Mexico Does Her Duty.

Three of the Grim inals concerned in the
breaking open of Texan Jail, having been
apprehended in Mexico, have now been
surrendered to the United States. The
Mexican authorities have acted well in this
matter and deserve credit, The region in
which these criminals took refuge is thinly
settled and the chances were greatly in
favor of their escape; but General Bena-
vides was prompt in his pursuit, and
though the whole party were not caught
the apprehension and return of these three
is fortunate and satisfactory
We congratulate the Secretary of State
upon the excellent success OF his course
toward Mexico. He has united trmncss
with patience he has known how to de-
mand justice without clustering and his
course has had the natural and proper re-
suit of making our rights respected by our
neighbors. The HERALD correspondent tel
egraphs that the surrender Of these crimi-
nails is regarded by our border people as
the promise Of better condition Of things
and the beginning of new rule of law
along the boundary. We will add our own
opinion, that in thus inducing the Mexican
government to do its duty Secretary
Evarts will be held by all honest
Mexicans to have done their country
a valuable service. Whatever teaches
the lawless classes in Mexico that they
are liable to punishment will helpto restore
permanent order to our neighbor Republic;
and Mexico needs only government strong
enough to crush out lawlessness and main
tain order to become prosperous and
wealthy nation. 1t is important to us that
she should be SO; we want none of her
territory; but the two countries can
mutually and greatly benefit each other by
friendly and intimate relations, such as
good faith in each towards the other can
alone establish and maintain.
