ton HON HERALD, _ S H ium DB. ■ HUTDNII. Itlftll. OKIFFIN. OA.. I* K•_ It. !t«« 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. [communicated.] 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. J. W. S. MITCUKLL. 1 C. PekpMlS, j- Com. A D. NL’nnallY. L Telegraphic News. 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 positively assert that the reprieve granted to the Fenians ia not accompanied with any hope for their ultimate pardon so long as the Fenians menace Canada with another invasion.

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 «au»e z-ist” now.
