Imperial Shifts for Money and Popular Distress Depreciation of the Currency and Fears of a National Bankruptcy. Vienna, Aug. 27. Debt is pressing heavily on the land. One sees It at every tarn, on every side, in each new decree, In the accumulation f ile Government lotteries, In the deteriora tion of its paper, in the sales of railroads, of forests, of mines; of telegraph lines even. The people are taxed to the uttermost, Govern ment works are crippled for waut of funds, pri vate industry is slack through the sluggish cir culation of a semi-worthless currency, manu factures of every sort are either stopped entirely or working at quarter rates, roads even are neglected merely for the waut of the where withal to carry on the repairs. True, the national debt of Austria is far smaller than that of the United States, and the premium on silver of the iormer country is far below that placed on eold in the latter; but then here p we lack that strong, determined executive will which makes profit of difficulties, income out of debt, prosperity out of trouble; that energy which sees obstacles but to sur mount them; that vitality which lives and prospers and flourishes, unable (were it willing) to succumb. Here the case is very different, and how it will end it is not difficult to say, unless some radical reform changes the lace of things. It is quite impossible to exaggerate the d faculties, the ehifts, the thwarting obstacles this country is laborine under. Attempt after attempt and trials without end have been made, but unsuccessfully, to raise the public credit, to prop up shallow artifices on Which to raise money. The past year has been one of Makeshifts and expedients, and puerile means and futile attempts to make "both ends meet." Every attempt the Government has mado to borrow money or find capital has been from its own wretched, incapable, insolvent populations. Instead of assisting them and itself by encour aging the production of home manufactures, or lacilitating the means oi exports, the transpor tation of goods, their eale, it contents itself with squeezing the purses (excellent word, much in voeue in China, where its force is fully under stood) of a dry, exhausted people. Paper money of every denomination, under the most spurious imaginable guarantee, or with, none whatever, is the currency of the land, and if what I learn at a late hour be true, the already gigantic amount in the market is to be increased by a further issue ot Government bonds a paper the only security for which is the delay of a national bankruptcy an event, bj-the-way, which is by some persons thought not so very Improbable. Baron Becke, so it is confidently reported in well-informed circles, has lately obtained Im- gerial sanction to the issue of 250,000,000 more tate notes, of five, ten, and fifty florins. The Hew Free Press of the 25th contains an extra sheet devoted to a statement of the man ner in which the financial prospects of the country might and should he bettered. The improvement ot the present railroads and the immediate construction of others is the plan nrnnnsnrt. Without doubt it is a very worthy. excellent, and practical mode, but, without doubt also, it will not be attempted. TnE cermanTarliament. Speech of the King Prussia at the Opening of the Session. A telegiam from Berliu dated on the 10th of Rpr.temher renorts: The North German Par liament was opened to-day by the King of Prussia, who delivered the lollowtng speech frnm Ihfi throne: Illustrious, noble, and honorable gentlemen nf thfi Parliament of the North German Con federation: At the close of the first Parliament of the North German Confederation 1 was aoie to pinrpcs mv confidence that the popular repre sentatives of the Federal States would not refuse their constitutional recognition of that which the Parliament has created in unison tth the different Governments. It affords me great satisfaction to find that I was not deceived in that confidence. The Constitution of the North German Con federation has, in a constitutional manner, be come a law in all the Federal States. The Federal Couucil has entered upon its fuucliona, and to-day I herewith, with joyiul confidence, bid welcome in my name, and in the name of my illustrious allies, to the first Parliament assembled on the basis of the Federal Constitu tion. Immediately after the promulgation ot the Federal Constitution an important step was taken towards regulating the national relations of the Confederation with the States of South Germany. The German sentiments of the allied governments have created lor the Zollverein a new basis corresponding with the altered ctr ' enmstances, and a treaty concluded on the account and approved by the Federal Coun cil will be laid before vou. The budget of the Confederation will form a prominent subject for your deliberation. Tho careful limitation of the expenditure of absolute requirement will permit of nearly three-quarters of it being defrayed by tho Confederations' on revenue; and a cartful estimate of these revenues warrants the belief that the estimated contributions of the Federal States will fully BUi ,,e 1 cowr tl)e whole expenditure. Bills have been laid before the Federal Coun cil, and others ure intended, which have for their objects the settlement of such matters on the domain of federal legislation as the present line admits of and requires. A law will be introduced upon freedom of set tlement, which is meant to prepare the further development of the common right of nationality founded by the Constitution. A bill upon liability to military service will be laid before you, with the object of making this common right of nationality apply to the army and at the same time, with the object of col lecting in a manner easily to be surveyed the provisions which are contained in the constitu tion, partly in a distinct manner and partly by reference to Prussian legislation on liability to military service. A bill upon the passport system alms at doing away with antiquated restrictions upon iuter. course, and at forming the basis of an agree JHlBt between tfie vWdmttoa UUl the South German States, corresponding with the national iniercs-ts. A law upon weights and measures will be brooeht forward with the view of regulating the weights and measures ot the Confederal ion ou a common principle and ia a way required by in ternational intercourse. The position ol the post as a Federal institu tion renders legislative arrauiiements necessary on the subect of the postal system generally to the postal tarilf. The establishment of Federal consulates requires a legal determination on the rights and duties connected with the excise of the office of consul. The unity ot the mercantile marine requires a basis in the shape on law of the nationality of trading ships. I hope that tbeso laws, which devote a first but decisive step towards the completion of the Federal constitution, will meet with your and the Federal Council's approval. The delibera tions from which proceeded the Federal con stitution, were guided by the conviction that the great task of the Confederation could only be accomplished by accommodating, through reciprocal advances, special interests to those ot a more general aad national character. This same conviction has found expression in the discussion of the Federal Council, and will, I confidently believe, form tho basis of your deliberations. With this thought, honored gen tlemen, direct your efforts to the completion of the work founded by the Federal Contitution. It is a work of peace to which you are called, and I trust that with God's blessing the Father land will enjoy in peace the fruits of your labor. MEXICAN AFFAIRS. Letter from President Juarez on the Pre sidency He Consents to be a Candidate at the Request of General Porflrlo Diaz Immigration to be Fostered An Idea Borrowed from MaxImlHlan Movements of Canales, Cortina, Car bajal and Negrete. Mikb, Mexico, August 23. Senor Don An tonio lores, first constitutional Judge of this city, or Alcada, recently received a character istic letter from President Juarez, which, we translate for the benefit of our readers: Mkxico. August 11. My Illustrious Friend Peace leema at last 10 be dawning over our distracted coun try, aud I shall Indeed be glatl when tho elections are over and all discordant elements sutiduei. I for warded you a copy of my letter resigning all claim to tlie presidency; but so Importunate bave been tlie BtTBuaslous of my friend i, aud especially ol Ueneral ilazand the army, that I bave reluctantly consented to the use of my name in tlie coming elections. It would bave been more desirable to me to bave retired from a position the duties of which I have endeavored faithfully to perioral throughout those long dark f ears of oppression and misfortune. My only object n consenting to be a candidate is lor the purpose of frur Iratlng the wicked designs of men who care very little fur the welfare ana happiness ot our poor country. By the hands of eenor lion Uuurra, I send you several documents which will show you what course I bave been pursuing in regard to the enemies and traitors or Mexico. My sole ambition Is peace for Mexico aud prosperity for her people. It mutters not to me to what patriot hands Its destinies are conlided, so that our beloved and unlortunate nation Is happy. Kxtremely anxious as I am to return to private life, I shall shrink Irora no duty conlided to me by a brave aud suffering people. I still htar of distentions on tho northern frontier. Advise our friends to abide by the decision ot the popular will, to avoid lawlessness and return to the business pursuits of llle. for therein pros perity lies. Above all, assure citizens from the Btates who are abiding with you that the supreme Govern ment of Mexico holds In high esteem the services of the great republic of the north In their behalf In the recent crisis, and that Its citizens shall be well pro tected. Now, farewell. My lrleud Benor Guerritwlll convey to you my hlnh appreciation of your friendship. BKNITO JUAUKZ. Accompanying this letter were several circu lars relative to the elections, and one concern ing the immigration scheme of the late Maxi milian. Of one thing be assured, that great Inducements will in due time be held out to immigrants by the uoverninont. rue leading men of Mexico are fully satisfied that only through It will the resources of their country ever become luiiy ueveiopeu. Aiuenuaun win be heartily welcomed, and we believe that If our countrymen could only be convinced of the stability oi anyone form of Mexican govern ment, there wouia De a steaay stream oi seiners from tlie Northern States of the Union. No country is so rich in mineral wealth gold and silver, copper, lead, and iron while on the nigh tauieianu none ou pruuuutivc. muueg mjo. nuity, enterprise, and development are alone wanting to make Mexico one of the finest na tions of the world, commercially and politi cally. There are bright prospects yet in store for this country, but only when It becomes Anglicized. With the exception of outlawry on the part of Canales' disorganized banditti, the northern frontier is quiet. Cortina has retired to the Texan side of the Rio Grande, at Cortina rancbe. Cortina is a large land owner in Texas, and but for his wealth would long since have been "brought to grief" for his murders and robt erlt s bv the United States authorities. The f ublle yet remember his celebrated raid about be commencement of our Rebellion, when the SlierilTof Brownsville was killed. There is an indictment against Cortina for murder yet pending at that place; but, nevertheless, he goes everywhere, is lavish with his money, aud commits outrages on either side of the river with Impunity, while our officers tenst and toady to htm; at least they bave done it. There lias Lteu too mucu oi tne "uvaie me, i 11 uchlio von" policy on this frontier by the United Klates officials. Carvsjal is resting in quiet at his haclonda, while Neerete, at last accounts, was intriguing against Juarez and in favor of Ortega. How ever, the "Citizen President" will take care that the latter shall not be in bis way for another Presidential term. The end will probably be that Ortega may find himself by October In pri son, instead of a successful candidate for the highest office In the gilt of the Mexicans. This is what Juarez will resort to to put a cheok to all opposition. The condition of the frontier towns is really deplorable. The elections once over, confidence will be restored and business Will go abead. The lengthened struggle for national life by ibe two great powers norm and south of the Rio Grande has proved disastrous to the towns contiguous to tbat river. Besides, the appearance of the yellow fever at Matamo ras and adjacent towns, and the remembrance of the futal scourge tea years ago along the river, assist the general languor of trade, war and then pestilence what could be more disas trous to business yv. ,x. fieruia. Arrival of Maximilian's Remains at Mexico City Probable Success of Admi ral Tegethoff's Mission Serious Charge Against Minister Mejla by General Felix Diaz. Mexico City, Sept. 7, via Vora Cruz, Sept 7. The remains of the late Kmperor Maximilian have arrived herefrom Oueretaro. Notwltn. standing the difficulties that were placed in Admiral Tegethofl's way, there is every proba bility that the remains will be delivered to the envoy of the Austrian imperial house. Decree Commuting the Penalty of Con fiscation. The following decree was issued by President Juarez ou the l'Jth of August: Mexico, August 12, 1857. Whereat, The circum stances owing to which It was deemed proper to Im pose, as a general rule, the penally of confiscation ou various persons considered guilty of treason to their country; and, for the same reason, deeming the oppor tunity arrived for the exerolse of clemency by the commutation of said penalty In regard to the majo rity of those subject to It Into a flue, I have decreed H'herrai, The law of August 18, 18C3, refers both to the personal and pecuniary punlshmeuc -of tbose Judged guilty of treusou, said pecuniary penalty Is now modified In the sense of the following articles; and as regards the personal pains, they shall remain as al present, subject only to whatever shall b given by the respective ministers. The penalty of confisca tion Imposed by the law or August 16, 18(1, shall re main commuted as a general rule, and by way of an ludult into a fine to be regulated by the Ministry of the Treasury. The full penally of con llHoatlon, however, is eicluslvely reserved tor such cases aa those ol traitors to whom the grace or pardon has not been extended on acoouiit or aggravating circumstances connected with the career ol such tral tora, and which circumstances bave been defined by the Ueneral Government. All those comprised within the terms ot the law ot August It, lsss, from the moment mat they committed the crime of trea son to their country, lost all right lo recover auy claims or crkllM which they held agalusl the national Tteasury, wbivu viMhu4 ftwi deOi bttwue iivtf- for h completely extinguished and of no vain what ever. In coiiKeiienc. whether the ronll-cntion of their property be enforced, or only commuted with a line, or even when n Ither confiscation or fine be Im posed, the personal claims or credits of all comprised within the terms of said law shall be ot no value whatever. And neither their present nor luiure restoration to the rights of cltlrensuip shall entitle Biicb parties to recover the value ot said claims or credits. BENITO JUARKZ. Confiscation of a Printing House. The finest printing ettablishment in Merino that of Senorea Andrade J Kscalante, in the capital, has been confiscated and sold at public auction. It was at this noose tbat the tocietiud, JHario del Jmpcrio, and V ' Kre Aouvulle were printed.

General Felix Diaz, brother of General Por flrlo Diaz, in a letter dated Mexioo, Aug. 21, 1867, written in reply to one from Minister Igle tins, Inquiring who the party was who traitor ously sold seven hundred cargoes of corn to tne French, states that it was Ueneral ignaoto Mejla, the present Minister of War in President Juarez's Cablntt. lie cites Gouorals Vinoentu Rlvas Palaclo and Luis Mler y Teran, Henor Domingo Galloso, and others aa witnesses, and adds that "in order to nudtr RLancl his own indignation wben Gomez, whom he captured at llualusoo delivering the corn, showed him in presence of Teraa, Gulloto, and others, a safe conduct signed bv General MeJlH, It Is necessary lo be.tr lu mi nil tbat at that time I found myself obliged to order the summary execution ot several uufor tunaie wretches whom 1 caught selling small quantities of corn, beans, etc., to the enemy. Hence I at ouce gave my word of honor that I would at all risks seek the proper occasion to bave this influential brought to punishment as well. Under such circumstances I co iik' not do less than publish the letter to which your Excellency refers. I would have gone farther than tbat, but my brother, General Porflrlo Diaz, besought me to refrain, and I was weak enough to listen to bis request. THE OIIIO CAMPAIGN. Ben Wade's Speech In Cincinnati He Glories Kspeclally In Having Labored on a Canal with Irishmen Ills Vutnre Course In Case He Becomes a Judge In Israel. Cincinnati, Sept. 21. About one thousand persons assembled this evening In the Court street market space to hear Senator Beu Wade. Mr. Eggleston occupied the attention of the audience till the arrival of Mr. Wade, who spoke substantially as follows: Though pretty much used up from his exertions on beball of the Republican party, he was still anxious to make another eOort In advocacy of the great cause be so long and ardently espoused. Home Kepubllcau papers had been carping al him lately because he neglected to dilate oa the rights of tabor, but be wished to Inform the world tbat the proudest period ol his life was when he worked upon a canal as a common laborer. He worked with Irishmen, and did bis work as well as any of them, aud he wished some of bis old Irish friends were present to listen to his utterance, lie was the first to suggest the aboli tion of imprisonment fordebt, and tbe first to work through Congress tbe Homestead bill. Meterrlng to his Kansas speech, he stild it was an entire forgery. lie attached himself to the Republican parly because It helped to build up the laborer, and be wished lo impress on his Irish friends the fact that they had allied themselves to their political enemies. His own Idea was to rescue labor from the contempt and hardship to which It was subjected, but his older Irish co-laborers were ndverae to that because they failed in sympatny for laborers of Afri can descent. He thought the Republican party the purest and greatest thai ever existed, but it they do not continue In their course of righteousness, tbe Almlgbty. who has been supporting tbera jp to this time, will very soon desert them. Alluding to the eilorts of Boutbern representatives to got seats la ConareSB be BHid: WMblugtun would have hunt the same men, but a traitorous and treacherous Presi dent, Andrew Jobnson, had Invited these same Rebels to come back and take a part In the Govern ment. As tor himself, a Rebel andheshould never sit side by side. He believed tbat tne conquered' btates of the South lay at the mercy ot Congress, and that It would be unsafe to allow Rebels to come bank to Congress, where, In lellowshlp with the De mocracy of the Worth, they coula accomplish the destiuctiou of this Government. He said John son was making tbe most terrible usurpa tions to effect the demoralization of the Republican party; that his recent acts were in defiance ot Con gress, but that there was a power lu front of the throne which may yet prove stronger than the larooe itself. He admitted he voted for Johnson, but if God would forgive him for that, his other offenses would little trouble him. He (Wade) might yet be Judge in Israel and bave occasion yet to pass Judgment ou tbe cftenses of this man Jobnson. lor whose abuse of office as President be should certainly Indict the highest penalty. Stanton be pronounced the best and greatest Minister of War the world ever saw. And why. he asked, was Stauton disgraced and why was tbe brave Phil, Bherldau removed from his com mand f Because they carried out the will of the f eople. The Senator, after speaking a conalderaole ime. passed to the question ot negro suffrage, uuon which we have hitherto given his views, tie u a tor Sherman spoke briefly afterwards, alluding to the Issues of the campaign, aud then the audieuce quietly dispersed, Mr. Pendleton on Repudiation. The Democrats of Cleveland, Ohio, having serenaded Messrs. George H. Pendletou and Georee E. Pugb, at a hotel in that citv. on the evening of theism Inst., Mr. Pendleton in his response took occasion to explain his position in relation to tbe payment of the five-twoaty bonds. He said: Let me state to you the position. We have an enormous debt. We have a rate ot taxation beyond all example oppressive. We have a system of legal tender notes aud a system of national banks. Iam sorry we bave seen them. I did not vote for them, and am not responsible for them. They are great evils. Theveuabtto be Rotten rid of. And irihev present auy means of assisting us In getting rid of ineui, we ouiui to neiz. iu me non-inieresi paying debt, consisting of greenback and unliquidated dubt, amoanls to about Isoo.OOO.uoo. Tbe proposition of toe Republicans Is lo convert this debt Into boads which rmv interest In sold. The Interest on iliwn hmwli will be M8,lH0,0oo In gold annually. The result will De to increase ny mat amount the expenses, to convert active cupital luto lnactlva canltal. and thus to Increase the number of tnose who do not pay taxes, aud to lucrease the burdens of tbose who do pay taxes. I maintain that this debt ought not to be so converted that theee six nnn nrni I n gold should be saved. There are four buudred mil lions of these bonds ia the Treasury as sennritv fir IheNatlonal Bank currency. They arerepreeeuted by a nearly equal amount of bank notes. They call for twenty-four millions of dollars In gold annually, as Interest, flow, 1 maintain that these bonds should be redeemed In greenbacks. The result woulrl be that tbe greenbacks would t ike the nlace o.' thn hanlc notes, which would be called lu, and that twenty four million dollars of Interest would be saved. If that iweuty-rour minions were added to the foriv eight millions of which I have spoken, you have seventy-two millions in gold auuually; ana tuis, property compouuaeu, would pay tbe whole debt, principal and interest, lu fifteen years. And now observe that thus fur I have not nrn. posed to add one dollar to your taxes, nor one dollar to tbe cm r. m y. This process ot redemption can be prehKed as fast as the business and values of the coun try will bear an expansion or the currency. I am sallslied that they can bear more now. 1 urn satisfied that the good to result will more than compensate for the evils. How far the expansion may be safely cur ried, I cannot pretend, with exactness, to say, AH that 1 maintain Is this: That Just as rapidly as ihe prosperous condition of business will permit It, tbe bonds should be redeemed In greentmeks; for Just so fast will the interest be paid, the taxes be reduced, and labor be relieved from the burdens which now so heavily oppress it.

Tbe Recent Election In Colorado A Democratic Majority Tbe Question of Admission as a State. Denveb, Colorado, Sept. 16. The election in this Territory in August, resulted in the choice of a Democratic Council and a Republican House. Tbe Council will stand: Democrats, 7; Republicans 6. The House will stand: Repub licans, 14; democrats. 12. xne mates question entered largely into the contest, and the result is in the Council: State men, 4; anti-State men, 0. In the House: State men, 9; autl Slate men, 17. The submission of the State question to the people would result, I feel assured, in its defeat by a two-thirds vote. Of the nineteen counties of the Territory the Republicans carry nine and the Democrats ten. In two Republican counties Democratic Councilmen are elected. In none ofttbe counties are the majorities clearly deci sive. In some instances a majority of eight or ten decides the contest. The populous counties of Gilpin and arapahoe were carried by less than 100 majority each. The aggregate vote gives a majority in the Territory to the Demo crats. N. X. 'limss. Tbe Case of Rev.
