Please 10 publish the
following note, addressed
TO DON LOUIS DE ON!S,
Minister PienpOtentiaIy Qfhis CathoLcna-
jssty, near tie gooc,1lment Of tie United
Suites.
SIR,
Inthedplomatic correspondence
between you and the honorable secreta-
ry of state OF The United States, find
you have made very honorable mention
OF my name therefore take the earliest
opportunity TO return you my most sim
cere thanks there are two points, howe
yer, iii your communications, which beg
leave TO explain, and that explanation i
give with the more pleasure, because it
Will probably render you respectful to
the government of tue United States, and
may even spare you an unnecessary en-
bdrraSsment at Onr next interview. You
have attempted, Sir, 10 cast shade OH the
administration by your simple assertion,
that | was concerned with the revo-
lutionary party at 81. Antonio de Bex-
ar; this statement is altogether, and must
be wiifully incorrect, since it is a fact
OF Dotoriety, that on my passage to the
interior provinces of Mexico (being then
on a mission under the authority Of
the government | was detained a pri-
soner three DAYS at the river Trinity.
by the Patriots, and the flag of the
United States, my companions, aud e.
ven my servants, were taken from me.
and ! was compelled TO pass through
wilderness of near 400 miles alone aud
aver, that | was not directly or Indirect
~ concerned with that army; although,
sir, assure you, had not been in the
service ofmy own country, would most
cheeriuliy have been one of the party.
As it regards the second point, in
which you observe that | was concerned
IN the murder Of fourte DSpanish officers
suffer me 10 inform you, sir, that | was
in Orleans, on my way to Washington CT
ty, when that dreadful outrage was com.
mitted. ! was personally acquainted, sir,
with all those officers, and the most of
them we're gentlemen of honour and
worth, withthe unfortunate governor Her
Tera had been intimate for many years !;
and, sir, any but an iliberal Spaniard
may judge Of my friendship for that ami
able soldier, when | state, that my son
has borne his name for more than Ten
years no one can deplore with more sen
sibility than myself, that horrid assassi-
nation hut, sir, by whom was it perpe-
tratcd Was it by Americans? No, sir,
II was by the secret order Of the cOmman-
der in chief, a Creole Spaniard, who pos
sessed 40 other feeling or sentiment than
that which IS common 10 every native of
that country il was a feeling, sir, which
has arisen from thirty years Of dreadful
sery!tude, and it il 10 sense Of that in
jury, that Mexico will sooner or later
owe her independence.
shall now add, by way Of concluding
this note, that as your language, sir, is
extremely indecorous, shall not descend
from the dignity Of an American and an
officer Of the Mexican republic, TO an
