The Xeiirtn Katpirr.
The lat rat advice* float Mexico, all bar*
muuite to the tff- et, that Maximilian, rumor*
to the contrary notwithstanding, baa not
abdicated hit throne, and, what ia more, baa
not in* remotest intention of ao doing la
Jaat, it ia veritably avouched that all of the
moat influential and responsible citiacna of
that empire, the clergy particularly, are in
faro# of Maximilian remaining, and bolding
oo |>ertinaeiou*ly to hi* throoe, and further,
that they bare gone ao far ae to pledge
thesaelrca lo auatain him with men and
men**. In a word, the plain inference to
be gathered from all tbe facta that reach na,
ie that all the dctency, and all the aenae,
and all the Lon tom of the country ia de
claring for tbe Emperor, while, per contra,
tbe mob, and the rabble, and the lawlcsa,
and tbe desperate, and the adretiti r; us, are
following the fori unci of that gncr>.Ln chief,
J uarex.
We rather opine that the really sagacious
and patriotic of that unfortunate country
regard all three of the parties—the Juarez,
the Johnson Seward, and the Maximilian—*«
intcrmeddlera, as no belter than buccaneer*
only that aotuc of these buccaneers arc more
genteel, and seemingly leas obtrusive, than
the others. They certainly must look upon
that whining, sneaking-aLc’i, mendicant
party, heaJcd by Juaprx, as thcAjontetupti
hie, boot-licking [irotnje of the U. S. Gov
ernment, and they have just witnessed wliat
that said chaperoning Government will do
when it gets even a portion of its own citi
tens under the heel of its power, and are
forced to infer how much more tyrannical
it would be should Mexico ever be at its
tender mercies.
No wonder, then, the patriotism and vir
tue that ie left, of the wrecks and ilebrii
ol Mexican civilization, should declare out
right for Maximilian, as infinitely the least
of the three evils, who—usurper or buect
ncer as he may he along with the two—has
nevertheless proven himself thus fur as a
kind father and benefactor of the people,
not at a cruel, exac ing step-sire and ap
propriating tv rsnt.
Maximilian, not disturbed, would soon
establish a decent, humane government for
the Mexican people, while Juarez would
only protraot ilieir present misery, and the
United Stales would absorb (he whole
c ountry, turrwug it into a I'oUml or Ireland,
or, what is incalculably worn ■>, into another
Dixie.

GriOlti Fenmle College.
Tbe undersigned Committee, appointed
by the Trustees of the Griffin Female Col
lege to present some of its claims to pairon
age, beg to -ay that this institution of learn
ing possesses one feature scarcely known in
the bis'ory of Colleges,viz: that, while nearly
all others have sent out agents to solicit en
dowments, this one, now nearly 17 years old,
baa been thus far self-sustaining, never hav
ing asked the contribution of a dollar; and
so wide-sprend was iu lame for sending out
'graduates thoroughly educated, that, until
tbe wai broke out, there was really no ne
eessity of appealing to tbe public for pat-
ronage ; but now, after a partial suspension
of this school, sheer justice calls upon us to
appeal to the friends of educatiou every'
where to patronise it, or to recommend its
patronage to all who desire their duugh.ers
to beeome thoroughly educated in the high
er brunches of We can assure all
that the Faculty of this College are not only
eminently qualified, but have, by long years
of unrcmiting care, shown their fitness for
the position they occupy ; in short, we con
fidently assert that no College in this or
any other Stale prescuts higher claims to
patronage.
To those who are unacquainted with the
location of Griffin, we take pleasure in Ray
ing that we know of no locality more re
markable fur health. The water is very
much the same as that at Marietta, so cele
brated for its purity.
The morals amt taste of the citisens will
favorably comp ire with any other town or
oity.
There are five Churohes, each having an
efficient Pastor, and as tuis school is no
wise sectarian, the parents or pupils will
cbeoee their places ot worship.
It is due to the College to say that Pro
fessor Sckoeller is esteemed to be one of the
beat music teachers iu this or any other
country.
G’tffin ia easy of access, being situated
'on the railroad from Macon to Atlanta, 60
milaa front the former and 4o fium the latter.
Parent* and guardians may roly upon getting
hoard on as good terms nere as elsewhere,
m l the rules of the College guarantee a
wstehful care over the deporiiueui of the
p it pita,
Ami trovPwe appeal to the citiaeas of
Griffin to sustain this College. The growth
and pro-parity of this College is intnnatlye
connected with the growth and prosperity ot
the city. Before the war, more than fifty
thotisaud dollars whs expended annually in
Griffin by the pupils
Almost any other city would subscribe
enough to endow one or two professorships,
if, by so doing, they could secure the loca
tion of a tirat-clasa College in their midst,
while, ii> this eas , two enterpi»:«ing men years
ago vested tlieir all iu this College, and ask
now only that the citizens send their chiiren
as pupils. Will the people 0I G 1 iffiu do this,
or will they suffer the College to goVown,
and compel the Faculty to accept situs tie ns
tendered elsewhere ?
Newspa|tcrs favorable to education would
greatly oblige the board of Ti us tees by giv
ing the foregoing an insertion.

WaMMMTox. Item l\.— 9*nmte. —Mr-
Wade, ffm the Committee e* Tevriteriee,
report'd tbe bill introduced yeeUwday for
tbe tdmiwio I of Colorado.
At 2 SO tbe bill for negro suffrage in thi.
District waa taken up. The picittioo waa
upon tbe amendment of Mr Cowan to strike
out tbe word malr ao aa to grant tbe suf
frage to both aexes. Mr Anthony advoca
ted the amendment, ’ibe debate ia Htdl
progressing.
—M. Kelly presented memorial of
the Central Republican Committee of
lAMiiaiann, which was referred to the Com
mitten on reconstruction.
Tbe House passed a bill regulating the
duties of tbetr Clerk, requiring him to in
sert on the roll of member* #n ! y the names
ol those Irom tbe State* repteoented in the
nezt pn-cceding Congress, a* preliminary to
organization. A bill was also reported to
punish lor counting-fraudulent electoral vote*
—the preamble aeaerting that the late in
surrectionary States can t«e restored to rep
re-eniation only by the law-making powers,
lit consideration is posfpoued.
In the Senate the debate wit continued,
but nothing definite, on the negro suffrage
bill up lo ndjoumment.
Hunt*. —Mr. Evans made a speech on the
bill to repeal the statute ol limitations with
regard to treason and capital offenses Mr.
Stevens opposed tbe bill aa countenancing
crime. Treason was one which tuo-it re
quired to be quieted by time. The off-line
was criminal until a peace proclamation
was issued. None such had been issued.—
lie understood the uian at the other end ol
the avenue bad waned some pieces of paper,
but he did not regard them as prof amations
of peaoe. Those who rebel ed against the
government should be punished as captives.
No action was had on the bill.
The I'resideiit sent to the House papers
relative lo the cx-Conledersie General Pick
etl’s application lor pardon. It appesrs
that Advocate General Holt recommended
that l'lekett be pul on trial on a charge ol
having murdered twenty two men, prisoners
ol w»r, but the Secretary of War douliued
to do ao on the ground of the Supreme
Court having decided against military tri
bunals trying such cases Pickett a idre-s
--ed a letter to the President, asking for am
nesty, and one to Uraut asking for favorable
consideration, and explaining the circum
stances under which tbe men were executed,
lie simply acted as the General command
ing toe department, and the same waa sanc
tioned by the Confederate Government. Gen.
Grant made ao endor-emeni on the letter to
the President with a recommendation of
clemency, or that assurance be given that
no trial should take place lor uffeuae charge J
against Pickett. Gen. Arrant a ays ; During
the rebellion belligerent rights were ac
knowledged to the enemies of our country,
and it is clear to me that the parolo given
by the armies on laying down their arms
protects them against punishment ter acts
lawful for any other belligerent. The pun
ishment ol the men whs a hard otto, but it
was in time of war wb.n the cuerny no
doubt felt it necessary to retain by Mine
power the services of every man within their
reach. General Pickett 1 know personally
to be an honorable man, but in thi.- c;*»e his
judgement promoted hint to do tvnui can
not well be sustained, though I do not sea
how good, either to tbe friends of the de
ceased, or by tlx inn an example tor the lu
ture,can be seemed by bis trial now. it
would only open up the qnes'ion whether or
not the government did nit disregard its
contract stiiered into io se.ure the surren
der of an armed etieiuy
The recent diore* of Ihe Juartx Govern
ment, uteLriug forfeited the grant to the
Louisiana company by Maximtliau fur a
railroad across I'uhauntepee, and granting
like grants to the Trans t Company has at
tracted much attention, e-pvctally from tbe
fact that Caleb Cushing has given an opin
ion in favor of the latter, regarding the ao
lion of Juarez as final and Conclusive.
Montreal, Deo. 10.—The members of
the Executive Council, excepting Dr. Archv
Meshee, left for Ottawa this morning. They

the Fenians menace Canada with another
invasion.

ing -n his back, good shoes on his test, a
heart as lig'it amt I appy as the lark, and
making the welkin ring with his merry
songs. When the day's work was over, he
“laid down the shovel and the hoe,” went to
bis comlbrtable log cabin, ate the wholesome
supper furnished by bis kind old master,
and then lighted his pipe, took down his
bat-jo and played, sung arid danced until
ihe Dell rang for him to go to bed. Good,
kind old master, furnished bint with every
tiling necessary (or his comfort, and as lie
had no cares, lie could sleep soundly.—
“Alas !be cannot sing and dance with the

furnish him with food and raiment. No
kind mistress io take care of him when he
gets sick. No comfortable cabin to live in.
No thick clothing to shield him from the

so heavy he cannot sing and danco. Can
