Now our yachtmen choose the DARING BOND ROBBERY. ‘Tire Latest Phase of the Mexican Dimicalty. Ouy' special correspondence from Vera Cruz, up to D.:cember 4, published in another part of the pa'per, presents the Mexican difloulty under @ BAW phase. Our correspondent, faith- ful to he daty, presents the facts as to what had occurred and as to the confusion of ideas that existed‘in five “heroic city” about General Sherman, Minister Campbell and the Susquo- hanna, their destination, what they were going to do and what they were not going to do, as well as about the purposes of Maximilian and the Emperor NaSoleon. He throws some light also upon thé intrigues and prob- able designs of the different parties, including those of the old Milramon- Marquez church party. He gives us, besides, @ proclamation, or pretended proclamation, which had been circulating several days in Vera Cras, stating that Maximifien had deter- mined to sacrifice all for the Mexicans, “even to the extent of shedding his last drop of blood in defence of the nation.” It was stated con- sequently in the best informed circles (impe- rial) that Maximilian would return to the city of Mexiso and fight owt la's imperial réle to the last. Looking at all the ciremaustances surround- ing Maximilian’s situation, at the tenor and phraseology of this: promanc iamiento and at the fact that av name ‘is signedi@o it, we atrongly suspect it is‘ a‘satirfeal howx got up by some fgenious Mexican, secretly ofa liberal party, for the purpose’of throwing riith ule on Maxi- milian’s pretensions aad dilomm% The fact stated by our correspondent ttm’ this docu- ment had not been disavowed offoiia lly, though it Bad been in circulation four days |, does not prove its genuineness. W¥ genuine. there is little doubt but some reésponsitid'e name wont? have been attached to it. , Besides, The Arrest of Surratt and the Conover Case: In the long list of causes céldbres, we do not remember one which has excited more interest or given rise to more speculation, than the case of John H. Surratt. With him it is believed rests the power of clearing away the doubts which exist as to the guilt of his wretched mother, and, what is far more important, of solving the question as to the complicity of Jeff Davis and his Secretary of State, Benja- min, in the assassination plot. The case of Conover, at present arraigned for perjary in connection with the latter of these charges, acquires fresh importance from the arrest of Surratt. So much mystery attaches to the pro- ceedings in which this man Conover was con- cerned, and so completely did he succeed in humbugging Judge Holt as to his power of throwing light upon the guilt of Davis, that the chances which are now presented of a thor- ough elucidation of the facts are regarded with very general satisfaction. Much, of course, will depend on the willing- ness of Surratt to gratify the anxiety which exists on this subject. If he remains obstinately silent but little will be gleaned in addition to ithe evidence already in our possession. We much mistake the character of the man, how- ever, if he does not make a clean breast of it. The cowardly part which he played in tho de- sertion of his mother shows that he is a per- son of weak nerve. The fear of death and the hope of a commutation of punishment in return for the disclosures he has it in his power to make, will, therefore, we feel convinced, bring him to a full confession. On the trial of the assassins who have paid the penalty of their crime the escape of Sur- ratt was frequently commented upon as remov- ing from the reach of the prosecution one of the most important links in the chain of evi- dence which the case presented. Much was expected from his arrest. His infirmities of character, his want of moral courage and the lengths to which he would have gone in the efforts to clear himself would all have proved 80 much additional help to the prosecution. ance, lq @00d reason to believe that we should now be 4 0 possession of all the facts connected with 4s visit to Richmond.
