THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRArnrniLAILnnAt MONDAY, JULY 15, 18G7. IMFORTm STATR DRPiETSEUT DOCD- Coinmnndcr Roe Katnined br the Gov eminent The Seizure or Santa Anna Approved. Memornndnm Dbfabtmkwt or Statb, Waibipotor, July 12, 1867 On the nth of July, instant, a paper was presented to the Secretary of 8'ate, which bears the signature of t. Naph,tgyt. Mr. Naphegyl de ciTbes himself an attorney-in-fact nod confiden tial agent In the United States of Senor Antonio lope de Santa Anna, and In that oharaoter in ites the attention of this department to certain transactions which recently occurred in the Onlf of Mexico, "by which," as Mr. Naphegyl says, the said Senor Knnta Anna has been prevented from complying with the expressed wishes of his fellow-ciilzsns with regard to the political affairs of their common oonnty (meaning Mexico), and by which, almost Immediately thereafter, he was deprived of his personal liberty, and his life Itself placed in jeopardy." The paper, in the first plaoe, implies a necesity for Tinting some censnre opon the Uonsul of the United dates at Vera Crux, and Commander F. A. Roe, of the United States steamer Taoony, eta. tioned in that port; and, In the second place," sag. rests proceedings against the government of Alexioo, to procnre the restoration of Senor Santa Anna and his Secretary, Senor Vldal y Kivas, Within the jurisdiction ot the United States. Two distinct grievances seem to be complained of on behalf of Senor Santa Anna, one of which Is represented to have been suffered abont the 7th of June Inst, at the port of Vera Orua, and the other abont the lath of the same month, at the port of Sisal, both of which places are In Mexico. I shall examine first the proceedings which are alleged to have taken place at Vera Oruz, and afterward the proceedings which are represented to have occurred at Sisal. We are to ascertain the facts upon which the com plaints are based from certain documents which accompany Mr. Naphegyl's communication, from official reports of the U. S. consnl and the naval commander at Vera Cruz, and from documents which have been submitted by the minister of the republic of Mexico, ail of which papers were gathered into the Department in a somewhat hur ried manner. The tenor of Mr. Naphegyl's papers In relation to the transaction at Vera Urui is, that the Virginia is a United States mail steamship; that he sailed from New York under commando! Capt. Deaken on the 82d of May last for Vera Oruz, having as passengers Senor Santa Anno; his secre tary, Senor Vldal y Rlvas; Mr. Hans, Baron Cas par Van Nostllz, his interpreter; Mr. Louis Lud wltz, and Mr. Edward Gottlieb, all of whom are described as belonging to the salt of Senor Santa Anna. It is complained that on the 6th of Jan Mr. Saulnier, the United States Consul, went on board the Virginia, together with her Britannlo Ma jesty's Consnl, Mr. Medford, where they were In. trodnced by Captain Deaken to Senor Santa Anna. That a conversation was had by the Consuls with Senor Santa Anna upon the policy which was in tended to be pnrsued by him while In Vera Crnz. That the American Consul professed to Senor Santa Anna his sincere support, saying that at first, not having known his views, the Consul was opposed to Senor Santa Anna being received there; but now, having heard them from the Senor In person, the Consul would do all in his power to favor them. That after an interview of three boars, the Consul left the steamer in the most friendly manner. That afterwards, on the 7th of Jnne, Commander F. A. Roe, ot the United States steamer Tacony, and Commander Murray Alns ley, ot the British steamer Jason, boarded the Virginia fiom a launch which carried the United States and British flags. That Commander Roe asked and obtained an In terview with Senor Santa Anna and Invited him to accompany the commander on board the Ta cony. That Senor Santa Anna asked a reason. That the commander replied that he had no rea sons to give; that Senor Santa Anna must go with him, or the Consnl wonld take Senor Santa Anna by foroe, at the same time calling the British sail ors who were on board the Virginia. That Senor Santa Anna asked if he was a prisoner of war to the American and British men-of-war. Commander Roe replied he might consider it as he pleased; he mast go willingly or the commander would force him, and roughly laid his hand on the arm of Senor Santa Anna. When some one represented to Commander Roe that Senor Santa Anna was a cripple and had only one leg, the commander replied, in a profane and offensive manner, that he would take Senor Santa Anna if he had to break his other leg. That Senor Santa Anna then yielded to the presaaslon of one of bis suite and went with Commander Roe on board the Tacony, and the commander directed the Virginia to come alongside the Tacony the next morning at 1-2 o'clock, at Sacriflcios. That Senor Vldal v Kivas. on learning these Droceed- ings, visited the American consul, who pretended entire ignorance of the transaction, and, refusing to receive any protest, said that Senor Santa Anna, on the next day by 12 o'clock, wonld again be placed on board of the Virginia. That on the next day, the 8th, Senor Santa Anna was sent on board the Virginia by a boat from the Tacony. That the Virginia then proceeded to sea, and was attended by a boat from the Tacony twenty miles, when her pilot was discharged, but not without a close personal search made by an Officer of the Tacony; and Commander Roe there upon directed Captain Deaken to take Senor Santa Anna anywhere he pleased to go, not in Mexico. The object and purposes of Senor Santo Anna in visiting Vera Crux are represented by Mr. Naphe gyl to have been entirely peaceful and innocent, and in perfect harmony with the policy of the United States in regard to Mexico. Mr. Naphegyl denounces the proceedings of the Consul and of Commander Roe as officious, and in violation of the law and comity of nations. The tenor of the document submitted by Mr. Ni- Iibsgyl in retard to the occurrence st Sisal is as fol ows: The 'Virginia having been left at sea by Oom .nHnr kna. arooaeded on her return voyage towards New York, and touched at Sisal on the eleventh of June, at three o cock in the afternoon That on the twelfth of Jnne, the commander of the Liberal foroes . Mon.t Hiaal wanton board the Viminia. and aid he had orders from General Peresa to take Senor Santa Anna on shore. Xha captain of the Virginia re fused to deliver him np. stating that he was a paasen er in transit, and a prisoner to the United States, aul should be delivered at tbe city of New York. Mexican gunboats surrounded the Virginia, The commandant of the port then wout on board one of these boats, when all of them anchored and brocght their sudj to bear on the Virginia, Don Louis Gomez, eommandor of the Mexican Liberal fleet, then went on board the Virginia, end demanded the surrender of Senor Santa Anna, which the captain of the Virginia again refused. Don Ooniei then left the Virginia. Boon after this, a boat with twelve armed soldiers, commanded by Manuel Romero, boarded the Virginia, three soldiers coaling on board with that offloer, when Senor Santa Anna, with tenor Vldal y itlvas and Mr. Van Nostilr., Sot into the boat and were taken on shore. That Senor anta Anna and lienor Vidal y bivaa were conveyed way as prisoners, and the other persons were released and sent back to tbe steamer Virginia, whioh after wards proceeeded to New York. Mr. Naphegyl appeals to this government for Its in terposition, among other reasons upon the distinct round that creditors of fenor Santa Anna in the Uni ted S tates have large pecuniary interest in tbe safety of that person. . a , . The Msxican government has presented to this gov ernment no complaint In relation to these transactions, either on behalf of Senor Santa Anna, his creditors, or otherwise. It would not be unreasonable to delay an examination of the proceedings until some com plaint shall be presented by the Mexican government, or by Senor Santa Anna personally, or by his creditors, or by some person shown to be specially authorized and empowered by biin or them to Institute a com plaint. This objection, however, will not be Insisted neon, because, iirt, it (a represented that Senor B.nta Anna has been put nnder duress through improper srooeediugs of the United States consul and naval oonmiender; and because, secoudly. it is Quite well known in this conutry that Mr. Naphegyl has been what be represents himself to be, an intimate and con fidential friend or associate of Senor Santa Anna. In order to a proper understanding of the case.it Is well to remanilier that Mexioo has been for several veers, and at the time of thee transactions still re mained , a theatre of intestine civil war, aggravated by tbe most intolerable of all political evils, foreign armed intervention. That Senor Santa Anna came voluntarily to the United States, and took up bis resi dence here some time in the year W.69. That on mare than one ocoaslon during that residence be made ap plication to the President of the U oltod States for con fidence, aanction. material aid and assistance to enable bin) to carry on belligerent operations of some sort In Mexioo. That during the civil war two parties have claimed sovereign power iu Mexioo; the first, the Be xubllosn government, of which Don Benito Juares is President; the second, that of tbe lata Prinoe Maxi milian, wbo proclaimed and sustained himself, by armed loroe and foieiKn Intervention, as Kmperor of Mexioo: that the United Slates have constantly disal lowed tia pretended Imperial government of Maximi lian and constantly adtioired to the Republican gov ,r atexlco. even to the aitnt nt Inalutinir naon the discontinuance of the military intervention l,v the uiperor of the French. That when Senor L.ntm Anna applied lo this government for protection, Sid or favor, inquiries were made by the Uulted States ililch resulted In declarations by the Republican go vernment of Meiioothat Beuor Bauta Anus was an DT be SovornmSnl of the United States, therefore, .-t.mtently relused to bold any eoireepoutUnoa or Jninniouloation, po. - -".-., who tn A nna or bis agents, end bas constantly enjoined noon its civil and military agents vigilant and euer- .nmnnloatlon, personal or otnerwise, witn fcenor nrooeeOluge to P,"" V.

Although the Virginia la a registared merchant ves sel of the Uoiud States, end al ih nb shs m ty obtain snails at the post-i.ffioe like other Vessels, shs is In no proper or just sense employed in the ssrvioe of the navy or the post-t (Dee, or tbe treasury, or any other executive department. She Is entitled t tlieproiej tionof the United Slates Dig only when she Is law fully engsged In trade, and not when she beoomni a belligerent against nations with whom ths United States are at peace, lbs com mn ideation of Mr. Hephegri gives no evidence that tbe Virginia was em ployed in the regular course of trade or ntasige as a merchant vessel Int on tbe contrary fully Implies hat distinctly appea's from other sources, that the vessel was employed exclusively by Senor Santa Anna, and was under bis absolute control. In a military, or t least political expedition of his own, in violation of tbe laws of the United States. It is not pre'ended that 'he had commercial ventnres either at Vera Vrus or at Meal, or elsewhere. Ths papers wbloh were submitted in behalf of Senor Bauta Anna further represent that Senor Santa Anna was visited by the captain of the port, the mayor of ths cliy of Vera Cms, and another gentleman whose name is not given, all of whom belonged to the Maximilian or so-called imperial party, which was then In posses sion of the castle of Ban J nan and of the city of Vera Urns. Later shs was visited by the commissary of. Prinoe Maximilian, Don Domingo Borean, anil by Gen. Taboada, the commanding general of Prinoe Maximilian's foroes at Vera Oruz, and also the captain of the port, each with a military staff, who thereupon congratulated fce .or Santa Anna npon bis arrival anil invited him to go to ths city to take command of the so me. Boon afferwards, General Peres Gomex, ommander of tbe castle of San J nan d'Ulloa, went on board the Virginia and inv. ted Senor r-anta Anna to accompany him to that castle, and remain with him nntll proper arrangemen s conld be made in the city for a grant re ception. Senor Santa Anna accepted this invltttion and repaired to the castle, whore a military band played a march of welcome, and the whole garrison shouted: "Viva el Ueneral Stnta Annul" imposing popular demonstrations followed. It is inrtuer stated that Senor Santa Anna remained in tbe castle a day and a half, during which time the city authorities were invited by the commtndlng gene ral of Maximilian to vloit the castle and dine with Se nor Santa A nua. During the sains time a meeting was convened by the so-oalied imperial commissioner, In tbe palace of Vera Crnz, to consider the manner of the reception of Benor Santa Anna, whlob meeting Unaliy came to tle conclusion to proolaim Menor Bauta Anna to be commander of the garrison of Vera Cruz. It was tben arranged that Senor Santa Anna should be esoorted to tbe city of Vera Crux on the Ita of June. One hundted and one guns were to be fired from ths castle, and workmen had already begnn to build arches and dtcorate the city. In conformity with these ar rangements, Penor Santa Anna issued and published a maniiesto to the citizens of Vers Cruz, which in eireot was an open deliance of the Bepubllcan government of Mexico. These dispositions thus made by the so-called Im perialist insurgents in the city of Vera Cruz, in com bination with tbe Senor Santa Anna, are understood to be what is meant by Mr. Maphegyi "as the ex pressed wishes of tenor Santa Anna's follow-oitizens with regard to tbe political affairs of their common country." The United Btates consul at Vers Orus gives bis own account of the proceedings which took place at that port. In a dispatch of the 8th of June, be reports that Benor r-anta Anna came to Vera Cruz on the 3d of June, with his staff, on ths Virginia, as passengers: that the staff consisted of bis father-in-law. Colonel Vldal y lilvas, two Prussian olllcers, and an American .interpreter: that fenor Santa Anns passed from tha f ihlp to the castle of San juau d'Ulloa, tben In posses sion of tbe Imperialists, and remained there until the next aay; mat on tne morning or the etn Benor rants Anns was taken irom tbe cattle of Ban Juan d'Ulloa and placed sgain on board the Virginia, after the force thit was in the castle had been changed; that on the 7th of Jnne tbe com manders of the British frigate Jason and the United Btates steamer Tacony went alongside snd on board tbe Virginia, snd took Senor Santa Anna from the Virginia and placed Mm on board, the Ta cony, then off BaorlUclos, with orders that tbe captain of tbe Virginia should pass that island and reoeive Benor Banta Anns again on board the Virginia st that flaoe; that the object of this proceeding on the part of be commander was to avoid a conflict among the armed foroes in tbe oity it being nnderstood that it was the Intention of a part of the garrison to make an attempt to have tanta Anna landed there that night. On the 12th of June Mr. Saulnier reported that the history of Santa Anna's reception was as follows: That he arrived on the Sd, on the steamship Virginia, from tie w York; that be landed the same day in the csstle of Ban J nun d'fjlloa, snd remained there throughout the next day; that on the sth. In the morn ing, he was sent baok on board the Virginia. On tbe 6th the Consul received an invitation from Santa Anna to visit him on board the Virginia, which invitation was accepted; that be entertained the Consnl for one hour, representing to him that at the solicitation of tbe President of the United States and the cecretary of Btate be had come there with an agreement that he would be supported in men snd money, and recognized in preference to President Juarez. The Consul re ported this interview to Commander Koe, of the United States ship Tacony. Ths Consul adds that It was made known to him on the 7th ot June, through a reliable source, that a ser ous effort would be made to have Santa Anna landed that night; that it was re solved by Commander Koe that Senor Santa Anna should be forthwith Invited to pass the night on board tbe United States ship Taoony, which resolution was immediately acted upon. The Consul further reports that on the 8th of J one the Virginia left the barbor, pissed by SaoriBoios re ceived Benor Santa Anns on board that ship, snd pro ceeded Immediately to tea. The Consnl at ths sime time transmitted to this de partment an aocount of the proceedings of a council of war of the Imperial Insurgent military officers, which was held npon the proposals of Benor Santa Anna at Ve rs Cruz on tbe Sd of June, which report of proceedings Is certified by those ollioers themselves. In that meeting the so-called Imperial commissary said that the ides r ut forth by General nanta Anna was to set npa repau loin plaoeof the empire. A republic diatlnot from and in opposition to the organized republio was implied. General Taboada, who oommanded the forces of Maxi milian at Vera Cms, said that tbe arrival or Benor Banta Anna in that harbor, bringing with him the necessary mean, foreign soldiers, and coming under American protection, as he (Senor Bauta Annihilates, had aggravated the situation. The question to be propounded was. whether ths gar rison wonld adhere to General Santa Anna's pr .oo sals. Lieutenant Colonel Edwardo Boudriez Slid tba as soon as Senor Banta Anna should land at tbe h-ad of American soldiers, bis command would be at an end, Don Jorge Muroia. lieutenant colonel, could not agree to Senor Santa Anna's bringing Amerlctn sol diers there. Don Kdward Figararo, oolonel of oivalry, atated that be highly esteemed General Santa Anna, but rejected the idea that he should fix lit against the Kmplre with soldiers brought from the United States Don Santisgo Ctiivaa said that Benor Santa Anna should not be allowed to enter tbe place, since be was backed by American soldiers and sustained by the American government; that Mexioo had already felt one foreign intervention, and It should be spired any more. Ueneral Marin, who commanded the naval di vision, was totally disgusted with Senor Bauta Anna, but he would rather tail Into his hands than into those of demagogues, although he distrusted bis good faith, on account of the protection given him by tue Ameri can government. Tbe consul states the conversation whioh he held with Benor Santa Anna, as follows: That Beuor Santa Anna entertained him with a long dlsooorse as to bis Jlans, snd said that after interviews with President ohnson and Secretary Seward, at their solicitation be had come to Vera rnz; that tbey had offered him men and money to sustain him; that Maximilian had offered to deliver tbe situation of the oountry to him (Santa Anna), Ac. Ac The consul further stated that be had bad an inter view with the so called Imperial commissary. He had declared that Senor Banta Anus should not land at Vera Oruz. Commander Boe gives this aooount of the t-aniao-tion: "On the 2"tb of May the United Btates and Eng lish Consuls cams to SacrlUcios. and reported to the Knglieh captain and myself that the Imperial Commis sary at Vera Cruz had submitted certain terms for the surrender of that place to General Benavldes, com manding the Liberal forces, snd that he I tha Commis sary) bad riiuesied tbe two Consuls to prooeed to tbe Liberal camp to proposv thorn. Be moreover re quested that the British captain and myself should ao compauy them. On that day we accordingly visited General Benavldes st bis headquarters, and ths propo sitions of ths Imperial Coiumissary were in substance accepted. This was after the reception of the news of tbe fall of Queretaro and theoaptureof Maximilian. A truce of some three days was agreed upon and hostilities suspended. At the end of this period, however, the (so-called) Imperial commissary failed to meet General Benavldes. and hostilities were onoe more resumed. Affairs remained then in this position until the first of June, when, after repeated solicitations on the part of tbe Maximilian commis sary to tbe United Btates snd British consuls, those that gentlemen again visited blm. This time he declared ha would accept tbe propositions of General Iteiiavldes which ths consuls bad brought baok from him in writ ing. Tbey were requested to visit General Beuevldes to notify him of tha acceptance of bis proffered terms, and of the desire of tbelmperlalists to surrender Vera Cruz, its castle snd fortifications. The conauls left the English ship-of-war Jason on the morning of the 2d of June, with full instructions to arrange for surreuder." Well grounded fears were then enter tained of a general insurrection in the city, and of scenes of horror to follow it. The consols returned from General Benavldes st two o'clock lu the after noon of tbe second of June, with a complete ratifica tion ol the original terms proposed by ths Imperialist commissary. The two cousuls prooeedei at onoe to -v..-. l!r there to report their success to ths com- misaary and await developments. General Benavldes suspended tiring from his batteries. lbs so-called Imperial Commissary acceded at once to those terms, salug that he wou.d require a Utile time to win over bis ollioers to his wishes. It was at this juncture that the steamship Virginia arrived, bringing Senor Banta Anna, lbs Imperial soinmis sary informed tbe consuls that Santa Anna declared 7r... i h ixtlxra from President Johnson and tha Uulted btates government, authorising him to as inm. the charge of sff.lrsin Mexioo; that ha also stated that a squadron of ships was red to sastain t-i i . . u.UP &Iaa an the way to vera Crui&. A letter was received by Commander Boe from the shore. ..i-t. ih.i rnviJniiouarr conrtiot was ou tha vsof breaking out ia lavor ol and agalust Senor Santa V. . . v... i-i himself as au emissary of ths United States goverueaent. and appointed to aaperteda Jn.ru and all tbora, and take charge U chief ia ; I " betialf of the United Btates. . It wa under heas elroumsienoes n vy in iuva Uoationol tha Uutied Slates consul that Commander required Vtsuox hauto Auna, wi.u uis luwrp rw and body servant, to go on board Ihe Tacony for ths Blghl, and be was ths next day pat on board the Virgi nia, and so rrqulred o leave VeraOruc. Mr. Wasbesil denies that fenor Santa Anna pre tended to have had the specific authority of th presi dent of a United States tor bis proceedings at Vera I rnz Commander Boe in his report Btates that Benor Santa Anna when on board the Taoony, denied tbat be bad publicly declared that he came In the name of President Johnson and the United Mates This denial of course cannot be executed to outweigh thedlstinct statements of the United Hates oonu),the eip sta tion of the policy of Benor Santa, given in the impe rial! t council of war at Vers Crnz, snd other corrob orating evidence. Among certain papers which were fennd la the pos sesli n of Beaor Santa Anna and h'S secretary. Is the report of s conversation which ocourred betweea that fersonsnd Commander Boe on board of the Virginia, n this report, made by Senor Santa Anna's Inter preter nnder bis own direction, It appears that bis de nial was in these words: "It Is not true that I said I was s nt, for the government st Washington could not tmploy me, nor wonld I ot ey the commands of a gov ernment not my own. I heard that the American on sul prevsrloa'ed tor ths purpose of preventing me from landing, and 1 thonsh proper to satisfy blm, and dis pose hi in lo a neutrallt be ought to have observed. or that porpose 1 said to him, substantially, that my mission was one of entire peace, an 1 that his Presi dent was not Ignorant of my journey or of my In tentions." In theoplnion of ths President. Commander Roe has trnly stated the character of the transaction which ocenrred In Vera Cms in these words: "The atltnde, then, of Santa Anns was th's: Be was on board of an American ship, nnder the flag of the United Btates, in a oily besieged by the govern ment ot Mexico, declaring and fomenting tbe olvtl war gainst that government, with whicb the United States are In friendly relations, under an assumed authority tr m the United States, and while he claimed to be nnder the protection and shield of their flag, he pre vented tbe act of Ihe surrender of Vera Cruz, after the terms of that surrender bad been agreed to and ac cepted by both parties, and this nnder tbe declarati on that be was acting nnder ths authority of the United States ' In this view of the subject this Department not on'y does not dlf allow nor censure, but it approves ths pro ceeding of .ho United Blutea Consul and Commander Boe at VeraCruz. I proceed to consider the transactions which oc curred at Mial. While Mr. Nnphegyi givos no reason why the Virginia stopped at Sisal, he leaves ns to loler that she was In fact returning directly to New York. The suggestion that ths United States should Institute proceedings against Mexioo to procure the restitution of tenor t-auta Anna to bis liberty within the jurisdic tion ol the United rtates is based upon the following assumptions, namely: that Commander Boe bad, in behalf of the government of the United B'ats. cap tured Senor Santa Anna, at Vera Cruz, and placed him on board the Virginia and be d him there In custody as s prisoner of war. o at least nnder duress as an unwil ling passenger; that the Virgiula was thui construc tively put into commission as a public vessel of the United States navy, and remained so while on ber voy age to snd after her arrival at the pirt ot Sisal, in Mexioo: and that the vessel was violently boarded eff tbe port of Sisal, when st a distance of more than one mai lne league from the coast of Mexioo, that is to say , npon the high seas, snd that her deten tion snd the arrest of Senor Santa Anna were there fore acts ot piracy It Is contended by Mr. Naphegyl that, at least, the Virginia was s merchant vessel, law fully Baliiug and remaining si or near Sisil, under the flag of tbe United States; that Benor Santa Anns, being a passenger, was forcibly and violently taken from tbe Virginia, snd conveyed sway by sgents of the Mexican government. There Is not tbe least gronnd for the pretence tbat the Virginia was In naval commissioner that Heuor Banta Anna was a prlsouer of war to tbe United States at Sisal. The nt w allegation, that the Virginia lay outbids of Mexican jurisdiction wblle at Sisal, will be made a subject of careful inquiry, Beservlng tbat question for the present, I proceed to slate tbe transaction at Sisal, as it appears from ex planatory documents. As soon as tbe Virginia was left f i ee from tbe convoy of the Tacony, by Senor Canta Anna's choice, and under bis own direction, she made her way, not to New York, but to ths port of Hlsal. Arriving there and coming to anchor an the 11th of June, Senor Santa Anns dispatched from the steamer Virginia to Geueral Martin Persza. Governor of Yuca tan st Meridia.tbe capital of that State, a letter by ihe bands of a Mexloau oolonel, Illlario Mendez,in which letter Sener Santa Anna deoiared that Colonel Mendez knew what had happened to blm In front of Vers Crnz, and would tell the Governor all sbout it. Together with tbe same letter he transmitted written reports cf those proceedings, containing an indignant complaint against Commander Poe. Senor r'anta Anna proceeded to say In tbe same letter: "If I do not get back to Vera Crnz soon in a war steamer or merchant vessel, I shall remain some time in Havana: snd whether I sm in that city or Vers Cruz I shall be at jonr service." With this letter i,enor Banta Anna also transmitted a copy of a revolutionary address to the peop e of tha Btate of Yucatan, which, on his way to Vera Crnz, he had sent on shore to be circulated there, and he now invited tbe Governor to give publicity to tbat paper. Obis proclamation, like the one Issued at Vera Oruz, was hostile to and snbvetslve of the Bepnblican gov- rnnient of Mexioo. On the 11th of Juue, Senor Vldal, the Secretary of Benor Banta Anna, wrote on board of the Virginia, "in front or risal," a letter to General Taboada, before named, of tbe Maximilian or so-called Imperial army, at Vera Cruz. lu this letter Senor Vidal said that ths passengers who embarked in that vessel (whioh passengers are supposed to be disloyal Mexicans) had expressed to Senor Santa Anna tbe general dissatisfaction of tbe inhabitants of Vera Cruz, then in tbe possession of the Maximilian party, and that he himself, on quit ting the wharf there, was grieved to see tears shed by old soldiers, assumed to be Maximilian's, soldiers, an nnvad at the ttamant ditresnect shown to Senor Banta Anna: tbat tbe garrison, as well as tbe Inhabitants of that city must be In despair, easy to understand to those who had witnessed tne spontaneous manllesta- tion of enthusiasm and sympathy. Senor Vidal prooeeded in the letter to say tbat while he reflected npon the decided intention of General '1 aboacio, and that of other friends whom Benor Santa Anna bad in Vera Cruz, and while he reflected that the affairs of Mexico could have another favorable solu tion than that which Senor Banta Anna had proposed, to give, by means or nimsoit as tneir leader, with tbe ntluence ot nis names ana uis gut oi command, ne Senor Vidal) was persuaded to write to Geueral Ta- hoHdn to aak him to tell Benor Santa Anna franklv. without ths Iosb of a moment, if the situation at Vera Crnz conld be commanded till Banta Anna's return; and if tbat could be done, whether Benor bauta Anna might expect better success in the realization of his undertaking, Senor Vidal pro ceeded to say that he thought it Indispensable o remind ueneral Taooauo ana nis party that tcey ought not to permtw the Maximilian military oroes to De aenvereci up to ineir enemies, meaning the Benublican beaiegios army), beariug In luted that those enemies do net kn w bow to pardon nor to keep then proni'ees; and thai the besieged foroes would sun ly be eacrifled as soon as they should be dis armed. Tbat tbe safest way In fact the only way- was tbat wmcn naa Deen pointea out toueneraiTa bcada by Benor Banta Anna. Tbat It was Senor Santa Anna's intention to return to Vera Cruz, without de lay. In a war steamer or a merchant steamer, lie ad vised General Taboada to let this notice serve as a euide to him In tbe management of affairs. Senor Vidal proceeded further to ask why Senor Santa Anna vas not assisted by General Taboada on the night ot the 8tb and ih, as be expected to have been. rcnor Vidai wrote, on tbe same 11th of June, on board the Virginia, at Sisal, a letter which was ad dressed to Charles Bayman, Spanish consnl in Vera Cruz, but which by its tenor stems to be Intended fr General Taboada. In this letter Benor Vldal stated that it was tbe intention of Senor Banta Anna t pro ceed from Sisal to Havana, to see wbat kind of aid, di rect or moral, the uaptam-uenerai of cuds would furnish him. With this letter Benor Vldal transmitted a card, to be delivered toGeneral Manzano, tbe Captain-General at Havana. Senor Vldal proceeded to say that the chief objeot ol bis present writing was to ask the Spanish coi sul to deliver an enclosed card to Manzano.and rtquest blm to ascertain tbedisposltions Of those who were capable of aiding him. It they were reyuy ana com a ao any good, men Benor Bauta Anna wouid soon return to the front of Vera Cms. Senrr Vidal weut on to say that all must have known tbat Benor Santa Anua's arrival at Vers Cruz was not only opportune and elllcaclous, bat neorssary, snd was lnaispeusauie. a prooeeuea to say: "i may ob tain permission for Senor Santa Anna to remain in Cuba for s month," If not, be wonld be obliged to go back to St. I nomas. At all events, tbe 8p nlh consul was to understand, there, that Senor Sauta Anna wis ready to sate Vera Oruz, and raise the siege by giin lug Benavldes over to bis party, "and thus prevent niucb bloodshed in tbe city, and tben go to the aid of he brave men (meaning the Maximilian army) who were struggling fur their lives In tbe capital of Mexico. Alas tor Veracruz, woe to Mexioo, if unfor tunately Benor Bants Anus should not txi iu.,lr. stood." Beuor Vidal went en to say: "Our present fears are that tbe vessel ws are expiating from the United Mates to Vera Crnz. not Boding Seuor Santa Anna's party there, might fall into ths hand, of some -United States agents, auu auner an m iuu guinea wmcn mat nation, lbs United States, is heaping npon Benor Santa Anua and bis party. " That that party were taking ail pre cautious at Sisal and were cruiaiug about; but as there bad been two stormy nignis, cus vessels might have passed esch other without disc very. That in siioh an event, if Ihe expectud vessel should have arrived, and tbe troops on board of it shau d wish to land, tben t Spanish consul would put lbs Irish battalion in the castls of Ban J can, and ths riffemeu in ths city, till tue return of Senor Santa Anna, wh-u be could march them into the country to shun toe maladies peculiar to tbe Mexican coast. Seuor Vidal went On to sav tbat in ths failure of that expedition tbey would aot only lose the cost of the expect d vessel, which was over t;M),0OU, but ths op portunity of aid. without reckoning tbe dillicultles that tbey bad alieady bad to overcome in org.uia ng that expedition. Senor Vidal went on to say that oa the nights of ths 8th and ib ths Virgi nia was for m re than two hours behiud ths oas.la of San Juan, from midulght till after two o'clock, with tbe lights and sig nals which bad been agreed upon ths lallegollla shoals. Tbat the solas made by b owing off steam an I other movement auust have been heard at ths cutis; tbat ths sea was calm and lbs weathor olouly. "Why, then." be asked, "did yos not come to tha plaoe agieed our We did everything we coulj. Alter twaa'ulock we put to sea. " He closed with saying that it (the letter) was not to be suffered to go out of the correspondent's put sens ou, though bis asms was not put upon it for (sar of risk ing the loss of bis situation. On ths mh of J use, being the same -day on whioh it is slieged by Mr. Naphegyl ihat tha Virginia was boarded and Senor Bauta Anns turclhli removed from that vessel at Sisal, Senor Santa Avna wrote a letter on board of the irgiuia, which be, addressed to Gen. Mathias Persia, Governor of tbe Mate of Vuoatao.at Merida. In tbia second letter to Ijeuural Peraaa, Seuor Sauta Anna referred to bis Br n Utter forwarded by , Colonel Meudes, and presume-', that It was then in the baiiusef bis oorrespoudeut, 'General Peraaa, together With tbe documents It cvutaiuad. Beuor Bauta Anua tben proceeded to say: "1 was awettug your a nswer wbsn Colonel Medina, t)b BUlUarV oomuieuuer. at tilt soil, pieeouted. h,luv elf to me on board, and Informed me that yon Invited me to land. I immediately began to get ready to so cept your invitation, snd commenced ly shaving my self. Thecaplain of tbe ves.el(Cap:ain Ueaken) in formed me that I con d not land, as his orders from the c mmender of the American war steamer (Commander Koe (were tbat I might land on neutral gronnd, bnt conld have no pretext to set foot on Mexican territory. This cansed an altercation between Colonel Medina snd the captain of the Virginia. Jlna ly the captain yielded, and I was allowed to disembark, not, however, without protest" J by Captain Deaken). br) Senor Banta Anna proceeds, In his letter to General Ptrar.a: ' Now lam st yonr disposal, and I hope I shall soon see yon, as this commander (meaning Me dins) has ptomieedmel conld. 1 winh my good In tentions may give a happy result, and I do not think Mr Balazar Illareqni will be so timid as to reject my generous mediation for theoomplete establishment of peace In this Btate of Yncatan. But if he persists lo an obstinate resistance, an old veteran plaoes himself nnder yonr orders, to be sent wherever you think he can be of Ihe greatest service to ths nation," There seems no reas n to qnejtloa the snth nllolty of these letters. If authentic, tbey prove that, at the port of Sisal, whether exartly within the Mexican jurisdiction or just beyond it. General Santa Anna was In command of the sams military anted expediti m against the Hepnbllo wblcb be bad nrepared within and oondrcted from Ihe shores of the United Mates to Vera Cruz, In violation of their neutrality laws ant in derogation of ths relations of amity and friendship, and alao.BO tar as the sphere of moral Influences Is concerned, within ths relations of'allles. They prove, also, that although Captain Deaken, perhaps in the Interest of New York creditors, protested, Senrr Banta Anna voluntarily disembarked at Sisal, and went into tbe camp of tbe defenders of ths Ba public ol Mexico During a const lerable part of the period in which Mexioo has been tbs theatre of civil war, armed m'lltary and naval fores bas been main tained by the United States oo ths Klo Grande and in tbe waters aronnd tbe ports of Mexioo, among other purposes, to prevent and defeat Invasions of that Be public by any military and naval expeditions which might he set on foot lu the United btates. We are tflicially Informed that Senor fanta Anna, after having (tnded at elsal in conformity with his engage ments was Bent forwaru by the military commandant at Sisal in conformity with his engagements, to tne care of General t'eraza, the Governor of Yucatan, and la detained In custody, with a view to the safety ot ths ltet nbli ' of Mexico. Upon this review of the facts it seems proper tbat the rovernment should wait tor further end more definite nformation before entering npon communications in relation to the complaint of Mr Naphegyl with the ?:overument of Mexico. Tbat nation seems at last to lave triumphed over all its lute-nal and forelgu ene mies, and to have reached a crisis when, If left atone, it may be expected to rtstore tranquillity, end to reor- fanie itself npon permanent foundations of union, reeciom and republican government. Only some great national injnry. wrong or offence wonld justify thll go ernmnt in suddenly aasnmlng a hostile or even an unfriendly attitude toward the n pnbllo of Mexioo, ' William U. Skyvard.
