city of purpose displayed by t ,e Jimpress, is now
moro complete than be.oie. Uer Maiost ., ho vover,
is not to deserving ot blurae as might apposr; all
tbat was irregular and eocentno ia her
conduct towards the Holy Father mut
be attributed to the nervous exci emont trom
which she has snilered so lour, and wbich
trtqucnt.y disturbs her reason She went at
iBKt ouo moruiiig at 0 o'clock to the Pope without

that there were designs on ber He; ibut an a'tompt
had been made to poiwon b r at the liotol di Itouia:
tnat she old not believe herseii' safe and eould not

Tbe Pope th s ordered an apartment to be nre

the night, and the loiiowmg day she was slill there,
not l eing willing to quit tbe Vatican, Imagining
that she saw murderers everywhere ready to tate
her life. Several foreign ladiei were invited to
pass the night with her, as she bad sent away her

arrived here ftom Mexico tor the last two years
ba spoken to toe sa'ue effect. The Mxlcan
never understood Maximillnu, however scholar
like he knew their lunguage: and Maximilian to
this dav doej not know tne Mexicans.
He allowed himself to be deceived from tbe
very outset, by one party more so than by an
other. All his acts prove that bo ever and anon
vncillated bis volubility had no end. And yet
be is one of tbe best-inteniioned men in the
world, which, however, in Mexican id.om,
means of no account. Bazalneisan ambitious
man, far too much so to do Maximilian anv
good. Carlo U a was trie first to discern it, and
acted promptly, according to the emergency.
Bazaine hud in view, it is said, something more
than the mere interests ol either Maximilian or
the Mexicans; but Carlotta overreached bim,
though it was at the eleventh hour. " Yet, alter
all, a dictatorship might have been tbe bout
foim of government under the circumstances.
The,, only queston would bnve been whether
Bnzainc was the proper chief to assume such a
post.
MAXIMILIAN WANTING FUNDS.
A conference was held on the Cth inst. at the
palace iu Chapuleoec, to which many of the
wealthy classes were invited, with a view to
concert with the ministry the best tneuuri to, pro
vide funds to tho treasury. wh.tej Was in a de
plorable condition, and had important enaage
incuts to meet ThQ only result obtained was
tbe naming of a committee, charged to make up
ft report of the situation, accompanied by sucu
Buggpstions as would speedily replenish the
treasury with the needful.
CARLOTTA EXPECTED HOME. ,
A despatch bad been received in very posi'ive
terms that Carlotta was to embark for Mexico
on the ltith instant, having been persuaded not
to go by the September packet on account of the
pquinoctials. The Fstafette of the 9th, however,
stiyg as follows: "It appears ct-rtain that the
KmpressT has embarked in a French vessel of
war, which is expected to be in Vera Cruz ov
the end ot the month. Part ot the Court wl l
proceed to said port to celebrate her hippy
arrival, and one of the members of the private
cabinet has already gone there to prepare the
wuy to her Majesty. This will do away with all
rumors of an early abdication."

FROM TURK'S ISLAND.
A FEARFUL TORNADO.
Eight Hundred Houses Destroyed
Iwenty Persons Killed and Many
Injured and Rendered Homeless-Immense
Destruction

,i ,-i -i -i -i i.ruinnj
Halifax, October 25.-The schooner Victor,
arrived at Luncbnrg, makes the following
report:-Turk's Island, on the 30th of Septem
ber, was visited with a terrific hurricane, de
stroying over 800 houses and their contents.
Twenty lives were lost, and a number of per
ssius crippled and otherwise injured. Over 3000
persons were rendered houseless, penniless, and
-.ihiiost naked. Tbe whole laboring portion of
tbe colony is in tbe most dest tute condi Ion.
The public school, armory, jail, quaran .lno,
hospital, market, and all the Government out
buildings were blown down. The Government
bouse and public offices were shattered, aud
12,000 bushels of salt were swept away. 81
, ft reign and twelve island crafts were lost, with
E . 1 M .1 t
iw vmjr vi luoir crews.
At Salt Cay the ruin was equally severe. Five
vessels went ashore, amongthem the s Moaner
sally J. Aiken, of Wilmington, Del., and the
brigantme A. G. Cattell, of Philadelphia.
At Cockburn harbor tho ruin is quite as great.
Scarcely enough houses remain to shelter tio
destitute.
The schrooner L. Rich, from New York,
broke from ber niooriuga and put to sea on
Sunday. Sour other vessels were lost.

JEFF. DaVIS' TRIAL.
Further Postponement Until Next Bprlng
Tho Causes of thin Delay, and Who
Is to Blame for It Chief Justice Chase
Puta the Fault on Congress, Etc.
Fortress Monroe, Va., October 23. The
recent correspondence between President John
son and Attorney-General 8tanbery, relative to
lurtLer action on tho part of the Executive to
bring JetT. Davis to trial, bas served to very ma
terially enlighten the public upon the present
etato of affairs. For tbe present, at least, and
perhaps for months to corqe, it will occupy
lust the same position, and another term of the
United States Circuit Court will be suffered to
go by without any action to try the prisoner
being taten by the jndicial authorities.
The legal difficulties in the way of holding ths
Court at Richmond, in consequence of the ad
journment from Norlolk in June last, are a
serious detriment to its proceedings, and it ls
hardly doubted now that tho Court will not
ftfsemble next month in Richmond, a was before
generally supposed. Thi3, of course, involves a
further postponement of a civil trial of Davis
under the Indictment for treason presented at
the last term of the Circuit Court; and in all
probability ho will be kept in confinement the
en tire, winter, that ii to say, until the spring term
of the Court, excepting, ot course, tbat Execu
tive clemency does not interpose and grant him
a parole and release from his confinement.
In December, when the Supreme Court of tbe
United States meets, Judge Chase will be too
busy to devote any of bis time or attention to
other legal matters, and the advocates ot a
speedy trial of Davis, both in the North and In
tne Boutn, have nothing to hope lor from tho
present action of the judicial authorities.
Neither is it likely that a writ of habeas corpus
will be issued upon the Commandant ot the
Fortress, acting as liis custodian, demnnding bis
deliverance to the United States Marshal, for
incarceration in a Vireinia State jail.
As long as he remains a prisoner In the hands
of the United Slates Government, be will be re
tained here in a United Slates fortress, and
guarded beyond all possibility of escape. Tho
statement of United States District Attorney L.
II. Cbundler to Attorney-General Stanbery
confirms this view, In assigning two different
reasons wbich influence bim in not taking any
steps for not removing bim from their custody
tbe one relating to bis sale keeping, tbe other
to his own personal comfort and health.
From the Jfew York Herald this morning,
Fobtresb Mos iok, October 28 November, tne
appointed time lor the tnat ot Jef. Davis, is rapidly
drawing close upon ns, but tbe pre eut contused
conip exion of fToi's ueanng upon theitriul rives
very hit e encO'iragemont that Hits imuortant event
will find an catly place on the calendar ot the United
States cou it or auy other oivil tribunal. 1 gatner
this (K'nerat ami undoubted result from a 00'iversa
non to-day with Mr L U Chandler, United States
District Attorney tor this District.
In the way of a session of tbe Unitod States Court
being held next month in itiehmonl stands the
tniiu e to allot judjrps over ttie districts as newly
laid out in tho aoi ot Convress at Its last stss on
'ite d fflcu ty can only bo obviated by Congress,
wi icb, as is well known, will not meet nntil IX-com-per,
ulP9 a special soeslon is called ov tue Presi
dent, which ia a'iogeioer too remote a oontiugeno
to base any ca coiatiou upon. Furthermore, ttis
United Mtates Supreme Court meets in December,
mien Congress convene, and with the present mal
ti'l city ol important causos before the Court, Ch ef
Juice IhftBe will have his bands too lull of business
to attend to am thing ele
Fiom this brief exposition of facts, it will be een
tLa-, there is no present like uood, notwithstanding
what Mr. Davis may anticipate, or bis lrieudsor
counsel anticipate, or wish for bim, ot his being
brought to trial till next spring at the earliest. Chief
Jut ice Cbae bis iulormed Mr. Chandler of til
perfect readiness and even anxiety to bas en on tbe
trial, nut casts tne niame upon the stupid plunder
ing made by the last Congress in its meddling with
tbe geographical boundaries of tho Judioial districts
in the manner it did, without making tbe propor
allotment of judges to conform with the other
changes. Regarding the issue ot a writ ot habeas
corpus bv any State or ocal coart, Mr Chandler
anticipates no sucb action, but on tbo contrary teals
w ell assured it will not be lono Mis expluuations
on this point in the rcceut pub ishod correspondence
o: the President, Attorney-General, and himself, are
abundantly explicit, and need not be recapitulated
here.
Tb i'ne of any such writ, as no ono can tail to
see, would be hostile to the jet Inferos s of Mr.
lavis. As to tbe President pardoning Mr Davis, it
Is the opinion of Mr. Chandler tuat the former his
no right to do it, and wi I not venture on an suob
step. He dos not believe eit'ier. that t io Presi
dent will grant him anv further parole than he now
erjojs; bnt this last statement is a mtra matter of
opinion ; and thus the case stands. Mr. Davis seems
like y to be booked here for ttie winter, tie uuv
inurmnr against it, and so may his friends; bur
tin re seems no help for it. As in the past, so In the
Kiiure, on finding Ibis fate inevitable, he will
doubtless bear up with liko flmness of manner and
cr. in and patient hope.
