According to a letter from Vera Cruz, there are scarce - ly a dozen at the capital all told, and none in the service of Maximillian. The writer says : Some, a very few, Confederates have ap dlied for service in the imperial army. But to this hour not one has been acceptod. Why or wherefore is not for me to ssy. But the feet is as stated. There is no Mexican army proper. The military organization is entire ly French. Bazaine is at the head of the military department of the empire: his troops are mostly French, a few Austrians, Belgi ans, and some six thousand Mexicans in various parts of the empire, make up the ar my. The army is what may be called a “regular army,” and to get into it is no easy task. It could be greatly enlarged if vol unteers could get in. As to “ten thousand Confederates," or ten Confederates having been “armed and paid by the empire," it is all “boch.” AMUSEMENTS.
