mors that our government had consent.

of the withdrawal of the French. .
1t is said that Maximiliani is tired of
having French rod continually held
over him. He is said to manifest com.

1t is thought that he hopes soon to over.

wealth of the country He is said to
be anxious for American settlers, who
will bring with them skill, ingenuity
and industry, as well as modern inYen-
tions in machinery.
The Imperialists are represented as
being very much surprised to learn of
apprehcnsions in Washington that
would establish slavery -
They are inclined to regard him as enter,

LETTER FROM GEN. HOWARD
Rumored Resignation Of Stanton.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-The Herald's
special says: Mr.. Stewards speech before
the. Cooper Institute meeting is invested
with additional interest and significance
by the fact of his receiving two or three
dispatches from Senator Nye and Others
in this city, stating that the President
had made terrible speech, one that he
could not possibly approve or endorse,
aud one that must eventually break up
the Republican party. Mr.. Seward was
not deferred, however, and on learning
what the President had said telegraphed
full and cordial approval.
The wiseacres on the street and in
the lobbies seem more than usually In
earnest tonight in their averment that
Secretary Stanton has sent in his resig-
nation, One thing tends to coroborate
this assertion, and that is the special
order given by Stanton this morning
that all papers awaiting his signature
should be prepared and brought before
him with all possible dispatch.
There is well authenticated report
that General Steedman has been tele;
graphed to come to Washington Tor
