RECEPTION OF THE MEXICAN DEPUTA-
TION-SPEECH OF THE ARCHDUKE
MAXIMILIAN.

•

MIRAMAR, Aran, 10.
The Archduke Maximilian received the Mexican
deputation to-day. He spoke as follows :
" Alter • mature examination of the act of
acceptance of the Mexican crown which you have
submitted to me, I have come to the conviction
that the resolution of the Mexican notables has
been confirmed by au over-ruling majority of the
inhabitants of that country. Such being the case,
the first of the conditions for which I stipulated on
the 3rd October has been fulfilled. The second
condition—that a guarantee of the independ-
ence and welfare of the country should
be placed on a firm basis—has been secured by
the Emperor Napoleon, who throughout has been
animated by &spirit of sincerity and kindness which
I shall never forget. The illustrious head of my
family has also given his consent. I now solemnly
declare my acceptance of the crown you have offered
to me. Mexico is entitled to select a government
corresponding to her wishes and her requirements.
This confidence shall not be misplaced. I assume
the constitutional power entrusted to me by the
nation. I will retain it so long as it may be neces-
sary to establish a state of legal order, and com-
pletely to organise liberal institutions. I shall
hasten to place the monarchy under the autho-
rity of constitutional • laws, so soon as
the pacification of the country shall be
'accomplished. Executive power strictly defined
is better secured than when a matter of uncer-
tainty ; and I will define it in such a manner as
shall be a guarantee of the stability of the govern-
ment. I hope to be enabled to prove that well
regulated liberty is compatible with order. I will
also uphold with equal energy the flag of indepen-
dence. I desire the assistance of every Mexican to
support rue in accomplishing my splendid task.
Union will make us strong. My government, I
repeat it, will not forget the gratitude due to the
illustrious Prince by whom alone the regeneration
of Mexico has been rendered possible. On my
journey to Mexico I shall visit Rome, to receive
the blessing of the Holy Father, which to me is
doubly important"

. .
The speech of the Emperor of Mexico was replied
to by the president of the Mexican deputation.
