huantepec Companys steamer United States, which
left New Orleans for Mnatitlan the 9Th inst,
compelled TO take her departure without clearance
from the Mexican Consul The grounds OF the
fua are, according to the P'caytme, that MInatI,lan
IS not port OF entry, and moreover, that the Consul
had special orders from his Government to refuse a
clearance to any American vessel destined Tor the
Ishmus When the Company informed Of tho
refusal Of the Consul 10 clear the vessel formal
protest was immediately entered, setting forth the
facts Of the application and refusal OF the Consul
and stating the reasons which Influenced the tOinpa-
