MAYoRALTY OF New ORLEANS, !
October 8, 1852.
Sir-I hasten to acknowledge the receipt of
your communication of this day, which was
placed in my possession at o'clock this after
noon You state in your letter that you have
ascertained from various sources entitled TO
credit, that it is the intention of some evil DIS
posed persons! to make an attack tonight or,
tomorrow morning on the newspaper establish
ment Ell Peiayo, and you appeal to me TO use
my exertions to protect the office and its pro-
prietors from injury.
To such an appeal ! shall never turn q deaf
hearing, considering as l do that the mainte-
nance of good order is especially entrusted to
the Mayor, and have therefore issued the me-
cessary orders to the police to keep sharp
watch and to put down the slightest attempt at
disturbance whenever it may manifest itself.
But whilst disposed to avail myself Of all the
authority placed at my disposal, for the preser-
walton Of the public peace, must take the lib
erty of adding that the efficiency of the Execu-
tive should not be constantly and continually
impaired by the publication of articles of q
nature calculated in SO great degree to arouse
the sensibilities Of our population, and which
have of late diurnally appeared in the columns
of the paper for which you claim the protection
of the law
Permit me to add, that do not say this with
the view of shrinking from any responsibility in
the premises, but the representative Of Her
Catholic Majesty must be fully aware Of the
fact that the Peiayo is in the habit of employ
ing language, which, if made use of by an
American citizen in the colonial possessions OF
Her Majesty, would in all probability consign
| him to punishment unknown in this country.
| have the honor to be, with great respect,
| your obedient servant,
| (Signed) A. D. CRossMAN, Mayor.
I j. Y. Laborde Rueda, Esq, Consul of Her
Catholic Majesty Of Spain, New Orleans.
