NEW YORK, MAY 12 (Evening).

General Canby reports that Dick Taylor surren-
dered on the 4th inst. on the same terms as Lee.

Kirby Smith has published an appeal to his sol-
diers, dated Shrieveport, April 21, denouncing
Lee's surrender, and exhorting them to stand by
their colours. He says that his resources are ample
to protract the struggle until foreign aid arrives, or
until such time as they can secure terms worthy of
a proud people.
It is said that a standing Federal army of
150,000 men will be maintained, consisting of one
corps of volunteers, one corps of regulars, and two
corps of negroes.
General Sherman is in Washington, giving evi-
dence before the Congressional Committee.

A grand review of Grant's and Sherman's armies
will be held at Washington shortly.
The Navy Department has ordered that vessels
with United States' Customs clearances can enter
all ports designated in the President's proclamation
of April 20, provided they have no contraband of
war on board.

The New York Herald affirms that the United
States will declare neutrality between Juarez and
Maximilian, and that Mexican loans will be nego-
tiated in New York the same as Confederate loans
were negotiated in Paris and London. It adds that
if Juarez wishes privateers he can buy them in
American cities.

It is reported that a public meeting in favour of
Mexican emigration will be held at New York,
under the auspices of accredited Mexican agents.
General Eosecranz has made a speech denying
either connection or sympathy with the emigration
scheme, and warning the soldiers never to join in
buccaneering expeditions, but to return to industrial

pursuits.
The Courier des Etats Unis says that Seward
proposes to present M. de Montholon to Johnson,
and if prevented by his health he will write or in-
spire the answer which Johnson mill give.
Seward opposes all breaches of neutrality, and it
is not feared that complications will arise from this
cause. Seward is said to have openly expressed
himself in this sense to Johnson and the Cabinet.

The press universally denounce the secrecy of the
trial of the Booth conspirators. Reverdy Johnson
will defend Mrs. Surratt. The names of the coun-
sel for the prisoners have not yet appeared. Mr.
Sanders has returned to Montreal.

Gregg, one of the St. Albans raiders, has been
rearrested, charged with robbing the National
Bank.

President Johnson, in his address to the coloured
population, said that he trusted the time would
come when all the coloured people would be as-
sembled in one country best adapted to their con-
dition, if it should appear that they could not get
along with the whites.

The ram Stonewall was off Nassau on the Bth.

Brownsville papers of the 22d ult. state that 1,100
Imperialists had arrived at Matamoras from Mon-
terey. A fight took place with Negrett near that
city. The Imperialists retreated, and Negrett occu-
pied Monterey.

The Royal Mail steamer Africa, from Boston and
Halifax, arrived at Queenstown yesterday at 2.50
a.m. She brings 162 passengers and 305,715 dots.
She landed 128 sacks of mails and nine passengers,
and proceeded immediately.

NEW YORK, May 9, Evening.

The New York Times asserts that Juarez hasissued
letters of marque against the French. Four letters
of marque for the Pacific waters were seen a month
ago, and similar letters have been issued for the
Atlantic.

A Mexican Emigration Company has been formed
in New York, with agencies throughout the United
States, and has advertised for naval and military
emigrants. A large number have already been
enlisted.

The Herald publishes, but does not guarantee the
correctness of the following particulars. The
managers of the company will avoid violating the
neutrality laws :
Emigrants are invited to settle in Sonora under
the authority of a special invitation from Juarez.
They will be furnished with weapons to defend
themselves. Common emigrants will receive 1,000
dols. each and 100 acres of land. Captains and

The Herald does not apprehend that the Govern-
ment will throw obstacles in the way, and says the
emigrants propose quiet colonisation in Sonora.
Secondly, to aid the overthrow of Maximilian,
they profess that they will not commence the offen-
sive, but will retaliate if attacked by Maximilian's
troops. They believe Maximilian, upon hearing of
the emigration scheme, will abandon Mexico, and
they will then become the allies of Juarez against
the ascendancy of the Church party.
The Republican party generally discountenances
the scheme, and attributes to the Democratic Jour;
nals which support it a desire to involve the United
States in a European war, as a diversion in favour
of the Democratic party who hope to restore the
South to an influential position in the national
councils.

The Courier des Etats Unis calls upon the Federal
Government to fulfil its neutrality obligations, and
forbid any organised armed emigration. It declares
that the emigrants will not receive treatment as
prisoners of war, if captured with arms in their
hands. _ __

It is asserted that Maximilian
has agents in New
York inducing people to espouse his cause.
The Herald urges the Government to call a Con-
gress of all nations to assemble at Paris Which
might peaceably establish the Monroe doctrine,
settle maritime belligerent and neutral rights,
define the status of insurrections, and adjust dis-
puted boundaries. The United States, it says, do
not want either Canada, Mexico, or Cuba, but if
other Governments fail to meet to settle the ques-
tions above indicated, American public opinion will
in some way form a settlement regardless of revo-
lutionary consequences to European Powers.
The New York Times denies that the United
States have any hostile intention towards Canada.

The arrest of persons implicated in the Booth
conspiracy continues.

According to the New York Times Johnson's pro-
clamation offering rewards for the arrest of Fresi-
