WASHINGTON, Feb. :, 1853.
The Mexican is very encouraging. The
British and French Admirals before Vera Cruz
have receded from their demand that the former
tariff shall be restored and do not seem to be
ing their demand for the removal of the Governor
of Tamanpas Thus, it appears, they do not per-
sst in intervention in the internal policy of the
country, and their presence in the Gulf is deprived
of its recent offensive aspect The demand for the
removal of Governor CARA certainly was rdicu-
lous affa IT. about as much so as would be demand
of the Governor of New York that he should re-
move the Governor of Maryand, and quite akn
indeed, to that very proposition.
very general error prevails that MIRAMoN is
son-in-law to ZULoAGA,-and upon this false suppo
stion is the theory erected which ascribes MIRA
MON the purpose of refusing the Presidency offered
him under the RoBLEs Convention with a view to
the restoration of ZULoAGA. The facts are that
there is bitter feud between the families of ZuL-
oAGA and MIRAMoN,-that when MnAMoS made
his first public declaration for ZCLoAGA, and
against the RoBIEs programme, he was not vet
that he had himself been elevated to the
Presidency under the latter. He is now merely
coquettlng,-using the ZULoAGA influence in the
one hand, to bind the Church party more closely
to his own fortunes; and the other, shaking off
Senior RoBLEs, so as not to be held responsible for
his weaknesses, nor under obligations to rewar
him in the future. Soon as the young General
has accomplished these purposes and sees the pos
sibity of welding anything more than barren
sceptre, he will step into the Executive Chair, be-
yond a doubt.
The Liberals continue to maintain their ground
with frmness and dignity, and are acquiring grad
ually the needed arms and ammunition with which
to force their way into the Capital Hon. WIN. NJ.
CHURcHwELL, of Tennessee, was sent out to Vera
Cruz some weeks ago by Mr.. BUCHANAN, as a secret
agent to inquire into the condition of the country
the relative strength of parties, and probable abi-
ty of either to sustain itself if recognized by the
United States, and to carry out treaty with US if
will be received BY the next sfdamtP kPdf, afPQGt
at New Orleans within a week-and that it will be
followed bg the almost immediate recogni ton of
the JUAREz Government, and the conclusion of a
treaty here in Washington, the points of which
have long since been unoffically arranged.
Minister Forsyth yesterday formally resigned his
commission as Minister to Mexico. This case is
without parallel in our history. The President
disposed to recall Mr.. F. long ago. but did not
do so, because his Senatorial brother-iu law, Mr.
lvERsoN of Ga, would not consent to his sacrifice,
and Mr.. BUCHANAN hestated to incur his displea-
sure. Subsequently, after the difficulty about the
forced loans, he directed Mr.. F. to withdraw his
Legation and come home, which he did. Subse-
quently, in his annual message, Mr. BUCHANAN fully
endorsed Mr.. F.'s official course, but referred to
him as "our late Minister to Mexico" Mr.. For
sYTH however, refused to accept this ingenious
hint that his commission vacated, and insisted
that the President should take the responsibility of
specifically removing him, after endorsing his
course, or permit him to return to Mexico when
latter Mr.. f. exceedingly DESTROYS of doing, in
order to sgnalize his mission by the conclusion of
good treaty, and also because he deemed it neces-
sary for his vindication from charges circula-
ted by his enemies, affecting his personal integrity
The President refused either of the alternatives
until Mr.. F. Yesterday resigned, having until then
been continually recognized Minister by the SEC
RETARY of STATE, even since his indirect repudia-
ton by the PRESIDENT.
paragraph is going the rounds which con-
POUNDS some fllibuster scheme of the notorious Col
LocKRIDGE with tie Arizona, Central American
and Mexican Colonization enterprise with which
Gen. HENNINGsEN is connected. This is altogether
erroneous. The HENNINGsEN project is that of a
company of wealthy and influential gentlemen, who
have embarked large capital in the enterprise, and
will undoubtedly carry it to successful termination
while the LocKRIDdE affair is the scheme of an
adventurer, without means or influence The HEN
NINGsEN Company is so arranged that while the
capitalists furnish money, other members furnish
their individual services, and in this way COM
pany of some seven hundred colonists ali bold en-
terprising and ardent young has been formed
and ready to march for the scene of their abors
early in the spring.
