No Cabinet has been appointed as yot by the President, who seemed undecided whether he should make war or peace with Congress. In Chile the alleged frauds in the election were expected to cause trouble, and perhaps prodace a good deal of opposition to the goverament.

Our Honolalu, Sandwich Isiands, correspondence is dated April 20, A singular tidal phenomenon had been witnessed in Mhul, the water rising three fect eight times, at intervals of fifteen minutes. The customs re- Ports show a fair inorease in the exports for the fret quarter of the present year. The prolonged stay of the ‘United States man-of-war Lackawanna had caused some dissatisfaction to the King’s Ministers, who were bitterly Opposed to Americans. 4 The Juarez official paper at San Luis Potosi has recently published all the official correspondence relative to the safety of Maximilian, and comments upon it in a manner that would seem to imply that the Arch- duke would receive no mercy, Juarez’ generals have strongly protested against any leniency towards him, and it is believed this publication in the official organ is with a view to a justification of the future course ef the Mexican Presidont in consenting to bis execution. A serenade was tendered to General Sturm, the Mexi- can Agent at New York, at his residence on Staten Island, on Saturday evening, in recognition of his great services to the liberal government, by a fow of his friends. In a few remarks during the evening the Gon- @ral said that Juarez could not eave Maximilian if he would, as the people demanded retaliation for the horri- ble cruelties inflicted in consequence of the barbarous {mperial decree issued about two years ago. He sald that Mr. Seward had shown himself systematically opposed to the liberais bocauso a noar relation of his was con- nected with an imperial express company. The President arrived with his party at Richmond yes. torday on his way to Raleigh. He was received by the Mayor and a few prominent citizens, and given a cordial welcome. He went to the Spottswood House, where he was giyon the auite of rooms heretofore occupiod by Jeff Davis, Tho party attended St. Paul’s chnrch during the day, and took dinner with the municipal authorities atthe hotel in the afternoon. Several small parties greeted the President at the various stations beforo reaching Richmond, but he declined making a speech, further than to return his thanks for the welcome, Tho arrests mado by the police yesterday under the Provisions of the Excise law in this city were eighty- five and Brooklyn five, Of those in this city twenty. three wore for intoxication, ten for disorderly conduct, thirty-oight for being drunk and disorderly and fourteen for selling liquor.

A mass mooting of republicans was held at Leesburg, Va,on Friday, when Gonoral Farnsworth, of Illinois, and J, M, Langston, the colored lawyer of the Suprome Court, were the principal speakers. The latter made a powerful impression upon bis colored audience, he hav- ing been formerly a slave in Virginia. The usual good order prevailed. At Hamilton yesterday a similar meot- ing was hold, where the same speakers officiated. The post commander at Columbus, Miss., has ordered all vagrant negroes to leave the town, Governor Perry bas written another letter, in which he says that confiscation is preferable to negro rulo, General Pope has been. petitioned by five hundred Begroes to remove the Mayor and City Council of Savan- nab, oo the ground that colored men cannot obtain Justice from them, A large fire provaiied in Petroleum Centre yesterday, ‘and thirty-five or forty houses were destroyed. ‘Tue Massachusetts Legislature bas adjourned. The Dominion of Canada. friends over the border are just now, having season of great joy. In the now form of goverament—a consolidated power—they imagine they see the beginning of a new ora in their history that is destined to develop the country, mobilize its power, enrich the peoplo, and make the new dominion a second edition of Paradise. Of course we can have no objec- tion fo the Canadian people looking on the bright side of the picture; but we fear that the confederation scheme has turned the heads of their ablest statesmen, and that the reaction, when it comes, will result very dis- astrously for the stability of the Dominion. For a few yeara the new scheme may work very satisfactorily, but in the end it will accomplish just what its promoters seek to avoid, the absorption of the Canadas by the United States, No one will attempt to deny that Canada in the past half cen- tury has made remarkable progress—second only, perhaps, to this oountry—or that they have within their border some of the ablest statesmen this hemisphere has pro- duced. The people are industrious and happy, but lack the “push” that is characteristic of the Yankee and has made the United States what it is to-day—a Power before which Euro- pean governments bow with respect, and the Chinese and Japanese kneel in reverence. Still much of our success Is owlng to the liberality with which we treat the emigrants arriving upon our. shores, and the entire ab- sence on our part of that spirit that says to the toiler in the mine and the workshop, “I am nobler than thou.” Here labor is honorable. In Canada they still cling to the old and absurd ideas of caste. The aristocracy, that has sprung from questionable origin, is the curse of the country, and this scheme of confederation is merely a cover to introduce into the new Do- minion all the absurd customs of the aris tooracy of the Old World. The rebellion of 1837-8, under Mackenzie and Papineau, was brought about by the oppressions of the citizen and agricul- turist, who could not trace their lineage to gentle blood, by those who claimed superior stataa in society. The offices in the gift of the government were be- stowed upon brainless scions of English fami- lies, who were supported in their licentiousness by the money gathered from the poor tax- payer. Lord Durham, however, straighteued things out, and Canada became under the union virtually @ selfgoverned country, and since then the provinces have made happy progress. Much of this success, however, is due to the American spirit that has been infused into her population from this side of the St Lawrence. At the present time perhaps one- third of her population are at heart annex: ationists, who will nover be satisfled while the country Is @ dependency of Great Britale NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, JUNE 3, 1867. The idea of @ nationality under the protecting arm of the mother country, it is true, will do much to unite the people for a few yoars; but @ reaction must come when the pockets of ‘he peeple are drained to sustain a gtanding army now supported by the home government. Then will be seen the beginning of the end. Tho French population has never had any love for English institutions, and do not forget what their forefathers suffered in the past. They may for a time yicld a tacit submission to the new order of things; but the influence of this element in tho‘provinces, added to that of the American residents, will bring forth fruit and culminate in another rebellion, or a popular movement in favor of annexation or independ- ence #0 sweeping in its character that its success will be beyond the peradventure of a doubt. After all, perhaps it is just as well that this oconfederative scheme, which sounds 60 large, should be fully tested and permitted to develop itself. Of the results the most ardent ennexationist can have no fear. A twenty years’ trial of it will dispel the beautiful pic- ture upon which the people have set their affections. In the meantime, the population will have become more Americanized and ripe for a radical change of government. There is one point, however, in which, it ap- peare to us, the provinoials are peculiarly shortsighted. Time and again the English press and politicians, speaking for the govern- ment, have declared that the mother country considers her North American colonies expen- sive elephants, of which she would gladly be relieved, and permit the people to choose their own system of government and rulers. Why this offer has not been accepted we are at a loss to conceive. Independence, surely, is far superior to confederation. Let us look at the question for a moment. Were the pro- vinces an independent consolidated Power they would command alike the protection of England and the United States. The necessity of expending annually eight or ten million dollars for defences, as will now be the case, would be removed, and Fenian raids and terror of war between England and the United States would cease. But there are still larger benefits to be derived. The provinces are rich in gold, coal, silver and other mineral |- resources and lumber. What they most require is capital to develop their vast treasures. The cautious European capitalist is too careful of his funds to invest in a colony ‘many hundred miles from the mother country, whioh, in the event of an interruption of friendly relations between the United States and England, would become the battle ground. For the same reason the American capitalist will not assist in developing the resources of these provinces. Were the colonies an independent Power these objections could no longer be urged. They would be neutral territory, and the only force required would be a emai constabulary to protect the people and enforce the laws. Capital would flow in from Europe and the United States; the splendid water power would no longer remain unemployed ; the dilapidated hamlets, consisting of a tavern, post office and store, would grow into prosper- ous towns; and in exchange for an intorost in the fisheries we might be induced to negotiate a new Reciprocity treaty, giving them free trade and sweeping all the custom houses, with their corruptand tat officials, from the bor- der. With all these advantages the provinces would no longer be convulsed by internal dis- sonsions snd annexationists would be unknown; for they would be, for all practical purposes of trade, a part and parcel of the United States, with this difference, that io half a contury they would have reached the goal @ nationality of their own, with all the advan- tages of self-government, but not inimical to that of the United States. Let the advocates of a new Dominion, with a Prince to reign over them, read, reflect and things. of their ambition, inwardly digest these United States Naval Academy. In Thursday's Henatn we published a letter from the pen of our special correspondent at Annapolis, in which was given an encouraging as well as interesting description of our Nayal Academy. What West Point bas been and atill is to the military branch of our servics it is the object of the Naval Academy to become to the naval branch. It is impozsible, therefore, for the people of the United States to be indifferent to its success. Now that we have leaped into the position of a first class Power, our army and navy officers must be able to meet oa equal terms with the army and navy officers of any other country. They must be equally brave, equally well bred, and—what perhaps is of still greater importance to insist upon, # the qualifications mentioned are loess likely be wanting—equally well educated. pelled to determine the relative importance «f the two academies, West Point or Annapolis which, happily, is unnecessary, we should cer If con- tainly decide in favor of the latter. In th natural development of our resources as a grea nation we are more likely to come into collision with foreign Powers on sea than on land. Th tendency of present events, considered in cov nection with our peculiar geographical poa- tion, having Europe on the one hand and Ash on the other, more than indicates that we an yet to become the groat naval Power of th world. What England has been on a grant, doubtless, but still on a smaller scale, we ap destined to become in that magnificent futup which is opening up for the industry and ente- prise of the nations. [t is absolutely necessar, therefore, that everything be done that can by to render the riaval arm of our serviceas perfect as possible, There is little likelihood of there being ity lack of candidates for admission into the Navi Academy, and it is cheering to know tht under the fostering care of the saperintendes, Vice Admiral Porter, and the other membes of the Academic Board, all of whom ¢¢ evidentiy enthusiastic in their respective o- partments, the Academy Is ia 9 satisfactoy and highly hopeful condition. It seems too the object of those now in authority to make te system of instruction broad, general ad useful, rather than special and exhaustive. o this we think they are right. We believe itis intended henceforward that those in charge a voagel shall be first class engineers aa wil as first cluas sailors. This also is a step imie right direction. We have been glad to lem, too, that the young men were most of thm gradaates of the best scleatific schools imie country before they ontered the Acadey. All these are encouraging and hopefal sips, and enable ts to form an opinion of the hd of men who are (o be the Parcaguts of be futgre, Tho Czar in Paris-Napoloon’s Royal Cou- gregation. A special cable telegram from Paris informs us of the arrival of the Czar Alexander the Second of Russia, accompanied by his two sons, in the French capital, and details the brilliant reception accorded to him by his imperial brother, Napoleon. The ruler of all the Russias will be followed immediately by King William of Prussia, the King of Italy and the Viceroy of Egypt, the Emperor of Austria and other potentates arriving at a date a little later. Napoleon’s long sought for and ardently desired congregation of sovereigns will then be complete, and the Parisians will gain immensely in thelr cash receipts, while the prestige of the Bonapartes will be in a great measure restored by the skilful diplomacy of the Emperor and the popular comparison which will be made between the situation of the empire in 1867 and that existing in 1815. Prince Gortechakoff, the Nestor of Russian statesmanship, will attend the Czar, and Count ‘Von Bismarck accompany the King of Prussia. It is eaid that the Czar will extend his visit to London. By the mails of May 23 we learn that the French squadron in the Mediterranean was ordered to Malta, to await the arrival of tho Sultan of Turkey and two princes of his family, and convey the imperial party to Toulon, where they were to be received by the French Minister of Marine, on their way to Paris. The most important and momontous moa- sures of State are likely to ensue from this Con- gress. It is indicated, indeed, already that the Eastern question will be arranged “under- standingly,” and it may be that Napoleon will quietly effect a “reconstruction” of the crowns and thrones in accordance with the popular will, and thus renew the lease of power of his neighbors, he himself being admitted to the reunited family as a dynastic member, anointed and entitled to rule by divine right, The moment is apparently favorable, for it will be observed that from Russia, Turkey, Italy, Sweden and England, juvenile princes have come, or are journeying, to tho Tuileries, where each and all of them will be duly intro- duced to the Prince Imperial of France. Honor to the Dead. The interesting article which we published yesterday on the cemeteries of the metropolis shows to what an extent our people carry their reverence for the dead. In all ages and among all nations the feeling has prevailed more or less, but at no period and no where has it been carried to the sentimental extremes observable here. Everything that affection and family pride can suggest or that taste and wealth can procure is, so far as is consistent with the object, lavished on the tombs of those dear to us. The result is not always happy, but in the grandeur and beauty of the general design of which these monuments form part its imperfections aro lost sight of. Although landscape gardening in this con- nection cannot be said to have originated here, to us belongs the credit of giving it the fullest extension of which it was capable. It is not many years since in England—the school of the art—the public burying grounds began to receive attention from the gardener. With the exception of Kensall Green we do not know ® cemetery in or about London which is at all developed in this way. There are a few in the English provinces on which a good deal of care is bestowed, but they are on a emall scale and ground to certain fixed geometrical principles, beyond which the mind of the horticulturist never wandered. Thus it remained until the place was choked up with tombs and it became impossible to alter the arrangement. The celebrated San Miniato Cemetery at Florence, though almost equally commanding in point of situation, has no pretensions to horticultural beauty. The graves lie benoath a flat marble pavement, on which the visitor walks, and, with the exception of the view of the city, which is very fine, there is but little worth see- ing. Thore is not, in fact, in Great Britain or on the continent of Europe a single cemetery which compares in natural and acquired at- tractions with those of our lending cities. Greenwood, Mount Auburn and Laurel Hill are unquestionably the finest burying places in the world. All that mature and art can combine to produce agreeable and soothing impressions are to be found united there. It has been said of us aaa people that we place but smail value on life. If we were to be judged by the care bestowed on these “yardons of the dead,” it would certainly seem that we look to our occupation of them rather with feelings of pleasure than apprehension. British Reform—Another Liberal Triumph. A cable despatch dated London, May 31, midnight, and printed in Saturday’s Herato, announced another division in the House of Commons on the Reform bill. The division took place on the question of the distribution of seats. To the government proposal the oppo- sition moved an amendment to the effect that no borough having a population of less than ten thousand should be entitled to a seat in the House of Commons. The liberals carried their amendment by a majority of one hundred and twenty-seven. As a preliminary step to the whole question of distribution this is an im- portant liberal gain. It will make wholesale destruction of all the wretched little pocket boroughs which have snrvived since 1832. The seats thus acquired will be distributed over the large centres of population where liberal principles are in the ascendant. Al- though apparently pointing in an opposite direc- tion, {t encourages the belief to which we have already given expression, that a reform bill will be carried this session of Parliament, and will be carried by the tories. The liberals aro strong enough when they choose to unite to carry their point; but they refuse to unite to drive the government from their seats, and for the obvious reason that they are convinced that a safe and satisfactory measure of reform will be obtained at their hands. As govern- meat have yielded in regard to the lodgor franchise, in regard to the term of reaidence, and In regard to the compound householder, go will they ylold in this mattor ; and by com- promise or gthorwise the distribution difjoul- tt res ee ties will be got over, m°d the bill in @ hopeful | assessment on the mombers of Congress, Thi condition be carried up to the Lords.
