Imperial Decree to Ike Alustrian Navy

[Fromliie GazuAte do V Onna: July 4.1
We have received for publication the following
decree:
As a mark of gratitude and respect for the emi
nent services rendered by my august brother,
His late Majesty the Emperor of Mexico, in aid
ing the development of the Austrian navy, whose
superiority has been established by the achieve
ment of many brilliant icsults, I hereby decree
that the Austrian navy celebrate aboard its vessels
a solemn mass for the dead, accompanied by the
usual mourning salutes, and that for seven weeks
the flag at the topmast be shrouded in crape.
(Signed) Fittowts J04E1 . 11.
Saltzbourg, July 3, 1867.
Napoleon Anxious to Disclaim the Ite..
rponsiblll oft Maximallanlo Death.
rumored e Opinion Nationa
It is hat the French ( Government. in
order to disapprove as promptly as possible the
charges-implying-that it should be held-responsi
ble for the sanguinary denouement of the Mexican
drama, intends publishing documents which have
been suppressed up to the present writing.. These
documents, it is averred. will show that ever
effort was made to induce Maximilian to quit
Mexico when Marshal Ilazaine left the country,
but that all attempts were rendered powerless by
the intrigues oil the Mexican clerical party.
Foreign Chastisement Uncalled for in
A telegram from Vienna announces that Ad
miral Tegethoff has been instructed to proceed
tOMeXico to recover the remains of the Emperor
Maximilian, and rumor adds that an Austrian
squadron will accompany the Admiral. The
latter intelligence appears to us wholly inadmis
sible. No squadron is wanted to bring back a
coffin. The mission of the conqueror of- Liss::
with a strong' force into Mexican- waters would
seem to announce the Intention of chastising
.Juarez and his partisans. We. most heartily
wish that means could be found to capture
the' bands which seized and put to death the
brother of Francis Joseph: but is the thing. pos
sible? On the other hand, would there not be as
much'injustice as barbarity in bombarding I Vera
Cniz. and ;bus punishing, for the Emperor's
murder, the town which remained the longest
faithful to the Empire? Austria will doubtless
understand, just like France, what is the most
prudent course at the present day. namely. to
intrust to the ambitious gladiators of • .Juarez
themselves the task of chastising each other, and
exterminating themselves turn by turn in san
guinary anarchy. Alas! why did we not adopt
that policy toward Juarez and his accomplices
little sooner:
:naximilian 7 s Execution Unwar
ranted by Events.
[From L'Opinion Nationalo, Jul 3
It is 'undoubted that the principle of public
safety will occupy the foremost rank among the.
circumstances which determined the Mexican
council a war to pass sentence of death upon
Maximilian:: NO intelligent man could have .
blamed the Mexicans for having made the maxim
to which we refer an inflexible rule of conduct,
had the destinies of 'the republic,-indeed, exacted
the death of the prisoner. But, in our
opinion, the safety of, Mexico required the
adoption of no cuch measure. Maximilian had
received the gre , atest and most terrible lesson ever
taught a prince. lie atoned for that which, he
iirst considered as a legitimate anibitiOn, by siff
'Hi , humiliation, and nneoneciVable agonies..
,•
The madness of his wife dealt him a most terrible
blow, after the affliction of which he yearned to
bid an eternal farewell to Mexico and return to
the Court of Francis Joseph, there to occupy
once more the position he had held and aban
doned to reign over the inhabitants of a foreign
land. The total failure 01 the expedition was a
sufficient gm:Jr:Mice in itself for Mexico that
no other attempt of the kind would be
made bY European Governments. and Max
imilian, having quitted' the country without
even hoping to return, had neither childreu
who might one day claim the throne by right of
inheritance, nor relations who would ever think
of seizing the crown of thorns that had torn the
Archduke's brow rather than adorned it. The
execution of Maximilian was 'not. then. com
manded by those inexorable events that occasion
ally occur during the violent crises of the social
and political transformation of nations. The
Republic was emerging' from a prOlonged and
cruel ,trial: greater brilliancy should have been
sited upon its aureola. The victory of the Mexi
c:!ns is for the greater part due to theiutervention
of the L. tilted states in their behalf: Mexico ought
to have endowed their triumph with a character
that would forever have honored .the, Mexican :
people and won for them the sympathies of the
civilized world.
The Estrangement Between
initial* and the Emperor of Austria.
[Palls Corrpondence of the. Londog 64air
The European colony in Mexico bid long re
marked the coldn6tl which exiited between the
Compte de Thun, Minister of Austria, and the
Emperor—who, howevet, was personally. at
tached to the tontine. It appears that the Em
pres,,Chailotte's Jae on the I.th of
,November,
was celebrated at the Palace at Mexico by
a brilliant evening party, at which several
stars of the literary ' world were present.
The Spanish poet. Portellit, read a piece
recognized; and. furthermore, that, his rights us
Archduke and member of the Imperial family,-
would only be restored to him at the expiration
of the five wears recognized by the family arrange
ment signed at 'Miramar. It appears that this des
, patch was the sole cause of the determination
taken by Emperor Maximilian to continue the
struggle against the Liberals without the-aid of
France. This it was that induced him to lidten to
DINES ac SHEAF F.
the arguments of M. Sorres, who offered him the
of poetry in honor of the young Empress, and a
drama written by him was performed in a thea
tre improvised for the occasion. All the Court
dignitaries, as well as the Corps Diploniatique
were . present, with the exception of the Austrian
and Belgian Ministers, Compte de Than and M.
de Blondel. This was the beginning of a mis
understanding between the Cabinets of Vienna
and Mexico. While the Emperor Maximilian
was traveling through some disturbed provinces
with General - castelnau, he received a telegram
from his brother, the Emperor of Austria,
informing him that if he returned his
title of Emperor would not 'be
support of the Mexican Conservatives. There
fore, the whole responsibility of this tragic end
rests on the House of AuStria. What confirms
this leport is the undoubted fact that but a few
days ago the Emperor Francis Joseph telegraphed
to his brother to return, promising that his family
Inheritance should be at once restored to him.
But this promise came too late. Maximilian had
already, through the treachery of the Republican
Lopez, delivered his sword U) Escobedo.
lhe Mexican Question Discuidsed in
thu_Erenell_Clin.mbem. - _ - -
Iu the sitting of the French legislative , body
the Mexican question was under discussion: M.
Thiers said
"The Mexican expedition has ended without
any good results to France. Our compatriots
remain exposed to greater losses than ever, Qur
commerce with Mexico is ruined, and the pres
tige of our greatness is compromised In America.
Even in Europe the Mexican imbroglio has ham
pered our attitude toward the great revolution
accomplished in Germany. The lesson of this
unhappy'expedition is that control and oppo
sition are necessary. The Mexican expedition
was approved by no one in France, but was,
nevertheless, -undertaken and continued for
several years. There are two ways of understand
ing monarchical government' The first is the
rule of a Prince with irresponsible Ministers, who
merely excu.te the orders they receive. The

second is a Prince governing with responsible
Ministers, who have to submit their views to him
as the head of the State, and can, if necessary,
lean upon a representative Assembly which is
able to oppose the Ministers, both, however, de
pendent upon public opinion. This is the form of
monarchy' toward which we must advance as
'speedily as possible.in-the interest of the Govern
ment and country."
Perfect silence prevailed in the Chamber during
this speech.
M. Granier de Cassag - nac defended the Mexican
expedition.
M. Jules Favre stated that the real idea of the
expedition was the subversion of the Mexican
Republic and the establishment of a throne iu
Mexico, but this intention had been concealed by
the Government. The French troops ought to
have brought back Maximilian, and thus have
saved France from the stain of blood which will
rest upon her. (Noisy intemiptions.]

of M. Fevre.
ITALY AND THE POPE.
Important Speech by the Holy Father.
[Rome-(July-4) Thnee.} ---
I have already mentioned that on Monday
evening the deputation of the Hundred Cities of
Italy presented a magnificent album to the Pope.
On that occasion Count Claudio Boschetti read
the address to his Holiness, which it Is not neces
sary to give, and the Pope replied. The answer
has not yet been published, but I have managed
to procure copy of it, and send it entire, as it
shows what the animus of the Pope is, and, to a
certain extent what will be his future policy.

"There upon that pile stands the angel who
subdued the demons. He holds a sword restored

to home had this day been called; I say that the
hour of its triumph has begun. Men have said
that I hate Italy.. No, Ido not hate her. I have
loved her always, and have blessed her; I Lyle
longed for her prosperity, and God knows how I
pray for her. Let us pray for this, I must at
pri:sent call it, unhappy nation. This is not
unity which is founded on egotism; that unity is
not blessed which destroy - 8 charity and justice,
which tramples under foot the right the

have all for their enemies; all stand in array

himself. The hour has dawned, our triumph
cannot foil, and if it - be - delayed let us suffer in
pence the inflictions Of Divine justice, I am
moved by this demonstration of affection—by
the sentiments which you have expressed to me

who is still in Naples, and yet his case has been
brought before a consistory, and he has received
the following communication : that unless he re
turn to Rome within five months he will be sus
pended from his bishopric, and be deprived of thd
owe (dam and pu,iett in all councils. Consider
ing the circumstances, the sentence is a mild one,
and much more so, probably, that his enemies,
Cardinal Caterini and others, would have de
sired. His best friends regret that his Emi
nence did not come up fpr this great occa
sion. of such solemn importance to the
church. Almost all the bishops of Southern Italy
have been here and have crowded around Francis
11. Hopes of a restoration are evidently not aban
ih,ned, for there Is no wish so mad that men will
nor, indulge in it and trust in its accomplishment.
Rome is, however, thinning fast, and all arc rush
ing away by steamer or by rail. Dr. Manning left
on Monday; he was one of the bishops who arrived
the earliest. The Irish bishops were latest in the
field, and at the time I reported it none had :u
-rn ed. They have since made up by their mini
hers for their delay. It is needless to say that
the ultramontane visitors are sinking under the
beat, which,as a sirocco wind is blowing, is more
oppressive than I ever remember it in Rome,

August. (Inc sits quietly id his chair and impro

Horrible Cruelties of the Turks in
WA .111.N(..r0N. July 21.—The latest official ac
counts from Crete give terrible reports of the
cruelties of the Turks. The Cretans having in
flicted severe punishment upon one of Omar
Pasha's spies, this general retaliates by actually
crucifying a Grecian priest in order to satiate his
revenge, and at the same time to cast odium upon,
the Christian roligicn, from which lie aposta
tized that he might become a Turk
ish general. He besieged a cavern
in which Greek women - and children
had taken refuge, and by closing the cavern with
stones left them to die of starvation. This rene
gade is repeating in Crete the scenes of carnage
w lic rali - d - Chlm so milimous in Koordlitan,
Syria and - Montenegro; . He boasts that he will
exterminate the Cretans. -The Turkish Govern
ment, staking its faith in this General,declinse for

It is stated that, as the Cretans are more heroic

The following; official news,dated Sphakia,July
t, has been received from Omar Paella:
Nearly all the districts have submitted to the
Turkish troops. and the insurgents have given up
their arms. On the . sth instant the Imperial
troops were disembarked at Case! Franco, and
to-day they routed the insurgents, occupied
several villages, and put the rebels to flight.
In the pursuit the soldiers occupied the
higheSt mountains of Sphakia. Everywhere
the insurgents are dispersed, and one body,
having taken refuge in the caverns of
the mountains, are closely invested by
the Imperial troops, who to-night will signal
their presence and success by sending up rockets
trout the top of the mountains. The disarma
ment of nearly all the districts has been effected
under most favorable auspicies and most suc
cessfully. More than 5,000 rides have been for
warded to the authorities. The officers who ar
rived here with the report from Omar Pacha
reported that the junction of the sea and land
forces in Sphakia was expected to take _place on

A Guy Fawkes Alain'. in Washington.
! WAsnixwrox. July 21.—A curious case was
tried here yesterday ,afterfroon, before Justice
. Walter, which in its first development gave good
promise 01 revealing the dark machinations of
another Guy Fawkes plot, but which after in
vestigation resulted in nothing worse than the
arrest of an individual for expressing au un
charitable opinion, accompanied by a very absurd
threat. A man named Samuel Strong, who lives
near the Capitol, presented himself at police head
quarters yesterday, in company with one of the
Capitolpolice, and asked tone Maj. Richards, the
Police Superintendent. The Superintendent
being absent, an officer then on duty heard his
complaint, which was. as follows: That while
sweeping off his pavement that morning he
heard one of the workmen engaged in paving
Maryland avenue say that if he could get several
barrels of gunpowder he would place them under
the Capitol and blow it up, with all the members
of Congress in it. He said that he had Mune
diately reported the fact to one or two Senators
and to Judge Fisher, all of whom had said the
matter ougit to be investigated at once.
'Upon this statement a warrant was issued by
Justice Walter, and placed in the hands of detec
tives Olarvoe and McDevitt, with the following
instructions: "Samuel Strong charges a certain
gentleman, name unknown, but can be pointed
out, with making threats towards members of
Congress, and Verily believes, that he will disturb
the peace in the •county. aforesaid. ,You are
hereby commanded immediately to apprehend
the said person, and bring him before me, a
justice of the peace."
The officers, accompanied by Mr. Strong, pro
ceeded to the spot where the would-be Guy
Fawkes was at work; but the latter,•suspeeting
the intentions of the officers,attenipted to escape.
He was speedily,captured however, and taken to
police headquarters. :He gave his name us
Charles Sorrel, and was employed as a
laborer to assist the pavers who were
paving Maryland' avenue. Mr. Sorrell
stated that on the morning before the day's
work commenced, Mr. Strong was sweeping the
sidewalk in front of his house, and became en
gaged in conversation with thei workmen, who
were sitting near by. Mr. Strong remarked that
Congress had about finished their labors in pass
ing the Supplementary Reconstruction bill, and I
would adjourn at three o'clock. Mr. Sorrell re
-plied-that--" Congress and_the_Capitol— Qught to
have been blown up before they passed it.
"Why, you are n rebel," said Mr. Strong; "I
will have you arrested right away. The Dry Tor
turas is the place for you."
The men then went to work, and "Mr. Strong ,
went into the house.
After hearing the :statements df both parties,
Justice Walter was about to dismiss the case,
and. nfornfed Mr: Sorrell that he would be dis
charged on giving security in the sum of $3OO
to keep the peace, when Mr. Strong arrived
with his witnesses, whereupon the Justice de
cided to hear the evidence in the case, which is as .
follows: • .

Mr. Flad's returning without the artisans, -,-

THE CRETAN INSURRECTION.

Turkish View of the Outbreak.
the pavement of the avenue sitting about the
' , -t-ailnany of whom I knew, as they had
nocrkeiffhrine at the Capitol before the war. I
had often heard them talking against Congress, and
they were engaged at this time in , usingabusive
language, I heard the prisoner say, "I wish I
could place fifty barrels of gunpowder under the
Capitol, and blow them to hell." I asked the
man who said it his name,- tout he would not tell
me. I then asked a number of the mechanics
what the man's name was who made that re
mark, but could not get any of them to answer
me. I came to the eity,and met Senator Harlan,
and told him the conversation I had heard, and
remarked that it was a habit of the secession
lets to abuse and threaten. Congress. He told me
to go with him to the Capitol, and he would see
about it. The Sergeant-at-Arius was notified of
the threatening language that had been used, and
he sent to the lieutenant of the Capitol police to
make the complaint. These workmen have con
stantly been talking secession talk about my
house, and about the next war that is impending,
and as I am a loyal man I do not like to hear it.
I spoke to Senators Harlan and Nye, and also to
Judge Fisher, and they all said that 1 was per
fectly right about it.
The next witness sworn was John E. Roberts,
connected with the Capitol pollee, and formerly
an attache of General Baker's detective force.
He said : •
I went to'the locality where the workmen were
engaged in paving the street near the Capitol,
about fifteen minutes past ten. o'clock this morn
ing. I asked some of them how long the brick
would last. They said, "that is nothing to us,
we have better work to do—it ,will be ,another
- day, and we will 4.. p it," at the, same time point
ing to the Capitol: They also. said they would
make good work with many other of the public
buildings in the city.
Prisoner—You did not hear me say so. You
did not see me point to the Capitol either.
Witness—l have sworn to what I' said.
Prisoner—Well, 1 don't care if you have. You
have not sworn that I pointed to the Capitol or
Jnade,any_remarks.-
Witness—Your word is not worth anything;
you are not under oath.
There being no other witnesses the 'case was
closed.
Justice Walter then said to the prisoner—" You
will know hereafter how to talk; and not to be so
free in speaking your feelings."
The prisoner replied, "Yes, sir, I did not know
that it was any harm to eay what I did."
The Justice announced that he should hold the
prisoner in &300 for his appearance hereafter,
whenever he may be wanted,, uud also for his
good behavior for six months. Security was
offered and Mr. Sorrell was released from custody,
"a wiser if not a better man."
Mr. Sorrell is a laboring man, about thirty
'five years of age, and served during , the war in
the United States Navy. Ile is regarded as a
quiet and peaceable citizen by his neighbors, and
has never previously been known to entertain
any desire for such sanguinary recreations as
blowing up members of Congress.—Herald.
The Prince of Wales.
A letter from London to the Chicago Journal
says:
The Prince of Wales is under. a cloud. No body seems willing to say exactly what the diffi
culty
is, but there is a difficulty somewhere, and
it does not require much trouble to hit upon the
right conjecture. His popularity has sadly
waned. • When toasted now at any public assem
bly:the response is very feeble and apathetic,.
while, on the contrary, the name of the Princess
elicits enthusiastic applause. The ordinary
papers chronicle his movements very briefly
and coldly, while the satirical , ones in
dulge in the most. pointed allusions and
terribly suggestive cartoons. One, the
other ,day, represents him in the character
of Hamlet, saying to the ghost of George the
Fourth, vanishing is the distance "I'll follow
thee," while John Bull, Hie faithful'Horatio, with
a very sad and earnest countenance, is endeavor
ing to hold, him i 6
.bacand an incarnate Vox
Populi in the background rooks sternly on. This
is terribly severe as well as terribly suggestive,
and this sort of thing is going on constantly)
Then again, in spite of his magnificent income of
quite half a million of dollars per annum, the
Prince is said to be already considerably involved
in pecuniary matters, and there is not only talk
of an appeal to Parliament for an increase of his
income, but equally loud insinuations that ,such
an appeal will be resisted.
I suppose the real truth is that the poor boy
was brought up too strictly, for the Queen was a
very severe mother, will the Prince Consort wag
almost Calvanistie in his religious notions, and
that as soon as he was thrown loose upon the
world he naturally wished to see some of the
Ordinary pleasures of high life, and so has been'
sowing wild oats with both hands. There does
not seem to be anything radically bad about him,
thonglihe comes of a wild stock, and it is to be
hoped that he will in time see the error 'of his
ways, and settle clown as a good. husband and
father. Of one thing he and the world may be
quite assured, and that is that the people of
England will not tolerate another George the
Fourth. He must become as much us possible
the antipodes of that erratic monarch, .or he will
never, especially if the Queen lives to the ordi
nary age, sit upon the English throne. I have
said it.
Fue»: the days of Don Iyhiskerando down
ward—nay, from mtlites barbati of the
classic age—there has been some mysterious
affinity between war and whiskers. Camp
bell makes "leagued oppression pour to
Northern wars her whiskered pandours," and
ever and anon sonic European State force's or
forbids.its soldiers to wear • -their beards in
particular fashion. Everybody remembers
John Leech's horror-struck cavalryman who
drops the Gazette he is reading with "Gra
cious Harry, infantry is going to grow a
mustache!" The other day the Austrian
troops were forbidden, under pains and penal
ties, to wear "mutton-chop" whiskers. Now,
Lord. Henry Lennox comes down upon the
official Tiritish tar with an order enjoining
officers to trim their whiskers (which =have
been tOO exuberant of late) down to" the
modest regulation length prescribed to their
men. Lord Henry's order is based on the
fact that, whereas beards arc tabooed in the
Royal Navy, some officers try to flank the
printed instructions by "wearing whiskers of
such inordinate size and length as to resemble
beards." What would his Lordship say to the
pair of beards that preside over our War
BuretuLand Navy Bureau? The fact is, this
beard business, as discussed in foreign armies
and navies, is rather 'ridiculous. The great
captains of old wore beards, and swore by
them,' too; as much as they liked. Our own
Revised Army Regulations are sensible on
this point: "The beard to be worn at the
pleasure of the individual; _uut when worn, to
be kept short and neatly trimmed." That is
restriction enough, and it avoids. such painful
and_exaspetating_proclamations as_ that_of
Lord Lennox to his brother Britons.

Maud Muller-611 that Summer day
Raked the"meadow sweet with hily;
Yet, looking down ihe distant lane,
She hoped the Judge would come again
But when he came with mile and bow
Mand only blushed and atammered"ffa-o-wr
And spoke of her "pa.," and wondered whether'
He'd giye consent they should• wed' together.
Old Muller buret is tears, and thew
Begged that the Judge would lend him "ten:"
➢'or trade was dull, and wages low,.
And the "craps" this year were• somewhat
And ere the langaid , sammer
Sweet Maud became the Judge's bride
But on the day that they were mated,
Maude brother Benwaa Intoxicated;
And Mand's relations, twelve in all,
Were very drunk in the Judge's Hall.
And when the sinniner came again i .
The young bride bore him babies twaia:
And the Judge was West, and thought it stranger
That bearing children made such a change;
For Mand grew broad, and red and• stout,
And the waist thit his arms clasped about
Wee more than he now could span, and he
Sighed as he pondered, ruefully, .
How that, which in Maud was native grace,
In Mrs: Jenkins was out of place.
And thought of the twins, and wished that they
Looked less like the man that raked the-hay
On Muller's farm, and dreamed with pain:
Of the day he wandqed down the lane; •
And looking down the dreary• track,
He half regretted that he came back;
For had he waited he might have wed
Sonic maiden fair and thorough bred.
For there be women fair as she,
Whose verbs and nouns do more agree
Alns for maiden, alas for Judge,
For the sentimental—that's one-half "fudge:"
For Maud soon thought the Judge a bore,
With all his learning, and all his lore.
And. the Judge would have bartered Maud's fair
face
For more refinement and social grace.
If of-words-and pen,
The -saddest are these, "it might have been."
More sad are those that we daily see,

—Lieutenant Baron .von. Rothkirch-Ptinten,. of
the Prussian Cuirassiers of the Guard, took odds
that he would walk eight, ride eight, and chive
eight German utiles, twenty-four in all, within.
twenty-fonr hours 'without resting. A German'
mile is four and three fifths English, the whole..
distance to be traveled being about one hundred
and ten English miles. The wager was decided
on the 9th ult., commencing at 4.15 P. M. The,
Baron walked his eight miles in ten hours and a
quarter; then rode his eight miles, on feurhorses,
mostly at a trot or walk, in four hours and a
quarter, and finally drove two pair of horses the
remaining eight miles in three hours and. fifty
two minutes, finishing his feat in eighteen holing
and twenty-two minutes without much fatigue
except from tender feet, and, as it was at the rate
of about four and a half miles an hour through
out, this effect could not be wondered at. Na
wonder men who can do four and a half miles au
hour by horse and foot for a wager can accom
plish such feats of marching against time as that
which won Sadowa.
