This road js being rapidly constructed, anil is now in operation to within fifteen miles of this place, and will be completed to the town of Cardova within a few months, and to the City of Mexico within two years. These lands arc three thousand feet above the level of the sea, and are as fer tile as any of the Platte lands.

News.] They are unsurpassed in the irodnetion of com, tobacco, coffee, vegeta- iles of every kind, and all the tropical fruits. The lands, which lie between this elevated country and the coast, produce as much and as good cotton as the Louisiana lands. We are practically as near the markets of New York and New Orleans as the people of Central Missouri are; and the climate is the liest in the world. The thermometer never rises above ninety degrees, nor falls below seventy. The water is excellent, and we can get ice from the mountains covered with per petual snow, which are in plain sight, and about thirty miles distant. The Imperial Government lias purchased the lands from the original proprietors, anil sells them to ns at one dollar an acre. ' “Our colony commences with about thirty Confederates, all of whom are in high spirits, and expect to make fortunes Vaising coffee. A gentleman who has lived here a few years, sold his lost year's coffee crop for sixteen thousand dollars. It was produced on sixty acres of land. He works only ten hands. He tells me that his fruit trees can supply his table with a-different variety of fruit each day in the year.

Mr. Sumner seems to have taxed his agination in multiplying requirements which grant nothing to the justice and fidelity of Southern citizens, but which would impose upon them a humiliating suhscrvgncy to an arrogant assumption of superiority in all that'distinguishes civilization from barbar ism. Mr. Wilson is anxious not to be outstrip ped in dictatorial presumption, and follows the steps of his colleague in bristling opposi tion to the President’s policy of restoration.

' New. Y’ork, Dec. 9.—At a session ofthc Senate of tlie Fenian Brotherhood, held in New York on the 9tli, articles of impeach ment were filled against John O’Mahony for perfidy and malfeasance of office. The charges and specifications, which are very minute and voluminous, were served on Mr. O’Mahony the tollowing day with a notice to put in a plea in response within twenty-fonr hours, under a penalty of having the charge of defraud preferred against him. Mr. O’Mahoney, liqving taken no steps against the indictment preferred against him, the Senate to-day resolved itself into a court of judicature according . to the provisions of the'Constitution, and having investigated the charges declared them proved, and deposed Mr. O’Mahony from the position of president. A unanimous vote was then passed calling upon Vice Pres ident 'W. R. Roberts to be qualified by taking the oath of office, on which that gentleman was sworn in, stipulating beforehand that no compensation should be attached to the po sition while lie occupied it. The Secretary of the Treasury, B. D. Killion, lias also befcn deposed on grounds similar to those advanced against Mr. O’Mahony.

In general corroboration of the foregoing estimates is that .FepuWished from the New York Tribunem the circular of the “South ern Land Company,” 31 Broadway, which is substantially .as follows: Cost of plantation, 1000 acres. $10,000 - “ stocking same. 1 . 5,000 50 hands, at $25 per month per hand 15,600 Allow for taxes and all other expenses 10,000 Total V....*37,500 Result—500 acres of cotton, 500 bales, 500 pounds per bale, 250,000 pounds, which; at 20 cents per pound,'yields $50,060.' In this case an allowance is made for 500 acres in-woodland and corn, and plantation and stock would still be on hand. The accuracy of these estimates will be fully tested in a few months, both by associa ted and individual enterprise, tor the pros- lect is certainly flattering, and there is a arge surplus capital in the country which will not let it go unipproved. .Vox,’ Estimate of the Cotton Cnor for the Ykar aNd of thf.

In round numbers they make the total amount of the old and new cotton crop 2,000,000 to 2,100,000 bales. . They estimate tho quantity totally unfit to spin at not oVer 100,000 bales.

Dec. 11.—At the close of the reading of the journal, and after the transaction of some unimportant business, Mr. Kirbt, of Chat tooga, moved to suspend the rules to take up the resolution bringing on tjic election of U S. Senators. Mr. DuBose, of Hancock, was opposed to going into an election at this time. It was important that the legislation in reference to freedmen should l>c perfected at as curly day as possible. Under existing circuc stances, they could very well defer the cle tion of Senators until after the inauguration of the Governor. By that time they might be able to avail themselves of the services of a distinguished citizen, whom the people of Georgia delight to honor, and who, he felt confident, would receive the almost unam mous vote of the Genera! Assembly for a po rtion which he was so well qualified to fill ! to the advantage and honor of the State ami I country. The impediment! ut present exist ing in the wny of his accepting the position would, it was hoped, bj, that time, be re moved. . . :*■*•«■»* .olbdj: ^ 4 * Mr. Kirhy Insisted upon taking up the resolution. He thought, if the people could, see the action of the House in this matter, they would stand aghast at their delay. The President had intimated that he desired a 'qx^edy organization of the State Government, and the election of Senators and Representa tives. . The people desired the same thing. So far us they were concerned, they had acted promptly. They had elected a Convention and a Lcvridaturr, and they expected the meml«ers of that body to elect Senators and other officers, and proceed with the legisla tion that was so much needed in the present unsettled condition of the country. There was another reason. He desired to hold these elections at once so that the candidates might go home, and no longer occupy the attention of members. He §nw no propriety in further postponement, in the expectation that the dUtiiurnishod gentleman alluded to would accept the position of Senator. He hud understood from wlint he considered good authority that th&i gentleman had put hiueelf in communication with the Prudilent, v aaJ that ibst President hail advised atrainst !iV lieruraing a candidate lor that office. - Mr. Putter, of Warren, was prepared to state that the declaration of the speaker was hori^Si.

Sumner, Wilson & Co., have a longing for arbitrary power and summary punishment, and so long ns they can be judges and executioners enjoy their positions hugely and strive to, retain them; but should they find themselves upon an equality with those they would fetter— the limbs of both parties free—the contest would be quite a different affair; tbisis what they fear anil seek to avoid. Preservation of “Fresh Meat,”—A year ago n private association was formed in Eng land for the purpose of discovering the best method of supplying tlie markets of that counity with fresh animal food from thore parts of tlie world where, comparatively speaking, it is produced in excessive quanti ties ami almost without cost. Inconsequence of the efforts of this occasion, a Mr. Rich ard Jones has, it is said, discovered a process,' already patented, whereby beef, mutton, poultry, nml other articles of the kind, may “bo preserved in a fresh raw state for an in definite period, and under all circumstances of climate and temperature.” The company has a well knowE and respectable board of directors to carry the patent into operation. Considering the high and continually increas ing price of fresh meat in England, the in vention is of great value. 'If the statements of the English papers arc correct, the application of this discovery to animal food, thus preserved in the far West, and brought to New York, where it could be safely kept and sold at any period of the year, is of great importance to the citizens of New Y’ork. Turkeys, quails; partridges and venison, killed at Christmas, and thus kept till midsummer, would be no small addition to the larder: and cheap beif. brought fre»h by this process from Texas, where it costs less than $o to raise a good four-year old steer, would “ lie well worthy of a grace as langV my arm." It would confer immense benefits upon every da?.- of the emumuatap f> We find nodeseriptb n of the method by which the preservation is effected. The capi tal of the company Is £100,000, half of which is already subscribed; and the owner of a large estate in Australia has offered to “ sup ply the company with meat of the finest qual ity at a penny (two cent?) per pound." Gov. Onn’s Message.—A special dispateh to the Charleston News gives the following abstract ofGoiLOjrr's message: Columbia, Dec. 6.—Message No. 1 of Gov. Orr has been received. He says that the From Mexico.—Official nows to tlie 17th ult., from ttio eityof Mexico, has been receiv ed. No confirmation of the report of the de feat of the Liberal forces.. The French arb concentrating their forces on San Louis Poto- si, tlie eityof Mexico and on the ftioGrande. The. abandonment ofthc States of Sonora, Si- nola, Chihuahua, Nuevo, Leon, and Cohiella, is confirmed. Tlie Liberals are daily gaining ground, and the number of their forces rapid ly increasing. Tlie Iturbide family have re nounced tlieir right to live in Mexico and all the political claims they may have to the Mex ican throne for the sunj of $100,000 ajsqce.— Mr. Angel Ifttrblde has given his own child to Maximilian, and the boy, only two years old, has been adopted by Maximilian, and made an Imperial Prince. Mrs..Iturbide, hi9 mother, has been the victim of an infamous plot. She has beat taken away from her son after being compelled to sign a paper renounc ing ber rights as a mother. It has been de cided to send ber out of the country. The Im penal Minister of the Treasury states that the finances of the empire are in a hopeless • con dition, that the necessary’ expenses arc $40, 000,000, and the receipts not'$15,000,000. ' Negro Testimony in Mississippi.—The following is a section of the law enacted by the Legislature of Mississippi for the govern ment of the free colored population, relating to testimony r ! ‘ Section 4. Be it ftirffur enacted, That I addition to cases in which frccdmcn7 free negroes and mulattocs are now by law com petent witnesses, freedmen, free negroes and mulattocs shall be competent in civil cases when aparty or parties to the suit, either plaintiff or plaintiffs, defendant or defend ants, and a white person or persons is or are the opposing party or parties, plaintiff or plaintiffs, defendant or defendants.

Pro vided, in all cases, such witnesses shall examined in open court, <m tbe stand, except, however, they may be examined before the Grand Jury, and shall in all cases be subject to the rules and tests of the common law to competency and credibility. *- F* G • The vote in tbe Senate on tbe measure was —yeas, 16; nays, 13.

Died, in Macon connty Ga., October let, 18G5, Mrs. Maby C. Rooebs, in her C5th year. One more of earths weary Pilgrims has reached the haven of rest. Though disease had claimed her for his victim for nearly eight years, yet her last stroke was sndden and unexpected. Being as well usual, she was seated at the table lor dinner, when suddenly she raised her eyes, and with look filled with love and affection, she gazed for moment into the fake of her daughter, then the fatal stroke shot through her already emaciated frame, and shesank back into her chair speechless, She breathed gently and- softly for a few hours, and that beautiful Sabbath evening, as a halo of light was playing on the sky after the Suns de cline, her spirit took its flight, to hail the-glorions light of Heaven; there to sing with unnumbered angels around the throne of God. Such a sweet hour for tfifj death of a Christian! One so fitted to subdue the heart, and lead the soul to God. Her atmeuons deprived her of many sweet ’privileges we enjoy, but those she regretted most, were at tending public worship, and reading the bible. Often while reading to her of the rich rewards of the finally faithful, her withered fiice would bright en, and her eyes dim with age, would h* filled with tears,, she then had a sweet foretaste of neaven, but now it is changed to glad fruition. “She is at borne, that brighter home, She sighed so oft to gain, , That furrowed brow is shining nodf. The body free from pain.” Many were the attractions in Heaven for her, the infirmities of age crept on, trouble* Sore and heavy came, all of which she bore with the patience that characterizes a true Christian. She lived sec nearly all her family cross the dirk valley and shadow of death. May God bless the two that are left, and save the family, unbroken in Heaven. G. AUCTION, SALES.
