They richly deserve all ‘hat bas boen said so far against them, for their con- duct has been shown to have been of a most decided par- tiean character. It was natural enough to suppose that demands £0 absurd as those would not have boon acceded ‘to by any persons. But what had tho poor fellows of Vera Cruz to do? ‘ihe force was over them, and they agreed to do what is clearly and mathematically an impossibili- ty. The French Minister did not bolieve they would have ‘agreed to such absurd demands, and therefore maje them fm order to bring on trouble if possible, The English Minieter did the business through sheer carolessness, if not from seme other motive still less flattering to his ca- pacities. The foreign creditors are no better off’ than be- fore the fieets hove in sight off San Juaa de Ulloa, On the 7th we had a war forced loan put upon us still more aggravating than that of May last. The present Joan is for the sole purpose of carrying on the cam- puign against Vera Cruz, The loan is, a3 usual, smothered beneath the name of a contribution The American residents here have sent @ strong protest to Mr. Black, our Consul, on this subject, which the Consul has handed to the government, without drawing out a weply as yet. It ie more than probable the loan will be enforced to the last. If it be it will produce at least + $10,000,000 in the whole country. Already the loan has ME boon made the subject of a heavy speculation. Some ca- Ui pitalists have bought it up; and if Miramon gains the day they will assuredly mako six to eight millions out of the business. Foreigners as well a8 natives are required to pay. I doubt if any protest will be fied against it by the British Minister. ‘Miramon has done everything in his power, and go hay: bis friends, to meke it appear that his government is popular with the commercial and foreign population. Oa tho Sth he gave a grand dinner at the Mineria, at which ja! the fercign Ministers were invited. ‘he dinner was lgrant afiair, as you will Bee by the report of it which Jenclose. ‘The dimner at the Mincria was followed by a ball at the Lorja onthe 12th. The Iattor was a brilliant adair, but most shabbily shoved upon the mombers of the Lorja. is appears tbat, aftor asking for and receiving a loan of the Club Rooms for tho ball, some friends of Miramon, jaiso members of tho Club, wok tho liberty of inviting Airamon to a bali which the pablic bad expected he was ong to give himself. Miramou gladly accepted.

It is rumored that the British Minister pn this occasion took somo yood advice, and refased to mix further in busincas with tho Vera Craz people.
