The nature of our relations with
Mexico is every day becoming more
complicated aud more serious, Not
week passes that the State Depart
ment does not receive, from Ameri.
eau citizens ia Mexico, the most ur-
gent appeals for protection. The
probability is, that Juarcz docs not
expect to remain in power more than
a few month longer that he is aware
that the Moxiean people nre opposed
to him aud to his narrow minded
cruel policy, and will arise against
him aud depose him as soon as tho
proper leader appears 10 the mean.
time it is evident thai he and Esco-
hedo have made up their minds To
use their power solely to enrich
themselves and their followers. The
Americans In Mcvieo are being made
the first victims Of their rccnpsci,y
and the treatment which they are
receiving from those brutal assasslus
surpasscs in atroci,y anything of the
Kind that has ever taken place, even
in Mexico. The sufferers look TO
their Government at home for re.
dress. but they will look in vain.
All these outrnges will be pslisted
and excused, If not justified, by the
Radical Republicans In Congress,
who nro the sworn allies Of the Ju.
artists. These outrsges will be con
tnucd, therefore, by the Jusrisss
with IMMUNITY for r,any months 10
come. But The people Of tho North
ern States will become aroused at
late. They will see that these out.
rapes will continue as long ms the
Radicals remain in power. and this
consideration will have grca. weight
in the election for members of Con.
press next year. We have no quar-
rel with the Mexican people, But
