j Mexico— The Tehuantepec Question Settled. New Orleans, Feb. 21, P. M. ■\fr Albert Spicer arrived here to day in the 4 lbalros, from Vera Cruz. Mr. Spicer left the t of Mexico on the 11th inst., with dispatch cl y or Washington. He also brings the Tehu t nee contract, which has been awarded to V. G. Sloo, three hundred thousand dollars iiavin ,r been paid the Mexican Government. — Commissioners had left the Isthmus to deliver Road to Mr. Sloo. Commissioners had al o been appointed to treat with the American Minister relative to the neutrality laws and the protection of the Isthmus. The Mexican Roundary Commissioners also urived in the Albatros. They are en route for Metamoras to meet the American Commis sioners. ‘(’be Telegraphic Line between Vera Cruz and the City of Mexico, was continually inter rupted by the disaffected among the commu nity. . The Government had experienced another I c hange, Ceballos having resigned, and been -Aceeded by Lambarding, who was to serve as Ifrfcidont until a popular election took place.— ’ praga had arrived in the City of Mexico, but took no active part in political movements. It is believed, however, that he will declare him self Dictator when his troops arrive. Another Commissioner had left Vera Crue on the, Ist jnst., to visit Santa Anna and request his re turn, and Puebla and Vera Cruz had pronounced against his restoration to power. Commercial affairs had declined, and business was much de pressed. The Marriage of Col. May. A New York correspondent of the Albany I Express, referring to the marriage of Col. I Charles May, U. S. Army, to Miss Josephine I Law, daughter of George Law, Esq., the steam- I ship millionaire, says : “The nuptials were celebrated in solemn grandeur at the Dutch Reformed Church on 21st street, at 7 o’clock, P. at 9 o’clock the bride and bridegroom were received at the man sion of Mr. Law, on sth avenue, by the compa ny/nvited to participate in the festivities. The bride was arrayed in a splendid white satin dress, covered with rich Mechlin lace, the cost of which, independent of jewels, was 81,500. The company, numbering four hundred, were welcom ed at Mr. Law’s hospitable mansion by the soul stirring music of the Governor’s Island band.— At 10 o’clock, Munck’s celebrated artists gave the signal for the merry dance, which was hear tily responded to, and continued till supper time. The tables were laden with the choicest game, the finest wines, and all the delicacies which the imagination can conjecture. After supper, danc ing was resumed. The company comprised the wealthiest and most respectable of our citizens, and the display of beauty and of riches would seem incredible.” (£tTiie ulack dress coat is doomed. An ukase of His Imperial Highness, Napoleon 111. has banished it from the saloons of Paris—and Paris gives the vogue to all the world, we y soon see it disappear from this Western lisphere. Its successor is a blue velvet, ’ single-breasted, standing collar, steel buttons, braided and gilt. ‘Ttie-o'ld black was a very un pretending garment —and as it would last indefi nitely for parties, it was cheap—very cheap, compared with its more conspicuous successor. It has had a pretty long reign—surveying some half-dozen French dynasties, and yet the Paris writers deplore its demise. They fear that the gentlemen, in adopting the style of glaring cob ors and decorated dress, will eclipse the ladies, or torce them to resort to ruinous extravagance to maintain their superiority. Railroads. —Extension of the South-Western i Rail Road.— The Engineers are now actively engaged in surveying a route from Oglethorpe to Americus. They have passed over one of the proposed lines, and find the distance to be nine- j teen and a half miles. They are now on a sec- j ond route, and will probably survey a third, when one of them wilt be selected. The pros- ; pects are highly favorable for the early comple- I tion of this road. All the stock required to be j by the citizens of Sumter, has been sub- j scribed for, and the first instalment paid in. The terminus of this road, must, for some i time, remain at Americus, which is now a flour ishing village. Owing to its established char acter for health, handsome location, and the high reputation of its inhabitants, it will be re sorted to as a place of residence for many weal thy planters residing in less favored sections; and we would not be surpiised if it should, in a few years, be equal in business and population to any other town in South-Western Georgia.— Jour. (Sf Mess. A Lilcralist. — Ihe Bishop of Oxford, having sent round to the churchwardens in his diocese j circular of inquiries, among which was : “Docs vour officiating clergyman preach the 1 Gospel, and is his conversation and carriage consistent there with V’ The churchwardens near Wallington replied : “He preaches the Gospel, but does not keep a can-iaefe.’’ Affray. A difficulty took place in our streets on Saturday evening, between Hiram Woodall and a man named Rymes. Both were badly gabbed. They now lie in jail. We have not how seriously they are injured, but do >ot think either will die.— Federal Union.
