New Oxzxans, June 13, 1867, The following despatch has reached this city from one of the correspondents of the Heraup in Mexico:— San Lor Poros, May 28, 1867. To-morrow Maximilian and his principal generals— Miramon, Mejia and Castillo—may very possibly be sen- tenced to be shot. On Tuesday, the ist, the Emperor and Prince Salm-Salm bad an interview with Es- eobedo at his headquarters at Querétaro. The meeting was brought about by the Princess Salm-Salm, who had just returned from her mission to the President at San Luis. It was characterized by an incident which, were I able to relate it, would cause a thrill of disgust in every civilized community im the world, but at present my lips are sealed for weighty reasons. Maximilian offered to abdicate and to use his intiuence to bring about the immediate surrender of Mexico and Vera Cruz, the former to be accomplished in a most remarkable manner. Tn return he asked the lives and a safe conduct out of the country for himself, bis German officers and troops. and Generals Mejia and Castillo—Miremon. for reasons whidh wilt hereafter be apparent, was loft out—and for his Mexican private secretary. A special messenger was despatched to the President ‘with these conditions. He returned to Quordtaro on the 25th inst, with an unqualified rejection of the proposals. ‘The same day the Emperor, Miramon and Mojia, were placed in separate cells, under double guard, and a court martial was organized to try them. Since the days of the Spanish inquisition no such tribunal has ever been framed. Who the President is no one knows. Where the court sits and who are the witnessos is equally matter buried 1m the darkest obscurity. The Judge Advocate has fourtoon points of accusation, With these he passes from one to the other of the prisoners, and asks them on each point what they havo to say in reply. In vain the Emperor requested time to consult bis counsel, naming as auch the liberal General Rivas, Pallacio and Senor Martinez de Ia Lore, of Mexico city. In vain he protested against the legality of the court. ‘These proceedings have been going on for three days, and to-morrow the sentence is expected to be given. If that sentence is passed it will undoubtedly be death, and the fate of the Emperor will be sbared by his chief officers. ‘The Princess Salm-Saim arrived in San Luis to-day by special express. The President had promised bor that if her husband and the Emperor were sentenced to be shot she should have another interview with him. This courageous lady is the bearer of a private letter from the ex-Emperor to the President. She bas been refused admittance to-doy, but is promised an interview to morrow. But a sudden case of perplexity has arisen to-night, and affords almost the only faint hope of the Emperor's life being spared, Notice has been served upon the Prezident. tbat Maxtmilian denies the jurisdiction of the court, on grounds of iaternatioual law.

Wheaton obtained, the Ministry have been in deliberation the whole night, and the council has not even now (midoight) broken up. What the result wil! be no one ventures to predict. President Juarez is unquestionably inadilomma. The newspapers and all the violent liberals are clamoring loudiy for Maximilian’s blood All the crimes and ont- rages of the Freach troops in this vicinity—and they are legion—are charged upon his head. On the other hand, if the President orders Maximilian’s execution, he has been warned that he would lose the sympathy of tho United States. Personally Juares would like to conciliate the United States; but the anti- American feeling bas grown so strong here, especially since the unexpected fall of Querétaro, that it is quite possible Maximilian may be shot out of mere bravado to- wards the United States, SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE HERALO.

Anmwal Rozgatta of the New York Yacht Club. 4 Fine Display of Sailing Craft and a Tame Raco. The Schooner Phantom and Sloop Evelyn the Winners of the Stakes. Tho yachting season was formally opened yesterday in the annual regatta of the Now York Yacht Club, This regatta has been for some time past a feature of the summer amusements of tho public, and has formed a very favorable occasion for the display of tho finely modolied craft im holiday attire and neat rig, without rendering them liable to rude or damaging buffets which might soil their pretty featbers or tarnish the shining coats of their hulls. This occasion has always been to the yacht club what tho dross parade is to soldiers. Thore are always rogular manoouvres on a smooth field, @ grand and efective marshalling of forces, but not the least danger. This forms ® scene, moreover, which may be fitly and safoly adorned by the presence of Jadies—a sort of holiday show, in which the spirited craft wheel and curvet about the course im the sight of edmiring spectators, flaunting their gaudy colors and gay signals, to lend additional picturesquoness to the pleasant scene. The regatta, then, as an annual parade of the forces of the Yacht Club, and a preparation for tho earnest work of the season, is peculiarly interesting, even beyond the fact that it is recognized already as a jiday for pleasing frivolity, brilliant show and general enjoyment. Yesterday having been set apart for this display of our fast sailing craft, it might of course be expected that we have to record this morning, as usual, agrand affair in tho way of a yacht parade, Tho re- gatta held yesterday was, however, unusually note- worthy for the display made by the club and by those who assembied to do iwhonor, THe DAY was @ vory pleasant one for amusement and show. Thore was an almost cloudloss sky, @ clear atmosphere, and a bright sun, shining with only sufficient intensity to temper agreeably tho chill breezes that ever sweep across the cold bosom of the waters. Tho wind, though pleasant to the pleasure-seeker or excursionist, was not pecatiarly calculated to fill the soul of an enthusiastic yachtman with delight, It was by no means sufficiently heavy for the purpose of affording the amusement of a lively race. It came in fitful puffs, and weak gusts, now rising and twirling the gay streamors of the sharp-prowed craft in all manner of shapes, again breathing softly and woakly against the impatientiy fluttering sails, and finally dying away altogether, until there remained so doad a calm that it seemed to the impatient ones « per- fect atmospheric vacuum in which breathing even was « difficulty. Such a day was of course favorable to a holi- day parade, but it was nevertheless annoying to those who preferred to show the sailing qualities of their yachts in dashing mancuvres, instead of allowing the galiaot craft to float lazily on the stream, bound up in a calm and the sport of tide. if THR BXCURSIONISTS, If any proof were needed that yachting bas grown greatly in popularity with the people, however, it might be readily adduced from the attendance at this regatta. Long before the day of the display a dozen or more ex- cursion boats ‘were advertised to take such as might wish to witness the yacht club show to the sailing grounds and over the course marked out for the racers. ‘The result proved that the provision of such accommo- dations was a wise business forethought on the part of the owners of the boats, for they were crowded with cager sight seers. At an early hour yesterday morning crowds of ladies and gen- tlemen assembied on the wharves at different points along the North and East rivers, where the boats made their landings, and by half-past ten o'clock A. M. all had been taken off, and the gaily-decked vessels wore steaming rapidity down the bay towards that interesting point where, clutched in the embrace ef the high lands of Staten Island and the curving shores of Long Island, the thick claster of white sails lay. The majority of these excufsion steamers were sidewbeel tugs of tho better class, fitted ap for the accommodation of those wishing to participate in the excitement of the race; but there was one large river steamer, whose decks were crowded with ladies, which made ‘an especially brilliant show. Ladies, however, were found on the decks of even the smallest craft that paraded, and the flutter of ribbons and fantastically formed skirts on board of a small ocean propeller and on the numerous pleasure boats that fitted across the sparkling waters, gave tone to the sport of the day, The company gathered on board these excursion boa was worthy of the sport the had assembled to hovor, Yach*ing has few rowdy admirers, and cousequently the visitors to the scene of yesterday's amusement were of the highly respectable quality. THE SCENE AT THE NARROWA Arrived off the anchorage ground of the yachts entered for tho race, a scene of novel and striking beauty meets the eye of the excursionist, White-winged clippers are on all sides of him. There they lie in a thick cluster, lazily heaving on the oath rolling flood; there they sweep to and fro among the resting craft, like shuttios, Weaving this fair fabric of white canvas and finely moulded bulla, Steamers, cranky with the crowding to their sides of masses of spectators, lie motionless at the outer circle of the gay salling craft, and Jilliputian veasets, steam yachts, dwarfed steamers, with paddie wheels or screw, perfect counterparts on tho smatleat imagina- ble scale of the giant sea vessels, puff noisily about, pertly saluting with their whistles, and flauating the colors of the yacht club in proof of their quality. Hundreds of fine and swift sailing vessels, representing the yachtsmen of the neighboring cities, trim craft de- corated with fluttering streamers and gay oiguals, add to hi a , ek me ey a Craft of imaginable de tion mingle in the = ere Te tugs, and ferryboats, ean , canal steamers, and small boats every quality and in any number.

The wind was light and aoubttnl, with alternate tendencies to the northwest and west northwost. Tho dubious appearance of the morning made Augustus, amateur yachtman, as he cbanged his im- mense now senzation suit fora rig more ‘Sppropriate for astormy trip, gave vent to several feoblo “demns;” while sweet Priscilla, of the same family, who was gorgeonaly attired for a day of oxuberance on board the Armenia, took off the lace bonnet and its strange intermixture of wheat ears and cherrio:, and donned a loss snmptuous attiresthinking, with a «igh, what would Charles think of her if he should bappen to see her in that rig. But both Augustus and Priscilla were agreeably disappointed; for when the hour of eight, advertised to be the time of conveying those who desired to witness the race to the sceue of startiag, had arrived, the cloud curtain was drawn aside, and bright’ sunshine covered river and bay. The rapid Charles Chamberlain sped swiftly to the starting point, and there, among a multi- tude of vossels, steamboats, yachts, wherries, dolphins, and in fact every spectos of propelier that could be pos- sibly brought into requisition, were the contesting ves- sels found, resting serenely upon the placid waters. Thore they ley, heading to ebb tido and wind, the sloops abreast of stake-boat to leeward, in the position named herewith :—First, Evelyn; second, Whitewing; third, Annie; fourth, Nautidus. The schooners being north of the stakeboat in lino to lee as follows:—First, Palmer; second, Phantom; third, Vesta; fourth, Ramb- ler; fifta, Flour de Lis; sixth, Dauntless; seventh, Wid- goon; eighth, Silvie; ninth, "Magic. The sloops’ were resting gently on the calm surface of the bay, with main and topsails set, and the schooners with mainsail, foree sail and gaff topsails all in position, awaiting the arrival of committee, pleasantly situated amon; the ladies on board the Armenia, enable to obtain a perfect view of the scene at thia position, There were counted not less than a dozen excursion boats, backing aud darting between the pretty yachts, many of them chartered by private parties, The countless Ga ig Regs Abd Sie scene. the long range of green wooded hills and gentlo s!: ‘on either by the position of the achts, and the to straips of various ba with the bright sails of craft alluded to and the brightest and gentlest of June sunshines, and one may obtain an ides of the initial point of yesterday's /él-, ‘THE START. The swift Armenia, carrying the committee and guests of the club, arriving at forty minutes past trn o'clock, awakened a great degree of animation among the yachts and the us outside boats, No time was lost, the committee being transferred tmmediately to the tug Chamberiain, when the Chairman started the sioops at 11:17:10 o'clock upon the previous.agrecd signal of low- ering the yacht club burgee at the tug’s bow, They got away in handsome atyle, the wind at this time having shifted to the south, being, however, very light. Quick asa flash the Evelyn and Nautilus hoisted jib and jrb- topanila, and rounded in a prompt mauner, comme: by all the spectators, and put off, followed quickly by the Annie and Whitewing. Turning from the shooting out of these model boats the same signal was given a 11:31:10 o'clock, precisely fourteen minutes later, to the schooners, which were calmly awailing Telease from their restraints, Slipping buoys, the Silvie glided ahead in bandzome style, followed by the Palmer, the captain of which had been instructed to pay off on k in passing the siakeboat, with the Phanto id the rest ition, and others astern. time, with efforia that the yachts were enabled to hold their own. ONWARD TO WRET BANK. Beating dead ahead to wind, making ropeated tacks, the yachts = slowly made headway, the Palmer tacking repeatedly, still beating to windward, followed by the Vesta and Dauntless.

Here these ‘ts were tacked to windward and leeward, when the gallant Widgeon appeared and gavo them 'a merry chase to Romer Shoals. At this time the Palmer was working quite to th nedd craft, and bowling merrily aloag, en rd containing the judges, shot ahead in her efforts to over- take the sloop, which by this bad almost reached THE SOUTHWEST SYIT. * they reached this point the wind bet ec sloopa caught the inepirati Whitowing and Evelyn striving by every powible exer. tion to reach the goal in advance of each other. But fortune favored the former, who turned the buoy the first of the fleet, amid the most nomy dem followed immediately by the Nautilas, who so closely hugged her as to call forth involuntary applause.
