The French in Mexico.
NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—A special despatch
from Washington to the World says there
seems to be no doubt that, by the last
steamer from Europe. the State Department
received positive imformation from Paris
that the French troops will be withdrawn
within a stated early period.
The Herald's special despatch from Wash
ington says, the French Minister has ap
plied to the Stets Department for infor
mation regarding the recent capture from
the Imperialists of Bagdad on the Rio
Grande, but as no official despatches with
reference to the affair have been received,
be cannot be gratified.
Gen. Sheridan has been instructed from
Washington to investigate the affair, and
punish any United States soldiers that may
have been engaged in it.
Affairs on the Rio Grande
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 21.—Advices from
Brownsville to the 15th inst., give an im
partially correct statement of the Bagdad
affair.
A party of 123, most of whom being col
ored soldiers of the 118th U. S. Regiment,
under Col. Reed,crossed the river at Clarks
burg and divided into three squads.
At 4 o'clock, on the morning of the sth,
the first squad proceeded to a camp, which
they captured with about 400 prisoners and
4 pieces of artillery.
The second party proceeded to the ferry,
at which an Imperial guard of ten men were
stationed. The officer commanding the
guard stood his post bravely, emptying his
revolver, when he was shot down, where
upon the others surrendered. One Impe
rialist was killed and another wounded.
Three of the party proceeded to capture
Colonel Rice, the Post Commander, who
escaped while the party was in the house,
but was afterwards captured.
A squad of ten men were then detailed to
take the Antonia, and they fired on her,
killing a sergeant and wounding several
others. The Antonia fired a volley, killing
two and wounding one. The attacking
party then fired two Shots from a howitzer,
one of which passed through her just above
the water-line.
On the morning of the 6th a French frigate
lying outside shelled the place. Shots were
afterwards freely exchanged between the
Liberal howitzers on the beach,and a howit
zer boat from the French frigate, but no
damage was done, excepting the creating
of a panic among the citizens, who crossed
to the American bank.
A detachment of two hundred men from
the 118th Colored Infantry was sent over to
protect the American citizens,and remained
until the evening of the 7th, when a detach
ment of the 46th Colored Infantry relieved•
them, with instructions, it is said, to with
raw in case the Imperialists made an at
tack upon the town.
The French mail steamer which was ly
ing outside the bar left immediately after
the affair, probably for Vera Cruz.
Bagdad is nearly deserted. The plunder
and pillage of the town was uninterruptedly
kept up. A large amount of goods had
been crossed over to Clarksville. All the
stolen property that arrived at Brownsville
is seized and returned to the proper owners.
After wrangling for several days with
Escabado, regarding the right of command,
General Crawford left for New Orleans,
where he has since arrived, looking after
reinforcements and supplies.
A small force of . Liberals are fortifying
Bagdad with cotton bales, heavy guns, &e.
Three French transports arrived off the bar
on.the 13th.
General Mejia had commenced building
earthworks and mounting gum, two of
which are 64-pounders, between Matamoros
and the river, but in a position to command
Brownsville.
General Mejia had notified General Weit
zel that if he is attacked from the American
side he will open fire, and it is most likely
some of the shots will lodge in Brownsville.
General Giles A. Smith was immediately
sent over to ascertain General Mejia's in
tentions. The result of the meeting had not
transpired, but it was believed that a belli
gerent communication had been received,
and General Weitzel had ordered the re
building of old Fort Brown, which is being
mounted with thirty pounder Parrott guns.
A large pontoon train was being rapidly
put in good . order.
General Mejia, apprehending another
Liberal attack, is trying to make another
forced loan, which causes much uneasiness.
Several of their own contra-guerillas, in
attempting to desert, by crossing the 'river,
were drowned.
Anazimn citizens who chance to be visit-
Mg at Mabunoras are looked upon distrust
fully. Officers and men are not allowed ; to
cross the river.
On the 14th General Weitzel reviewed his
troops in Brownsville. , All were in good
health and spirits.
From Washington.
[Special Despatch to the Bulletin.]
WASMENGTON, Jan. 22.—The Reconstruc
tion Committee is still engaged in taking
evidence. The witnesses examined thus far
represent an unfavorable condition of affairs
at the South. The other side of the question
is yet to be brought out.
Secretary McCulloch's financial bill still
hangs fire in the Ways and Means com
mittee. It-will probably be reported to
morrow. Delegations of leading Democrats
from New York, Pennsylvania and New
England, are here in conference with the
President. They give him positive assur
ances that they will stand by his reconstruc
tion policy.
The Committee on Foreign A IThirs have
the Franco-Mexican matter under considera
tion.
WASHINGTON, Jan. M.—The Reconstruc
tion ComMittee have just decided to report
to-day an amendment to the Constitution to
the effect that whenever the elective
franchise shall be denied or
abridged in any State, on account of race or
color, all persons of such race or color
shall be excluded from the basis of repre
sentation. The report is signed by all the
members except one.
[Correspondence of the Associated Press.]
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.—Colonel Whittle
sey, Assistant Commissioner of the Bureau
of Refugees,Freedmen and abandoned lands
in North Carolina, reports that so generally
have the freedmen sought employment and
obtaineci it that the demand for laborers
cannot be easily supplied. He says "the
expectation that lands would be granted to
them by the government, a hope first kind
led by the rebel politicians in their effort to
fire the Southern heart and afterwards in
creased by the confiscation act, has now
passed away. All the officers of this bu
reau discountenanced such hopes by
public addresses and circulars widely
scattered; but so fixed had they become
before the war closed that it was not easy to
eradicate them. When, however, Christ
mas actually passed and the year ended
without:any gifts of the kind, it was admit
ted that we had told them the truth and
they had been deceived by the talk of their
former masters. So also, on the other hand,
have the :idle, conscience-begotten fears of
insurrection passed away. All admit that
a more quiet and orderly Christmas has
never been enjoyed in this region. The
history of the world May be challenged for
another instance of such good conduct in
similar circumstances as the freedmen have
thus far maintained."
From Harrisburg..
HARRISBURG, Jan. :!2, 1866.—Governor
Curtin made his appearance at the Execu
tive Chamber to-day, where he received a
large number of visitors, who called for the
transaction of official business, or to con
gratulate his Excellency on his safe return
to the State Capitol.
' It is supposed in official circles that the
Governor's message will not be ready for
delivery to the Legislature before Monday
next. As soon as the rush of visitors are
over to-day the Governor proposes to com
mence the preparation of his message.

State, having the authority and means to

Imperialists.
Fenianism in Canada.
NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—The Toronto (C. W. )
correspondent of the Herald states that the
reason for the postponement of the meeting
of Parliament till May next is the fear of a
Fenian invasion during the winter.
The Provincial Fenians, though in favor
of O'Mahony, are not opposed to an invasion
by Gen. Sweeny.
During one night last week word was
sent over by the discharged volunteers at
Ogdensburg that the Fenians were coming•
The garrison at Fort Wellington turned out
to receive them, when the volunteers fired
several shots, and the garrison, it is said be
haved very badly. The .volunteers then re
turned, satisfied with their sport.

Naval Intelligence.
The Gulf squadron, which at present
consists of 25 vessels, is to be reduced to the
same number as the Atlantic Squadron,
viz., 10 vessels. Three vessels of this squad
ron—the Althea, the J, C. Kuhn anu the
Narcissus—are now on their way to New
York. On their arrival they will probably
be sold,with a number of other vessels which
have been ordered to this port for that pur
pose.
The gunboat Swatara, one of the new
West Indian - Squadron, has, in a late trial
of her speed, made over 12 miles an hour.
This vessel has on board several midship
men who have undergone the new course
of tuition at the Naval Academy, which is
intended to make our young naval officers
proficient not only in ',seamanship but also
in naval engineering. The system thus far
works well, and will no doubt prove of
great benefit to the service.

zilian squadron.is on her way to New York,
having been relieved by the Brooklyn. The
Susquehanna has been attached to the Bra
zilian squadron nearly one year.
• The sloop-of-war Lancaster of the Pacific
squadron will shortly be ordered North,the
Powhatan having been ordered to relieve
her., The vessel has been on her present
station over five years.
The United States steamer Rhode Island,
flagship of the neW- West India squadron,
will, sail from Fortress Monroe on Wedes
day. She is to relieve the De Soto, which
has represented the United States in those
waters for the past two years. The De Soto
is atpresent engaged in conveying Secretary
Seward and family on a pleasure trip to
Havana, and, on her return, she will pro
bably be laid up or sold, being a purchased
vessel.
The new screw frigate Wampanoag will
soon be ready for her trial trip. This vessel
is said to be one of the swiftest of her class,
of which there are now building a large
fleet. She is 3,281 tons burden and will
carry seventeen guns.
Frightful Explosion In Indiana—Five
Men Hilted and Three Wounded.
[From the hvensville (Ind) Courier.
Yesterday we received the startling in
telligence of the explosion of a portable
steam saw mill on Blue Grass creek, near
Millersburg, about fourteen miles from this
city, on last Saturday, in which almost an
entire, family lost their lives, or were hor
ribly mangled. They were busily engaged
sawing a pile of wood, anxious to finish the
job before the day ended, and forgetting to
try the water gauge, they were unaware
that the supply of water had become ex
banked. Suddenly the boiler exploded
with a terrific noise, spreading death and
destruction around,
Those killed outright were an old man
named Jake Steinmetz, Mike Steinmetz, his
son, who was found about fifty yards off,
lying against a tree, With a large piece of
iron near him, having been carried that
distance by the force of the explosion; Hen
ry Dennis; a man whose name we could not
learn, but who was long and favorably
known in the neighborhood as a quiet, in
dustrious and hard working man.
The wounded were Mr. Klei, a piece of
the wreck having struck him and lodged in
his heart, the wound is Mortal; Geo. Stein
metz, slightly in the arm; Geo. Steinmetz's
grandfather, slightly in the head (we were
unable to learn his name.) The funeral of
the unfortunate men took place Sunday and
was attended by a crowd of sorrowing
friends. All five men were buried in one
grave.
EMIGRATION TO MISSOURI.—A letter from
St. Louis says: "It is somewhat singular
that in spite of the cold weather, many
emigrants are constantly arriving in Mis
souri. Most of them are of the poorer sort,
in search of employment. Though there is
not much offering in the city or State,there
is a steady demand from the South, through
various persons here. In the spring the
provision for the comfort of emigrants
passing through the city will be ample.
The Mullanphy Emigrant Fund (a legacy
left by a public spirited citizen, to be ap
plied to helping emigrants Os now in a con
dition to become useful to the emigrant.
The Commissioners have rented a commo
dious building, which they are fitting up as
a depot; and under certain restrictions, des
t ituteemigrants are entitled to receive small
sum's of money to help them while seeking
work: The State Board of Emigration is
preparing to scatter printed information in
relation to the advantages of NI issu ri, broad
cast through the old country as well as in
the East."

to such jury, founded upon public rumor,
newspaper statements, etc. It was made

Persona•.
Joseph Parker, of Stoneham, Me„ who is
90 years old, has a hundred and five grand
children and great grandchildren living.
Six of his grandsons and three of his great
grandsons were in the Union army. Seven
of them came home without having re
ceived a wound, one was wounded in the
arm, and one, belonging to the 13th Maine
regiment, was made prisoner at Richmond
and died at Belle-Isle. The old gentleman
is hale and hearty.
Henry L. Diffenbach, has retired from the
Clinton Deviocrat,published at Lock Haven
Pa., and is succeed by J. H. Orth, Esq.
S. S. Brooks, one of the earliest newspa
per publishers west of the Allegheny Moun
tains, died in Quincy, Illinois, on the 11th
instant.
Three sudden deaths have occurred at
New Brunswick, N. J., within a few days
past; that of Mrs. Lydia Buckelow, Mr.
Kimble Dunham, and J. V. M. Wyckoff,
Esq.
Mr. Philip North, a native of England
and for many years a citizen of Bellefonte' .
was found dead on the floor of the Presbyte- 9
rian church in this place, on Saturday even
ing. Mr. North was sexton of the church,
and was, previous to the discovery of his
dead body, engaged in his duties of attend
ing the fires and preparing the church for
the evening services.
A Tennessee lady was in Washington, in
terceding for a pardon for her rebel hus
band. Her application to the President was
well received, and he treated her with great
consideration and kindness. In speaking of
her interview with him, the lady remarked,
that the President was very cordial and
gracious, spoke very kindly of her husband
and her family, and invited her to stay at
the White House while she remained in
Washington. " Well,'' said her friend, "you
accepted the President's hospitality?" "No,"
remarked the lady, " we never knew the
Johnsons."
The Columbus (Ga.) Sun understands
that a company of prominent gentlemen of
that city will leave for Mexico at an early
day. Among them is Judge W. G. Swan,
formerly of Knoxville, and an ex-member
of the rebel Congress, who for some time
past has been following his profession at
Columbus. The Sun says the number of
colonists will be increased at New Orleans
to some twenty-six persons.
A TERRIBLE AFFRAY occurred Saturday
on a train of cars on the Memphis and
Nashville Railroad. The train was near
Collierville, thirty miles west of Memphis.
Two colored soldiers, probably intoxicated,
were on board. One of them charged a
white man with stealing his canteen. The
white man thereupon assailed the negro,
when the latter drew a pistol and shot him
dead. Miscellaneous shooting then com
menced between blacks and whites, in
which one white man was severely and
several slightly injured. The negro who
killed the white man jumped off the train,
but his comrade was riddled with bullets,
and had his throat cut from ear to ear.
MIIRDER.—DanieI Conner, one of the most
respectable citizens of Floyd county, Va.,
was murdered on the 15th ultimo, at the
