gathered at that point, where Graffulus Seventh
Regiment band serenaded the distinguished Mex
lean, who was accompanied by two members Of
bis staff. and surrounded by a large number of
American and Mexican citizens Speeches and
toasts were mingled with other festivities. and
the occasion was replete with interest and enthu-
sissm.
3Ihe following extract from a letter written by
Major General Phil Sheridan, was read.
There Is no use to beat around the bush in
this Mexican matter. We should give per-
manent Government to that republic Our work
in finishing the rebellion will not be done till
this takes place. The advent of Macmillan
was portion of the rebellion, and his fall should
belong to its history. Most of the Mexican sol
diers OF Maxmilian's army would throw down
their arms the moment we crossed the Rio
Graude The French influence has governed by
sheer impudence
his letter from Gen. Sheridan was greeted by
all present with enthusiastic expressions of pleas
ure and delight.
