. From out the gloom we heard the death cry of Mendez, and a fiendish clamor for the blood of Maximilian. From the Delta'of the Mississippi, to the banks of the Hudson, and the far shores of Newfoundland, flashed the news that the Empire founded by Na poleon 111, in the capital of the Aztecs, was among the things that were, and throughout the length and breadth of this continent there was but one senti ment expressed—profound pity lor the captive Emperor! From the bleak shores of Newfoundland the slender wires of the cable carried the mournful tidings elf Maximilian’s captivity to the rocks of Valentia, and thence it was transmitted to the remotest cuds of the world. There are great doings in the City of Pleasure-Drench Babylon. Crowned with his glittering diadem, robed in royal purple, surrounded with the wealth of France and the spoils of Eu rope, Napoleon sits in state, and holds high revel. Monarchs salute his check, princes and power kiss his sceptred hand, courtiers of all nations bend their supple knees before him. To night is the banquet oF kings, the good things of the earth are piled up before them— dainties of every clime 1 The royal host signifies his pleasure to drink to his annointed guests; the golden gob lets are already filled ; the trumpeters raise their instruments and await the signal; the cannoneer stands ready with his match to proclaim the despot’s toast to the slaving citizens without, when lo ! our modern Belshazzar stnrts from his gilded throne in terror. Among the glittering decorations which adorn the wall of this banquet room, he sees in characters of fire, traced by the lightnings of heaven, words of fearful import—“ Maximilian is doomed 1" Turn we again to Mexico. By another fitful flash we see the fallen Emperor and his devoted generals dragged before a tribunal of barbarians to hear their common doom pronounced. Better now to be Maximilian the con demned, who having made his peace with God and blessed bis enemies, lies down upon the floor of his loathsome dungeon aud sleeps the sweet sleep of resignation—dreaming, perhaps, ol poor Carlotta, and their happy days at sunny Miramar, than Napoleon, the conscience stricken, writhing on his couch of down in the palace of the Tuilleries. Os the efforts to save Maximilian we have no knowledge. The Government of the United States, mighty as it undoubtedly is, appears to have been completely paralyzed by the suddenness of the crisis. But, had the Washington Cabinet been ever so ably represented at the headquarters of Juarez, it is doubtful if either remonstrances or threals would have prevailed against the barbarous outcry for the captive’s blood. That the Republican cause has tri umphed is mainly owing to the counte nance and support Juarez has received from the Government of the United States, but by his last act the Mexican President bus forfeited all claim upon our sympathies, and proved himself utterly unfit for the position of a Repub lican leader, uuwoilhy the name of soldier, a disgrace to all mankind. It will be remembered that when brought before Escobedo, Maximilian, like a true soldier, as he was, desired that if any one was to he shot lie might be the first. The only favor he condescended to ask of his barbarous captors was that his body should not be treated with indignity. What did the fiends do 7 The hand trembles with indignation as we write that this noble man—his birth uud rauk sbul! go for nothing—this prince among Nature’s gentlemen, was dragged from his place of confinement, and placed belore hie executioner* as naked as he teas bom. Thu* ends the saddest story of the present epoch—a tragi dy to which there are happily but few parallels. Although we rejoice in the downfall of Napoleon’s Mexican Empire, our sorrow fur the fate of .Maximilian is in tense. To day the nations of Europe will join in the lamentations of the ill fated Hapshurgg. Presently the (ample of the Old World will cry to us across the Atlantic, imploring ns to avenge the Archduke’s cruel death. II our Gov ernment answers that cry, our own po litical divisions will be at once forgot ten, and our people make common cause in the grand crusade to punish the mur derers of Maximilian and plunderers of Mexico, anil give the people of that dis traded country the shelter of our flag and the blessings of a strong and responsible Government. Let the word go forth, tui| the unholy war cries of civil strife will bo drowned forever iu thunder shout, “On to Mexico.” A Young Minister Hugged Against His Will—He Gets Mad, and Goes Home to tell his Mother. A most ludicrous scene transpired in a place not a thousand miles from the city of Louisville, one night last week, which, though a little annoyiug to the parties immediately concerned, was so innocent and funny that we cannot re frain from giving the general outlines, suppressing names, of course. Two sprightly and beautiful young ladies were visiting their cousin, another sprightly and beautiful young lady, who, like her guests, was of that happy age which turns every tiling into fun and merriment. If the truth were fold we fear that we should have to record the fact that these three misses were just a little bit fast. They were fond of prac tical jokes, and were continually playing all sorts of mad prauks with each other. All three occupied a room on the erouud floor and cuddled up together in one bed. Two of the young ladies attended a party on the night in question, and did not get home until half past 12 o'clock at night. As it was late they concluded not to disturb the household, so they quietly stepped into their rqpm through the low window. In about half an hour after they had left for the party a young Methodist minister called at the house where they were staying and craved a night’s lodg ing, which of course was cheerfully granted. As ministers always have the best of everything, the eld lady put him to sleep in the best room, and the young lady (Fannie), who had not gone to the party, was entrusted with the duty of sitting up for the absent ones, aud of informing them of the change of rooms. She took up her post in the parlor, and as the night was sultry, sleep overcame her and she departed on an excursion to the land of dreams. We will now return to the young ladies, who had gone into their room through the w-indow. Bythediin light of the moonbeams as they struggled through the curtains, the young l>dies were enabled to descry the outline of Fannie (as they supposed) eusconced in the middle of the bed. They saw more, to-wit —a pair of boots. The truth flashed upon them both at once. They saw it all. Fannie had set the boots in the room to give them a good scare. They put their heads together, aud determined to turn the tables on her. Silently they disrobed, and as stealthy as cats they took their positions on each side of the bed. At a given signal they both jumped into bed, one on each side of the unconscious parson, laugh ing and screaming, “ Oh. what a man ! Oh, what a man 1” They gave the poor bewildered minister such a promiscuous hugging and tousling as few persons are able to brag of in the course of a lifetime. The noise of this proceeding awoke the old lady, who was sleeping in an adjoining room. She comprehended the situation in a moment, and rushing to the room, she opened the door and exclaimed : “ My God, gals, it is a man 1 It is a man, sure enough 1” There was one prolonged, consoli dated scream ; a flash of muslin through the door, and all was over. The best of the joke is that the min ister took the whole thing in earnest. He would listen to no apologies the old lady could make for the girls. He would hear no excuse, but he solemnly folded his clerical robes around him and si lently stole away. , Query—Was he mod at the girls, or at the old woman ?

C., carries on extensive iron works, employs one hundred and fifty laborers, and has established a school for freedmen, of which his wife and daughters are the teachers.
