From the n. y. Day Dook-l
"A most dlsreptuable scheme, conspiracy in
fact, against the United States Treasury has
been ia operation for this last eighteen months,
having its headquarters in this city, with appro-
priate branches in Washington, New Orleans,
Vera Cruz, aud perhaps some other places. 1t
started in company with British holders Of Mex
icAn bonds, possibly eren that that was the prin-
cipal "intescst" at first, but that impractlcah)e
course Of the British Minister to Mexico embar-
rassed the parties, and it finally assumed the
character Of m Independent American enter
prise." The object wss to get four or five mil
lions out Of the TreasuEy-its pretence, like
that OF The lat. d.. Gardner and others, was the
destruction Of mines, and other property in
Mexieo-its means treaty With the Juazez gor-
ernment. 4 portion Of the press Of other cities
has been subsidized, while severalof the lead
liance Of the operators in this nefasious scheme
nontbs' efforts of agents at Washington, they
xnecceded in inducing the Administration to
change its policy in regard to the factions Of
Mexico, and to recognize 1uarez, Mexican mu-
1atto, three hundred miles from the capitol, With
out the archives or any document whatever con-
nected with Mexican history OF the internation-
nl affairs Of that country, Is the President OF
Mexico! How Mr.. Buchanan vas led to do
this, we cannot Imagine; the act itself, on the
surface Of things, and disconnected with IN ul-
terror design. which may, when i becomes
known, perhaps justify il, WAS rs absurd as it
would b. to recognize The Bourbons as the leg'tl-
mate rulers Of France.
Juarex, the muIatto in question, keeps up. a
sort Of government at Vera Cruz, where he
collects custom duties, and this supports him,
aud military mob that he calls bis army, alter
fashion. There are number Of chiefs who
profess To regard him as the president Of the
Republic, but each does Is be pleases, and there
are at this moment dozen different and wholly
Independent goternments in Mexico. To make
treaty with Juarez that shall recognize the
pretended claims Of certain Americans, has, as
We hare said, heen The grand scheme Of those
