It is liarned trotn officers of th& Freeci men's Bureau, tbat no part of the Arlington' estate, opposite Washington, has been cul-i tivated by the government this year Nearlj four hundred acres of tbe larm were rented to 1 reed men last spring in tracts 'of from fire to ten acres each, and though some of the land had pever been under cultivation be-; fore, having been cleared up during the war, they have all done well and the crops are good.' The government 4ttwns the estate; having bought it ata tax sali in -1862, anil the sub-commissioner for this district re commends the sale of a portion to worthy freedmen V who are heads of "families", each purchaser. being limited to teilacrcs Nearly seventy families are now living in -the so called FreedmenV Village'' on the place, in houses put up by the government four years ago. They all pay rent. ' ; ' A copsnleral)le number of freedmen from thi? city and vicinity have become landhol ders by purchasing ( lota 6a iihe so-called "Barry Farm," just across the river, and not far from the Insane Asylum. - This farm was bought last spring under orders from - Gen-4 era! Howard,1 and its thre4 liundred?and seventy-five acres were laid oftinto lots of one acre each, of which : one hundred, and eighty have already been sohl to freedmen, on two years. time,.. with equal ;intnthly;'pay: muats. -About aiinetv Jioases "will be built and occupied before New Year's, and . pay ments on the land have almost without ex ception been promptly and regularly madej The freedmen have bonrht and oaid or one lot uponwhich a handsome schoolhouse is now biiing built. This esperimeut lias been so successiul that thcgovernmeut, would undoubtedly be justified in selling a 'part of the Arlington farm to this new class of citizens as : propos-j ed by the sub-commissioners Cor. Boston Daily Advertiser.. In England, the : newspapers seem to have1 expected some fresh revelations about Mexic from 'n volume which has been widely ad.ver j tiseu and heralded, under the title oi "VVitl Maximiiiaiv in Mexico from the Note Book! ,of a Mexican Officer," by S: ax Baron vonl Alvensleben, late lieutenant of the Imperial Mexican Army. The book, ' however, proves, to be nothing more than a narrative of per sonal adventure, very much after the style of Capt. Mayne Reid. The Baron was in the United States army, and being released from military allegiance in January last year, de termined to offer his sword to the struggling empire. Alter some scrimmages at Mata moras, he set out as part of an escort to a convoy of supplies for Mexico. On the way the force was 'litacked and nearly destroyed .by Esbobedo. The Baron was taken prisoner and afterwards, assuming the character of a Juarist officer, escaped. The little he gays of the; French, is bitter enough, and of the Mexican Imperial Generals, especially Gen eral iAlvurez, he speaks in contemptuous terms. : While dwelling -upon the cruelties of the Republicans, he narrates feiocious acts on the part of the Imperialists without ap pearing aware of their character. thus when the couvoy was , attacked, Escobeclo sent a flag of truce with a summons to sur render, when the Imperialist commander Calling out We do not treat with robbers," shot ! the truce-flag bearer dead. To wards the close of his adwntures while on the way to ueoia iroui vera uruz, tne rrencn mounted infantry brought in some guerillas with 'their 'ears cut oft. AH that the stolid German says of this is : "-'Being Egyptians, it seems the pursuers had- treated the pris oners after the custom of their own country." There is a curions story in the book which reads like a bit from an opera libretto. It is of a scene at a masked ball at Mexico, where Baron Alvensleben followed two to a room, aud looking and listening, found them tb be General Lopez and a spy named Tomas de Leon, whom the Baron says he afterwards killed. The dia logue is thus reported : "Well," said Lopez tiow do matters stand ? Does the cause pros per ? Do they agree in our, views ? " "Fullj , Senor. No one doubts of the speedy fall of the empire now that the French have left. Los Estranjeros must be massacred to' a man." "Good I", was the cold blooded reply. "We must serve the Emperor so long as anything is to be got out of him ; then let him go witn the rest. As for Mejia, that scoundrel," cried Lopez wildly, "he shall not fall in obscurity, in, the darkness of night, s-by the dagger or by the sword. Nol he shall perish publicly, in the face of day ; die like a traitor by the bullets of patriots." Thia-is settling the question of Lopez's treachery off-hand, "tut the Mexican s version- is yet to be had.- Balt. Daily Advertiser.
