The sole fact Of the Archduke Macmillan
having authorized the Mexican deputation to
present itself at the Chateau ell Miramar Ia
cummuuicare tn vote of the Notab!es cunfer-
ring upon him the diadem, WAS too Significant
to allow of u doubt US to his acceptance of the
throne.
Itis not the Archduke Maximilian, whose
noble character is heightened by unsurpassed
urbanity, who would have allowed the Mexi
can drpu'ation to undertake so long a voyage
il it were to result in disappointment.
In an autograph letter written by Napoleon
III. to the Archduke after the memorable
vote of the Mexican Notables his Majesty
dweltupon tia necessity Of having the wish of
the capital ratified BY the Mexican nation.-
1t is to this wise and far seeing suggestion of
Napoleon III. that the Archduke wished. to
openly allude, rs may be seen On reading the
| reply Of the Archdukc, which reveals the por.
feet accord existing IN this point between the
Emperor of the French and himself.
After haTing given his reply to the allocu-
tiou Of NJ Gutierrez d'Estrada, the Prince
entered INFO u long and intimate CONVERSE
ton with the members Of the deputation.-
Il have very aitentively followed" said his
Imperial II;ghness, "the monarchial move
ment now proceeding in your country
|. Through the official reports which the Empe-
ror of the Frenrh has been kind enough 70
communicate to me, and the information con-
taineri in the English and Spanish journals,
[ have been enabled TO clearly observe its pro-
gress. Here is map of Mexico, upon which
are exactly marked the points which have
adhered to tho vote Of the nOtahles.. You sre
that they only comprise Il fourth part of Mex
leo. Although | am convinced that tho
French army will very soon deliver the other
provinces from Inc pressure put upon them,
and that then, as you assure me, IN immense
majority will sanction the vote of the 18th Of
July, | owe it to myself as to the nation to
which | shall hencetorth devote my life, not
To assume the reins Of government 20 long as
civil war shall desolate MEXICO. Inform me
thai thc majority has really adhered to my
election, and in less than twenty-luur hours ]

consider ma as a soldier determined TO re-
spend 70 the call of Providence burt for me
70 recognize in an inlallible manner the
finger Of, God in the mission which has
Just fallen to Inc, / must have the national
will manifest itself in terms permitting nj
Legitimate doubt upon the spoutapeity of my
elec'inn."
The deputation could not have been i'm
pressed in q greater degree than it was by the
JUSTICE Of this reasoning, and respecting
the elevated character Of the Archduke's
sentiments unanimously declared that the
Mexican people only desired for the present
70 obta n the acquicscence Of his Imperial
Hlshness to the vote of the 18th of July.
With regard TO the realization of this vote,
the deputation would consider. itself bound to
leave entirely to the wisdom Of the Archduke
the choice Of the epoch.
The Mexican deputation relipquished the
idea of going to Vienna to solicit the honor Of
h"ing presented to the Emperor Francis Jo-
seph.
IL is convinced that to..hasten the departure
Of the Archduke for Mexico it is necessary to
profit by the saiiing Of the next packet from
st. Nazaire ION the 18th %instant). in order To
despatch some of its members to Mexico The
good news OF the acceptance OF the crown by
tho A%:chduke, together with tho measures
which the provisional government, in coniunc-
ton with the commander OF the French army.
is about 10 take il urier to give to the mou-
archical Impulse If Mexico the Development
desired By HE imperial Highness will not be
long in rallying to the vote Of the Mexican
E"tables The great majority Of the country.
The Archdukew will thus he able TO set out for
his now country in the course of February er tho
beginning of M.rch next.
The Archdukc has already so far prepared for
his departure rs to have appointed nh inspector
of the Chateau of Miramar, instructed to main>
tain that delightful residence on the same foot
ing as heretofore.
His Imperial Highness will place Milamar at
the disposal OF the Emperor and Empress Of
Austria, for them to. como and pass part of the
winter there.
Apartments will be specially reserved for the
M-xicans WHO may wish to visit tho former
abode Of their sovereign. .
Before quitting Europe for ever the Archduke
and Archduchess propose to visit the Court Of the
Tuileries, passing en- rontc' through Brussels,
where the AUGUST couple will take leave Of King
Leopold and his flmily.
Three members OF the Mexican deputation
have left for Vienna. whencn they will proceed
t, Paris, where they will make their preparations
for the voyage tu Vera Cruz Three other mems
Venice and Milan Nm. Gutierrez d'Es'rads,
AgriIar, Hida!ro and Arrangoiz will remain a
few days longer at Miramar, the Archdube
wishing to consult them upon the organic sta
.tutes of the future charter of Mexico.
This is SO true that at n grand banquet given
by NJ. Roveitalla. the banker. at his palace. to the
Mexican deputa.ion. at which were present,
among others, the Mayor and President of the

terms, complete appreciation IF this reply.

supported. IT, seems to be now generally ad-
miited that for some time Mexican sffnirs must
remain in suspense. The unhealthy speculation

excitement will gradually ~snbside, until such

Mexico, presents itself.
