derstOOd would leave Mexico Ia November, now mast |
the second in March next and the third and last in
November 1867. Immediately upon the completion |
OF the evacuation, the French government to as
sumo the attitude OF nonntervenon, in regard
to Mexico, as is held by the government of the Unit
ed States. Repeated assurances have been given by
the emperor, since that agreement that he would |
complete the promised evacuation within the period
mentioned, or sooner II was reasonably expected |
that the proceedings thus contemplated would produce
crisis of great political interest in the republic Of
Mexico. The newly appointed minister Of the Unit
ed States, Mr.. Campbell, therefore sent forward
on the ninth day of November last to assume his
proper functions minister plenipotentary of the
United States to that republic 1t was also thought
expedent that he should be attended in the vicinity
Of Mexico by the lieutenant general Of the army Of
the United States, in view Of obtaining such nforna
tion might be important to determine the to
be pursued by the United States in re.estabshng
and maintaining necessary and proper intercourse
with the republic of Mexico. Deeply interested in
the cause Of liberty and humanity it seemed an OBJ
vious duty part to exercise whatever influence
we possessed for the restoration and permanent es-
Enlistment IN that country Of Il domestic and repub
licau form Of government. Such was the condition
OF affairs in regard to Mexico, when on the 22d OF
Nov. last, official information was received from Par
is that the emperor Of France had some time before
decided not to withdraw detachment of his forces
in the month Of November past, according TO engage
ment but that this decision made with the pur-
pose Of withdrawing the whole of those forces in the
ensuing spriug OF this determination, however, the
United States had not received any notice or ntima-
uohi anu, 50 soon as the Information was received
by the government care was taken to make known
Its dissent to the emperor OF France. ! cannot fore

An entire change OF ministry occurred in that coun-
try during the last session Of parliament. The atten-
uon Of the new ministry was called to the subject ut
early day, and there is some reason to expect that
il will now be considered in II becoming and friendly
spirit. The importance Of an early disposition ofthe
question cannot be exaggerated. Whatever might be
the wishes Of the two governments it is manifest that
good will and friendship between the two countries
cannot be established until reciprocity in the prac
ce of good faith and neutrality, shall be restored be-
tween the respective nations.
