MEXICO.
Reception of Gen. ord's Instructions In
Mexico.

Reception of Gen. ord's Instructions In
Mexico.
City Of Mexico, Juns 30.-The spirit
of the order to Gen. Ord to cross the
Rio Grande las been misunderstood by
the press, which has: caused bitter
attacks to be made on the American
government. An official journal says
lhat the United States government
orders u violation of treaties and inter-
national law, alleging that the Rio
Grande movement is "a pretext for ter
ritorial agrandiZement, and forces Ler-
do upon the Mexican people. These
attacks have called forth Il memoran-
dunn from Minister Foster, which is
addressed to the government and for
eign representatives. The following
are the principal points of the memo
randum:
The instructions given to Gen. Ord
are not an announcement of any new
measure on the part of the United
States; that depredations committed
during the past four years We're not
common to both sides of the frontier.
Mexico took no adequate, vigorous
measures to prevent depredations or
punish outlaws. Mexico evidently ac-
k~nowledged its inability to discharge
its duty regarding the preservation of
order on the Rio Grande frontier, CIV
ing as a reason, internal d~issension.
The instructions to Gen. Ord are mis-
interpreted by the Mexican govern
ment. Therefore the declaration made
by the Mexican ministry was
ranted, in officially asserting that the
Instructions to Gen. Ord are in contro-
vention TO treaties between Mexico and
the United States.
Telegraphic dispatches announce a
meeting between Gems. Ord and Trevi-
no, at Pedras Negras, at which AMIGA
BILE and satisfactory arrangements were
made for the suppression of raids, by
the Mexican government.
