the following: san persons in Mexican terri
tory who have suffered any attack upon their
persons or properly since the I'd Of Feb
ruary, 1S4s, OF whatever kind, which

incursions Of individuals proceeding from the
United States, or from individuals At the time
residing in Mexican tarritory, but who after
ward obtained protection in the territory Of the
United States, may present their claims for the
damages SO incurred. It being the object OF the
Commissioner to form acomplete judgment OF the
question, complete impartality will govern its
conduct, and being governed solely BY the prin-
cples Of the striotest justice, it invites persons

committed by bands organized in Mexican terri
tory, to present their complaints to the Com

order to have all the necessary means and facili-
tics Of knowing what has occurred, that
tho evils that are said to have been committed
On both frontiers may be repaired and prevented
in the future. Tho investigation will evidently
take wide range, and will include all the 1lli-
clustering on this frontier since the Mexican
War.
