France has been engaged for some time in the experiment of "civilizing" Mexico. We like the phrase, and applaud the philanthropic spirit which it expresses. Nothing is more admirable in the G hemisphere, and have taken up their march to hunting grounds beyond the reach of civilization. Mexico, where the native inhabitants cling with most tenacity to the soil, and mingle the muddy waters y sympathy, the good and great Napoleon has undertaken the benevolent enterprise of "civilizing" Mexico. Thirty-five or forty thousand French missionaries, under the auspices of the Abbe Bazaine, havlation, however, that, whether he does or not, we shall ourselves recognize the duties we owe to Mexico, and perform our part in the great work of civilization. It will perhaps be as well for Napoleothis was exclusively an American mission, and we cannot much longer postpone the conferment upon Mexico of those superior blessings which France, though willing, is, alas, incompetent to impart.
The temporary impulse which induced many Southern young men to think of emigrating to Brazil, Mexico, and other foreign countries, has, in great measure, subsided. It is impossible, even if there were great inducements, that a whole people should emigrate. If its prospects in the future are dark, then it is unmanly and ungenerous in those who have shared their prosperity to refuse to share their adversity. Then the sentiment of General Beauregard should be the universal sentiment: "I prefer to live here poor and forgotten than to be endowed with honor and riches in a foreign country." On the other hand, if there is a reasonable probability that we shall, in the end, weather the adverse storm, and be once more a happy and prosperous people, it is unwise to fly from transitory evils to others that we know not of. There is no place, after all, like home, and no home like our own sunny land. Home is where the heart is, where the dear ones are gathered together; and whether it
From Mexico — Imperial Successes. New York, December 13. --The steamer Columbia, from Havana on the 9th, has arrived, bringing Mexican dates to the 28th ultimo. The Republican General Dins is said to have been twice repulsed by the Imperialists in the district of Iguba. The French still hold Magattan. The Liberals have taken possession of San Sebastian. The Imperial journals are much exercised because twelve North Americans were captured in Duranco in uniform and armed. Leon Guzman, formerly one of the Cabinet, had taken up arms against the Empire, and was collecting a force. The French forces occupied Victoria November 17th. The enemy made a feeble resistance. The French--had no loss. Riva Palacio had taken command of the Liberal forces in Michoacan. Washington, December 13. --Official news has been received from Matamoras by Mr. Romero, the Mexican Minister, showing that General Escobedo, of the Independent army, was obliged to raise the siege, bot
From Mexico. New York, December 14. --Latest advices from Mexico sum up thus: From 20th to 30th of November seven thousand two hundred additional French troops had arrived at Vera Cruz. Three thousand more are daily looked for. There were heavy arrivals from France of war munitions. Notwithstanding these accesMexico sum up thus: From 20th to 30th of November seven thousand two hundred additional French troops had arrived at Vera Cruz. Three thousand more are daily looked for. There were heavy arrivals from France of war munitions. Notwithstanding these accessions, the Vera Cruz correspondent writes that the prospects of the Imperialists are gloomy. The last installment of troops brought the cholera to Vera Cruz. Juarez writes from San Francisco, under date of the 13th, to the Mexican Consul here, stating that the reason for ordering Ortegas's trial was because he left MexicMexico without permission, virtually abandoning the republican struggle. He adds: "My family and private interests both incline me to retire to private life as soon as an election can be held. I will cheerfully give up the Presidency, which has proved to me such a weighty burden." New York letters from Matamoras to the 26th
The Mexican mission. Philadelphia, Pa., December 14. --A special Washington dispatch to the Ledger says it is rumored that General Logan, immediately upon communication with the Government of Juarez. will propose a commercial treaty between the United States and Mexico, which shall secure to American citizens important rights upon the great lines of transit from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific coast, and such extension of the free list as will greatly extend the Mexican market for American manufactures; and in exchange for these privileges, which may be secured by military interposition if necessary, the United States is to loan twenty millions of dollars as a guarantee of Mexican bonds to that amount in behalf of the Mexican Republic. This last should be received with allowance.
