New YORK, August A significant oya-
ton in honor Of the Mexican Republic, as
represented in the United States BY General
Ortegn, took place last evening. At 10
o'clock a large assemblage gathered, when
the band Of the Seventh Regiment serenaded
the distinguished Mexican, who was accom-
panied by two members Of his staff, and sur
rounded by a large number Of American and
Mexican citizens.
The following extract from O letter written
by Sheridan was read:
"There is no use to beat around the bush
in this Mexican matter. We should give a
permanent Government to that Republic.
Our work in crushing the rebellion will not
be completed until this takes place. The ad-
vent Of Macmillan was q portion Of the plan
Of the rebellion, and his fall should belong to
its history. Most Of the Mexican soldiers in
Maximilian's army would throw down their
arms the moment we crossed the Rio Grandc.
French influence is governed by their impu-
dence."
This letter was greeted by all present with
enthusiastic expressions Of qualification and
delight.
