New YORK, Dec. 3d. The Worlds
Washington special containg the fol-
Adv{ces from the city of Mexico con-
tain some very interesting statements
with reference to the treaty entered
into by France, Austria, Italy, Spain
and England to guarantee Maximilian's
throne. 1t is now alleged that this
treaty was signed some sixteen months
since, before the war for the Union was
closed and when the opinion was uni
versally held abroad that the rebellion
would be successful. The guarantee of
the integrity of Maximilian's empire,
however, remains, though it has not
been deemed prudent to make it known
up to this time. Recent events, espe-
cially the diplomatic correspondence
since the close of the war, has made it,
in the opinion of the upholders of Max
imilian's authority, desirable that the
textof the treaty should be given to the
world. 1t Is understood that the next
mail from the city of Mexico will bring
the text of this treaty, which will be
published in the Diario, the official
organsof Macmillan, at the Mexican
capital. e-ii,
The advices from that quarter also
state that Macmillan and his friends
entertain no apprehension respecting
the permanencS of his empire. In adj
powers there are large material inter-
ests at stake. One company, French
one, is building road from the city
of Mexico to the Pacific Coast while
another company, an English one, is
building a road from Vera Cruz to the
city of Mexico. Maximilian's supper
tiers boast that these two roads viii be
completed before our Pacific road, and
that it will secure good deal of the
traffic of the East Indies and Eastern
Asia, which we hope to manopolize by
the building of the railroad to the Pa
manufacturing associations, and other
large enterprises on foot, both in Eng
land and France, who have claims on
their respective governments which will
induce them to insure the permanence
of the Mexican Empire.
