lie stated that since the success oI
the Liberals there were fears en-
! tcrtained by tho leading men oI
Mexico, of u new invasion of that
country by European powers, who
were cmaged by the death Of Maxi,
milan, andalso Of n fresh repetition
! of intestine strife, which has been
the terror ofthc republic for SO many
years Under these circumstances
Juarc2, and the better class OF Mex,
lean leaders, entertain the PROPOSE
tion of placing Mexico under the
protection of the United States on
certain conditions. The most vital
of which is that they shall be taken
care ofin way Of security and good
positions in their native country.
Abbott urged that the Govern
mcnt should enter into negotiations
with Juarcz, and improve the op.
portUnity to annex Mexico to the
United States. He cXpatia.od up
on the immense advantage that
would secure to the United States
commercially, and in q territorial
point of view.
Tho Senators and Representatives
present listened to him attentively
for nearly an hour, when each one
gave his views on the subject. The
first to speak was Sumner who dis
approved the project for fear that if
it was adopted it might entangle
the United States with tho nations
of Europe. AT some future time he
thought it might be well enough to
entertain the idea, but at tho pres
ent he did not think it practicable.
Senators Chandler and Nye were
warmly in favor Of it; so also was
Senator Cole. Gen. Banks did not
think it practicable. He fears tho
Mcxicans, not in earnest in making
the >offer. Other parties present did
not express an opinion.
