Til IMeitcan Mnddld
No trustworthy iotelliRrnce has been received
from Mexico later than the advices brought by
the Seine last week.
Ell is aid that Maximilian Is still In Orizaba.
It is not VnowD, however, how long he will re
n.ain there.
Twenty-live transports have received orders to
fit cut, in order to brio? back tho French troops,
ai their captains and crews are already on
board. It la expected that tbo different rurps
will embaik at Vera Cruz about the Kglnnlng
.f lYbruary.
Tla News froi" !
k still of a verydo'ibti-i uature. The French
troops commenced kvhk the Pou (Ideal city
tu the 3d instant. The o(licer, before their
4 parture, paM a farewell visit to the Tope, who
tK-stowed upon them the Apostolic benediction.
Now it i certain that the French are going,
itbd that the Papal Government Is to be left
lace to luce with its aubjects, both Its adherent
sod adversaries are silently waiting for what
oy happen after. Neither party has its plans
prcpnied.
(Jcnerally speaking, there appeals to be but
little revolutionary euthusium, and the majo
iny of the Romans appear to be awaitiug their
fate with perfect composure, like prudent aud
sensible men, who are aware that the future of
Rome is not to be decided by force or violence.
'To Oo, or Not to Go!"
It has been announced that the Empress' pro
ject of a journey to Rome, which was ou the
point ol being cairied out, is completely aban
doned; but, according to other information, it
is yet hoped that the pilgrimage will be made.
The indication supposed to be invovled in the
issue of a fourth series of Invitations to Com"
piegne can hardly be considered coucluslve, for
theie is no rule of etiquette which would pro
hibit the Emperor Iroin receiving guests in the
Eir.prcss' absence, and appointing a lndy to do
the honors of the palace in her place.
$1111 at Complegne.
Tic French proverb of "Los jours so puMunt,
et De se ressemblent pas" (The days pass but do
iot resemble one another), does not at all apply
10 the days spent by the Imperial family and
Court at Conipiegne, for tbtie the days resemble
each other very much. Hunting, shooting, and
kctiiifr, the time patses merrily by, for now
work is over, as the Commission broke up with
out deciding anything.
Tl.erc are rumors of the Emperor being aain
uii'vrll; and, in support of them, it is notic?d
tlu'it l.e was obliged to leave the theatre the
tthi-r Oay immediately alter the s.icoud act,
tut this ic a very slight indication ludcd.
Tlie Ti lnl of Lainli-andc,
tin? huudiilent cashier of the branch Bank of
Fiance at Poitiers, commenced" on Monday, the
od ins'., ai the Court of Assizes of that city. .
He was defended by M. Lachaud, the same
barrister who defended Risk Allah Bey at
Drupels
One thing of peculiar interest in this case was
that his lawyers endeavored to get a suspension
and French Governments to examine the cir
onin?tauces under which he was carried oil" by
tl.c French police from Canada.
Though, however, they urged various techni
cal reueous in support of their demand, the
Court refused any delay. The amount he cm
boiled was nearly 30,000.
In f-pite of the eloquent aud abl3 defense of
Lis talented counsel, Lamirandc was found
guilty of forgery, with extrnuatiug circuin
ttancee, aud condemned to ten years' imprison
ment with hard labor.
Auother Sensatlou Trial.
The French public cannot complain of a
want of exciting trials at the present time, lor
immediately after Lamirande's came that ol
Martin Reau, the poisoner, which commenced
the day before yesterday at Niort, bclore the
Court of Assizes of the Deux Serres.
This wretch is accused of the murder of no
fewer than four of his nearest relatives, namely
his brother-in-law, Pierre Reau; his first wife,
Marie Jeanne Reau; his second wife, Julie Bon
temps; and bis little son, Abel Reau, ouly two
years old.
On searchlug his house, the police found a
book on poisons, M. Lachaud, the celebrated
avocat, has been retained for his defense.
Vlctorlen Sardou'a "Mftlsou Neuve."
The first representation oi M. Sardou's new
play of Maison Neuve took place on Monday,
the 3J inst., at the Vaudeville Theatre. It was
originally fixed for Saturday, but in conse
quence of the Censor's having struck out seve
ral passages alluding to the rise in house rent
and the dcarness of living in Paris.
Tbia piece had been widely vaunted before
hand, but was far from coming up to general
expectations; indeed, it was a complete failure.
Jt is like almost all M. Sardou's pieces, a satire
ou the contemporary life of Paris.
A Paris Theatre Destroyed by Fire.
The small Theatre des Nouveauttes, in the
Rue du Faubourg St. Martin, was burned down
last Monday evening.
The people were waiting for the doors to be
opened, and the actors and actresses were in
their dressing-rooms preparing for the perform
ance, when the drop curtain caught fire, and in
a few minutes the whole house was in flames,
the only things saved being the performers' cos
tumes. The house was insured for 55,000 francs
(2300), but the damage done is of infinitely
greater importance. The chandelier, which was
totally destroyed, was alone worth 3500 francs.

To the Editor of The Evening Telegraph:
Bir: re rmit mo to talk a little with you.
You V now that I have never been a warm
partisan of the Constitutional Amendment
which was drawn np In the last session of Con
gress. It has always appoared to we tna,r
the first time to sanction by an article of the
Constitution a distinction founded ou color, is
fo give a strange conclusion to tho victory of the
Mortb. I dolt, moreover, whether the South,
supposinir 'h1 ,l 'll0u,d adopt the Amendment,
tvooW be tempted to Intrust the negro with the
rigbl of suflrago by tho increased representa
tion which it would thus gain In Congress.
Having, whatever mi?ht happen, two Senators
'or each State, and knowing, on tho other hand,
that the negro vote would be cast lor the
Lincolnian candidates, it would have no motive
to triumph over, what is most difficult for it to
overcome, the prejudices of race and the tradi
tions ol slavery. The net result of the Amend
ment would be, therefore, to proclaim condi
tionally anew ripht, by virtue of which a nev
race could be excluded from political life, and a
class of incomplete citizens created.
It is true that, thanks to the Democratic party
and to Mr. Johnson, you run no risk of seeing
the Constitutional amendment adopted by the
J'outb. As a compromise is In question, the
North will take cure not to insist on this amend
ment. Consequently, Congress is about to re
sume Its lull liberty ol action, and I hope that
it will have the wisdom to make a good u?c of
it. The point now in question (nud It is time)
is to have a National partv, wita a pUin aad
simple platform, which w)l become popular,
and VtLich will serve as the symbol of Its whole
i niic.y. Vmterta( ivtjl'ragc Universal Amnntj
such must evidently soon bo your watchword.
Uniwrsnl Suffrage, that is to say. the suppres
sion ol all distinctions based on color, the com
pletion of the great work of emancipation, and
the inscription of eternal justice iu the body of
your Constitution. It the states should see tit
and I can understand that this may be thu
case to subject the exercise ol the riant of
sutlraee to certain cotiditlous, these conditions
should be imposed at once on the blacks aud
the whites.
Universal Amnesty, that is to say, the imme
diate admission to Congress of the States which
shall have adopted the new amendment, and of
all the States when this amendment, having
become part of the Constitution, shall have
eMablirhed universal sullrage everywhere; the
pardon of all the Rebels, great and small; the
renuneintion of all plans of conquering the
.outh, ol reducing the Southern States to tne
position of territories; of confiscation; and of
punishment.
1 dislike, I confess, everything that tends to
ptipetuate the consequences anu remembrances
of the civil war. It ts important that peace
Miould be peace, and that pardon should be
pardon. If you only establish the equality of
races, you need have no fear of the former
Rebel. To delude them from public life would
be to exclude the whole South. Ins'.eud of the
policy of exclusion, a'iopt boldly tho policy of
admission. It is better to admit the blacks who
love you, than to exclude the whites who hate
you. Have faith in your Constitution, have faith
in liberty, and, above all, huve faith in that Cod
who has never ceased to bles you when you
have waited in the path of Justice.
How glorious will be thRt moment when you
will no longer have either s'aves, or helots, or
semi-citizens, or proscrlpts, or persons excluded
from any privileu.es whatever 1 that moment
whenyournoble Constitution will have resumed
its swav from one end ot your cauntry to the
other, when I lie most gigantic Rebellion of
modern time, bavin? been conquered by force,
will be conquered by kindness, equity, and
generosity.
H is important that Jyou should hasten to
arrive at this conclusion. Exceptional systems
imve iiiuiriiitiiuci, nud .ycm.ylll not liiivu ended
jourtnfk until tLoie is neither an excluded
Sbite nor au excluded race within your borders.
Thus everything brings us back to our motto:
Equality of citizen", equality of States; or, as
I said a moment since, L'mvefsal Sutlrage, Uni
versal Amnesty.
Nothing is more natural than that you should
complete this new Constitutional amendment
by incorporating therein the repudiation of the
Southern dibt, and the solemn guarantee of the
Union debt; but iu my opinion, as to the essen
tial point.-, everything is summed up in the
following words which I have just written:
Distrust middle measures and compromises. I
know of but one means to put an end to a ques
tion, name y, to settle it once and forever. I
know of but one means toinnure peace, namely,
utterly to eradicate the cause of war. Universal
sullrage will settle the negro question; universal
amnesty will put an end to the white question.
This done, you will have accomplished the
most astonishing political work ever under
taken by a people. Through a civil war, com
bined with a social revolution, you will have
maintained intact the treasure.of your liberties.
ou will neither have dictatoiship, nor central
ization, nor great standing armies. You will
doubtless need some troops, and, for a laps? of
time, which I hope may be very brief, but the
necessity of which no one can quesdoo, you will
be called upon to protect the action of your
Freedmen's Bureaus, and to 6ettle the Inevitable
difficulties proceeding from a transitional epoch.
This, however, will be merely a transitional
epoch; and, through the very effect ot general
liberty, the precautions now necessary will
speedily become useless.
You may raise the objection lhat I hsvenot
taken Mr. Johnson into aecount. I do not con
ceal fiom mvself the fact that if the President
continues to play the part of the partisan ot the
South in opposition to the North, he can raise
up great obstacles in your way.
lie cau, in the first place, encourage the iso
lation of the South. The equality of races, that
indispensable complement of emancipation,
would have been accepted wit h little dilliculty
by the rebellions Slates on the morrow of their
defeat, under Mr. Lincoln; real emancipation,
with real reconciliation as its corollary, would
have been speedily realized; tho National parly
and its venerated cbief would have proceeded
hand-in-hand towards the same iroal, and would
have attained it. Since the South has felt that
it had an ally in the White House, It has been
less inalined to adopt your Constitutional
amendments. Nevertheless, the result of the
lal? elections, and the certainty of being unable
to defeat the Union party and to relusure Demo
cratic majorities, will not be long, I trust, In
overcoming this resistance. To be excluded
indefinitely from Congress, or to be readmitted
therein as econ as tho negroes shall be put in
lull possession of Uie rights of citizens in the
presence of such an alternative, the wle men
ol the Souih, and there are such, will know
which side to choose.
The second peril to which Mr. Johnson mav
subject you, and it is one against which it is
impossible to be sufficiently on your guard, is
the return of the old war policy of the Demo
cratic party. To erter into a dispute with
! ranee or Eugkmd, to support the Fenians, per
haps, or to embaik the country in some quarrel
tbat will distract the public attention, and
make it forget reconstruction for ambition
sr.ch is tho course of conduct which natarally
otters itself. In all times, and in oil countries,
war Is the great destroyer of libeity. Give the
South a great war, and you will restore to it, if
not all is clauses, at least all Its hopes of suc
cess. Who knows whether, at a given moment,
It would not find au all v to aid it in recom
mencing civil war, withdrawing from the
negroes a partial and still ill-defined liberty, ami
aeuin bringing in question the existence ot the
United States f
You are the party of liberty; you should be the
patty ot peace. With peace, you will finish the
work ot emancipation; veu will re-establish con
siitutiooal order: you will prevent dictatorsbios;
jou will disband armlef : you will pay the
national debt; and you will pave the way, bv
the liberal reconstruction of the Union, for the
accomplishment of its glorious destluies.
