The Mexican Congress commenced IFS session on the
Isl ult. The President delivered long address as a
message
He commences by speaking OF the difficulties in which
the country is involved, and calls on Congress to use all
its efforts to them He then speaks OF the events

who sold to them his county and his conscience On
this subject he continues as follows

The President then proceeds to speak Of the Difficult
ties IN which the country involved by the failure OF
the law Of November 3oth The creditors OF the gov
eminent became urgent and clamorous in their demands,
and the diplomatic corps assumed hostile position, and
at one time the country seemed on the verge oil coils

difficulty however with the assistance and operation
of the legislature surmounted and finally the trail
tors and adventures were expelled from the Mexican
territory.

by snugglers, and the tariff at batamoros reduced to
meet the emergency the government was placed In very
embarrassing dilemma 1t had to acknowledge or dis.
own the act To do either seemed equally fatal. when
the diplomatic corps again forward and consented
