The interest manifested by m0ny persons or calling
at hi Consulate aud their evident soci.udc in regard
to news from Mexico arising from their desire 10 see
reate established in that republic where they are
anxious TO tako Tier families and settle thomselyc-
ToImaEently, induce me to communicate t. them,
briefly through the columns OF your esteemed journal
the information received by the United States steamer
Teunoefec Which arrived al this port few days since.
From this information the strongest presumption aiIscs
that tie long lsifed moment j. abOut TO be realized,
and that very soon that country, favored by nature,
will o'cf TO thote who desire 10 settle in II those
guaIGntics Of der and quictute necessary 10 the
dcyelol IltDt Of It's property snd ereanefs.
Ii IL wen known that the war, which Tor three years
has laid ase the country has had for is object on
IRE Fart OF the liberal party the securing of these
GUARANTEES which, well the enjoyment OF civil,
Iona ami religious liberty, the Constitution oi ~
had indeed granted to all foreigners well "a na'lycs.
Their eners opIose reform and contend for tie pre-
eryaton of ancient abuses in which are particularly
interested the clergy, tie army, few large roprie-
torr AID spectators, not Ill heXicans, who en-
rich themselves under their protection. The struggle
appears 10 have come 20 an end In accordance with
reason and Justice represented by the great liberal
mas.es OF the nation. Let hope that the saciieef
Wild have been made and TIE blood which b. been
shtd viii not prove frplteGs and that The Mexican
PEOPLE TAUGHT by the painful experience which they
have unde gone VIII prove 10 the wCrd, by their prl-
dence and sound Judgment, how much they have de-
served ;he sympathy which their mforiunes have in
epired and hat they may still BE- entitled Ia coDsdor-
ton and esteem, though they may have been regarded
b. some az an uncivized and unchiisiian people.
The following il short compendium of the news
brought BY the Tennessee preceded by brief account
of anterior events, which deeu necessary for the
better comprehension OF the subject, emitting commcn-
taries or reflections
After tie defeat Of the reacionaiy army, under the
command OF Don Miguel MiFanon, near Silao, in the
month Of September las, The whole country between
the two eeaf and ar far the Snc.ican frontier
on The nOrh recognized The authority Of he Consu
lional Government with the exception Of TIC City Of
Guadalaisrs, the second in the Republic, which, with
a s,iong and wcsupplicd garrison, still h h 10y
Generals Castillo and VOL In consequence, also Of
that defeat rhe eastern diyision under the command Of
Don Miguel Robes evacuated the citigs Of Coriova
JalsIa, and OriEnba, and concentrated in Mexico
where, glsO. the garrison Of IuEuCngo, Paohuca
ToluCa aud tuerDaVaCsI, were ordered 10 repair; g.
that there now remained under the control of Airsmou
only the Capilal, Pucbla, and Guadlaara. Tie last
named city has been taken andis defender have since
Joined the ibeialaImy their iorlneroppon Follow
ing their example the forces that under the command
of Gen Marquee lad 10 their relief fnia the City
Of Mexico after bong defeated likewise enrolled them

that ciy was without defnse il has probably already
spronOIncCd in favor Of the Constitutions; al all events
il can offer 10 resistance in case o. an attack Ii il not
neccesyy IN this short SUMMARY 70 give the details of
the military operations which have brought about these
results. What has been said il sufficient explain he
pOition If the contcndng parties at te present time
and, consequently, the situation Of the county.
From all this il il plain that the reign Of tho reaction
has ended and that the of peace and happiness for
Mexico has arrived; for II u lot probable shat the
great dcieures prepared in the capital will ever BE- put
TO the test we'll account OF public opinion which
condemns them without distinction OF party also on
account of detection and Generalization o. The troops
destined 10 use item. Furthermore, il Is known al
most certainty that Mirhmon, imitation OF
biz predecessor more capable more entitled and pos
seescd Of greater power, bas everything prepared to
e.abie him 70 dapTtar from the scene Of action when
leas, suspected. Should any one doubt IT, it j. only ne
cersry in order TO be convinced 0f the truth TO read
the manifesto which las jus boon pulished 30 the na-
ton hc City Of Mexico, in which he socmuly pro-
tests hn, he will bury hnse under the walls Of the
capital sooner than give up Sometimes, one
anxious 10 prove proposition says sufficient 10 dis-
prove II.
believe, therefore, that the moment haa arrived for
thOso who desire to egrate ~ Mexico 20 prepare I'M
mediaely for the undertaking, with the full assurance
that there they will be remuneaiod with interest for
any sacrifice they may have 70 made, doubling in
short imo the capital they take with them. 10 speak
now Of the wealth of that almost virgin country, Of
Mexican society and character of the people their
different pursuits, seems 10 entirely nnncco ssary.
All who 10 will find there the they leave here,
and without offending the most susceptible, may say
further that they will find hc-li'Oliiy and GuiaLty
such az is found among the McAicaus Ilone. OF this
truth all unpIeiudiced and impartial foreigners who
have studied tho country can give their testimony.
Trusting, M,ssTs Editors, that you will grant me
the favor 10 give publicity 70 this communication in
your widely circulated and much-erteemed paper, re-
main, very lectlully your obedient ferNsnl,
