At five minutes past twelve last night its advent was ‘hailed by a salute of one hundred and one guns and a bonfire, also by the ringing of belis. The day dawned clearly and brightly on its nativity, and the capital was dressed with bunting to testify the public pleasure, The flags hung out were of course the British, with a few, wery fow, French flags, It was evident that the cele- bration of the birth of the new State was to fall upon the shoulders of the authorities, the people generally taking a passive interest in it, ‘There is a feeling of anxiety as to how the union will ‘will work, rather than of confidence in it, About the hour of eleven o'clock the streets became crowded, and the Russel House was the centre of news. ‘The groups of people wended their way towards the Parliament buildings to ‘ness the arrival of his Excel- Jency the Governor Geuers!. A few minutes before eleven o’clock a guard of honor of one hundred men of the Rifle Brigade, with the band, drew up, lining the @pproach to the entrance of the eastern block of the Parliament building. } at eleven o’ciook precisely Lord Monck, the Viceroy, drew up amid salutes of artillery. The guard pre- wented arms and the band played “God Save the Queen.” The people looked on in silence at the pageant. His Excellency entered the building and was then shut out from the public, where I am enabled to say ‘that he took the oath of office as Governor General of the Dominion of Canada before Chief Justices Draper ‘and Richards and Mr. Justice Wilson, Hagerty and Mon- dalet, ‘His Excellency then proceeded to name the members @f the Privy Council. At this early hour it is impossible to give a positively eorrect list of the Council, but it is believed that the following members will form it:—Hon. Messrs, J. A, Mac- donald, Alexander Campbell, Wa. McDougall, Wm. Bow- land, Alexander T. Galt, George E. Cartier, J. Chapais and H. L. Langevin for Canada, West and East, while Bon. Messrs, Tilley, Mitchell, Archibald and Keaney are the members of the lower provinces, , This would form a cousiell of twelve, / Macdonald was then knighted and Cartier made a ©ompanion of the Bath, from which it will be seen that Cartier ts not #0 indifferent to the senseless titles in the giftof the crown as the Montreal Minerva and his Sriends would have Canadians belicve. 1 The omission of Blair’s and McGce’s names will cause ome dissatisfaction, This may be ascribed to Mr. Car- tier, who has got the government formed to suit the ‘views of the French Canadians. ' Lord Monck will remain at the head of government for twelve months only, it is reported, and will be suc- eveded by the Duke of Buckingham, with the title of ‘Viceroy. This would be the next step towards mon- areby, which could not be suddenly imposed upon the ‘Canadians, The only Lieutenant Governor appointed, I am told, 4e Sir N. F. Betleau, who is the Executive for the pro- ‘wince of Quebec.

The Queen's y its t true, was duly commemorated in many places, but there is no denying the fact that some there are whe take no very deep Interest in the day. Many natives of Canada, remote from the mother coun- try, very naturally were without that profound entausi- asm which Englishmen manifest on the natal day of their Queen. A home holiday—one of more local inter- ‘eat— was what was required. The Canadians bave wisued for a great apniverery, like our Fourth of July; and Domini gay, which imitiates ee existence of the separate provinces as a nationality, will gratify this popular yearning for a holiday, and wil doubtiess con- tinue to be ap occasion tbat will be celebrated 12 @ more enthusiastic manner with each returuing vear. After the midday peal of bolls and grand salute of twenty-one guns, there was a luli im the iestivities The throng scattred to the hotels and restaurants, or to the wagons which) brought them from the country, wherein they proceeded to discuss the contents of various hanp- ers and lunch baskets which had been packed with choice delicacies, ‘The Chandiere, Queen, Ottawa and Rideau Fire companies, and the Central and Lower Town Hook and Ladder companies proceeded to the gardens adjacent to the city, where, with feasting and drinking and the iy of their fair friends, they ngde merry the reat the day. The sports of the afternoon wero begun by the famous Ottawa (lub, whose members were led to the cricket ground oo the outskirts and pitched wickets, Here they selected a rival pair of elevons, and enjoyed a lively con- test during the remaining hours of the di ‘Ybe town campus—a beautiful lawn, shaded in part with trees—was the Scene of the athietic games, which were instivuted for money prizes, contributed by the corporation, and took place still later in the afternoon, ‘The spore were under the direction of W.

A couple of races on the Rideau canal, which flows through the centre of the city, wound up the sporisof the day. The first of these was four sculled skif's, for which there were three entries. The banks of the canal for a good portion of the course, which was a mile in length, was lined with spectators, who cheered aod waved their hats and took the most lively interest in the diversion. The next race—an Indian canoe race— was a most exciting and, to a stran; the most interest- ing one. They were the bistoric canoe, made in the primitive fashion, but manned by crews of French Canadians and Irish, whose excited actions and scarlet paddies and peculiar mode of propulsion gave the scene an air of novel animation, The illumination of the Parilament buildings rather meagre display of fireworks—the latte luxury #0 far from the great cities—closed the popuiar celebration of tbe first day of the Canad.an Dominion.

Anxiety and Combinations of the Party Spoils. men—Retorm, Coalition and Anti-Coalities— Wire-Palling for Efections, ° a Tomowto, Jane 20, 1367, ‘The plot thickens, and the political denowement 19 as- surediy at hand. On Wednesiay the reform members of the government, sccompanied by Moser, Tilley and Archibald, met # number of their friends at the Queen’s Hotel, in this city, to whom was submitted the plan for the formation of a new coalition ministry, All those reformers who had voied at the last seasion of the Par- Mament with the government, against the non-coufi- dence motion proposed by Mr. McGiverin, were invited; but the attendance was quite limited. It was announced by Mr. McDongal! that he, Mr, Howland and Mr, Blair had consented to take office in the proposed coalition, and he asked the support of their political frends, To arrive at the exact result of the caucus would be diffi. cult enough, as it was pretty much of a private nature; it is reported, however, that the necessary support was offered, The Globe says there were thirteen of the in- vited gentlemen preseut—six Senators and seven mem- bers of the Assembly—and that only four of the latter and one of the former were favorable to a coalition. If this 4s correct it looks strauge that the recusant gentle- men should have had the bad taste to go where they were certainly not wanted, But the statemont needs con- firmation, Another account claims that everything was satisfactory, and that all the members of the government desired was accomplished. It is clearly understood that Mossrs, McDougali, How- land and Blair will be the reform members of the Cabi- net from Ontario, This is acunning piece of political manuvring on the part of Mr. John A. Macdonald. His political friends will hardly like a reform prepon- derance inthe ministry from this section of the do- minion, but he will easily satisfy them upon that head when he gives them to understand that the four mem- bers from the Province of Quebec are mon after his own heart, and that asa matter of course he will have his own way in the government in spite of the three to two reformers from Ontario, MeDougall, Howland and Biair readily swallowed the bait thrown out by the expert po- litical angler, and they will have a delightful time in the elections, But what cares John A. for that? He has racrificed three or four reformers before by taking them under bis special protection, There was Mr, pence, who, how- ever, fell in for a fat collectorship, and Mr. Morrison, who became a Judge; but Mr. Roes bad to take care of himself, and so had ‘poor Foley, who is uow knocking for admission to the reform ranks again. McDougall hounded those men out of political life for doing as he has done bimse/f; and he will be taken in. too, and disposed of politically. It was very generally believed that he could not resist the ure brought to bear im favor of keeping him out of the coalition; but he yielded, and the other two followed. Mr. How- land was never ap extreme politician, for the simple reason that he was content with deeds rather than words, As for Mr. Ferguson Blair, he was an anti- coalitionist up to the moment he was taken into the new Cabinet. Wonder if he will recall bis.tewter written to advise the election of an anti-coalitionist not a hun- dred miles from this, He will have no trouble in gett over the feeling his conversion has created, Bein; Senator, of course he bas nothing to fear, be the rest of an experiment of w coalition minietry what it ma) Tho reason for Mr, Blair changing his opinion so au denly 18 pot appaysn! of being y, for he ia & enn leman of Ce onl if dis abiest doula not ve of a mercenary kind. was easy enough for him to continue ® coalitionist; but the fact of his de- claring underhandedly against a coalition, and then be- coming a member of one, is a mystery not so very eusy tobe cleared up. John A. Macdonald has played his eards to perfection, and will soon be in a position to Jaugh down the impotent attempts of bis enemies, who are just pow moving heaven and earth to destroy his iniluence, The other great event of the week has been tho Re- form or Anti-Coalition convention, which was convened attbe Music Hall in this city on Thursday. The at- tendance of delegates was quite large, bat it does not appear that there was any regularity in their selection, many of thom being but nominal re mntatives from their respective districts. genius of the occasion was Mr. W. Patrick, of tt, a former mem- ber of the Legislative Assembly, and now a candidate for the Legislature of Ontario, Very little business was done the tirst day, although the Conventiou was in ses- sion until one A. M. yesterday morving. A string of resolutions was vonage by Mr, Brown, bor taken up separately adopted. The princi one was directed against a coalition cabinet and concluded thus:— “While this Convention is thoroughly satistied that the reform party has acted in the best interests of the country by eustaining the government until the con- federation measure was secured, it deems it an impera- tive duty to declare that the temporary alliance between the reform and conservative parties should now cease, ? jous, and were finally permitted wo address the Convention. sir, Howland spoke first, and futly expiained his reasons for accepting office in ihe new confed-ration Cabinet.

He followed Mr. McDougall ina bitter persotal reply, which was by no mesos what it ought to have been ir Mr. Brown ts the patriot ho claims to be. It remains to be seen what effect the course taken by Mesers, Howland and McDougall will bave upon the country. The result of the Convention will teil only upon those who fuvor ovement ; for it fs not expecied that cause, On the contrary, it Is appa A split in thé tefurm ranks, Some Hn A bers of the Legisiatare are with M Dougall and Blair, and more will go over to thein the elections take place.

The general teciiuy #3 one of profound regret, both for Mexican states.ieu and Maximilian, Much bitterness seems to be felt azainst Secretary Seward, who is now blamed for nut writing a more peremptory letter ta the Mexican government, demanding, not bogging, that the life of ‘the ex-Emperor should ba spared. It is said here that Secretary Stanton has expressed himself very strongly on ths subject in private conversations, and bas not hesitated to covdema Seward's course, Minister Campbell is also believed to be of the same opinioa, and is said to have been surprised.at the moderate tome of ‘Mr. Seward’s despatches.

It was on the 14th of December, 1866, that Maximilian revoked his Intention of skodaddling out of the country and started from Orizaba on bis way back to tho capital, Tt was on the 14th of February that, yielding to the insidious persuasions of Marqacz, he loft Mexico city to undertake the disastrous Querétaro campaign; and it ‘was on the 14th of March that he gained his first victory over the hberal armies when they attacked the city with their whole force and were repalsed heavily at every point, These coincidences being mentioned to Maxi- milian he replied, “I wonder what the next 14th will bring forth?” The next 14th brought forth nothing; but on the 14th of Mav, the next month following, Colo- nei Miguel Lopez sold the position of La Crosse to the liberal commander-in-chief, and on the next morning the Emperor and his whole army found themselves prisoners of war. The instructions which carried the present writer mto the camp of the imperial army were brief and to the point, Lying over in New Orleans tor orders, after vainly trying to make some creditable show out of the Sherman-Campbell flasco, of which embassago he was an unrecognized and irresponsible member (and might tell queer stories, were he sv disposed), this brief tele- gram reached bim:— ~ ‘ eecevcce serene resree rom resnee rere reas rt s8et tt tt@ b aro Max and write regularly and fully.—(Ep. 3 N.Y. Hirato. 3 MeONOCCLTOLL ELLE TELE DE BEDOLEDEDD BELEDELOSEDESECOLES) To follow Max from Orizaba to Puebla, when he had determined to continue the straggie, was an easy task, and bad already been accomplished before the tele- gtam was received. To follow him from Puebla to the capital and thence to Querétaro was a moro difficult mat- ter, and, among other inconveniences, involved the per- son undertaking it in the following little perplexities :— A mteback, teas Arrived im Querétaro two days before the advent of Maximihan, the Heratp representative incurred a strong risk of being promptly strung up as a Yankee spy. Three days previously he bad seen Marquez manifest an earnest inclination to hang a couple of American travel- Jers he had encountered on the march from Mexico to Querétaro, because they happened to possess passes from Escobedo and drafts on the capital—an inclination only restrained by the active intervention of the Em- peror Maximilian. In Querdétaro, before the advent of the imperial forees, Miramon was omnipotent, and Mira- mon, more polished and educated than Marqees, was @ven more virulent and dangerous in his hatred and dread of foreigners, The arrival of the Emperor alone relieved him of present peril. Application being made to Marimilian to permits Hxnatn correspondent to eccompany him om the approaching cam- paign, the reply received was, ‘Yes, if the corre- spondent will pass his word not to write any- thing to injure the cause of the empire.” To this answer Was returned that such a pledge was out of the power of a Heratn correspondent to give; but that he would bind himself to write mothing but unbiassed state- mente of actual facts and occurrences, ‘‘That,’’ replied the Emperor, “is all I ask,” and General Marquez, as Chief of Staff, was at once instructed to make out the necessary safe conduct. After adelay of siz days he did #0, by handing in « blank commission on his staff, caleulated to. compromise the person holding it in every possible way. From this time to the end of the siege every facility for obtaining information that Maxi- milian could afford was freely given, and no obstacle that Marquez or Miramon could interpose waa ever neglected. THE CAMPAIGN OTENED. Maximilian, on bis arrival in Querétaro, took up his quarters in the Casino or Merchants’ Club House, one of the finest buildings in the city, He stayed here only a fow days, On the first news being received of the liberal forces moving up the valley he moved outside the city ° y 3 = —.. do as my solders do.” By bad management on the part of Marquez the tiberal armies, instead of being met in detail as they entered the valley, were allowed to flan! the position held by the imperial forces and tw occup; all the beiguts arouad the city, THE SiRGE then commenced. On the 14th of March the liberal forces attacked the city on all points, and Jenlarly directed their attention to the convent of La Cru: where Maximilian commanded in person, and whic! poipt, even thus early, was recognized as the Key to th¢ whole position, By another blunder op the part of Marquez only a portion of the ovtworka of La Craz had been occupied, and the liberal forces under Corona made their way to within & hundred yards of Maximilian’s headquarters, In the meantime he had given up his comfortable residence in the city, avd had detailed % as an hospital for the wounded, During the whole day the Cruz was subjected to the hoitest fire. At oue time asbeli dropped plumb in the midst of Maximitian aud his staf. Every man ex- cept the Emperor threw himselt flaton the ground. Maximilian alone stood bol: upright sacrificing bo whit of bis six feet one anda half, and when it was all over and the shell bad burst without hurting apy one, he sim ply remarked in Spanish, “It’s getting rather warm, gentlemen,” and passed quietly on, The love at the Craz alone that day was fully one hundred and fifty men, including some of Maximilian’s beat foreign officers. But the positions which Marquez ought to have o¢eupied at first, aud which the liberals sd taken possession of were captured from theny, and the combined attack was repulsed at every point, without the loss of « single gun, or, 80 far as was known within the city, of a single prisoner, One gun, a Parrott rifled gun, supplied from the United States, was captured from the liberals, and about two hundred prisoners (tucludiag two American oificers), all of whom were treated with the etunost Lemanty, MAX VETOOS A RETREAT, Six days after this—on the 20th of March—a council of war.was held. quez, Miratnon, Mejia and Arrel- Jano were m favor of evacuating the city, taking with them the mountain Low nly, and spiking atl the larger guns, But Maximiian vehemenuy opposed the proposal, declaring tat tough his generals mighs go he would not, He had come thece to fight it out, and ght itout he would do to the last. Eventually he left the counci!, and passing into bis private room told them he waited their deci» An hour passed in heated discus- sion, and then it wa: resolved to bold on and to send Marquez and Vidwurri to Mexico city for reinforcements, TREACHERY ALT. ROUND, From this time tili the final betrayal there was one succession Of treachery. Marquez, instead of returning to Querétaro with the Emperor's forewn troops, a8 he had been ordered to do, went into business for himself, Mirauwon was discovered in communy nh with the liberals, Ramirez, another imperial gederal, was de- tected in the ¥ery act of attempting to turn over the cit to Corona under cover of a sham aitack, and last of all came the crowning, Judas-iike treachery of Col. Lopez, the Emperor’s most intimate friend, which there is too much reason to fear has resulted in the death of the un- happy, misguided but well meaning Prines. SHADOWS OF COMING RVESTA, - ~* For weeks previous to the end of the siege, Maximilian was scen to be suffering under a constant depression of spisits, though he vainly strove to bear up against il, aud moved aboat among bia soldiers with a cheering word for every one, In the art of saying pleasant nothings Maximilian had no equal. Ho moved about in the hospitals, brightening every tace and never leaving any wounded mau without some sub- stantial token of his regard, If the soldiers of ona.com- pany who bad distinguisuca themseives by bravery m the fight and homanity afterwards, he distributed to every man a twenty dolar goid piece of bis own coin- ace. His thouxhttulnesa for his troops knew no end. ‘Three days before the cud of the siege be paced in the hands of the preseat writer a fetter begging bim to see it forwarded to his brother of Austria, in which he asked him to provide {or ali the veteran invalids of the imperial army, On the day before the betrayal that Jeuter unfortunately handed to Prince Salm Salm. and was captured upon him with all the rest of the un- happy Archduke’s private correspondence, In bis regard for American interests the Emperor was not less. con- siderate. There wae un embargued American train of ove bundred ana seventy mutes belongti to Mr. MeMarty, of Texas, and under charge of Mr. E. R. Wells, formerly of New York. Forty-two of these mules bad already heen killed for “beef,” and Miramon, who tn his hatred of Americans stay¢d at no Wmit, bad Given orders for all the other American mules to be killed fora hke purpose. Maximilian hearing of it, at once wrote an autograph and peremptory order that 00 more American mules should be taken, aod further directed that as soon as there were sufficieat funds in the treasury thoae that had been Ki their full value. In this respect trees, and were in the last stave of starvation, Ulling ‘the maj dom», when he exhibited his American papers, that be cared nothing for them and he must make bis reclamations on Napoleon. WHAT BECAME OF LOPRZ, Tho fate of the officer who betrayed Querétaro and the Emperor ts doubtful. He was seen in Queretaro at large the day after the surrender. That he had received then bis promised reward seems unlikely, siace he made ap- tio to one of the loading liberal officers for relief. ting Colonel Rincon Gallardo (Pepe Rincon), he sad, “Colonel, I am net, like you, @ rich man, with maoy hacienda. I bave nothing but my sword to depend upon 1 hope you will recommend me to a position in ‘the liberal army.”” Pepe Rncon(the eamo man who tried to let Maxtmilian cacape: is reported to have re- plied: “Colonet’ if I recommend you to any posi- ton it will be to @ position on a tree, with a rope around our neck.’’ Colonel Migwe!

Should the news published in the Herat of Sunday of Maximulian'’s execution on the 20th of June be finally confirmed, as there is every reasoa to beileve it will the responsibility of his death will rest persona. First, of course, Napoleon and hench- man Bazaine; then Mr. Scarlet, the British Minister, who, when the easily led Emperor was at Orizaba, pre- pared to make a midnight skedadd'e from the country, for which he had compicted ail bis arrangements, por- suaded him that it would be more dignified for bim to remain and fight it ont; then Marquez, who dragged him into the Quer‘taro campaign aod proved uatrue to him after the expedition had becn entered upon, Iaetly, Lopez, the final instrument of bis betrayal, Whether some responsibility does not rest with the State Depart. ment at Washington for the muddle they ave made of the Mexican legation, the country will determine.
