Nsw YoRK, Dec. 20.
The Herolds Chihuahua correspondent Of
the l4th gives glowing description Of Pres
ident Juarez's bali before leaving for the new
seat of Government After supper elegant
toasts were made, which were responded to
BY IN eloquent speech from General Lew
Wallace, who followed with toast to Mexico
and the Mexican States.
Juarez said the United States did not de-
sire Mexican territory. Official papers Of
the Government says the idea that the Res
pablic will cede territoryto the United States
is absolutely false.
The correspondent thinks that If General
Sherman's mission is to propose protectorste
or officer services of the United States to the
Republicans, 1t will prove failure.
The following is q copy Of Marshal Ba.
zaine's dispatch of the Sd from the city Of
Mexico:
Emperor Maximillian is still in Mexico,
and has not done anything respecting the
future movements of Mexico, requiring it to
be completed by March. transportation
