We quote what General Price says about the
lands which have been set apart by Maxi-
milisn for this colony:
“They are about seventy miles from Vera
Cruz, and on the road leading thence to the
City of Mexico. This road js being rapidly
constructed, anil is now in operation to
within fifteen miles of this place, and will be
completed to the town of Cardova within a
few months, and to the City of Mexico within
two years. These lands arc three thousand
feet above the level of the sea, and are as fer
tile as any of the Platte lands. [Note.—The
Platte purchase, which is the northwestern
■part of Missouri, comprises the richest lands
in that State,) and perhaps in the Union.—
Ed. News.] They are unsurpassed in the
irodnetion of com, tobacco, coffee, vegeta-
iles of every kind, and all the tropical fruits.
The lands, which lie between this elevated
country and the coast, produce as much and
as good cotton as the Louisiana lands.
We are practically as near the markets of
New York and New Orleans as the people of
Central Missouri are; and the climate is the
liest in the world. The thermometer never
rises above ninety degrees, nor falls below
seventy. The water is excellent, and we can
get ice from the mountains covered with per
petual snow, which are in plain sight, and
about thirty miles distant. The Imperial
Government lias purchased the lands from
the original proprietors, anil sells them to ns
at one dollar an acre.
' “Our colony commences with about thirty
Confederates, all of whom are in high spirits,
and expect to make fortunes Vaising coffee.
A gentleman who has lived here a few years,
sold his lost year's coffee crop for sixteen
thousand dollars. It was produced on sixty
acres of land. He works only ten hands.
He tells me that his fruit trees can supply his
table with a-different variety of fruit each
day in the year. His coffee plantation, sha
ded with every species of fruit tree laden
with fruit, and the walks bordered with pine

A Boston Joi-bnai. on Sumner and Wil
son.—The Boston Pott, ever true to justice
and the country, thus speaks of the disorgan
izing course of the two Massachusetts Sena
tors in congress:
Tlie consolation the country will experience
from the dignified anil amicable tone of the
president’s message will be somewhat dis
turbed by the evident purpose of Mr. Sum
ner and Mr. Wilson to present all the obsta-
clej in ther power to offer against a rcstora-
tiojj of that union of kind feelings and
action in the discharge of political du
ties which the National executive, is la
boring so sincerely to inaugurate. Mr.
Sumner seems to have taxed his
agination in multiplying requirements
which grant nothing to the justice and
fidelity of Southern citizens, but which would
impose upon them a humiliating suhscrvgncy
to an arrogant assumption of superiority in
all that'distinguishes civilization from barbar
ism. Mr. Wilson is anxious not to be outstrip
ped in dictatorial presumption, and follows
the steps of his colleague in bristling opposi
tion to the President’s policy of restoration.
This determination to prolong internecine
strife and to delay the healing of its wounds
to the last hou»—merely to gratify personal
animosity or t<rsubserve party interests—we
cannot believe will escape the just rebnko

New Orleans just received here, says news
has just reached the city of a collision which

New. Y’ork, Dec. 9.—At a session ofthc
Senate of tlie Fenian Brotherhood, held in
New York on the 9tli, articles of impeach
ment were filled against John O’Mahony for
perfidy and malfeasance of office. The
charges and specifications, which are very
minute and voluminous, were served on Mr.
O’Mahony the tollowing day with a notice to
put in a plea in response within twenty-fonr
hours, under a penalty of having the charge
of defraud preferred against him. Mr.
O’Mahoney, liqving taken no steps against
the indictment preferred against him,
the Senate to-day resolved itself into
a court of judicature according . to the
provisions of the'Constitution, and having
investigated the charges declared them
proved, and deposed Mr. O’Mahony from
the position of president. A unanimous
vote was then passed calling upon Vice Pres
ident 'W. R. Roberts to be qualified by taking
the oath of office, on which that gentleman
was sworn in, stipulating beforehand that no
compensation should be attached to the po
sition while lie occupied it. The Secretary
of the Treasury, B. D. Killion, lias also befcn
deposed on grounds similar to those advanced
against Mr. O’Mahony.

A member of Major General Howard's staff,
who accompanied Sherman in his great cam
paign through Georgia, has given tho subject
considerable attention, and makes the general
estimate of two hundred per cent, profit on a
judicious investment in cotton raising in the
State during the coming season.
In general corroboration of the foregoing
estimates is that .FepuWished from the New
York Tribunem the circular of the “South
ern Land Company,” 31 Broadway, which is
substantially .as follows:
Cost of plantation, 1000 acres. $10,000
- “ stocking same. 1 . 5,000
50 hands, at $25 per month per hand 15,600
Allow for taxes and all other expenses 10,000
Total V....*37,500
Result—500 acres of cotton, 500 bales, 500
pounds per bale, 250,000 pounds, which; at
20 cents per pound,'yields $50,060.'
In this case an allowance is made for 500
acres in-woodland and corn, and plantation
and stock would still be on hand.
The accuracy of these estimates will be
fully tested in a few months, both by associa
ted and individual enterprise, tor the pros-
lect is certainly flattering, and there is a
arge surplus capital in the country which will
not let it go unipproved. .Vox,’

Dec. 11.—At the close of the reading of
the journal, and after the transaction of some
unimportant business, Mr. Kirbt, of Chat
tooga, moved to suspend the rules to take up
the resolution bringing on tjic election of U
S. Senators.
Mr. DuBose, of Hancock, was opposed to
going into an election at this time. It was
important that the legislation in reference to
freedmen should l>c perfected at as curly
day as possible. Under existing circuc
stances, they could very well defer the cle
tion of Senators until after the inauguration
of the Governor. By that time they might
be able to avail themselves of the services of
a distinguished citizen, whom the people of
Georgia delight to honor, and who, he felt
confident, would receive the almost unam
mous vote of the Genera! Assembly for a po
rtion which he was so well qualified to fill
! to the advantage and honor of the State ami
I country. The impediment! ut present exist
ing in the wny of his accepting the position
would, it was hoped, bj, that time, be re
moved. . . :*■*•«■»* .olbdj: ^ 4 *
Mr. Kirhy Insisted upon taking up the
resolution. He thought, if the people could,
see the action of the House in this matter,
they would stand aghast at their delay. The
President had intimated that he desired a
'qx^edy organization of the State Government,
and the election of Senators and Representa
tives. . The people desired the same thing.
So far us they were concerned, they had acted
promptly. They had elected a Convention
and a Lcvridaturr, and they expected the
meml«ers of that body to elect Senators and
other officers, and proceed with the legisla
tion that was so much needed in the present
unsettled condition of the country. There
was another reason. He desired to hold
these elections at once so that the candidates
might go home, and no longer occupy the
attention of members. He §nw no propriety
in further postponement, in the expectation
that the dUtiiurnishod gentleman alluded to
would accept the position of Senator. He
hud understood from wlint he considered
good authority that th&i gentleman had put
hiueelf in communication with the Prudilent,
v aaJ that ibst President hail advised atrainst
!iV lieruraing a candidate lor that office.
- Mr. Putter, of Warren, was prepared to
state that the declaration of the speaker was
hori^Si. No such intimation of the
'« wi*boa in regard to the aenator-
bcei> ifiveo. He Olr. P.) believed

adoption of tbe amendment of the constitu
tion abolishing slavery everywhere under the
government of the United States is sufficient
security to allow all the States representation
on the floor of congn**. ix c -would, protect
“ State governments in all tlieir constitution
al rights, the general government in its whole
constitutional vigor.” But Messrs. Sumner,
Wilson & Co., have a longing for arbitrary
power and summary punishment, and so long
ns they can be judges and executioners enjoy
their positions hugely and strive to, retain
them; but should they find themselves upon
an equality with those they would fetter—
the limbs of both parties free—the contest
would be quite a different affair; tbisis what
they fear anil seek to avoid.
Preservation of “Fresh Meat,”—A year
ago n private association was formed in Eng
land for the purpose of discovering the best
method of supplying tlie markets of that
counity with fresh animal food from thore
parts of tlie world where, comparatively
speaking, it is produced in excessive quanti
ties ami almost without cost. Inconsequence
of the efforts of this occasion, a Mr. Rich
ard Jones has, it is said, discovered a process,'
already patented, whereby beef, mutton,
poultry, nml other articles of the kind, may
“bo preserved in a fresh raw state for an in
definite period, and under all circumstances
of climate and temperature.” The company
has a well knowE and respectable board of
directors to carry the patent into operation.
Considering the high and continually increas
ing price of fresh meat in England, the in
vention is of great value.
'If the statements of the English papers arc
correct, the application of this discovery to
animal food, thus preserved in the far West,
and brought to New York, where it could be
safely kept and sold at any period of the
year, is of great importance to the citizens of
New Y’ork. Turkeys, quails; partridges and
venison, killed at Christmas, and thus kept
till midsummer, would be no small addition
to the larder: and cheap beif. brought fre»h
by this process from Texas, where it costs less
than $o to raise a good four-year old steer,
would “ lie well worthy of a grace as langV
my arm." It would confer immense benefits
upon every da?.- of the emumuatap f>
We find nodeseriptb n of the method by
which the preservation is effected. The capi
tal of the company Is £100,000, half of which
is already subscribed; and the owner of a
large estate in Australia has offered to “ sup
ply the company with meat of the finest qual
ity at a penny (two cent?) per pound."

The. abandonment ofthc States of Sonora, Si-

is confirmed. Tlie Liberals are daily gaining
ground, and the number of their forces rapid
ly increasing. Tlie Iturbide family have re

the political claims they may have to the Mex

Mr. Angel Ifttrblde has given his own child
to Maximilian, and the boy, only two years
old, has been adopted by Maximilian, and
made an Imperial Prince. Mrs..Iturbide, hi9
mother, has been the victim of an infamous
plot. She has beat taken away from her son
after being compelled to sign a paper renounc
ing ber rights as a mother. It has been de

penal Minister of the Treasury states that the

dition, that the necessary’ expenses arc $40,

OBITUARY.
Died, in Macon connty Ga., October let, 18G5,
Mrs. Maby C. Rooebs, in her C5th year. One
more of earths weary Pilgrims has reached the
haven of rest. Though disease had claimed her
for his victim for nearly eight years, yet her last
stroke was sndden and unexpected. Being as well
usual, she was seated at the table lor dinner,
when suddenly she raised her eyes, and with
look filled with love and affection, she gazed for
moment into the fake of her daughter, then the
fatal stroke shot through her already emaciated
frame, and shesank back into her chair speechless,
She breathed gently and- softly for a few hours,
and that beautiful Sabbath evening, as a halo of
light was playing on the sky after the Suns de
cline, her spirit took its flight, to hail the-glorions
light of Heaven; there to sing with unnumbered
angels around the throne of God. Such a sweet
hour for tfifj death of a Christian! One so fitted to
subdue the heart, and lead the soul to God. Her
atmeuons deprived her of many sweet ’privileges
we enjoy, but those she regretted most, were at
tending public worship, and reading the bible.
Often while reading to her of the rich rewards of
the finally faithful, her withered fiice would bright
en, and her eyes dim with age, would h* filled with
tears,, she then had a sweet foretaste of neaven,
but now it is changed to glad fruition.
“She is at borne, that brighter home,
She sighed so oft to gain, ,
That furrowed brow is shining nodf.
The body free from pain.”
Many were the attractions in Heaven for her,
the infirmities of age crept on, trouble* Sore and
heavy came, all of which she bore with the patience
that characterizes a true Christian. She lived
sec nearly all her family cross the dirk valley and
shadow of death. May God bless the two that are
left, and save the family, unbroken in Heaven.
