du-try, on that occasion, will tend to stimu-

friendship between the two countries.

A question arose some time since as to the
proper meaning of the extradition articles
Of the treaty OF 1872, between the United
states and Great Britain both governments,
however, are now in accord in the belief
that the question is not one that should be
allowed to Illustrate the ends of justice. or
to disturb the friendship between the two
nations. No serious difficulty has arisen
in accomplishing the extradition Of crimi-
mails when necessary. IL is probable that
the points OF disagreement will, in due time,
be settled, and If need be, a more expli ii
declaration be made in a new treaty.

sion, as made public by the commissioner,
will be communicated to Congress.

Cured in Mexico, was followed by the ac-

states, when such changes of Government
have heretofore occurred in Mexico, to re-
cogn1e, and enter into official relations
with, the de tacto Government, as soon as il
! should appear to have the approval of the
Mexican people, and should manifest a dis
position to adhere to the obligations of trea-
ties and international friendship. In the pres
ent case, such official recognition has been de
