TILE MEXICAN EXPEDITION.

"The following," says the Patrie, "are said to
be the principal clauses of the convention entered
into relative to the affairs of Mexico :—The three
Powers are entitled to have an equal naval force; the
number of troops will be in proportion to the sub-
jects which each Power may have in Mexico, and in
that respect Spain stands first. The troops are to
occupy Vera Cruz and the other towns on the coasts
where custom-houses are established. If, after a
stipulated delay, the Government of President
Jaurez has not paid the sums which he owes, the
expedition will march on the capital, and if that
measure should lead to unforeseen complications, an
understanding will be come to in common as to the
course to be pursued." The Debats gives the fol-
lowing additional details:—" The convention con-
sists, it is said, of only five or six articles. The first
stipulates the common action of the three Powers,
and the others regulate the mode of intervention,
and declare that the naval force of each Power shall
be the same, but that two-thirds of the land forces
shall be Spanish troops from Cuba. The united
forces, after occupying Vera Cruz, and all other
places on the coast which they may think suitable,
are to address their demands to the constituted au.
thorities of Mexico. If those demands are granted
the chiefs of the different corps are to submit the
convention which will have to be drawn up to their
Governments for ratification, and in the jneantime
will remain in the places taken. The occupation is
to be made in the name of the three Powers, what-
ever may be the number of the occupying force.
Immediately on their arrival, the expeditionary
forces are to endeavour to impose a suspension of
arms on the belligerent parties in Mexico. The
three Powers undertake not to occupy permanentiy
any part of the territory of Mexico, and not to ob-
tain any exclusive advantage in that country. They
also undertake to leave Mexico entirely free to
choose her own form of Government. England has
renounced the stipulation which she wished to have
inserted in the treaty to the effect that the three
nations should bind themselves not to accept the
throne of Mexico for any of the Princes of their
reigning families. If, however, the monarchical
form should prevail, the three Powers undertake
not to employ their intervention for the advantage
of any prince in particular." A letter from Brest
states that Colonel Hennique, of the Marines, is
appointed to command the expeditionary corps to
Mexico, with Lieutenant-Colonel Charvet under
him. The Marines will consist of two battalions,
under M. d'Arbaud and M. Campion. The Artillery
will consist of a battery of 4-pounder rifled guns;
The officers and soldiers are to be taken from Mar-
tinique and the guns from France. All who are to
take part in this expedition are ready to embark
immediately.

PREPARATIONS FOR AN EXPEDITION

FROM GENOA.

The Nord, of yesterday, has the following letter
from Genoa, dated the 30th ult.:—

" For the last five or six weeks our city has been
a veritable tower of Babe]. We hear all sorts of
languages, and meet the most oddly-contrast©d
figures. Magyars, Poles, Serbs, Croat, Dalmatians,
and even Montenegrins amuse the Genoese by their
Dialects and the odd cut of their clothes. More-
over, not the least numerous are Austrian deserters
in uniform. All this pell-mell of nationalities, so
confused in appearance, is in reality disciplined
and organised by the care of Kossuth, Klapka,
Mieroslawski, apd Bixio, who are very active here.

" The journals have already announced that
Garibaldi intends to try a new expedition in Monte-
negro, that is to say, to send there a Sclave legion,
under the command of Louis Mieroslawski. In
truth, this plan is here one of public notoriety—
everybody speaks of it. One has only to visit cer-
tain cafes or restaurants, frequented by the staff of
the Sclave legion, to hear—provided he understands
the Sclave language—things truly surprising, and
details so precise as to leave no doubt. You may,
then, consider the following communication as
positive :—Mieroslawski has received from Gari-
baldi authority to form a Sclave Legion, composed
of Poles, Bohemians, Sclavonians, Serbs, Croats,
Dalmatians, and Montenegrins. At the present
moment there are at Genoa more than 200 Poles
belonging to the young emigration,' which Mieros-
lawski has brought together from Paris, Naples,te
and Turin. Another hundred is composed of h
different Sclave tribes before mentioned ; and then
there are from 100 to 150 Magyars, who
are placed under the special direction of MM.
Kossuth and Klapka. Certain political even-
tualities
tghaerymgartoeanktienne awaited before putting the
project in execution. In the event of affairs
gand.neacimsiavkeintugrnp,raogrreosfa
andthe pro-
voking in
nesHt outn
national manifestations on the part of the
Serbs and other Turco-Sclave peoples, the expedi-
tion will leave immediately. It is generally
believed that the point of dis-embarkation will be
between Spiza and Breano—small ports a short
distance from Antivari and Ragusa. They will
proceed from the first point towards Trebigne and
lilobuk to aid the Montenegrin insurgents encamped
between Korianic and Niksik, where they have had
several victorious combats with the Turks. Should
the Montenegrins experience some defeats before
the disembarkation of the expedition, the latter
will select for its line of operations the route be-
tween Antivari and Niegusi and Cettigue, a move-
ment which will allow the Sclave legion to reinforce
the Montenegrins by the shortest road. They will
then cross the frontiers of Montenegro to spread
the movement, with the aid of the Serbo-Wal
lachian government, in all the Sclave provinces of
Turkey, and thence to Hungary and Gallicia."

THE PRIVATEER SUMPTER.—The Brazil Mail
steamer Tyne, which has just arrived home, brought word
Ihat Ihe Confederate privateer Sumpter had put into Ma-
ranham, in Brazil, for coal and provisions, all of which had
been provided by the inhabitants with alacrity. After thJ
officers and crew had been feted by the Maranhamese, the
Sumter left, and within 37 hours afterwards the Federal
,man-of-war Powhattan put into Marnhain hi gouda of her.
