Reception o. tie Emperor by .ls reops. Of az1eo


Macmillan and his wife have reached the City Of
Mexico. They have made royal progress from Vera
Cruz to the capital stopping at various towns and vii
ages and receiving the hearty congratulations OF Mex
leans. From the great city as many as i've hupdted
citizens horseback and TWO hundred clas IS, I" with
the principal ana richest faniles conveying, probably
eight hundred persons, went out to meet I'm. A
Northern paper describing his reception eGye:
These thirteen hundred representatives, Of the Mexi-
people not all that hastened to show their
loyalty. Dig0itaries of th7 church-arch bishops,
and priests were there, and With the political welcome
was blended he welcome OF religion. Fati2ued with
this overwhelming demonstration, their imperial ncejes
ties rested in the suburbs and the next day made their
eary into the imperial city There were more address
es and ecclesiastical congratulations, and the
royal cortege passed through the city, the roofs and
balconies crowded with spectators. There were
arches and scafoldngs, strewmcn;s of flowers and all
the auxiaries necessary to nuke up show according
to French usage. The ladies of Vera Cruz having
received the Empress codly, their neglect, which has
been ascribed to their ignorance of monarchca GUS
TOMS aoned for by the homage Of the fair dlught
ers OF Mexico They delivered TO her bghness hard~
some address, which received with gracious benign
ity.
After describing tie welcome the same paper says
Thus far everything has passed Lf happily; but all
is well that ends wel.' The utnos art of tie c1ron
cers Of these has been unavaiDg to conceal the
coldneEs of the welcome. TIE city of Mexico probably
has population of one bundled and seveny five thou
sand inhabitants; ana if there had been tie interest in
lbe appearance of the new ruler which the account
would have beleve Instead of two thousand persoas
going cut to met tiul, tweoty thousand would scarce
have been the proper enumeration. lDstead OF there
being plenty Ct for the regal procession to pass

Garihaldi. The Austrian nominee of the French EN-

his reception 1t correct inform but deficient in
earnestness. few days may enighten him further as
to the pecularities of the people whom he has under

aLmontion of French bayonots; but there are bitter
memories to contrast with their present conditon.-
They are restless, changeabIe aud treacherous Even
if they had received their foreign poeotate with sAti:

SfSR nlETS,

Before the war had afa cted Northern commorce, it

carrying the nIaa, AID in every case where this WAS
withdrawn, the lines fell through. Tbs fate Of The Col

When the war is over, the South will ssek to form
connections by steam with Europe, but question
whether any city in The Conederacy could support q
regular line Of steamers running direct to Earopa, ard
the limitations of the Confederate Constitution would
preclude the idea Of any subsidy in the shape OF matt
compensation bepg granted for the purpose of bolster
ing it up. We could hardly lock fer having steamers

Wilmington is concerned it is evident that the class OF
vessels that would suit for ong run 10 Europe would
draw too much water 70 get bars, be en-
ployed advantagcousiy in trade while experience
has proved that vessels OF good speed and capacity
be advanageousy employed shorter trips as say
