conditions of the Mexican people, could but pro
duce the deepest disorganisation of the country and
the most complete confusion." Hence so much
disorder, so many insurgent movements,
so much bloodshed, so many revolutions.
Hine illce laehrynu e ! Hence the southward
swelling of the American boundary line,
and the absorption of the whole gold bearing
regions of California! Hence the two antagonistic
forces here at Vera Cruz, there at Mexico—yonder
under JUAREZ—yonder under MIRAMON. " What,"
then asks the Mexican mournfully, after reviewing
all this—" What has been the consequence ?"
Note every syllable of his impressive answer—
" That the hopes and wishes of the United States
have been realised to their utmost satisfaction.
From that year," he goes on to say, " up to the
present time, Mexico has offered nothing but a long
series of revolutions, of disturbances, of pronuncia-
mentos of all sorts and under a thousand pretences.
At very rare periods and for a short time these
troubles have appeared to subside, and hopes
were entertained of a beginning of peace and
progress, but anarchy soon awoke more hideous
than ever, corrupting and demoralising every man
and increasing more and more its proselytes, to
whom it offers many and very great personal ad-
vantages. Thus it is that the anarchical party, the
party created and nourished by the United States,
the party on which they reckon to aid and assist
their views of absorption of the Mexican territory,.
the party which declares itself always faithful to
American institutions and gives itself out as the
Liberal party, but which is nothing but the tool of
Ambition, has increased to a formidable extent.
Nominally the Constitution ruled from 1824 to 1853,
and from 1855 to 1857, when its advocates, attribut-
ing its former failures to its not being demagogical
enough, framed another, which was found to be so
utterly impracticable by General COMONFORT, the
very President elected according to its provisions
that in December, 1857, he laid it aside, and un-
ceremoniously shut the doors of the Constitutional
Congress. These circumstances gave birth to the go-
vernment established in Mexico, in Jan.,1858, under
Gen. ZULOAGA, and subsequently continued under
Gen. MIRAMON, with the sanction of one of the
most respectable assemblies that has ever met in
Mexico. COMONFORT left the country, and JUAREZ,
who, as presiding judge of the High Court of Jus-
tice, had, according to the new framed constitution,
to assume provisionally the presidency of the
republic in the absence of the President, left the
capital ; and after wandering unsuccessfully about
the country, arrived at Vera Cruz, where he lost
no time in starting his constitutional government
against the government of Mexico. Nevertheless,
the members of the Congress have not joined
JUAREZ at that port, nor has JUAREZ convoked
them there." The picture thus presented to view
is complete: It needs not one touch to bring it out
more forcibly and more impressively to general
contemplation. It presents to view a spectacle of
diplomatic criminality on the part of the United
States, which, if not crying to Heaven for ven-
geance, demands urgently, strenuously, to our
thinking imperatively and irresistibly, the interpo-
sition at last of other honourable, neutral, and
thoroughly independent Governments.
