OUR DUTY IN TIE MEXICAN MATTER.

OUR DUTY IN TIE MEXICAN MATTER,
Although we lave given President
Teiada, of Mexico, the credit of being a
sound patriot and a really sensible states
man, this does not say that we believe in
the parmanence Of his authority. On the
contrary, the very elements which ought
to establish President Tejada permanently
in Office for the next four years, are the
very ones which viii probably insure his
overthrow There is no well arranged in
terchange of thought in Mexico, owing to
the poverty of the mails and the ignorance
Of the people. The newspapers are the
mere organs of the officials, never instruct
ing the public except in the publication of
the laws and the orders of the local authori-
ties. The place hunters of one section
know nothing Of the place hunters Of
another section, contenting themselves
with waiting to be told what has transpired
in other localities, not as a matter
Of personal interest, but as an item of
general news This throws the power of
the country into the hands Of a dozen lit
tie rings, each acting independently in
getting up revolutions of the other. These
local disturbers were and are the bane
of Mexico. Juarez managed to keep them
in some sort of subsection to his authority
by virtue of his native force Of character,
and through the prestige he acquired in
driving out the French; but it is extreme
| ly doubtful if Tejada can maintain any
such discipline for the next twelve months
The fact is, the absence Of that general in
| telligence and extended patriotism which
prevails elsewhere, creates in every State
in Mexico body Of local disturbers who
rely upon revolution and disorder to pre-
serve their status as the ruling power Of
the State. Cortina, in Tamaulipas, Ire
vino, in Monterey, and a dozen such men
in other parts Of the country, control
large bodies of partisans, and they deter
mine when peace shall prevail and when
civil war shall exist They either revolt
tionize the State in which they
live, OF they rebel against the
nation, just as the caprice SEXES
upon them; and the probability is
that Tejada Will soon find himself engaged
IN conflict with half a dozen of these
selfish ehieftains. His attempt to sup
pant Cortina on the Rio Grande viii pro
aace revolution, and similar reformatory
movements in other quarters will produce
IKE results there, until the decentralization
Will grow into one of those civil wars such
as devastated Mexico before the French
intervention. The people are 50 Ignorant
that they can be misled into aDv sort Of
miserable attempt, and their means of
information is SO small that they can
never discover what they are fighting for
O., who they are fighting against. All their
papers viii tell them Will be what the
leaders allow to be told
If tht,5 theory is correct, that Teiada is
to be d. turbed and overthrown, and /
Mexico disc ~dered by a succession Of
'eyolutons. en- the American PEOPLE

THE 1MBRoGLIO AT THE CITY HALL.

The difficulty regarding the pay rolls at
the City Hall has at last been adjusted to
the satisfaction of all parties. The Mayor
has stricken out the names of such persons
as were drawing pay without performing
labor, and the rest are ordered to be paid.
This is right, and no one can object to it.
Where so many persons are employed it is
almost impossible for the Administrator to
keep the run Of them, and abuses will
necessarily arise; but, when brought to
light, the corrective will, Of course, be APP
Piled.
The Mayor and Administrators had a
consultation yesterday before the Council
met, and an understanding was reached
To-day the Mayor will publish the neces-
sary ordinance, and possibly tonight the
payment Of the rolls will be resumed
1t is a matter of general congratulation,
inasmuch as tie settlement Will relieve the
urgent wants of the laborers, and have a
tendency to restore the credit Of the city,
