eminent and people Of the United States. Every
epithet of opprobrium and disgrace has been Law
ished upon US. The representative of the Prussia,
government, who acted as umpire between the
American and Mexican commissioners, came in for
his share of these pitful calumnies, until they were
stopped by the decided tone assumed by the Prus-
sian minister at Mexico. The money which was TO
be appropriated TO the payment of the awards was
raised by a species of forced contribution, in the
most oppressive manner, in order that, with every
dollar that was paid, might be mingled some por-
ton Of exasperated feeling against the object for
which il was to be applied, and the people who
were to receive it, and when the money was thus
extorted from the Mexican people, II was diverted
from its appropriate object and either went into the
general mass Of public expenditures, contributed
to FIJI the pockets Of the unprincipled men who adj
minlstered her finances.
which has been faithless to its engagements. No
mpediment has been interposed by the omission OF
the legislature TO furnish all the means required. II
is the same department of the government which
negotiated and signed these treaties, which has, for
more than twelvemonth, failed to pay according
TO contract, and to comply with their solemn en-
gagements to make provision for the unadjusted
claims. The Texas movement is mere pretext for
this fragrant violation Of duty by Mexico. Her
perfdy and bad faith are of earlier date than any
complaint on her part growing out of Texas con.
Germs. During the entire administrations of General
jackson ana Mr. van buren, her conduct was con-
stanty denounced by our functionaries, both al
home and in Mexico, faithless, and in equal de-
fance of national law and of treaty stipuations.
These views are now thus briefly but distinctly
presented, because there seems to have been the
most extraordinary and inexcusable ignorance man
Tested on the subject, even by distinguished mem.
bers of Congress-. In the course Of our numbers
shall probably avail ourselves of the opportunity
to throw some light upon this part of the case, and
to exhibit the character of the outrages upon our cit
liens, in which the subsisting claims originated, and
the language in which they have been denounced by
every American functionary who ever had occasion
to speak Of them. c.
