[Communicated.]
Queen Victoria.
Mo. Editor; I beg to coll your
attention to one or two paragraphs,
colled at random from some of your
cotemporaries, involving the good name
and fair fame ot the illustrious Lady,
whoee name I bare taken the liberty of
placing at the head of this communica
tion. One paragraph says:
There is much unpleasant talk about
Queen Victoria in England just now.
It in aaid, for instance, that she drinks
too much wiue; that her temper is
violent, and that she is so parsimonious
on to limit the supply of bread and
butter to the servants.
Another gallant and veracious writer
tells us that “Queen Victoria’s likes
ore Tapper and old Port Wine—one she
mads and the other she tipples.”
Again, “ There ia much nnpleasant
talk about the Queen of England, now.”
It is my privilege to have access to
many ot the leading London, Liverpool,
and Irish newspapers, weekly; yet in no
one of these journals have I ever found
a single paragraph, allusion or inuendo,
that could, by any possible human in
genuity, be construed into the most
remote justification of such malignant
■landers, of which the paragraphs
quoted above are, I am pained to say,
hut isolated specimens.
It is a curious anomaly, that in the
year of grace, 1867, one feels called
npon to defend the private life of good
Queen Victoria, whose celebrity for all
that is pure, and good, and virtuous,
was equally as familiar at every Amer
ican family fireside as throughout her
own gigantic empire. The great mis
fortune about these falsehoods is their
mischievousness. While any well in
formed man or woman in this country
can afford to treat them with the con
tempt they merit; and while the British
people would laugh them to scorn, yet
nineteen out of every twenty American
readers believe them true.
One might hare reasonably expected
that in this enlightened age and coun
try the private character of any woman
was entitled to a certain degree of
respect, and especially so when the
woman in question is a Queen, whose
private life has been an ornament to
society, an honor to her sex, and a rare
example of Christian purity.
The more closely we scrutinize the
private life ot this illustrions lady, the
more every better feeling of our roau
hood revolts against the traducers,
whose malevolence would endeavor to
hunt down the spotless name and moral
character of a woman in her old age,
ere she had yet laid aside the habil
ments of mourning, lor the husband
she loved so ardent’y, so devotedly.
At no period of her long and popular
yeign, has Victoria been more firmly
enthroned in the hearts of her people
than to day. Since the death of her
beloved husband she has sought retire
ment and seclusion, and carefully
avoided the “pomp and circumstance”
that usually surrounds royalty- Only
upon one occasion, and tl at recently—at
the laying the foundation stone of the
“Temple of Arts and Sciences,” in
London (and then clad iu her widow’s
weeds) —has she appeared in public.
Such a popular ovation was then ac
corded to her as ought to make those
who pea such paragraphs hide their
heads ia shame and disgrace for ever.
The viper may gnaw away at his file,
the great and good Victoria will pass
none the less serenely through the
closing shades of a long and illustrious
reign; and when some future Agnes
Strickland comes to write her “Lives of
the Queens of England,” the name of
VICTORIA will rise up proudly und
grandly as the personation of all that
was good, and wise, and virtuous; and
pure, benevolent and humane.
Ax Irishman.
—The Terre Haute Journal says that
a few days since, a woman, living near
Center Point, Clay county, Indiana,
went to a creek near her house to do
the family washing, taking with her
three small children. The two elder,
while playing about the woods, were
bitten by a venomous snake, and tbeir
screams attracting the attention of the
mother she hastened to their relief,
thoughtlessly leaving the smallest child,
which, during her absence, fell into the
creek and was drowned. The other
children died the same night from the
effect of the snake bite.
Let Well Enough Alone.
Those who predicate emigration wilt
find tome sound arguments in the fol
lowing extract*. They are plain enough
without additional comment. The first
extract in two pietore* draws bf the
Baton Rouge Advertiser of the &lk
instant:
First, with a gilt border. An accredited
Sent visiting Honduras in order to
ect lands for a company of specula
tors. Ue is received by the officials,
rides its carriages and on horseback at
the public expense, makes out a list of
the fruits of the country from the speci
mens od the table at some great dinner
given by the authorities or land owners,
and returns highly delighted without
even a specimen of the soil of the coun
try on his polished boots.
The second picture is that of a penni
less emigrant sitting on the beach at
Belize surrounded by his little plunder,
helpless wife, and flock of children. It
is the rainy season, and flies, gnats, etc.,
abound. There are b) committees to
receive him, no earring**, no dinners,
nod when he essays to move into the
woods he goes on loot, through a wilder
ness, to commence a struggle for the
first common necessaries of life, without
a baud extended to aid him.
On tbe above, the New Orleans
Picayune remarks:
This is quite correct as a general
picture of the poverty stricken emigrant
wherever he goes; but applies to a
Georgian moving to Louisiana or Texas,
as much as if he was going to Hondu
ras. We are opposed to migrations by
our people, as much from one State to
another, as from the South to Hondnras,
and we tell men who are not practical
farmers, and who have not the means to
support themselves, until they can clear
land and make a crop, to stay where
they are and make their land yield well
through thorough cultivation and ma
nuring, and to become independent
through small crops. The only people
we would advise to migrate are those
who live on lands subject to overflow,
and we tell them to settle on the high
land nearest to them.

TBE DEATH OF MAXIMILIAN.
A correspondent of the Times, writing
from Mexico under date of June 26,
says :
Colonel Sanger, of tbe Republican
army, arrived here from Queretaro last
night. He saw the execution of Max
imilian. He says: When the Emperor
came down to the Plaza, which was the
one where the city refuse is thrown, he
took a scat on a mde stone bench until
after he had seen Generals Mejia and
Miramon shot and their bodies taken
away. Be then beckoned to Prince
Salm Salm, who stood near him, to
approach. He calmly requested this
officer to give him a good cigar, in Eng
lish. He lit the segar and walked
erectly and steadily to the low platform,
which consisted of a few planks laid
upon the deposits of outhouses, with
which this square was covered. After
asking the sergeant of tbe riflemen to
do him the favor to aim directly at his
heart, he seated himself upon the stool
where but a few minutes before he had
seen expire two brave geueral whom he
loved.
Casting away his segar, he told them
he was ready. Scarcely a minute after
ward, the clang of eighteen rifles was
beard, and Maximilian was a corpse,
without a shudder or a spasm. We had
fought for years. We had suffered in
campaigns, but there was not a Liberal
officer or soldier, there was not a soli
tary spectator at that scene, who did
not weep. “I do not know,” said the
narrator, “what my countrymen mean.
All they seem todesire is blood ! blood !!
blood 111 1 have seen it flowing in all
the streets of Queretaro, and fairly
loathed my land. I h udtnted to return
to my wife and children, whom I had
not seen in four years, because I knew
that the capital of my country was to
be made as red with blood as was
Queretaro.”
ROYAL MIBFORTUNES.
A < or.espomlent, speaking of the
violent death of the Austrian Archduke
Maximilian, remarks that many of bis
relatives appear to have suffered griev
ous blows of fortune. The Princess
Charlotte, wifeoi Leopold, died in child
birth. His daughter married the Duke
of Orleans, who was killed by a fall
from a cab. Their children were ex
pelled Irom the throne of France. The
Princess Carlotta is crazed. Maria
Antoinette was executed. Maria Louisa
was expelled from France. An Arch
duchess was lately burned to death.
Railroad Accident.
The Louisville Courier of Saturday
last reports a serious accident on the
Nashville Railroad, by which three of
the passenger cars and one sleeping
conch were thrown from the tnck.
About twenty five passengers were in
the train, all of whom were more or
less bruised. The accident was occa
sioned by the misplacemeut of a switch.

Grr Rid of the Evil.—The farmers
near Bainbridge, says the Argot, are

to contend against, on account of the
recent amount of rain. Go vigorously
to work and get rid of it.
New Telegraph Lises.— The Bain
bridge Argot says that that town will
soon be reached by a telegraph line;
and wishes also for banking facilities,
which we hope will soon be accom
plished.
Is Luck.— lt is stated that Dr. A. M.
Sneed, of Savannah, brother of one of
the proprietors of the Macon Telegraph,
