W MEXICO. eee eed INTERESTING SPEECH OF MAXIMILIAN, 4 Tene Hapsburger Never Abandons Hix People Under Adverse Cireumstances, THE FRENCH BYAQUATION PROGRESSING, AN AMERICAN PROTECTORATE WANTED, &e. &e. &e. * By the arrival of the steamship Morro Castle, Captain Adams, from Hayana on the 29th ult, we have been placéd in possession of our correspondence and files from the West Indieaand Mexico. a OUR CITY OF MEXICO CORRESPONDENCE. Orry oF Mexico, Sept. 19, 1866, THE LOI OF SEPTRMBER. The anniversary of Mexican independence, 16th of Sep- tember, was celebrated in the capital with more than usual magnifiéence. In the morning the Emperor, to- yother with the royal household, civil and military dige nitarios, foreign ministers and others, celebraied high mass at tho cathedral. Tho immense building was crowded to its wimost capacity, and the ceremonies were of the most iimposing character, After the sér- vices at the cathedral were over a grand review was had upon the Plaza de ias Armas of all the troops, native and foreign. In the afternoon the theatres were thrown open gratis to the people, and about tent thousand were ‘treated to a bull fight, ine fest which has'taken place in ‘his city for six months. In the evening the Gran Plagzn wae crowded, principally by the lower orders, to witness the display of fireworks. During the whole celebration not a single disturbance took place, and the strictest order was every- whero observed. It bad been contemplated by the Jiborals that the people of the whole Valley should 'con- cenirate here onithatday, and in a body present them- selves to the Emperorand usk him to get rid of the French as soon as possible; but the affair fell through, and the attempt was not made. This was probably owing to the action of the government, which received an inti- mation of the proposed demonstration, and fearing an emote, caused the urrest; on the Friday previous, of a targe namber of the leading liberals, This left the crowd with none to guide them, and consequently the pro- wramme was not carried out.» In the morning the Emperor received at the Palace, a large deputation of crtizens, the foreign embassies and consuls, miliary officers, Council of State, the Cabinet and city officials. Senor Lacunsa, President of the Coun- i! of State, im behalf of the deputation, made a feehng and highly patriotic address to the Emperor, to which his Majesty replied as foliows:— SPEECH OF THE EMPEROR. Mxxicaxs—Now, for the third time as chief of the na- tion, I celebrate with you with pleasure and enthusiasm our great and glorious family festival.

THE CAMPAIGN iN PENNSYLVANIA, | SPECIAL TELEG? 4 TO THE NEW YORK HERALD, Imposing Demonstration in Harrisburg in Support of the President’s Reconstruction Volicy—Speeohes of Mr. Jéhn Hogan, of Missour! and ir. Richard Vaux, of Phila- delphia, &c. Haraweurc, Oct. 3, 1866, There was another imposing, demonetration here this evening In support of President Johnson in bis recon- struction policy. ‘The principal speakers were Joho Hogan, of Missouri; Richard of Philadelphia, and Colonel Holdeman, Mr. Speech was a ‘fine effort, and was received with enthusiastic applause. Ho was particularly severe on the radicals for their abuse of the President and the conservative party, and exposed their ‘ypoorisy im dp’ able manner. It was, ho said, one of the arguments of the radi- cals that if the conservatives got into power debt. This was nice tak from a set of men who, under the previous question, repealed a law of Congress which allowed loyal slave owners in Missouri, Kentucky and, other States three hundred dollars compensation for each slave furnished to the Union army. Was not that Jaw just ag sacred as the one which created the seven- thirty toan, and was it not repudiation on the partof Co to repeal it in the manner they did? The i er then proceeded to discuss the oporations the Freedmen’s Bureau. He had investigs the matier fully and without prejudice, and he assu them that slavery in the South never was so horrible ag it has been since the Freedmen’s Bureau has been in operation, When be was in Washington Inst winter he saw a petition signed by thirty negroes, on a South Carelina p!entation, praying that the government might grant them some relief from the injustice and cruelty practised apon them by the officers of the Bureau, ‘They stated that they were competled topay three prices for everything at the Bureau store, and that the scagt allowance paid them tor their labor was not actually enough to buy them food to eat. One of the women on the plantation was unable to appear at roll call on account of sickness, and because she stayed away a single day she was placed across a barrel aud whipped insuch a barbarous manner that death subsequently ensued from the punishment. This was Northern phi; janthropy. He also cited asimflar case of bratality whick ovcurred In Mississippi. Two negroes, while on thew way with a gang to some Northern plantation, were taken sick with the small pox. The philanthropic agent Porean who, in addition to his selary, wag re. of g ten dollars a head for the gang under his chargd, cruelly placed these sick men ina skiff, and set them adrift upon the Mississippi to die. Theat was another io stance of pure benevolence and philanthropy. Mr. Hogan then passed on to the stale of things at present existing in Missouri. ie people of Pennsylvania did not know what radicali, was, If they wanted to see a little of it just let them go to Missouri for a little while, There two-thirds of the white population of the State were disframchised by a tyrannical legislature, and no one could preach, prac- tise law or hold any public office unless he topk eighty- two oaths, each one as Jong as his arm. Ministers of the gospel have been dragged from the altar ard cast into jrpeal Docause they had not taken th? oath, and sters of Mercy have been dragged from their convents and cast into dungoons Ddecause -they, too, had not subscribed: to the radical oath. In conclusion, the spealer announced that in bis solemn judgment Pennsylvania was prepared to stand by the President in the impending stragg¥.. He had boen travelling through the State-for nearly a month, making Speeches every day, and if he Toh the mind of the people aright there would be sugian uprising of the masses a8 never occurred during any other canvass, There was a huge earthquake ¢ to engulf the radi- cals for all their sit and it not ire a man of More than ordinary intellige see the explo- sion was near at hand, f Mr. Riegarp Vaux, of Philsdelphia, then’ followea with ak Apnere ag. prosytjes to the ik 9, a syocess, and assured his audience the radicals would be beaten handsomely at the polly on Tuesday next.

DEFRAUDING THE GOVERNMENT. SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE HEW YORK HERALO, A Claim Agent, of Washington, Charged With Swindliag the Gevernment—The Knights of Arabia In New Orleans, New Ortxans, Oct. 3, 1866, Ahuge swindle of the government, to the amount of aboat balf a million dollars, has been unearthed by United States detectives. The party implicated is J. Lowenthal, of No, 207 Pennsylvania avenue, Washing- ton, who is a claim agent there, and who left here yes- terday to avoid arrest, as a warrant was out for him. It is said that several paymasters who Meo the tiger” are‘partners of this swindler, 1 will send full particulars to-morrow, as affidavits have been filed setting forth the facts, Colonel McIves, whose arrest by the department com- mander has already been announced, is a high officer of the Knights of Arabia, of which Bain, arrested in New York, is grand commander. Ihave a copy of their by- laws, from which I Jearn that their odject is an armed emigration to a country not named, whose products are tobaceo, cotton, snear and coffee. I learn from reliable sources that rite Knights do not propose to violate our neutrality laws, They were to emivark thie month, but the arrest of Bain and Mclves has materially interfered with their plans. Probably the commandor of this do- partment will throw some light upon the expedition. Colonel Mclves is a gonuine Scottieh gentleman, a British subject, and her Majesty’s Consu! is working to obtain his release, as he bas committed no overt act against the laws of this government except being a Con- federate officer. New Orvxans, Oct. 8—Evoning. I have learned further particulars of Lowenthal’s frauds. It appears, as claim agent in Washington, he was in the habit of gotting from ©. Dibble, Notary Public, of this city, blank sworn affidavits setting forth that cortain discharged privates of regiments were en- titled to certain amounts of back pay and bounty. Those .blank affidavits wore familiar to Lowenthal, who filled them up by forging names of discharged soldiers, and, by endorsing them, got checks for the amount from Paymaster A. D. Robinson and ge of Washington, One of the detectives was present and saw him forge several of these documents. A warrant waa issued yes- terday, by Judge Augusting, and placed in the hands of United States Marshal Bullitt, but Lowenthal hud left for ‘Washmgton, carrying with him about twenty checks of from $100 to $300. It is asserted that a large number of Paymasters and citizens are partners of Lowenthal in the swindlcs, which amount to about $1,000,000, _ PARADE OF NEW BNOLAND VETERANS, SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.

CONVENTION OF COLORED MEN. OUR TROY CORRESPONDENCE. ‘Tror, Oct, 3, 1866. A convention of the colored citizens of this State is to bo held at Albany on the 16th of the present month, to deliberate upon the new condition of things, and to urge their rights upon those who, as the call states, “have the power to perfect and confer them in the form of perma- nent blessings.’” Tho call that has been: issued for this convention is duly authenticated by all the forms that mark similar documents from the chairmen of the sovern! partisan State committees when about to convene their repreeenta, tive adherents in or natignal convention, Mr. William ‘of this city, a3 chairman of tho State Committee, authorizes the assembling of the Gonvention in the following call, which, after setting forth the reasons for calling tho megroes together, con- eludes thus:— Wo, therefore, by anthority vested in us by William Rich, Keq., chairman of the State Central Committee, horeby recommend the people to assemble by delegates in State reghogy fy Albany, at twelve o'clock noon, on Tuesday, the 16th day of October, 1866.

Mr. Rich, who will probably be the permanent Presi- dent of the Con vention, by virtue of bis great influence and managing ability, is a native of Worcerter, Mass., where he was born in the year 1805, Colonel Rich was taken into the farnt}y of the tate Levi Lincoln, then and for many years Governor of Massachusetts, whence he removed to this city in 1826, the year in which eman- cipation took place in this State. Colone! Rich, by his honest, industriovs and praiseworthy career here, has built up a really enviable character for probity and good deeda He is the founder of the African Presbyterian church in Troy, and tho William Rich public school in this city was named in his honor. He is quite wealthy, returniny income on upwarts of $60,000. Among his people he is in every respect—intellectually, morally and socially—a foremost man. ‘The Convention will int a new State Central Com- mittee, to be “cam of atative men (colored), who shail act for the people during the ensuing year, a year likely to be a mont important one in the history ot tho colored people in this State.” In reference to the pending canvass, it is proposed to ask politicians of all parties if their yotes are at all worthy of consideration. It will also be held that colored men muet sit on juries, and heve equal mghts in the publie schools, Tt ie proy to hold a short and sharp business con- vention of two daye, the call stating that the “segro conventions generaily are too discursive. ’” prom! vey “y ‘od after rticipating ft has ised to be present, an pay ing in the proceedings will address the Convention on the political issues of the day. .

BOTH SIDES OF THE STORY, Movements of the Rival Parties in New York, > | ce. &e. &e. GEN. SANTA ANNA’S MOVEMENTS. The recent movements of Santa Anna have cauged great commotion among the sympathizers with the cause of tho Mexican republic, Yesterday bis headquar- ters was thronged with parties reprosenting all classes of interests, but the chances of obtnining further informa- tion as to the designs or doings ‘of the Gencral-in-Chicf become slimmer every day. ‘The chiefs of the Fenian organization are almost daily to be met at the headquar- ters on Staten Island. THE KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE, Yesterday Santa Anna received, among other tenders of service, the following communication :— No. 120 Macpoucan Strerr, Oot, 3, 1866, To His Excellency Dow ANzoMo SANTA ANNA:— Shi—Seeing your earnest efforts to drivo tho foreign invader from tlio soil of your native land, I respectfully beg to tender you my sword aud my hearty sympathy and co-operation in behalf of Mexican independence, As tbe President of the Knights of the Golden Circle, I think {can furnish you.many valuable and trae friends who will not desert your cauge, 1am too woll known tosay more, and leas I could not say, as T was ono of the prime movers in the establishment of the constitu. tion of 1857. fUnder which Comonfort acted as Presi- dent,—Ep.] I have the honor to be, your Excellency, GLO. BICKLEBY, of Virginia, President of the KX. @. C. and tate of the C. 8, A. COLONIZATION POLICY OP SANTA ANNA, General Sweeny called on Sait: Anna yesterday after- noon. Itappears that Santa Anna has included in. bis plans the project of settling in’Mexico a large body of Imsh and Germans, He expresses his ideas in this respect: very freely. First, their military aid and support is in- valuable; next, thoy can readily be induced, after the campaign, to settic upon the rich lands of the lierras lem- pladas sor of alexieo; and finally, be calenletes that it wit! be easicr in this way to lay the basis or a clos er connection with the English-speaking republic of the North, upon which Mexico must lean for some time to come. He considers the white popula. tion of Mexico much too small in proportion to the other races; and, after the expulsion of the invader, ‘he places colonization next upoa his programme. There 18 no doubt but that a large number of the Fenians will enter into his views on this subject. So Canada may disband her militia and rept easy. ‘This is important when viewed in presence of Napo- leon’s letter to Marshal Forey, dated at Fontainebleau, July 2, 1863, laying down the imperial poliey of check- ing the expansion of the United States in the direction of the Gulf. SENTIMENTS OF THE ORTEGA PARTY.
