MEXICO.
The following letter appears in thG New :Fork
Herald:—

"Havaunaaaslau,mAedprail
1219e,w18ah62ap.
" Affairs in Mexico have
though to some not an unexpected one. Those
whose eyes are blinded by an unreasonable hatred
of everything Spanish could see nothing but
the private ambition of General Prim, whilst
the private ambition of other parties was silently at
work for its own accomplishment. The phantasm
obscured the reality. Contrast the language and
conduct of the French commissioners with those of
General Prim at the time the rupture between the
allies occurred, and no one can fail to see that the
latter has conducted himself like an honourable man
in strict accordance with his duty. The Eco do
Europa gives a lengthy account of the preliminary
meeting held at Orizaba on the 9th, and from it I
collect the following facts. The General (Prim)
demonstrated from clear and patent reasons that the
London Convention did not authorise the attitude
taken by the French, that the allies have no right
to impose on the Mexicans a form of government
displeasing to them; that to attempt to do it in the
manner the French are now trying is not only to
abandon the original idea of the coalition, but to
break the agreement with the government of the
republic, and that in order to comply religiously
with what was stipulated between the three powers,
and what was agreed on here between their repre-
sentatives and the Mexican Government, it is neces-
sary not only to abide by the noble purposes for
which the coalition was formed, but to refrain from
sheltering those natives of the country who, under
foreign protection, come to conspire against the
existing order of things.
" All was in vain. The representatives of France
declared, in clear and explicit terms, that they were
resolved to continue no longer treating with the
present Government of the republic, and that, far
from withdrawing their protection from those Mexi-
cans to whom it had been offered, they would con-
tinue to extend it to them and all individuals de-
serving the confidence of the Emperor.
"Then this Count de Rene declared that as this
was a breach of the treaty, and equivalent to a
declaration of war on Mexico on the part of the
French, he was resolved to withdraw from the
country with the forces under his orders, since he
neither wanted to oppose the resolution of the
French by arms nor be a passive spectator of an
inexcusable war between them and the Mexicans.
"At the close of the conference couriers were
sent to the capital with despatches informing the
Mexican Government of the result, and General
Prim ordered his principal officers to assemble next
morning at his quarters. In the speech which ho
addressed to them he recapitulated the history of
the allied coalition, from the commencement down
to the meeting of the previous day, and his re-
marks throughout were marked with sound sense.
His allusion to the French is worth producing ver-
batim I leave them to the responsibility of this
act, upon which will soon fall the verdict of opinion
in America and in Europe, but withal, I wish them
no harm ; no, they are brave and accomplished sol-
diers; they deserve that victory should ever accom-
pany their arms. I wish them no harm, but on this
occasion they depart from the path wherein we are
proceeding, and from which we cannot deviate
without being wanting in honour. History Will
judge between them and us.'
" You have now the whole affairs in a nutshell.
The French are going to put Maximilian on the
throne, In the despatch sent by them to the capi-
tal on the 9th, they say—' The undersigned aro
sorry to learn that since the day on which agree-
ments were concluded at Soledad new vexations
have been practised on their countrymen. Under
the eyes of the undersigned violent measures have
been adopted to stifle the expression of the wishes
of the country, and of true public opinion.

" General Doblado replies to the despatch t

Go-

them for the settlement of claims, but that in
re-
gard to the French they shall be resisted till the
last extremity. President Juarez issued a mani-

French,

those who, without motive or pretext, have
violated the faith of international stipulation.'
On the other hand, the French representatives
have issued a manifesto to the Mexican people, in
which, after stating the professed object for which
the expedition was sent, war is declared in so many
plain terms against the Juarez Government. Be-
tween it (the Government) and us war is now de-
clared. Of course all good Mexicans (who wants
the bad ones ?) are called on to rally round the
French flag and give their country a stable govern-
ment, &c."
The document is dated Cordova, April 16, and
signed "A. de Saligny" and " E Jurien." Active
operations were to commence on the 20th inst.
