SUCCESSOR TO CARDINAL WISEMAN.

The appointment of Dr. Manning as Archbishop of Westminster, is announced. The selection, though confidently anticipated in some quarters, has caused surprise in others.

It is stated that positive iatelligence has beet received that Mousignore Talbot is to be elevated to the dignity of cardinal. He is a brother of Lord Talbot of Malahide, and has long been resi- jdeut at Rome.

Our readers are aware that we refer to the so-called Mexican Emigration Scheme, to which we directed their attention two or three weeks ago. Our late papers inform us that thou- sands of disbanded troops are already ticketted for service in the Empire of Maximilian, but not for service under the standard of that potentate The ery “ On to Richmond!” is changed to “ Ho! fur Mexico!’ No attempt is made to disguise this new-fashioned “emigration” scheme.

The imp rial visit is likely to be extended till the middle of June, every iur- rangement necessary for the smooth conduct of state uffuirs have been made by the Emperor pre- vious tw his departure for Algeria, and a report gf all that transpires in the varions departments of the State is now sent periodically to Algeria by a special service organised for that parpose.

it is stated by the Times Paris correspondent that in an address given a few days since to the Frencl; colonists in Algeria the Emperor announced that a powertal company was about to embark in great enterprises in that country. It is said the Emperor obtained, a day or two before his departure, the promise of ao influential and wealthy person to organize an Algerian company.

The adoption of a military system of government and the subjngation of the Arab race by the sword will harmonise with the theory of Marshal M’Ma- hon, and with the opinions of some in France, who believe that no other system of rule could safely be acted on by the Emperor; but many pe~sons in Paris entertain the idea that unless military subju gation be followed by the blessings of civilization j aud by the enjoyment of at Isast partial self-goy-

The St. John Telegraph of Satarday last contains an extract from the New York Daz/y News of the 20th instant, which shews that serious doubts are entertained respect- ing the capture of the above named indivi- dual. The News is well known to be one of the most influential New York papers, and would scarcely circulate such a report unless there was some foundation forit. The secreey whieh has been observed by the Washington officials respecting Davis's alleged capture, and the conflicting reports which have been circulated respecting the matter — furnish some reason to believe that the Federal authorities have not yet laid their hands on the real Simon Purze, and that only a bogus President Davis has been captured.

Will the great American nation, when the excite- ment of the war bas subsided, patiently bear the burden of taxation neeessary to maintain a large peace establishment? We have seen while the sti- mulus of war lasted that the increased taxes were paid with tolerablé cheertuluess. But the taxes raised during the war were not sufficient to pay for the gunpowder govgumed by the army.
