he found fault with its publication without submitting

A FlLIBUsTERING EXPEDITION AGAINST MExICo-It
is stated that formidable fbustering organisation
exists in New York cty,ss with ramifcations at New
Orleans, having orits purpose invasion of Mexico,
with view to the displacement of Juarez by GEN
eral Ortega, in order to advance certain Interior
schemes looking to the endorsement by this govern
ment of some S25,000,0Oo or $50, 100000 Mexican
bonds. Referring to this proposed expedition, the
New York correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger
writes:
1t is the same organisation which paid the expenses
of the Santa Anna expedition. Had Santa Anna been
successful On landing, it supposed that lie would by
this time be in the halls of Montczuma, negotiating
with Mr. Seward for union of the two countries, on
the basis of paying off the Mexican debt in considera-
ton OF recovering the whole of Mexico in return But
now that Santa Anna is either dead or prisoner in
the hands of the Juarsts along with Ortega what
the programme Briefly this: To fit out another ex-
petition to land somewhere on the Mexican coast un-
furl the banner of Ortega and trust to fortune for
Mexican support. 0rtega's name, they say, will do
just well 0rtega himself IF Juarez shot him. so
much the better it will make Juarez unpopular and
hasten his end.
The United States Marshall the United States Dis
rict Attorney and the Collector of the Port are not in
the dark as to what is in the wind, and there is au-

their duty to maintain the neutrality laws at any and
