IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO. Our City of Mexico Correspondence. . Mextco, Nov. 29, 1861. Negotiations for a Loan by the United States to Mexico Terms of the Treaty Agreed Upon—Nine Millions to be Advanced by the United States on the Pledge of the Public Lands and Church Property—Rejection of the British Preaty—Its Effect Upon the Action of Our Minister—Tem- porary Withdrawal of the Propositions of the United States Goviernment—All Parties Waiting for the Fir.t Move of the Allies, de. Since I last wrote to you events have progressed erapidly. Exciting as the formidable naval and military demonstrations now being direcied against Mexico must ‘Prove to you all in the United States, they are not sur ‘passed in interest by the diplomatic transactions in con- mection with them which have taken place here, and which, owing to my peculiar opportunities, I am, fortu- nately, enabled to place you in possession of. You are not, porbaps, aware that as early as the 2d Df September last, in a despatch received from Mr. Sew. ‘ard, authority was given by Mr. Lincoln to Mr. Corwin, our Minister, to negotiate a treaty with the republic of Moxico for the assumption by the government of ‘the United States of the payment of the interest, at three per cent, of the funded debt of that country due to Mexican bondholders, tho principal of which is estimated » to be abont $62,000,000, for the term of five years from ) the date of the decree recently issued by the government » of Mexico suspending such payment, provided that that \ government would pledge to the United States its faith ‘for the reimbursement of the money, with six per cent Mntercat thereon, to be recured bya lien upon all the public lands and mineral rights inthe Mexican Statosof (Lower California, Chihuahua, Sonora and Sinalonx—the property so pledged to become absolute in the United : Btates.at the expiration of the term of six years, when the treaty was to go into effect, if the reimbursement «should not be made by that time. These instructions ‘were made conditional upon the British and French go- vernments consenting to refrain from hostile proceedings against Mexico until the treaty should be submitted to ‘the United States Sonate, and, in the event of its being Fatified, thon so long thereafter as the interest should be " punctually paid by the government of the United States. I believo that, coincidently with the transmission of this despatch, instructions were forwarded to the United ‘States Ministers in London and Paris to apply to the British and French governments for their assent to the terms thus formalized. Great credit ts due to our Cabinet for the promptitude with which it acted upon the recom- mendations of Mr. Corwin, which, I understand, were themselves based upon the suxgostions of some of the most patriotic members of the Mexican Cabinet. | Matters thus far wore a promising aspect for the - extrication of Mexico from the dangers threatening her from the action of tho European governments. Pending, r however, the negotiation, a circumstance occurred which compelled our Minister to temporarily withdraw his pro- positions. Tho treaty arrenged by Sir Charles Wyke, the British Minister, with Senor Zamacona, tho Secretary of Foreign Affairs of the republic, and which was consider- ed by Mr. Corwin as highly favorable to the latter, wa® | Inid before the Mexican Congress, and rejected by a vote - Ofnearly two toone. As it was now certain that Eng” land would take possession of the ports of Mexico, for the Purpose of securing the debts due to her citizens, and that the fleets of France and Spain would in all proba- bility co-operate, our Ministcc had no other alternative ‘than to suspend the arrangements which he had made ‘with the Maxican governme:t. 1 should state that these had resolved themselves into a loan to Mexico by our go- ‘verpment of five millions of doliars, payable in monthly » 4nstalments of one-half million per month, and secured ‘dy the pledge of all the public Iands, mineral rights and church property. In addition to this, it was agrecd, on bebalf of the United States, to ‘make a further loan of four millions of dollars, ‘to be paid-in sums of one-half million every six months, and to be secured in like manner as the five millions. ‘This reduced the amount of the loan originally proposed from eleven to nine millions. ‘Tho rejection of the British treaty, before referred toy compelled Mr. Corwin, as I have stated, to refrain from completing this arrangement. 1t is understood to be his gnteation, howover, to again renew his propositions, in ‘the event ofthe European Powers offering to relinquish Possession of the Mexican ports, and all further claims ‘upon this-country, on the payment of the interest on their dobts, and security being given for the payment of he principal. ‘The treaty embodying these arrangements is a very able document, and shows, on the face of it, that in hastening ‘to the assistance.of Moxico, in this her hour of difficulty» our government has beon actuated by no selfish or interest" @d motives. The terms of the loans are such as to leave her ample time to acquit hevself of the obligations which she will have incurred to us—that is, providing her government is really bent on the reforms announced in President Juarez’s decree of the 17th of July last and the explanatory. circular that accompanied it. I regret that I cannot procure a copy of the treaty; but the following are, ag nearly as I can gather, the heads of it:— Article 1. The two loans, amounting together to nine maillions, to be paid in the sums aud at the periods above stated, in the current coin of the Unit ‘States, or in ‘Ddonds, with coupons, bearing interest at the rate of six per cent per annum, payable at the pleasure of the gov- ernment at any time within twenty years from their date. Arts, 2.and 3. Mexico to give bonds for the repayment of said loans, bearing ou their {aco the of the pub- lic lands and mineral rights above specified, with tho in- forest thereon. Said bonds tobe payable in five years from the date thereof, to bear iuterest at the-rate of six per cent, and to be payable semi-annually at the Treasury of the United states of America. Art. 4 appoiuts a Board of five commissioners, three to be named by Mexico and two by the United States, to Fealize the amounts loane! by the United states to Moxi- co from the sale of the public lands an! nationalized mort- main property pledged for their -epayment. Articles.5, 6, 7 and § reg :la.e the powers of said com- ‘missioners, logalize the tiles given by them to parchasers ‘of the public lands and other property, prescribe the na- tare of (ho cath and th» amouat of the bonds to be given ‘by them for the faithful pe. formance of theic duties, aud fix the maximum of their salaries ($5,000 per annum). Art. 8 fixes @ term to the duties of the board, on the ee. the debt created by the treaty and the in- torest reon, Art. 9 appoints depositaries for the redeipt of the accruing from the sales of the public land, the said itarios to be jointly approved of by the Presi- . ont of Moxion and the Muaistor of the Umited stata, Fixes also the manner in which said moneys shall bo transmitted to and paid into the Treasury of the United States. The above, as nearly as 1 can ascertain, ate the provi sions of the treaty. They afford the government, as you will see, the opportunity of carrying out its professions of ‘a dosire to acquit itself of its obligations towards its foreign * creditors without imposing on it any unreasonable or ‘onerous responsibilities, At the same time the moral sup- port afforded to it by the existence of such a treaty. with the ponalties attaching to the non-fulfilment of its condi- tions, will impart to the presont liberal administration a cohesion and strongth which none of its predecessors have enjoyed. The question is, will England and France give their consent to the emancipation of Mexico from the trammels in which they at present hold her? I leave Spain out of view, because there is no doubt that she wil! studiously oppose every proposition that may have a * tendency to defeat the hopes that she entertains of ro- gaining tho splendia colonial empire that she forfeited through her avarice and her cruolties. On this point sit is impossible to pronounce an opinion until events further develope thomeslves. From what has already occurred I am disposed to think that the govorament of Great Britain will display moderation in ite treatment of this unhappy coumtry. Tho treaty solntly agreed to by Sir Charles Wyke and Senor Zama- ona evinced on the part of the former a desire to con- « ciliate as far as possible the difficulties in which Mexico Js placed. It was very unfortunate that the Mexican Con- gress should have rejected this treaty ,as it not only offer, ed a solution of the difference with England, but opened a door to an amicable settiemont with the other Powors, An to the famous deereo which led to the cessation of diplomatic relations with Fngland and France, it may havo boon imprudent; but it was at all events honost—r qualification that cannot usually be accorded to the acts of Mexican governments. Every one acquainted with ‘the condition of public affairs hero must see that it was Impossible for the present liberai administration to fulfil punotually its obligations towards it foreign creditors and continue to maintain itself in power, Was it not, there- fore, more honorable and dignified for it to say that it preferred suspending fora period of two years the paymont of its debts than to incur the humiliation of being compelled to ask for furthor delays? 1 beliove such to be the opinion of our Minister, and such, no doubt, would, at any other period , be the opinion of all the governments interested. The opportunity offered by the domestic ombarrassments of the United States has, how- ever, placed the matter in a now light, and it is not im. probable that self-interest, and not ® sense of justice o moderation, may influence the decisions Of the latter. And yot thore is much in the character of these claims that would induce honest and fair dealing governments to honitate before employing the alternative of arms for « tholr enforgement. Jt ia woll ascortained that nearly NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JA = ‘ y the whole of the amount which makes up what is called ‘he British Convention is composed of épeculations purely Mexican, and having no just title to the protection of the British government. And the most ¢xtra- ordinary feature of the case is that whilst Grest Britain, through fraudulent statements, has been per- suaded to throw the shield of her protection over these spurious Moxican dobts, English subjects who havo suf- fered grievous wrongs, and whose claims are legitimate, have been unable to get them considered by their own government, from the want of powerful friends to aid them at home. When I state that, out of tho $5,000,000 claimed under the British Convention, thore are only four English creditors figuring for a sum of $206,628 85, and two foreigners, entitled to English protection, claim- ing $1,044,411 29, it will be seen that more than two- thirds of these claims are fictitious on the face of them, ‘80 far as nationality is concerned. They are purely Mexi. can and Spanish in their origin, and have beou trumped up in a manner which reflects discreait alike on proced” ing Mexican administrations and on the nation which is now seeking to enforce thom against the only progressive and honest government that Mexico has had within the fast quarter of a century. e Wo are now awaiting here in great anxiety the further developement of the intentions of the allies, and the form. which their demands will take. If thoy are dictated by moderation and humanity, 60 far as England and France are concerned, there is a probability that, with the aid of the United States, matters will be so arranged as again to place Moxico in the path of consolidation and progress.

The unlikelihood of there being an opportunity of writ- ing by any steamer for sevoral days suggests the proprie- ty of my sending a few items by the brig Mary Hartly, which sai!s for New York to-day or to-morrow. The new year has been ushered in by news from all quarters. A Spanish steamer arrived last night at Ma- tanzas from New York, with General Miramon and three aids on board, and the mail steamer from Cadiz arrived to-day about noon; but the latter brings no later Europe- an dates than the 10th ult. The news from the United States (New Yor« Huratp, 24th December), in regard to the Slidell and Mason affair, appears to have relieved the minds of our merchants here, who had begun to think a war with England inevitable; for no later than yesterday wo were informed thut the Cabinet at Washington had re- solved not to surrender the Southern Commissioners. Further details of the'landing of the Spanish forces at Vera Cruz have been received since my last letter; but the only facts of interest I can gather are, that the yellow fever had broken out among the troops, and, from that cause and accidents, the number of men who had died up to December 20 amounted to twenty-four. The Ayuntamiento, or city government of Vera Cruz, had decamped, notwithstanding the not very consistent decla- ration in the papers here that that respectable and worthy body of functionaries had supplicated the Spaniards to take immediate possession of their city. Finally, we have the proclamation of President Juarez. — NEWS FROM THE STATE CAPITAL. Noah A. Childs Received ,"t° the Demo- cratic Party—An Attempt ,*° Repeal The Bishop Hughes Ecclesiast,’*!

An interesting ceremony took place at Congress Hall In + evening, it being nothing more or less than the initiation into the demc::a ic party of a member of the Legislature who had reper © of his sins for leaving the democratic ranks and actiug with the republicans. The following call was circulated in the afternoon, sigued by a large number of the straight democrats:— All democratic members of the Axsembly who sympa- thizo with our repentant brother Noah A. Childs in his severe illness caused by the flagrant ingratitude of his late republican allies, are roquested to meet in room No. 5, at Congress Hall, at eight o’clock, to express their condolence in his behalf in this the dark hour of his political history, N, B,—All members are requosted to appear dressed in mourning, At the hour fixed upon a large number found their way into the room, and were organized by electing Dr. Kinney chairman, and Mr. Loutrel secretary. Mr. Coddington was the principal spokesman of the occasion. He ro viewed briefly the history of the partis since the forma- tion of the government, and concluded by welcoming Mr- Childs back into the only party that had and'coald safely administer the affairs of the country. He was followed by Mr. Olvany and others, The ceremony concluded with the usual form of initiation, whereupon Mr. Childs ‘was declared a good democrat, and promised horeafter to act in good faith with the democracy of the Assembly. The tone of this document is so very calm that it might | besaid to be timid. The President says he does not do- clare war unloss the invaders should go too far. He Promises to settle the claims against the republic, and says the government has been always willing to do go; but» ho says, “If those good intentions are despised, and if any attempt should be made to humble Mexico, dismomber her territory, interfere in her internal government, or perhaps extinguish her nationality,’ then he calls upon all Moxicans to bury their hostilities to one another, and unite against the common enemy. Under the circum- stances, invaded by three European Powers at once, I do not know that Juarez could have done better. The: er or nonsense in his proclamation, and appearance of timidity in it, which is very excusuble, it is straightforward and sensible. In consequence of the unexpected departure of the city government from Vera Cruz, General Gasset has felt him- ae compelled to organize another, and has issued the following PROCLAMATION, Desiring to remedy as much, and as soon as possible, the injury which may accrue to commerce in consequence of the total abandonment of the treasury offices by the functionaries who had charge of them, on the entry of the Spanish forces, I have resolved on the following:— Art. 1. The Custom House of Vera Cruz is reorganized, provisionally, on the basis of an administrator, an audi- tor of accounts and astorekeeper, selected from the ad- ministrative corps of tho army and navy, two inspectors and one section of carbineers: wifi of vessels in port is may Art. 3, Tho entry of goods will be made by prov: thoir conformity to the invoices and manifests. = Art. 4, Goods discharged, excopting those which will De montioned in art. 6, will enter and remain, of neoossi- ty, until new arrangements, in the custom house stores, without paying any store charge for thus remaining. Art. 5. Goods which are porishable, eatables, an hardware, machinery, inflammable materials, drugs and mediciues, smail parcels, and also those which from thoir weight and size would impose additional expenses on the merchant if he should store them, may be discharged on the wharf and carried away by their respective con- signees. Art. 6. For the despatch of goods mentioned in the coding articlo, the interested parties will present, w! the discharging of the vessel begins, a request to the ad- ministrator, accompanied by @ security two mer- chants in the city, who solemnly undertake to be respon- sible for the payment of tho duties, determined in the tariffs and order in force in the Custom House on the 14th instant, and in the manner which shall be presently Prescribed. A committee composed of the Consuls of Englund, the United States, France and Spain will certify in the sald request in regard to tho worthiness of tha vouchers’ siguatures. Art. 7. For exportation the samo formalities will be observed, and the same guarantess roquired for the pay- ment of duties, as dotormined in art. 6. Art. 8. As s0on as circumstancos permit, thore will be &@ more adequate and complete organization of the Custom House, and new arrangements will be made for the de- spatch of business. In view of the total abandonment of the Post Office by the employes who were there on the arrival of tho Spanish forces, have det one o in urge of 1 rier Department division w: also take , in the interim, of the postal duties the city, restricumg the duty for the present to the de- spatching of corres; between Vera Cruz and foreign countries, and in conformity with the tariff in operation on the 14th inst. Prepayment will be made by means of postage stamps, furnished by the Post Office. Letters for the interior will remem unsent wntil they can be forwarded with safety. IANUEL GASSET, Field Marshal, Commander-in-Chief Spanish forces. Vena Cavz, Dec. 23, 1861. For the same reasons as those alleged above, Goneral Gasset has appointed aCourt of Trade (Tribunal de Comer- cio) to take cognizance of all mercantile squabbies which may arise. Spaniards still insist that they found w ‘ds of @ hundred pieces of heavy cannon in the forts, it of which latter they likewise insist were in excellent order, and capable of affording a prolonged resistance. Will the Mexicans give up ir capital in the same manner? Veremos. ‘The French fleet is still hore, and our streets are alive with (real) Zouaves and yrs d'Afrique. Two more steamers (tho Montezuma and another) have come from Martinique, making the fleet here six or seven in number, ‘Tho English fleet has not yet made its appearance, and whether the French will wait for them or not Ido not know.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. ‘The disinterested and patriotic course your journa has alway winced towards the Eacelsior Brigade in- duces mo to ask, in justice to ite officers, to correct the erroneous statement made in this day’s Heraun, that «the officers of his brigade are anxious to have in his place aman of military experience as woll as energy.” I unhesitatingly assert this to be utterly untrue, for there is not a commander in the whole voluntoor service more esteemod by his mon and oflicers than Gen. Sickles, and I know that almost every one of his wou! emphatically protest against any measure removing him from bis command, in like manner as they have pro- tested almost unanimously against being commissioned by hia Excellency Governor Morgan, JOHN T. BRUEN, Acting Assistant Adjutant Goneral Excelsior Brigade, New Yona, Jan. 17, 1962, There is an important bill now before tho Senate, in troduced by Senator Connolly a few days ago, which, th far, has escaped general notice, It will be rememberod that during the reign of Know Nothingism, under tho excitement and feeling raised against the Catholics by the controversy in the secret councils of ‘Sam,’ as they were then called, as woll as the Brooks controversy with Bishop Hughes, a bill passed both branches of the Legislature, known to the public as The Bishop Hughes Ecclesiastical Tenure act, its object being to prevent the Catholic priests and bishops from holding property belonging to the church. The bill now before the Senate ig for the purpose of repoaling that act, and reinstating the law in oxistenc to that period. The goneral public have grown wiser since the passage of that law, in 1855. In fact, thoro is a great doubt about the law as then od having the ondors: ment of the mass of the people. Ita passage was one o those instances that history records of all governmonts whero the law making power is carried away by preju- dice, eloquence and zeal of the advocates of a measure when the calm and sober judgment would have told them otherwise. It was ono of those instances whero our rulers step out of their way to intorfere by legislative enactment with an ecclesiastical or re- ligious denomination. Its repeal at this time will be urged as an act of justice toa ious sect that has stood and unwavering for the Union in its dark- estand most trying hour. Although but little has been said about it as yet, but it novertheless bids fair to be- come one of the important moasures of the session, and will no doubt arouse a bitter opposition. Resolutions have been the order of the day in the As- sembly. First we hada report from the Judiciary Com- mittee on the subject of taxation and providing for the expenses of tho army in the shape of a recommendation to Congress to immediately take important and decisive stops. The resolutions were mado special order for next Wednesday, when we shall doubtless have an inter- esting debate. The public is becoming excited over the delays and embarrassments of Congress in regard to the adoption of some financial measure at once. Judging from the expressions that fell from the lips of both leading republicans and democrats in debate this morn- ing, there is @ bitter feeling and strong indignation ex. isting in the brousts of nearly all here over the foolish and silly debate in Congress over tlie nogro when we aro on the brink of a financial precipice. There would be but little trouble at the an time in securing tho passage of areaclution exhibiting that feeling in a form that ‘would surprise the abolition demagogues who are dis- — the couatry by their harangues in the halls of grees. The next question that camo up wes over the dove- lopement of corruption and peculation in the contracts ‘as exhibited by the reports in Congress, iustructing our Senators and Congressmen to take some decided action upon it. These resolutions were adopted, and the Gover- nor ordered to transmit them forthwith to the members of Congress and Senators from this State. From this the debate turned upon the resolution urg- ing the governmentto establish a system of exchanging prisoners. The Speaker left the chair, and advocated a modification of the resolution, position that if an arrangoment for a general system of exchango of prison- ers was entered into it would at once the rights of the South ag beiligerents and prevent punishment of the leading rebels as traitors to Sayre ae they ever be captured. Mr. Ogden, democrat, fol- lowed in nearly the same strain, although he desired it to pad od over for Konetapemon nag 2 Fy Stetson and Bartlett spoke to the question, former taking a different view from either of the other speakers, finally postponed until some future day. few remarks that were made on the suvjoct indicate very plainly that the subject will be handled with a great deal ot ability, with full as‘much, if not with more abili- ty than it wor House of Representatives at terest. There was a longthy debate on powers Su isors, brought out on the considerat: of @ bill authorizing the Board of Supervisors of Kings county to yw money toreliove the families of volunteers. ‘The Senate Committoe on Cities and Villages mot Mat evening, and took up the bill to abolish the concort sa- 5 loons, and, finally, agreed to hold s meeting on next ‘Thursday afternoon, for tho purpose of re c rested make their a ‘The Metropolitan Cab bill was also taken up. Senator Bradley, who introduced the Dill, appeared, advocat!

RECEPTION OF THE NEWS OF THEIR RELEASE AT BERMUDA. From the Bermudian of January 8th we copy the fol- lowing paragraph :— Hor Britannic Majeaty’s steamer Racer arrived here from New York on Friday last. Her advices are to tho ‘29th ultimo, and contain news of the highest moment. Tho American Cabinet has acceded to the just demands of Great Britain, viz :—the restoration to hor protection of the four persons forcibly taken as prisoners from the steamer Tront. This decision must, we think, be hailed with satisfaction by all parties. We are thereby spared from the apprehensions of the horrors of addi- tional war,and the Americans have shown their good sense in thus complying with the very moderate demands made to them. New Yorx Acapmuy or Mvsic.—The ‘Ballo in Mas: chera’’ was given to a magnificent house last night, the receipts being larger than on any former occasion for many soasons past. The cast of the piece was the same as whon given on the opening, Miss Kellogg, Mise Hink- ley, Mme. Strakosch, Brignoli, Mancusi, Barili and Du- breufl in the principal roles. This being the closing per. formance of the present short season, the largoneas of the attendance was in some degree to bo accounted for by it; but we have no doubt that it was also in a great measure duoto the increasing interest that is being taken by our public in Miss Kellogg, whose recent brilliant success in the “Traviata” is naturally a subject’ of pride with them. ‘The opera went off admirably, all the artists, but more especially Mise Kellogg and Signor Brignoli, putting for- ward their best efforts. Miss Hinkley as the Pago, a cha- racter which she has made hor own, sang the light and sparkling music of the part charmingly. Tho inspiriting effect of athronged and fashionable house made itself felt in the superior manner in which the entire opera was rendered. To-day tho troupe go to Philadelphia, where they will perform this evening. The next musical event to which we have to look forward is Mr. Gottschalk’s first concert, the date of which, however, is not as yet yet fixed. Twa Nationa, Guarp Baxp Concent.—The National Guard Band, Seventh regiment, C. G. Graffuler, director, will give another of their series of promenade concerts’ at the regimental armory, to-night. The performance will embrace many of the popular and fashionable pieces of the day, including selections from the new operas. The high reputation of the band, as demonstrated in their Provious concerts, will no doubt be fully sustained on this occasion. Snricxyey's Circvus.—Eaton Stone, the celebrated rider, takes a benefit at the old Bowery theatre (Stickney’s Cir- cus) this evening. Mr. Thomas Hyor, the well known Pugilist, appears for the first time in public on this occa- sion.
