MEXICAN BOISE lIROLDERS.

The following is from the Committee of geliP'
Bondholders :
,„
ig The committee have received advices
Whitehead, dated Mexico, the 2d, sth, and 18t"Top
respectively. The first should have gone by the
clod
which was lost ; and the second would bas'ere°,,,
earlier if the steamer between Vera Cruz and 33e:esa
leans had not, without previous notice, disseelii-inir
running since the end of August. The Mexican
ether
ter of Finance had on the 29th of August called tog op,
the agents of the foreign bondholders and of the t'°. g of
tion creditors, and informed them that the exigent
nth
e oth
the public service compelled him to order for one 113000
the suspension of the payment of all assignment° °III3
Custom-house of Vera Cruz. He hoped that this sfro°ol
suspension at one port would relieve the Treasury deep
its present temporarydifficulties, and expressed the• of
mortification which he felt to be under the neeessfyted
resorting to such an expedient, even for that Tiber&
time. In Tampico, General Garza, who commands
and who had been ordered to march against (le"-
of
Vidaurri, had obtained a loan from the importerlioa
$500,000, on account of all duties payable by-tbeint ii
this without any previously obtained authority frog„"%k
Government. The last packet, if it had carried a
~,":100
can mail, would therefore only have brought Ff%
from Vera Cruz, being an instalment of the aw°o:.
taken by General Blanco in Mazatlan last 31.
and which will now come by the packet clueLoe,
let proximo. The agents in Tampico had now-$1
,b'es
and the agents in Mazatlan and Manzanillo te.tl.7--
about as much more in hand, on account of the d'''g-dellof
fund. The British Legation in Mexico, on thei; Go'
September, suspended diplomatic relations with Actual
''ltctol
vernment there on account of the Tepic affair. iirgei•
hostilities did not, however, appear to be as Yet n by
nent, and General Almonte was coming to Lend trove'
the packet now due in a few days to offer exPle°9" (the
General Tidaurri having taken possession of Saltille ;60$
capital of Coahuila) had declared against the Prfoost
Government; but had not acted very decidedly of
the Mexican Congress having sanctioned the tle`c)fites'
Coahuila and New Leon, the demur to which wes„°4 the
sibly the main ground of difference between hill b ,
central Government. A conspiracy had on the A";,,00'
September been discovered in the convent of Se°, thee;
sow° in Mexico. Nearly 200 persons marl
friars, were implicated in it, but the President heu,.-4,000
with so much prornp itude and courage on the ec;itiO'
that it was considered to have beencompletelY Aoaid
guished. On the 29th of September the term ;001
expire within which the lessees of mortmain Pit es°
were alone privileged to become buyers of it. As
ad
drawing to its close, the religious scruples which
yet held back the tenants from buying their les,7„,obri
appeared very generally to give way, and consw;
sales of such property were being made whicho-r°o
open a new resource to the Mexican finances. Genet,-
reforms were confidently expected in Mexico frore
Comonfort's Government."
