throughout the whole extent of the Ameri-
can continent such, at LEAST, Is the hope
and expectation of those who address you.
In this stability and in this alliance we
are encouraged 20 hope that the vast posi-.
i bllltles of Mexican commerce may be opened
to the participation of our people. We per-
ceive in the Justice and libeTaiity of your
administration and of the Congress, in the
pervading peace and reviyiug industry, as
in the courtesy and confidence which has
welcomed our own mercantile mission, in
dications of a new era in ourinternatiOnal
relations. Will not both governments in
woke the conservative influence of COM
merce! Her white wand may allay the
heats of national Ieuds Her cOUusels may
confirm the principles of political fraternity
by the ties OF mutual interest.
We shall return home, Mr.. President,
with, the belief that whatever of capital or
of enterprise may be invested by our city,
either in the commerce Or development of
Mexico, may be safely intrusted to a gov
eminent so enlightened and a people SO
conscious of amity and intercourse.
We will Mr.. President, occupy no more
of your time than to acknowledge the
courtesy which has accorded us this inter
view and to assure you of our profound
respect for yourself, as well as for the insti-
buttons and interests you have been called
by the Mexican people 10 administer.
The president in replying made a few
remarks, manifesting that the society of
Mexico received with much pleasure the
advent of the gentlemen sent out by the
New Orleans Chamber of Commerce, and
welcomed them as guests worthy of the
most cons!derate attention. He said that
the reciprocal sympathies existing between
Mexico and the United States, as demon
strated in recent solemn occasions and
strengthened in the equality OF their repub-
lican institutions, would be wonderfully
fruitful in multiplying intercourse and
developing mercantile transactions, alike
beneficial to both countries. ATr0 Repub-
