We have q reiteration from New

sui at Matamoras has been dismissed
by MaXimilian, on tho ground that our
Government does not recognize tho
imperial authority in Mexico. We
have direct in formation that the
French authorities ut Matamoaas, and
the rebel officials at Brownsville Tex.
rs, are on the best OF terms, but wo al
80 have the fact that United States
commercial agent has just gone to Mat.

little doubt whether the absence OF our
Consul from Matamoras is compulsory.
There is no question that Macmillan
is chagrined at his non recognition
from the United States, Theprescnce
ofa U, S. Consul deputod to tho Jua,
rez Government in port held by the
Imperialisls, is anomalous. Still il
seems II little improbable that the new
