The Now York 7Inses' correspondent in
the City Of Mexico, takes IN Imperial View
Of affairs. He says:
Let us suppose the French driven away,
and an American army quaFtered IL the City
OF Mexico. rs 1t once was. Whit viii be done
with the Ne1ieans, Shal1 they b. left with
Republican government, cutting each

many yeara! Shall the several States OF
Mexico be absorbed as Territories, and than

chosen particularly On account Of his good
porsoDAf qualities. However, thus IL the
young Emperor's want Of experience In busi-

and useful reforms. One quality be Ia particu-
larly gifted Hith-that Ii, he e, above all, q
LDt7I, In Ideas aud In practice. Instead Of
having dis1lke for Americans aud American
institutions. he Is actually an Rdmlrer OF the
Republic, and tries to Introduce American
institufions into his donlniona. I understand
that he has been heard to aay:" Repnbllsan-

The greatest mistake made By Ma1imnl1an
and the cause of most Of his troubles, Is the
mistake Of m honest u1an. 30 far, he has
been trying to ciyIltze the Mexicaus by them
selves thxt ls. he uses ne11cans exclusively
to govern. All the ministers and other off,
ctsls are Mexleans. It Is . generous idea,
but deplorable IN its results. Never has a
people been civilized By Itself. 4 gentleman

sT The Lincoln log cabin, SO prominent
an object Of interest at the late Sanitary
Fair In this city, is atill on exhibition on
Boston Common, and WIS honored few
days since BY visit from live English no
bility, In the persons Of the Marquis Of
Drogheda and his lady. They did the sensi-
BILE thing to drop in quietly and incog., mau-
ifested the greatest interest In "uncle
John's' personal "reminiscences, and pur-
chased q liberal amount Of . his s..
cred white oak relics. Not until after
their departure did Mr.. Hanks know
who his Eisltors were. Since then he
has been aeNghted1y repeating to. other
comers the parting assurance Of the lady
that she and her husband belonged ''to the
7erJ large class in our country who admire
Mr.. Lfncoln's charactcr.h Bostonfans are
delighted at the incident, which certainly
does honor to the English party.
