Tige Daily 'News. FRIDAY MORNING. MAY l8. 1866. LETTER FROM PARIS. Tho following interesting letter from Paris wo take from the New York Times of Monday : THE OBEAT KXHIIUTION-niOOliEHS OF THE WOBK ON THE C1IA1II' DE M?B8-P?BEWELL OF ADELINA r-ATTI-TUE BONAFAETES. PABIS, Friday, April 27_The work on the Ohamp do Mars, in preparation for the Universal Exposition of 18G7, is carried on with groat onor gy, and no doubt is eutortainod that everything will be ready for tho appolntod time-barring, of course, a general European war, the effect of which would bo to throw all peaceful strugglos of tbiB kind into the background, for the time being. Tho present indications are that the Fair will bo held without postponement, and it promises to bo tho most completo and magnificent display which has yet boen collected, not merely of the world s industrial products, but ofthofour qnartors of tho globe itself, with their customs, curiosities, aroho ology, and ethnography, groupod together in one vast and incomparable- panorama. Not to rofor particularly to this industrial and agricultural feature of the Exposition, I may enumorate some of the marvels which will be found scat tered about this park of fairy land, sepa rato from the groat Exhibition building itself. There will be several aquara. of both fsalt and fresh water ; a palace of humming birds; a Chinese tower, constructed entirely of porcelain; African huts, Indian wigwams, Norwe gian cabins; Russian cottages. German modol farm s, Japat,ese, Persian, Turkish and Tunisian kiosks, Neapolitan Tillas, bamboo pavilions, and modela of tonemont-housos of various kinds-omit ting, it is to be hoped, any specimens from the Bixth Ward, New York; antiquities from Hercu lauenm and Pompeii, a Persian opium factory, ' and several Chinese coffee-houses, with various descriptions of beverages; the hunting box of a Japanese Prince, ?ko., ?to. The Viceroy of Egypt, alone, will send an exhibition complete in itself. With this intention, he baa dispatched messen gers to Soudan, to coleot tho many curious things producod by that almost unknown region of Africa. Two other expeditions have been sent out, one into Upper Egypt, the other to tho Delta. The Viceroy has signified his intention to exhibit the ontiro museum of Boning, which is a col lection of objects of art and industry extend ing over a period of B?X thousand years, all in an excellent state of preservation, and offering proofs of ancient civilization, of which the mod ern world has not tho most distant idea. The decoration ol the Egyption galleries in the princi pal Exhibition building is to be copied exactly from the antique monuments of Egypt, by the moulding process,|aud will alone constitute a com plete school of archaeology, for artists and scion tido men. In the park is to bo erected a magnii cent house, in the Arab style, built and ornamented by Egyptian workmen, to bo partly occupied by tho Viceroy himself, and partly by an Oriental coffee-house, where hospitality is to be dispensed with regal eplendor. Connected with this palace will be plans in relief of the principal c.tios of Egypt, a court-yard, with fountains and verandahs encircling, iu which will be established eight dif ferent descriptions of Egyptian shopkeepers and tradesmen. The Viceroy also contributes a py l?ne, or habitation of a fellah, from Upper Egypt, containing ovens for artificial inoubation, a rook ery, and stables for a number of dromedaries, to be exhibited as used in war. I find it somewhat d.fficult to ascertain, with any degree of certainty or accuracy, what the con tributions of our own country aro to be, beyond the ten wise men who aro to receive $1000 oaoh in greenbacks to pay the expense of several mtnths' residence in Paris, and remunerate them for their time and labor in preparing a complete report on the marvels which will be spread before them. As it has been determined to continue the exhibition an entire year. perhaps<CongresB will be gracions enough to add A trifling additional allowance to this assemblage of savans, in order that the inn keepers of Paris shall not bo obliged to retain their luggage as seourity for the payment of board bills. I would also venture to suggest that they bring such portable articles of value as they may happen to possess, to be deposited in the paternal eharge of the mont de piete, in case of emergeooy. There will also be loft the resource of the throng of wealthy Americans, who will no doubt visit Paris during the exhibition, aud who might be willing to subscribe a few dollars each in order to keep the Scientific Commission from the United States out of French almahouacs. One thing in quite certain : they must not expect to occupy apartments at the Grand Hotel, or to dine habit ually at tho Maiaon Doroo, or the Trois Freres. AB it now costs a single person not less than four dollars a day (I mean, of course, foreign visitors) to live decently in Pirie, and will coat half as muoh more when the Exhibition shall have brought half the world to the French capital, a very mod erate idea of mathematics will enable the reader to arrive at an appropriate idea of the period ten scientific gentlemen from America or elsewhere will be enabled to live here on ten thousand dol lars, United States currency. In sober serious ness, tlfe sum would not more than cover the ex penses of two such gentlemen as our Government should appoint to study and report upon the Ex position of 1HC7, and tho appropriation one;lit therefore to be increased, or the idoa of sending a Commission should be abandoned altogether. Adelina Patti hado farewell to lier Parisian rienda on Wednesday evening, amid a blaze of glory. All the enthusiastic admirers of the young cantatrice were there, jamming the Italian Opera house from parterre to dome, and the receipts, without increase of the rates of admission, closely approached twenty thousand francs. Patti'a en gagement has beeu the pecuniary salvation of M. Bagier. this season, notwithstanding the large salary paid her, for on every evening she has ap ? oared the theatre has been crowded. Her critics, owever they may reproach her for embellishing the music of the masters, do not attempt to deny that no songstress, sincothedaysof Mahbran, has enjoyed a similar popularity. This last periorm ance was one uninterrupted ovation, from begin ning to end, upon a stage covered with wreaths and bouquets. The oldest habitues of the Italiens never before saw such a quantity of floral offering?? thrown at the foet of an artist, and such was the avalanche after the act of "Don Pasquale," in which tho exceptional qualities of Patti's incom parable voice are displayed to the greatest ad " vantage, that a squad of chorus singers was obliged to carry oil the mountains of lilacs and roses thrown upon the stage. The etage-boxea of the opora-houss were ocoupiod by the most fanatical of the diva's admirers. The Baronosa de Rothschild, Mesdames Brandus, de Cazos and de Ganet seemed to have brought with them in exhaastiDle supplies of Howers, and thore were moments when Baron Rothschild himself seemed on the point of falling on the stage with one of hie enormous bouquets. Anaoreon, under the featurei of the immortal Auber, bearing lightly and jauntily his eighty-four years, brought alao hi? tribute of homage to the star of the hour, who will next season give to the Parisians, in the tongue of Tasso, the "Black Domino" ant' "Crown Diamonds." Several boxes of papers, belonging to the estate of Joseph Bonaparte, had recently arrived at tbc Tuileries, from the Eternal City. These doon' meets are said to include not only a large portion of the ex-king of Spain's correspondence with tht Emperor Napoleon I, but also many curious and interesting letters from eminent literary men, ?avails and politicians, in Europe and the United States. TbO <tot<!8 extoid over a wide period ol Joseph Bonaparte's life, ?tala come down to aboul the year 1840. Among the Miora ?vre several from Madame De Ht iel, together with many ilia? portant documents in relation to St. Helena. II is boheved tbat these papers contain traoes of the political association formed after tho'full of the Empire and known to have existed throughout the Restoration and the reign of Louis Philippo. It is scarcely to be oxueoted, however, that all wii be permitted to see tho light- at least during tht life of the present Emperor. Apropos of the Bonapartes, the following ar< the places where tho mortal remains of the de ceased member* of this illustrious family are de posited: The Emperor Napoleon, his oldea! brother, Joseph, and bis youngest brother, Jo rome, aro buried at the Invalides, in Paris; Julia widow of Joseph, is buried with her dangbtei Charlotte, in the Church of Santa Croco, Florence Pauline, Napoleon's sister, is buried in the Bur > ghese Chapel, Rome; Zanaide is buried with he: son, in the Church of Santa Maria. Rome: Luclei is buried with Alexandrine, at Canino, Italy; Pan Is buried near Athens: the mother of Napolcoi (Mmo. Mere), Cardinal FeschoandPrinco Charle Bonaparte are buried at Ajaoolo, Corsica. A charity fair for the benefit of the poor of tin Seventh Arrondissement has just been ne?d in th . saloons of the Department of War, whioh wor scarcely spacious enough to contain the fashion? ble throng who bont their steps thither. Th saleswomen, as usual, were reoruited among th ladies of rank and beauty of tho Faubourg St Germain: and, of course, the occasion was on continual round of wit, g ayo ty, gallantry and ?oh etantial charity. SANTA ANNA. 8ketc*-? of lils Remarkma-e Career. [Prom the N. T. Herald.] ANTONIO LOPEZ DE SANTA ANNA, ex-President and Dictator of Mexico, arrived from St. Thomas at Elizabetbport, N. J., on tho 11th inet., and is now residing with a friend at that place. The pur poso for which ho comos is not generally known bat it is supposed that it is to aid by some means the oauso of tho Liberals in Mexico against MAXI MILIAN of Austria. Ho has lately avowod hostility to tho latter, whom ho formerly lookod upon as ono destined to give peace to Ina diatrae'ed coun try. Santa Anna has passed a rcmarkablo career and is a remarkable character. Ho was born in Jalaps, February 21, 1798. He tiret carne into public no tico in 1821, in tho Mexican war of indouondeiice; and in 1822, having expelled tbo royalists from Vera Crnz. Tie was appointed to tho command of that city. Id November of that yoar ho was de posed by Yturbido, who bad proclaimed himself Emperor; but Santa Anna refused to submit to his authority, raisod the banner of tho Republic in Vera Cruz, and 1823 succeeded in comparing Yturbido's downfall. In the changos which quick ly followed ho placed him-olf at tho head of the fodoral party, but was defeated, and retired to hie estato at Jalapa. In' 1828 he took the field against the Govern ment of Pedraza, chosen to the Presiden jy by an electoral majority of two, declaring the election of Guerrero valid; and after a series of engage ments retired to Oajaca. Tho command of the forces against the Spanish expedition under Bar radas was intrueted to him; and embarking at Vera Graz he forced Barradas to capitulate at Tampico, Soptember 11, 1829. Qtiorrero made bim Minister of War and Commander-in-Chief of tho army, but continuing afterward to exercise the dictatorial powors with which he had been in vested to ropel the invasion, Santa Anna combin ed with Bustamente to overthrow him, and the latter was made President by the army. In Jan uary, 1832, however, Santa Anna headed A now insurrection, declaring for his formor opponent, Pedraza, whose triumph he insured by a victory ovor the government troops in Ootober of that year. Being himself chosen President in March, 1833, he had to confront a popular insurrection under Arista and Don Gabriel Duran, but speedi ly subdued it. He now left tho party of the federalists, and put himself at tho head of tho coutralista, who wished tho power concentrated in the executive government. Though a favorite with tho army, which desired him to bo made Dictator, ho was unpopular with the nation, es pecially aa a rumor was (spreading that he aimed at tbo imperial dignity. A new revolt broke out in four provincos, and a manifesto WHB issued at Texea against his gov ernment. On May 11, 1835, he utterly dofeatod tho army of the innurgnnto on the plain's of Guad alupe, nour Zacatecas, killing two thousand aud taking two thousand Bevon hundred prisoners. I his was a fatal blow to Hie republican party in Mexico, and Santa Anna was named dictator. The destruction of the federal constitution was noon consummated; the Stato legislatures were abol ished, their places being supplied by a departmen tal i-.muic.il, and the Governors of tho several States became dependent upon the supreme pow er. Mexico was submissive, but a revolutionary feeling had been long existing in Texas, which now broke ont into open insurrection. Early in 1836 Santa Anna took the field in person. By the middle of February he reached tbo Rio Grande at the head of six thousand troops, stormed the Alamo at San Antonio on March 6, after several days' siege, and massacred its defenders, but with great loss to himself ; and after the rnassacro at Goliad, done nnder his express orders, marched toward Gonzales. At San Jacinto he met the Texan army under Houston, by whom he WSB to tally routed, April 21, and the day following taken prisoner. Daring his captivity he made a tn-aty with the Texane, which resulted in nothing, as his functions were Buspended by the Mexican gov ernment. In 1837 he was set at liberty, and returned to bia native country by way of 'the United States. On reaching Vera Graz be was coldly received. At the Presidential election of that year he received bat two oat of eixty-niae electoral votes. He had retired to his estate, twenty-seven miles from Vera Cruz, when (November 27) the Castle of han Juan de Ulloa was bombarded by the French. He hastened to Vera Grnz, where his services were accepted by General Victoria, and took command after the fall of the castle. He repelled an as sault upon that city by tho Fronob (December 5). forcing them to re-emoark, but received a wound in the leg whieh necessitated its amputation. In the contentions between the centraliste and the federalists which during the following years dis tracted Mexico, he was ODO of the leaders ef the former; and from October 10, 1841, to June 4, 1844, be was virtual Dictator, under the title of Provisional President, Bravo aud Oanalizo acting as his substitutes daring two intervals of absence with the army. Ho wan again Constitutional Pres ident, under the instrument of June 12, 1813, from June 4 to September 20, 1844, when he was de posed by a new revolution, taken prisoner near TIacolula on January 15, 1845, banished for ten years, and took np his residence in Cuba. Tho two Bucceoding Presidents, Herrera and Paredes, found themselves unable to grapple with the difficulties u mini- which the country WHS labor ing, aggravated aa they wero by the war just breaking out with the United States, danta Anna was recalled, and by the connivance of the Ameri can government, which, for reasons that havo never been made known, supposed bim favorablo to peace and to recognizing the independence of Texas, he waa permitted to pas8 through the lleet and reach Moxico in safety. There, contrary to the opinion entertained in the Unitod States, he declared vigorously for tbo war, and was appoint ed generalisdimo by the provisional government under Salas, and in December waa made Provi sional President. Immediately after, at the head 'if twenty thousand men, tho flower of the Mexi can army, ho advanced northward, and on. Febru ary 22, 1847, attacked the Am er i jan troops at Buena Vista, five thousand strong, under General Taylor. He waa effectually repula ed. but never theless matntainod his r?putation and popularity, and collected a new army for the defence of the eastern frontier. In the meantime ?naya waa elected President, and Santa Anna, takiug com mand of hia troops, intrenched himself at Gorro Gordo, where, on April l8 he was attacked and defeated by the Amerioana under Scott. Yet in spite of these disasters he was enabled to collect throe thousand men from the fragments of hie i broken army, and, retreating toward the national capital, halted at Ay ntl v Tnere he was informed ? Of hie appointment to the Presidency, aa it was ? felt by the Mexioans, amid all their disheartening i reversos, that he waa the only one who could make i head against the Americans with any prospect of I anocesa. But finding subsequently that the elec > tion for President which the 8tates had held on 1 May 15 waa unfavorable to his pretensions, he . prevailed on Congress to postpone the counting 1 of votes until January, 1818. and in the meantime banished or imprisoned all those opposing his > schemes, and established a severe censorship of i the press. Daring the conreo of the yoar he car - ried on secret negotiations with Scott and Trist, i the Amor loan c ira mia al?n or, with qiieationablo ' sincerity, and certainly with no result. He" or ?anized an army of thirty thousand men for the efence of the capital. The battles of Oontreraa l and Obnrabaaco followed (August 19 and CO, ? 1847), &nd the next day an armistice, proposed by '? Gen. Scott, was accepted by' him, wt-foh Sttepoud 1 ed hostilities till September 8. The battle of Molinos del Roy was fought September 9; and on i Septombcr 16,1847, the city of Mexioo waa cap i tured, having previously boen evacuated by the i officers of the Government. I H nita Anna inw resigned the executive oh iir to Sena y Pena, who bad been constitutionally elect i ed his successor, and though ho despaired of auo > coBsfully resisting tho party of peace in Moxico, he made t, last effort to rotrieve his. reputation by ) the siege of Puebla; but ho was attacked by Qon. ? Lano at Haamantla, and forced to retire from the . placo, whiob waa now relloved. In tbo middle of I January, 1848, an attempt was made to anrprl?e - him at Tehuaoan, where ho wa? lurking, but fail' , ed; and about February 1, Santa Anna informed " the Minister of War and the American Commaud ; or-in-Chief that he desired to leave Mexico, and - "seek an au- lum on a foreign soil, where he might r pass his last days in that tranquillity which he i could never find in the land of his birth." The 1 desired permission was granted, and on April 5, i 1819, he took passage from La Antlgu* to Jamal ? oa. lu that island ne remained several years; but the anarohloal condition of Mexioo under the a President)!?- of Herrera and Arista turned men's S eyes oneeTnpro npon him, a. ? returning to M?xl B coln 1863, ho was received with greatenthnsi - asm. He waa, appointed President for one year, B aft-' which he was to call a constituent C ingress; 0i but he fomented a new revolution, by which he . waa declared President for life, with power to D appoint his auooeaaor, and the title of Moat So . rene Highness. He began to rule with despotic authority, and the revolution of Ayntia followed, led by General Alvaroz. After a staggie of two years. Santa Anna, finding himsclj without re sources, since he had spent the ten rallions of the Gadsden treatv, signed his unconditpnnl abdica tion, and sailed (August K5,1855) irai Vera Cruz for Havana, no afterwards went p Turbaco, Venezuela, for two years, and has sirso resided in the Island of St. Thomas. On tho ad'ont of Max imillian in Mexico ho embraced thetause of tho usurper, believing, as ho detlared, Oat Maximi lian couid restore peaco to tht country. Ho was disnppointod, bowevor, in his' hopes and porhaps his expectations; for ho soon.abandoned Mexico and the causo and returned toBt. Thomas. lloro he has since resided.
