Mexico — the confederates not to be recognized.
The London Globe says:‘ we have reason to believe that on accepting the crown of Mexico the Emperor Maximilian will address from Miramar a formal notification of his accession to the throne to all the provinces and powers with which he desires to establish diplomatic relations. Among the number are the United States of America, Mr. Dayton, the American Minister in Paris, having already intimated the readiness of his Government to accredit a representative in Mexico, and receive a Minister from the Emperor of Mexico. Towards the confederate States the policy of Maximilian will be that of strict neutrality.
’ By the advice of the Emperor Napoleon he will abstain from recognizing the independence of the Southern confederacy, or entering into any diplomatic relations with it until France shall have done so. During Maximilian's visit to Paris Mr. Slidell applied by letter to him for an audience. After consulting his Imperial host Maximilian firmly but courteously declined to grant it. The rumors, therefore, of an early recognition of the confederate States by France and Mexico, and an alliance between the latter empire and the Southern confederacy, are altogether devoid of foundation.
Previous to his departure for Mexico he would seek an interview with the Queen of Spain. Maximilian had refused to sanction the privilege accorded by Almonte establishing the Bank of Mexico.
