FROM MEXICO.

New YORK. Oct 10.-The Mexican Consul,
Gen. Lenor Navarro has sent the following
note to the Associated Press:
New YORK, Oct 10, 1866.
To the Agent A associated Press, Ne,c York:
, DEAR SIR: Permit me through your efficient
and reliable Agency to again contradict the re-
port that President Juarez has left the territory
of the Mexican Republic. The statement to
that effect by the correspondent of the Phila.
delphia Press, published in the papers here this
morning, is q pure and unmitigated' falsehood,
and only adds another proof to the many we
already have of the INSCRIPTIONS character of
the Agents and of the means they employ to
support their unholy cause.
am in possession of official dates from Ell
Pase to Sept. 8, five days later than the date of
the letter Of the correspondent of the Philadel-
Phia Press, and can aver that not only has
Port Juarez never had the slightest intention of
leaving the territory of the Republic, and that
there is no occasion for his doing so. I am
sure that 30 respectable journal as the Press
cannot be aware of the interested and unrelia-
BILE character of these reports, or it would not
have given place to correspondent ct once so
untrustworthy, and, for an American, 80 un-
patriotic.
am, very respectfully. your obd't servant,
j. N. NAVARRO,
Mexican Consul General.

tuition and to preserve the Union with all the
dignity, equality and rights of the several
States unimpaired."
To the principles thus solemnly declared,
still adhere, and regret to see large por.
ton OF the Republican party diverging from
them. At the time OF the passage Of this
resolution there were many men at the South
who had opposed secession, and who were
unwilling to aid their States in making war
upon our government The resolution was
solemn pledge to that class as to the treat
ment they should receive in case their States
should again be brought under control of the
General Government 1t was solemn de-
claration to every officer and soldier of the
Union armies as to the principles for which
they were contending. 1t was made at pc
Rod of gloom and despondency-on the dark
est day ever known in the capital of our coun-
try. The clouds that then lowered over US
have been dispelled. Not an armed foe is to
be found within our borders. Is it not hu.
initiating to witness on the part of large
party which has controlled the destiny of our
nation for five years, a disposition to repudlate
in the hour of triumph solemn pledges made
in the hour of danger? aE
