The Free Zone OueHtlon lleforo the Mexican Uoimre.s lie vote on me nutect. Mexico. Nov. 11. On the Mh of this month the t'oiiBreKS of .Mexico passed the law not only con tinuing the "free zone" within the llniita it has al ready occupied, hut extending it to Laiupaxos and Cerraloo, two Interior towns la the State of Nuevo Leon. The fifty-third article in the new Tariff bill under discussion authorizes what is known as tho free zone by the reading public, the text of which, as it has just papscd the Congress of Mexico, by a vote 01 eigniy-nve to ininy-Beven, in as iouows: Article M. Foreign Rood, destined for consumption in the following cilieB MutHinoros, Raymma, Cain&ruo. M,a Guorrero, Monterey, Laredo, in i amaulipas. in the Ointriut of ltio (iraodo, in Onaliuila, IjiiiipazeB. and Cerraluo, in PiuevoLeon; l'renidio del Norte and Paso del Norte, in Chihuahua shall be free from all dutiea except muni cinul. The greater portion of three days was occupied by Mr. Komero, Secretary of the Treasury, in com bating tne bill and attempting to secure ltd abolish ment, but In vain. The opposition to these deputies was too strong, and a vote of eighty-five to thirty, seven was rolled up without much apparent effort. Secretary Komero, among other things, replied as follows to Mr. (iuzmaii, who favored the continu ance and extenston of the "free zone": Anct.her mistake which the orator to whom 1 refer incurred, Is the assertion that the Government of the I'nited States solicited, by the urgency of tho usurpers Miramon and Maximilian, the abolition of the free zone. Continuing his design of making Congress believe that the opinion of the Executive opposed the free zone because of his condescension to the Cabinet of Washington, he makes the con duct of those pretended governments to appear as If it were the conduct of the present ad ministration. I doubt whether this Deputy believes what be has told us, and If he should be lieve It be thus manifests with how much readiness he gives assent to the most unfounded and most improbable rumors, and witn wnat frankness ne pretends to make a communication of his mistakes to tnis congress. 'J ne liuvtrnment 01 tne united States could not solicit fsom Mlramou or Maxl- milliun either the suppression of :he free zone or anything else, for the simple reason that it never had relations with them. It is true that Mr. Forsyth, Minister of the United .States to Mexico in is.'i7. recognized Felix .uiougo as t'rest dent of the Mexican republic; but it Is also true tnatne did so without instructions iroin ms umv ernment, and that soon afterwards he had to sns rend liis relations with said administration of Mr, Felix Zuloaga before Miguel Miramon usurped the power. After that the Government of the United States recognized the constitutional l'resident of Uie republic, theu established in Vera Cruz, and maintained relations with it until the end of the war of reform. All the world knows ana it is sur prising to find that there may still be those who are ignorant that the Oovrrniiientof tbe I'nited States never recognized the intervention or the so called empire, or had relations of any kind with eue or the other. It Is not comprebendrd, then, how It may have manllested Its wishes In respect to the free zone to the reactionary party or to tne intervention. Persons who may not be acquainted with the rules which regulate the conduct of the Cabinet In Washington can say that, In one or the other cso. it manifested its wlshts by means of coutidential agents, but by this they will only show their abso lute lgLorance or tne usages established by the uoy. ernment 01 the I'nited States. Moreover, even sup posing that really tnere should have ben some indication on the part of the Cabinet of Washington to those usurpers, the existence of the Free Zone mignt ne explained by the simple reason thatta reaction did not come intopoBsession of the frontier. and it would le bad to legislate for territory which it never possessed: and. although the empire held Matamoras and sometimes all the frontier, its oc cupation 01 it was always precarious. Further more, neither one nor the other order of things had ever the necessary tranquillity to occupy ltsulf with considering and accomplishing the changes and reforms wiiicn tne public adiuiuistration reuuire nor was It probable that they should Intend to suppress the free zone, even should they not think it convenient, knowing that with the suppres sion of the free zone they might incur decided hos tility from tne towns which enjoyed that privilege. In circumstances under which they attempted to cause the wish of the whole nation to submit. Maximilian would probably have abolished the free zone a dozen times to secure Interchange the recog nition of the I'nited States, l'erjous whojmay have Known me lniere.i wuu.u no nan ni (ne recogumon will not doubt me corrccmeia or tills assertion. Mr. Guzman, In favor of the extension of the "zote," thought proper to make long speeches, from which the following is an extract: I have said the executive, because In Ms name tbe Minister of the Hacienda has addressed us; but I ir.av be permitted to take exception to this, notimr that tbe present President of tue republic remains in tower lue fame time n'" o upiiorii. me law 01 the free zone; that by establishing the constitutions! order that law baa been ratified br the Congress of 1861. without any observations on the part of the Kxfrtitive. and alter warus Air. juarez Pus been la- vented with extraordinary faculties at different pe riods of bis administration when be could have aliollshed It, and 1 have only seen decrees which regulated It.

And if my reasoning lacks force and my words facility and eloquence to demonstrate It, my pprtctatlve colleague, Mr. Velasco, will rad, be fore closing this discussion, the opinion of the com mittee of the American Senate, which commenced py recognir.u g the right which. Mexico has to make its fiscal laws aa suits its own Interests. It closes with the observation that the continuance of the free rone In onr territory Is a grave damage to iseir expectations 01 tne intiire, and savs more In favor of what the committees advise in their project than all that our weak voice could sustain. I will mention, then, that when the Government did me the honor to name me, in company with Mr. Cm- tancda, to form the project of tariff which, with lit- ne enm ne. is now oeiug discussed, snirirest ons 011 the part rd the Government of the United States were made to ns which 1 ought not to reveal. In order that we should advise the suppression of the iree zone, wnicn, as na been seen, we have denied wnn me greatest energy, it is strange to me siso, n In tht I fall lYlu BltoiitlnM nf hA IibahiKIb that from the Secretary of Hacienda there has no t been a single word ol disapprobation for the con tract of colonization of Lower Ca'lfornla, called Lnse, in wnicn is asked, for the benefit of the com. List, the Importation nud consumption of mer cliandi.se free of all duty, in which there are con ceded to the new immigrants benefits and rights more nnerai man mose conceded to our brothers on the northern frontier; and, notwithstanding his j.oriisinp does not nnu otistacies lor concediug to foreigners that which is denied to Mexicans. Is it because the former speak English and the Utter the poor spaiiisn intoinv 1 ao not Know, 1 cannot ex plain, how to-day and among ns are defended the interests or the 1 nited states in opposition to the Interests of Mexico. It should not be understood by this that I entertain III will towards that people which was our friend In the hour of misfortune. No, sir: I respect it, I admire It, and I wish it all prosperity, but never when prejudicial to our na tionality; I have not proposed anything aggressive, lint, strong in our right, we must not accept the friendly intervention after having driven out the armed intervention. I wish reciprocity of interests in onr relations, and especially on our northern frontier; and as we suffered in silence what for twelve years they sus tained In front of the Mexican bonier tho privileges of ports of deposit s they may to day endure the continuance of the free zone; aud if tho rivalry continues we also win tolerate in our turn that the? msy establish free ports. The trim sove reignty 01 tne people wonid reel oiremiei wtiett we forget our duties. The United SUtes are great aad powerrui, but they aro also just, in this solemn moment, when the fortune of onr brothers Is to be dewled, once more I ask Congress to per mit me to ppeak, ns it may be necessary to op pose in the position In which I have placed myself, and to reiterate that it m;iy not listen to suggestions which are not founded on reason. I have demonstrated before that the Treasury Is not affected by leaving the Free Zone on the frontier of Tamaullpas, and by extending itf benefits to towns which are found tu an analogous situation; the political considerations and those of national interest cannot be disregarded, because they are palpable; nd not only, If some time I shill prove that the Treasury may lose $100,000, fsoo.oot) or $300,000, 1 should say that the honor of Mexico Is worth more than that money, and that Its represen tatives will know how to defend it, by sustaining that which the committee now presents, by which It may favor It with its vote. Tims I ask aud thus I expect lb THE NLW KING OF SrAlN. -nernl Prim's Account of the Negotiations. General Frim spoke as follows on the 2d Inst., in tbe Spanish Cortes, when formally present inn; the Duke of Aosta as a candidate for the throne. Having referred to the negotiations with Prince Leopold, he euld: "We found ourselves once again without a candi date. In the early period of this sanguinary war, which even yet unfortunately continues, the Gov ernment could not and ought not to have renewed efforts with any of the Princes of Europe, for all the European nations were full of anxiety aud of natu ral preoccupation as to what might happen to each of them. Hut when this early period had passed, and we saw the struggle or arms localized, the Government, desirous, with all the Monarchi cal Deputies, to be able to present to the Cortes the day they recommenced their labors a candidate for the throne of Spatn, conse crated their energies to seek one. Days, weeks, and months passed with astonishing rapidity. The first time the Government directed themselves to tliu House of Havoy, as inn Deputies already know, they did not meet with the result to which they aspired, for the Duke of Aosta did not think it proper to accept the offer tney theu made, an offer always conditional, us the Deputies mav suppose, for tho Government had no absolute authoiity to offer the Crown, and therefore their effort have always had for base and principle the supposition that tho Con stituent Cortes would consent to nominate him. liut though the npble Duke of Aosta did not think It proper to accept the oiler made to him, bis negative was so friendly, so deli cate, and made in terms bo worthy and so honorable for Spain, and the motives ou which he founded It were of such a nature that I iiu lleved the door, on beii'g closed, admitted of our being able to return to knock at the proper season at it again. The Council of Ministers debated whether It was proper or not to direct themselves once more to the House of Sovoy, aud, after mature reflection, they believed they ought to try and open a fresh negotiation. "ly the accord or my companions I had tho honor to present this thought to the consideration of his HlghnesB the Regent. His Highness approved It, and gave me his orders. In consequence, iroin that moment, and, as I said, authorized by his Highness and the Government, 1 gave the opportune Instruc tions to the Minister of Spain in Florence. It was necessary fo the negotiations to be carried on ra pidly, for, as I have before said, the days, weeks, and months passed quickly, and the 81st of October was approaching. '1 lie negotiation was conducted, gentlemen, almost all by telegraph. From the first day aud first moment I met great benevolence In tho noble : King of Italy, Victor Emanuel, who from tbe very beginning always demonstrated him self favorable and disposed to do all that in hltn Uy for the definitive constitution of our country. Not less benevolent was our reception from the noble Duke of Aosta. liut I need not trouble you by re lating minutely, and step by step, the negotiations, for they will be found iu tho documents which to morrow 1 shall bave the honor to lay on the table. It falls to me now to manifest the satisfaction of the Government and the Hegent, who all equally desire to terminate the interreguum, which so pitifully wounds the general interests of our country, which kevps in suspense all progress, and which prevents tbe development of Industry and the transaction of business, through the anxiety and uncertainty In which everybody Uvea without knowing wnat may be the fate of to-morrow. "There bas, at last, arrived the moment of ending this Interregnum and ceasiug the clamor we have heard so loiig. 1 am the more rejoiced at this be cause It has bo often been said, perhaps without In tention, that I have been the chief obstacle to the tetmlnatiou of the interregnum. The reality has been the exact contrary. Tbe sorrows 1 have passed through I shall not enlarge upon now, nor the efforts I have made to nil the throno. When all the negotiations I have pursued are published, aud when the full details are known, I have the convic tion the Cortes and the country will do me foil justice. 1 conclude, gentlemen, for I have no necessity to add more, by making a call on the patriotism (the Hepublicau gen tlemen must not be alarmed If I only call on the patriotism of the Monarchical Deputies, for it would be useless to call on theirs) of the Monarchical ptrt of the Chamber, ttiat they may be pleased to accept, not the candidate of the Government, for the Government ought not to have any caudld.ite for the throne of Spain, but the candidate who merits the svmpatMea of the majority, a the Chamber alone tho Sovereign Anseiiibly Is that which has toeiect the Kmg. The Deputies know witn whom the Government has carried ou the negotiations. Last night, in another plae, I named him. I be lieve I have also named him just now, but I desire, and so do all my companions, to have it well under stood this Is a question purely constituent, and therefore to the Government, always re spectful to the sovereignty of the Cortes, it is not permitted to say, 'This is our candidate.' But I ask. and here again I call on the patriotism of the Monarchical Deputies, that they will keep In view that if thev divide their tuffrages it will be a bid bu glntlng for the creation of a new dyuasty.
