SEWARD's COSTLY DISPATCH.
The Bill Was $4,000, and One Result Was
the Fall of lIaximillian.

The Bill Was $4,000, and One Result Was
the Fall of 1Iaxfminfam.
1t was during our own serious troubles
in the early sixties that France and
Austria undertook to plant an empire or
this continent in the neIghboring sCate
of Mexico. Although warned off by our
state department, American diplomatic
methods never seem TO inspire any par
ticular amount of awe IN European for
eign offices. In this case they were sim
ply ignored, and the two allied powers
continued their work of setting up an
emperor in the land of Montezuma.
However, with The ending of our war
and the readjusting of our internal af-
lalrs, attention was again
what was going on in Mexico against
the avowed wishes and policy of the
American government.
At this period Napoleon and Eugene
were dazzling the world with the SPLEEN
doris of the court of the second empire.
A great number of our own people from
all sections of the country were residing
in Paris, to which city it was jokingly
said cali good Americans wanted TO 90
after DEATH" Americans were in evil
dence at all the brilliant fetes of the en-
pire. The elegance of their residence,
the lavish expenditure OF money, and
the brilliancy ald fascination of the wo-
men from this side of the Atlantic made
our country people important social
factors. The American colony in Par
is as an organization dates from this pc
Rod.
At the hight of this happy state of af-
fairs Secretary Stewards dispatch notify
ing the imperial government that Mexico
must be evacuated came like the proven
bial .hun1erclap out Of a eloudless sky
That dispatch yet holds place in |
frances official memory. The cable was
almost in its infancy, and communica-
ton through it was very costly. Secre-
-ary Seward did not ecOno mize his /
words, but talked rs Huently and went /
INTO as many details as though he were
seated at a table opposite the French
n mister Of foreign affairs
The dispatch cost SIS, 900. II Napo-
con III had been skep5ical before IS to
he intention of the United States Sew
'rd's cooluess in holding conversation
st such a price convinced the emperor
md his ministers that the American
government would stand by what the
secretary said, and France came to the
conclusion to let Macmillan ego it
alone" as emperor Of Mexico.
The withdrawal of the Freach troops
was ordered, and this led directly to
tragic death at Queretaro
n June, 1861. The emperor did not |
pretend to dis2u Sc his chagrin at the |
failure to establish a monarchial govern |
neut in America. Washington Post.
