New YORK, Nov lst-The Paris cores
pendent of the London Star says the greatest
sympathy is manifested for the Empress
Carlotta. 1t would appear that her mental
state gave cause for alarm even before her
arrival in France. During her voyage from
Vera Cruz she appeared to be plunged in
the deepest melancholy, and constantly
spoke of the immense responsibility she had
assumed. On arriving at Paris, although
indirectly prepared for the Emperor's re-
fusal to alter the period he had fixed upon
| for the evacuation of Mexican territory by
the French troops she persisted in her de-
sire to have personal interview with Ma
poleOn. The result is known. Although
the Emperor received the wife of Maximili-
an with all courtesy and kindness, he r c.
manned absolutely firm. The Empress un-
fortunately lost her head completely. She
so far forgot her self-possession as to give yay
to the most violent paroxism of excitement.
and made use of language that not only
startled but puzzled the Emperor. This
painful excitement is now readily TO be ac-
counted for.
The first subject which appears to have
disturbed the mind of the Empress was the
clause in her fathers will, by which he
merely gave life use in the 100000 he
bequeathed to her, although he gave her
power to dispose of the principle by will.
The Empress applied to her brother,
Leopold ii, and to the Court of Flanders, to
annul this clause and allow her to devote
the 250000O0 to the consolidation of the
Mexican Empire. Her brother, however,
turned a deaf ear to her solicitation, and
reminding her of the prodigal generosity
with which her husband had spent his own
private fortune, as well as a portion of hers,
positively refused her request.
The Empress cannot forgive this act. and
as she is aware that the King and his brother
have been privately supported in their
decision by the Austrian imperial family at
Brussels, or at Vienna, thence arose her
despair, and the people having declined to
sanction the Concordat proposed by Maxi
milan, her appeal rejected by Napoleon III,
by her own brothers, and by the Pope, it
IS not surprising that her mind has given
way in presence Of so much bitter mortifca-
ton. -
