Only, an attack of rheu matism, e Dlrmiteur says, and His Majesty has now quite recovered. Who knows? And who can, tell us with certainty whether Napoleon% indisposition was,or is,"only an attack of rheuma tism," or whether he has really "quite recovered" from-it? At all events, the official journal admits that he has been confined to his bed for "two days," just at the ;Very moment when the semi , - official pressi (always morejtoperlalist_thnit iteilWis swearing that he has only been In bed for twenty-four hours. But,be this as it may, no one could see Napoleon so much in public as lie has been of late without remarking a great change in him. His corpulency is now becoming at once unwieldly and unwholesome-looking. He has entirely abandoned his favorite exercise on horseback, except when compelled to Mount for review, and then shows symptoms of great fa tigue. Ile has. been unable to receive in person the Viceroy f Egypt; who arrived on the 15th, although gr doubt extremely desirous to cultivate 'lc best possible understand ing with :he roan through whose terri— tories the , uez Canal passes.

The latter, especially, is sarcastically Called a bill to prevent public meetings; with such perils and impedi ments doe It hamper the exercise of the privilege in 'question. Then again, Prince Napoleon has just returned, having evidently kept out Way °Elbe Czar on purpose. Were anything to happen to the Emperor, and the fate of the Em pire to be left in the hands of his wife and sickly son, and exposed to the intrigues of his cousin, I fear all these meetings of crowned heads and the fuss that has been made about them, ,would prove poor seem ity for the future. Meanwhile, the great event of the season is pur suing its onward course—on the, whole, suc cessfully, and •we are now draWing, near to some .of the practical results of the universal Competition of nations. The distriblition of prizes takes place on the Ist of July, and a sort of semi-official list has appeared of the Grand Prizes which have been as yet awarded. By the regulations of the Imperial Commission, 17 Grand :Prizes, of the value of :.!,000 francs each, were assigned to the Fine Arts Department; • mad a sum of 250,000 francs was appropriated for the same purpoSe to the other nine groups. The list of Grand Prizes of which I peak,but which I cannot guarantee the complete accuracy, refers to the latter only. One turns naturally to see how the United StatcAlve fared in,,,this presumed distribution, and 4 find with pleasure, in the 6th group, the name of Cyrus • Field attached to the transatlantic cable, for the bestowal of this highest mark of 'distinction, and that of Mr. Hughes, coupled with the same honors fOr telegraphic apparatus. These are the only American names which 4 ap pear as yet in this list of distinctions, which arc of a higher class than the gold medals. In the same group the Grand Prix for steam engines is awarded to the celebrated French fOundryof •Ciim.ibt. One is somewhat surprised not to find the grand locomotive built at Paterson, New' Jersey, and which has been so--universally ad mired, Marked out for the same distiuetion England, however, or rather Great Britain, with her immense display of machinery In the sixth group, carries oft; according9o this statement, only four Grand Prizes Ogainst two given to America) viz.: one to Whitworth, for machi ' very generally; another to the Life-boat Society; a third (well merited) to Napier of Glasgow; and a fourth to John Penn of Greenwich. The Suez Canal Company is distinguished in the same manner; and so is the Emperor of Russia for his orses, and the Emperor of the French for his model workmen's houses. In the list of Grand. Prizes stated to have been awarded . to the second group, stands conspicuous the.name of_ the- cote- . brated Father Succhl, of Rome; for his wonderful meteorological apparatits One might have ex- peeled to find there also Professor Clum's (of Ro chester, N.

B.REAT BRITAIN.. • Lommx, June 29.—The peblic breakfitst;given this afternoon to Mr. William Lloyd Garrison, in • Saint Jamees Hall, was attended by 400 persons, ladies and gentlemen, some of them of rank in cluding the Duke of Argyle, Earl Russell 'and Mr. Bright, M. P. Mr. Adams, United States Minister in London, was absent. Mr. John Bright, M. P. occupied the' chair. He spoke at length of the, services of Mr. Garrison in the cause of negro enuntelpation and liberty, and referred to the American war, asserting that at the con clusion of that great struggle the United States Government treated the vanquished people in a manner so magnanimous- as was never before recorded in the history of the world.

" . FRANCE.. Curious Report About the Affiisa.ssi,-, lion Plot. The following paragraph, tinder the title of"A Revelation." appears in the Union Rilennite: ",Now dial the Czar has certainly taker, his departure. we may mention a circumstance as yet unknown, and which the Emperor Napoleon, from motives of delicacy, was anxious to keep secret. One of the projectiles of the pistol tired in the Bois do Bonlogno struck the Empetor of _lhe French, but in place of penetrating, the lead only effected a severe contusion in the vicinity of the heart. Ills Majesty would riot allow the Czar, while In France, to learn that the shot intended to strike him had more directly menaced another breast. That decision imposed on the 'press a reserve which Was .faithfully. attended_,,o,.. but which,,. now the Czar has gone, h no longer necessary. The armorer at whose shop the Pole Berezow ski bought the pistol Which he used aganist the Emperor of Russia, has- addressed the folhawing letter to the Paris papers: "While expressing my regret that it should have been at my establish ment that Berezewski bought the pistol, I- yet appeal to your sense of justice to correct the statement. in your journal relative to the qualit of-the arm.

It was sold for Bf., and, mor.ver, Berezowski bought a box of percussion s for Mie., and of bullets for 25c. He also sked for powder, which we declined to give him. If the :inn burst, it was because it was too much or badly loaded, this sort of common pistol not be ing intended for bullets forced into it. It is usually used in rural fifes on the occasion of marriages and . baptisms." Truly a Parisian. advertise ment. ROME. A Papal Address. At the anniversiary of _the Pope's accession. to the Papal chair, his Holiness, in replying to the congratulations of the cardinals, said that during his - Pontificate he had had to wrestle firSt, against the enemies of religion and the Holy See; and, secondly, against the efietiii6 of all social' order', who had as their aim, on the one hand, the advancement of purely material progress, on the other, the total subversion of the principles. of atitliotity, justice and religion,' and to - de ~ spoil the Chnich of her ancient possessions. He had sought to recall the misgiven spirits by encyclical letters, in which were pointed out the funda mental principles of right, hou6sty and religion. He had Leen as the voiceitrthe desert, which had directed the Jews the way they should folio*. The Pope then, turning toward the bishopS, said with emotion, "Venerable brethren, I pray you to.redouble . Your supplications to God and the Immaculate cirgin that we may be delivered from the serious dangers which encompass us. The Vicar of Christ will raise continually this hands to heaven. Sustain him as were.sustained the enfeebled arms of Moses by his disciples. Close round me, that together we may tight axd triumph." In conclusion the Pope said. "Pray God that he may remove the spiritual and tempo ral scourges which now-afflict us. that our souls may be lived from the moral pest, and our bodies from the material pest.: thus the mis— guided nary be saved and the Church Mt-m -ph:mt." • YL%XJMJL The Events Preceding his Execution. The N. Y. lirruld correspondent, who male the campaign With Maximilian, Wvittng from Queretaro under date of June 1, furnishes the following deeply interesting particulars of the prison life and prospects of the eX-Emperor at that dtite. maxixtruxe's rniso N . A stranger might search Queretaro over for the Convent of the Capuchina and fall. to find it. By successive spoliations and breakings up it has long since lost all traces of conventual ap pearance. Once it may have been, and probably was, a stately building of great extent, and im posing exterior. Now, nothing remains out .a row of disjointed.houses of eccentric architectural development.' In one of the most comfortable of these Maximilian and his Generals are. confined. They have been relieved from eranifOrnidd,/, the solitary confinement•and double guard, which in this country usually precede execution, and arc allowed, under certain restrictions, to see civilian friends.' The number of their Visitors la fewfew, indeed. If the ex-Emperor was not previously undeceived as to the extent of the affection which evil counsellors always assured him the Mexican people bore tometdS him, he is so now. None of the Mexicans who fawned on and flattered him to prosperous days 'Conic to see him. now; none tint foreigners care sufficiently for his fate to tisk Liberal displeasure by inquiring after him. Of nil the reverses Which the proud House of Hapsburg has of late experienced this the saddest abd the worst. A scion of that imperial stock shut up in a six-by-nine dungeon, and compelled to ask his life at the hands of a Mexican Indian, who possibly never knew his father, speaks no tongue but his.own, and-has absolutely no idea of the divine right of kings and emperors. Maxi millat?s chief companion is Prince Salm-Salm, so well remembered in the. Army of the Cumber _land,_and-who-proved-hiiself-during-rthe serve one of the best and - bravest Officers in the whole imperial service. ' Together they* and play eearte, or discuss with vivid interest, • not their own probable fate, but 'the politics of Germany and America, With all the vicissitudes of his fortune the Archduke loses none of his warm sympathy for the United States. A101'111)1; and everything American has a strange attraction for him. He listens to Prince Salm- Salm's reminiscences of the great war, with rapt attention; and hearing the story of Chicka mauga, Atlanta and Vicksburg, often expresses his longing to visit the scenes ol srich memorable events. Then; the subject , changing; Gordian politics will come upon " the carpet, and Maximilian, With grave deprecatory face, will , benioun the short-sightedness and re actionary tendencies of his" brother, the Austrian Emperor, advancing , statements to his own part broae anduber eutingtforant Fourth of July oration. A strange pleture,'ls t .not? • Maximilian; tall. and - erect still, 443 bide eyes kindling and his great blonde beard Miiireikc . - lug with excitement, while Salm-Stilta, from whose eye the-inevitable eyeglass bas , , fallen in the 'earnestness of. the moment, speakentsome the.hiading,episodes , of the Anterican War, and with the modesty of true bravery claims for ' him-.. self onlysa: spectator's part in, the :actions ;he so vividly describes.

With all this it seems to me that Maximilian it; satisfied 'with his position, and only so ' far anxioaa for his life in. that ho knows, :with his fate; LT wrapped up: that orraialt (Whip foreign soldiers. For some days before the end of the siege these nearest the person of the Emperor formed an idea that he deliberately courted death, Once when he stood In the plaza . for full ten minutes, while the shells-were bursting ae near him that the. concussion of the pair nearly carried him off Ida balance, this idea was regarded. its a fixed fact. "My firm belief," said Prince.Sahni; Salim afterwards, in his quaint broken Paglish,. "Is dhat he vented to be killed; only I VlBll von he vents to do dat again , he viletake somebody else . mit him,,,not me." The Prince's wish. was-ma - sonable enough; for - the danger to which the Emperor voluntarily and needlessly exposed him self that day was not slight. But no one now can say: that. be is,a .coward, which would have been _spiel ofilluallad anti.left_with..the.Frenc:li.—No-one now can say that he deserted his party, which would also have been laid to his charge had he. left Miramon and Marquez to fight it out by thetnaelt es after accepting their proffered assis tance. - Illa honor is satisfied, and he is careless as to the rest. THE PRINCESS SALM-SALM'S MISSION. On the morning of May 2 the Princess Salm- Saint had an interview with President Juarez at San Luis Potosi, and handed to him an. auto - ;Mph letter from Maximilian asking for time to stilt his counsel and to communicate with-the aft 'Minister, all of Whi - an are at this time the walls of the city of Mexico. A Cabi-- cult his was convened, and the letter laid .rm. To President Juarez it was a --, ,f, vs allowing some temporary . )e out of a most pressing ether ccordingly received the bearer th courtesy, and supported its re the council, Iglesias,: the accom iemanlY Minister of Justice. backing, irdo, Minister of Foreign Relations, /Ig-willed- and virtaitlify- rider-of -the - 'gcd that the. letter be disregarded and Ace of the court martiafbe carried into e effect. Ignacio Melia, Minister of pheld him. Thus the Cabinet was equally .41, and for some - hours a feather might turned the scale in which hung the of. the ex-Emperor. Eventually the _rrapodzing policy, so dear to all Spanish 'nations, prevailed, and the required postpone ment was granted. The same evening Madame Salm-Salni left San Luis Potosi for Queretaro by special. express, arriving hercf on the afternoon of the following day. She was the bearer of a setter froth Juarez. to Maximilian, informing the tau /tide Eniverridore that the time he asked for would be accorded him. It is hardly, necessary to say that this answer was a welcome relief to the pri soners. With time. they felt that one great point was gained.. Nothing could now be done before the fall of Mexico city, and in the meanwhile a hundred influences would be at work in their behalf. . . . WHAT MINISTER_ CAMPBELL' 'MIGHT HAVE DOSE. The presence of a United States Minister is greatly called for at San Luis; and would much simplify the existing complications. But who -ever-la sent must be,a smart man, accustomed to_ the ways of the country, or the Mexicans will get the heat of him. In the wiles and duplicities of diplomacy they have no equals. Our present re presentatives throughout the country are; for the most part, 'either pliant tools in their hands, or naturalized Americans who care more for their own. mercantile interests than for the host ,- ;,r of. their, adopted country.„ln the absence of a United States minister there are no limits 40 the absurd rumors set afloat as to ,the action and intentions of the Washington Government. In San Luis Potosi I was gravely informed that Sec retary Seward had returned a submissive and apologetic answer to' Minister Lerdo's caustic re ply to hismediation despatch. Again, It was universally, believed that forty thousand Ameri- Call trOODs were on the Rio - Grande, with `stores and every requisition for. a march into the Jute; rior. These statements are circulated for a set purpoSe, and have a most deleterious effect in weakening American influence in the country. r. e EM l'ru wititi t. net co before t welcome re . mode of ena genes , .

The news of the massacre of San Jacinto hail just reached Queretaro. I wonder whether - the full facts of that brutal - affair have ever been published—how the.poor fellows knew nothing:ot their impend ing fate till the order came, at three - o - eleek in the morning, for them to form them selves in squads of fifteen for execution— how, with generous rivalry, they scraff,. gled to be first in the procession of death—how the second fifteen. marching with firm step to the Dlace of slaughter, met the mangled bodies of the first fifteen returning, and . So on to the hideous etidand• how, out of one bundred'iind sixty. brave men ten only survived —ten :officers 'of EscobedO's staff hav ing. asked and obtained the privilege saving a life each. Burning with a desire to .avenge his wounded brother's death, Miramon is-. sued a proclamation to his corps telling thein their . enemies had thrown down the gauntlet of a war without quarter, and henceforth war to the knife it should be. Maximilian, even under this strong provocation, vetoed Miratuon's decree in an ad: dress to his troops; Called upon them to be have as became the soldiers Ora eiviliZed nation, and in the hour of victory ..not to forget the re spect due to the vanquished. This proclamation lie constantly enforced by precept and example, and from the first hour of the siege to the last never permitted ansexecution, even when by.all the lawii of war it would have been- justifiable, and ordered that all wounded Liberals, should be treated' with the same consideration as his own soldiers. There were atrocities enough coin-: witted in and around. Queretaro. There would have been infinitely more but for the humane policy inaugurated from the start by. Maxi- I MORE I . IIOII.IIIILITIEB. To this narrative it is only necessary to add that if Maximilian has been *lot, Mena and Mira mon, who were tried with him, were probably 'Shot at the same time. The Mexican way of doing these things is_to _place the -victim in the centre of a hollow square, and then detail four soldiers . to shoot him In the back, as a traitor to the country. The first volley is seldom fatal; but whether_it is_so_or_not-therois-one-course-whiell is invariably pursued—the corporal walks up to the wounded or dead man, puts the muzzle .of his plece.to his left car and blows out hls-bmins. --- .llr this way Mendez was killed,, and thiS has proba-'t lily been the fate of the Empc,ror. Next in order of trial come Generals Castillo, Valdez, Arrellano and Prince BalmSalm,-who holds American pa pers. The prograreme is to court martial them all in batches according to their rank; but with the petty officers it is probable that vary short WO* wilt be made. There are altogether about four - hundred and thirty, among them Major Chrlsnian, en Austrian,long resident In the coun try, who acted as General Scott's interpreter in Maximilian was the son of Archduke Francis, Charles of Austria and Princess Sophia of Bava ria. He was born on the 6th of July. 1862. In -1849 he entered the Austrian navy. On the 27th of July, 1859, he married the unfortunate. Maria Carlotta ,a daughter or the late Bing' Leopold I. of the-e)gians: was apppointed Admiral and Commander-in-Chief of the Austrian Navy. in 1859, and retained ~th i s position until -his acceptance of the Mexican crown.

His personal_appearance has been - described thus:. Maximilian is rather above the middle height, well proportioned,. with powerful high square shoulders.

A black frock-coat, light-colored pantaloons, white vest, and a small black necktie usually consti tuted his morning costume, while in the evening, - at dinner parties, receptions, die., he wore the usual evening attire of aprivate gentleman. He very seldom donned uniform, nor was It often worn at his receptions. When occasions of state rendered It necessary, lie would appear in the . plain dress of a. General of the army.- Ele was very fond of the Mexican costume, always .adopting it when on horseback or in the country, also when traveling. This consisted of a handsome white sombrero, ornamented with silver, and a silver band round it, or sometimes a plain white French wide-a-wake hat of very large circum ference, a 'jacket and vest of ' black. or a dark-- color, handsomely embroidered, and black pants witlid le rows of silver buttons down the out .side seam f each leg.„.„ Smut:times his. riding- k dress ,was e the rancheros of the country, namely, jack vest, and pants of butkolored leather,- usual deer skin, but handsomely embroidered 14 wnamented like the others. vi\ 1, . • r li, 4al A ani i ,_______ THE NDIAN WAD.

Hills, immediately on the proposer' route of the prospecting expedition, who declare positively that no white men, shall come or enter that country without war. For that reason it has been deemed expedient to abandon. the 'pro posed expedition for the present, till a more favorable period. The military order from Lieut.- Gen. Sherman, transmitted to Major-Gen. A. S' Terry, Coulmanding Department of Da kota, likewise forbids any oree„anized expedition to that country at present. "All white people are forbid eroitv I ere at present All vstua go there in spite of this prohibition will not receive the protection of the United States, unless public notice is given that the Indian title to that coun try-is, extinguished.' The promulgation .of this order has , briiken it up, but there are many of the people who entered into this enterprise' in favor of going at all hazards, and of adoptina. the policy of Colonel Sawyers, who, tliough prohibited f! um going with his wagon road expedition, "prepared for - self- protection.- The Sioux Indians, who have .interposed them selves in the way of the expedition, possess a large gm lit ity pt Stock recently captured.

Cherry Creek are ' not ou good terms with Elie, white settlers in that region. They are insolent and overbearing, going about declaring themselves Cheycunes and Sioux. A bad feeling is created arming:the whites by this behavior. 7 It was-understood by the whites that Major Oakes was to havecars _ nished the Ute Indians in the Rocky MountaitiP nithhadges and medals to distinguish them from other tribes. The consequence is that those of that nation having none are looked upon with suspicion; and - serious trouble is, anticipated.- The farmers aremming themselves,' and seemed prepared for an attack Which they conceive la medittited on them, If disturbances brealt Out, Sand Creek will be re-enacted with all the horrible and atrocious 'accompaniments.
