Since your last session, the President
of the Mexican Republic, distinguished
by his high character and by his ser
vices to his country, has died. His
temporary successor has now been elect
ed with great unanimity by the. people,
a proof of confidence on their part IN
his patriotism and wisdom, which 1t is
believed will be confirmed by the re-
suits of his administration 1t is par
ticularly desirable that nothing should
be left undone by the Government of
either Republic to strengthen their rela-
tions as neighbors and friends. 1t is
much to be regretted-hat many lawless
acts continue to disturb the quiet of the
settlements on the border between our
territory and that of Mexico, and that
complaints of wrong TO American citi-
zens in various parts of thescountry are
made.
The revolutionary condition in which
the neighboring republic has so long
been involved, has IN some degree con-
tributed to this disturbance. 1t is to be
hoped that with a more settled rule OF
order through the republic, which may
be expected from the present Govern
ment, the acts of which just complaint
is made viii cease The proceedings OF
the commission under the convention
with Mexico. of the 9th of July, 1868,
on the subject of claims, have unfortu-
nately been checked by an obstacle, foI
the removal of which measures have
been taken by the two Governments,
which is believed will prove successful.
The Commissioners appointed pursuant
to the Joint resolutions of Congress, OF
the 7th of May last, to inquire into the
depredations on the Texas frontier, have
diligently made Investigations on thai
question, and their reportnpon the sub
iect viii be communicated toyo Then

Congress, from the beginning OF the
Government, has wisely made provision
for the relief of distressed seamen in
foreign countries. No similar provision,
however, has hitherto been made for
the relief of citizens In distress abroad
other than seamen. 1t is understood
to be customary with other Governments
to authorize Consuls to extend such re-
lief to their citizens or subjects in GER
tain cases. 4 similar authority, and an
appropriation to carry it into effect, are
recommended In case of citizens of the
United States, or sick under such cir
cumstances. 1t is well known that such
citizens resort to foreign countries IN
great numbers, though some of them are
able to bear the expenses incident to To-
comotion. There are some, through
accident or otherwise, who become pen
niless, and have no friends at home able
to succor them. Persons m this situa-
ton must either perish, cast thenIsel YES

SALARIES OF CITY OFFICERs.-At
the present time, when the national gov
ernment is straining every nerve to relieve
the people of all burdensome taxation, it
may be interesting to the Taxpayers of
Richmond to know that these efforts are
being successfully neutralzed in this city
by very liberal increase of the salaries Of
some of the city officers. The ordinance
mentioned in our report of the proceedings
OF the City Council goes into effect on the
lst day Of July, at which time the officers
to be elected on the 23d instant will assume
their respective duties.
The salary of the city clerk has been
raised from 81 800 to 81 900. That of the
clerk in the auditors office jumps from
Sl,250 to 81, 500. In accordance with a
report of the committee on claims and
salaries, made in October last, the au-
ditor's clerk. in addition to his regular
salary, draws $3.50 per annum as 'transier
clerk" the transfer work being among the
legitimate duties Of the Office and as there
has been no discontinuance of the allow
ance, it follows that next year he will draw
sl50 more from the treasury than the chief
of the office.
The salary Of the superintendent of the
pump-house has been raised from 81 900 to
81 200 per annum, and that of the assistant
from $500 to 81 900. The annual pay Of
some Of the members of the fire brigads
has been increased from $25 to $3.50.
