NEW OUI.EAXS, July 10.-The Brownsville Ranchero, of the 4th in? stant, publishes the proceedings ol the court-martial in the trial of Maxi? milian and his generals. The prison? ers were tried separately, each plea containing a denial of the jurisdiction of the court, and protesting against the refusal of the right of appeal. Maximilian was confined to his bed when the case was called-his trial being last. He was ably defended by Senor Ettlnlio. Ortega, refuting thc charges of usurper aud cruelty, said the law of the 3d of October wa? made when Maximilian was oheatec into the belief that Juarez had aban doned tho territory; and that the ar tides of that law were dictated bj the French commander-in-chief. Ht said, moreover, that the law was oui; intended os a terror, as there neve had been a petition for pardon pre pouted but it was conceded. Couuse earnestly asked tho members of tb court, in tho nnmo of civilization an< the history which will be written o the terrible deeds done this day, a the defenders of thc second indc peudeuce of Mexico, to save the gooi name of the country in the eyes o coming generations. They will fot ever applaud tho erowuiug of th greatest victories by tho greatest poi dons. Among the accusations again! Maximilian is in attempting to prc long the war by the decree of Marc 7, creating a regency, in ease of hi death in tho coming battles. Jesu Maria Yasquese, one of Maximilian counsel, dosed his argument as fo lows: "If you condemn the Arel duke to death, lam not uneasy abor a coalition in Europe, or the threa cuing attitude that the United State may assume towards the republic, hove confidence in the Liberal annie: that have routed out tho French froi the soil, but I fear the universal r< preach that will fall upon our com try, as au anathema, more than eve the sentence of death, because of tl nullity of the proceedings of th court," The court commenced nt a. m. on the 13th, and weut into si cret session on the evening of tl lith, and was dissolved at 10 o'cloc ou the same night.

It is estimated that tho total national product of bullion in the United States is now about 8100,000,000 per ! annum; $20,000,000 from pincer or gulch gold diggings, and $80,000,000 from quartz mining. Of the quartz product, .about tlnce-fourths uro front gold-bearing lodes, and one-fourth from silver mines. In the production of gold, California takes the lead, yielding about $50,000,000. En silver mining, whieh is never done by hand washing, but solely through the quar? rying and reduction of quartz, Neva? da is foremost, yielding 810,000,000 per annum. Idaho and I >regon make up the remainder of orr silver pro? duct. Virginia City, Ni vada, is built directly ou the great Comstock lodo, which, iu tho last eight years, has furnished 800,000,000 of bullion, and is said to bo one of the richest silver mines yet known in the world.

Schofield's intention to have printed lists of all who registered I prepared, which can be seen by all our citizens; and if he should be j convinced that frauds have been j committed, he will set the registra I tion aside, and order a new one to be i taken." The South and Reconstruction. Congress is disposed to make clean work of its reconstruction business. Tho bill reported by the Reconstruc? tion Committee in the House is defi? nite enough, and absolute enough, to satisfy tho most fastidious. It sim? ply makes tho military commander of ench district tho only government over its people and within its limits; and sweeps away all other authority, legislative, executive or judicial, that might stand in his way. It treats the whole Southern country as if it were in a stato of war, and'hands it over to the absolute control of mili? tary power. Wo are not disposed to object to this. We deem it wholly unconsti? tutional, but that seems to be of little consequence. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison would have opened their eyes pretty wide, if such action had been proposed in their day, or if they had been told it would become possible in anybody's day; but they j have both been dead along time, and | ave becoming more dead every year. Besides, we are passing through a revolution-one much more thorough j and complete than the one which achieved our independence of Great j i Brittan-one which is working far 1 greater changes in the nature ot our I j Government and the spirit of our in stitutious than that did-ono before j 1 which constitutional forms and. limit i at ions of power avail less than no- | ? thing ns checks and restraints on the ! i popular will. But the country stands in the pre? sence of one paramount, overwhelm? ing necessity-the necessity of n re? stored Union; aud wc shall not oppose or resist anything which pro? mises that. There is danger that if we do not get that soon, we may never get it. There is danger that our Government may become one of factions backed by force-of conflict? ing sections and States-of jarring and wrangling interests, yielding obe? dience only to arms, having no sym? pathy with each other, no common pride, no mutual love, no adequate consciousness of their common weal and common destiny. The reconstruction law promises to restore the Union, if its conditions ar<^ fulfilled. It opens a gate through j <rhich tho Southern States can come back, and again become constituents 1 of the nation. We want to see that I end accomplished, and wo welcome | any law, any authority, any state of . things which promises to bring it about. We think it far better that 1 the South should be subjected for six | months to the will of five-military commanders, each o? them absolute and supreme in his own district, than bo exposed to commotion, anarchy and military domination for ten years. Ami that seems tons thc only alternative open to them. We trust, therefore, that Congress will pass its explanatory law without ; delay. Make it so clear and explicit that even Mr. Stanbery, with his I legal microscope, eau detect no flaw in it. Whatever else it is, let it at least be definite, and. then, when the Southern States have accepted and fulfilled its conditions, keep faith with them and take them back into Congress and the Union, on an equal footing with the other States. When that is done, we shall havo a begin? ning of a restored and perfected Union- if we are ever to have it at all.-yew York limes. FIENDISH SLAUGHTER OP A WHOLE FAMILY.-Tko Newbern Republican relates the following circumstances of a cold-blooded and fiendish murder of a whole family, in Jones County, North Carolina: Intelligence reached our city, on i Saturday morning, of the murder of Mr. Richard Reeves Fescue and wife, nt their residence on Island Creek, in Jones County. It appears that on Friday, three colored men cann; Oil the premises and demanded money of the ladies in the house, which was occupied nt the time by Mr. Foscuc and wife, their two daughters and two grand-children, j Failing to get money from tho ladies, j they took Miss Fosouc, Mrs. Owen Witty and tho two children to the smoke-house, and there shot them. ? Mrs. Gwen Witty. Mr. Foscuo's ; daughter, and nu infant child of Mrs. j Witty's, were killed instantly, while Miss Foscuc veas slightly wounded ! and left by the murderers, they cvi i doutly thinking her dead. Miss Foscuo will no doubt recover from hes injuries. A grand-child o? Mr. Foscuo's, the child of Mr. Martin Brock, was shot while in Miss Foscuo's inns, and died a few hours afterwards from tho injury. After murdering the ladies, it booms the murderers tied Mr. Fos? cuc to n post near his smoke-house, where they stripped him of clothing, cruelly and horribly beat him, and finally killed him by striking him on the head with n maul. The wretches then proceeded to the house and eom plotcd their horrid work by murder? ing Mrs. Foscue. They then ran? sacked tho house, where they obtained a small amount of money, after which they left. As soon ns the murderers were gone. Miss Brock, with difficulty, got out of the smoke-house, and tak? ing tho Brock child with her, made her way to a neighbor's house. Tho military authorities are in search of the fioudish murderers. Jnck Banister, praising tho hospi? tality of the Irish, after his return from one of his trips to tho sister kingdom, was asked if he had been in Cork. "No," replied the wit; "but I saw a great many drawings of it LET THEM COME.-We learn from tbo SoiUhicest that application has been made to the Christianburg < branch of the Piedmont Land Agenoy . for sixty farms for immigrants from t Pennsylvania and New York. This 1 is encouraging news to the people 1 of that region. Why is it that the ( emigrants all go to the Valley? Be? cause they will not there find so , many uegroes. Tho negroes seem ] destined to the evil genius of Eastern , Virginia. They prevent immigra- j tion to this region, keep down tho j price of lands, keep tho whites all the < while in hot water, and threaten to ruin the State at the polls. [Richmond Dispatch. SUMNER SKURBFD AGAIN.-In tho United States Senate, on Friday Inst, ! between Senator Sumner, who de? sired to have a full margin for a hill providing universal suffrage ia all tho States, and for various other things, ] and Senator Anthony, who had brought in a resolution limiting the business of this session to recon- i struct ion, there was a lengthy and animated discussion, ending in the ! adoption of Mr. Anthony's resolution j -yeas 23, nays 9. This is, we guess, i a pretty fair indication of Sumner's 1 ( strength iii tho Senate, with his extra and ultra radical schemes. [A'eic l or* Herald. IMPEACHMENT.-It is understood 1 to-day that those members of Con? gress who advocate the impeachment of President Johnson have informally agreed not to press its consideration at the present session, but to en? deavor to have Congress convened on the third Wednesday in October next, for the express purpose of taking it np at that time. In the meantime, tiie members and thc country will have before them the different reports of the Judiciary Committee, with voluminous evi? dence, on which to base a judgment. [Washington Star, Oth, A correspondent of the Lavaca Commercial writes that Judge I. A. Paschal (plain) and Judge McKay (colored) delivered some memorable specimens of oratory to the negroes at Seguin recently. Paschal informed his audience that all the negroes in Prussia vote and hold olfiee. and that one-third ol' the crowned heads had succumbed to a republican form of government last year. The old co? lored man who asked us recently if Queen Victoria were not a black woman, saying bc "had heard so," must have been one of P.ischal's auditors or private pupils. Wheu a child is born nt sea it is customary tu request the skipper of I the craft to stand god-father. In some cases, the young salt is hap- i tized with thc name of the vessel. A coteniporary gives a very* interest? ing account of the sudden appearance of an additional passenger in a city car the tither day. As the "little stranger" happens to be a boy, the "Blarsted Britisher" thinks Oscar, or as he pronounces it "Hosscar," would he a very appropriate Christian name. GETTYSBURG.-A correspondent of the New York 1'ribune, nt Gettys? burg, asked the hotel-keeper how he was effected by the great battle. "The battle," replied iniue host, "turned out well for Gettysburg. Hack druin' and hotel keepin' are a bit more eneouragin'. It was dif? ficult to see what Providence set us atween two fires for, but on lookin' into our cash accounts we understand it all." The gun-boat Palos made a third trial trip in Boston Harbor, on Wednesday, using petroleum for fuel. The trial was even moro satis- j factory than the previous experi- | mcnts. The rate of twelve knots j was made against wind and tide, with a prcssuro of thirty-two pounds of ; steam. The vessel was fourteen j inches deeper in the water than ou ; the previous trials, and was in bad trim. The King of Prussia is having an J iron-clad built in England, which is I expected to be the finest alloat. She ! is to be 365 feet in length, with a ! width of 60 feet, and will measure about 6,000 tons. Slip will bo cased in iron eight inches thick; will have two iron turrets, each to carry two heavy guns, and will mount twenty guns on dec!;, ot' thc heaviest calibre, protected by shields. There is much unpleasant talk about Qucou Victoria in England just now. lt is said, for instance, ! that she drinks too much wine, that her temper is violent, and that she is so parsimonious as to limit the sup? ply of bread and butter to tho ser? vants. Some enterprising ladies in Phila? delphia are trying to establish a daily newspaper, to be published and cir? culated especially among their ?ex. The editorial duties are to bo per? formed by six or seven ladies, who shall each have a special department. Sarah M. Sterling, tho American giantess, was married in San Fran? cisco to Thos. Flintoff, a youth of San Bafol. Sho is soveu feet high, and ho is four feet elovon inches. Ten years ago, thc. number of work? ing horses in Now York city amount? ed to 8omo 51,000; fivo years ago, it had increase 1 to 70,000, and is now estimated at 110.000. Father Cleveland, of Boston, is ninety-six, and hard at work. He says his hope is to bo a missionary at 100. At Indianola, according to tbe Times, a gardener recently struck with his hoo a metallic substance, which proved to be gold to tho wnount of $17,000, supposed to have been melted in some forgotten tiro nrhieh destroyed a building situated an the spot. In New Eugland, an enterprising sitizen has invented and patented a knitting machine, said to be the most perfect yot brought before the pub? lic. It will knit fifty pairs of stock? ings' in a day, and is so simple that a 'mild can work it. A youug mau tried to drown him? self in Philadelphia because he could not afford to get married. Several have recently shot themselves be? cause they had gaiuod that great blessing. Jamaica papers are compelled by law to publish tho residences of the proprietors, for the convenience of the sherill'. New York youug ladies wash in champagne to improve their com? plexion.
