A British Subjects Appeal to the Herald.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK HERALD
SAN LUIS PorosI, Mexico, May IS, 1859.
In consequence Of the influence exercised London to
silence the London press matters relating to this
try, when publicity is likely to interfere with their own
plans, the British residents in the republic of Mexcs
have been unsuccessful in calling the attention OF their
fellow counryen at homo TO the wrongs and outrsges
to wheh they have been subjected. In the OF
all, and especially the British residents Of San Luis
Pososi have to ask Of you that you will give the
Of the columns OF the HERALD tina. the people Of England
rs well as the people Of the United States may koow
deporabe and neglected condition. We fully
that the HERALD is, as it always has been, the moot
liable champion in the defence OF foreign residents in the
Spanish Americas and as the Of British residents in
Mexico has been with little variation the OF American
residents feel assured you will give helping hand.
Already you have published particulars Of the outrsges
perpetraied upon Messrs Ptlman and Davis two English
merchants Of this city, by Mramon, because they would
not pay largo sums Of money to him at his bidding
They forced into the ranks with sodiersf
and submitted 10 other ndignities which was as much
as Apgo.Soxcn spirit could endure without breaking
loose with terrible act or vengeance upon their
cous prosecutor. For this infamy tue British govern
ment ct 10 demand the desttution Of Mira.
mon from the army. But when this demand
for redress reached the British Legation in tae
capital, hiramon had Increased in importance
and had become indispensable TO the clergy which
deemed sufficient reason by her Msjesys Minister, Nc
Otway to compromise the matter with the clergy and he
accepted compact the resundDg OF the money
taken and 5oO damages for the gross insults offered By
this compact Mramon was a5soved from the charge
made against him OF having committed vlanous piece
OF bIRandage and him in the capital play
the role Of President OF the Mexican republic,
lodged by her Majesty's Minister.

from Mr. Newali, and give him an indemnity Of $780,
