sitions themselves. In regard to the preservation of the status in the Territory of New Mexico, he alluded to the remarks of a distinguished Northern member of the Conference, in connection therewith, and the interpretation of the term which he gave. Mr. Wise asked if that member was or was not a member from Ohio — a member of the present Cabinet — by the name of Chase ? Mr. Tyler replied that that was a disclosure. He declined a direct answer to the question. The law of Mexico had emancipated slavery and substituted peonage; and an emigrant to the territory ceded to the United States now goes there surrounded with all the panoply of liberty. The gentleman from Kanawha had spoken of the protection of the common law. What protection could the common law give you on that soil, where the bondman has been emancipated ? In this connection he gave illustrations of conflicting opinions in decisions of the common law, showing that the opinion of Lord Stowell conflicted wi
Drowned. --Geo. W. Durst, who served in the Palmetto Regiment through the Mexican war, was drowned in the canal, near Augusta, Ga., on the 4th ult., while repairing a dam. The deceased acted well his part as a soldier in all the distinguished conflicts in which his regiment was engaged in Mexico, and received on his return home the medal awarded for gallantry by his generous State. At the Garita de Belin, in the heat of the combat, and whilst the men of Drum's Battery were being annihilated by the enemy, he several times constituted one of a number that volunteered from the South Carolina Regiment to aid that gallant officer in manning his gun; and when the last man of the Battery, and the heroic Captain himself had fallen, and several of the Palmettos besides, Durst was still standing at the gun.

It says: "Fancy a man, about 60 years of age, very dark and vulgar looking, with a long white beard, reaching half way to his waist, grey moustache and hair, with a hat of the old high- crowned, broad brim Mexican style black wool, a coat of striped sackcloth, pants of the same, a dirty white shirt, open down the bosom about 2,000 human beings, and they following him and kissing his feet and hands, and firmly believing him to be the God of Hosts. "I was with him all day — took supper with him, and had some conversation with him. I asked him about peace in Mexico and the U. States. He said there never would be peace again, in either country, until the world was destroyed. His mode of doctoring is curious. His medicines are 'aqua ardiente' and water. He rubs it on the affected parts while the patient i
