Tho correspondence of the New York
Tienes, of Monday, writes:
Mr. Romero has received, .to-day, de?
spatches from Yera Cruz, with dates of
. the 12th instant, containing^he following
information:
The French were fortifying the city of
Vera Cruz on the laud side approaches, as
the Mexican soldiers came so near that tho
v citv is thought to be in danger of capture.
The steamer Panama, from St. Nazairre,
reached Yera on the 10th. She took on
board 130 French soldiers for Mexico. The
news from the interior is most gloomy for
Maximilian aud the French. Their former
partisans are deserting them by the hun?
dreds.
Mr. Romero also received official de?
spatches from Chihuahua up to the 27th
ult. President Juarez, his Cabinet and
Government were making preparations to
remove to Monterey to establish there the
National Government. The city of Duran?
go had been abandoned by the main French
force there. Only 500 men remained. Pre?
sident Juarez had sent out an expedition
against Durango, and expected soon to be
in possession of the city.
. The report of Gen. Sheridan's military
commission on the New Orleans riots, ac?
companied by tho testimony, bas reached
the President's table. The report itself
covers nearly seventy-five pages of fools?
cap, and the testimony is very voluminous.
The pressure of ,bnsiuess upon tho Presi?
dent is so great, that its examination is
likely to be deferred some days.
Foreign Items.
The Due de Persigny delivered a very re?
markable speech on tbe subject of Napo?
leon's mission, and thc ircvelopment of
"practical liberty" in France. The empire,
he said, inaugurates the "reign of a mighty
democracy," promises the accomplishment
of "the noble words of Saint Helena," and
tho Emperor, as "king of thu people,"
must go "onward to assure with his sworil
the peace of the world, till the nationalities
knit more closely the ties of European
brotherhood. '
The King of Prussia pronounced thc ex?
tinction of the Guelph dynasty in Hanover,
after a rule of a "thousand years," in a
speech delivered to a deputation from that
country. His- Majesty was firm, decided
aud feeling in his words, and very states?
manlike in hie expression.
The speeches delivered by MM. Waldeck
and Gueist, in the Prussian Legislature,
against the money demand of the crown
and executive indemnity bill, with the reply
of Count Bismark, show that tho policy of
the Prernier is not by any means univer?
sally approved of, either at homo or in
the neghboring countries.
Tho people and Cabinet of Italy are rep
^resentod as becoming more and more "in?
dignant" with Franco, on account of Napo?
leon's treatment of the Roman and
Venetian questions. There is a decided
leaning in Florence towards a more inti?
m?t?; and lasting alliance with Prussia, as
tho head of reconstructed Germany.
A correspondent in Dublin, writing on
tho 4th of September, furnishes a very in?
teresting statement of tho present condi?
tion of Ireland, political and social, reveal
1 ing many of too causes windi aro now
exciting her population to the attempt to
form a republican government through
the Fenians or any other available agen?
cies.
A Calcutta letter, of July 31, contains a
heart-rending account ot tho ravages pro?
duced in the country lying South-west from
.t hat city, by the famine prevailing in India.
Groups of starved people were found dying
by the roadside at many points, and it was
estimated that 1,200 persons perished daily

Ralasorc, Cattack and Midnaporo.
The health of tho Emperor of the French
ia reported much improved.
Kurt Jiff Talle with Dlr. Davin.
From a continuation of the Kev? J. D.
[edy's interview with Mr. Davis, we make
ho following interesting extracts:
To a suggestion, that perhaps the ill will
nauifested towards him by some public
non, might be caused by an unforgiving
pint on tfieir part, in view of some offence
liven by him-"That is quito probable- I
lave often been too angry, though general
v thoughtful and cautious-even tender to
lie failings of others-yet when they
?rossed my path in the shape of pretence,
alsohood, craft or cant, then these faults
iroused bitter anger for the moment
loiuetimes utter alienation. This was all
vrong. Oh, how public life blunts our
>erceptions to thc higher delicacies-ten
lerness, forbearance-putting the best
roust met ion on things, words and persons
?hey aro capable of. I have erred iu this
particular, but I often bad great provoca
ion. Never, however, have I uttered an
ingry, under-valueing or denunciatory
sentiment without believing that I had
;ood cause for so doing, and, in most
:ases, my country has already, or will bere?
ifter, find that l\vas right. 1 now feel and
acknowledge that I was sometimes wrong
?s to the ton? or coloring of a phrase while
nnder the excitement of debate, as for in?
stance: When Mr. Johnson, after the
Mexican war, made some remarks deroga?
tory of the West Point officers, I thought
it strange that any man of sense should
think that tho training of officers for duty,
by a thorough military education, would
rather disqualify them for that duty, or,
what was the samo thins, that untrained
officers did better than the West Pointers.
In the course of reply, I made use of this
remark: 'Who would select a tailor to shoe
a horse, or a blacksmith to make a coat.'
This gavo personal offence to Mr. Johnson,
who regarded it as a sheer personality.
Nothing in the world was further from my
thoughts."
To the query, whether ho had anything
to complain of in his present treatment,
ho replied that be bad not. The present
commandant of the fort was a scjdier and
a gentleman, who, while diligent and faith?
ful in thc discharge of his duty to bis Go?
vernment, was also forbearing and consi?
derate as to all tho niinuti.T of his prison
life, and allowed him all the indulgence he
required, which was simply not to be in?
sulted in the intolerable ways and man?
ners he had been by the creature who used
every means to* torment him before the
arrival of Gen. burton. One of tis told
him that all tho officers of rank in the (dd
army, with whom he had in any way come,
in contact, had expressed the opinion that
ho ought to have been released a year ago;
that some of them thought that he, us
Commander-in-Chief of the Confederacy,
was virtually included in the parole of these
armies on their surrender, and ought to
have been admitted to parole at once, but
for the malicious assassination charge,
which no one that knew him believed. Slr.
Davis said, "That gratifies me very much.
I was brought into frequent contact, both
in the Mexican war and as Secretary of
War under President Pierce, with many
officers, and did then, and do now, enter?
tain a high souse of the chivalric honor of
maby ol' them. Tin: Government may
have been deceived hythe testimony which
has since turned out to be sheer perjury,
tending to implicate me in the assassina?
tion or President Lincoln, or it may have
been subject to one of those manias, which
occasionally, like plagues, seize Govern?
ments and communities; or, what is most
likely, a few unprincipled men, seeing an
opportunity, in the excited condition of tho
nation, for obtaining wealth and position,
through the instrumentality of villains,
suborned tor the purpose, really did im?
pose upon the Government, and led them
to believe for ? moment, in the whirl of
excitement, the statements put forth in the
proclamation for my capture. Dut, gen?
tlemen, my heart is a stranger to that
plot. These hands are unstained by inno?
cent blood. No unrighteous gold has ever,
during the Confederacy, adhered to these
palms." He uttered the last sentence in a
j most solemn manner, holding up his
bands and raising his face to Heaven, and
[with such a holy, child-like simplicity,
that it is impossible for any words, how?
ever weird, to convey a half idea not an
adequate one- of that touching scene.
DH. RANDOLPH.-One of the prominent
1 radical tourists ist* certain dusky "Doctor"
Randolph, "of New Orleans." There has
been considerable doubt whether this dingy
"Doctor" was a Doctor of Laws or of Di?
vinity. He turns out t>> bc, like the late
"Doctor" Dostie, a tonsorial doctor. Mon?
day night, the radicals of Oneida made
great preparations to receive the Hamilton
troupe, but. instead of the whole delega?
tion, only "Dr. Randolph, of New Orleans,'"
appeared. A local report of the reception
says:
As soon as the dusky form of the Doctor
was seen, he was at. once recognized as an
old resident of Oneida. The Doctor's face
lit np with a broad grin of recognition, as
his eyes fastened on the "striped emblem"
(barber's pole) of his old profession and
the honest countenance of his former part?
ner (Mr. Highgate) in tho tonsorial pro?
fession, at Oneida, several years ago. Tho
gun ceased its loud roaring: tho crowd lur?
gan to grow- smaller, enthusiasm to sim?
mer, and, in a few minutes, the usual quiet
of that beautiful village again took the
place of excitement, while the crowd had
dispersed in disappointment and disgust.
M. T. D. Highgate, the colored barber of
Oneida, says that "the doctor has im?
proved considerably since they dissolved
copartnership, and does some credit to the
colored population"-he thinks he is look?
ing for a larger boiel than the one they
used to keep their change Hi; he thinks ho
would like to go into business with him
again, were it not he is afraid that lu>
(Highgate) might not get his share, if the
doctor should resume any of his old tricks.
Tho Richmond Dispatch records the fol?
lowing sad incident of the effects of the
cholera:
On yesterday, tho funeral of Mrs. Jo?
sephine Power and her daughter, Miss Ro?
salie Power, who died, on Wednosdav, from
cholera, took place from the Cathedral.
There were four deaths in this one house?
hold, on Wednesday, from this dreadful
disease, and one on Saturday last. On
Wednesday, two mothers and two daugh?
ters-Mrs. P..wer and her daughter, and a
servant woman and lier's -breathed their
last within twelve hours of each other.
What an awful visitation! A Inr^e number
of friends attended the funeral, yesterday,
and sud, indeed, was it, to follow, in tin
same train, tho remains of a motlier and
daughter, both called away so suddenly.

Kn-il. Douglas- Kelnles Iiis ?-".\j><
rlciu-i- ut Philntlel|>lii:t.
Iii Rochester, on Thursday eveuing. Vt:-.
Frederick Douglass spoke at the I nion
League, and gave an account of his \i.-ii
to Philadelphia. Wo quote:
"On my way to Philadelphia, 1 met tin
Indiana and Louisiana delegations. 1 was
in the forward car, next to the engine a
precedence which is usually accorded t-.
negroes, so that in case of accidents we
should have thc first chance. The delega?
tion COOM to mo and said they hail a wry
grave subject to discuss. They entreated
me not to go to Philadelphia. The coun?
try was agitated with important questions.
The issue was between Congress and thc
President. If I went tn Philadelphia, tho
Indiana delegation feared that their Con?
gressmen would be defeated; and it' Con?
gress were defeated, Johnson would be in
the ascendancy, and that meant Memphis,
New Orleans, and the continued persecu?
tion of Union men throughout the South.
1 told, them I might as well put a pistol to
my head and blow my brains om as to back
out now. Had I been left to choose, 1
should not have come here at such a time;
but I had been appointed by the Republi?
cans of Rochester, and there was now no
means of escaping the odium of having a
negro delegate in the Convention, ll' 1 re?
fused to come, or was kept out, the matter
would be made worse instead of better.
"On reaching Philadelphia, I heard a
rumor that some of the Northern loyal
Governors were regretting exceedingly
that Rochester had sent an ugly child a
black delegate tu the Convention. They
'hoped Douglas would have the good
sense'-that was thc way they put .t 'not
to attempt to take a scat in tho gathering,
or join the procession. Indeed, I did not
know exactly how I should gc t in. I had
not seen our other delegate, and it would
scarcely have been seemly for me to walk
alone. But a kind Providence tossed the
yoting, brave, eloquent Theodore Tilton i:i
my way, and that man of bram- and el . -
quenco and genius, like hhs master, was
not ashamed to call a black man brother.
Ho took nie by tho arm, and wc marched in
tho grand procession together. Arrived at
tho Convention, tho first man I met was
General Carl Schurz, and the second was
General Butler. They both took mo cor?
dially by tho hand, and-then- is a great
deal of flunkoyism in most of us-alter
that, everybody recognized nie. thc
difficulty was over at once."
