WINNSBORO. Tuesdaly Morning, Jannury 30, 18O. New Advertisueiuls. Attention is called to tile advet tise nienti of Fish& and Lowrance, Coliui' bia. Also to Card of Hay and' Cotton Press Company. We have * received a new and large supply of paper suitable to job printing of all descriptions. Exlthiiiu ' We are reqnes.Led to state -that the exhibition .to which wie altided in onr last will be deferred till Thursday niight. We are also informed t hat. seats will be appropriated for snel of ouir, colore'd populationi as -liay feel inclined t' at tend. Mexico. The plot th-ickens upoini this stag of a most interesting political drana. Tlm French Governmnent throngh cleir ac. credited ambassador invite our recogni lion of the Imiperild fxoxer nmin't in Mexico. To this ,Sewarl roliles by stating the antagonis:n of tle whole monarchical estabhlishment with the theoretical principles of Lthis Goveriiiiit. and the traditional policy of On peonle and in turn, insists upon the withdlraw al in a reasonable imnue of t i lirencli garrison as an et (of .istice to this. Gov. ernment and a gtarantee of the aiica cable and friendly. di'pi.tition of the French adininistration. Tis tle litter explicitly declines to do exeIt n1p nt the condition of. the aekn ied om of Maxitninlian. The c-orrespond1ene1 .o-.-es witi ai full r1,sertid of the claims of thi G.erone in -'e prein ises. All this isdonveyedl in langange as clear and uinequiivocal as lie, can. tiols and si nmitilatti IphasvoloV itn which snch ecrre-pontc-i S re ntszn:d1.1y condlielel, wonilI iit. IH it is lit .1ll the artifice awl bravado of dipn:t., we may expect under th prodigions en pulse of polit ical sentituen, chlil y at It it North,stome lipactical action by omr Gov. ernment looking to what ihe ynnk'.snro' so id of speakiing of as the . "Oeforce . nlit of ianifest destijiv." Meanwhile nev complications have arisen front the reckless anl irrisponsible action ofan organiization of Amuericans who invaded the Mexican soil, captured .a Mexican town with one hundr-d anil seventy-five Imperialists and shed the blood' of an imperial soldier. This is an overt act of hostility, hut, 11 unapproved by this Governmneht, how - will it proceed to make thle. amnepde ho to a governiment which existence in its eyet ? O ww i -the lat.ter atten)pt -to ob~ reparation, without' . athtor izea tternmediarv ? TIhe w hole subject is comiplicatedi and 'anomalous, butt w e belie've events are hastening to an inevi table conclusion, and that is, in some way or qther the expunlsion of Maxi. mliian. Nx0oo TES-rtuoN.-Theo Memphis Avalgnche, of' which one E.-A. Pollard, ,the historian, is one of the editors, has tihe following jn' favor of'. allowing ne grYoAs to testify: oearo rejoiced. to see the prejndices against n'egro testinifoniy fast g~ivintg ayay to a more ordightened piibbi opim ion'. The more fact of permitting ne groes to testifv in court dloes not elevate his social condition to an egnamlity' with the white man, as maniy s'eem to suippose. I4t is simply an alt of justice to the ne gro, who is not respopsible for the una fortuinate term inationi of the wvar. Du-i ring tho terrible struggle throngh wvhich we have passed,. the negro was an arm of streth to the cause which has been lost. His kindness to the absent sol dior's family, has received the highest commendation, and to partrnit him to testify in court is a just recomnpense for his Rditity. The inisano fanaticism of the North has plunged the negro inlto the deegest distress. "It has taken from him his .comforta ble home, wijero ho was surronnded *,with all the comforts of life, anid made him a vagrant. upon society. Most of thmare living in waut..
