(Spain and South America.
From the IriOunt.
Spidu seems to benotyot eufllcientlr haraWed
bj bcr Ignominious defeat at Callao, but is
picking a quarrel with another of the South
Ameilcan republics. Tfo trlirates, we are In
formed by the Wrest news from Havana,' were
gong to Venezuela, to demand snttilactioft for
aome sliced wrou to the Spanish Legation in
that country. '
It is surprising that tbe Spaniards should still
fail to appreciate the effect oi their disgraceful
conduct toward South America, though all the
rest ot the world sees it. We gave in Wednes
daj's Irxbunt a not from the Government of
the Argentine Republic to that of Spain, on the
bombardment ol Valparaiso. Hitherto, the At
geutine Republic had remained neutral in tne
war between Spain and the Pacitic republics of
Sou'h Au-erWa, and had thereby given great
Olk'PRe to the Government and tbe peoples of
the allied republics. But when the news ot the
bombardment of Valparaiso reached Buenos
Ayres, public opluion strongly urged the Gv
eiDiiK'ut to join the alliance, and we learn trom
the Buenos A ups papers that the Government
would probably be compelled to abandon its
neutral policy.
The impure which the aggressive policy of
8 ain has given to the spirit ot patriotism ami
independence throughout Foutli Amorica is
unpuialleled in the history ol tnose republics.
There are now signs of progress which tne for
mr history of these countries never presented.
It becomes more and more probable that most
ot tbe republics will soon establish a confedera
tion with one central goTorumenr, which, by
tho consolidation ot all their navies, and by the
fortification of the chief seaports, will soon be
able to assume the ageresslve instead of the de
fensive. The papers of all South and Central
America vie with each other In devotion to the
"American ctuse," and public opinion is rapidly
becoming unanimous. We believe the pros
pects ot South America were neverso brilliant
as at present, and that the ere at improvement
in their situation is due chiellv to the Spanish
asgreisions which were meant to overwhelm
them.
Tbe French In Mexico.
From the Times.
Events are quietly but gradually and surely
ndicating that the reported intention of Louis
Napoleon respecting the withdrawal of French
troops from Mexico, will be carried out In good
faith. An unofficial announcement appeared
the other day that- seventy-five per cent, of the
French soldiers now in Mexioo are to be forth
with collected, In proportion, at the cities of,
Mexico, Puebla, and Orizaba, with a view to
their departure in November, and that tbe re
maining fourth will follow next spring.
A letter which we believe proceeds from a
source entitled to credence, repeats the state
ment, and mentions other e'reumttances which,
in coutuDction with tbe withdrawal of troops,
leave no room to doubt the earnestness of
the French Government. The writer inti
mates that for all practical purposes the inter
vention is now virtually ended; for tbouzh
the embarkation will not commence until
November, there is, in the meantime, to
be no further movement against the Liberals, who
may thus raessui e strength with Maximilian as
effectually as though the last French soldier had
already lelt. the soil. Besides consigning his
forces Id inactivity during the remainder of thir
stay, Napoleon i represented as having closed
his imperial purse against all demands on ac
count of Mexico.
General Bazaine appears to have violated
orders to the extent ot half a million, in c m
pllance with the supplications of Maximilian;
but the circumstances as narrated by the writer
of the letter show how sore is the strait of tbe
Emperor's exchequer, and how stringeat are the
instructions which have been received trom
Paris upon the subject.
The end, .then, apparently draweth nigh.
France will abandon an enterprise which has
bi ought nothing but embarrassment, disaster,
and humiliation to its promoters: and Maxi
milian, although doubtless hlghmiuded and
honest in his aspirations, lelt to his own re
sources, with no means to sustain bis Belgian
and Austrian soldiers, and deprived of the
prestige which : a knowledge of French protec
tion secured 10 him, will not long leave the
world in suspense as to bis course. Whether he
abdicate or not, it is evident that be will bj-and-by
be environed by such a host of troubles
that his retention ' of a crown stripped of its
glory will be extremely difficult, If aot im
possible. ...
lhui the saeracity and skill with which this
Mexican question has been managed by our
Department of State Is being conclusively
vindicated. . So tar as a ludgment can be
formed, It is clear that all which this country
ha desired is iii course ol peaceful accomplish
ment. The Intervention ot France Is to termi
nate; Maximilian is to be left to settle his
account with tbe people whom he claims as
aublects; the danger of complications involving
the United States, which was inevitable so long
as French intervention lasted, may be deeded
at an end. '
And all this has been accomplished without
any other ell or t on our part than that of diplo
macywithout compromising the rights or the
dignity of this country in any particular and
with an eilqct in Europe that cannot but 'be
favorable to the future influence of the Ameri
can peoole abroad. Will the enemies and de
tractors ol Mr. Seward be good enough to calcu
late the probable position of the Mexican ques
tion at this moment, had their reckless counsels
been followedf ' '
The Mexican Question rronunclamento
ot General Santa Anna.
from the Herald.
General Santa Anna's pronunciamento to his
countrymen brings him again prominently into
the foreground among the leading actors In
tbe Mexican drama. His objects are to define
hi" position, what it has been and what it Is; to
vindicate his public course in and out of Mexico
as that ot a faithful Mexican; to mak It known
that he has emerged from his place of exile in
older to serve the cause ot the republic, which
he first proclaimed over forty years ago, and to
do what he can to heal all dissensions aud unite
all patties among the Mexican people in the ex
pulsion oi Maximilian and his whole foreign es
tablishment Irom Mexican soil, and In the re
ebtablishmeut of the republ c "in the balls ot
tbe Montezumas."
The vindication advanced by General Santa
Anna, of his conduct in reference to the tripar
tite intervention ol England, France, and Spain
ought to be satisfactory even to his Mexican
enemies. In the matter of tbe French interven
tioahehas, In the simple fact of his expulsion
from Mexico by Marshal Buzaine, a good answer
against all who accuse htm of iundelitv to the
Republic. What other ambition than the eoad
of his country could have influenced him in
coming at this time out of St. Thomas, when all
wmi-!i uinnoij uuuors aud distinc
tions which a generous countrv could give have
over and over aealn been conferred upon him I
But there is a little Mexican clique at gashing
ton (tbe Romero-Juarez clique), and a Mexican
clique in this city, that have been raising a con-
stderable outcry against General Sauta Anna ai
a yrant, usurper, and most treacherous
Mexican.
These men have a good deal of presurapttiD :
lor as the founder of the Mexican republic Gene-
.11 IS A.nua h0". If not to tbe same extent
tt It, the relation to Mexico of Washington to tne
United States, or ot Bolivar to Colennbia. As
soldier and statonian, and even as politician. If
you phaPrSanta Anaa by all .odds pee b?en the
ablest man that Mexico 'ha ever produced of
born we know anything. Nor ao wd knqw Of
another living i Mexican whoe name and pre
tence now w oi Id be ball' so powerful, 'as his in
uniting the Mexican people and In giving systom
and ethcionc to their war anathst the "Austrian
adventurer" and hi French supporteif.
We have no doubt that In his present under
taking in behalf of the Mexican republio Gene
ra' Santa Anna has had and retains the good
wishes of the administration at Washington;
and we believe that, as tar as is compatible
with our . international bligatious, President
Johnson and the Sccreiary ol State are inclined
to aid and enrouragt bim rather than to throw..
Buy obstacles id his way. He is the man tne
Mexican people want among them at this 6nsia;
the man upon whom lor the last forty years
they have always had to 'all back after trying
this man, that man, and the other man, and all
their plans and reform to no porpoise. "
Considering the inleiior material with which
be bad to work, this Mexican veteran, Sauta
Anna, in all the qualities ol an ablo military
leader, and especially In quirk marches, strategy,
and tactics, proved himself at least a match lor
General Taylor, and no mean adversary even
of General Scott. Acalnst any other Mexican
than Santa Anna there woula have been no
glory resulting to Scott from bis grand Mexican
campaign, lor he would havo walked over the
come.
II Juarez is the senpible man his friends repre
sent h;m to be, he will lose no time in availing
himseli of the prollered services of General
Nmia Anna, and in putting bim at the head of
the aimed forces of the Mexican republic. He
can bring experience, generalship, concentra
t on, and financial and material aid to tbe re
publican cause which no other man can bring.
On the other hand, the idea that he is ambitious
to piay the usurper himself at bis time of life
maybe regarded as utterly preposterous. Re
membering the vicissitudes and trials ol the
numerous- Mexican wars and revolutions
tluough which be has passed, we can imagine
no other motive now lor his abandonment of his
comfortable West Ir.dia retreat than a dm ire,
before windine up bis earthly career, of a MUle
settlement with the French and the Austrians in
Mexico. In this view, hs a champion of the
Monroe doctrine and of the Mexican republic,
General Santa Anna, we think, is entitled to
some special recognition by the citizens of New
York who believe in the speedy and permanent
removal ot Maximilian, crown and throne, bag
and baggage, Frci.cli, Austrians, Belgians,
Tun os and all. from the soil of Mexico.
The Lower Board.
From the Independent.
Our commercial renders out in Colorado and
other remote parts ot the Uuiou must now and
then be considerably mystified by allusions in
"money articles," which arc perfectly intelligi
ble to the city readers for whom they are in
tended, but which are pure Greek to everybody
else. Ihe "Gold Room," the "Open Board,"
nnd the First, Second, and Third Boards, may
convey some tangible ideas to tl.oso who have
bad no practical experience in the Stock Ex
change, but what idea can any reader In the
old Piute region have of tbe ' Lower Board?"
We presume pone wbatever; aud, as we have
a leisure halt hour on our hands, which Is a
rather uncommon occurrence, and as . the
money market is easy, "Governments" are
urm, and "Railroads" are d ill, and we have
no "puts" to trouble us, if our country readers
will accompany us, we will take a look
at the "Lower Board." The Lower Board is
sometimes called the Long Room ; and as it is a
comparatively new institut on, its nomenclature
L not absolutely fixed. For a great number of
years the Stock Exchange was Held in Wall
street, in the back chamber ol an old dwelling-bout-e,
which occupied the site ol what is now
called Jauncy Court; it afterwards was held lu
an upper room of tbe Metcbants' Exchange,
now occupied by the auditor ot the Custom
Ilou.oe, alter which it waa lemoved to hired
apartments in South William s reet; but it now
lias a building ol its own iu Broad street, where
it ha drawn attor it all the itock-brokers and
money-chaugera who can find a foothold In any
of the cellars or attics of that neighborhood. The
custom house, the sub-treasury, the mint, and
the Stock Exchange are all witbra a stone's throw
of one another, as they ought to be; and this
compacting ol the chief money mats of the New
World into so small a space makes tbe value of
the laud in tbe immediate vicinity greater than
that of any similar space on the earth. There is
a building completed on the corner of Nassau
and Pine streets, near by, intended for brokers'
and bankers' ,fliccs, which will afford a good
idea of, the way things work in this neighbor
hood. It is on ned by a family ol brothers, who
came to New York some teu or twelve vears ago
and rented a place ior which they paid a bun'
dred dollars a ear. Tais building which they
have Just erected has cost them a million ot dol
lars, one-hall being paid lor the land on which
it stands; and it rents for about two hundred
and hlty thousand dollars a year. We know of
one man who pays seven thousand dollars a
year for one small office in the basement of
this building. There are "durginzs" in the
neighborhood ei Wall street, it' will be seen,
that are very nearly equal to Gould & Curry,
Taking our departure from this marble - El
dorado, we proceed down Nassau street, past
ti.e sub-treasury, with its Doric columns, and
discover in Broad street a tall structure of white
marble, rising like Mont Blanc out of an arid
desert ot blown sandstone. This is the Stock
Exchange; and we may euter it In Wall street
through a richly ornamented white-marble sort
of gateway, or by a plain doorway in a brick
front on New street, or through a Corinthian
portico of while marble in Broad street. We
will choose the lat er portal. The hour is four
P. M. ; an excited crowd ot brokers are rushing
out ot tbe narrow passage-way of the "Open
Board" trom a brownstune building near by,
and are making their way to tbe Lower
Board, into which they hurry, pell-mell, with
note-books and pencil;, in baud. We will
let them rush in. while we siop in th vesti
bule to take a look. On eituer side of the
entrance there is an immense window, com
peted of two enormous sheets of plate glass,
so bright and transparent that it requires an
actual touch of the hand to satisfy you there
is anything there to keep out the wind aud tbe
rain. You look into a vast hall, with a tessel
lated floor of red and white marble, nnd a long
range of fluted iron columns, with Corinthian
capitals running down the centre, on which rest
the lion girders of the coiling above. A lofty
flight ol broad iron stairs leads to the upper
story, in hich are the spacious apartment of the
tbe "regular board," and on the stairs may oe
seen the figures of famous men iu tbe financial
woild, ascending and descending, like the angels
on Jacob's ladder. Tbe vestibule of this long
room is divided from the main apartment
by a raiiine: and a sort of wicker, at which sits a
stout Cerebus, vvitb a double chin Instead of a
double heart. The broed shouldered, fresh com
plex'.oned gentleman near by is tbe lessee ot the
Long Kot'm; the double-ch'inred, good-natured
Ceicbus to whom He ispeaiciug is tbe Jani
tor' or doorkeeper of the room. He keeps
efficient watch to see that no one enters the
apartment who Is not entitled to it by virtue
ol puving a hundred dollars a vear for the
privilege, and a blue-coated policeman who
lounges near by, waits to seize any adventurer
who attempts to infringe the order ol the place.
Pickpockets avoid the room by instinct, as they
would be iu'tauily recognized and nabbed. The
crowd commences pushing as it hurries in, and
directly a nucleus for a gathering is formed by a
small man, with a large moustache and a note
book in his hand, who shouts, in a shrill voice,
"What Is bid lor old Southern?" T vo or three
men shout in response, "I'll give eighty buyer
three for two hundred old Southern;" "Nine and
three -quartets;" "Seven-eighths;" "Whui's the
Erice of Erie?" ' I'll sell five hundred Erie at a
all ;" "Who wants to sell Mariposa preferred'"
"I'll give an eighth for Quicksilver!" Shouts
another, "What's the price of New York Cen
ttalf" "tlow'c Canton?" "fhree-quurters for
Reading;" "Fourteen tor on" bundrml Hud-ion

;nnd then A ragged little- Mercury, ith tbe
badge oi a telegraphic oilioe on a is cap, runs
up to the crowd, and cries out with his
shrill voice: "Ilcah;" Austin;" "Kimball;"
"Lawrence," or some oiher name of the
denizens of the room, until the person he is In
pursuit ol Is lonnd, and then he subsides. Every
one is not excited, however. There aro old
staeers, who quietly lounge about as though
they were strolling in a secluded grove, where
in thing louder than the nmrmurlug of a rivulet
or the rustling of leave" cou'd be heard; others
lounge easily and smoke their oiscurs on the
benches ranged along the sides of the room, and
discuss the prospects ol the cotton crop or some
other remote subiect; two-thirds, at least, of the
frequenters of tbe hall have cigars In their
mouths, and their tormenting smoke ascendeth
lor er ai d ever, in biikines hours. Ever and
anon two men retire to make entries in their
note-books of their bargains; at.d now and then
a youthful member of the Board varies the
noisy monotony of the scen by playfully
.lamming somebody's hat over his eyes. Iu
the midst ol the excitement a pause is pro
duced by a stout gentleman, in a sort ol "Fra
liiavolo" hat, mounting the iron steps at the
ti'itber end of the hall, and shouting, "Gentle
men, il you want to buy Erie, now's your time.
I'll sell any port of a thousand shares, seller
ten, for sixty." As it has just been selling tor
sixty-one. a 'tremendous uproar is at once occa
sioned. Everybody rushes towards tbe great
bi ar, and imtautly a stampede takes place, not
only in Erie, but in cvertb.ng else; for there is
a wocdcrlul sympathy in railroad shares, and
they go up or down, hot so much of their own
momentum, but in accordance with thtB lead
ing stock. Thousands of shuns, of all sorts of
stocks, at once change hands, margins are
wiped out, and parties sKngntered. The bear
operator, naving accomplished his object in de
pressing the market, quietly steps a ay; aud,
as it is appioaching towards 6 o'clock, when the
room is ciosed, the crowd gradna ly disperse.
As j ou are about leaving, yon see three or
four rough-looking men, in 'red shirts and
slouched hat, walk in, and jou wonder What
they can want in sucn a place, when the mys
tery oi their appearance Is solved by their seis
ing hold ol the great mats of coir, which they
bigin to drag preparatory to a thorough ducting
and scrubbing of the premises, which must take
place every nicht. Emerging into Broad street
with the ci-ewd, you notlc-: a great number of
hacks and coupes, like the coacbos and omni
buses at a steamboat landing, waiting to convev
borne the wearied, exctted, aud over-worked ope- i
raiors, Droxers, aua speculators, wno are ex-,
hatisted by tbe excitements and labors (hey have

hood will be as silent as a cemetery, and' only
bere and there a clerk at his desk, or a woman
dusiing an office prepaatory for the next
day's campaign.
Alexander II. Stephens and the Committee
ol Fit teen.
From the Daily News
We have already commented on that strange
doctrine expressed In the report of the Recon
struction Committee that objects to the settle
ment of political issues iu this republic by open
discussion and legitimate action in the legisla
tive halls of the country. The sober judgment
of the people and their instinctive apprecia
tion of the purport, of tber lorm of government,
will revolt at the bare suggestion of a theory so
utterly at variance with republicanism; aod
the Intelligence of the masses cannot fail to
perceive in this' the motive of the radical in .
holding fast to their monopoly of cealral lexis
lation. They dare not meet the representatives
of the South in tho fair fields of Congressional
disputation, for they know that they would be
worsted in the conflict.
The position assumed by Thaddeus Stevens
and his adherents can only be maintained by
keeping a large proportion of the champions of
the Democracy out of the arena; for it is appa
rent that if all the elements of conservative
strength could be biought to bear upou the de
temiination of the questions of the day, the
result would be a signal defeat of the radical
policy. The republic as a whole, as a Union of
the States symbolized by tne stars upon the
national flag, has no voice in tae settlement of
issues that affect the general interests. If the
people could be heard, no one doubts that the
majority would repudiate the doctrines of the
radicals. ,
But, of course, while the representatives of a
Not them taction contiol the proceedings ot
Coiigriss, by sheer usurpation,' and, in fact, con
stitute all that there is of a National Legislature,
popular sentiment will continue to be outraged,
and tbe will of the majorities ignored. It i nor
to be wondered at, therefore, that the Commitee
of Fifteen deprecate and (ear the day when the
battle shall be fought in the legislative halls of
tbe country ; lor the existence of thetr prty
. depends upon their avoidance of that struggle.
1 The committee demand ot the Southern people
1 that which it is tniDoss-ible for them to grant
I v. It bout disgrace to their manhood and violence
to the noblest attributes ol human nature. They
ask them to deny their suilruges to those in
whom they have confidence, and who are en
deared to them by the sacred tics ot compan'on
thipina common cause, and to bestow them
upon men v ho do not represent the sentiment
ot their section. They ask them to make ex
pression ot feelinus that they cannot entertain,
and to purchase political privileges by a mouth-1-omaee
to which their hearts cannot respond.
In support of tbs supposition that tne South
ern people are not in a condition to resume their
place in the national household, the committee
sav : "It Ls only necessary to instance tho elec
tion to the Senate of the late Vice-President of
the Conit deracy. A roan who, against his own
declared convictions, had lent all the weight of
his acknowledged ability and of his mrtu. nee as
a most prominent public man, to tbe cause ot
the Rebellion, and who, unpardoned Rebel as
he Is, with that oath staring him in the face,
bad the assurance to lay their credentials ou the
table of the Senate."
Now who, we ask, can be better qualified than
Alexander II. Stephens to represent with dig
nity, with honesty, and ability, a Southern
Slate in the Senate of the United States?
Whatever may have been the merits of the
cause in which be was engaged, not even the
enemies of that cause will ss rt that he was
actuated by selfish or dishonorable motives.
No wild ambition lur.ed him, no thought of
personal aggrandizement controlled his ac
tion, but a seuse ol'iluty, a conscientlotu inter
pretation ol tils political obligations, guided his
course to shipwreck, it is true, but not to In
famv or shame. It is impossible for Congress
to brand such men in their defeat, ith any
mark that the world will accept as a sign of de
gradation ; and we hope and believe that it will
be lound equally impossible to bribe the com
rades of such men to repudiation of their claims
to respect and contitlenre.
Tbe Committee ol Fifteen knew perfectly well
that Mr. Stephens has no deg re or intention to
piovoke anv hostility acaiiiht the Federal Gov
ernment. He has expressed huuoelt content to
abide by the arbitrament of war, and no one
will dispute hif sincerity or truth. Why, then.
shcv.ld not bis talents be made available In the
Serate or elsewhere to assist the machinery
oi Government r .
' Ulie pionnnent men ot the South, those who
nere most zealous and active in the cause ot
the Conteueiaey, will prove, if they ba permit'ed
the opportunity, tie tuott zealous and active
In the labor of recuperation. The republic
csnnot afloid. to dispense alih.tha. services of
Uio most energctioy intellectual, and ioflu
trtialof the citizens. Of the Houth. lit wonlfl
be a mockery iof rcpublicaiilum to dictate ta
ibeSoutlw-rn people irl their Selection of Re
presentatives, ana It Is folly to expert that
they wilt voluntarily give their tuflrage& to the
Invorlles and henchmen of a Northern taction.
Hut no concession or equitablo adjustment is to
be hoped from the radicals. They love power
loo well to tarrttice it for the weltara ol their
country. A full and. pcifoct Congressional, re-
rti somatlon would leave them in a minority in
lie National Legislature, and under the circum
stances, It ly natural they should bo unwilling
to rL-k a battle in the legislative hails.
