BSy-The New York Times of yesterday pub
fishes what purports to be a private letter TO
Senior dor Miranda, dated Rome, December
18th, 1853, which makes rather important dis
closures. The letter is from j. NJ. Gutierrez de
Estrada, and the revelations are in reference to
the establishment of a monarchy IN Aexlco.
The writer proceeds to show that a monarchy
couid notbe established in Mexico without the
active aid of the European Powers, and that
the most effective of them will be France. At
ter canyassing thefelaims of several sclons OF
ROYALTY, he goes onto say that it the European
Powers should object to the candidature OF
Dom Fernando, an Archduke of Austria would
admirably supply the monarchial necessity OF
Mexico, especially as. the GOODNESS between
France and Austria would be likely to induce
the former to oppose such a scheme He pro-
ceeds:
seThe last resource left ue-the i~mpossibility
of the others being assumed-must be a Cath
Ole Prince, of the House of Coburg. This
parsonage can bring to Mexico no other pres
tioe than that afforded by the decided protec-
ton of the Powers who aid IN elevating him
to that dignity But here apprehensions of
the influence upon his family, of predictions
for parliamentary forms, derived from its ALI
ances with royal families of constitutional an
tecedents, are to be entertained .
'sThe negotiation pendingi in Europe is most
important and most delicate. Its successful.
accomplishment requires, therefore, ON the
part Of the Mexican agents not only ability
and discretion, it demands also profound polIt-
ical convictionsin a certain sense, unwearylng
zeafand knowledge of the antecedents of the
question, for it is no novelty. Abflty and
zeal win not supply, in the discussion Of the
points we have treated, the knowledge OF what
has already been done. 1t ID no presumption
in me to assert that no Mexican is better in
formed than I of the antecedents Of the bust
ness, and I will add that this knowledge of the
subject and the persons may do much to facll-
itate its prompt and favorable termination, pro-
vided we have the good will of those who are
to cooperate in the realization of our plans
This done, I shall retire to the obscurlty OF
private life, with the immense satisfaction of
having crowned by my hand the 0difice of
which I aided to cement the cornerstone,
which I assisted to lay eighteen years ago"
"With the greatest fervor / reiterate to your
Excellency nv sincere sentiments of friendship,
and NV devotion as your faithful servant."

Mr. sickles Child visits Him In Prison.

On Wednesday, when it was ascertained that
Mrs. Sickles would be abk to leave in the train
at SIX o'clock the next morning, Mrs. Basloil
carried Miss Laura Sickles to see her father.
Up to this time, out of a dread that the place
in which she should find him would creates horr-
or in her mind, Mr.. Sickles had refused to have
her brought to him, but when he found she
was about to leave and that having been kept
under the impression that he was in New York,
whittier she was going, and that arriving there
and not finding her father she would expert
senoe a great disappointment, he finally gave
orders to have her brought to him, expressing
iat-the same time a fear which afterward proved
to be too we'll founded, that the visit. much as
he wanted to see the child, would result in the
Formation of some gloomy impression in her
mind. Brought down In a carriage on a beautl-
sful day the little girl passed, ina few moments
from the clear sunlight into q vaulted room,
with bare white washed halls and a brick floor;
at first the JOY of seeing her father engrossed
her attention, but soon the strange appearance
of things excited her childish wonder. In one
,corner she found a rack containing a few old
.nluskets belonging to the Jail, and now super
seeded by the more efficient reviewers witt which
the guards are all armed, in another corner
was a narrow cot for sleeping,a poorer looking
affair than her father's servants have; and then
outside the windows there was a row OF iron
bars; and altogether, she was evidently at a loss
to knowEwhat to make OF her 1atner surrouhu-
ines, but fully convinced that it was all very
queer. She wanted to know why her father
did not come home, and was told that he hada
great deal TODD, and could not leave 1t at pres
emit; when she asked if he was not going with
mamma and Laura to New York in the morning
and was answered that he could not leave at
present, but hoped to see his little daughter a
gain soon. hundred questions, such as puzzl-
ed and excitedsehild would naturally raise, were
propounded, and all apparently parried; but at
last some dark forbodings seem to fall upon
her delicate soul, as if the very proximity OF a
prison and criminals shocked the purity which
could not comprehend the meaning OF crime,
forsuddenly her fair little face be came troubled,
and her beautiful large eyes filled with tears
that multiplied and flowed freely down her
cheeks, and, when the fountain was exhausted,
were replaced by sobs. She could give no an
swer to the many coaxing enquiries as to what
made her weep, and her grief was so great that
she was at last taken away by her grandmother,
bearing with her a small bunch of flowers
which her father had culled from a boquet ON
his table, and followed by yearningagony which
caused the strong man to hide his face IN the
pillow and weep the most bitter tears he had
Shed since he has been in prison.-HarPer,s
Weekly.
