JUNE 30, 1806 I fVJL\a - 7 - il I SANTA ANNA AND MEXICO. The 1 Indelicate if not impudent proposi tion of Santa Anna to the Mexican people i to expel Maximilian and accept bis leader ship in establishing a Republic will bare the good effect of again inviting the attention of the public, to the perfidy and sordidness which have characterized bis entire political life. He labors very ingeniously in his re cent address to bis countrymen to cover up his disgraceful record, and to commend him- - self as the only living Mexican capable of extricating them from the alleged perils of their present situation. But we imagine be will find it difficult, with all his Jesuitical cunning, to regain the confidence of a people whose interests be has betrayed so often. For tunately there are not wanting in this country prominent Mexicans, espousing the liberal cause, who are capable of exposing bis an tecedents so fully, as to prevent the accom plishment of his unpatriotic and selfish pur poses. Seme of them arc already engaged in the work and have published a synopsis of documents which are calculated to place tiio ex-Cnief in a bad light. These docu ments include his remarkable letter to the Mexican Regency, giving in his cohesion to Maximilian, and his address to bis country men takes the same ground. In one of these documents he speaks of Maximilian as “the illustrious prince de signed in the sublime counsels of divine Providence, to raise the nation from the ubjss of miWortune into which she has been; plunged by anarchy. In another he says: “The people, wearied with the anarchy of half a century, with false promises and fine theories, anxious to have a paternal govern ment, just and enlightened, proclaimed with enthusiasm the re-establishment of the Em pire of the Montezumas by a dynasty of royal extraction, voting at once for Emperor the illustrious Prince Maximilian, Archduke of Austria. The demagogues, in their despera tion, are exhausting the resources that they are able to use, believing that by combating they are defending Mexican independence; but the day will arrive when they will find out that patriotism was not on their side in the present struggle.” He then goes on to say that he came to the pountry to give “new proof of the respect I i to the national will now so in agreement belief and convictionand he warns aen to “guard in their memory aimous monarch (Napoleon) who aded to you his powerful hand so ielv and generously.” He tells them tempts to form a republic have only brought “ discredit and desolation in Ariieri-a, ’ while “constitutional monarchy” has given “better and more lasting fruit.” Santa Anna landed in Mexico after its con quest by the French, under a solemn promise to take no part in political affairs. His ad dress, from which the above quotations are made, was regarded by the French General as sneh an interference, and a ship was placed r.i his disposal to take him out of the country. He went to 8t. Thomas, find imme diately fulminated another address, under <late of July 8th, 1864. After stating that he “never deceived them," he explains hi9 con duct in Mexico. He stated that he “adhered to the system of government which appeared to be pro claimed by a considerable majority;” but he “soon found it a painful error,” and he now contemplates with pride “your struggle for life with the invaders of your country, the soldiers called forth by the intervention.” It will be rerpembered that the Mexican residents of New York city, about two months since, convened at the house of the Mexican Consul, and passed a series of resolutions, characterizing the traitor as an odious tyrant, who had “betrayed the cause of native inde pendence and abused the public power” in Mexico, and that “his name alone would be sufficient to stain the noble cause the Mexi can people are struggling to maintain.” if additional evidence were needed to ex pose the true character of this heartless wretch, it may be found in those bloody pages of Texas history reciting the massacre by tus orders of those gallant Texans who surrendered at Goliad and the Alamo, and for which he should have been executed as a murderer when captured at San Jacinto.

He is accordingly instructed to state that tbe United States sincerely desire that Austria may find it just and expedient to come upon the grooad of non-inter vention in Mexico, which is maintained by the United States, and to which they have invited France. They could not but regard as a matter of serious concern the dispatch of any troops from Austria for Mexico while the subject he wa3 thus directed to present to the Austrian Government re mains under consideration. Forcible and armed interference by European powers with the established institutions on the Western Continent was long ago proclaimed, on the highest official authority, to be considered a manifestation toward the United States.

In the firm conviction that the Cabinet at Washington will see in this p»o- ceeding of the Imperial Government a fur ther motive to persevere in its neutral atti tude toward Mexico, as well as a new proof of the sincere desire of the Imperial Govern ment to keep off all that could act unfavora bly on the relations of both countries, the undersigned avails himself, &c., Mensdorff.

Holden, of North Carolina, as Minister to San Salvador. . In the House Mr. Garfield, of Ohio, called np the motion to reconsider the vote by which the bill to ea. tablisli a National Bureau of Education was rejected, and the question being put, the motion prevailed— yeas 76, nays 49. The bill was then read a third time and passed—yeas 30, nays 44. Mr. Rogers, of New Jersey, presented to the House the minority report of the Committee on Reconstruc tion. It is a long document, consisting of an elaborate argument in tavor of the President's policy, and the immediate admission of the South to representation. It takes the ground that a State can neither be with drawn nor be expelled from tbe IJnion—that the war was to preserve, not to destroy, the States. The re port concludes with an eulogy of the purity of the mo tives of President Johnson. The remainder of the session of the House was occupied by the considera tion of the New Army Bill.

Jackson, (Stonewall Jackson,) by Pro testor R. L Dabney, D. D., Illustrated with steel portrait and eleven diagrams. We have received from the National Pub lishing Company a copy of tbe~above vol ume. Apart from its intrinsic value as a bis- tmy professional, and personal, of one of tbe most distinguished military men of our day, patriot and Christian gentleman, the fact that the proceeds of its sale are to go to his widow and orphaus will give it a wide cir- ■ cu.aiion throughout the South.

This little volume will be read with interest not only by the Irishtdeh in America but by all who sympathise with the cause of the Irish people. Mr. Stephens, in a note to the publisher, speaking of the book, says : “While some of its statements are incorrect, the writer has treated his subject as credita bly as could be expected in the present state of Ireland, and the unfortunate dissensions auiocg Jier aons in America.” We are indebted to Messrs.

If goods are supplied to an adminis trator who represents estates which are two in law but one in fact, the creditor is not bound to show for which of the estates they were furnished. 3. In this case there was some evidence tending to establish that tbe effects of the two estates had never been separated, and therefore the charge of the Court on that subject was not irrelevent.—Judgment Af firmed. Starnes for Plaintiff in error. Lalierstedt for Defendant. Fish ) Statutory proceeding against vs. >- tenant holding over. From Van Winkle j Richmond. Lumpkin, Ch. J.—I. The Jury may con sider the evidence of an impeached witness. This proposition is correct law of itself; and is certainly so when limited with the proviso that the evidence be in harmony with truth, and corroborated with other evidence. 2. A charge that an offer of recision is not too late if made within a reasonable time, and that the intervening occurrences may be considered on that question, is as favorable to the party moving for the recision as he has a right to ask. 3. So, also, is a charge that a trade in duced by untrue representations is vitiated. This is going to the uttermost boundary of the law. 4. Where no motion for a new trial has been made in the Court below, the Supreme Court will not pass upon the question whether the verdict was contrary to law, con trary to evidence, contrary to law and evi dence, contrary to the weight of evidence or contrary to the charge of the Conrt.—Judg ment Affirmed. Sneads & Lalierstedt for Plaintiff in error. Starnes & Johnson for Defendant. U nderwood. A correspondent, writing from Herkimer, New York, the native place of Underwood, gives a brief sketch 0* the past history of this now notorious person, from which we make the following extract. Tdo read er will recollect this as copied verbatim from a No rthern paper, and is an accurate estimate of Underi rood’s standing where he was born The unworthy and disgraceful charge of Jud; je Un derwood to the Grand Jury of the United Status Dis trict Court at Richmond, which appears in the New York papers of to-day, induces me to inform yriuand your readers who this Underwood is, and wh at his past history has been. Here, where he is knowi 1, it is not necessary, but the public should have soLae in formation us to what kind of a man he is, and in what estimation he was held. Underwood was born in this county (Herkimer coun ty, New York,) and remained a resident here until about the year 1850. After being admitted to t'be bar be opened an office in this village. The precise time is not now recollected, but it must have been about the year 1838. At that time he was a member of the Whig party. From his defeat for office in the Whig party, he became a famous abolitionist, and down to the time he lelt the county he was an Abbey Killer Foster abolitionist. He opened a law office, hut he never was able, us a lawyer, to command the respect of his lellow-cltizens. He was without clients, and mainly because he was a lazy drone, and because there was a general feeling in the community that his in tegrity could not be relied upon. So low had lie sunk in that respect in the estimation of his townsmen that his name was a reproach, and his presence was con sidered no compliment, and his character was 30 pro tection to him from open iusults in the streets. At one ti me some mischievous boys in this village did to him what they would never have thought of doing to any man of respectable standing in the village. They drove a donkey into his office and left him ihere alt night. Failing as a lawyer, and having plenty of leisure, he made himself conspicuous in the abolition movement, and occasionally delivered abolition aud temperance lectures, until at last, driveu to the necessity of doing something for a living, he purchased some standing wood and commenced getting out wood and Lies fur the Railroad Company. While in practice here, among other stories cur rently told of him, as characteristic of the man, was one to this effect: An ignorant old man wanted to buy or complete his title to a lot of land in this town, the fee ot which was owned by an estate, the a -ent of which resided In Albany. He gave Underwood the money to take to Albany to make the purchase or get the deed lor him. Underwood ouine bai l; with the contract or title in his own name, and represented to —® ^ man that he could uot, on account ot some difficulty got the land tor him; but he found that he could purchase it for himself, and did so in iiis own name, but he would sell the laud for an advanced Pri-.e, which the oid man was compelled to give in order to get the land. Finally, starved out, he broke up and went with his Lundy to Virgiuia, Fauquier county, I believe, to live upon some lauds which belonged to his wile So iar as he was personally concerned, no one having respect tor himself, cared for him or regretted his leaving It was considered a happy riddance, and when he had gone there was a general feeling in this county that it had got rid of a nuisance. He held the office of trustee of a school district in this village, and as such was entrusted with some of the funds of the district aud ho applied them to his own use. When called upon by his successor iu office to account for the mouf'-j, lie could not do it, uud, idler jcpeattd do mantis upon him for the money und failing to got it his successor sued him before a justice aud recovered judgment, which, after considerable, delay, was col lected on execution. On another occasion he collected money for a client, and on being written to by h«ia to know if the collection was made, he replied that the money was net collected, und his client was lod to be lieve by Underwoo.; that he had lulled to collect the money; aud some time after he had left the county his client called upon other attorneys to collect the amount, when on investigation it was found that this worthy, whom the war has brought to the surface as a judge, hud collected tha aud had gone to Virgin upon to pay over, ah pleading that he had A no one knowing him hi I have said he went to his wife. She is a lady came acquainted while teaching school m Virginia, and to whom ho was married about 1330. She is a Virginian, and is honorably connected, beiDg a double- cousin of the late great Confederate General Stone wall Jackson. Underwood continued to reside on his wife's lands until 1856, when he turned up as a dele gate lrom Virginia iu the Nationalal Republican Con vention which nominated Fremont for President. He, of course, had no constituents. He was a self-styled delegate taking his seat in that Convention, and very naturally such a course ou his part excited some sur prise aud indignation among his Virginia neighbors, who, on seeing his name announced as a candidate to that Convention,at some meeting held in his neighbor hood. passed resolutions indignantly denying that he was authorized to express or represent the senti ment of any portion of the people of Virginia in that Convention. He was at once adopted by the Republican disorgan izes as au instrument to be used by them, and none more pliant or base could be lound; and the next we I hear of him we find him appointed to some agency iu a Virginia Emigration Society, then founded” in New York. Too lazy to work, he lound his connection with this society more suitable to his taste and disposition 1 „ than the drudgery of a farm life in Virginia The ■ < * ence - corner Taylor and Price streets, THIS HORN- next heard of him he turns up at the Chicago Conven- . iNG, at 10 o’clock. * tion which nominated Lincoln, and again as a delegate ! — -- ■ from 1 irgmia, although he had long ceased to he a resident ot that State.
