The following is the text of the dispatch from Gen. Forey, received by the French Minister of War:Mexico, June 10.--I have just entered the City of Mexico at the head of the army. With a heart still agitated by the event, I address this dispatch in haste to your Excellency, to inform you that the whole population of the city received the army with an enthusiasm that bordered on delirium. The soldiers of France were literally crushed under the showers of garlands and bouquets. Only the entrance of the army into Paris on the 14th of July, 1859, when returning from Italy, can give an idea of the scene.

The army then, in admirable condition, defiled before me, with arise of "Vive'l Empereur!!" "Vive l Imperatrice!"
