THE TEHUANTEPEC TREATY. The Sharp Note of Mr. Letcher to the Mexican Government. MB. LETCILER TO MR. RAMIREZ. Lacarion or tie Uniren States or America, Urry or Mexico, April 2, 1852. ‘The omderrigned Prvoy Ext and Minister Plenipotentiary of ta» United States of America, has the honor most reaprctivt’y to ay to His Excellency Mr. Ra- mires, Minister of Forvign Relations, that he is impelled | by a sense of officin! duty and reeponsibility, which it is impossible for him to avoid, once more, and for the last time. to request the -crious and grave attention of Mr. Ramirez to a sunmury statement of facts connected with the Tehuantepec Convention, before that instrament is submitted to Congress for its final action; and also, to declare in» xplic.t term: the consequences which must mecesseriy fouiow ite rejec'ion. Before, however the undersigned proceeds to perform this undertaking ne begs (o acknowledge the receipt of Mr. Ramirez’ note of — instant, accompanied by a me- morisl dedicated to the diplomatic corps, purporting to ive am accurate hixtery of the concessiom made to Mr. 4 by the Mexican government, which conceasion forms the bysis ot the convention in question, and at the same time mokivg #n auimated appeal to all the foreign powers to ju» ity and sustain Mexico for the de- termination which it appears from what is set forth, she bas already torn d ‘o reject that convention. The undersigned mu-! say, with perfect frankness, he has seen the memorial of HB. with feelings of great suc- price and ul regret. Such a publication, made under all the existing ciroumstances, seems to the under- signed to be iweppropriate aud altogether unprecedented, as far at he know-, in tbe annals of negotiation, The un- dersigned ‘ays this 1 spit of unkindoess toward Mr. Ramirez; upon the contrary. he entertains for him the warmest persi nal reyard aud the highestappreciation | of bis integrity and tent Whother this appeal to forcign powers will advance the | imterests of Mexico. or will uda tothe bigh fume of the a arn jurist nnd a statesman, remains to be kuown, lexico, as the uude:sigucd trusts, stands in need ef | no advice from furegu powers upon points of national | honor. or upon mattcrs of uatioual duty, | It is believed she is fully oo ent to understand her relative obligations, and 10 maintain good faith, without atking the opinion, co-operation or sympathy of other nations, Every nation wiust necessarily be the exclusive arbiter of her owo honor. The Congress of Mexico, pre | sumed to be composed of able and ehlightened statesmen, | moving in their appropriate orbit, uninfluenced by the co-ordinate br government, are the inde- pendent. constitutiona! advirers of the executive in the treaty making power and asa general fact. have exclu- sive right to ratify or toreject any treaty that may be submitted to them by the executive, for their advice and consent, Congress therefore, requires no instructions, moO erguments, no xppenl emanating from another branch of the government. to enable them to discharge with fidelity aud ability the high duties entrusted to their charge. They are the choren sentinels of the people to guard and to protect their mghts; and as the undersigned res- Peetfullgy suppures. their duties. so far as treaties are con- cerned, Bre separate disiuct and independent of all the Other departments of the government, and ought to be so in every frce and weil regulated community, What the waderrigned thinks he has aright to com- plain of, retpectfu'ly. and free of ali manner of excite- ment, is, that before Congress is allowed to conrider the conventien in question, His Excellency makes an address | to foreign powers, attacking the basis upon which it is sounded ‘This powerful intellectual artillery seems to be directed to thet point, avd to thut point alone, If the foundation is undermincd. a a matter of course the superstructure mut fall and the werk of destruction is thus indirectly accomplished. lis Exceileney very adroitly and very cautiourly avoids an attack upon the merits of that in- #trument, he takes epccial pains to keep out of view the great advantages which are secured by it, and secured forever.to Mexico In this mode of attack, His Excellen- cy bas mauifested the skill and tact of an advocate who Los bad great experience in the management of bad causes, uniformly endeavoring to cast a veil over the stropg pointe of the care Why. allow the undersigned respectfully to inquire. out forib this memorial only a few days before Congress as the convention under advisement? Why not leave Congress to act upon its own constitutional responsi- Minty? Why mske an argument, the effect of which (although the undersigned is persuaded such was not the motive) wight poseibly mislead or intluence the action of that body? Wey not wait until the subject was disposed Of. and then make the appeu! in justification of the decision of Congress whatever tbat might be? His Excellency may obinin, by the course he bas chosen to adopt, momentary éclet—be muy justly entitle himself to the credit of heving doue more than any other individual has done to Gestroy. or rather delay. the greatest enterprise of the ®ge—an enterprice ip which ell the world is more or less gerely, interested; but no portion of it so much 60 as ExiLo It will be perceived. by the stipulations of the conven- tion, Mexico has this mporiant improvement within her own grasp, and very much under her own control, She has not surrendered a single particle of her sovervigaty, ws has been alleged, by the treaty. The work isto be made. should the trcaiy be approved, without costing her the expenditure of a single dollar. She receives one- fourth of the tolis 4s soon as the undertaking is finished, and, after the expiration of nineteen yeurs and eleven months. Mexico would receive one half of the tolls; and in fess than forty years she would be the sole and exclu sive proprietor of the entire improvement, of incalculable valuc. Independent of all these advantages, the pro- ductsof Mexican c:tizens, according to an article in the treaty, are to be tramsported at a cost one-fifth less the products belonginging to the citizens of other ccuntzics, ‘According to the estimate which appears to have been made with great accuracy. by skilful engineers, it will re- quire about tn millions’ of doilars to complete the com- munication between the two grat oceans. Atleast twenty thousand Mexican citizens would find employment, at good woges, inthe undertaking. Industry would be rewarded, and her grestresources now dormant,wouldat once become sctive. Al! the many extraordinary benefits which would accrue to Mexico. ia every respect. by furnishing this great bighway for the commerctal world, the undersigned will not stop to enumerate ; this is a matter she will decide for her-elf—be burely alludes to them, In fuct, they are too obvious to every one who tekes the trou- ble to think to require «nything more than a passing re- ark art what does Mexico, allow the undersigned to in- quite give in return for these immense advantages? The answer i, a concession of Vacant and unappropriated dands—tands which add not une iota, at present, to the national wealth. and are altogether useless, and will pre- bably remain ro furever. unlers the contemplated improve- ment should be comuicted. ‘The undersigned is aware that most exaggerated esti- mates of the valu+ of the land embraced in the conces- Bion bave been circulated. both in this country and else- where, to efiect particular cbjects It will be found. if the undersigned is not very much misled from informa- tion deemed reliable, that most of the good lands have been previously appropriated by claimants holding para- mount titics The undersigned bigs to propound to Mis Excellency, in view of there facts » single interrogatory. Let it be supposed. for the sake of the argument, that the concession hild by Garay is invalid, and that now, for the first time, the proposition should be made to Mex- ico to give, asa conrtderation the very identical lands contained in the aforesaid concession —first, the fourth of the tolis. after the transit way should be finished ; second- ly, the half of the tame in twenty years: thirdly, a transfor of the entire work to Mexico, ia Lorrie ss 2 in forty years ; fouribly in the mean time to convey Mex- fcam products on the roud at # fifth less cost than citi- gens of all ether ee be compelled to pay for the transportation of their products, What would be the answer of Mexico, and what in justice to her own in- ch an offer? The undersigned leaves His Excellency to retiect candidly on this point. But here, it appears, ia the difficulty, and that difficulty, in the estimation of Uis Excellency, is inasupe- rable, The grant to Garay, after the lapse of many yeurs, and long after it had passed into the hands of in- ocent wo purcbarers. for a beavy consideration, has been Discovered to be fraudulent, null. and void. This, the un must eay, With great reepect, is a most sin- polar and, at the same time, is preseated to the knowledge of the world under circumst tingular An opp: sition in this form is gotten up against the conoesion, and ulao against the treaty, both of which veem to be dovounced ip the most ummeasured terms, by editcrs of mewepapers. by orators, and what is still moro astoni-bing to ey brine gett oreo by siatesmen hold- bo laces. and of givat reputation a er Nee fatsbee of this excitement, the under- signed is exceedingly sorry to say cool reflection seems to have given way to pasion and prejudice. undersigned avuils himself of this occasion to say it there ever was a time or a subject which required calm deliberation, this is the time. and this is the subject. Tho underrigued feels the deepest anxiety—in fuct. the Est pomible solicitade—that ages Fert pow or reatter oecur to di \urb the friendly ‘tions existing between the two countries, and such is the sincere wish of his government and ot the le of the United States, ‘The underrigned i- -adly grieved to ive that the concession in question, and the treaty with which it is indissolubly comnected. are both condemed as it appears to the ed. without a full aud fair hearing—con- demped before the day of trial es off—condemned by an edict from the @>lace in the form of a memorial—con- demped before an impartial jury of Congress is im Le fed to try the case upon ite merits.

On the 6th October, 1843, Sauta Anna again President. and issued a decree, mating the Governors of Ouxaco and Vera Cruz to furnish convicts, to the number of three hundsed, to be employed on the work. By another decree of Sante Amma, on the 28th December, 1843, the period for commeneing the work om the Isth- mus, which, by the original grant. was to expire on the ‘lst July. 1844, was extended to the lst July, 1845. In the winter of 1844, Santa Anna was no longer President of the republic. At that period the country was exposed to constant internal commotions, arising from the contests for pre-eminence on the part of different leaders, who rapidly succeeded each other in their struggle for the Presidency. Under these embarrassing | circumstamces, Garay became satisfied that the time allowed him was insufficient for organizing an enterprise of such magnitude. und in June, 1845, he made appli- cation to the Mexican Congress. asking further time, soliciting additional privileres and facilities for the i: troduction of the necessary materials and supplies, aud FEaying that further inducements, in the of taxes and imports. might be granted to persons disposed to settle as colonists on the Isthmus, A bill was introduced into the Mexican Chamber of Deputies in accordance with this application, and was ed by that body. It was then sent to the Senate— there referred to a committee, who reported favorably, and was on the eve of being submitud to a vote, wh there oceurred a sudden convule wiles caused Con- gress to disperse, ‘The administration of Paredes was subverted by Mari- ano de Salas, who took porsession, as dictator, ot ‘the su- preme executive power. The entire system of govern- ment was revolutionized under bis auspices; the form was changed from a central. or consolidated. into a fedo- rative system, the quotas of contribution of the several States of the republic were regulated and fixed; t&e most important administrative mesures organized; the liberty of the press established. &c., &e. All these great measures, which now exist in Mexico, end this form of governmeut, now established here, it is believed. derive their origin trom the decrees of Salas, no one of which. as far as the undersigned knows, has been for 4 mowent doubted or questioned, except ia one sin- gle instance, Whilst Salas was thus exercising. de facto. supreme power, and whilst his dictatorship was unquestioned, his attention was drawn to the Jaw which was on the eve of being passed when Congress was dissolved. [He promul- gated his decree of the 5th of November. 1846, which isa copy of the law which passed the Chamber of Deputies, aud which was adopted by the committee of the Senate. By the terms of this decree. the time of commencing the work was postponed to the 5th of November, 1848. The work was ectually commenced prior to that date, as is es- tablished by the official reports of the Mexican authori- ties on the Isthmus, > The ope narration of the foregoing facts seems to the undersigned amply sufficient to establish, in a most couclnaive manner, the validity of the grant in question, and to preclude the Mexican government, at this late date, from raising a question on the subject. All these decrees, however, formed a contract to which the cnlv parties and interests were the Mexican govern- ment and one of its own citizens, in which no foreign nation would have a right to interfere, in any manucr whatever Tt becomes necessary. therefore. to consider in what manner the government of the United States, and many of her citizens, bave acquized an interest in this matter, and the extent of their right to demand the execution of the grant. It will be remembered, by the terms of the concestion, “Garaygwas authorized to assign his rights to any private individnel or company, natives or foreigners.” ». then, is a plain, full, complete, and undoubted power of attorney, granted by the sovereign power to the person holding the concession, to seli the same It is, in fact. more than a power of attorney, to transfer all his in- tererts in the grant to natives or foreigners. It is in the nature of 8 bill of credit, indorsed in every form and mavuer. and, at varicus times, re acknowiedged again and again by the sovereign power proclaiming to the world that Garay was the proprietor of the conces- sion, and bad the right to sell the samo. and that the honor and gocd faith of Mexico should sustain the sale, He availed himself of this privilege. made transfer of all his rights, in the years ’46and ‘47, to Mauning and Mack- intosn, Ei glish subjects residing in this city, The trans fer wax duly notified to the Mexican government. It was fully recognized and approved, as the undersigned be- lieves. and om the complaint of Manning and Mackintosh President Herrera issued orders to the Governors of Vera Cruz und Oaxaca to prevent tne cutting of mahogany by any other than the Englixh company, Again: when the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo wus negotiating in 1847, Mr. ‘Trist, by virtue of instructions, tendered a high considera- tion to the government of Mexico for a right of way scrors the Isthmus. The commissioners empowered by Mexico to treat with him. replied that * Mexico could not treat on this subject. because she had, several years before, made # grant to one of her own citize transferred his rights. by the authorizution can government. to English subjects, of whove rights Mexico could not dispose.” Thur, Mexico has deslared, ou the mort rolemn occasion. of public intercourse be- tween pations, that the grant was beyond her control. and that its validity admitted of no doubt, A citizen of the United States, after looking into all the decrees aod pledges and public acts of Mexico, confirmed by the de- cluration of the commissioners aforesaid. giving full faith avd credit to the honor of Mexico, and never having heard or understood that the validity of the cession was drawn in question. became its purchaser from Manning ard Mackintosh. and subsequently associated with him in the prosecution of the enterprise a company of citizens of New Orleans, This association was formed openly and publiely. Before commencing their works. these American citi- zens were. however. dssitous of ascertaining, beyond & doubt. the good intention of Mexico to forward this en- terprire and of shielding themselves under the proteo- tion of their own government, agaipst all danger and difficulties, or emergencies that might arise, and mot with every encouragement thut a subject #@ deeply interesting to the nation was calculated to elicit, The undersigned was therefore instructed by his go- yernment to intorm the Mexican government of the de- sire of the holders of the grant to commence their work by a thorough survey of the Isthmue. as full confidence Was not reposed in that which had been made by the en. employed in 1842; and further. to make over- tures for # treaty of joint protection of the work. The Mexican government made not the slightest objec- ticn in forwardivg passports, and issued orders to the departments of Ovxnea and Vera Craz net only to avoid interporing apy obstacles in their way, but on the con- trary to aflurd them sid and hospitality, This, as His’ Excellency appears to think, was a mere act of courtery—of national civility. What! indace ® cempany to expend upwards of a hundred thousand dollars, and call it a mero act of politeness! ‘That. to the undersigned, appears to be carrying polite- nesé beyond the proper point. And was it an act of civi- lity also, to expel the very same engineers the coun- try before the work was completed ! ‘Lhis occurred in April, 1850. The engineers were ac- cordingly sent ; the ports thrown open for their supplies. More than one hundred and twenty thousand dollars have been expended in the surveys, and im opening and in cutting roads through the most broken parts of the country ; expending also a large sum of money for pur- chasing the necestary materials to make the road. This company, compored of many gentlemen, equal, in polut of integrity. honor and invellect, as any citizens of the United States, having engaged in this laudable and reat enterprise, have, Wy tome Bieans or other, incurred the displeasure of Mr. Ramirez. who has taken occasion to denounce them as speculators. ‘The undersigned. in justice to these gentlemen, wishes to suy toH, E that he ia utterly deceived in regard to the motives which have influenced them in engaging in this magnificent enterprise. They clearly raw the com- mercia) advantages which would flow into New Orleans, by connecting the two oceans, and the great benefit which would accrue to the world in general ; and having invested large amounts of money in the undertaking, trusting to the good faith of Mexico, now have the mis- fortune,instead of receiving that aid and support which they had every just right to expect, or having their mo. ney refunded, of being denounced as ® set of vile specu- lators. That appears to the undersigned to be a very unjust mode of satisfying eed for the money ay have advanced. They certainly deserve a better ate On the application for a treaty for the joint protection of the work, the Mexican government most cheerfully contented to enter into an immediate negotiation, ant appointed one of her most illustyys citizens, Gomes Pedraza, to open the negotiation the undersigned. In justice to his memory, the undersigned wishes to aay he was a statesman of enlarged views, of inflexible in- tegrity. and undoubted patriotism ; no man in the world was, or could be, more devoted to his country than he was. He understood tully every fact connected with the Garay conces:ion, from bainaing: toend, He made with the underrigned, under the auspices of the then Minis- ter of Relations, Mr. Lacuusa. a gentleman of high dis- tinction and great ability, the convention of June, 1850. which was afterwards modified. upon the euggestion of the government of the United States, in some ¥: tlight and unimportant particulars; and, thus modi the convention of the 25th January, 1891, ras approved by President Herrera, and by every individual, as as the ep toe aig ye his L.Ed But, theconvention egreed to in every partic except a few words in the firet article, and some discussion pd ariven respecting those words, it was not signed until the resent inistratiom cameinto power. The alteration fh the first article was then mude, according to the wishes of Mr under the imm eo advice of edraza. age the then Minister Foreign Relations, Mz.

Ever since then the Mexican Congress, Execu- tive, courts of justice. and public functionaries of ail classes, have been in the constant habit of citing the de- crees of Salas as part ot the fundamental laws of Mexico, In truth, if the undersigned is not very much mistaken, the very Congress which declared that Sales had no powor to pass a decree in favor of the Tehuantepec grant, annuiled « law of the State of Sonora, on the ground that it violated the dectee of Sains on the subject of celo- nization, Comment on these facts is altogether super- flueus, Ingenuity and, sophistry, combined, cannot change them. It will be peeceived six successive Mexican administr \- tions have, directly or indirectly. declared the validity of the grant now held by citizens of the United States, And here ina spirit of kindnses snd respect. the un- dersigned begs leave to propound a simple question to H. E Mr. Ramires, If rix successive admimstrations can- not pledge the nationul faith and honor of a country, according to the rule of three how many will it take? And in the sume spirit, the undersigned takes the liberty to propcund one or two more questions If all the other decrees of Salas were good and valid, how did it happen that the one respecting the Tehuantepec grant was null and void? And if null and void, why that important fact was mot made known betore the treaty was made and before it was ratified by the United States, and before her citizens mado such large investments in the enterprise? After acquiercing so long in the validity of the Salas de- cree postponing the work, is it not now too late to say that this decree was enacted without authority ? The naked truth is. as the undersigned must say, with all due deference, after baving made the concession up- wards of ten yours ago; after having again and again re- affirmed its validity ; after having placed it in the power of the grantee to make sale of the conceasion, which he did do, to innocent purchasers tor a large consideration ; after the holders of the privilege have been induced to make heavy investmenta in the undertaking, relying upon the decrees and the pledged faith of Mexico ; after having made a joint treaty for the protection of the en- terprite. approved by two administrations—it is rather late in the day . as it seems to the undersigned, for Mexi- CO now to say, ‘I repuclate every public act and declara- tion heretofore made growing out of the concession.” Be it so; but im that event, the act will be done, it is hoped, for reasons much more satisfactory and powerful than any the undersigned has yet heard advauced, The undersigned has a very few more words to add. In view of all the circumstances of the affair—also in view of the decrees and public.documents—in short, of all the proceedings of the government of Mexico from first to last, and in view, also. of the investments made by citi- zens of the United States in the enterprise, it is made the duty of the undersigned, by the instructions of his go- vernment, to say to the Mexican government, in the most reepectful language imaginable, that it is the determina- tion of the government of the United States to protect the interests of her citizens who hold the concession re- ferred to, and who have made extensive expenditures to make a transit way, in virtue of that purchase, between the two great cccans The undersigned wishes to be clearly and distinctly understocd upon this point, and, therefore. in obedience to his instructions, repeats—it is the tixed purpose of bis ‘overmment to protect the rights of her citizens, who ave invested their capital in the enterprise, trusting to the obligations of good faith on the part of her sister re- public, ‘The undersigned is most sincerely anxious, aud so is bis government. to see Mexico progress in national protperity. in wealth, in honor and in glory; and hoping she muy attain these great ends. the United States is now and at all times ready to lend her a helping band. It is not true that the United States desires Mexico to saciifice one ivta of her national sovereignty, or one inch of her tetritory, Ail ch» desires, in her intersourse with Mex'co, is, that national faich ou both sides shall be duly observed; apd the idea which is extensively circulated in this count the undersigned regrets to understand, that the United States are disposed to oppress or to in- jure Mexico in the slightest degree, is altogether unjust, upfeunded, and untrue, ‘Tne undersigned finding, upon his arrival here in Octo- ber last, that the convention, as agreed upon between this government and the undersigned. was not altogether acceptable to this country. engaged in a new negotiation with Mr, Ramirez, anxiously boping to modify the exist- ing convention. or to make anew one which would re- move el! obstacles and objections, But inthis hope he is very sorry to say he has had the mortification (o meet with disappointment, Ile was wholly unable to accept the project of a new treaty offered by Mr Ramirez. because he was satisfied it was utterly impracticable to make the transit way be tween the two ecenns upon the plan IH, E. proposed, as the undersigned believed no capitalists would invest money in the scheme whilst the Garay graut was unsettled and Held over them in ferrorem, ‘The project oftered by Mr. Kamirez propored to leave out of view a.together the Garay concession; and the undersigned, knowing that whilst that grant was sn existence, it would form an in- -uperable barrier to the execution of the work, could not yicid his asrent to the scheme. A joint treaty of protection therefore. whilst that concession existed, dirconnected with and independent of it. would be a mere nullity ‘The undersigned. therefore. seeing that obstacle, pro- posed to Mr ttemirez that the undertaking company should etond between Mexico and the Garay concessioa, and should release Mexico from all responsibility growing cut of ibe eame This proposition was rejected by Uis Exeellency. The undersigned again propoved that the undertaking com- pay rhould indemnify the New Orleans association the full amount they hod invested in the undertaking; there- by releasing Mexico from all Uability, and at the same tne doing an act of justice to those persons who had ex- pended large sums of money in the work This project was alao rejected by Mr. Ramirez. except iv a very limit- eddegree. for reasous which were by no means satistac- tory to the undersigned. The undersigned is aware that Mr Ramirez is in tavor of this great improvement, and perceives very clearly the advantages which would result to this and all other countries upon its completion; but at tae same time, the undersigned is convinced that the plan proposed by Mr. Kamirez can never attain the object, as long as the Garay grant is unsettled Every one must know and must acknowledge that public necessity, the wants of commerce, and the pregress of this age. demand the speedy execution of this mag: nificent work. But having despaired of being able to make a mew treaty. which would be more satisfactory to Mexico, the underrigned is desirous that the eonveution of January 25th 1851. may be immediately. submitted to Congross for ite final action. and hopes most sincercly a dec may be bud without delay.

WESTER. Lecation oF THE Uniten States or Antenica, Mexico, April 8, 1852, To the Hon. Danie. Wenster. Secretary of State— Sir—The Tehuantepec Treaty. I regret to say, was re- jected last night by the Chaumber of Deputies, (a bare quorum being present) in a few minutes after it was sub- mitted by the government for consideration. by a vote of teventy-one to one, ‘The result. so far from being a matter of surprise to me. or to any one else in this country, was most confidently anticipated The few deputies who were favorably disposed towards the measure, knowing perfectly well that they would be instantly denounced as traitors to their country. in case they voted for it, deemed it expedient to absent them- selves from the chamber when the vote was taken, Such was the intemperate and uncompromising hos- tility to the Garay grant, that no Mexican. in or out of the chamber, not even those who held a direct interest in it, dared to whisper a single word. In fact. the Deputy who voted for the ratification de- clared his judgment was opposed to it iu every particular: but fearing its rejection might occasion another war be- tween the two countries, be felt compelled to vote tor it It is altogether impossible to make a treaty having the least connection with the Garay grant. The government, the Congress, in short, the whole na- tion, are deadly hostile to the grant; and I am satisfied that feelings of opporition have been constantly encou- raged and -timulated by foreign interference. The Minister of Foreign Relations, as I had the henor to intorm you in my last despatch, a few days ago, put forth a circular addressed to the Diplomatic Corps, attack- ing the grant, as I thought, in the most unfair manner, His motive. as I have no doubt, was to identify himself, in a prominent way, with the rejection of the treaty, boping by that means to obtain popularity, knowing as he did, that the grant was detested by ull parties, is cir- cular found me in bed, suffering from a severe attack of rheumatism.
