FOREY, THE LATEST NEWS, &e., &e., &o. ‘The importance and the probable political consequences f,Mbe expedition of the French to Mexico forming one of ne most remarkable cyents in the history of the New Vorld, we have decided to give our readers a brief his- p eketch of the principal facts of that expedition, ith an accurate map of that country, upon which they fan follow, date by date and city by city, the various hovements of the French. ‘In order to give more perspicuity to our narrative, we we divided it under the following heads:—First, origm the differences between Mexico and the Allies; second, tripartite treaty and its failure; third, expeditions of ne French under Gen. Lorencez; fourth, the French un- r General Forey. GIN OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEXICO AND THE ALLIRS. Sinee the expedition which ended by the taking of the of San Juan de Ulioa by the French, England, Spau France had concluded with the government of Mexi- ) weveral treaties, all of whieh were broken by the t Presidents brought to power by the ebb and de of a chronic aparchy. During tweuty-tive years over :xty Presidents had succeeded cach other, none of whom ever able either to make a treaty respected or to beure to the country, even for a short period, that order hd security as indispensable to the existence of a repub- easto thatef an empire. To speak of France alone, signed within the inst ten years three special conven- ons with Mexico—one in 1863, one in 1865, the other in 59,'all of which were violated a few days afterwards, ultimatum presented by M. de Saligny to Juarer the same fate. Juarez premised everything, Kept none of his premises. The money raised upen | custom house to pay the indemnity due to Fravce and land, and deposited to that effect in the Mont de Picte ‘the city of Mexico, was stolen by order of Juarez. while French and English citizens were the vetims @0 untold rapacity and violence. To the system @& kidnapping and holding for ransom, to which every yner was subject more or less, the Juarez government substituted barefaced plunder of the entire population , d on some occasions by wholesale destruction of pro. yy and massacre, In twelve months over one hundred glib and French merchants were despoiled and driven it of the country and thirty were assassinated. ‘Tho of the natives of these two countries were crushed hoary taxes and persecuted to ruch a degree that they medihemselves self-defence In presence of such ta of violence, of such a disregard for the rights Reutrals, for stipulated agreement, and for the Iw of nations, it would haye been cowardly for Kuro. Lan governments to remain silent avy longer. In conse. ce, treaty was pasted in Loudon on the Sistof tober ,2461, signed by England, France and Spain, in it was said that these three Powers, finding them- ives compelled by the arbitrary and vexatious conauct he authorities of the republic of Mexico to demand for the persens and properties of their subje ‘combined their common action inte a joint expedition that country At the same time an offer was made t# the Unite! to join that convention, under the plea that Mr ch had declared in one of his messages that It wae the Interests of the country to see the downfall of in Mexico, and ita seashero provinces in the pos of this country. But Mr. Seward thought that might have been accomplished justly, to th - benefit of the United States, woukd be wholly unjosti TRE TRIPARTITE TREATY AND OTS PATLUKR. ‘twas agreed between the Allies that the amennt of the one to be sent to Mexico ehould motexoved ten thousand . Spain, who, in consequence of her affinisy of race 1 community of language, waa supposed to have a (ter influence in Mexico than any uther Power, was by consent placed at the’ head of the expedition. qnota of men was fixed at seven thousand, and that anee at three thousand. Ax to Fogland, whose yo- snment was reluctant to interfere in the bome affaire of Mexicans, it was agreed that sho fhowld only supply Means of transportation and a few sarines. 40 sooner were these terms of agreement « veral Prim, without waiting for the coope mee, hastened to Vera Cruz with al! his took ponsetwion of that city before neh had sailed. He immediately placed f im communication with the Mexican Jawderr, one vhom, Echeverria, a minister of Juarez, war hie rele + abd aasumed to himeelf the entire managemen expedition.

Admiral Jurion de la Gravicre, who, with Benoit de Saligny had charge of the diplomatic transactions, protested against such a system, and wrote to the Yrench govern- ment for instructions.” Communteations were exchanged on that occasion between the courts of France, Sngland and Spain, in which the course of General Prim was biamed, and he was recommended rapidity and energy in the execution of the programme. General Prim bim- self, in a letter to Jurien de la Graviere, acknowledges the necessity of a change of policy ana more y igor ii the exe- cution, "But Juarez knew that by flattering the vanity of the Spanish General and opening pros}ects to bis ambi- tion be would easily overcome bis resistance apd Dring bim to bis views. This he aeoomplisbed with an ability which does the greatest honor to his diplomatic talents. The convention of La Soledad , into the secret of which General Prim was the only one admitted, was the fruit of that influence. ‘That convention did not allude to any | of the grievances which have brought the Allies to Mexico, nor settle any of the dispnted points. It simply stated that the Mexican flag would float beside that of the Allies in all Mexican cities; that the Spanish and French troops would be allowed to leave the deadly climate of. the tierras calientes for Tohuacan, an inland city, free from epidemic diseases, and that in case the negotiations, which were to be opened in the month of April, were not ended by the settlement of all difficulties , the Allies bg W back to Vera Cruz—that is to say, expose their iers to certain death. Such were the | preliminaries agroed to, under the pressing influence of onsen sets by the representatives of England, France a in. ‘These preliminaries were no sooner transmitted to Fu rope than Frauce declared that they were inadmissible and repudiated them entirely. New instructions were sent, and the expedition was ordered to enter upon a new phase and to assume anew attitude. Fngiand and Spain— the first on account of hor ropugnance to commit herself to the internal aflairs of Mexico, the second to abide by the policy of General Prim—did not at first lose all of a friendly settlement. Henes they did not as readily as France repudiate the bumiliating conditions of the | convention @ Ia Soledad. Hut both Ministers—Lord | Russell and Calderon Collantes—thought that the conduct | of General Prim had altogether been wanting in decision | and energy, and wrote accordingly to Mr. Wyke and to the Connt of Reuss, Gen. Prim himself acknowledged the truth these oheervations in a letter to Admiral Jurien de la Graviere, dated March 21, 1m which he declared that the Allics wonld in no manner submit to the vexations of the Maricans ner to the haughty language of General Poblado, and manifested the desire to obtain by force what he could not get through negotiation. ‘To the great amazement, however, of the French Ad- miral, two days ntter, on the 224 of March, he received vther letter of General Prim, in which that General to him bis desire to withdraw his troops from This sudden change of sentiment was attributed at the time to the arrival of Almonte and to his advo- v of & monarchieat candidate for Mexico. Almonte, an interview witb Louis Napoleon in Billault, the French Minister, who proved, in made in the Corps Legislatif on the 26th of June, that they were utterly withont foundation, that Almoute had received a0 iission from the Emperor of Frauce, and still Jess that of imposing an Austrian monarch upon the Mexiran people According to the statements given by Mr Biliault in the same siting, it would appear that between the 2ist and 25d of March, 1862, General Prim bad a secret inter view with Mr. Wyke and Mr. Eehoverria, his uncle, from whieh M, de Saligny and Jurien de la Graviere were ex. | cluded. ‘The questions debated in that meeting have never been divulged. it is, however, believed that both Spain and England were opposed to an armed intervention in xico—the first on account of ber friendly relatieus | with the Mexican loaders, the second because she feared to become entangled in the affairs of Mexico, for which she always professed great reluctance, France, on the contrary, persisted in her former views, and said that | nothing DOt a military expedition to the city of Mexico would secure to the Allies the execution of treaties and the respect and protection due to foreigners EXPEDITION OF THE FRENCH UNDER LORENCEZ. The converition of La Soledad was broken. Admiral Jorien de Ia Graviere, who had acted the principal part in it, withdrew, and left the diplomatic post to Saligny. Mr. Wyke went back to Londow, and Gen. Prim, after having, ‘on the 9th of April, 1862, announced officially to the Mexi can government that he had not been able to agree with France upon the laterpretation to be given to the treaty of London, withdrew also, and brought his troops back to Ravana. We arrived on the 8th of December, 1801, and left Mexico on the 10tb of April, 1562, just four mouths after he had landed at Vera Cruz. The French troops in Mexico would then amount to about 7,000—2,400 who arrived originally with Jurien de la Graviere and 3,600 brought afterwards by Geveral de Lo reneez, who had been entrusted with the command of the | whole corps. His allies bad no sooner loft Mexico than, without losing a moment's time, be advanced from Tebow enn, where he bad his headquarters, upon Puebla. This was on the 20th of April.

General de Lorencez, who had maintained himself, with hiv lice army of 7.000 men, in Mexico, and kept most of the time his communication with Vera Cruz open, wae recalled, It wae decided that an old yeteran, General Forey, would take his place, ana be followed by 30,000 picked Drench soldiers. The resvlutions of the French government were immediately put into practice, On the 25th of September, 1862, General Forey arrived on board the Line%ol- battle ship Tarenve at Vera Cruz, any issved - clamation, in which he said tt was not against the Moxie cau people that he came w make war, but against a Sand futof men “without scruples and without c uaclence who had Mgampled upon the rights ef men and had g verned by @ sang inary system of terror ”’ In another proclamation, dated November 3, he repeats the same assurances. ‘Ihe Freneb army,” he says, ‘has not come to make war on the Mexican people, but on wo the the government whose melauchoiy situation is a proof of its igcapacity to do good” And a lit. Ue further he exclaims, “What, in fact, is to be seen in your towns? Houses $n ruins, impassable streets, and stagnant water vitiaiing the air, What are your roads? Boge and sloughs, which horses and carriages ean not pass withont danger.” What is your admin‘stration?

One, under the General Douat, took the road to Orizaba: the oth rder of General Bazaine, with General Bert r, under as bie vanguard, took the road which jeads from Vera Craz w | Jalapa and Perote. In looking at the map published aleve, it will be seen that the posts occupied by the French are well selected, and distributed with a view to supporteach other. The expedition was divided into two lines, one running south east, the other northeast, and forming summit of which is at Vera Cruz, and the base between Perote and Orivaba. On the southern side of the triangle—betwee Croz and Orizaba-—the French b posts, viz—T ad, Passa Aucho, ne rdova, from wh the Mexican gueritias com bined would not dislodge them. On the northeast of the same triangle they have taken possession of Huento Nactonal, Jaiapa, Corro Gordo, and are believed to be now at Perote, ‘The holding of these positions, some of which are naturally fortified, constitates for the French a very strong footing In the country, and it would take a very formidable army to drive them out from these pointe. ‘The left division of the army, under command of Gene- Tal Doun!, met on the 14th of December the guerillas of Carvajal, who were dispersed in atew moments, He is now said to be ata little place calied Telexaoa, twenty- four miles distant from Puebla.
