your credentials as Special Messenger and Minis?
ter Pie ni po en ti arv of the Uni tod State?, and that
von have been in New Orleans since December
last. The government of the Republic regrets
that these reasons should have prevented you
from coming to present your credentials in order
to commence the duties of y JUT office; for it would
be very satisfactory for the government to receive
von in your character as the representative of tho
United Slat?s/-" ' ' ??; ?
You also informed me that the satisfaction with
which the Government of the United States looked
on the retreat of the French from Mexico, and the
advance of the army of the Constitutional Govern?
ment toward the capital, has been disturbed by in?
formation received concerning the severity used
with the prisoner s of war taken at San Jacinto.
You also- mentioned that- it waa tue desire of .the
United Stat s Government that.in case Maximilian
mid his partisans were captured they- shoal i be
treated with humanity as prisoners of var. The
enemies of the RepubJo, wishing to produce an un?
favorable impression of the same, have endea?
vored to falsity and spread inaccurate informa?
tion concerning the case of the prisoners of San
Jacinto. The greater part of them, a consid?
erable ' number, were perdohed,. bat; punishment
tras: meted out id seme' of them.' They -were not
LOO ed upon simply as prisoners of war, but aa.
offenders against the laws of nations slid thone

selves to every kind of excess and crime in the
Jity of Zacatecas, because they were fighting like
ulbbuatexa, without oouniry, without nag, and as
morcenaries, paid to shed the blood of Mexicans
who defend their independence and their institu?
tions. Some, not a ew, of those foreigners taken
tt San. Jacinto were conducted to Zacatecas,
where thev have been treated with mao J beno vo?
le ace, the fame as those taken elsewhere have
been and are treated because th>re w^re not so
many cir cums tances of special oulpabihty. The
invariable conduct of the Government of the Re?
public, and that observed by the officers of her
v rm es, bsa be n te respect life and treat wi th the
neatest consideration the prisoners taken from
:he-French forces; but tm their part,' and by-order
A their principal chief, they frequently asaassi

-Many of the principal officers of the French

put to. death indefensible persons.and old men,
*ho were not able to bear arms against them. Not;
?rithstandingthis, the Government of the Beoub
lio and her oncers in general, far from re taha ti ne.
is ihey were provoked to do, have ever observed
the most humane conduct, giving constant exam

scarcely reached our any look-out ; away in the
North the huge old sun swung low along the hori?

clock in our grandfather's parlor corner. We all
stood silent, looking at.our watches. When both
hands came together at 12, midnight, the full
round orb hung triumphantly above tbe wave-a

FTBST ANNUAL REPORT OF THE LADIES' MUTUAL AID
ASSOCIATION, JUNE Ora, 1867.
To the members of this Association we would
respectfully suggest a retrospective view of the
picture presented to the mind's eye one year ago,
if they would soe the good which has been done,
in. that short period, by their united efforts.
Then, aa an unorganized hanufnl of ladies, sur?
rounded by distress, and uncertainty of the future
on every nand, we stood willing to relieve the
pressing pecuniary necessities of the community
in which we moved, yet scarcely able to com?
prehend how such benefit coula be produced
without means of any description, even to com?
mence the apparently vast project which had
been concdvedin the* minds of a few who had
placed their trust in an overruling Providence,
and launched boldly out to meet the difficulties of
their position.
June 5th, 18GC, a call was made to all who might
wish to become interested in the noble object of
benefiting those who were in d stress, to meet at
one of the rooms of the Mills House, which bad
been kindly offered by the proprietor for the occa?
sion, but owing to the inclemency of the weather,
only a few were able to attend. The Association,
however, waa organized that afternoon, at the
suggestion of a clergyman of this city, and the
week following snottier meeting was appointed at
the Hibernian Hall, which was much more suc?
cessful The officers were then elected, consisting
of a President, vice-President, Secretary and
Treasurer, Board of Managers, Superintendent,
and eight Ward Superintendents. Subscriptions
wore taken np after the meeting, and it waa resolv?
ed that the Association should go immediately
into operation.
Measures were' very rsoon afterwards taken to
Erocure suitable rooms for the ladies to carry oat
Heir plan8 to the full extent,' and suoh were round
at the Deposit orv, Chalmers street, which the
trustees kindly placed at the disposai of tho la?
dies, provided we could undertake the necessary
repairs. Hore, ever since, a weekly meeting has
been held by the Bo rd of Managers, to arrange
the business of the Association; and the work has
been distributed every Monday to the Ward (super?
intendents, and through them to as many needy
aa our limited means has enabled us to. supply.
The quantity of material for work, in proportion
to the wants of the community, has necessarily
been restricted; but. to those who were within
reach of its aid, it certainly has produced great
benefit-we would rather say acknowledged benefit.
In order to refond ourselves for the outlay made
each week in the purchase of material for work, it
became necessary to dispose of the articles thus
accumulating on our. hands, and for this purpose,
one of the rooms at the Depository was opened as
a "Sales Room," where ono or more of the mem?
bers of th? Board of Managers have taken their
turn each day throughout the year in attending
personally to this department. The proceeds of
these sales hare, it is true, rarely ever met the
expense of the succeeding woek, on account of the
difficulty of disposing of the stock ; bot it has
been a great assistance, and with tho increase of
outside interest in the cause, has enabled us 'to
continue our efforts op to the present time.
Frequently, when the members of the Associa.ion
have been in great perplexity, nat knowing "where
to look for aia, bat supported by s strang faith,
that He, in whom we had at first placed our trust,
and who had permitted us to commence our work
of charity, would not allow it to be frustrated, a
Providential hand has been outstretched to us
from a source whence, perhaps, we bad leist ex?
pected assistance; and thoa have we been enabled,
time after time, when reduced to the lowest point,
to r?alise renewed hopefubess. ?\ ' . :.
On one occasion, when almost in despair, at the
end of the last quarter. $2000 was sent from the
' 'St. Louis Southern R. lief Association'' to Charles?
ton, to he distributed to the greatest ud'Tntage
for tho benefit of the suffering ??abitauts.^tf
this sum ?1000 waa appropriated by tho committee
to the Mutual Al? Association BB the best organ
for its distribution. Tue Assoc ation immediately
set aside dothing to the value ?f $300 fer gra?
tuitous distribution.
Several times hare donations of $60 and $100
been received from oar owa people, and from these
at th? North, who, hearing of the dark doods
which encircled our infant Association and threat?
ened it with premature destruction, came with
kmd hand .ind interested hearts to remove our
fears, and anco more placed in oar power the
means of usefulness. Zn thia connection, we would
mention tho receipt of ? $100 at one time, and more
recently of a sewing machine from the New York
Southern Belief As ooiation, which we have al?
ready acknowledged with sincere thanks to the
donors.
Daring the "year we have been called opon to
make several changes in oar officers, in conse?
quence of their change of reeddenoe, Among
these we would mention the less of our first Super?
intendant, and also of t.vo or three of the Ward
Superintendente. These removals have always
caused a feeling of regret, aa they were the means
of interrupting the friendships which resulted
from the common bond of sympathy existing be?
tween those so intimately and constantly thrown
in contact" with each other, .
Wi tu regard to the benefit which this Asso?
ciation has pro luced, we will only add, that the
strongest proof of its usefulness is the testimony
of those whom it has enabled to suppprt them?
selves, if not entirely, at least partially. Many
who have obtained work from this institution have
said, that, but for its assistance they would have
wanted bread; and the vacancies in ita offices have
always been immediately filled, without any diffi?
culty, Iront among t^oae who had previously re?
ceived ita assistance, and had Been and felt tho
benefit of its labors.
There are bout seventy persons each week who
receive employment from this Association, and
every effort has been made to distribute the work
as equally aa possible among the numerous appli?
cants j but this, as may be readily perceived, ia not
adequate to the distress prevalent throughout the
community. Hope still, however, stands forth to
encourage the belief that our use foin ss will be
increased in the future, and surely she will have
her final reward for patience and perseverance,
The numb :r of regular subscribers which at the
end of tho last quarter amounted to 605, has since
b en reduced to 490. 'Of this number, with pain?
ful interest we record that five or alz have been re?
moved by the Providence of God, while others
have found it absolutely impossible to continue
their subscriptions, although it is only the small
sum of one dollar per annum. This has been one
great cause of our difficulty. The limited number
of our subscribers, which will not even pay the
salaries of our officers, ht s left us continually de?
pendent upon the reception of donations for oar
support, and "o would therefore e mostly suggest
that those who can afford this small amount will
endeavor, through the coming year, to interest
themselves in its increase.
With the above mentioned facta, therefore, be?
fore us. we would lift our hearts in gratitude to
God, who has sustained us amid all the perplexi?
ties and difficulties of the past twelve months; and
tender our sincere thanks to those friends who
have come forward to our assistance in the hour of
our need.
We present now, for the consideration of the
members of this Association, a condensed account
of its receipts and expenditures daring the past
year,

The German mail steamship Deutohland, from

days'later than the Scotia. She landed about
eight hundred passengers.
The London Times of the 21st of May (Tuesday)
reports the race for the French Derby (Prix de
Jockey Club), at Chantilly, which took place on
Sunday, the 19th ult. By special cable telegram,
dated on the course at Chantilly, we gave a full
account of this exciting turf contest in the Herald
the same morning, so that the American people
were informed of the result through our columns
just as early as were the aristocrats and sporting
men of London.
The Paris Patrie publishes the following para?
graph, which explains in nome measure Napoleon's
idea in the pm chase of the Dunderberg. The
writer says:
We have reason to believe that Prussian agents
have been dispatched to New York with the view
of purchasing the iron-clad vessels built during
the late war in the United States, but which since
its conclusion have become in oxcess'of the wanta
of that country. Among other vessels are men?
tioned the monitor Onondaga and armored frigate
Dunderberg.
In the Paris Exhibition, on the 18th of Mav,
while Napoleon was inspecting the explosive elec?
tric machines exhibited in the Austrian depart?
ment f jr the destruction of vessels, a tremendous
explosion was heard. The sensation experienced
by the crowd was most painful; but when it was
known that the Emperor w^s quietly engaged in
conversation with the eu g ?nee -, a burst of hearty
cheering broke forth and resounded through the
gallery. The cause of the explosion was not ex?
plained.
On the 20th of May Qu en Victoria laid the foun?
dation stone of the ^all of Arts and Science at
Kensington, London. Iii" ceremony was one of
regal magnificence, and her Majesty was received
erith a genni e outburst of enthusiasm. An im?
mense crowd attended. The musical perform?
ances were as perfect as the Boyal Italian Opera
Company could make them. The Prince of Wales,
as chairman of the Committee, read an address to
the Queen. Her Majesty replied very briefly, and
was back at Windsor early in the afternoon.
In the House of Commons, on the 20th of May,
Mr. Lowe, M. P.. delivered a lengthy and very able
speech on the subject of reform and the effects of
a large extension of tie franohiae in revolution?
izing political parties in Great Britain. In the
course o?' his address he said :
The parties of the future will have no resem?
blance to the parties of the present. The parties
will not even retain their names. The highway of
American history is strewn w. tia. the skeletons of
dead parties. (Hear, hear), Federalists I It is a
matter of antiquarian research to know what a
federalist is. w here are now the whigs of whom I
heard so much when I waa in America ten years
ago ? They are os extinct aa the ichthyosaurus;
and who now knows anything of the Snow Noth?
ings and tho freehoilera ? Hi ese aro names raised
op to gratify a momentary want of the popular
mind, and when they han- served the purpose
which called tu em imo u e they ceased to be. The
names we use are not particularly applicable' to?
day; oTiginallytho \ nigs meant rogues, and tories
robbers. What is the difference between demo?
crats and republicans ? ' The fact is the words
have no spec: io meaning. A democrat is general?
ly a republican, and a repu lean very frequently a
democrat. Each has become absolutely meaning?
less aa a distinction from the other, and neither
expresses any ve ry definite idea.
- On the same day Mi'. Joint Stuart Mill moved

which, ho argued, was a logical consequence of

The London Times ot the 21st of May, details a

We take the foLiow?ur extracts from the report : I
Last evening the Ho... Neal Dow, of Maine, Uni?
ted Stales, usually called General Dow, ? since the
civil war, delivered an address in the Gu?dhalL, in
the'city ot London, the nae pf which had been
granted,'on application, by the Court of Common
Donned for the occasion, on The Legislative Pr??
vention of Intemperance, Pauperism and Crime."
Ino chair was ta?en by Mr. Alderman Hale, and
though the weather was unfavorable, there was a
very largo audience, many of' whom were women.
General Dow stood forward to speak, and waa en?
thusiastically cheered. Pr. misuig that that grand
old oivio hall had never been' so worthily occupied
than on that occ sion, he said poverty, pauperism
and crime were more extensively prevalent in Eng?
land than in any. other country, and that no Enghsn
.^t ate ?man of an v great prominence had ever at?
tempted to dealVfith them in a statesmanlike
manner. They, in America, wanted tbe English
people to put tue dquor traffic down. The subject
had never yet appeared in the Queen's speech, but
they would have it there, or they would know the
reason why.
The London Star of the 20th of May reports :
"Mr; William Lloyd Garrison, the distinguished
leader of the American antislavery party, and Mr.
George Thompson, arrived at Liverpool in the
(Juba on Saturday last. Mr. Garrison intends to
make a stay of several months in this country and
cn the continent. - On Friday, at the unanimous
request of the passengers on board the Cuba; who
included gentlemen Crom various ports of the
Southern Status, Mr. Thompson delivered an ad?
dress, which waa most enthusiastically received."
" Tho Paris Debata, after announcing the ratifica

emotion caused throughout all France by the
