SEES pata orwaenieereerreee Fate oF Maxturian.—Poor Maxitnilian is gone and the kings and prin-: ces. of Europe mourn over his death.— The fiat of justice demanded that royal blood’ should be shed by democratic hands and that decree has been executed. The world expresses much horror that this life has been taken, but we are inclined to the opinion that much of the feeling grows out of the fact that * Maximilian was of a royal house and not any beliefthat he was unjustly punished. The crowned monarchs of Europe, who believe in the “divine right of kings,” are of course horrified that the deeds. of one of. the line should be punished, but we are confident that no one who believes in the divine right of the people can question the justice of this execution. Let us suppose that a foreign prince should land with an army upon the shores of the United States; that he should march upon Washington and seize our capital; that he should then issue.a decree declaring himself Emperor and denounc" ing all who oppose his authority as traitors worthy of death. Now suppose the people should resist and that their best officers, taken prisoners in war, should be shot down in accordance with the decree of the foreign usurper. All ‘would unite in pronouncing such a man & murderer worthy of death, and if taken, in accordance with the law of tations and that of self preservation he would be executed. This is exactly what Maximilian did in Mexico. He invaded the country without a shadow of right; levied forced loans; pro¢laimed himself Emperor, and murdered in cold blood the Liberal generals taken prisoners by him. For these crimes his life has been taken and the justness of the punishment cannot be questioned. Had he been'some ambitious American, in whose veins no royal blood flowed, he would have been denounced as a fillibuster and the world would have pronounced him worthy of death. Why _ should a man whose only claims are that he was born of a family which poor dupes .call royal, be entitled to immunity from punishment on that account? .The ragged robes of royalty should not be allowed to shield the life of the “usurper and murderer. Maxiimilian wis more worthy of death than the ignorant robber who takes the life of the.victim forhisgold. Asa question of policy it may have been best that the life of the usurper should be spared, but this we doubt.— -His fate will bean example to ambicome. The monarchs of Europe have publics with jealous eye, and the wealth of these countries have excited their avarice. No sooner was the United States-involved in civil war than the effort to establish a monarchy in Mexico was made. long remain a warning against all future attempts. Besides,, the Mexican patriots whose brothers and fellows fell by his hand,have the satisfaction of knowing that their deaths are avenged. . Maximilian still cldimed to be the rightful monarch of Mexico,and though driven from his throne by force, the Liberals had no assurance that his friends would not again bring trouble upon the country. Many unworthy Mexicans had united with him who had {nothing to liope for from the Liberals, and they would eagerly have embraced ) another opportunity to make. trouble. While we may question the policy of his execution, we do not think any American will-deny the justness of it. Nor on 1T.—Speaking of the Convention movement to reorganize the Union ticket, the Stars and Stripes says of Placer county: “Not one member. of our present, or of any former Central Committee of the Union or Republican parties ; not one candidate on the Union county ticket, nor a single recognized leader or influential member of the Union party of Placer county, either favors or countenances the insane and semi-copperhead movement.” That paper says further: “The Union press of Nevada county, including the Transcript, Gazette and Meadow Lake Sun, have given unequivocal expression to their opposition, while the leading Union men of that county, Mr. Sargent, David Belden, E. W. Roberts, Judges McFarland and Niles, and others of like standing and influence, discountenance the disorganizing movement and urge undivided support of the ticket as it is is now constituted.” You can bet your life on that proposition, and if any Nevada county man should go into the Sacramento Convention, he will go without a constituency to represent, unless it be copperhead. Even the Union men of Nevada county who dislike some of the nominations for State offices, believe ‘the proposed movement to be ill-timed and ill-tempered, and will not be drawn inté any opposition movement. ne ee TURNED uP Misstnc.—Edward Sherlock, who was stabbed by Anna Bowen, ’ was arrested in bed on two warrants from Justice Byrne’s Court, says the National, one on a charge of assault and battery and the other of malicious mischief. He offered to giye bail for able to get out of bed and move around, Bail was readily obtained and the bonds teady, except the signing, when officer Allison went to find the accused, and found him not. The wounded man had disappeared. “He was vanished, lost and gone.” He may have felt warranted in leaving, after he saw Judge Byrne’s missives demanding the pleasure of his company at his éarliest convenience. Conjecture is afoot to guess where he went, and whether he was spirited away or locomoted at his own option. THE Bee pitched into the State Central Committee for not adopting a stringent test at the primaries, and now it gives the San Francisco Convention fits for making a strict test. Somebody hurt the Bee at the State Convention, and it is buzzing and attempting to sting in every direction. Ar the Paris Exposition there is a French Hatters’ department, where they make a hat out of “whole cloth” in ten minutes. George Smith, of Red Mountain, says that there used to be a saloon in his precinct where a brick could be manufactured and put into a hat in ten seconds and two motions, So says the Gold Hill News, _ BriegHaM YounG gave a ball on the Fourth, to which invitations were extended ‘‘irrespective of party, ‘politics, creed or condition.” Tue San Jose Patriot denies the statement of the Mercury that Charles Maclay, an old Republican, has joined A long looked toward the American re.
