Pacific States, and has led to correspon
dence between the General and Mr.
; Godoy, President Juarez's Consul in
j San Francisco. The Consul prays for
! a withdrawal of the order, maintain
ing that it must work entirely in favor
of the imperialists, as they hold all the
Pacific seaports and as shipments of
; arms by sea are not forbidden. Gener
al McDowell, in his reply, states that
the shipments by sea as well as by land
are intended by his order to lie prohib
ited, and that instructions to this effect
have been given by him to the San
Francisco Collector, lie also regrets
that his official duties require him to
pursue a course which is thought by
the Consul to be inimical to the repub-
lican cause in Mexico, which he says
has his warmest sympathies, and he
adds that it is with pain he replies that
he cannot withdraw the order alluded
to.
Two men on a raft were recently dis

their party of fourteen who escaped
from the steamship Republic, sunk on

companions having either been wash

It will be remembered that four boats
and a raft put off from the Republic.
Three of the boats have been heard
from, all those 011 board of them hav

SOME recent English statistics are in
structive to the friends of temperance.
In the last twelve years the consump
tion of beer and wine has increased
more rapidly than in proportion to the
population, while the consumption of
distilled spirits has largely fallen off,
showing that the slightly exhilarating
liquors are superseding those more de
cidedly intoxicating. And the change
is more perceptible in the improvement
of the public morals, and the decrease
in drunkenness. Even in Ireland, beer
is supplanting the terrible whisky and
shindies and broken heads are getting
to be strangely uncommon.

The New York Commercial calls at
tention to certain sentiments uttered by
Gen. Logan, the newly appointed Min
ister to the Mexican Republic, as indi
cating the policy he is likely to pursue.
In the public reception accorded to our
Generals at Cooper Institute on the 7th
of June, General Logan said:
"The little gentleman in Mexico
ought to lie notified some morning very
early, just before breakfast, that it will
be equally as pleasant to the people of
the United State> if he would retire a
little further than that country. But
in speaking of Mexico, I do not want
you to understand that it is my desire
in any way to encourage what is known
here as an emigrant society to Mexico.
If we in the United States do not want
Maximillian to remain in Mexico, in
God's name let us have nerve and man
liness to tay, 'Sir, you have got to get
out of here."
Again, in his Brooklyn speech, on
the 3d inst., Gen. Logan said if he were
President, he "would order the French
out of Mexico in a hurry, and he be
lieved they would go."
THE CHOLERA IN EUROPE.—The U
nited States Government is kept fully
advised on the subject of the cholera
abroad, through its consuls. The latest
dispatches show that the epidemic is
disappearing from Palermo, where it
has been more virulent than at any
other place on the Mediterranean. The
disease is evidently now going inland
and spreading over the Peninsula. It
has crossed the frontiers of Spain and
passed into Portugal. The cholera has
completely ceased at Constantinople,
also at Galatz and other parts of the
United Principalities of Moldavia and
Wallaehia.
A correspondent of the New York
Journal of Commerce writes from Jack
sonville, Florida, October 30th :
"There is a large negro garrison here,
and yesterday there was a tremendous
riot, during which several of the officers
and men were killed and wounded, the
officers shooting the men, and the men
officers. < >ne of the negro soldiers was
undergoinga certain punishment, when
he was rescued by his comrades, and
in the attempt to force order by the of
ficers the riot originated.
THE MINISTER TO MEXICO.—The
French Courrier, at New York, affects
to be indignant at the appointment of
General Logan as United .States Minis
ter to the Republic of Mexico, and pro
nounces it a "provocation." It adds
in substance, that the French troops
now will not leave Mexico. France is
allied with Mexico, now, right or wrong
and will maintain the alliance. — Balti

More Indian Atrocitie*.
From the ('o/orado Mew*, November 2.
We have the particulars of another
horrid Indian massacre last Saturday,
from Mr. William Fulton, a passenger
by to-day's stage. .V large train was
j attacked near Alkali Station and eight
i or nine wagons cut off, set on fire and
the cattle hamstrung and left attached
to the burning wagons. A detachment
sent out from Alkali found the bodies
; of four men murdered, two of which
were burned in a frightful manner.—
The names of the victims are Mr. Gar
ten, who was the owner of the train,
' his son, Mr. Gaskell, and Mr. Selby,
' and there was one man missing, whose
! name our informant did not learn. —
There were about sixty or seventy-five
Indians in theparty, about half of whom
! made the attack, coming from a wil
' low-covered island in the Platte. Mr.
| Fulton got the above particulars from
Charley Gilman, well known in the
| mountains, who was witli the wagons
next in advance of those cut off, and
narrowly escaped with his life. Mr.
i Fulton saw the bodies of the murdered
men, and the wagons were still burning
when he arrived with the detachment
| from Alkali.

Just after we had reached Pole Creek

Extensive Frauds in the Oil Kcj^lun**.
PITIIOLE, Pa., Nov. 17 —Within the
past few days the Government officials
have brought to light facts which show
the most extensive frauds against the
Internal Revenue Department. Yes
terday the officers seized wells No. 47,
f>4 and "fi, three of the largest on the j
Thomas Holmdon farm. The Govern
ment claims amount to $148,000, of
which $BB,OOO isownedbythe United
States petroleum company, and about
$BB,OOO by a large operator here, who, it
is alleged, last night made all his in
terest over to a second party.
The Government has notified the
owners of the working interest in the
wells not t<i allow any more oil to the
United States company until the claim
is paid.
There is much excitement here on
the subject, and it is feared the bottom
has not been reached.
THE leading physicians in Paris have

Nniridr of Preston Kins-
It is now well ascertained that the
first report regarding the suicide of
Preston King, Collector of the Port of
New York, is but too true. In order to
make his death certain he purchas<*d
twenty-five pounds of shot which he
had 011 his person when he took the fa
tal plunge. In this sudden and violent
"taking off," we have another fearful
check to proud ambition, admonishing
its votaries of the uncertainty of human
possessions, and enjoyments. Mr. King
was not able for the perplexing and
multitudinous duties of his office, but
as the World properly remarked, "he
had too much pride of character to con
fess his incompetency by a timely res
ignation, and too much sterling integ
rity to allow the business of his office
to slide out of his control, he sunk un
der a burden of depressing anxieties,
till his intellect tottered and reeled from
its throne. Whether this source of
his malady was aggravated by any per
sonal difficulties connected with the ad
ministration of his office, has not trans
pired." _
HARPER'S WEEKLY, a virulent ab
olition newspaper, forgot for an instant
"loyal" interests in giving circulation
to the subjoined:
"It is becoming pretty generally
known that the place to buy clothes and
food is Canada. A coat, casting $75 in
New York, can be got In Montreal or
Toronto for $3O in gold, say $44 in cur
rency ; a suit, worth $lOO here, can be
lought there for $45, say $67 in our mon
ey ; boots, worth $lO here, can be had
there for $7, say $lO of our money; and
meat, poultry, and all kinds of produce
can be had there at 25 @ 83 per cent,
cheaper than here. The wild specula
tion in produce and merchandise which
has so long prevailed here, and has car
ried everything to far higher relative
figures than gold, has not yet penetrat
ed Canada, and smart men are making
their purchases for the winter in the
colonial towns. In the little village of
Windsor, opposite Detroit, no less than
eight large clothing stores have lately
been established, and are doing a large
business."
Our merchants are making no more
than a lair profit on their goods, proba
bly not any more than Canadian mer
chants. The difference in prices be
tween Windsor and Detroit Is directly
traceable to the tariff, which shuts out
foreign goods and gives New England
manufacturers a monopoly. For their
benefit the men are taxed in in this
country fifty per cent on their trowsers,
and the women a larger amount on their
petticoats. The cotton and woolen man
ufacturers of New England have been
declaring enormous dividends for the
past four years, and yet we are told
that a protective tariff—and protection
in their dictionary means prohibition —
must be continued until their business
is established, it is safe to say that
their rapacity has already cost the peo
ple, under the present tariff, five times
the amount of revenue which the gov
ernment has derived from its tax on ar
ticles manufactured by them. The gov
ernment has ordered six steam revenue
cutters to be employed on the lakes for
the prevention of smuggling. Consider
ing the discrepancy in prices between
the two countries, we think sixty-six
would hardly effect the purpose. We
are very sure that could a clothing store
with Windsor prices be established
within a mile of Chicago something
else than a river and a revenue cutter
and custom house official would be re
quired to prevent very many of our cit
izens from being better clothed than
they are.
THE FRF.EDMEN'S BUREAU AGENTS
IX THE SOUTH.—' The Shreveport (La.)
correspondent of the New York World
writes as follows: "As I have written
before, they assume that the 'down
trodden negro' must not only be placed
on an equality, but must have rights
which they do not concede to his for
mer master. The negro violates his
contract with impunity ; the white is
held to the very letter of it. The ex
parte testimony of the negro is accept
ed ; the testimony of the white must
be corroborated. No humiliation to
thewhitecan betoogreat. These chap
lains and teachers instruct the blacks
not to respect their former masters.
Every day from my room I can hear a
white fanatic preaching to them in
a Church, all to thissamepointandpur
pose. Our neighliorhood resounds at
all hours with the hallelujahs of their
Fetish worship, to the utter demorali
zation of good order and the negro in
particular. We already see a marked
progress toward barbarism in their su
perstitiou and Fetishism, and if this
Freedmen's Bureau is allowed to pur
sue theiravocation, God grant us a spee
dy exit from this once prosperous coun
try, which, under a wise and practical
government, would be one of the gar
