CHICAGO, November 1S.-Gen. .Logan's
intention is to make his future home in
Chicago. He viii. not accept the appoint
ment as Minister TO Mexico, at least for the
present. he has had no word from Presl.
dent johnson since he was Damed for the
place, and he regards his appointment as
simply marked demonstration in favor OF
the Liberal cause, and not made with the
intent of having him proceed to Mexico to
fill the duties of his mission. ,
WASHINGTON, November 10, 1865
The reason why General Logan has not &C.
cepted the Mexican mission was because
the Government would not assure him that
our policy toward Mexico would be changed.
Designing politicians who could make some
thing handsome out of the Jurarist Loan,
have been trying for two weeks to place
the Government in a position in which We
could not help openly espousing the Jurarist
cause in Mexico, even to the extent of wal
with France. General Logan's appointment
was the first step, but Mr.. Stewards adroit-
ness turned that weapon against them, as
explained in former dispatch. The friends
of the Liberal cause here are greatly de.
pressed at the unexpected denouement OF
this appointment.
All the recent movements of the Federal
troops near the Rio Grande were made in
pursuance Of orders to prevent violations Of
the neutrality laws The dismantling Of
the forts here, and the recent large reduc-
ton made in our naval force, are regarded
as strong proofs that the Government does
not intend to engage in war with any for.
eign Power. General Logan is expected
here, when efforts will be made to induce
him to accept and 90 to the frontier, to take
advantage Of whatever contingencies may
occur. E :>7 80
The New York correspondent of the
Philadelphia Ledger speculates in the fol.
lowing style in regard to the appointment
of Gen: Logan as Minister to Mexico: -
."Wbat the does the appointment of Gen.
Logan as Minister to the practically defunct
Republic of Mexico mean ?' was the .ques-
ton put this morning on Change, to "a prom
inent politician, just arrived from Wash
ington, and whose relations With the State
Department, if not with the While House.
are known to be of the most intimate char.
acter. The answer was
"It means that we shall have to recog
nize the Empire in less than thirty days
from date. Logan will go out accredited
to Juarez, but he will never discover him
nor his capital, and so be will forthwith re.
port to Washington. The President will
accept this as official proof that the Repub.
lie is dead, and Congress, accordingly, will
be notified Of the fact, with the recommeu-
dation that We recognize Macmillan. And
the ultimate result of it all will be, that
Gen. Logan will eventually turn up in the
City of Mexico as Minister from the Uni.
ted States"
give you this for what it is worth. The
party advancing it, I repeat is in position
to know something of the subject of what
be speaks. Intelligent men, who are close
watchers of public. events, are inclined to
think that it is the real key to the Logan
appointment, and I knoD that parties who
have large peouniary GmperiaD interests
in the Vera Cruz steamers entertain the
same belief, and are jubilant accordingly.
