He returned rather tired under a continued ronnd
OF designations and railroad journeys, soon after the
Shah arrived. To the physical fatigue incident to
the part OF the host was added the nervous suffer
ing brought on by recent eccentricities of his guest.

feigned in order to escape further interviews with
the King of Kings. After the departure of the Shah,

aud only after an hour was brought 10 conscious
ness. The Emperor is petulant and vacillaiing.

terest from Peru il, that on the 9th ultimo there
was a great number of Chinese laborers about Lima
and CallaO. There was d report when the steamer

class would make an attack on the Chinese. The

New YORK. Aug. 2I-The Bulletin, referring toa
Times editorial on the subject Of Mexican annexa-
ton, says in speaking of a despatch which the
Times quotes The Importance Of the despatch il
that it affords fresh pretence and argument 10 a
powerful Mexican annexation party. Because it's
stated that Germany wants Mexico, or a good slice
of it. ii is no reason that the United States should
step in and cary off the prize. There will be pow
erful and well organized attempts at Washington
next Winter to provoke a quarrel with Mexico.
The Bulletin admits that there is very little doubt
Of its being favorably considered. High officials
have scarcely tried to conceal their annexation
sympathy, so that the opposition against a scheme
of Mexican ACKNOWLEDGEMENT can only proceed from
the good sense of the American people and the
moderation and discretion of the Government Of
Mexico.
