poEant and interesting information tho relations

Arsa had the 10th Of April after the rejection the
Tehuaatapeo treaty addressed letter to President Fill
more stating Ill the facts Of the difficulty regards
the position assumed BY Mr. Letcher the American Minis
Ter who informed long before the treaty rejected

Congress In favor Of It, But it intimated to him that

Company they would to press the Garay grant
claim - claim which the Mexican people were
unanimously opposed to, tho ground not only
Of its expiration. but that it was obtained by
bribery, and conveyed vast quantity Of land-ten
leagues both sides Of tho roadfor the purpose of col
cnisa&icn.
Mr.. Letcher wrcto to Mr.. Benjamin. the President Of
the Tehuantepcc Company, requesting him come to
Mexico and try and arrange the matter BY abandoning
the Garay grant, and accepting grant right Of
way alone: But Mr.. Benjamin did not go.
The Tehuantepec treaty was rejected by the Mexican
Congress- with but two dissentient votes Immediately
thercupen Mr. Letcher addressed the Mexican govern
ment the ultmatum Of the government OF the United
Sta which declared that the Tehuantepec treaty re-
cosnsng the validity Of the Garay grant, must b
hrmed BY tho Mexican government. No other arrange
ment would fue . nomsnt bs Listened to. @

knowiedges the weakness Of Mexico and the greatness
OF the United States and makes touching appeal to
the magnAnimity Of great nation not to force wrong
upon weak people. He declares there must be some
mysterious influence which induces the United States to
endeavor to force Mexico to raty treaty revivng
defunct grant, He says that the and people
Of Mexico have every desire to throw open the rehuan
tepec communication instances the fact that the day
previous to his writing bill had been introduced into
tho Mexican Congress authorizing the Of
Ser the right way the Ishmus to any company
which would build road but for the Garay grant, It
would be recognised the United States forced
upon Mexico the full extent Of the threat contained In
