ding upon the subject between my predecessor
and that gentleman.
"In reply, have to inform you that have
found no papers or evidence in this department
showing any such understanding with Mr.. Marks

and Corcoran Riggs, the eminent bankers, who
have heretofore been employed in reference to the
instruments paid to that government during the
administration Of Presidents Polk and Taylor.

The Mexican Congress having finally met and
approved the arrangement made by the Executive
with the domestic creditors and Mr.. Marks, the
drafts were forwarded by a special messenger to
the Mexican minister, Mr.. De la Rosa, to be by
him presented for acceptance. Mr.. De la Rosa
was also fully authorized, on such acceptance, to
give full and valid acquittance of the treaty OBJ
legation. When the Mexican government for.
warded these drafts, it did so in confident re

MEXICAN LEGATION.

Washington, Feb. 3, 1851.
" The undersigned, Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary of the republic Of Mex
leo, has the honor of addressing himself to the
Secretary Of State for the purpose of making
known to him that be has been instructed by his
government to inform that Of the United States of
the fact that Mr.. Edmund ]. Forstall has advanced
a sum of four hundred thousand dollars to Mex
leo, which, according to agreement, must be re-
turned in full to him when the next instalment Of
the indemnity which the United States are paying
to Mexico, in pursuance Of the treaty Of Guada-
lupe, shall become due.
"The undersigned encoses herewith to the
Secretary of State a copy of the note he has re-
ceived from his government, as is shown by copy
No. 2; and another sum of one hundred thousand
dollars, as it appears from the note marked No.
3, literal copy of which he encloses to the SEQ
rotary of State. And although it is stated in the
memorandum of this last note that the sum adj
vanced is two hundred thousand dollars, the un-
dersigned believes that this amount was inserted
through mistake; and that the sum advanced
is only one hundred thousand dollars, as will be
shown by the respective certificates which the
general treasury of Mexico has no doubt given to
the party interested.
"The undersigned ayails himself of this oppor-
tunity to renew to the Secretary Of State the
assurances Of his most distinguished considera-
ton. LUIS DE LA ROSA.

man OF the COMMITTEE on FINANCE, Tor the pur-
pose of communicating, through him, to the Con-
gress Of the United States, the wishes of the
Mexican government, and the circumstances by
which it had been led, on the assurances and at
the invitation of the United States government,
to draw on it before the day Of payment, and in
a manner not expressly indicated by the treaty
On more mature reflection, however, that able
statesman and diplomatist judged, more wisely
than we, that to appeal thus from the Executive
to the Legislature would be violation of his
instructions not to do anything which could be
construed as offensive to the Secretary Of State,
and that it would moreover give Mr.. Webster an
occasion to remind him that the Secretary of
State was his proper medium Of communication
with this government, and thereby raise new
ISSUE not only to the prejudice of the measure in
question, but Of the general interests Of Mexico.
Instead therefore of seeking an interview with
the chairman of the Committee on Finance, and
communicating with Congress through him, Mr.
De Ia Rosa addressed us the following letter:
MEXICAN LEGATION IN U. s. OF THE NORTH,
Washington, January 30, 1851.
"Mr. l. ID. MARKS: / am informed by your
note of the 28th instant that Mr.. Hunter, the
chairman of the Committee on Finance Of the
Senate, wishes to know in positive manner
whether the government of Mexico considers adj
vantageous the contract made with you to advance
the sums which are to become due for the indem-
NIFTY which the United States pays to that repub-
lie! regret that cannot reply to this; but you
must know that In this, as in all other matters
OF my legation, can only communicate with the
Hon. Secretary of State / have already had
various conferences with that gentleman in rela-
ton to your contract. And understand that il
the Senate wish to know the desires of Mexico in
respect to the realization Of the said contract, the
Secretary Of State will inform them correctly of
what have made known to him on this subject.
