from proclamation Of the regency oil MEXICO

" The sovereign junta has ordained the ihstaiia'

intelligence necessary to establish constitution
suited TO the circumstances OF the empire, where
the Legislative power is confided to national re-
presentation, in order that may be Justly SAID that
the resolutions of the congress- and the constitution
they establish is the Legitimate expression Oh the
will of the inhabitants of this empire.
Exercise, therefore, citizens, the noble Right oil
suffrage to which the regency invite you. kemem-
Der that the object of assembling this congress is,
that it should proceed to perfect and consolidate
constitution, suited to The independence OF the ma
ton, which will discuss calculated to give
stabilityto the empire, to secure IFS happiness and
TO promote its glory. This 10 the plan oil this great
work"
