Hew Yore, 25th February. The Herald, 's , Gity of Mexico correspondent states that the Imperialists, not less than the Bebublicans, are closely watching every indication of the designs of the United States in regard to the settlement of their troubles; and the former are much delighted by a rumor that our Government had consented to recognise Maximilian, on condition of the withdrawal of the French troops. It is said that Maximilian is tired of having the French red continually held over him. He is said, to manifest aqomplete

indifference regarding the dilapidated condition of theJJlmperial finances. It is thought he hopes to soon overcome the difficulty by establishing a comparative peace, and inducing foreign immigration, thus developing the great foreign wealth of the country ; and he is said to be anxious for American settlers, who will bring, as well as there own skill, ingenuity and industry, their modern invention and machinery. The Imperialists are represented as being very much surprised to learn of the apprehensions in "Washington that Maximilian has intended re-establishing slavery as they are inclined to regard him as possessing large ideas of liberty.
