Since the sailing of the last steamer,

of power, and it can only keep itself in
office by the most stringent measures.
Great disappointment has been felt by

Then this country, though long distracted by
war, regarded the adventure from the outset
with great jealousy and aversion, which passed
into open opposition, and which has now taken
a menacing form. Mr.. SEWARD forbade the
dispatch of any fresh European forces to Mexi-
Team territory, and the enterprise became SO un-
popular, finally, that the views taken at Washt
ington but coincidcd with the resolutions al
ready adopted in Paris. In the meantime the
small French garrisons, outreinforcements,
do little more than protect the capital and the
high roads to the coast. The OLD factions, at
one time almost driven across the border, re-
covered strength and, as events brought
them greater and greater, encouragement, they
have closed around the Emperor and his guards
on every side All this while the sinews of war
and government have been wanting. The
French could not be expected to find the reve-
nue., and the Empire could find none for itself,
so, as with ancient monarchies, the final catas-
trophe is aaid to be financial.
There was possibly, miscalculation at the
bottom of the enterprise itself, but as regards
| the conduct of it there seems to be but two
faults with which the Emperor NAPOLEON can
be fairly charged One was his failure to
recognize the Southern Confederacy thereby
having q friendly ally of great strength on this
continent. The second, in holding on to one Of
| the =Mexicun factions and condcmning the
other He closed with the party opposed to
JuAREz, which had, at least, the disadvantage
in title and prctensions, and was probubly-if
precedence was possible between such candi-
datcs-thc more worthless faction of the two
JuAREz had offered terms, but they were refused
and so, driven like more respectable patriots
into exile, he at last organized successful re-
sistance to the invader If he has acquired in
the process any such principles Us beft con-
stithtional ruler, or any such poweras is neces-
sary to sustain government we may see On
independent Mexico in the list of civilized
States; but we are not yet acquainted with any
facts which could induce belief in such on
event. In fact it is more than probable that
SO soon as MACMILLAN leaves the country On
.rEoA will make his appearance, and then the
result is war between his faction and that Of
JuAREz and, therefore, it is far more possible
that there will be return Of confusion another
period Of murderous anarchy, and the ultimate
result will undoubtedly be, that the country
will be absorbed in the Government Of the
United States. 4

Legally, perhaps, he Gould not be so suspended
of his office; but, mthe present state Of facts,
the laws and Constitution of the country are
the voltions t.of that party..1f they shall
chose to saythat the President is suspended,
and that 1.-The Government belongs to,them, upon
presentation Of articles of impeachment, there
is mo civil authority Of sufficient force to con-
tradict them
In such conditions the President, in defence
of the country, is called upon to act, and
whether he be prepared for the occasion is a
question of most momentous interest. To sus-
tain his position, it would seem to be necessary
that he should come to an issue of physical
force It is not apparent that he will tender
such an issue; it is not necessary that such an
issue should be rendered by the other side
they may accomplish every purpose they desire
without it-and it is not apparent, therefore,
that such IN issue is certain or impending But
it is painful to believe that without it the con-
ditions of success are with the opponents OF
the Government; that in consistence with
powers exercised and concedcd they Gun ac-
complish whatever other steps may be necessa-
ry to complete dominion and to us, even in
our deep Affections, source of pain that the
fortunes of the country are so dependent, and
that acts of further violence should be necessa-
ry to their vindication.
p. S.-Since the above was written, our tcle-
graphic dispatches inform us that the Governor
has decided to remove the Police Commission
crs, and that there is great excitement and the
probability of difficulty in-consequcnce.
