vate affairs. To this Juarez promptly re-
piled that the time should be allowed The
next from Macmillan is dated May 9th,
asking that the supreme government issue
an order allowing his counsel to leave the
city of Mexico, which was under siege, and
also desiring to speak personally with
Juarez upon grave affairs and important
to the country. Juarez gave. the order for
the exit from the city of the parties named,
but as to the interview, that could not be

separated them and the ends of justice.
Everything fitting as to Maximilian's
private affairs should however be done.
