No matter Bow little capacity the Mexicans have sbown for self-govern- ment, it was but natural that we should view With jealousy and distrust any Earopean in- terierence with them: and it is no jess natural that we snould now rejoice in: the overthrow ofa usurpation which bad so little hold on the affection of the people as to require to be propped with foreign bayonets, and which dalis when they are withdrawn Previous to 1560 the manifest strength of | the United States was a sufficient protection fer itselt and for Mexico against ali foreign States. That strength was weakened by faction in + and the jealousy of Great Briv‘ain, France, and Spain prompted them to assume an wnfriendly attitude towards us ‘This firs: manifested itself im the triple expe- Gition to Mexieo, undertaken by them in vir- tue of @ joint treaty dared October 3ist, 1961. It was terminated in Feoruary. 1562, after the on of Vera Cruz, by the Plenipoten- es Tecognizing the Republican govern- yoent ot Juarez in the Convention of Soledad, oviding for negotiations in settlement of eur respective claims. That Convention was ratified by the governments of England and » but was rejected by that of France. on ad that her object in the expedition “to overthrow the phartom of a govern. ment’ which the Plenipoteatiaries had recog- nized and treated with. England apd Spain thereupon withdrew, and the Emperer of France continued alone the assault wpon the Mexican Republic, and on the 3d et July, expitined in his famou-< letter to General Forey the motives and objects of the invasion. He had already, in March, Is62. expressed to Mr. Dayton his belief that the North wonld not be snocessfal in potting down the rebellion, and be nov boldly intimated that the object or the ex pedi- tion was to check the progress of the United States: to prevent their commanding the Gault and becoming the only dispensers of the pro- ducts of the New Word, and that with thi- view be proposed to resore to the Latin race ts prestige by continuing a stable (!) govern. ment in Mexico, and thus France would create immense market: for her comme! aod establish her influence «in the center America.” To carry out this grand project, after th. capture of the City of Mexico by the French on the lich of June, Iné, the general-in-chiey desued & decree convening an as-embly of -notabilities™ and *- notabies,” which met and Adopted (according to programme) as a form of government 8 limited hereditary monareby, with « Catholic prince to take the title of «+ Emperor of Mexico: and the crown was of- tered tothe Prince Ferdinand Maximilian, Archduke of Austria, for himself and his descendants. He accepted, (as it was arranged he should.) and tried to get recognition of nis empire by the Earupean Powers previous to bis coming over in the spring of 1-64. Thus, by 4 conspitacy, in which many Mexicans en- eaged against the independence and freedom | ef theirown country, an imperial monarchy | was founded in Mexico a little more than Ubree years ago. With the collapse of the rebellion and the extinction of slavery in this country. which demonstrated the power o! our government, it became eviden: that the Empire would not long continue, and the prompt withdrawal of the French treops, in compliance with Napoleon's promises to us, ensured its speedy downfall. as the people ‘Were against it. If an Emperor could be tol- erated at all in Mexico, Maximillian would have been as good as any other, doubtless better than some. He seemed te baye many ood qualities, and but few bad ones.

To what extent we can properly | sntervene becomes then a grave and weighty question, which demands the most serious consideration. That we should eadeavor to secure the personal safety of Maximillian will be agreed to by all. Bar ifintervention tor this humane purpose is allowable, it may be argued that humanity should carry us yet further, amd interest us in the setsiement of the government o* Mexico on 4 firm Republi- can basis. Perhap,< so, but we should for the present comtent ourselves with giving good advice, and wait tosee what the Mexicans themselves will make out of --the situation” wihout our imterfereace. If they fail utterly to extricate themeel ves, it will be time enough then for us to consider in what way we can best belp them.
