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.

GOLD AND SILVER PRODUCTIONS.
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.

FRAUDS IN REGISTRATION.-The
Richmond papers complain of frauds
in registration in that city. The
Stammer says: "Wo learn that it is
Geu. 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.

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.

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

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?

was effected by the great battle.
"The battle," replied iniue host,
"turned out well for Gettysburg.

The gun-boat Palos made a third
trial trip in Boston Harbor, on

a prcssuro of thirty-two pounds of ;
steam. The vessel was fourteen j
inches deeper in the water than ou ;

The King of Prussia is having an

There is much unpleasant talk
about Qucou Victoria in England
