Letter from Secretary serard TO General
Banks.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.
The following from Secretary Seward to
Maj. Gen. Banks will be found of interest:
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
Washington, ID. c., May 25d, 1868.
General FL have received and have SUBJ
mitted to the President your three dispatches
of the 9th, It'll and 9th respectively. have
great pleasure in congratulating you on your
successful landing and occupation upon the
Rio Grande, which is all the more gratifying
because II was effected at a moment OF appar-
emily critical interest in the national cause.
You have already found that the confusion
resulting from civil strife and foreign war in
Mexico offers seductions for military enter
prise. have therefore to inform you of the
exact condition of our relations towards that
Republic at the present time. We are on
terms OF amity and friendship, and maintain
ing diplomatic relations with the Republic of
Mexico. We regard that country as the thea
tire of foreign war mingled with civil strife
In this conflict we take no part, and on the
contrary we practice absolute non-interven-
tion and non-nterference.
In command Of the frontier, It will devolve
on yon,a far as practicable consistently with
your other functions, to prevent aid or sup
plies being given from the United States to
either belligerents. You will defend the Unit
ed States In Texas against any enemy you
may encounter there, whether domestic or
foreign. Nevertheless, you will not enter any
port of Mexico unless it be temporarily, and
then clearly necessary for the protection of
your own lives against aggression from the
Mexican border. You can assume no author
ity in Mexico to protect the citizens of the
United States there, much less to redress the
wrongs or injuries committed against the
United States or their citizens, whether those
wrongs or injuries were committed On our
side of the border or the other.
II Consuls find their positions unsafe on the
Mexican side of the border, let them leave the
country rather than invoke the protection of
your arms. These directions result from the
determination of the President 10 avoid any
departure from lawful neutrality and any un-
necessary and unlawful enlargement of the
present field of war; but at the same time you
will be expected to observe military and polit-
zeal events as they occur in Mexico, and to
communicate all that shall be important for
this Government to understand concerning
them. 1t is hardly necessary TO say that any
suggestions you may think proper to give for
the guidance OF the Government in its rela-
tons towards Mexico, will be considered with
that profound respect which is always paid to
the opinions which you express.
In making this communication, 1 have en-
deavored to avoid entering into the sphere of
your military operations, and to confinc my
self simply TO that in which yon are in con-
tact with the political movements now going
on in Mexico.
| am, General, your obedent servant,
(Signed) WM. II. SEWARD.
To Maj. Gen. Banks, commanding Depart
ment Of the Gull, Brownsville, Texas.

MISUNDERSTANDING the storm last

Observation-Disclosures the storm last
evening, there was a very large audience at
Deerins Hall to witness the second represen-
tation Of the play OF "yhc Ticket of Leave
Man." There was not SO much delay between
the acts as on the opening night, and the play
was enthusiastically applauded. The actors
were perfect in their parts and there was no
hitch in the performance. We do not wonder
at the popularity this new drama has obtained
wherever 1t has been performed. 1t has
drawn large audiences, night after flight, In
New York and Boston, and so it will here. 1t
will be performed here but three nights longer,
rs the company leave the city Saturday. We
advise all who have not witnessed it not to lose
the present opportunity.
