j Mexico— The Tehuantepec
Question Settled.
New Orleans, Feb. 21, P. M.
■\fr Albert Spicer arrived here to day in the
4 lbalros, from Vera Cruz. Mr. Spicer left the
t of Mexico on the 11th inst., with dispatch
cl y or Washington. He also brings the Tehu
t nee contract, which has been awarded to
V. G. Sloo, three hundred thousand dollars
iiavin ,r been paid the Mexican Government. —
Commissioners had left the Isthmus to deliver
Road to Mr. Sloo. Commissioners had al
o been appointed to treat with the American
Minister relative to the neutrality laws and the
protection of the Isthmus.
The Mexican Roundary Commissioners also
urived in the Albatros. They are en route for
Metamoras to meet the American Commis
sioners.
‘(’be Telegraphic Line between Vera Cruz
and the City of Mexico, was continually inter
rupted by the disaffected among the commu
nity. .
The Government had experienced another
I c hange, Ceballos having resigned, and been
-Aceeded by Lambarding, who was to serve as
Ifrfcidont until a popular election took place.—
’ praga had arrived in the City of Mexico, but
took no active part in political movements. It
is believed, however, that he will declare him
self Dictator when his troops arrive. Another
Commissioner had left Vera Crue on the, Ist
jnst., to visit Santa Anna and request his re
turn, and Puebla and Vera Cruz had pronounced
against his restoration to power. Commercial
affairs had declined, and business was much de
pressed.
The Marriage of Col. May.
A New York correspondent of the Albany
I Express, referring to the marriage of Col.
I Charles May, U. S. Army, to Miss Josephine
I Law, daughter of George Law, Esq., the steam-
I ship millionaire, says :
“The nuptials were celebrated in solemn
grandeur at the Dutch Reformed Church on 21st
street, at 7 o’clock, P. at 9 o’clock the
bride and bridegroom were received at the man
sion of Mr. Law, on sth avenue, by the compa
ny/nvited to participate in the festivities. The
bride was arrayed in a splendid white satin dress,
covered with rich Mechlin lace, the cost of
which, independent of jewels, was 81,500. The
company, numbering four hundred, were welcom
ed at Mr. Law’s hospitable mansion by the soul
stirring music of the Governor’s Island band.—
At 10 o’clock, Munck’s celebrated artists gave
the signal for the merry dance, which was hear
tily responded to, and continued till supper time.
The tables were laden with the choicest game,
the finest wines, and all the delicacies which the
imagination can conjecture. After supper, danc
ing was resumed. The company comprised the
wealthiest and most respectable of our citizens,
and the display of beauty and of riches would
seem incredible.”
(£tTiie ulack dress coat is doomed. An
ukase of His Imperial Highness, Napoleon 111.
has banished it from the saloons of Paris—and
Paris gives the vogue to all the world, we
y soon see it disappear from this Western
lisphere. Its successor is a blue velvet,
’ single-breasted, standing collar, steel buttons,
braided and gilt. ‘Ttie-o'ld black was a very un
pretending garment —and as it would last indefi
nitely for parties, it was cheap—very cheap,
compared with its more conspicuous successor.
It has had a pretty long reign—surveying some
half-dozen French dynasties, and yet the Paris
writers deplore its demise. They fear that the
gentlemen, in adopting the style of glaring cob
ors and decorated dress, will eclipse the ladies,
or torce them to resort to ruinous extravagance
to maintain their superiority.
Railroads. —Extension of the South-Western i
Rail Road.— The Engineers are now actively
engaged in surveying a route from Oglethorpe
to Americus. They have passed over one of the
proposed lines, and find the distance to be nine- j
teen and a half miles. They are now on a sec- j
ond route, and will probably survey a third,
when one of them wilt be selected. The pros- ;
pects are highly favorable for the early comple- I
tion of this road. All the stock required to be j
by the citizens of Sumter, has been sub- j
scribed for, and the first instalment paid in.
The terminus of this road, must, for some i
time, remain at Americus, which is now a flour
ishing village. Owing to its established char
acter for health, handsome location, and the
high reputation of its inhabitants, it will be re
sorted to as a place of residence for many weal
thy planters residing in less favored sections;
and we would not be surpiised if it should, in a
few years, be equal in business and population
to any other town in South-Western Georgia.—

At a called meeting of the Typographical corps, held in

well, Jos. J. Jones and C. H. Yarborough, to draft a pream
ble and resolutions.
After retiring for a short time, the committee returned,
ted reported following—which was unanimously adop-
Wherbas, It has pleased Almighty God to remove from
among us, by death, our worthy and cherished friend and
brother, James Me Kennell ; thus depriving this Associa

nearer and dearer still, of an obedient son, a dutiful hus
band, and an affectionate father! Therefore^
Resolved, That, “though dead, he yet liveth.” He
iveth in the grateful remembrance of the brotherhood ; he
hveth in his example of temperance, industry, and incor
ruptible probity ; he liveth in our affections, which he won
by his many virtues; he liveth, we trust, in Heaven, through
faith in Christ.
Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with his be
reaved family and friends, and will extend to them the
kindly feelings we cherished for him.
Resolved, That these resolutions be published in the
city papers, and that a copy of them be furnished the family
