CITY OF MEXICO, June 7.-Foster, tie

9th ult. osssrro8F .--.l---r1 e
The foreign priests, who have recently
been in custody, have been expelled from
the country, the, government -sty-
ling them pernicious foreigners.
The American Minister inter-
fered in behalf Of two .nlturalized Irish
men, but the President refused to allow
them TO remain. The arrest of these priests
is considered clear indication of the un-
willingness of the President TO protect the
church party, although he has hitherto been
considered as having leaning in favor OF
the priests. The journals are warmly dis
cussing the matter Of expulsion. Three
sick foreign priests were allo7ed to remain
temporarily upon giving bai 10 leave the
country immediately on their recovery.
These found asylum in private houses,
Nearly all of them are very old.
