Mr.. Charles q. Harris Introduced
10 the President as Minister
from the Hawaiian Islands.

' Mr.. Charles q. Harris introduced
20 the President as Minister
from the Hawaiian Islands.
We understand that Mr.. CHARLES O
HARRrs was yesterday introduced TO tn,
President by the Secretary Of State, ant
delivered his credentials as Envoy Ex
traordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary
Of His Majesty King Of the Hawaiian
Islands. He made the following remarks
on the occasion:
sent the letter Of His Majesty the King Of
the Hawaiian Islands, accrediting me to
your Excellency as his Envoy Extraordi-
nary and Minister Plenipotentiary. In
doing so / have been commanded TO ex-
press His Majesty's high appreciation Of
the friendship which has ever been mani
tested by the Government and people Of
the United States towards his predecessor
and people as well as towards himself, and
to say that nothing will ever be omitted
by him which will cherish and strengthen
that friendship which was so signally Illus
trated by the generous hospitality with
which Queen Dowager Emma was received
and treated in this country. For this His
Majesty has already returned his thanks,
and il Is q great pleasure for me now, Mr..
President, to reiterate those thanks TO your
self personally and to every member Of
your Government.
The King and people Of Hawaii have
always entertained, and still continue to
entertain the very warmest regard for the
Government and people Of the United
States, and / have been sent into this
country, Mr.. President, to endeavor to
draw more closely the ties which bind to.
gether the two countries.
Judge, therefore, how grateful thing
it was to meet upon the wharf when land
ing on the shores Of the United States the
evidence that similar desire was enter
tanned by your Excellency in meeting
your accredited envoy, who is regarded
among us with the highest consideration.
Permit Inc, Mr.. President, whilst per-
forming the pleasing duty Of conveying to
the Government Of the United States the
expression OF the regard and friendship
Of His Majesty the King Of Hawaii to ex-
press the sense Of the high honor which
has been accorded to me in being permit
ted to represent the interest Of Hawaii in
the capital Of that country which am
proud beyond the power Of expression to
call my native country.
To which the President replied
Mr.. Harris: bid you welcome to the
capital Of the United States. Before your
arrival, l had already been apprised Of the
interesting conferences which were held
between yourself and our representative
for the Hawaiian Islands at your meeting
in San Francisco. The official correspond.
ence between your country and our own
has long been SO intimate and friendly,
that expressions of cordiality on this occa.
sion would perhaps be liable to be regarded
as merely formal repetition.
Accept, then, my general assurance that
everything on the part Of this Government
and people, which may affect the Govern.
ment and people Of Hawaii, will be con.
sidered and conducted in a spirit Of liber.
ality, Justice, and friendship.

THE POLICY OF OUR GOVERN.
MENT TOWARDS MEXICO.

Many oil the newspapers are clamorous
for policy towards Mexico. They de.
mand that our Government should have q
policy, and that thi, policy shall be dis
tinctly ayowed. In the meantime, the
papers undertake to foreshadow q policy
such as they think the Government ought
to adopt; but their opinions are as various
and as contradictory rs the sources from
whence they come. One party will Tell
you that we should take sides with JuAREz;
that he did right in shooting MAxIMLrAs,
MEJIA and MIRANoS. Another denounces
JUAREz as a "blood.thirsty tyrant;" calls
the Mexican barbarous and half-civilized
people, and demands vengeance. Others
will tell you that our Government ought
to raise hundred thousand men and blot
out this nation, or at least establish q pro-
tectorate over them. Then there are the
avengers Of MACMILLAN, who are getting
up fillibustering bands, and the cry with
them is, "On to Mexicow While all this
is going on, and the press is urging the
avowal Of Government policy, Mr..
SEWARD comes forth, calmly and dispas-
sonately, and makes known to the world
the policy of the American Government.
1t is so simple, and yet at the same time
so just, that all clamoring ceases. We
have, then, o policy; it is this: let Mexico
alone; let her work out her own salvation
Can there be q wiser or q better policy
for our Government to pursue ? Does il
not commend itself to every just man
and will not all nations commend it
Wherefore should we interfere with Mex
leo? She is our sister republic, and it ID
fair to presume that she can manage her
own internal affairs. Let her alone, -
says Mr.. SEWARD. Wait.
1t is reported that the Mexicans hate ui
because our Government sought to save
the life Of the archduke. This may be so
but we can bide our time. If we do what
is recommended, in the future they will be
our friends.
1t has been oil along, and still is, the
most difficult thing in the world to get re
liable news from Mexico; so much so thai
everybody may well feel cautious abou
forming opinions Of affairs in that coun
try. The very last advices from there
came to us via New Orleans. Some ten
der things are said of MAxmLrAN's las
hours. He is represented as saying, wher
led forth for execution, "What beautiful
clear heavens; it is such as l desired fol
the hour OF my death" The officer in
charge asks his forgiveness. 1t is granted
freely, in words like these: "Child, sol
der must always comply with his orders
All this is probably true; but such state
ments as these, that MKJIA's wife ran dis
tractedly through the streets, carrying I
newborn infant; that JUAREz refuses t
give up the body Of MAMMALIAN, or tina
the Mexicans, as a people, hate the Amer
leans, must be taken with considerable al
lowance. We must, for some time t,
come, leave pretty wide margin upor
which to write the corrections to our Mex
lean adyices
