Mnnifesto OF President IsIessias.

NEW ORLEANS, March 17.-Joseph
Igessiss publishes a manifesto as the
constitutional provisional President Of
the Mexican republic. After recount
ing the circumstances Of his departure
from Mexico and the news of the success
of Dlaz, ne says: Ny circumstances
were 80 critical when already everything
had besn lost on the Pacific coast, that
my further residence in San Francisco
no longer had an object. 1t was then
that determined to repair TO this city
where 1 might be better informed Of
such events as might occur in
the republic here. We have re.
celved confirmation of the
news previously brought regarding
the deep perturbsnce, loss Of property
and irremedisble anarchy which rack a
country pinned down by bsyonets and
by government turte 'e. This hybrid
creation exhibits every symptom of DIS
solution of these rickety beings now
lingering in agony between life and
death. Under the soemnity of the hour,
l deemed it my duty once more to send
forth my voice to the people whom l
have the honor legally to represent.
This statement of my acts explains why
| have come to foreign land. / find my
self under It's hospitality. When
l left my country, even tempo.
rarily, l had not, nor have l yet,
hairs breadth OF Mexican soil on
which / could place my foot without
danger of surrender to a triumphant fac
ton. II l succeed in having under my
control any portion of the national ter
ri,ory, shall 60 thlther to re establish
my lawful government. This is living
promise of nine, because it lives for the
performance OF a sacred duty which |
shall never belle. Wien the bard of
Pharsslia referred to the disasters Of
Pompey, he contrssted the assent OF
the gods of Olympus, the champion
OF the conquering cause, with
the solitary dissent of Cato, the cause of
which this day is worsted The cause in
Mexico depends on the amnesty OF public
opinion, on the separations in Its favor Of
the more soundly.thlnki g.part of society.
The worsted cause may be converted H.
to triumphant cause through the ire
sstable power of the national will, I
the Mexican people will only rally
around the Lsbsrsm sign which must
lead them to victory. The Constitutional
banner must still continue to wave
under .he protection of the law.
