The Madrid journal La Epoca, of the 15th Mat.,
publislws the fullowiug corrtvonaence from Vera
Cruz : -

Vera Cruz, Jan. 14.

The three nations have presented their several demands,
es& in a separate form. Those of Spain are : 1, The nomi-
malice of a Mexican representative at the Court of her Ca-
tholic Majesty, charged to give suitable satisfaction for the
insult offered to the nation by the expulsion of its ambas-
sador since the assumption of the supreme government in
the capital of the Republic by the present President ;
The immediate fulfilment of the Monelmente treaty;
3, Indemnity for the losses caused to the Spaniards
on several points, of which mention bas been
made, but which the person from whom we re-
(*ire this news has not present to his memory.
4, Indemnity to the amount of 40,000 piastres for the
destruction of the Spanish frigate Concepcion. In case
General Count de }tense and the French Vios-Admiral
Jurien de la GraviOn absenting themselves from here,
the English Commodore Dunlop is to remain is quality of
governor-general in the name of the three nations; and
M. Meodinoa is to he placed under his orders as deputy
governor. The period granted the Mexican government to
reply to the ultimatum is four days, from the moment of
its delivery into the hands of the President by the com-
missioners et the commasders•iu•cbief of the allied troop@ ;
the commissioners, nevertheless, are empowered to grant a

further delay of two days, if they deem it necessary:

I _
The following is the text of the proclamation
to the Mexican people :
Mexicana—The representatives of England. Frame,
and Spain filial a mewed duty in making known to you their
intentions on their snivel upon the territory of the repub-
lic. The faith of treaties violated by the various govern-
ments which have succeeded one another amongst you, and
the personal safety of our countrymen incessantly menaced,
have made this expedition necessary sod indispensable.
Those persons deceive you who make you believe that
behind such just pretensions are concealed projects of con
I quest, restoration, and intervention in your politics
and your administration. Three nations that loyally
accepted and recognised your independence have a right to
be regarded as animated by more noble, more elevated, and
more generous sentiments than the wish to deceive you.
The three nations we represent, whose first interest seems
to be to obtain reparation for the grievances done to them,
are actuated by a higher motive, and one of a more general
and more advantageous scope ; they come to offer • friendly
hand to a people on whom Providence had lavished all His
gifts, but whom they behold with sorrow wearing out their
strength and exhausting their vitality under the violent im-
pulsion of civil wars and perpetual convulsions.
This is the truth, sad we who are charged to set it
before you, will do so only with • view to make you labour
for your own future which interests us, and not for Use
purpose of making war upon you. It is you, yam ex-
clusively, without any foreign intervention, whom It
behoves to constitute yourselves in a mild and durable
manner. Your work will be a work of regeneration, which
all those will applaud who shall have contributed to it.

Baron Ricaso gave another grand ball on the
17th. The Duchees of Genoa, the foreign ministers, and
other distinguished personages were remarked there, to-
gether with upwards of 200 ladies.
The Italian paper, the Tribuno, of the 17th,
publishes the following latter from General Garibaldi
"To the Italians.—The Trituno has raised its sympa-
thetic voice on behalf of the poor Lyonese ; let it be praised
for it. In 1849 that generous populace uttered • cry of repro.
bation against the occupation of Rome ; in 1859 it applauded
the valiant French army, which flew to the rescue of en-
dangered Italy, and its cry was free from all idea of con-
quest and aggrandisement. Entire Italy ought, as one man,
new to respond by deeds to this appeal of fraternity, and by
' donations worthy of her, show to these unhappy workmen
of France that she has not forgotten their conduct, and that
she is the sister of the peoples in bad as well as in good for-
tune.—G. GARIBALDI.—Capms, Feb. 15, 1862."
A Warsaw letter of the 13th, says :—" The
railway station here offered a curious sight on Monday
night, when the archbishop arrived amongst us. A crowd
of people, with lanterns*in their hands, were assembled in
the square before the station, and in the street. through
which his grace was expected to peas,while • detachment of
infantry was stationed in the centre of the square, and
pickets, sentries, and Cossacks were to be seen at every few
steps. Only the military and ecclesiastical dignitaries were
admitted into the station to bid his grace welcome.
This was prudent and proper, but it did not please.
The crowd, however, behaved remarkably well. There
was no trouble, no confusion, bat also not the slightest sign
of eathusiasm. When the archbishop appeared a voice was
heard to say, ryes' (may he live long), hog it was
not echoed. Another voice cried oat is answer, • Let biro
ask that Archdeacon Bialobrseaki be set at liberty,' and
this was repeated by a voice here and there all along the
way hem the tumorous to the arsidepisoopal essideaos.*
