Behalf of Maximllian- Why Minister
Cnmpbell Resigned.
WASHINGTON, June l9.--There is au-
thority for stating that representatives
here Of the great foreign Powers, each
acting under instructions of the home
Government, a short time since asked
Seward to intercede with Juarez in favor
Of Macmillan, and found him entertain
ing views similar to their W and quite
ready to comply with their request. II
is further understood that partly 10 &C
cordance with this request Seward lately
and in stronger terms than before,
through the channel Of the Mexican Le-
CATION, made a second appeal to the
Liberals of Mexico in behalf Of Maximil-
ian. This is said to have been couched
in terms to make it more than IN ordi-
nary diplomatic suggestion.
Reports OF the disagreement between
the State Department and Minister
Campbell are incorrect. His reasons
for giving up the Mexican mission are
personal and rest upon the condition Of
his health. He does not diagree with
the Department as to the question OF
interceding for Macmillan.
