After leaving La Soledad tho Emecror
continued on his journy to Soma Alta, a
station of the diligences a few miles furlht r
on, in a bleak, rocky, dry and arid coun
try. Tho military aud vivic authorities of
Vora Cruz, who had accompanied him

cordial manner, and tho imperial cortege,

coaches, continued on its way into the in

towering amid the clouds to tho height of
over seventeen thousand feet, however,
drow forth an exelamaiion ol wonder and
delight from tho Emperor and Empress,
as it stood firm and gigantic, its silvery
head glistrning iu tho morning light. The
ascent of the mountains of tho Chiquihuite,
a most formidable placo for defence, was
necessarily slow and toilsome, bad it was
not until two o'clock noxt morning that
the vast train of carriages rattled through
the streets of the ueat little town of Cor-

tho Emperor, tho city was partially illu
minated even at that oarly hour, and a
number of peoplo wero still lingering about
tho atrcets to seo tho entry of tho Emper
or. Mrs, Almonto, tho wifo of General
Almonte, was horo awaiting tho Em-
press, and without delay entered upon the poor of tho city. Ho also ordered tho lngo of coal burners, formorly notod as a

At half past ten o'clock, after somo
necessary repose had been takon, the now
sovereigns signified their desiro to proceed
to tho cathedral, and to givo thanks to
God (or their sale arrival in their new em
pire. High mas was accordingly said at tho
pariah church of Cordova, and the Em
peror, Empress, aud the wholo household,
guards, escort and evcrybotly attended,
This being concluded, the Emperor ro
turned to the palace, wharo he received
tho members of tho Ayuntamichto ond
other authrritics ol the city, making bricl
addresses to them in reply to their fervent
congratulations on his safe arrival. In
the evening of the same day a grand ban
quct took place, at which all the principal
authorities wero present, and by the ex
press desiro of tho Emperor two Indian
alcaldes wore also invited. His Mujesty's
kindness to the nativo races is not lost up
on lliu people, who regard in this a sign of
tho advancement of their children from tho
baseness and igorraucctu which they have
been hitherto held.
Early nnxl morning, tho 31st of May,
the cortege again moved out of Cordova,
on its way to tlio city of Orizaba, a place
of considerable wealth and importance.
.there was no enthusiasm to speak of
marking their Majesties' departure, though
the people seoined pleased at the gayety
and magnificence of the aurrouudiug.

town of Navarcjal, bringing with them all
kinds of exquisite fiuits. Tho chief mado
a tender address to thoir M.vjoatius in their
original tongue, which was translated into
Spanish by tho licentiate Chitnalpopoca.
His Majesty's reply was also turned into
the Indian lanutiagc by tho interpreter,
muoh to the delight of the natives, whose
broad visages beamed with smiles of tin
uttcrablo joy.
On the afternoon of tho .'3d of June the
imperial party left Orizaba, and was ac
companied by tho political prefect anil
other authorities to Ruonte Colorado, tho
limit between Orizaba and Puebla. The
authorities of this latter placo were, how
ever, on the spot to tako up tho escort, so
that there should be no break in the chain
of honors. A sumptuous repai-twas here
provided for their Majesties, who lor the
firet time ince thoir arrival in Mexico par
took of mole de guttjotote, lorlifus eo
chile, and pulque fino, naiivo Mexican
dishes and drinks, of which no ono can
lortu an idea by a mcro description in
words. The meals wore served on the
ho ght- of Aculizingo.a romantic aud beau
tiful place, whero but a few resolute meu
might hold a very large force at by. The
Emperor and Eni ress ascended these nuut
bres on horseback, tho better to observe
the magnificence of the scene, continuing
their journey in this way to tho Canada ol
Ixtapa, whero thoy wero regaled with the
fiuest fruits and wines which could be pro
cured. Late in the evening tho wholo party
arrived at San Aupustin doPalniar.a sort
of half way houso between Orizaba and
Puebla.
At seven o'clok on tho following morn
ing they again loft Palmar, arriving at
Aeatzingo in limo for breakfast. At nine
o'clock that evening thoy arrived at Nona
oa, a small village some two or threo miles
from Puebla, where the whole party pass

After leaving Oholula tho party proceed

til thoy arrived at Kio Frio, a small val-
them to prefer entering by way of tho rail
road, so as to enable them to stop at the
chapel of "Our Lady the Virgin of Guad

boar masB there. This plan was accord
ingly carried into effect.
Time will not permit mo to go into any
general description of the imperial ontranoo
into Guadalupe and tho transit thenco in
to Mexico, It was a grand ovation, mark'
ed by evidencos of wealth, taste and re
finement, thotth not by much enthusiasm.
At two o'clock P. M. on the 11th their
Majestic entered Guadalupo, aud tho next
day (Sunday, the 12thj thoy mado fheir
triumphant !utry into the city of Mexico
itself. They were accompanied by an ex
cellent military escort of French "and Mox
ican soldiers, somo three or four thousand
in number ; by a largo assembly of In
dians, and an immense concourse of car
riages, with ladies and gentlemen. The
soeiio was a very inspiriting oio. It is
rumored that the Emperor will shortly be
crowned in the OJthcdral.
Letter from the Army.
We bavo been permitted to make the
following extracts from a letter written by
Mr. Tiffany, one of tho former editors nt
the Rcpul lican at this place to his wife
here. It shows that even the soldiers
who it is admitted have but little chance
to inform themselves upon tho true state
of affairs, arc beginning to know that thev
and tho country havo beeu deceived by
the lies and misrepresentation of the abo
lition press. It shows too that tho sol
diers are not, as we are constantly told
"spoiling for a fight" We are not sui
priacd that the s'.tl experienco of the past
few weeks, in "moving upon the enemy's
works" has made the men in the army
feel that they arc doing quite too much to
gratify the blatant, loud-mouthed, stay-at
home abolition, anti peace party, who are
hissing them on to certain death ; that a
lew pampered lavorttes may furnish tucm
selvcs from tho ruins of a broken union.

A "Loyal" Rogues' Gallery A
List to bo Indefinitely Extended
Tho Roohester Union announoes a list
of Shoddyitca for tho ''Loyal" ltougue.'
Gallory na follows :
Henderson of The Post, romovsd from
office and under bonds to answor for
swindling tho Government. He is an om
inent "patriot" and Loyal Leaguer. How
often he has congratulated himself that he
was not a "traitor," liko thoso ''Copper
heads I"
Stanton late editor of the Times and
Deputy Collector in tho Now York Cu.s
torn Houso, indicted by tho United States
Grand Jury for hit agency iu the abstrae
tion of tho bonds by which tho enemy was
furnished with all manner of supplies from
abolition merchants of New York. He is
ono of the ohiefs of the Loyal Leaguers I
How eloquently ho has denouneod "Cop
perheads" for ''disloyalty" to tho Govern,
incut 1
Gen. Ward, owner of Znoh Chandler's
organ, art Tho Detroit Tribune, just com
pelted to disgorge over $20,01)0 which ho
had defrauded the Government of under a
nice little arrangement with an official of
easy virtue, liko Honderson and Stanton.
He is another Loyal Leaguer ! Ho could
scarcely brook the idea of allowing a
"Copperhead ' to live.
Captain llurtt, editor of Tho Ohio Stato
Journal, Scorotaay Chase's homo organ,
conviotcd of "scooping" the Government
in his official capacity of Quartcrmrstcr,
awaiting tho President's confirmation of
bis sentence or pardon. Ho is another
Loyal Leaguer 1 Ho couldn't stomach a
"Copporhead !"
But wo tire as wo enter, and despair of
over reaching the end of the list of stipen-
diary editors who havo, while denouncing
as' disloyal" their Democratic oontempo
raries, bced engaged in robbing the Gov
eminent of the money thoae very conlcm-
poranes, together with the rest of the pee i -
pie, have been paying into tho public,
treasury to enable the (Jovirnnient to
ii . . . o
prosecute the war. And the number of
thieving officials who have yet to bo dis
covered and exposed is legion in compari
son with those iu Fott Lafayette and hang
ing on executive clemenoy and tho favor ot
tho courts.
We endorse every word of tho follow
ing from the ''Cleveland Plaindealer :"
Idle Talk. "Wo notloo by the tele
graphic reports of tho Congressional de
bates, that Mr. Cox and other Democrat
ic Speakers, continue to refer to Constitu
tional clausos in support of thi vit- ws they
advance. This is idle. The men to whom
they aro talking, scuff at Constitutional ob
ligations. Mr. Lincoln's rahle of office
holders at Haltimoro refered to tho Iti-tnt-
ment in their platform as a mero political
artifice to give some color ofdece.cy to tWenty.four.pounder Parrot and instant
th.ir cause, but the fact u, that the party , ly killed j,e w jnterrod and iLq

equalled by tho malignant feeling they en-1 80ribed with his own name was placed over
leriuiu nir mu iiuiuuuracy. xnc "iioiten
uorougii system, ino "luiiitary rveces
sity" system. The 'King can do no wrong'
system, havo been adopted by the Lincoln
party as their creed and law. How fool
ish it is, then, to talk to suoh men of that
wise plan of Government devised by tho
statesmen and patriots of 1787. It is lit
erally ''casting pearls before swino." ,
This fact that a thing is palpably in vi
olation of tho Constitution only reoom
mends it to tho favor of Lincoln and his
supporters.
Prentice on Apostasy. Georgo D.
Prentice, of the Louisville J&wtaJ.having
been charged with apostasy by tho Chioa
go Journal, thus retorts.
Apostasy from what I What measure
or policy that we have supported since tho
coming in of this Administration do wo
now oppose ? Have we at any time sup
ported such a polioy as is enunciated in the
emancipation proclamation ? Have we at
auy timo advocated the negro. soldier bu-
Rinnca 7 TTnvn v( nt ntlv limn Rniinfn.
Apostasy from what, wo repeat. Is it
apostasy to remain firm and steadfast while
the President is undergoing all manner of
changes ? We sustained the President
when he oppotcd the measures that ho now
supports ; was it apostasy in us not to
j nP'tat'zc weD poBtatized !

Increased Expenses of tho Gov.
ernment.
Owing to tho largely increased expen
ses of tbo Government, officially announc
ed by Mr. Ok&so in his proposals for tbo
new loan, it is estimated that 8 1 ,000,000
a day will hardly he sufficient to meet tho
accumulating requisitions upon the Treas
ury. Tho total numbor of mon callod out
for tho army under the various proclama
tions up to this time is 2,130,000. Added
to this is tho navy, including 683 vends
and 43,000 seamen, The loans and lia
bilities authorized by acts of Congress,
which aro now nearly all exhausted,amount
to 82,774,812,818. During 1802 and '63
thocxponscs did not exoced $2,000,000
per day, but they havo now run up to g4,
000.000 daily, by tho increase of prices,
ag woll as of tho army and navy and in
terest on the publio debt. It is thus found
that tho receipts from rovenuo, intornal tax
and subscriptions to the ton-forty bonds
arc inadequate to tho daily requirements
of tho Treasury.
The above cheerful paragraph wo out
rom that exclusively "loyal" journal, tho
Nw York Herald and as it Is now one of
the most devoted worshippers of the war,
we presuma it spoaks by 'royal authority.'
The daily expenditures of tho government
are now, we doubt not, $5,000,000 fully,
for not only must the soldiers be fed and
clothed, bnt a myriad of big and little nig
gers. "The white trash" must foot tho
bill, and if loans givo out if even tho
stupendous liberality of Congress fails to
grasp the length and breadth of the phil

A Singular Incident.
A vory singular ocourrenco was noted
in tho Tenth Massachusetts yesterday, A
sergeant had beon engaged in tho Second
division hospital tho day previous in plac
ing upon a numbor of headboards the
names of members of his regiment who
had been killed in the late fight or had
died in battle, whioh wcro to mark their
last resting place. There was ono board
n excess, and, in a sportive vein, ho plac
ed with a lead puunil his own name upon
it, and the d.ite of his demise, 20th of
Juue, as his term of service had then ex.
pired, and he was about to leave for home.
Yesterday, while near the front bidding
his companions iu oiher rogiraents a fare
well, he Was Struck in the Iironot hrr n
' Jifj grave.
Infamous Vandalism It is anounced in
the Republican papers with glee, that
General Hunter, when at or near Char
lottesville, Virginia, burned the Virginia
Universty, tho last relio of Mr, Jefferson's
graatmind. Outof respect to that greatest
of statesmen, this old and time honored
strueturo should havo beon spared, if for
nothing elso. It is a burning disgrace to
the Administration that it should suffer
malignity toward that great and good man,
finply because he was a Domocrat and
the author of our Deolaration of Indepen
dences to thus ruthlessly destroy that an
cient edifice of learning and all that was
in it. It is an awful disgrace.
Tue Washington Constitutional Union
does not oall Andy Johnson, tbo Lincoln
nominee for Vioe-Prondent, a thief it on
ly asks :
' Did Johnson sanction afterwards the
stealing of negroes, tho burning of houses,
robbing houseB of all the silver plate, all
tho pianos I Of courso ho did. Ho now
occupies Mrs. Brown's house, q widow of
of wealth and position, What has beoome
of an immense amount of silver nlato
which was found in Mrs Brown's home.
It strikes us these aro very inopprtane
questions to put concerning a man who ex
pects to bo Vieo President. Supposo ha
should bo eltoted, and that th pooplo
got the njzly idea into their hoads that tl
Vice-President was a spoon thief. Won' '
not that be a very awkward state of thinly
