Finally, in despair, the father presented himself before the Emperor with the request that his daughter should be brought to Mexico, and the proper parties be held to answer for the ill treatment to which she had been sub- jected. But his Majesty was too much occupied with affairs of State, or with amusing himself, and referred the matter to one of his ministers, who entrusted it to a deputy, who was in league with the poor man’s ene- mies, leaving his chance of redress from an imperial source small indeed, By the arrival of our despatches from Vem Cruz, Gated October 23, we are in receipt of later Mexican news of interest, which we publish below. General Aguirre, military commander of the State of Coahuila for the republic of Mexico, has arrived in his cuy. He states that General Escobedo was at Cuatro-Cienogas, in Coahuila, about six hundred miles awvest of Matamoros, on the 20th and 25th of September ast, with his forces scattered all over that State and New @.con, acting entirely on the defensive, and only harass- ng the French by bushwhacking. General Aguirre also states that Canales, Cerda, Leon ‘and others were more than one hundred miles from Mat- inoros, and were waiting the return of General Carvajal ‘with the means and elements of war. He asserts that flo reported defeat of the liberals at Matamoros, if true, gust be of the bandit Cortina, who has no flag. He says iat the whole mass of the Mexican population will rise pul exterminate the French as soon as they can get arms nd ammunition, and that President Juarez is in no anger. Don Augustin Viesca is Governor of Coahuila, and is in ossession of the whole State, except Saltillo, and Esco- edo is Governor of New Leon.

The estimate of the expenses of the empire for the coming fiscal year is to be issued to-day. The military branch will require eighteen millions of dollars and the civil departments thirty-nine millions, without reckoning the interest on the national debt. The revenue scheme presented by the Council of State, and to which so much time has been devoted, consists in doubling all the in- ternal imports and customs duties upon foreign articles. The Emperor will leave in the first part of next month for Yucatan, with his wife, who, it is said, is about to visit Belgium. Don Fernando Ramires, the Minister of State and Foreign Affairs, has resigned, and will be succeeded by Don Martin Castillo y Car. During the absence of Maximilian the government will be administered by Marshal Bazaine. Mafelia has been vigarously attacked by the liberals commanded by Arteaga and Regules, who have taken a considerable number of Belgians prisoners. The State of Vera Cruz is in a state of complete revolution, the colonists settied there being obliged to abandon their property. ‘The liberals have taken Huatusco by a daring attack, routing the Austrians who attempted to defend the place. The imperialists are very much alarmed in conse- quence, and are hurriedly fortifying the cities of Orisala a eta in order to impede the rapid progress of the Juariste, Ugalde and Fragaro, with a force of five hundred cavalry, have overrun a large portion of the States of Mexico, Morelia and Queretaro without meeting oppo- sition, owing to the rapidity of their movements. At Halpam, nine miles distant from this city, a com- plete panic prevails. The political prefect of that dis- trict had the recorder of the local municipal ved shot upon mere suspicion. Lodgers are not all to be received in any house without the previous permission of the authorities, and persgns seeking work in factories aro equired to prove a yord political character. This aystem of inquisition and terrorism is being followed in other a ie with results quite opposite to those anticipated yy its projectors, as the Juarist forces are daily in- creasing. j In the meantime Maximilian is wasting the nation’s money. In addition to the salary of ten thousand dollars allowed him the imperial household costs two thousand dollars for servants alone. A concert given at the palace a few days since cost forty thousand dollars, and seventy thousand dollars are about to be expended upon the con- struction of a theatre in the palace for the especial recre- ation of their Majesties. Should the railroads, commerce and business generally become entirely paralyzed, and the projected fiscal mea- sures fail, a terrible blow will be dealt to new enterprises here for some time tocome, An imperial decree of the 10th of April, 1865, declares the following ports to be open to foreign and coasting IN THE GULF OF MEXICO.

The Central Financial agency for the sale of Mexican ‘bonds was formally opened yesterday afternoon, in the presence of a number of distinguished citizens. The agency is loonted at No, 67 Broadway, in the office of Jobn W.

The prompt arrival of the firemen soon checked the flames and prevented the spread of the fire beyond the third floor, on which it commenced. Fire Commissioner Brown, who was in the vicinity when the fire broke out, was very energetic. He assisted in getting No. 10 hose up to the second floor, and putin the first water. The working of the new department was fully demon- strated at the fire, All the volunteer members havii been discharged, the new force had a clear field an worked to advantage; and the police of the First preeinct also had comparatively little diMeulty in eeping the streets free from a useless crowd. When the telegraph is in operation and the bells are not allowed to ring, fires will be put out in Now York with as little noise as in other large cities. Commissioners Pinckney and Abby were also at the fire soon after it broke out. The loss sustained by Bininger & Co. will not probably exceed $1,500. They are insured for $80,900, as follows:—Globe, $1,500; Na- tional, $4,500; Montauk, $6,000; Home, $4,000; Mer- chants’, $3,900; Equitable, $5,060; Standard, $3,600; Continental, $1,500, and Lafayette, $2,000. ‘The’ first floor is occupied’ by’ Read & Roundy, provision dealers.

The scenery was remarkably good, and the costuming of Mile. Leoni equally so, The Montpellier Opera Houre: in dimensions is:fully as large as any of the Broadway or Bowery theatres, and exceeds many of them in propor- taons. The melange of minstrelay which precedes the dramatic performance has much merit, The clog. danc- ing of Messrs, Childs and Carroll, the trapeze and. other acrobatic performances of Master Kincade are excellent, and the ballet, which forms a principal part in the pro- gramme, is quite attractive. It is in the powor of the management to render this-house one of the most availa- ble'in the East End for dramatic representations, aud it is to be hoped that tho opportunity will not be- missed.

Peto, from being an unknown, has become of late a very popular name in America.

In the opening address Mr. Walter Montgomery said: —“Recognized as our profewsion ig by the highest in the land, we have little to fear from the clouded intellects and narrow prejudices of a limited few; but even they shail be convinced (if they will come among us) that there is nothing inconsistent in the following our pro- fexsion and wearing ‘the like yoke of that Lord of love who stilled the rolling wave of Galilee.’"’ An Indepen- dent minister denounced the last sentence as ‘“blasphe- mous” from his pulpit. To this Mr. Montgomery re plied:—‘I could not believe that any man could be found in the present century who would deliberately inflame a congregation with the most vindictive passions, turning the holy house of prayer intoa bear garden resounding with responsive howls at every fresh denunciation. A heavy responsibility rests upon such preaching. Tt would ‘not have surprised me to have seen my theatre in flames at the hands of some excited fanatic an hour after that flery attack.’ A lawsuit is threatened.

The festival of All Souls Day, which is one of the freatest in the Catholic calendar, was celebrated yester- day in all the charches of that denomination in this city, as well as in ail parts of the civilized world. This feati- val is very solemn and impressive, and is celebrated in memory of the departed. In the Cathedral, and ia all the churches fn the city, high masses of requiem were sung for the repose of the faithful departed, and the solemn ceremony of the absolution of the dead was per- formed at the conclusion. This day is usually a sad one, for It recalls to their remembrance the scenes of death which have desolated their housebold during Shel pase of the ‘ear and those which preceded jt. The met dead ia thus rendered obli ry, and the ‘tap.ot ibe de. mise of all the members of the Catholic faith in every jbmerged By ee that the united prayers age are sul ofthe church 4 thelr behalf. ‘The origin of this festival is referred to Odilon, Abbot bf Cluny, in the ninti: , who first enjoined the ceremony of praying for the dead on this day in his own monastery, and the practice waa partially adopted by other religious houses until the year 993. when establinhed as.a goveral festival. To mark the, pre-emi- nent importance of this festival, if it happened on a Sun- day it was not pe es to the Monday, as was the caso with other suct nities, but kept on Saturday, in order that the church might the sooner aid the souls of the dey ; and that the dead might have every benefit from the exertions of the living, the remembrance of this ordinance was kept up by persons dressed in biack, who went round the different towns ringing « loud and dismal bel! at the corner of each street every Sunday evening during the mnonth, and calling upon the inhabi- ‘ta to remember the deceased vaffering the expiatory, and to join in prayer for the of their souls. Thir custom wae general in England until the Reformation, when Queen Elizabeth pagsed an edict strictly wats | | “the superstitious ringing of bells at Hallowtide Souls Day, with the two nights before and next . The of praying for the dead is of . very ancient date. Ovid, in the second book of his Fasti, ascribes the | origin of the ceremony to Bneas, whom he states to have offered gifts to the manes of his father, and Virgil favors the idea in his fifth book. ‘On some parts of the continent of Europe, where faith in such legends is more implicit, the following record of ‘the origin of this festival is readily acceded to — “The memory of all departed Christian souls is estab- Iished to be solemnized in the church on this day, that they may have general aid and comfort, whereas they have none special. And Peter Damyens saith that in Teoyll, in the Isle of Wulcan, St. Odylle heard the voices and the howlings of devils, which complained strongly because that the souls of’ those which were dead were taken away from their hands by alms and prayers, And therefore he ordained that the feast and remembrance of them that have departed out of this world should be made and holden in all monasteries the day after the aa of All Hallow; the which thing was approved by the church,”’ In various parts of England the remembrance of mo- ‘Dastic customs is still preserved by giving soul mass or oaten cakes to the poor neighbors, conformably to what ‘was once the gencral usage, porticulerly. in Lancashire and Yorkabire, when, by wi expressing gratitude, the receivers of this liberal offerod the followin, homely benediction:—‘“God have your saul, bones and all,’’ bearing more the appearance, in these enlightened days, of rustic scoff than of thankTulness.
