The following letter from the Mexican Gene ral Berriozabee was received by mail on the 6th inst., at the Mexican consulate in New York: Matamos.b, July 27, 1807. To De John N. Navarro: By the present you are fully author ized to deny as perfectly fiilee the report ot the hanchero newspaper, that the authorities and people of this city made public rejoicings on re ceiving the news of Maximilian's execution. Those rejoicings took place indeed; but they were intended to celebrate the important event of tbe capture of Mexico city, officially known here by tbe same mail. Itou can deny, aud pronounce counterfeited too, the stupid and savatre Id ler on foreigners attributed to General Escobedo by the same Ranchero. I will write to the General by the next mail, and he will send to you the power to contradict those calumnies. Mo wonder the Itanchero Is so eager in repre senting our country In such a disgraceful light, and make the world believe that we are opposed to foreigners, and wish to kill them, a that newspaper was published under the auspices of Mejla, and is edited by notorious Rebels, and receives a subvention from the Mexican traitors residing in Brownsville. It is in such discredit among the Americans themselves that they asked me to stop it circulation in this city. This proves the credibility of its news. I re main, etc., F. B.

It is exoected also that the Dartv employed on the Chiltern will repair the Atlantic cable of 1868, which, It has been ascertained, wa9 broken in shallow water on the 20th of July.

An Address to tne People from Governor Worth He Advises Wham to Register. Executive PKPArTMEAT, IUleioh, August 3, 1867. To the People ot North Carolina: Under recent acts ot Congress, called Reconstruction acts, popular elections are shortly to be held in this State. At these elections no person is to be allowed to vote unless he shall furnish evidence of his right to vote for Registrars ap pointed in pursuance ot said acts. All male citiaens, white and colored, who have resided in the State one year previous to the date of elec tion (with certain exceptions) will be entitled to voto upon producing the certificate of the Registrars. It Is expected that the instructions will be Issued at an early day from Maior-Gene-ral Sickles, who has been appointed by the President of the United States to carry out the provisions of these acts in North and South Carolina, explaining to the Registrars their duties, and giving his construction ot the acts as to the persons entitled to reeister, and those to whom the right is denied; and these instruc tions it will bo the duty of the Registrars to obey. As I understand these acts, no person is to bo allowed to register or vote who, at any time be fore the war, had held any otlice under the United Slates, or any State office, "created by law for the administration of the general law of the State, or tor the administration ot justice," and "afterwards engaged in insurrection and rebellion against the United States, or gave aid and comfort to the enemies thereof." I prj surae, in the expected instructions from General 8ickles to the reelstrars, he will give a construc tion to these, as well as any other provision of the acts touching the right of registration which may seem susceptible of variant interpretation. It is believed thitt nearly all the colored voters above twenty-one years old, and who have resided a year in the State, will be entitled, under thete acts, to register, and they will register and vote. There is no means ot making an estimate approximating certainty as to the number of white mule residents above the age ol twenty-one years who will not be allowed to vote. At the last census (i860) the total white male population was 313.670, and the total male colored population 191,311); and at the excited election lor Governor in 1860 112,586 votes were cast. The effect of this legislation, by the conquer ing power of the nation, makes the negro iu the excluded States, as to civil and political rights, the equal of the most favored class ot the whites, and the political superior of most of those who held office in the State before the war. Whatever may be the final settlement of the questions as to the political equality of the two races, or the superiority of the one over tbe other, it is certain that for a long time to come, unless humanity is to be shocked by the expulsion or annihilation of one race or the other, this State is to be inhabited by both races; and it is the manifest interest of both races to live together In peace and friendship, each acting kindly and justly towards the other. Every good man, who is a wise statesman, will use all his influence to avoid everything tending to antagonize the races. If one class consoli date to gain political ascendancy, or effect any other object deemed specially beneficial to such class, it will certainly lead to counter combina tions, and hostility between the classes. Injuri ous to both, and likely to end in ruin to the one or the other. I have not heard of, and have no idea that there exists among the white population, any combination, public or private, to consolidate the white vote, to the preiudice ot the blacks; nor have I the slightest suspicion that any such combination is contemplated. After the regis trars shall have decided who arc to have the privilege of voting, the persons so registered will be called upon to vote for or against the call ot a State Convention, and lor members of such Convention. These acts provide that, in case a majority of the yoters shall vote for a Convention and elect members; and if such Convention adopt a Constitution which shall be ratitied "by a majority of the persons voting on tbe question of ratification ;" and "when Con gress shall have approved the same, and when the State by a vote of its Legislature elected under said Constitution shall have adopted the amendment to the Constitution of the United States proposed to the Thirty-ninth Cougress, and known as Article 14;" and when three lourths ot the States stall have ratified said 11th Arrticle, then "the'State shall be declared en titled to representation in Congress, aud Sena tors and Representatives shall be admitted therefrom on their taking the oath prescribed oy law." Tbe sole object of this address is to urge on every citizen of North Carolina to register, who mav'bo entitled to register, and I have eone into this recital of some of the provisions of the acts of Congress, to enable vou to understand tbe reasons which Induce me so to advise you. tl JUU uu uuv xciaiui kUCll JUU Will IlUb ut; llowed to vote for or against the call of a Con vention, which is expected to make the altera tions in your Constitution contemplated by theee acts of Congress, and such other altera tions as the delegates may deem proper. If you do not register, you will not be allowed to vote for any acicgate to the Convention. When the Convention shall have proposed a new Constitution, if you shall not have regis tered you will not be allowed to vote on tbe ratification or rejection of the proposed Consti tution, however much you may admire or abhor it. And if you do not reeister, you will not be allowed to vote for members of the Legislature. who are to ratify or reject the proposed 14th Article as an amendment of the Constitution of the United States. I have no hesitation in urging upon every citizen who is allowed the privilege of voting under these laws to register, so as to vote, If he choose, on these questions. No citizen allowed to register and vote, who fails to vote, will have any right to complain if those who do register and vote should adoDt a Constitution which should be ever so oppressive anu proscripuve. wnatever constitution may be adopted will no doubt contain a provislou making it ditiicult to amend it. Ilence every citizen uuoweu io uo so buouiu uo wnat he can to make the new government as good as pos sible. Let me ask each of you who is allowed to vote and register, are you willing to surrender ail snare in niamng the Constitution and laws under which you tire to live? Are you willing io Burreuuer nu suare in electing the otlicers to whom shall be confided the making and the exe cuting of tbe laws, including the levying and collecting taxesr Whether you regard these laws as constitutional or unconstitutional, wise or unwise, you ought to reeister and put your selves in condition to vote, and maintain as long as possible the right of tbe people to form the Government au3 make the laws under which they are to live. If you cannot have suoh a lioverniueui. juu uenirc, uiHKe u as eood as you can. a neglect or reiusai to register I re. gard as a voiuniary surrender or the right to take part in governmental atlairs; and I there fore most earnestly enireai every citizen not to despair of popular government, but to register and vote, and try to maintain a Government which will give to him and his posterity as much of becurity ana nappiness as possible.

Jerry O'Brien Preparations for Ills Kiecutlon To-morrow Interview Be tween the Culprit and Ills Mother and Slaters Ominous Call from Sheriff Kelly. To-morrow the youthful murderer, Jeremiah O'Brien, is to suffer the extreme penalty ot the law, in the conrt-yard of the City Prison. The details of the homicide of which he was found guilty are, doubtless, too fresh In the recollec tion of our readers to need any extended refer ence. It may be stated in brief, however, that he stabbed his unfortunate mistress to death under circumstances of the most revolting atro city. Tke weapon with which he accomplished the terrible deed, blood-stained and foi bidding as it is, now forms one of the "deodands" ot the criminal museum, in the office of our popular District Attorney, A. Oakey flail. The demeanor ot O'Brien haB materially changed since he was sentenced to death. lie has lost the reckless air which distinguished him before and alter his trial. His friends and they are numerous have brought potent Influ ence to bear on Governor Fenton to secure his pardon, or a change of his rlread fate to impri sonment for lite, but the Governor has turned a deaf car to all their entreaties. An ex-judge of this city has made many trips to Albany with this object, but he came back on each occasion irupreswed with the hopelessness of his task, and yesterday the indications were that a reprieve would be almost beyond the range of possibility. VISIT OP SHBRIFF KELLY TO O'BRIEN. YesteTday afternoon Sheriir Kelly paWl an oniinous visit to the unfortunate man. On en tering the cell of the coudemncd he informed him that it was his painful duty to counsel Mm to prepare for his awful fate, as the Governor bad not yet interfered In his behalf. It is also Kintpfl that Mr. Kellv communicated to O'Brien tbe fact that a despatch had been received from I Albany, declaring that the law shouia tane its course in his case. The prisoner is reported to have received the news calmly, a9 he was pre pared for the announcement, which was merely a repetition of what he had heard before from some of his friends. A SAD INTERVIEW. Iu the forenoon, about half-past 11 o'clock, the mother and two sisters ol O'Brien called at the prison, aud wire conducted to his cell, which is No. 5 on "Murderer's Row." on the lower Boor. They had a lengthy and affectionate interview with the unfortuuate man lor several hours, alter which thy left. They will call acain to-day, and, perhaps, to-morrow, to bid him a last farewell. A CALM FROM THE SISTERS OF CHARITY. After his relatives loft the cell two of the Sis ters of Charity, who have attended bim since his confinement, were received by him with evident satisfaction. Under their training and instruction, as well as that of the Rev. Mr. Duranquet, he bas become kind and occasion ally thoughtful. A momentary glauce at him through the bars of his cell-door yesterday showed that he had been seized by the awful calm which is the natural precursor of death. He heard the counsel which bad been given him patiently, and he now seems resigned to his doom. PREPARATIONS FOR THE EXECUTION. The Sheriff is now making preparations for the execution. Tbe ga lows which is the same as that ou which Wat(ner and other murderers died will be erected this afternoon in the north east corner of the prison yard. About two hun dred passes have been issued to witness the tragedy, which will take place between the hours ot 9 and 12 o'clock. The admissions have been confined to the officers of the law, those who took part in the trial or O linen, and the members of the press. At the urgent request ol the prisoner, no one was permitted to see bim except hid spiritual auviscrs last evening. Suicide of a Young Widow by Poison A JJrugglot censured. Yesterday aftemoou Coronor Cover held an inquest at the boarding-house of Edward Jen kins, No. 143 W. Seventeenth street, over the remains of Mrs. Frances Fischer, a widow but twenty years ot age. who committed suicide by swallowing laudanum. It appears that Mrs. Fischer, although so young, bas been a widow lor nearly five years. For some time past she has been boarding at the above premises, and supported herself by sewing. Ella Warren, a friend of deceased, who boards at the same place, stated that lor several days past she has been despondent, and several times threatened to dcstioy heiself, saying that she was tired of life. On Tuesday deceased told Miss Warren that she had lound a bottle of laudanum on the stairs, and the latter seeing the bottle in her hand took possession of it. and placed it in her bosom to prevent deceased getting it. At about 6 o'clock on Tuesday evening Miss Warren placed the bottle containing the poison la the top drawer ol her bureau, and at half-past 7 deceased came into the room crying, sayinL' she wished she was home ana out ot this lite. While Miss Warren was eugaged In conversation with a young man in fhe room at the time, deceased went to the bureau, took the bottle, and was discovered drinking tbe poison. Miss Warren eprang forward and seized the bottle, but de ceased bad swallowed nearly all the contents, aooux an ounce anu a naif. Miss warren then remarked to deceased that it would kill her, when she replied, "It will only quiet my nerves." She was asked what she took it lor, and she gave uu evasive repiy. jsieaicai aia was summoned, but Mrs. Fischer soon became insensible, and died at 2 o'clock yesterday morning. George Chamberlain, the yemng man referred to above as having been in the room when deceased swallowed the poison, corroborated Miss Warren's statement. Mrs. Mary Haskins, also a boarder in the bouse, tebtitled that she purchased a bottle of laudanum at the drug store of John 8cringer, corner of Twenty-fifth street and Fourth aveuue on Wednesday last; it contained two ounces I asked for it for the tooth-ache.trom which I was suffering at the time; I used the laudunum seve ral times, and on Friday morning left the bottle in ray wasnstand drawar; I did notmisstho bot tle until after I heard deceased had taken the poison, when I found the bottle bad been removed; the bottle deceased drank out of was mine: 1 bad no prescription for the laudanum; merely asked tor some for the toothvche, and the bottle was given me with a label on; de ceased told me on Tuesday morning that Bhe would rather bo dead, aud said she had her reasons for it. Mrs. Mary George, sister of deceased, testified that she knew of no trouble that deceased was in, and was not aware ol any motive for the suicidal act. No testimony could be ohtalne.1 tmiMiinv motives which prompted the woman to commit suiciae, ana we jury rendered the following verdict: "That Frances Fischer, the deceased, came to her death bv suicide, hv tukinir lnnHu. num on the 6th day of August, 1867, and we further censure John Stringer, drmrsrlst. doinir business corner ot Twenty-fifth street and Fourth avenue, for selling said poison contrary to law."

Olllcer William Ureen testified that upon the Infor mullou of the bov he arrested Cralir. who. unnn belncr questioned, told several Inconsistent stories about tue money, verdict, guilty. (Sentenced to County prlBon for 1 year. bamuel llamsey was charged with esoape. In break ing and leaving the Philadelphia County Prison while lu the custody of the keepers. He was taken to tbe pri on November 28, 1H65, by the United Btatea Mar shal, und was con lined as a United Btatea prinoner to await trial In the United States Court, nuon a charge ol piutHiug United States Tieasury notes. On tbe night oi may t, iixitj lie ana another prisoner, named Murray, made a hole lo tbe third floor of the prtsjn, and ettcaped by means ot a rope from the roof. On the2iith of December Iollowing he whs urrested Iu lialtlmore, and re' urned to this city. Tbe law making this an ollerjse was read and explained to the itirv. M r. Charles itrooke, for the defense, ruised the point oi mw mui tue case wits not properly neiore tnls Court for want of Jurisdiction. lie was arrested by the authority of the United mates, aud was in the custody of the Government for an ollence against Its laws: that he wus not lu the custody ot the Stale authorities, and was Imprisoned for au ollence lndie.tr nine in a otnte iouri; inereiore nis escaping irom the custody of the United States was not an otlence against tbe State of Pennsylvania. Our County l'rlton is not a United Stales prison: tbe Government only "lakes advantage of the convenience offered by tbe city," and such an escape as this was an offense Perhaps against the Unlied Slates, but certainly not against this State. At all eventa, while this prisoner was confined under a charge preferred by the United states, which had not been tried and disposed of. it would not he proper for this Court, even if it had Jurisdiction ot this case, to step lu and Interfere at least until tbe United Slates authorities uaa aeciaea as to tne course mey would Dursue concerning the prisoner's case. The Judge said that bis principal difficulty In this cht,e was as lo the law regarding tbe punishment of escapes, which is by the law proportioned to that which would have been lulllcted upon conviction of the charge upon which the prisoner was confined: and In this case an Inquiry Into tbe punishment that would have been imposed by a United stales Court tor an offense against the United Htates laws, would pro bably he beyond tbe Jurisdiction of this Court. Re serving this point, the Court thought the Common wealth's case made out. The records ot the United States District Court were offered lu evidence, showing that the defendant was arrested by the authorities of tbe United Status, ana mac ne was awaiting trial in tuai uouri: anu also the commitment. Mr. Brooke arirued to tbe Jury: also that the law In a case like this required thai the original commitment of the defendant be proven Just anu legal before a conviction of the charge can be had. aud that after an Imprisonment of fourteen mouths a trial had not been bad by tbe United Htates. and there was no word to prove whether the commitment was lawful or otherwise. And it waa the humane duty of a Jury to Inquire Into this matter, and ascertain whether tbe defendant was Justly or un justly deprived of his liberty; for if the confinement were not proven Just be bas perfect right to regain bis liberty. Mr.'Kneass, upon the part of tbe Commonwealth, held that the law was, that If a man, confined for an Indictable otlense, broke Jail he was guilty ot a misde meanor: and it was only tbe duty of the Jury tn in quire into the question, whether be did break the Jail, and not whether tbe original commltmeui was lawful or uniawfnl. It had been proven that the offense for which the defendant was confined was Indictable, and tbat he had broken Jail; therefore the plain duty of the Jury was to convict. The Judge charged the Jury that If they believed tbe testimony o tie red by the defense an well as that offered by tbe Commonwealth, there was doubt that the defendant waa lawfully committed by the United States authorities: and they had also positive evidence of the' defendant's having broken Jail. Therefora, if they believed the witnesses, their decision of the question of fact was easily arrived at. As to the queHtlons of law raised, they were for the present overruled. Verdict guilty. A motion in arrest of Judgment for a new trial waa made. There being no other business ready the Jury were discharged until to morrow moriiiug at lo o'clock, end the Court adjourned until to-morrow morning at lo o'clock. FINANCE AND COMMERCE. Office or- thk Evkninu Tblkobafh,! Thursday, August 8, lt7. The Stock Market continued to maintain this morning the firmness and 6teady feel ing which we noted yesterday. Espe cially was this the case with respect to Govern ments, which, under the impulse of a strong speculative demand, were again on the advance. It should be remembered, in counting the chances ot the future, that there are large lots of Government securities held by parties who will at any moment throw them upon the mar ket, on the first appearance of monetary strin gency or baslness activity.

Under the direction of our three leading banking-houses Jay Cook A Co., Drexel 4 Co., and E. W. Clark A Co. this larpe sum has been successfully negotiated, the purchasers being mainly our own citizens. As everybody knows, the loan is of three dura tionsa 6-10, 10-15, and 16-25 years series. The short and long loan are nearly exhausted, while noue of the medium portion remain. Vigorously managed, the absorption f the loan has been rapid ana sure.
