. The Mexican Emigration.
':{lFrom the New York Herald,'May 10th.]
The excitement respecting the new Mexican
"emigration" movement seetndd to he on the
? increase yvsterda^. The Headquarters of Col.
"Win. H. Allen, corner of Howard and Crosbystreets,
were besieg-d throughout the entire I
day with applicants eag'&to join in the move- j
ment' and hundreds, of.- stalwert men regis-1
*r tered their names on the .enrollment books.
'* Araonf^Ehe applicants yesterday were numbers
. of'sailor a and other persons who have seen ser.
vice in the United; States Navy. The rush of
discharged soldiers.and"army officers to join jn
the expedition was perfectly surprising. The
enrolment clerks weTc kept busy, and if the
enthusiasm that has been excited continues
much longer, it will be necessary, donbtlcs, for
Col. Allen to establish branch o'ffibes in various
. ' , ' parts of the city. The success of this quiet
'. . appeal to the American public, it .is said, has
' astounded the agents of President Juarez, who
had no'idea when they commenced operations
here that the reponse would be so overwhelm
ing. General Orjcga^jt isolated, expresses
himfolf as immensely satisjied over the manner
ic which his plans are working, and apprehends.no
serious obstacles to the triumphal issue
of. the expedition.
GENERVL ORTEGA CALLED TO.WASHINGTON..
It is not deemed prndent, however, t8 divulge
the plan in all its details as yet, a final
agreement wi& the authorities at Washington
not Graving yet been arrived at. Gen. Ortfega
. reoeived a dispatch yesterday from Washington,
requestingvhis presence in that city immc*
, f diately, on important business. The snrnmons
is believed to have reference to the emigration
. scheme, and it is rumored that our .Govern
. ment desires to have an explicit understanding
. . . with the Mexican Minister, and Gen. Ortega
' >% on the subject. The principal difficulty in the
way is thb supposed cession -of Sonora to
France by ^Maximilian. Gen. Ortega will protfabljr
not return to this oity until the middle of
next week. *

At the head of the military part of the expeditionin
this country no. less a person than
Major-General Rosencraus is meDtioaed. He
is said to be using all his influence and interest
* in favor .of the project ami promises to raise
' .V twenty-five thoosaod men in the great West.
. xhs intention is to proffer liim the 'position of,
oommander-in-chief of the-forcos when colIecte<L
together on the plains of Sonora. Large sums
' &{ money have bein contributed, it is said, by
' wealthy American oitizens in the West, and

STEAMERS AND WAR VfcjSEM.TO BE PURCHASED.
As soon ps sufficient funds arrive from ilex^
ico it is- the intentiou of (tpu. Ortega to pur'*
< chjise four large mcrch.-.u1 steamers for trans-!
i^. . p^iiiioB jwrpoEfts, A feu oops-of-waf for use '
in shallow waters, as a'protection to the army*
Two ot'the steamers will be ruu on the Atlantic
aud two on the Pacific.
THE ROUTE OF TIIE EMIGRANTS. '/
.
will not be by thePtvay of the sea coast They
will enter life Mexicun territory at CbLhijafmn,
and proceed thence to their destined . permanent
qnartera*in the district of Sonera.' It is a
part of the plan of Ortega to have , all 'these
emigrants declared Mexican .citizens, invested'
witn all the privileges and immunities of na-,
tives of-the country, but freed from the necessity
of swearing off their allegiance to the United
States. This shrewed plan will, of course,
dace it bevond the power of Maximilian to
I ?' * ,
treat the emigrants as pirates.
Going wiili the express wish of the eon^|jtutional
Ilepublicnn party in Mexico, the emigrants,
of course, cannot be held as more adventurers
and pirates any more than Maximilian^
party who went on the inyitntion of the
notables of Mexico.

IMBROGLIO BETWEEN* GENERALS SHERMAN AND
, - nALT.KCK. '
Late in the night of the 1 Oth instant s?mc
difficulty sprung up between Major-General
William T. Sherman, commanding the Military
Divissioi) of the Mississippi, who had arrived
in Manchester, and Mnjor-Gcncral Henry \V.
Halleck, commanding the Military Divission
of the James.. The rupture between the two
general?,-it is understood, grows out of Gen.
Halleck's order countermanding thp orders of
Sherman to his subordinate commanders during
tbe trucp with Johnson. Gen. Sherman
wrote General Halleck yesterday, it itf said,
that in future all intareonr.ee, of whatever nature,
bcwcen them was forever at Jfcnd end.
THE REVIEW OF ?1IKRWAX'S VETERAN'.1 ABAOXEDTlie
difiercne.e between Generals Sherman
anil Ilalli'ck has resulted in wholly doing away
with frhe review of the army of Georgia, already
annonnced in orders, and the protective
review of the Army of Tennessee, which was
to follow. General Sherman has pe rem tori ly
refused to consent to the condition# of the review
made public, and the consequence is that,
all the plans in this relation will necessarily
not be carried out, and the troops and the pop
ulace are aiiKe (iisappoHitea. ine armies in
question will probably-proceed quietly through
the city to-day.

On Thursday last a friend favored us with a tile of
late Northern papers, which were duly opened in our

desire to look over them. ' Now it lmd so happened
that in their travels here one of these popersliad coine

Alas, Poor Yorick.?There js nothing on earth
proving the vanity of human g'ory more truly than

pets Irave'passed oil' the scene of action, to hide themselves
in grieTand despair. Among the many who
have seen their stars go down, thetr "last\is the greatest
of them all."' rw Sherman has at last,t^ look
upon his laurels gone .glimmering like a .-dream of*
things that were. When ho was about to achieve Lhe
crowning glory of' all his campaigns?when he beheld
at last the batmers of his evil genius?Joe Johnston
?lowered for the. white nag of submission?lie deign*
cd to consent to terms of honor and justice to bis. conquered
foe?when in a.word he showed soiiii^-of the

quarrel with Grant's favonte general, and found him- i
self for presumed -insolence to hisTresident, on the eve j
of being relieved of bis command, by Gen. Grant himself.
To all of this we cannot but say omen from the |
bottom 6f our hearts. Vengeance, we are glad to hope,
is at last upon (he track of the great desolai'or of oor
country. Nembbis m&y have Iier linx-eyes upon her
