French Atrocities In Mexico.
It will be remembered tuat before Maximi
X.IAH went to Mexico t assume supreme au
thority thcro, he and his allies tried to make
the world believe that he was going to relieve
the Mexican people from a stat of intolera
ble anarchy, and at their invitation. Ia order
to anticipate any poss'ble question of ttaa
solidity of this pretension, especially by the
United States, a Mexican delegation waitod
. upon him in Europe, and assured him in ad
dresses, at erwards published, that they were
', commissioned by a competent number of their
Countrymen to express their desire to change
the constitution of their Government from
. that of a republic to a monarchy, and to ten
der to him the position of imperial bead of
' the administration. In all this there was a well-
8 udied bit of diplomatic cunainsf. The right
f a people to freely alter their political Instl-
tutions, and substitute others deemed more
suitable to their condition, and likely to pro
' mote their social happiness, Is very generally
recognized by all civilized nations, and is ex
" pressly avowed in our own Declaration of
. Independence. If, therefore, it could be es
tablished that the present Government in
Mexico, or what is claimed to be the Govern
- ment, is the resnlt of the voluntary choice of
a majority of the Mexican people, minifeste J
: in some regular and authoritative manner,
no foreign power would be justified in inter
fering in the matter.
It has, however, long been sufficiently appa
rent that Maximilian's rule is a flagrant
Usurpation, which has been steadily resisted
by the Liberalists ia that unhappy country up
to this time; and that France and Austria are
employing their military power to destroy a
sitter republic immediately adjoiniug the
United States, and whose people have con
tinually appealed to us to aid fiem in their
'efforts to defend and preserve their civil lib?r
ties and national independence. There can
be r.0 doubt that this Government, under the
OQtual circumstances of the case, has a clear
right, on every principle of law, policy, and hu
manity, to intervene in these Mexican trou
bles ; and it is more than probable that the Eu
ropean powers aresornewhit amazed to find
that we are permitting that to be done, right
On our own borders, which we long ao de
clared, in the enunciation of what is known
as the Monroe doctrine," should not bo
done with our consent anywhere on this con
tinent. While, however, the Washington
Administration was enpagod in putting down
a formidable Rebellion at homa, it was not
altogether convenient to interfere in bshalf of
Mexico, nor are our internal affairs even yet
so completely and permanently settled as to
make it expedient for us to rush with unneces
inry impatience into a foreign war.
Nevertheless, if we mean to help Mexico in
her struggle at all, the execution ot that pur
pose cannot safely fce much longer delayed.
We w ant no stronger evidence not only that
th e Austro-French alliance are waging in
Mexico a war of subjugation, but are waging
It also with a barbarity that is violative of all
the rules of Christian warfare, is needed than
the news now reaching this country from the
ecete of the conflict. A private letter just re
ceived from an American citizen of high Intelli
gence and respectability, now in Mexico, and
rrom which we are allowed to make the fol
lowing extract, says: "This country is get-'
ting rapidly into a most horrible state. Tb.3
French have taught this people how to be
Bavage, and to disregard human Ufa entirely.
The daily sight of scores of Liberals led out
to be shot ; the torture to which they are ,
subjected before execution ; and the absolute
disregaid to all considerations of justice or
humanity, are circumstances that are rapidly
producing their legitimate effect on all classes,1
destroying in them those amiable and humane
qualities which ever distinguished the Mexl-'
can race, and which even made their civil con-'
tesi s comparatively bloodless. Times are sadly
changed within two years. The Mexican of
to-day scarcely at all resembles the Mexican
I knew three years ago. Guerrillas formerly
summoned to suriendcr before firing. Now
they have adopted the French plan of butcher
ing first, and inquiring afterwards. You
have read the account of the takin" of Baz-
dad. Compared with what passes here, that
was .plvilized warfare. I am excessively
anxious and impatient t be ofl'."J
The above is fully confirmed by a corres
pondent of a New York contemporary, who
in a late letter says :
"If the coimtryis lobe Riven up peaceably,
hor happened it that uie French military com
mander permitted liberal Mexicans to be driven
like beasts, bound with piooes of rope, through
the streets ot Vera Crna but a lew days past
and at the earae time that ttioy were puardei
by soldiers la the French service, oarryiua arms
"With fixed bajoueta and loaded? The Mexicans
were bound with cords, not particularly to pre
vent them from cscapiue, but as a marie ot dig.
grace. The object in binding them and driving
them through the itreets wan to hold the natives
of Liberh! propensities ander tho terror of oeinir
eventually reduced to the same situation. Im
mediately alter wards tkese men were sentenced
to be shot, their crima being that two of the
party were taken while trying to capture a rail
road train, being soldiers in the Liberal army,
and that the rest were members of a Liberal
armed lorce of the regular republican army.
Civilized nations hurry otf missionaries to the
Feeiee Islands to try and convert the sava?e
there, but tbev had better first send their mis
8 marten to this part, and to the court 'of Maxi
milian, to convert the savages in Mexico."
Testimony of this kind is enough to pre-
yoke the earnest protest of every Just and
lipuaue people ia the world ; aud this nation
THE, DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PillLADELl'IIIA, MONDAY,
will be eternally dipgraccd 11 it much longer
sits still, and candtlons by its inaction, an
attempt to fasten the yoke of despotism on
the necks ol a free people by such an exercise
of military force as is positively shocking to
the sensibilities of thl3 enlightened age. And
these atrocities are practised, too, under the
direct auspices and by the troops of two
foreign monarchies whose ministers are resi
dent at Washington, la order to maintain and
establish In Mexico a revolutionary authority
which tho United States have thus far refused
to acknowledge.
Surely it Is nearly time that Congress and
tho Executive were taking some decidod
steps to interpose in defense of popular kov
ernment in Mexico, and rescue its abused and
oppressed people from outrages that are un
known to legitimate warfare. The "Monroe
doctrh e," again reaffirmed by the late Ite
publican Convention at Ilarrisburg, certainly
commands tho approbation of the whole Ame
rican ; people and if ever thcro was a case
clearly and urgently calling for its vigorous
and complete vindication by tho United
States, that case is indisputably presented in
the existing condition of the Mexican He
public. .
The Ilcceptlon ol Mr. Bancroft's Oration
Abroad.
By the last steamer from Europe we have tho
utterances of the London Times on the eulo
gistic oration of lion. Geobqb Bancroft.
At the tone adopted by the leading organ of
British sentiment we cannot express the least
indignation or surprise. Our own opinion of
the address we lrecly stated on the day of its
delivery. It was anything but a eulogy on
the life and character of Mr. Lincoln. The
speaker exposed himself to the just criticism
of foreign and home Journals by the desul
tory character of his harangue and the over
comprehensiveness of bis plan of action. We
cannot be either astonished. or offended when
the Times pertinently asks, " What had the
tenure of land in Great Britain, or the occu
pation by this country of the Asiatic forts, to
do with the birthday of Mr. Lincoln ?" , If
it suited Mr. Bancroft to expose so salient
a point for attack, it1 docs not behoove
us to be angry when an enemy selects that as
the point ot assault.
Again, in regard to. tho tone adopted by
the speaker in his criticisms on England, that
great organ of English nationality only speala
with justice.' . It sneers at the "taste which
could invito a British minister and his suite
in order to Inflict on them a coarse invective ;w
and says with frankness, "We can well under
stand that there are many among the Ameri
cans themselves who were shocked by such
indecenay." While we do not take the least
offense or express the least surprise at the
editorial of tho Times, for no other courie
was with honor open to it, yet at the same
t'nie wo would call attention to a grave
wrong it has done our people in asserting
that the British Minister was invited only to
be Insulted. Tho manner in which such in
vitation was issued precluded such a supposi
tion. A committee of the two Houses of Con
gress had the matter in charge. They knew
nothing of the contents of the address to
be delivered, nor were they aware of any in
tended attack on foreign powers. In fact, the
character of tho address naturally led them to
think that only a biographical eulogy of the
late President was intended. They therefore
requested the attendance of all the foreign
legations. Even had they known of the forth
coming attack on Great Britain, they could
not have acted otherwise than they did.
What an insult it would have been esteemed
lor the ministers of tho various European
powers to be invited, and the representative
of Great Britain omitted I We think, there
fore, had the Time taken this into considera
tion, it would not have asserted that Sir
F. Bbuck was invited in order to be grossly
insulted. We cannot, however, see any cause
for indignation at the Times' article. It is but
the offended utterance of an insulted nation,'
and however just the castigatlon Inflicted
might be, it would have been dishonorable,
had it received It other tnan it dig. ;
Malloby Released, On Friday after-;
noon, in accordance with orders from Wash-,
ington, S. It. Malloby, ex-Secretary of the'
Confederate Navy, was released from Fort
Lafayette. lie has been in falling health for
some time, and it is understood that he was
released in consequence of representations by
ph5sicians that a prolonged confinement1
would prove fatal. He will join his lamllyi
which has been residing for some time in Con
necticut Mr. Mallohy's public carreer has been a
comparatively short, and by no means particu
larly brilliant one. Entering tho United
States Senate ia lS51,heheld for ten years
the seat of Senator from Florida, and at the
outbreak of the Rebellion identified himself
with the Itebcl cause, and become lis Secre
tary of the Navy. We do not know how
much is due to him of the millions of dol
lars wasted and hundreds of vessels destroyed
by privateers j but, a3 the prl&teers generally
sailed with some instructions, it is not un
likely that his agency in the matter was con
fined to signing letters of marque and en
deavoring to protect from the gallows those
whom it could legally claim as its own. We
hope' that he has ' learned wisdom in solitude,
and will come out of his . prison a loyal and
wiser man, , Mr. Malloby lfl the last of all
the State captives confined within the walls
of Fort Lafayette. :' , ' ; -' '' ' i
Only a fevr Stata prisoners now, remain
confined, and these will probably be soon dis
posed of, either by trial or pardon. . Of all the

on the application ot the English Bible Society
lor a set ol plates lor the Arnoic Bible now belug

MISSION AMOKO TOE INDIANS OP HUDSON" BIT.
Rev. James Ilorden. of tho Church Missionary
Society, has returned home to KneUud alter
lnboriuff fourteen years among the Indian on
the shores of James Bay. When he nrst went
among them they were a poor debased people,
not one nomcr auie to read; po there is scarcely
a tamily of Indians connected with his station at
MooBe Fort, of whom some one or more are not
now able to read. In some lamilios the whole
ore able to read fluently and write neatly. There
are about on hundred and twenty altosether
who can speak English. Mr. Ilorden relates the
e'reumstances of several recent happy deaths

good done by the poppel.
EFFECT OP THE LAW OP CIVIL MARRIAQB IN ITALT.
An lnlercstincr case has occurred at Naples, iu
connection with tho new law of civil marriRs;e.
A priest recently preented himself at thootlicn
of the Civil Registrar, provided with all tho
papers necessary lor marriage, and wishing to
be i tilted to a Neapolitan lady. Tbe case was
referred to a higher court, and it was decided
that as the civil code neither explicitly ner im
plicitly made any restriction as regarded per
sons Donna Dy ecclesiastical vows, tho Driest had
a richt to marry like any other citizen. Ac-
cordinply Pasquale do Francesco was married
on tbe z'Jin ot January last. i
HEBREW BIBLE SOCIETY".
Mr. Bliss, the commissioner of the American
Bible Society for the Turkish empire, in a recent
letter trom Constantinople, relates the following
instructive incident:
"A Jewi.-h rabci of Nicodemla seein?, some
time Bince, that the young men of hn Hock were
inclined to spend their Sabbath (Saturday) wan
dering about the town, idling away their tima,
and in danper from such dissipation, proposed to
them to come ta his house and study the Old

they now meet every Saturday for this purpose,
uslna the presnt edition of tho llcbrow Spanish
Old Testament. , He proposed that each young
