TER TO MEXICO.
The New York Times Of Tuesday has the follow
ing special dispatch from Washington

WASHINGTON, Monday, October 29.-Col. Lewis
D. Campbell, the United States Minister to Mexico
left this city last evening, with credentials address
ed to the Juarez Government, and with full in-
tripartito arrangement previously communicated
to you, between the United States France, and the
Republic of Mexico.
Dir. Campbell will probably visit bis home in
Ohio, en- route to Mexico.
Under the arrangement now perfected, Napoleon
is to commence the withdrawal of the French army
from Mexico next month, and although he has q
year from that time to complete tho evacuation of
Mexico, it is more than probable that the whole
army will be withdrawn by OF before the first Of
January next
OF COURSE with tho Withdrawal Of the Fronch
army, Macmillan takes his departure, and the farce
of On Enapireon the North American Continent is
ehaoa pro, q atato that this determination Of
tho political Government Of Mexico has been at
tanned through amicable negotiations with oil par
ties Interested
In yiewofthe great political changes anticipated
mental a,s;sjrs brought about under this manage
ment, and the weakness Of the Juarez Govorn-
ment, after the protraoted wars that have boon
forced uphA IT, to maintain it's existence it has be-

is possible that tho term guaranteed" is rather
strong toiexpress the relations assumed toward the
RepublGby the Government OF the United States;
but the Administration undertakes to lextond to
the Juarez Government in Mexico q proteotorate,
which, is to be operative, however, only in case Of
an emergency. In palmer terms, our army on tho
Rio Grahde and our feet in the Gulf, are to be
held in goodness to assist Juarez, should such as-
his authority as President of the Republic, and in
bringing to work in full vigor tho machinery OF o
Republican Government.
In order to an intelligent exercise Of this possible
armed Intervention, the Administration has de-
tern,inads to send with Minister Campbell mill.
sary officer Of high rank, eminent abilities and
tound Judgment, clothed with power to act in the
emergency referred to. Lieutenant General W. I.
Sherman Is now spoken Of in this connection, and
also Major General W. 8. Hancock. The RESPONSE
dored to General Sherman, and there is reason
to belVse TINT he will accept 1t, but should he de-
cline, General Hancock will undoubtedly be sent.
It. III no part Of the plan to move any United
States force into Mexico, until all occasion shall
arise to raSzer sreha resort necessary. But It is
Stakes thus publicly in sending an officer to Mexi-
co s1ldthed with This power, will be sufficient to
oyorsKa the various political lenders Of that oohn-
try and tie numerous rival factions that bosot the
support Of the only Government that has any pro-
tmsions TO regularity and constitutonalty, or any
t.biiity NstAblsh and maintain itself.
E Ip consideration of the friendly Offices thus as
ssulied by tho4 Government Of this country toward
Mexico, the Government Of that country, which is
thu1 eognizehh and established, agree to code to
bshe United Sta le Territory aa heretofore
munioAteG to YOU Tho Precise boundary OF tho
Territory thus to be oedod, it is not possible at
This time to give. But the future southwestern
bounday line Of the United States will probably
leave tho Rio Grande at or near tho point whore Il
now does; but talking more southerly course, will
run in d straight Mno to tho Gulf Of California,
striking that Gulf at point south of Glayanas SO
as to include that important seaport within tho
limitg Of the United Btatoy We then gain tho
the more valuable portions of tho States OF Sonora
and chihuahua, with all their immensely rich de-
posits Of precious metals tho undisturbcd nayiga-
tion Of California, and a..muoh shorter and moro
pfaeticabloroute to the Pacific Coast.
YDur'corrosponden has been made o target for
the attacks Of some newspaper writer's because Of
his exclusive foreshadowng OF this very important
adjustment Of the relations Of the throo countries
interested; but it will soon be seen that his state
melts have been correct, and those who have ut
tempted to contradict or throw doubt upon them
hare morely shown that thoy know nothing about
the matter. .z..st u

WASHINGTON, Monday, October 29.-The follow
ing special dispatch has just beon received at this
Bureau:
NEW ORLEANS, Monday, October 2s.-Generaz:
a1 Official communication, signed by you and ad-
dnssed to the commander OF Che OF the
Rb Grande, Brownsville, Texas. Said c0mmurica-
tim touches and decides, in military manner in
tanational questions OF grave import concerning
tho neutrality laws which aro violated from the mo-
mnt you promise the hearticst support to the adhe
rents Of sonor Juarez, md donominato o faction
tho upholders Of tho legitimate Government OF
Mexico. This, Sir, although indirectly, is an at
tempt to impose on that nation o Government
against its will and against it's constitutional laws
II 10 also an attempt to intorfero in tho informal
questions Of the Republic Of Moxico, which sho
aone has the right to decide The Government Of
tie United States has not heretofore tahon any part
in them. OF first could not understand your COM
nlunication; but mature reflection convinced mo at
last that it did not concern me. Such was my im-
PRESTON; and the day bofore yesterday called at
your reBlABnce 10 hago yha hNNoy Of paying you my
respects in testimony Of the good relations existing
botween the United Statos and tho Moxcap Re-
public, which heartily dosiro to preserve. Yestor-
day, however, two otieals of yorlr staff handed me
cut ante-communication, for me-, and only with my
name writton on the envelope, aB sign that
it was addressed to mo, once more read its
eontcnts,. and could not bo persuaded that it
concerned mo at oil, or what you meant by Trans
mitting it to mo in such manner, for reasons to
which it is OF present not necessary to refer, but
which are well known to your Government md to q
great portion OF the inhabitants of the United
States: Ihaye been residing in New York; and loft
that city on the 25th inst. on the way to my natiyo
country trayersing the territory Of this llilBtri
Gus nation, under the safe guide alM protection OF
it's laws. It is not ignored in tho United States
that am tho Constitutional President Of tho Moxi-
can Republic; that such position requires Of tho
performance Of great ind painful dutos, from
which no one unloss violating the laws can divert
me but the same Supreme national will that grant
cd me their votes. That it is not the lie fdct0 Gov
ernment of Juarez, the only one friendly to the
United States, but that tho great Liberal party of
my country is also friendly, and Juaroz ceased to
represent it from the day he violated the Constitu-
tion Of the Republic. For the above reasons de-
ny that created or represented faction.
