The act ur Juarez lifna one of inhuman and

tality and with merely a pretence of bang neces
sary for the public safety. In returning a ver
- diet on the whole occurrences as they are before
us, we May safely say the execation of Maxi- .
Dalian was a glaring crime beige heaven and
men; and flint to justify it by the counter accuse
. tion brought against him—at fast sight suspi
cious. but in reality deceptive—is to eompound
the oPeralions of intended justice with those of
deliberate and prsmeditatcd vengeance.
IFrom the London Tinies, - ,lalv 6.1.
* The good feeling and the common
sense of the world will reject the„ excuses which
the new governors of Mexico will probably
make for this crime. European States can at
leastexpress their opinion of it as the reception
they give to whatever persons Jnarez may think
fit to send them as his representatives. The feel
iris excited will not be confined to the Old World.
e know not how the government of Washing
ton exerted itself to save the Archduke: but if the
American press represents the opinion of its
readers, there has existed among Americans a pro
-found-sympathy—for_the fallenAustrian,_and
desire that be should be allowed to depart frolai
the country in safety. The feeling of the Ameri
cans in Paris, alWeis among the most educated
and refined of their countrymen, has bedh
shown by their determination to abandon or
defer the celebration of the anniversary of inde
pendence. Such an act is the more creditable to
them since their political sympathies are of
course with the cause of Juarez, whose authority
the United States have ever recognized, and to
whom the American people haveiven important
material assistance: the Texan frontier having
been, in fact, the Libi•ral base of operations, and
the quarter from which Juarez and his party re
ceived Supplies of ev ,, ry sort. There 6A general
Consent that this has been a cruel and dastardly
act, and such a feeling will only be deepened .by
time. We cannot but believe that after so many
years o:anarchy and political vengeance the cup
of Mexican evil doing is wai nigh 'full, and'
the time approaches when the hind must be:
sessed by an abler, a nobler and . a bettor race.
The Effect on the Paris Exhibition.
A Paris letter of the filth of July in the London
ewe ays:—The dulness which overspreads the
Exhibition will not pass away for many days.
The court has gone into mourning, the A're? are
' countermanded, the Emperor is in retireinetit,
and men's minds arc perplexed with their dreams
about the immediate future. The death of Max-
Malan and the very depressed •siate. existing,
they declare, is a death blow to the Exhibition.
It is at- least a heavy calamity to the exhi
bitors, who have been doing a good trade
with the majesties, excellencies; graces
and lordships who have been crowd
g the courts and galleries. The gala carriage
may- be- housed again atVersailiel,-;.. The flags,
may be folded; the pyrotechnic artists may; pack
up their red and blue fire. The last of the sov
ereigns him come, and soon there will remain in,
— Paris only Napoleon the Third, in no mood for
triumphal arches nor brilliant effect. with the
ghost of Maximilian at his elbow. Most of the
'shopkeepers have been doing a brisk business.
It is now the turn of the _liaison de :Mull. The
only sovereign in men's miuds is the miserable
widow at Miratatr. The coming of Sultan and
Emperor is postponed, and yesterday night's re
gatta was but a flat affair.

upon those who have prevented the establishment

For hh, acts the world will henceforth hold the.

the Juarists,.is still filibustering at the lidad of-at
Landful of men, and has issued a prochtumaoll
declaring Tamaulipas a sovereign Stale,
and Gomez its sovereign Dictator. In his efforts
to fret possession of the State, Gomez is seconded

troops for the purpose of retaking Tampico,

A strong influence is being brought to hear

support both in money and men from this side of

The Luinber Business of the Northwest
A partial idea of the extent of the lumber
business of the NorthweSt can be obtained
from the following article, which we copy
from the St. Paul PresB:
- Over one hundred million feet of logs
Lave floated upon the spring flOods• down the
upper tributaries of the Mississippi, and are
now safely boomed at various points on the
Mississippi Above the falls of St. Anthony, to
be sawed into as many feet of lumber this
year—n large increase overthe supply of - I.ny
previous year. ' _
"A nearly equal amount, or about 90,01)0,006
of feet, have come down the tributaries
of the St: Croix: The Chippewa, - and other
streams of Northern Wisconsin, also yielded
an unusual amount of logs, and the supply
from the Upper Mississippi is now abuudiut
to run all the mills upon the Mississippi as
far down as St. Lonis. The high prices which
ruled in the lumber market last year, and the
ilivorable logging season last winter. have
concurred to produce corresponding result's
in-all-the lumber region on-the -shores of the
lakes.
t"The pinerieS of Eastern Wisconsin and_ of
the Michigan peninsula have yielded im
mensely-increased supplies of lumber to the
Chicago market, from which, as well as from
the Upper Mississippi,the lowa and Nebraska
markets are largely supplied. It happens
that the prodigious over-stocking of the lum
ber market,stiikes a period of profound bnsi-
DVSS dCpreS§ioll, extending throughout the
whole Mississippi valley - , and many hundreds
of millions of feet of lumber are about to be
thrown upon the' market when the demand
fim lumberis almost paralyzed by the suspen
sion of:building operations.
"The necessary consequence of these
'agonistic conditions of supply and demand
must inevitably be a great decline in the price
of lumber, which, in the last year• or two, has
gone up in this State, under the stimulus of a
suddenly-expanded market and of two or
three years of drought, to a standard extrava
gantly disproportionate
. to the cost of pro
duction.
Curious. but. True.
A fortunate gentleman, who we judge Must
have sonic connection with the _Millennium,
relates to us the .most astonishing fact con=
cerning his umbrella that it has ever been our
lot to be made acquainted with. The gem-
Bernal' is well-known in this city, and bears
a high character for veracity.
On his way to Boston, not less than six
months ago, he left his umbrella in the cars
on this side of the river at New London. On
reaching the other side he discovered his loss,
and gave his card to a madman, who said he
was not exactly connected with the company,
but only •`worked rOund;": and might. or
might not recross the river; and also might
or might not attend to the request of the gen
tleman to request somebody else to send the
umbrella to New Haven. Our' friend heard
nu more of his property, and set it down to
profit and loss, -utter getting wet several
times while insanely waiting for its re-appear
ance, and spoiling two new hats.
NONWCOMCS the most singular part of the
story. On this bright morning, the eleventh
day of July,,with no rain threatening, he
went to his office, and 10, on his table, lay,
the veritable umbrella left in the ,cars six
months ago ! It was neatly done up in paper,
and had his card attached to the handle.
What could he do? Were his eyes his own?
hid Ire exist ? Where is Victor Hugo, -to
send a letter to the 'Longshore l'ollillll4llcoM
niendipg this extraordinary act of fidelity to
the great principles of international enmity?
Where is George 11% McCracken, that we
may have the case suitably reported to the
Secretary of State, and by him to Mr. Motley
at Vienna?
New Arrangement or Propeller Screws.
An interesting experiment in the new ap
plication of motor power to steam vessels has
'just been tried at Troy, by means of a small
propeller constructed liar the purpose.
The improvement consists iri qtiadrupling
the number of screws—that is, instead of
working a boat with a single screw at the
stern, two screws are applied at either end of
extra keels, which are set on both sides of the
bottom, and directly under the craft.
It is claimed that a very great increase of
speed is gained by this new arrangement,
and in the trial trip at Troy; the propeller cer
tainly moved throth the water with great
celerity.
The inventor, a Mr. Arnold, has been eleven
years, it is said, perfecting this improvement,
and should its success be as decided as the re
cent trial would seem to promise, the present
speed or steam navigation may be considera
bly augmented, while its safety will in no de
gree be lessened, but rather increased, by the
adoption of this new system.
—The number of employes at the Springfield
Armory bas been increased to 1,200, and will
probably be still further increased during the
rummer.' The work of altering the old model
muskets into breech-loaders is progress ing briskly, and 26,000 have already undergone
tranWOrwation.

NEW YORK, July 17.-4 large fire broke out
this morning in Jersey City which has laid in
ruins the buildings, lumber, and material stored
in the space hounded by Green street on the
west, by Morgan street on the nortk, Bay on the
south, and the river on the past side.
The loss of Peter Field & Co. is considered
very great. but no definite estimate could be
reached. It will probably reach $50,000, on
which it is only known there was an insurance
of $30,000. A number of chests of tools belong
ing to workmen were lost. A large amount of
lumber was saved by being upset into the river.
These buildings were Dodge's Planing Mill
and Box Factory, Field 6: Bros. Machine Shop
and Furnace, Paint Works. Derby, Snow and
Prentiss's Planing Mill, Van Buren's Planing and
Scroll Sawing Shop, the Hudson River Cement
Victory, and - several smaller honses - and - stables: -
The fire is supposed to have originated in
Dodge's Planing Mill and Box Factory, and was
first discovered at about 5 o'clock this morning.
It appears that the watchman in the 'machine
. shop had been at work. on the boilers there dur
ing the night - until one o'clock this morning, and
fell asleep. Between 4 and 5 he was awakened
by the watchman of the mill, who bedtime aware
of the lire by the barking of a large dog inside.
The alarm was promptly Wen; and two
streams were thrown upon the lire: Very soon the
buildings, which were mostly framework, filled
with dry material, yielded to the flames.
which were swept by the eddying winds, until
the entire structure, with all its contents, seethed
to fall before the eyes into a long Stream of glow
ing. cinders.
The machine shop owned by Peter Fields .&
Bros., adjoining. caught tire, and though a brick
structure, was soon destroyed. the, walls crumh

or chimney standing. The fire spread rapidly to
the adjoining and smaller buildings, as well as to
the lumber. spread along the piers, and Van
Bnren'a carving and scroll sawing shop was com
pletely destroyed with most of its contents.
A large numeer of engines arrived from Ho

vice in preventiug the flames from completely
enveloping Derby. Snow e Prentiss's planing
mill, which caught tire a score of times Lint was
saved, though the side next the burnt buildings
was scorched and 'charred 'to an extent that
heated the rooms inside like an oven.
The hands connected with this mill had several
hose in operation. 'A stable and dwelling house
to the rear of this building, and belonging to the
owners of the mill, were completely destroyed:
The horses were removed in time; also,the house,.
hold effects, and the inmates of the dwelling.
Lumber and other material stored on the end of
the pier were saved through the exertions of
three steam tugs, who played vigorous streams
along the piers and arrested the devouring pro
gress of the thitues. The engines were still at
- work - orrthe burning material all — the morning,
but the lire has spent itself.
Although no precise and full information can
be obtained yet as to the losses and insurance,
the following items are Obtained on good autho
rity, and it is estimated by the Mayor of Jersey
City the loss will amount to $500,000. Of this

[Mt sE-Cwitlutted from Fourth Edition.]
On motion of Mr. Cobb (Wis.) the President
was requested to communicate all information
received at the several departments of the Guv
mment, touching the organization of parties for
the real or preluded purpose of avenging the
death of the 'Archduke Maximilian, or of in ter
vudng in Mexican affairs. Also, whether any
measures have been Wien to prevent such or
ganization.or the Fa - nit of :toy Such expedition.
Mr. Butler (Mass.) rose to a personal explana
tion in reference to jut article in the National ht
tOi.v.neer of yesterday, commenting on Mr.
lildridge's statement stone days since, that t h e
rebel Commissioner of Exchange, Gen. pull, had
uttered to deliver up without equivalent 20,000
talon prisoners Of - war, sick and wounded; which
oiler had been refused. lie denied the truth of
this statement, and had read copies of letters and
telegrams which had passed on that subject in
the fall of 1864.
These letters are minted in the louse Execu
tive Document No: :;e, Second Session, Thirty
cigh th Congress, under the heading of exchange
of prisoners.
Nr. Butler eharacterized all of the allegatiota
in the article as untrue in fact, as untrue in
statement and untrue in inference, but the use
of epithets could by no means descrbe the
author. The documents which he had caused
to be read would satisfy the country that there
was no truth whatever in the charge of
those who saw in their own Government only
wrong and in the rebels only right; that the
United States had failed in no respect in its duty
to the sick and wounded soldiers. He would,
therefore, say to -:the I ntelligencer, which the
sworn testimony. iu a court of justice had
lately shown to be a chosen and accredited organ
of John Wilkes Booth ; that if not satisfied with
that explanation, he would go a little farther and
show how its filelldS treated Amerlean:soldiers in
their hands. There was irrefragible proof that
they took our colored soldiers, captured- in war
and with their uniforms on, and turned them over
to their Masters as slaves.
lii sent to the Clerk's desk and had read several
affidavits hearing on that point. His remedy was
to employ an equal number of prisoners of war
of the Virginia reserve at work in the trenches.
The medicine virorked potently. The outrage was
stopped within twenty-four hours. He hue .
not adverted in -these remarks to
the. qtte'stion on whom the blame
for the non exchange .of . prisoners rested.
Whenever that question came up, he should .be
quite prepared to cU:ellSB it. The question now
