No. 142. LEGATION OF THE UNITED STATES
 MEXICO. May '. 1874

V
 SIR: I am in receipt of your dis patch No. 96, April II, requesting me to call the attention Of the Mexican minister of foreign affairs tO resolu- ton of the Senate Of the United States in regard tO the records and public documents of the Mexican government relative to the lands now embraced within the Territories of Arizona and New Mexico, copy of which resolu- ton was communicated to the minister of foreign affairs by my predecessor, Mr Nelson, under date of March 3, 1873.
 Soon after the transmission of the resolution of the Senate by this lega ton to the Mexican foreign office, Mr Rufus C. Hopkins, appointed by the Department of the Interior to examine the official registers of Immigrants made by the Mexican government in Arizona and New Mexico, arrived in this capital, and upon the request of this legation he was permitted to make full examination of the Mexican archives. 1 am informed that both Mr. Nelson and the minister of foreign affairs supposed that Mr. Hop kins, acting under the authority of the government of the United States, had obtained all the information contem- plated in the resolution of the Senate, and hence no further response was deemed necessary.
 Upon receipt of your dispatch No. 96, on the 29th ultimo, I addressed the minister of foreign affairs q note, re- calling to his attention the correspond ence of Mr Nelson on this subject, and requested that he would cOmmuni- cate to me the result of the inquiries made by his direction in the general archieves.
 Under date of the same day Mr. La tragua replied to my note, referring to the visit of Mr Hopkins, and inclosed to me copy of the report of the di- rector of the general archieves, made March 22, 1873, in answer to Mir Nel- sons request, but not heretofore com municated to this legation. By this report it appears that no such records as those referred 10 in the Senate resOlu- ton exist in said archives; but that, in
  asmuch as all the territory north of Zacatecas was judicially subject 10 the audiencia of Guadalajara, il is in the archives of that city, which were saved from the cOnflagration of 1858, 1S59,) that documents may perhaps exist of the character in question.
 1 have accordingly requested the minister of foreign affairs Co obtain from the government of the State of JaliscO information as to the existence of such records in the archives of Qua dalaiara. As soon as I shall be inform ed in regard thereto, 1 will c0mmuni- cate the result to the Department of State.
 inclose herewith copies of my cor rcspOndence with the minister of for eign affairs, marked A, B, and C.

 Despite each base control; X tongue 10 speak. hand to work,
