Gkn. Albert Pike has recovered from Mexico $50,000 in gold for the families of Generals Parsons ami Staudlsh. These Generals were cx- Confederatcs in the sorvloeof Mexico, and fell by the hands of guerrllas. Tun Columbia, Tennessee, Herald says that General Marcus J. Wright, who has been appointed by the Khe dive of Egypt, Adjutant General of his army, is in that city. General \\. is considering the acceptance of the appointment. The salary is *6,(ion a year. London and Berlin seem to have fallen under a strange religious influ ence. Crowded revival meetings are held every day, and at one of them, where Mr. Moody preached, there was great enthusiasm. Mr. Smith seems to be doing good work in Ber lin. It is odd that tho conversion of j London should be the inspiration of an American clergyman. South Carolina has, for years, been the subject of u system of robbery and profligacy which lias cost the ] people millions upon millions, aad which the honest and self-respecting J minority wore powerless to arrest or avert. Gov. Chamberlain is making splendid efforts to retrieve the losses Inflicted on Mouth Carolina by those miscreants, Scott, Mooes, ami their followers. New Orleans is moving to estab lish direct railway connection with Texas, and thus revive her commerce, as will bo seen from the following clipped from the IJulletin: “An net will be introduced into the Legisla ture, at tho extra session, to incor porate tho Louisiana Pacific Railway Company, tho object of which is to push forward speedily a road from New Orleans to Shreveport, through the richest portion of the State, which ; will place us within twenty-four hours of Balias, Texas, and tap tho Great Northern, the International and the Texas Pacific roads." The New York j fSxprem says tho recent French war cost, in ten months, $1,857,77(5,400, or two-thirds of the United States debt. Specie payments were suspended. Novem ber 13, 1873, the paper circulation of tile Bank of France was $602,000,000, or '34 per cent. December loth the circulation was $509,500,000, and tho currency reserve $2(54,000,000, or more j ttiau 52 per cent., and the country in a safo condition to resume specie payments, while, with ten years ef peace, the United States are nearly as deep In financial difficulties as in 1865. The advocates of tho Civil Bights bill maintained that it was designed to secure a certain class of the people in the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. They rarely presumed to discuss it as a measure which might only benefit one class at the expense of another. But this is exactly the point of view from which the English papers look at the whole subject. Tho Fall Mall dinette S ays the-bill is really an abridgement of liberty; and, to give a correct con ception of its practical oimration, im agines the passage of an act, of Par liament which should secure to the castor-mongers of Covent Garden tho right to occupy stalls in tho adjoin ing opera house in their shirtsleeves. It adds that “neither in the career of Prince Bismarck nor in all the an nals of tyranny is there a passage to be compared to the enactment’’ of this bill, i'tt-npe ration. The rise in wheat, will give $5,000,- 000 more into the hands of the mid dlemen. Like tin* Southern cotton planter, tho Western farmer is forced to surrender his crop as soon as made, thus surely enriching the non producer and speculative middlemen. If the Grangers wore out of debt they could accomplish n groat deal. Until they get out of debt and have surplus capital they can accomplish nothing. Co-operative associations have been very successful in Eng land. The annual congress of the co-operative societies of England, which recently met at Liverpool, in its published report, gives the mem bership of the various organizations scattered throughout the Kingdom at 400,Otxi. They control over sixty mills, with a capital of $18,000,000, besides operating an immense num ber of stores, markets, &c. It is es timated that the profits resulting to those Interested in the combination amounted last year to over $7,000,- 000. In Philadelphia, through the building associations, $150,000,000 of wages have la-cn transformed into capital, and four-fifths of the me chanics arc real estate owners. In Hanover agricultural associations form agricultural laws. In one year (1863) they transformed tho mode of cultivation of 771 farms situated in 303 communes. If the “Grange” organization can remain intact until tho Grangers got out of debt, old prosperity will return, and bankers will be glad to got deposits from planters, Jind merchants to bofrow from them HEX ICO. It Is by no moans certain that our present peaceful relations with Mex ico will be continued indefinitely. The English Government sent Sir Garnet Wolsey to Africa to protect a British subject, nnd no country in Christendom dare oppress a Briton. Had the Presbyterian Mission estab lished ut Acapulco, Mexico, been un der British auspices, tho massacre of the congregation in January last by Infuriated fanatics, inspired by the Catholic priest, would have been avenged or investigated ere now. An American clergyman has been ban ished from Mexico, his congregation butchered, and nothing bus been done by tho Mexican Government to punish the murderers. Were Mr. Hutchinson, tho minister, a South erner, we should not hoi*' for the protection of Grant’s Government; hut Mr. Hutchinson is a Northern man -lienee we look for action. The ease demands severe investigation; yet we should form no hasty judg ment. The Mexican people arc but little understood by our people. They murdered the grandly good noble man, Maximilian, it is true; but who knows what were the leading causes of this crime against civil ization V We have good reason for believing that Bazaine and his ready tools turned popular hatred against Maximilian ; yet there are no official documents to prove this. It is related J that a y oung man, of the noblest Mexican class the Castillanos was j arrested as a conspirator. He was condemned to be executed three days ! after he was sentenced. When the. Emperor Maximilian entered his; office, in the City of Mexico, the next j day, a deputation of leading citizens, headed by the Alcazar, petitioned in ids behalf. The Emperor, ever prone \ to leniency, agreed to give them a reply early the next day--and it was j generally understood that a pardon would be granted. Two days were to intervene before tho condemned youth was to be executed. Bazaine, without orders from tho Emperor, had the young nobleman executed that night. Ambition was supposed ; to be his motive, as a regiment under j his orders were allowed to plunder ' ami pillage tho people indiscrimi nately, that opposition to the Empire should ensue. The Emperor deeply regretted the execution of the young man. The populace, including his strongest adherents, deserted him and cursed him forßazaine’s cruelty. May not some such treachery or per secution have caused the massacre at Acapulco ? Let u searching investi gation be had before action is decided j upon. As there is some possibility of a war between the United States and Mexico, wo give below some facts connected with that interesting country: The area of Mexico is 773,144 square miles. The population in 186!) was 9,089,254. Tlte length of the republic is 2,000 miles; its breadth 1,100 miles, There is 1,600 miles of const on the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea, and extending upwards of 4,2(ki miles on tho Pacific Ocean and tile Gulf of California. The climate de pends less upon latitude than upon altitude. In the cold regions ( tierras frias) on the hills are trees that never lose their foliage; in the hot eoun-! tries (derma ealie.ntes) are groves of mimosas, palms nnd other gigantic tropical plants; in the temperate re gions (tierras tetnpladas) are the enor mous haciendas, and in these regions are found all the great centres of population. Cotton, in the hot coun tries, is a perennial plant, and there being no frost, it propagates itself, and tho laborers are only required to keep the fields free of useless vegeta tion. Yet there are only 25,000 bales of cotton, of 400 pounds each, grown in Mexico. .1 large quantity <>/' < niton in the raw state is annually imjxarteil. Tho number of landed estates is 13,- (XX), valued at s72o,(xx),oixi ; and town ! property is valued at $635,000,9m making the total value of real estate 1 $1,855,000, (XX), or an average .-f $ 1 •_! 5o | per head. As to education, there i j one pupil to every 32.78 of the popu ! Bit ion. The public debt amounted, iin 1869, to $317,357,250. The mining and coinage of the precious metals i the etiief industry. In 1805, $27,000,- o(>n were coined. In 1856 ’57, the amount of coin in circulation in Mex ico exceeded $100,000,000. The legal exportation of specie iu 1856 amount ed to $16,479,013. The commerce with England amounts to more than half the foreign trade. English rails and English ears on the railroads. There are 2, (XX) miles of telegraph and 240 of railroad in operation. Petroleum abounds. Manufacturers are increas ing in wealth. There are twenty throe States, one Federal District, and one Territory. Its snow-clad peaks and fertile valleys are not sur passed even by those of Switzerland. The City of Mexico is situated in the Plain of Tenoohtitlan, at an elevation of 4,000 feet above the sea. Popocat epetl, with the Peaks of.lztaeeihuati, united by a chain of smaller volca noes, forms a volcanic arch around Mexico and its lake. No one who has ever seen this landscape can ever forgot it.

For a long tlmo this place has been shut off from Columbus and her peo ple, but now there are good mail fa | (dllties nnd the people of Buena Vista ! and tlie lower part of Marion will hasten to renew their business and j Hoeial acquaintance with Columbus, j if any inducement is presented. ■ Buena Vista looks pretty much as ' we expected to find it, and during j court presents n lively appearance. 1 When we arrived court was not in session, but in a short while Judge Johnson put in liis appeurnnee, and soon tlie court was organized for i business. Among the lawyers pres- j ent were the local bar,Gen. Phil Cook mid Col. Guerry from Americas, Col. I M. 11. Blnndford, Solicitor General Little, Col. Ingram and Cary J. j Thornton, Esq., from Columbus, und j Col. Bussey from Chattahoochee. The session promises to bo uninter esting und very short. Litigation seems to be at a stand-still in this county, which argues well for tlie peace and harmony of the people, but is not at all refreshing to tlie lawyers. While on the subject,, we will mention the new court that has j been provided for this county by the j ; last Legislature, it is it court similar jto Muscogee County Court, and is I called the Marion Couuty Court. Gov. Smith lias made an excellent I and well merited appointment In the j j selection of Col. W. Butt as Judge. He is a good lawyer, arid hisappoint- j meat has met the approval of all classes of tho citizens of the county. Mr. Carr, a rising and popular young lawyer, has received the appointment | of solicitor to that court. List week Buena Vista caught the [ contagious B, anil tho people in and ! around town turned out en masse to hear a spoiling match between Col. Edgar Butts’ and Judge W. B. Butts’ classes of selected spellers. The words were hard and the contest warm, Both leaders fell by the way side, but, Col. Edgar Butts’class came off victorious, after n hard fought battle. We talked with many of the farm ers of Marion, and learned from them that their crops were in good condi tion, and far advanced. Marion county is out of debt, with money in her treasury. Her people are thrifty and good farmers. We doubt if there is a county in tho State in which there were fewer crop liens recorded against the farmers than iu this county. Tlie roads are in good con dition, and ns far as the eye could reach, corn was planted and growing finely. Cotton is a secondary consid eration with them, and from all ap pearances they are preparing to live at home. They have fat hogs and cattle, sugar cane and rice patches, good gardens and a large area planted in oats, wheat and rye. The mer chants of Columbus would do well to solicit and seek this trade. Macon is making great strides towards con trolling it, and already a majority of tlie people about Buena Vista seek the Macon market, With a little effort the trade might be again turned to Columbus, for the people naturally like Columbus and tier people. In another letter we will try and give an idea of the diversified crops of Marion and the different industries the pie are encouraging, In haste, W. 6|iilm I uoitoriiet !|-**> ( ii'liMlo/ Geneva, 4 v., April 20, 1875. Editors: Since the first day-spring | oil high the world has been vexed with certain problems, which, des -1 pite its best efforts, it ever terminates ; in apology for its iusipienoe by the | mot hearty resolves that they are j insolvable; and I fear me, that tlie i present attempt to determine the | true status of the several parties par ticipant in the Plymouth Church ■ scandal will not fail of a like misenr | riage. When we consider at olio and the same time such factors as tlie poetic insolence, educated idiotcy and out ! raged cupidity of Theodore; the re -1 tieent and fitful inwardness of Eliza beth ; the unkempt integrity of plueky but spurious Bessie; the fond terms of endearment blurted by Mother Morse upon her surreptitious son; and these all, in haughty and wanton association with the Great High Priest of Puritanism, we have fallen upon a problem in integral calculus with far more variabl. - than can lie formulated within the present limits of transcendentalism. The parties themselves have ex plained. without making anything | clear; Lady Woodhull. who is noth j mg, if not a eonnoismir in shame, has plied her practical hand only to in crease our doubts; the firm of Moul ton and wife have sworn a great oath J and are met with ready rebuttal; and lastly, a Brooklyn court, by authori ty, issues a bric-a'brac edition, which | only increases the confusion. Not I yet is tiie world a steward of the mys | tery. As to the crime of which Mr. Beecher stands accused we neither I affirm his guilt nor assert his inno cence; nor do we confess to a bias j that would scoff at the one or palliate | the other, but we insist that as he I greatly differs from other men, so he should be differently adjudged. De scended from a line illustrious in the priesthood; himself one of six broth ers, each and all of whom are bish ops, wo easily discover cause and every attendant circumstance to com pel in him morality, and even piety that might come of spontaniety. With his natural propensity for good, quickened into activity by the adop | tiou of his profession, and his miuis | try hallowed with renown for hitn | self and power for his church without example on our continent, we easily j conceive that he was as naturally and | surely born into the moral vineyard jag in tho pious State of Connecticut, I Then wherefore and whyfore does lie ! stand forth accused of a moral ob- I liquity so shameful in aspect, that he j should gladly cremate his splendid reputation and eagerly betake him i self for refugo to the innermost ro ! cess of obscurity? Guilty or inno cent, how was it when society showed him its favorites in their best phase, that he otiose for his Intimates such as had been publicly condemned, und be must now aver have most solemn ly foresworn themselves? Can one of the brightest intellects and most ixjpuliir divines of our times be so distraught for acquittal from the gravest charge that could afflict him, that he can only plead witli poor Tray that he hns been caught with bad company? Had flattery so pos sessed him, that he permitted the bare statement of a knave to thoroughly dement him with the idea that the comeliness of three-score—on pastor al errands only had estranged the affections of a wife of thirty-five, and caused him drivellingly to pursue Til ton with explanations; Moulton witli beseeching*, nnd Woodhull, of bless ed memory, with conciliations? If, of such base mental greatness lie made, in the name of all that is sacred, let us moderate our ambitions; if mar tyrdom, for conscience sake, can fur nish no better exemplar of Puritan Christianity, in the name of nil that is holy, let us no longer waste our selves witli regrets that we cannot trace our ancestry to tho persecuted of the Mayflower. After so much bad "action,” others than Demosthenes, would recommend that lie now act well. We opine lie has fearfully misconstrued the old motto omnia luma bonis. The contemplation, from a South ern stand point, of a man filling a court-room with scandal during the week, and the church with religious zeal on Sunday—alike the wolf and the shepherd of the same flock is so bewildering, that we can make but a feeble attempt to elucidate it, un less we conclude that we differ from our Northern neighbors not less in proprieties and religion than in cus toms and conduct. Perhaps the so-called Boceherism is but Yankeeism relined, after all, and wo can better preserve our inno cence bv amusing ourselves with spell ing bee’s than by taking an undue in terest in Plymouth affairs.

They may lie fairly considered almost parallel in their necessities. Even if measured by the growth of the country, which has been as a pretext to extenuate these huge expenditures, there is nothing in that fact which can possi j bly justify the disproportionate in i crease. A largo part, of the army has been I stationed during these five years in the Southern States to serve partizan : demands only. Placed in defiance of all precedent and propriety under tlie orders of an unscrupulous Attur i ney General, the troops of the United j States have been converted into In i struments nnd agents of corrupt and j infamous deputy marsals, notoriously j hired to fabricate outrages and to persecute innocent men with false | charges, supported by flagrant per i jury, for political consumption in tlie North.
