stating that on the 4th instant,
Santa Anna arrived there in the
steamer Virginia, and anchored off
the fort, tho officer in command be-
ing friend of his. That Santa
Anna boastingly announced that he
camo by the desire of both Maxi
milan and Juarez, and supported
by the United States, to take pos
session of the Mexican Government.
These facts were Immediately made
known to the American consul and
commander Leroy, who, believing
the statement to be falso, aftor con
sultation, it was resolved to board
the Virginia and inform Santa An
ma that he and his suite must come
on board the Tullahoma, which he
did, and spent the night there, be-

Mr. DAVIS FUTURE REsIDENcE.-
The Viclssburg Miss. Clarion says:
The report that Mr.. Davis has pur.
chased n residence in Canada is, of
course, without foundation. 1t is
now insisted in some of the. news
papers that he has accepted an in
vitaton from the proprietor of tho
White Sulphur Springs, in Catawba,
North Carolina, to visit that place
on his return from Canada, and ho
will be there with his family in July
or August.
In this connection, it is not i'm
proper that we should publish tho
following passage from letter
written by him Immediately on his
departure for Canada from Now
York:

opportunity was at hand, to have
FASTENED TO u reunion with my

loug, trailing skirts chain and beads
icstooned about the narrow hips,
and over the straight serenity of tho

ears; beads or chains about neck

rich bracolcts--thcsc are the points
that first strike one on seeing tho
gorgeous, glittcring throng.
There are some, however, whose
taste has made their toilets as fresh
and charming as q June morning.
One of these ladies wears u lilac silk

with plain lilac bands, corded with
white satin.
Another charming dress, but much
more striking, is of maroon .colored

with white silk and chrystal fringe.

Short silk sacqnes, basquincss, and
peplums are not elegant over very
long gored and trained dresses and
it being too warm for chashmere or
paisley shawls, lace is brought into
requisition. They are, however
somewhat expensive; the lowest
price for even lama lace shawl or
cloak is forty or fifty dollars, and
from this tho cost ranges all tho
way up to two thousand.
A handsome lace shawl, or cloak,
is however, considered indispensa-
bio to n lady's wardrobe, and is real.
ly useful in thousand ways.
One of the great features of the
season is the rich silk and let en-
broidcry lavishod upon costly silk
c!oaks and dresses. Magnificent
toilets of black gros grains are lit
orally covered with embroidery,
and many are wrought in exquisite
designs upon the seams, or so as to
describe sashes or pointed basques
upon the skirt, in addition to the
border round the bottom. This EN-.
broidcry is executed by hand, and
gives an infinity of labor to the com.

JAUREz, the he Indian. under
whose successful Military leadership
Macmillan was murdered, was an
exile betwcen 1852 and 1855, and
did a small business in cigarettes at
NIX SOpieans. He was born on the
lsthmus of Tehauntepec, of Indian
parents, and beginning life as a
menial in o store in the city of
Oaxaca, afterwards learned to read !;
was sent to school by his employer,
whose daughter he afterwards mar
ried. He studied law, removed to
the Mexican capital, and after a
successful practice Of some years, be-
came Supreme Judge and President

marked BY acts Of cruelty; and it
may be that his late ones have been

fore Lees retreat from Pctcrsbrg, his
army numbered only 33, 900 men,
Gen. Rosscr then had command Of
ono-third fthc cavalry, which was
less than 5000 men. Having line
of moro than forty miles to main
tain, the men became wcarricd out
by constant labor, and knowing that
re;nforcements could not be obtain
ed they became detected. Gen.
Grant, profting by his experience
of his predecessors, did not attempt
q direct attack upon Lee, but tried
to manDuvre him out Of position
The failure Of Picket to di,lodgo
Sheridan from Dihwiddio Court
House, and his own defeat, and the
capture of Five Forks by Sheridan
and Warren, on the 80 of April,
were the critical events which COM
pclled the evacuation Of Petersburg.

ized as on of the most mastery
steps of the war. But the dcstruc=
ton of Early's corps at this juncturc
decided. in Gen. ROs ers' opinion,
Gen. Lee to surrender, which is
proved by the fact that he immedi-
ateiy Withdrew from the railroad n
bandOning his design Of retreating
to Lynehburg, which he could have
made good aud allowing his enemy

Tho New York correspondent Of
tho 81. Louis Times, sNys:
The steamship Quaker City, with
Capt Duncan's excursion party, left
her wharf on Saturday afternoon,
but was detained oil Long Island,
by foul weather. until Monday
The party numbered about eighty,
1t was intended to mako up q COM
pany Of ono hundred and fifty, but
when Beccher aud Shcrman-thc
two stars-said they could not go,
several others who were looked for
the trip changed their minds, and
concluded to stay ut home, The
backsliding Of young llendershott,
"the drummer boy of the Rappahan-
noch," was another blow to the
project. Tho gay young drummer
ran away with the wealthy daughter
Of u gentleman in Poughkeepsie,
and after such disreputable pro.
ceeding rs that, he could not, Of
course, bo allowed to join n party
headed by Beccher's right hand
man.
But Notwithstanding its many
drawbacks, the party got Off in prct.
ty good spirits. The absence of
Beecher and Sherman was partly
compensated by tho presence Of
Mark Twain and Moses Beach
Mark brought several now jokes
with him, and Beach broughtN lot
of printing materials. The jokes
will be useful after tho customary
tributes to Neptune are paid, and
the printing materials will be handy
in getting out the little newspaper
that Mr.. Beach intends to publish
on the ship. Enough ofgood liquors
wines, principally-to keep the
Union Club for a twolvcmonth, went
on board before sailing, and all the
arrangements were made with 4
view to fun, frolic and good follow
ship generally. There We're min
listers, editors, lawyers, actors and
merchants the party, and if they
don't have good time it won't be
for want of trying. They will visit
all the celebrated places in Europe,
including the Holy Land, and ex,
pect to get.back TO New York about
the first of November .lL
CAPT. DUNCAN A BANKRUrr. 3
Just before the party sailed, Capt.
Duncan, it's protector and general
manager, appeared in tie United
States District Court, as petitioner
for the benefit of the Bankrupt act
The petitioner sets forth that Dun
can 4 Co., who did business at No.
II Wall street, and the same parties
who did business under another firm
name in Liverpool, failed about six
months ago for one hundred and
eighty thousand dollars. An as
signment was made, but the assets
barely cover a fraction OF the in-
debtodness, and Capt, Duncan wants
to be released from his liabilities. -
His petition was fled, butno further
action in the case can be taken at
present. In projecting the excur-
sion to Palestine, Capt, Duncan
calculated on making some money
out of it, but finds himself disap-
pointed. The receipts for passage
will not more than cover the cX.
pcnses of the trip. . ,.I
