Oar failure to publish an enlarged paper this week is not owing to any neglect on our part. The type is set, forma arranged, and new press up and in working order. We sent for our paprr over three week* ago, but it has not yet ar- rived. W« hare written, telegraphed to the different station*, and done everything in our pow«r to bring it around, but without success. That is what is the matter. Under these un- fortunate circumstances we can publish only a half sheet of our small size. This waiting for freight by the trains when one is in a hurry, is rather tedious business t What a pity we have no good stage line through to New Hamp- shire ! Never mind—we will have a West Side Rail Road one of these days! We are bound to come out all right next week. The Newt. —Henry Ward Beecher asks for an assistant, not to preach, but to attend to pastorial work. The request is a very reasonable one. —The Governor of Georgia has vetoed the bill making valid all contracts betwci thing less than our full rights will be a disre- gard of our just rights, of due respect for our feelings. It' the powers that be do so, it will be used as a license, as it were, or an apology 'for any community, or for individuals, thus disposed, to outrage our rights and feelings.— It has been shown in the present war that the Government may justly reach the strong arm into the States and demand from them, those who owe allegiance, their assistance and sup- port. May it not reach out a like arm to se- cure and protect its subject upon whom it has a claim P The President replied in a lengthy speech. He did not disguise his opinion that the at- tempt to precipitate measures for extending suffrage to the blacks, was likely to be fraught with much evil. He declares himself a friend of the negro—an early supporter of the policy of emancipation—and also a supporter of what- ever is likely to increase the happiness of the race. But regarding the case from this stand point, immediate enfranchisement seems to him inexpedient and unprofitable; because difficul- ties must follow from forcing the principle up on the people, *'either of the District of Co- lumbia or of a State, in opposition to the ex- pressed will of a majority.\ He remarks : The abolition of slavery has come as an in cident to the suppression of the great rebellion, and as an incident we should give to it proper direction. The colored man went into this re- bellion a slave; by the operation of the rebel- lion he came out a freedman, equal to a freed- mau in other portions of the country. There is a great deal done for him on this point,— The non-slaveholder who was forced into tills rebellion, and was as honest as those who lived beyond the limits of the State, was car- ried into it, and his property, and in a number of instances, the lives of such, were sacrificed, and he who has survived has come out of it with nothing gained, but a great deal lost.— Now, upon a principle of justice, should they be placed in a condition different from what they were before? On the one hand, one has gained a great deal; on the other hand one has lost a great deal, and in a political point of view scarcely stands where they did before.— Now, we are talking about where we are to begin. We have got at the hate that existed between the two races. The query comes up, whether those two races, situated as they were iWimitht ti without time for and the freed men; and the Senate lttft pewed —.From the despatches of our Conaul at Liverpool, dated Jan. 20th, 1866, we learn that the cattle scourge is rntber on the increase than otherwise. He says that during the week previous to date, 9,248 cases were reported to the authorities. Thus far, upwards of 70,000 cattle have either died of the plague or been killed after taking it. The High Sheriff of Cheshire vaccinated ten cattle and exposed them to the plague. Thus far they have not taken i t —Another Company of Northern men who went South with the view of Investing their money and establishing homes, have returned, satisfied that the lives and property of loyal men are not safe under the governments now established there. One of their number who ptftehased a plsce wltfcin eighty miles of Vicks- burgu, was notified by a mob to leave within •dyerdays. Ho at once set his freeduiento work building a small forl, on which ho ruined the American flag. He then armed Us frccdmen Ad notified the mob that he was ready to leave if they were ready to force him away. The mob had not disturbed him at last accounts. »—Secretary Seward, on his recent tour U Havana, paid a visit to the President of llayti AJ well as to that of St. Domingo. He was met at the wharf by the Ilayticn Secretary oi Foreign Relations and the Ilayllen Charge ai Washington, and subsequently had u most cordial and friendly interview with Prcsiden Geffrard. Mr. Seward on several occasion** expressed his satisfaction at having uecn mi h««rd tho President. When ho reached tin deck of his ship, the Ilayticn stoamer Galatea gave him a ealutc of 17 guns. —The House Committee of Ways and Meam and the Canadian envoys have failed to agrci on the terms of a new Reciprocity Treaty; an< there to now a prospect that the present Treaty which expires on the 17th of next month, wil have no immediate successor. ew of the Prei i \ Colore d Men . representative i country now in f tho color- ed people tervlew with the delegation was as M New York: George T.

Douglass, Downing, and the other icmbcrs of the colored delegation publish a eply to lite address. It is a manly and forcible protest against views nnd opinions which they ustly describe as prejudicial to the interesls of their race. They admit that a hostility exists jetwuen the raccB of the South, and that it is •eciprocal, but they point out thnt it had its >rigin in the relations of Slavery, and that, vilh the disappearance of Slavery, tho hostility night to disappear—certainly ought not to be 'herlshed. They call tho attention of the ^resident to the fact that ho proposes to leave lie one race defenseless by denying it the bal it, while he would clothe its enemy in the tmoply of political power. They remind him lat peace is not to come from tin; degrada- tion and inequality of one race, but by equality between tho two And they resent with prop- er indignation the suggestion that the two races annot exist together in freedom ott this con- inent, but must be separated by colonization. The Albany Journal very pertinently remarks hat, \Mr. Douglas asked the President to en- i>rse w.th reference to the States, what no one He lands of Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Florida shall be disposed of ac- cording to the Homestead law of 1802, except that the entry shall be for 80 acres instead of l<!0. The sale or lease of these lands is pro- hibited, and there is to be no discrimination in the settlement of them on account of race - color. FftfliCE AND ffiEXICO. Th» Emperor Napoleon orders the With- drawal at FrencU Troops. BOSTON. Feb. 7.—Papers received by the Palestine contain the following:— PARIS, JAN. 22.---The session of the French Legislature was opened at one o'clock to-day by the Emperor, who delivered the following speech; — lea Sennteures and Mes la Deputies : —The opening of the Legislatives ses- sions permits of a periodic exposition of the situation of the Empire and the expression to you of my views. As in preceding years, I will examine with you the principal questions which interest our country abroad. Peace seems assured every- where ; for everywhere the means are sought for of amicably settling difficulties in place of ending them with the sword. The meeting of the English and French fleets in the same ports shows that the rclations formed upon the field of battle have not been weakened. Time has only cemented tho agreement between the two countries. In regard to Germany, my intention is to continue the policy of neutrality, which with- out preventing us at times from being displeased or satisfied, leaves us strangers to questions which our interests are not directly engaged. Italy, recognized by almost all the powers of Europe, has strengthened Us unity byiuaugura- ting its capital in the centre of the peninsula. We may count upon the scrupulous execution of the treaty of the 15th, of September, and upon tho indispensillo maintenance of the power of the Holy Father. The bonds which attach us to Spain and Portugal are still more strengthened by my late interviews with the sovereigns of those two kingdoms. You have shared with me tho general indig- nation produced by the assassination of Presi- dent Lincoln, and recently the death of the King of the Belgians has caused unanimous regret. In Mexico, the Government founded upon the will of the people is being consolidated. The opposition, conquemd. aj^,di$^seiL luive no longer a chief. „ J ' t) -TT\\ ! ; from twenty onoln HOVftit As I expressed the hop last yenr, that our expedition wee approaching its termination, I am coming to nn understanding with the Em- peror Maximilian to fix the epoch for the recall of our troops before their return is effectuated without compromising the French interests, which we have been defending in that remote country. NBW YORK, Feb. 8. The following is received by th<: steamship Peruvian, which arrived to-day, in regard to the Franco-Mexican question: The Paris correspondent of the London Times gives a minute account of the circum- stances under which the Emperor Napoleon despatched Mr. Salleard on a special mission to Mexico. He was hurried to the palace, vlien tho Emperor said ho wanted him to set out without d<>iuy for Mexico with a message from him to Maximilian. He was to tell Maxi- milian he considered that he (Napoleon) had fulfilled all obligations imposed on him, and the time had now arrived when Maximilian must depend on his own resources without the hel|_ of the French army. Salloard asked for some credentials, but tho Emp.ror observed there was no necessity for any documents. All he had to do was simply to represent to Maximili- an the conversation lie hud just had and that would sulHce. Ho recommended Sulleard, moreover, to loose no time in setting out lor Mexico, but to depart by the nr:;t steamer. of th e l'<ir«ij;u;iy:m Army . NBW YoifK, Feb. 9, I860.

In compliance with the advice of many who were crowded out at the last doings, an admission fee of 25 cts. will be charged. DR. LISTON COMING AGAIN.—We would an- nounce that Dr. Liston will be at the Cumber- land House, in this village, on Tuesday aud Wednesday, the 6th and 7th of March, when and where he may be consulted in all cases of difficulty or disease of the Eye or Ear. T-Messrs. J. S. M. Whitney and A. Webb, formerly in the employ of Mr. E. P. Francis, Ceuterville, have purchased the stock of goods remaining in the Store, and will continue the business on their own account. The afternoon of Wednesday was made moJe than ordinarly fraternal by the passage of the following resolution: Resolved, That we as a Ministers! Associa- tion welcome back to our midst, Brothers Rev Charles Hagar and Rev. N. Q Axtell; who tor the pa* years have been absent from us enduring the hardships of the camp in severest service for our common and glorious cause.— We hope that the same spirit that moved them to tajse, in their youth, the Gospel Ministry as the mission of their lives, will constrain them now again to take charges among us in the regular work. They have our confidence and onr prayers, that the sword of steel beiii\ sheathed, that of the spirit may be weilded b j them with all their early zeal. On Wednesday morning, it was resolved, to appoint Feb. the 28th, for a General Donation, from the District, to our Presiding Elder, Rev. J. E. Bowcn, at bis residence ip Pittsburgh. We expect that the Ruths who are appointed to glean after the general harvest, will find that many a Boaz has not forgotten to say to the Reapers, \let fall handfuls here and there.\ We hope for a general and hearty response from the District. Rev. P. Widmer, Dr. T. DeForris and G. L. Clark, were appointed a general Committee of notification. THE 96m COMING HOME.— The Ninety-Sixth Regiment N. Y. Vols., Col. Stephen Moffat commanding, arrived in New York on the 9th inst., from Lynchburgh, Va. via City Point and Baltimore. The Regiment numbers about 400 men and officers.

EDITOH:—Lnst week we spent an eve- ning very pleasantly at Mr. Phillips' school. The exercises In spelling suited our ideas ex- actly. He leaches his scholars, old and young, the meaning of the words they spell, thus ren- dering the exercises really an intellectual en- tertainment. Some little fellows no.more than six years old exhibited wonderful fertility of mind. Phillips knows how to keep school. C. H. P. Important Lecture . Next Monday evening, the 10th inst., Prof. Kellogg will deliver his highly interesting, instructive, and pleasing lecture, entitled \A Photograph of American Society.\ He will A GREAT FIELD FOB CHBIST1AN LABOB. — Last Sabbath, at Ihe M. E. Church, we listened to Rev. Mr. Mack, Agent of the American Freed- men's Association. We w^re a little disap- pointed in not learning more facts from him in regard to the machinery of this Association, and the manner in wich it operates. But there are two considerations on which we can safely, we think, predicate our course of action. 1st. There probably never was in the history of our world a more encouraging field for missionary labor, than is now presented among the freedinen of the South—never a time whei the necessity seemed so great and the demand so imperative. He who affirms that the freed- inen are not remarkably ambitious to learn, and are not eager to receive religious truth, cuftp tradlcts alraort —*——^^^^^* ••'* l -^ fp*ng those t . „ _ How tpgWfce mnn io oth^p Tif*fi/>t(cA-l taoJtuoi no w t^xJAtH, D are aware of, through which to reach tliis field than the American Freedmen's Asso- ciation. v Are we wrong in this statement! With these important considerations, is it not evident that this Association has great claims upon us ? Mr. Mack is delegated to canvass the coun- ties of Clinton, Franklin and Essex. A cer- tain young lady of this county, whom we are informed is well qualified for the position, has manifested a desire to go south as a teacher, aud an effort will be made by the agent to raise the means in tlm County to defray the expense of sending aud maintaining her in the field.

The march of the allies in pursuit of the retreating Paraguayans across the Province of Confutes to the Paraguay river, for three hundred miles, through an al most uninhabited country, is described as om of the greatest difficulty and Buffering, uud hundreds of the troops perished ou tho way, and many others deserted.

His interesting description of the order, sys- tem, and neatness of Paris, made one feel somewhat disgusted with many of the oppo- site characterieties in our American citiea. Mr. Bulkley's lecture gave excellent satis- faction.
