[Signed by ROMANO, Commandant General and
others.
1t is stated in private letters, that PAREDEs Ind
in fac; marched upon The Capitol at the head OF
6O0O men. and such was the temper of the public
mind against the United States and consequently
acains, HERRERA, that no doubt was entertained
of the success of the revolt. No opposition TO
the revolution whatever had as yet been developed.
From one expression contained in the manifesto.
we ufer that the American Minister, should he
have remained in the capital until its occupation
by the army of PARADEs, will not be treated with
much ceremony.
In common with all American citizens we great.
" regret this turn of affairs in Mexico. But we
only regret it because we had hoped that 1t was
possible bv n course of continued manifestations
of friendship and forbearancc, for our country at
length to break down existing PreJudIces and ac'
qurc the regard and influence which she ought to
possess in Mexico, and hence that nl danger OF
ruptures between The United States and all other
countries of America bo avoided. The success
of PAREpEs, and even adoption Of the policy
which he has marked out, would etiectualIy check
this hope, and render il necessary for the United
States at once to chastise tho inso'ence which 1t
has tried so hong to conquer by kindness. This,
as far as We have heard an opinion, Is u uni'cr'
sal sentiment.
