little additional to be byonght By the mails We eopj
from The Kerv Orleans Delta the following statemen
OF the particulars Of the negotiations Of the BrIsish nS
Mexican Governments:
| Tbs affair Of tie correspondence for the EngnSa
Legation has been settled. The Jua.ez Goysrnnena
consented to permit Capt. Adham of the valoro7s 70
take the letters as far as the Mexican lines, thence
transmit them to the capital This was accordingly
| done on the lst inst.
II appears that Lord John Russell had given positive
instructions to the En2lsh Legation as TO the ccurys
il 10 pursue in its CONNIE. icat;on with the Govern
ment at Mexico. The saisssisn Of Capt. Adham wa1
said by the Trastd Union TO have been one Of peaoe
and cancellation. shor! tina ago we published ex-
clusively the news Of the BYta b Intervention. We
have now further and interesting particulars tas
same subject Capt. Aldhan wsS the agent IN making
the comm nnications to the beig<rents but, as the
British Government had recogDhsof the authority Of
Mramon, he was compelled TO make ais oacial Prep
osens, in the first place, to that ccaa mander Never
tteless, before setting out for kiramsns camp he I'M
officially informed the Constitutional Government n
Vera Cruz of the nature of the instruct ons ransmited
TO the British legation and that hshaa received su
liar insti uctions: that before communicating with Mir
amen he desired TO ascertain what would be the optn-
ion Of the Juarez Cabinet On Interpretations u DO
submitted in accordance with Lord John Russeirs In
structions The Constitutional authorizes refused 70
make any reply to these nteIpeations saying ibss al
they could do was TO concede to Capt. Aidham the
permission he required 10 enable him 20 take the off,
cial correspondence as far as the enemys 1nes.
Capt. Afdham then go; out, and found Mranon ~
MedeIln, and explained to him the natere Of the in
sructons and proposals received from the British Gov
eminent hiramOn remarked that if the Vera Cruz
Government had any propositions 10 make it shoods
submit them, whom they would be examined and
acted on.
Capt. Aldham replied that the Constitutional Gov.
eminent had nothing whatever to do with these propo-
stons; that he came, not in the OF his Gov
eminent; that his instructions to address himself
to the Church party, and not to the Liberal party that
the Constitutional Government had limited itself 70
giving him permission TO leave the city with his Official
dispatches; that propositions for an armisee must
come, in the first place. from the Church party or the
whole negotiation must be abandoned.
Miramon then showed himself better disposed to
listen, ard asked in what manner he could transmit
propositions to the Vera Cruz authorities. Cart Aid
ham replied that this could be done by means Of flag
of truce, in accordance with the customs of war.
II was then agreedthat the next day, March 3 Mira
mon should send officer with flag of truoe, aad
accompanied by small escort, as far az MabraE,
whence, between noon and p. M, he should remit q
communication by the hands of an officer Of The gar
risop.
The rext day an officer of the General Staff was
dispatched, accompanied not by small escort but by
a guard of four hundred cavalry, MLramon himself
being with them. The Trait dUniOH charges that
this officer avaed himself of the privileges of his Do
sition to examine the defenses of the place and that
the escort advanced far that the Vera Cruz auho-
ties were obliged to order them back. The communi-
cations brought at this time addressed to Capt
Aldham. They contained Mramon's answer to Lord
John RusselPs propositions.
We give such details Of these inter-communicatons ,
at hand. confidential note of the British MIN
lister Of Foreign Affairs dated London, JAM 20 1860,
and addressed TO the Brtish Charge dAfares in Mex
leo, contains the following paragraphs. We translate
from the French: a
cher Msiesty's Government would see with satis- !,
faction an armistce for six months or year. with the
ed which might provide for the future government OF
the country. i
"Her Maesty's Government does not presume in |
any manner to prescribe the form of such govern ment
huk III shnuld he of euch stability
and order. With this view, the Executive should
have character of permanepce.
GA general amnesty ehould be decreed, and civil !
and religious liberation should be proclaimed became
IT is only through concessions by each of the par
ties to the contestant the reestabshment of peace
be hoped for.
"If this advice offered for the good Of Mexico b.
not accepted her Britannia Maesty's Government
win have other resource than 10 demand from the
two parties reparation commensurate with the injuries
suffered by British subjects.
"You will read this dispatch, and deposit copy
with the Minister of Relations, communicating it like
wise TO Capt. Adham, for the Government at Vsrs
Cruz, and you will take measures to transmit to that
officer all propositions which the Central Government
nav have 10 make with view TO an &C accommodation.
IThis dispatch was commenced before the Message J
of the President of the United States arrived here
The President proposes TO depart from the Established
policy of the United States with view OF giSuz the
Liberal party, under NJ. Juarez, triumph over the !,
Church party, under Gen. Miramon. But her Ma].s .
tvs Government has hope of seeing peace reestab-
hed by the triumph through forcibe means, OF either
of the two parties. l have the honor, &C.,
John RUSSELL
The Trait d. Union says that moth Notwithstanding what
Lord John Russell says about the time when the ds-
patch was commenced, il has reason TO believe that
President Buchanans Message was in fact, the caase
of the dispatch being written and sent.
Mramon replies that he has maturely reflected On
the propositions submitted; that he deeply regrets ne
unhappy events sprngng from the civil war especay
in regard to the subjects OF friendly nations; ne
thanks the Brsh Government for s efforts TO estao-
lish peace in the Republc he thinks, with the British
Government that peace cannot be reestablished by
