while We regard the rights Of others. II is quite
possible that the divisions of opinions in our country,
which have accompanied its discussion, may have
furnished to the Mexican government motive for
requiring army TO retire to the of the Nueces
For certain it is that this limit is an American aud
not Mexican suggestion. But however tins NAV
have been, it came too late To withdraw, when
required to do so by the Mexican General, accompa-
MED with threats Of immediate hostility should the
proposition be declined, and fixing the period of
twenty-foir hours the term for Its consideration
would have furnished the honor of our arms and
disgraced US iii the eyes of the world. When an
American General stops even 10 consider such an
