Especial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune
WASHINGTON, May 2s, 1861
Mr Allen, our Consul st Menatit1an, bearer
of CorTiu's last treaty with Mexico, By which
the United States agrees to loan $40, ,0oo, 900,
in instAllment=, secured by mortgage Of
Church property, &c, to be sold from time
10 time to satisfy the debt, confirms the prob
ability of the French marching successfully to
the City of Mexico. There are only seven
thousand troops. but they: -:ic flower Of
Napoleon's army, veterans who have seen
service in The Cdmea and in Africa. When
they have arrived at the Mexican capital, their
troubles will begin, but they will be heavily
reinforced, Narotron's agents declaring that
sixty or seventy thousand men will be sent if
need be. A[r. Allen believes that there is s.
close connection between the French and the
rcbe1E, and confirms the truth of the report
that tic latter arc operating for the possession
OF the States of Sonora and Chiharahua where
there are mines richer than those OF California.
He urges the importance Of the United States
stationing vessels Of var off Guagmas, and
landing troops from California, there to CROSS
into Arizona, We having tie right Of trains for
men and Inapisions Of war under the treaty
negotiated some months ago By Corwin. j.
Senators, IN an interview with Mr. Lincoln,
have urged tae importance Of this movement.
The conquest Of Sonura, Chihushua, and
| Lower California, by rebels, would strengthen
their cause immensely, and give them the
Pacific States.
