WEDNESDAY, NOV'R 22, 1865.
Tue Mexican Rervsiic.—Among other baseless charges made by an unscrupuious opposition’against the Administration
was one that President Johnson proposed
to recognize the government of Maximilian
in Mexico, and that France had received ssurances of the fact. The recent speech of
Senator Seward, takes very strong ground
in favor of the Monroe doctrine, and the
President hes appointed General Logan as
Minister, not to the Court of the usurper,
but to the Republic of Mexico, thus indicating unmistakably the policy of tho nation
in regard to Mexico. Maximilian, & appears, could not understand the refusal of:
the United States to receive his agents, nor
could he comprehend the unfriendly feeling
towards him, by the occasional outbursts of
popular indignation at his invasion of a sister Republic, but the appointment of General Logan at this time will no doubt awaken his “Majesty” to a sense of his danger.
The principle at the foundation of the
nation’s policy toward Mexico is so firmly
established, and so universally accepted by
the people of every party; that should it be‘come negbisary to enforce it at the point of
the hayghet, the war would be more popular than Wily ever waged. -It is true, notwithstanding the tenacity with which we
adhere tothe Monroe doctrine, it would be
our duty to abandon it in the case of Mexico, should the peuple of that country choose
to “havea king ruleover them;’’ but when
an attempt is made to force a ruler upon an
unwilling people and to establish his throne
upon this contiuent by force, it is not only
the right, but the sacred duty of the nation
to interfere.
The recent appointment of Gen. Logan
may, and likely will, bring the Mexican
question to an early issue, and the concentration of troops west of the Mississippi,
» together with the fact that the military and
naval strength on ‘this cvast are beitig augmented, shows that the Government will be
fully prepared for any emergency. Wo do}
not believe that any war will result out of
the question. The Mexican question is
very unpopular in France, and notwithetand
ing the power of the Emperor, he wouid
never dare to undertake such a war in the
face of such an opposition. His little Mexican experiment has already cost him much
more than he expected, and he will not be
likely to undertake a war which must inevitably end in his defeut.” The Paris journals
have already stated that the French army
will be withdrawn from Mexico by August
next. If such is the case, the French Emperor would probably change his plan and
withdraw earlier if the United Stutes should
ask it. That the Administration is determined to protect. Mexico against the designs of Maximilian, there can be no doubt,
even should that policy lead to something
more than hard words. The nafjon is already committed to the enforcement of the
Monree dectrine, and there can be no aban<
donment of the position. Steps aretaken
in the right direction, and-Maximilian, nu
doubt, understands by this time that while
to.leave isdisgrace, to stay is death, and he
will not be likely: to choose the latter.
Coprer SMELTING.—Mr. Walker, an
~ experienced miner and smelter, says the
Call, has been making experiments in copper smelting with a furnace he has lately
constructed. He erected a furnace ut OukYand Point, and on Wednesday made his
first experiment, which was highly success.
‘ful. The ore used was of a pour quality,
and especially of a poor quality for smeltung,
yet his first experiment succeeded in extracting from the ore within two per cent.
of all the copper it-contained as shown by
faeeay, and. tutved .out regulus, ready tor
shipment. Mr, Walker’s furnaces have the
merit of cheapness, le being able to erect
them for $150 each, of a capacity to awelt
two and a half tone of ore daily. Where
fuel is ensily attainable, the cost of smelting
will be comparitively trifling.. There appears to be go doubt that Mr. Walker hus
obtained that which-ie the great want of
‘copper miners, Viz: a cheap and éimple
method of reducing the ore to regulus v

Tue Literary CLuB.—In spite of rain,
quite a number of persons attended the
meeting of the Literary Club at the Baptist
Church on Monday night. On next Monday evening the policy of selling or taxing
the mineral lands will be discussed.
LIVELY.—Notwithstanding the storm, quite
a nuinber of attorneys, jurors and witnesses
from various parts ofthe county have been
in town since: Monday, attending court.—
These, with the large number who have
been here for the purpose oi paying taxes
have made the city appear quite Jively. for
winter.
“A BusTer.”’—The Grass Valley Union
announces the birth of a young Fenian,
weighing seventeen pounds and several
ounces. What a whopper—not the story,
the baby. *
THe Rain.—From Saturday, up to 9
o'clock yesterday morning, 2.94 inches of
rain fell. This makes a total of 12.13 inches since the commencement of the present
season.
FaRMING.—The farmers in the foot-hills
have now more rain than they want. Early
in the season all the land which could be
gotten into conditien, was seeded, and the
grain is now up, and growing nicely, but
the-greater part of the soil is so hard that
it cannot be ploughed until after the early
rains. Since’ the storm has set in it has
rained so steadily, that no opportunity was
afforded for seeding this soil, and now the
ground isto wet too plough. A few weeks of
sunshine would give the ranchmen a chance
te got in their grain, and with such weather,
the coming year will witness the largest
harvest the State has ever known. ‘
EMIGKATION TU ‘TENNESSEE.—A Nashvill letter says: “There is a considerable
tide of emigration already setting iv to this
State. So far, itis composed principally of
business and professional men, whe are lucating in the cities and towns of the State.
Emigration to Nashville has pretty well
reached its limit, until eur accomodations
in.the way of houses are increased. Hundreds of applicants during the last month
huve been unable to obtain any sort of
shelter, and comequently have been compelled to seek a locatiou elsewhere. In consequence of the great demand for houses in
the city, rents have reached a tabuluus figure, and continue to advance, We gladly
recvive any addition to’ dur population, by
these who will become worthy members of
the comunity, whatever their business or
profession, bat what we tost need is an influx of agriculturists and mechanics, who
will go inte the country and country towns
und-devolop the immense resources of the
. country, For such men the inducements
which are now offered in many portions of
the State are seldom surpaseed ”
SToRM aT tue Bay,—A terrific gale prevailed at San Francivce yesterday. Sume
damage was done to vessels in the harbor,
and in the city a house was blown down,
‘burying a Mrs, Dickey and two children,
who, however, were taken out uninjured.
