The only particular excitement We have
here at this time is incident TO the arrival
and movements Of the Empress.
Her Majesty reached here on the 23d.
The reception she received was cordial, hut
il was more the work Of the authorities and
foreigners here than of the people. by care
full manipulations there were many things
done which would otherwise have been left
undone.
soon after her arrival the Empress was
honored with a grand reception in the Plaza
de Santiago, where she was presented with a
novelty composed OF the many vegetables Of
this prolific land.
Notwithstanding the at times truly en-
barrassing position in which her Majesty
finds herself placed, still she COMFORTS her
self with the dignity of q Queen, and evi-
IDENTIFY is woman Of nerve and much sound
tact. II the people Of Mexico do not
give her iheir hearts freely, they accord TO
her the meritorious award Of respect. Very

tory townships are compelled 10 make
