ENGLAND SUGGESTS \ CRANE NATIONAL CuAlI
TloN AGAINST THE RErrrIC-A BorEHaS or
AMERICAN RoSApARTE FOR PRESIDENT.
iProm the London Times ,Cy Arc!c,> Sept. Ill
Some announcement regarding Mexico j.
awaited with general anxiety by the inercan
tile world. Il is no longer L hondhnid"r>
question. the additional interests that call for
redress being OF far greater magnitude Euro
pean capital is largely involved in the mining
industry Of Mexico, the trade III English and
French manufactured good; IS even nov i'm
porant ard should bc very extensive, and the
geographical position Of the Republic, in the
highway from East to West is so peculiar as to
have political bearing on the future Of all
commercial nations.
The fact that this region has fpr the last three
years been given over to mlsc' eantS Whose
daily atrocities exceed those pcIpctra;cd in The
widest moment Of the scpoy mntiny, %;th
the tolerance OF the civilized Powers or both
hemispherrS, constitutes chapter that will
indclibly disgrace the age; and We have nov
the additional feature that the patience Of
England unuti ;tnc murder OF her subjects
(twenty.threc OF whom are known to have hcen
killed at various times by the order or nstga
tiun of the ecclesiastical party1, the attempted
assassination Of her officers, ahd the robbery
in open daylight Of her Legation, has been
met by broad defiance, n which France Ii
included, and which ha:; ncceSsitatcd the with
drawa of the ministers of both countries. The
circumstance that the existing government Is
ru!nposed Of the enemies of the ccc,rSiasticS
makes little difference 10 the case since in their
career Of insoleHcc and plumber both parties
are alike, and to one adopts the crimes of the
otncr ny refusing to atone for tiI"uI. Il is cCr
tain tia! since England has been 4 nation she
| has never had to submit ~ siich things
Is haze been thus inflicted upon her, and
the same may auoS. be su Of France
| and Spain, since the Frc.ich traders in
Mexico are very numerous, and are lncludcd III
the cry nnw raging If ''Leath t. foreigners,
while most Dflhc native Sp.niar'i; were driven
| nut Il cS Years back by similar cry raised
by Alvarez unc Of the then partzlns OF the 50
called liberal faction Yet the cjunry Is more
accessible than any other TO coercion, since i'%
existence depends on its Communication with
the Atlantic and Pacific, which can be closed
without blow and at any moment by the na-
val powers Whenever it is desired, therefore,
to put an end to the prevailing in(amy, the
work can be done. But any movement that
may be made should be such rs TO command
, permancncc The question is at length wholly
beyond recourse to palliativcs. The British
squadron at Vera Cruz could Of course get
soH.e kind Of satisfaction on the instant, but
before six months had passed everything would
again uc as bad as ever. Our merchants do not
want itful proceeding of this kind, which
might dclude them into operations that would
suddenly result in fresh disasters. Neither
would the development Of the republic he i'll
any way assisted.
Isolated acton on the part Of England would,
in the present stage Of atiLirS, merely lead to
counter schemes by France or Spain, or the
United States, each against each, and condl-
ton would thus, even at the best, be produced
analogous to that which has paralyzed every
good step in Turkey. To accomplish all that
! is necessary 4 combination will BIZ essential.
This will take some little time, but it is scarce
| ly possible to doubt that it may be accomplish
ed to The satisfaction Of all parties. England,
| France Spain and America have each Such
strong interests in the country that it would
be difficult to say that one is more bound to
interfere than the other England can have no
motives but in connection with humanity and
commerce. Spain and France would, OF course,
desire to support the priestly party, but must
| earnestly wish to see it re.cStabllShcd on some
! f.o;;nv that should not scandalizc and hprriiy
the whole world America will doubtless bc
guided by the policy Of preventing the In'ru-
sion Of European monarchy, but will be vii
ling, perhaps, 10 aid any settlement that should
give sufficient stability to Mexico to prevent her
from falling to the Southern Confedclacy, or
from being subject Of dispute between tn" lw"
sections of the Union is case the Federal S"7.
crnmcnt should yet be preserved in her case,
| too, higher and better considerations woH'i
not bc without influence. II all could agree
upon some individual aS President for Fixed
period, who to Il certain extent would meet the
fair views Of each, the future Of Mexico might
be assured in q manner that would, with sur
prising rapidity, increase the welfare Of all
other nations. The country is not ripe I'r
! liberty, nor for entire emancipation tr"m
pricstly influence and all that is wanted i
that both its clerical and military masters
should exercise control according to the decent
conventional codes essential To every gov
| crnmenL deemed fit to be recognized as having
public existence Among the dcp1>cd
princes and other seekers for authority now
out Of heart in Europe there might, perhaps,
he found the necessary person. Don Juan
dc Bourbon, with his constitutional Professions,
might be changed, for instance in this sphere
from mischicvous ntrigucr 10 a most uscln'
potentatc. 1t would, probably, however, be
hard to satisfy America by such i selection,
and If there is H. be a permanent settlement
America must be satisfied. Unc suggestion,
under that view Of the case, has been that Mr..
Patterson Bonaparte might be selected, aS an
equal qualification both to America and France.
| The matter is so moncntous that it is worthy
of all the efforts Of diplomacy TO carry 1t to
result that will retrieve the disgrace OF the
past Great Britain and France arc alike fol-
mally pledged t9 take it III hand, and it viii
be heavy diScredit TO both if it he not
brought to happy conclusion.
