Arrival of Alexander the Second of Russia and His Two 6 im the French Capital— Brilliant Redeption by Napoleon and Great Enthusiasm of ¢ Parisians—The Tail \wles Decorated with the United Fings of the Empires—Other Severeigns Expected Imme- diately, and the ** Occupation of 1867” Al- ‘moat Vomplete, &c. Panis, June 1, 1867. The Emperor Alexander thé Second, Czar of Baussia, accompanied by two of his sons, grand Wukes, arrived in thig city at four o'clock in the af- ternoon to-day, as the guests of the Emperor and Empress of France. Nepoleon the Third, attended by his staff and ‘accompanied by all the marshals of the empire now in the capital, and the whole of the Cabinet Ministers and great officers of state, set out from the Tuileries some short time previously and pro- ceeded to the railroad station, where he received his imperial brother with great cordiality. The popular display was exceedingly brilliant et the railroad station and in all the streets through which the royal cortége passed on its re- turn to the palace. Paris was, in fact, joyously excited, and the vast crowds assembled at all points received the illustrious visitor with eathusiasm. | The Palace of the Tuileries ia decorated with the combined flags of the two great empires, Rus- sia ond France, and pleasing congratulations wore being interchanged among the Parisians at -the latest moment. The Cesar Alexander comes from Berlin direct, where he was entertained by King William of ‘Prussia, and accorded interviews to Count Bismarck. He had visited Copenhagen pre- -viously. Ibis said that the Russian royal party will ex- ‘tend its visit to London. The Emperor of Russia will be attended during this stay in Paris by Prince Gortschakoff, his Minister of Foreiga Affairs. The Czar's eldest sister, the Grand Duchess Maria of Russia, wife of Maximilian Joseph Napoleon, Duke of Leuchtenberg and Prince of Bichstaedt, has been in Paris since the 19th of May, acoompanied by her son, the present Duke of Leachtonberg, 80 that the imperialism of Russia &s woll as its diplomacy will be fully and daly represented during the visit of the Emperor. King William of Prussia and Count Bismarck are looked for immediately. King Victor Emanuel of Italy and the Viceroy of Egypt will, it is said, reach Paris within @hree days from the present date, so that Napo- Aeon's congrogation of sovercigns—or the ‘‘modern wcenpation,”’ as it is named by some—will be com- plete. Comparisons are frecly drawn on all sides, Gue distinctions being made between the ‘situation’ in France in the two remarkable ‘epochs, 1816 and 1867. Napoleon's prestige is renewed to agreat extent by the contr: France is very poworful and Paris makes money; 60 that ‘tho empire enjoys great strength with much profit, whereas the city had only the money receipt in 1815, when Wellington, Biucher, Schwarzenberg, Barclay de Tolly, Metternich and Pozzo di Borgo, “Alexander of Russia, Frederick William of Prussia, Francis of Austria and almost a million of “gtrangers * swooped down on it after Waterloo. THE FRENCH TURF. SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE HERALD. Mace for the Grand Prix de Pa -The Czar of Russia dred Thousand Pe the Ground—Exciting Contest, and Fer- vacques the Winner—Th dis of Ladies, “Out’-The Fashions on the Road, &e, Parts, June 2, 1867. The Grand Prix de Paris of one hundred thou- aod franca, with the Emperor's Cup--the two moat cagerly sought for results of the French turf ontesta—were run for to-day in the Bois de Bo- logue and won by the horse Fervaques. \ There were at least one hundred thousand per- eons, hailing from eve tion on earth, present ‘on the occasion. The day was very warm, but the atmosphere ‘was made pleasant by a fow timely and refreshing jhowers of rain. . Fervacques and Patricien, the winners of tho Freak Derby, made & dead heat at one time, but the next heat, which decided the race, was won by Fervacques easily. The Emperor Napoleon, the Czar Alexander of Russia, the Grand Duchess Maria of Russia, the King and Queen of the Belgians, the Princess Murat and other royal personages were present on the Emperor's stand. Napoleon and the Czar walked through the crowd to see the horses. On driving home to the city after the race the two Emperors were faintly cheered. There was much exeitement during the races. The betting was very hoavy—unusually go for France. Vaubon, Markeman and other English horses were withdrawn. The race really makes the Frenoh Derby, for the Chantilly races bear no comparison to it. The scene to-dey was like what might be imagined if there was a race course in the Cen- tral Park, New. York. There were thousands of ladies “ out,’ dreased in all the prevailing styles of spring costame, and T may add that blue was the prevailing color. THE PRESS DESPATCHES. THE EASTERN QUESTION.

For that question, indeed, there was supposed to be no fleld or scope in a country where all men were equal not only in legal righta but political power, where land was cheap and easily pro- curable, aod where the population was stil! far below the natural capacities of the territory and the de. mands of che soil, Yet the relations between masters and men are more seriously disturbed in the United ‘States at the present moment than in this kingdom, and the disputes are conducted with far greater violence.

Bad News at the Tuileries at an Unfortunate Moment. (Paris (May 20) correspondence of the Pall Mall Gazette] ‘There is a story here to the effect that a very awkward | piece of news was made known at the Tuileries last night that the Emperor Maximilian had been captured and shot.

All the oficial correspondence relating to the safety of ‘Maximilian, and the debates in the United States Senate, re published in the official paper at San Luis Potosi. In commenting upon this correspondence this paper eays:—‘It will be seen therein that, showing due con- sideration to the government of the United States, the government of the republic of Mexico has felt ita duty to reserve to itself the liberty of proceeding in such ‘manner as might be just in any eventuality, and acoord- ing to the ciroumstances of the case, towards those who Cannot be considered simple prisoners of war, but cul- prita, and responsible to the laws of nations and of the republic,” This correspondence has been published all over Mex- feo, and the liberal press, in commenting thereon, ex- press the opision that Maximilian should be shot, Juares’ generals protested against the release of Maximilian, and it is expected that Juarez could not withstand the pressure thus brought to bear against the ‘unfortunate prince, aad that he probably published the correspoadence in order to justify his future course, ‘Phe Agent ef the Moxican Geveramont at New York—The Liberal Successes and the Fate of Maximilian.

Ho concluded by again warmly thanking the party for the honor they had conferred upon him.
