Bread Daily Branscipt . 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 The Paris journals have already stated that the French army will be withdrawn from Mexico by August next.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 vich quality. » Bi THE race at Bay View Park, on Satu last, between Pilot, Peggy, Ringgold ‘and’ Pete, mile. heats, best three in five, was won by Pilot. \ teen summers,” or som’ers about that, cured a gentleman of a strange hallucination.

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.
