MEXICO. Important Diplomatic Correspondence— General Ortega's Assassination—Butch ery of Mexican Prisoners by the French —General Weltzel's Protest, itc. WASHINGTON, May 13.—The last install ment of documents relative to Mexico makes nearly six hundred pages. It appears from the mass of correspond ence that, on the sthoof January, M. Romero sent documents to Mr. Seward, showing, in the first place, that the assassination of General Ortega was an accomplished fact, notwithstanding the endeavors of the French to conceal it; and, moreover, that it was premeditated and executed by orders from Mexico, or by command of the French Gen eral-in-Chief of the invading Army, or by, the French agent in that city, on whom they try to lay the responsibility of their con • duct. Re adds that "the assassins have not had the manliness to assume the responsi bility of their crime, but have tried to con ceal it, or impose the guilt of it upon an un happy traitor officer, who has joined the conquerors of his country. In a subsequent communication, dated February 20th, he transmitted to Mr. Seward additional documents in order to keep the United States Government in formed of the conduct of the invaders of Mexico. _ .He says—"l now call your attention to the inconsistency -of treating Mexicans as belligerents after once having denied them that right. The. French agent of Maximil ian, after having denied all the rights of belligerents to the soldiers of the republic, - whom he proclaims as bandits in his decree of the 3d of October last; and shoots, with out trial, in conformity to his decree, even though they belong to regular organized forces, now, the commander-in-chief of the invaders negotiates a formal exchange of prisoners with Gen. Riva Palacio, whom he styles "General," and flatters with courte ous language for his humanity to French prisoners. To say the least, this signifies an acknow ledgment of the rights of belligerents to the forces of the Republican army. The evident object of this inconsistency is to gain the re -lease of the French prisoners; and it is an open confession forced from the invaders of the Mexican soil that those forces defending the independence of their country, are not disorganized bands of highway robbers, as they assert; and it is unjust and absurd to deny them the consideration usually ex tended to all belligerents throughout the civilized world. On the 10th of March M. Romero ad dressed Mr. Seward as follows: "Mr. Secre tary, as a specimen of the manner in which the so-called decree of the usurper Maxi milian, issued on the 3d of October last, or dering the execution of all Mexicans who defended the independence of their country, is carried out, 1 have the honor to inclose to you with this note, the death sentence pro nounced against Colonel Carlos Garcia Ca -MO, and the mode of its execntion,contained in an extract from Los Ornbra, a paper pub lished in the city of Mexico." The Colonel was a young man of twenty five, who had once served in the ranks of the Interventionists, but afterwards , reflect ing on his duty i as a Mexican, joined the de fenders of her independence. He was sub sequently taken prisoner, condemned, and executed in the irregular manner shown by the annexed document. I refrain from commenting on what Is here improperly called a trial, and which is nothing but real assassination, as it was done in accordance with the so - c alled decree, which is already known to the Government of the United States. The following is Mr. Seward's reply— DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON, March 14, 1866.-Btir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communi cations of January bth and 22d, February 20th and March 10th, 1866, with theii inclo sures, which relate to the decrbe hoped on the 3d of October, 1865, by the so-called Emperor of Mexico, and in which the penalty of death is declared against all Mexicans found in arms and defending the integrity and independence of their country against the forcible intervention of France In that republic. You farther inform me that this penalty has actually been visited - upon Major Gene xal Jose Maria Ortega, and seyeral of his companions in arms, recently made prison ers by the French. In reply, it is scarcely necessary for me to assure yon that the Government of the - United States deeply regrets the untimely fate which has overtaken these brave cham pions of the cause of liberty and republican institutions in Mexico, and fully deprecates the practice of a system of warfare so little in consonance with the usages of en lightened States. I beg, in answer, to state that the subject will receive the attention to which it is so justly entitled from the Government, and meanwhile have the honor to renew to yon, sir, the assurances of my highest consideration. [Signed] WM. H. SEWARD. Senor Matins Romero, Washington, D. C. The following correspondence took place between Generals Weitzel and Mejia 31EADQUA_RTERS DISTRICT OF THE Rio GRANDE, BROWNbVILLE, TEXAS, Jan. 2d, 1866.—General: I understand that you have taken seventeen persons from the Liberal forces and that you intend to execute them. In the name of the entire civilized world, I protest against such a horrible act of bar barity. I believe it will stamp the power which you represent with infamy forever. To execute Mexicans fighting in their own country and for the freedom of their coun try against foreign power, is an act which, at this age,will meet with universal execration. I cannot permit this to be done under the eye of my government without, on its be half, entering this solemn protest. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant, G. WEITZEL, Major-General Commanding. To Major-General Tomas Mejia, com manding the line of the Rio Grande. IMPERIAL ARMY OF MEXICO, DIVISION OF MEJIA, READ-QUARTERS MALTAMORAB, Jan. 2, 1866. Gen era I: I acknowledge the receipt of your communication, dated this day. I find myself tinder the necessity of replying energetically to the participation which you pretend to take ini the internal concerns of this country. The business to which the prqtest in your note refers has now been brought before competent tribu nals, and no one has a right to suspend the proceedings. For your individual cogni tion I will add that the prisoners in ques tion are accused of having taken,. by force of arms, thirteen wagons, twenty-six mules and horses, and robbed thirteen persons. It would be very, strange, General, if, in the middle of this nineteenth century, the ban dits and fighting robbers were to receive help and protection from the civilized world. By the same occasion I see myself obli gated to remind you of the contents of the letters I had the honor to address you on the 21st of last December. Isbell return, without answer, all communications of the character and couched in the language of the one now before me. Accept, General, my esteem and conside ration. TOMAS Munk, Gen. Com'g the Division of the Rio Grande. 'lib Major-General Weitzel, commanding the Western District of Texas, Browns ville. SUICIDE IN A NASHVILLE THEATRE.-A tragedy took place in the Broadway Varie ties, in Nashville, a few nights since. Da ring the performance, at the close of some feats by a female tight-rope dancer, one of the audience, named Woods, drew a small _tour barreled pistol from his pocket, and shot himself 'through the head, inflicting a mortal wound. •. The Failure of the Merchants' National Hank of Washington—Examination. by the Government. WASHINGTON, May 12.—John Ball, Bank Examiner, has made a report to Hon. Free-° man Clark, Comptroller of the Currency, in which be says— On the 30th day of April, ultimo, 'I in formed you that the examination of the National Bank of Baltimore City, Mary land, then being made, indicated that the Merchants' National Bank of Washington, D. C., had been, or was likely to be, a loser by the house of Bayne do Co., of Baltimore, to an extent which would make an early examination into the condition of that bank desirable, whereupon I had the honor to receive your instructions to proceed with an examination of said bank at the earliest practicable moment after completing the examination in Baltimore. The remaining investigations in that city throw much light upon the affairs of the Merchants' Bank. Among other things certified checks of the Merchants' Bank to the amount of $125,000 were pledged as a collateral, of which no record is found here. In compliance with such instructions, an examination of the said bank was corn -menced on Monday, the 7th day of May instant, and is still progressing. The first step taken in the examination was to cause a statement to be . prepared from the books of the bank, showing the amount of liabilities and resources. A condensed copy of such statement is herewith inclosed (marked appendix A). Simultaneously with the preparation of such statement, an examina tion of the assets found in the bank was made, and a careful scrutiny of the accounts of other banks and individuals commenced with a view to a verification or otherwise of such statement. Already it is made manifest that large discrepancies exist in the accounts of some of the creditors as well as debtors to the bank, as shown by the books on one side, and the statement of accounts received from the said creditors and debtors within the last three days on the other. As examples of these discrepancies, it may be stated that they is a difference of about $200,000 in the indebtedness of Bayne it Co., as shown by their statement of account received on the 10th inst., and a difference of about $29,000 on the credit of the Union Bank of Maryland. as stated by the respective banks. It becomes plain, therefore, that an adjustment of these descrepancies must be made before a certain knowledge of the amount of liabilities and resources can be made. There are, however, several of the most important liabilities which are fixed and defined. Upon these I shall proceed to make a detailed report. The first liability for the bank is for its circulating notes out standing. This is as follows, viz: Amount of circulating notes received from the Comptroller of the Cur rency,. . . . $l3O, 000 . . Less mutilated notes found in bank, 190 Amount of circulating notes out- standing, . . . . . 179,810 There are in the hands of the Treasurer of the United States, especially to meet this liability, the following bonds to wit: Five-twenty bonds, . . . $200,000 On these bonds there is due accrued . interest in gold for six months, ending on the Ist of May, inst., . 6,000 This, counting the bonds and interest at their par and not their market value, gives 206,000 with which to redeem the outstand ing circulation. Without making any allowance for notes likely to be destroyed, this sum is unques tionably fully sufficient for the purpose with a surplus of V. 6,190 available to meet the liabilities of the bank. The next and most important liability of the bank is its indebtedness to the Govern ment of the United States, and to the dis bursing officers and agents of the Govern ment. The following is a statement in de tail of the said indebtedness as taken from the books of the bank, and believed to be entirely correct: To the credit of the Treasurer of the United States, - - _ - $57,03199 To the credit of the Treasurer for the Postoffiee Department, Total, $58,566 99 To the credit of disbursing officers and agents as follows: Lieutenant-Colonel. Hodge, Pay master,- - - - - $35000 00 D. N.- , Cooney, Commissioner of Indian Affairs, - - - - 29,690 32 Major Thomas H. Gardner, Pay- master, - - • - - - Thomas J.

Roches ter Paymaster, - Elijah - - Sells, Superintendent In dian Affairs, - - - - 5,063 95 Major J. S. Stewart, Paymaster, 81 Major D. Taylor, Paymaster, - 5,000 00 Winnebago Trust Land, - - 3,346 70 E. B. Olmstead, Post Office De partment, - Total, - - - - $762,312 57 There is in the hands of the Treasurer of the United States for the especial purpose of meeting the liabilities of this bank to the government $90,000 in seven-thirty notes, and $lO,OOO in ten-forty bonds, amounting to $lOO,OOO, To show to soncte extent how this large item of indebtednets to the government and disbursing officers and agents was created, I deem it my duty to report to you certain facts derived from sworn statements, as follows, viz: • On the 29th of April, ultimo, several inter views and consultations were held by or be tween interested persons and others, the object of which was to arrange for the rans fer of funds to the Merchants' National Bank, and by the bank to Bayne di Co., for the avowed purpose of saving Bayne (k, Co. from suspension, and thus saving the bank. It is said to have been fully explained and well understood by the persons present at these interviews, that unless Bayne & Co. could receive from $150,000 to $250,000 with out delay, they must fail, and that this would involiOe the failure of the bank. The, persons known to have been present at one or more of these interviews and con sultations, and cognizant of the condition of the bank, were Mr.- L. lanyck and Mr. C. A. Sherman, President and Cashier of the said bank; Mr. C. W. Botiler, Jr., and Mr. Oscar King, directors; Mr. L. P. Bayne, of Bayne & Co., Baltimore; Mr. Huntington, Cashier of the First National Bank; Mr. Frizzel, Assistant Cashier of the National Bank of the. Metropolis, and Lieutenant- Colo* E. E. Paulding, Payrriaster U.S, A. After stating these facts to show how far the true condition of the bank was known on the 20th day of April, it remains for me to give a list of the deposits of the govern ment and disbursing officers' and agents' funds from that date until the final suspen sion of the bank on the 3d of May in.st., and the amounts deposited by them respec tively : May 1. deposited by Brigadier- General Robinson, to his own credit, - - - - - May 3, deposited by Brigadier- General Robinson, to the credit of the Treasurer of the United States, the same having been drawn from the bank, - - April 20, D.

B, Olmstead, - - 5,000 00' Of the $200,000 thus transferred to the bank by Lieutenant Colonel Paulding on the 21st of April, $150,000, were transferred. to Bayne& Co.in the manner, following,viz:. $50,000 were placed to their credit with Scott, Capron & Co., in New. York, by the First National Bank; a further sum of $50,000 was placed to their credit with Hoyt, Anthony, Douglas '& Co., by the said First Nation al Bank. A check on New York drawn by the First National Bank was placed in the hands of Mr. Oscar, Bing, for Bayard ct Co., which check was duly delivered. The re maining $50,000 of the $200,000 were pain to the Merchants' National Bank in currency, $30,000 of which were used to make good certain checks given by the bank to them the day next previous ' making a total of $lBO,OOO virtually paid to that house. The balance, it is alleged by the officers of the bank, was used in paying checks in the regular course, of business. The next liability to be noticed is given in the statement as "Loans, $115,000." These loans have been made from two banks, one in New York and one in Washington. To secure their repayment, the bills receivable of the bank are said by the officers to have been used as collaterals to the amount of $119,528 48. I have been able to verify the existence of these absent bills receivable to the amount of about $lO,OOO only. If these notes are all paid or collected, it will, with out taking the interest into consideration, leave the sum of $84,528 48 available to meet other liabilities. To individual depositors there is due, ac• cording to the statement, the sum of $38,- 610 69. This amount may be somewhat varied. A careful examination of these ac counts is being made in comparison with the depositors' books, which will be re ported hereafter. Al.d, finally, the indebt edness of this 'bank to other banks and bankers constitutes a liability for which there is no special security. It is given in the statement et .$65,852 26, as before stated. This item is liable to be materially changed and can only be finally determined after au adjustment of accounts between the partie s . Any change that may be made in it will naturally increase rather than diminish it. The assets as yet found in the bank are as follows, viz: Legal tender notes, Fractional currency, - 7 3-10 Treasury notes, - Specie, - - - S. coupons, - - National currency, State currency, - - Revenue stamps, - Postage currency, - - - 4 20 Special deposits, cash, - - - 1,044 14 Special deposits, checks, - - 244 40 Bills receivable, not yet due, - 9,520 45 Bills receivable, past clue - - 11,599 21 Bills receivable , . protested,- 13,64 S 23 Furniture and xtures, carged at 5,017 20 Total amount of assets found in the Bank, - - - - $11,962 70 There is said by the officers to be absent from the bank and under hypothecation Tor loans, as before•stated bills receivable to the amount of $198,528 59 ; amount borrowed thereon $115,000; leaving nominal assets to the amount of $94,528 48. The liabilities of Bayne 4k Co. are given on the books as $714,7/0 54. The amount of this item is unsettled between the parties, and at present no estimate can be formed of its value. Bayne & Co. have failed, and made an assignment. A copy of their as signment is inclosed forthwith. (Marked appendix B.) Due from national and other banks and bankers, $500,840 69. No reason is known why this item is not perfectly good, unless there shall prove to be some difference or dispute as to the amount. The indications are that their balances will be much re duced. Several minor items mentioned in the statement are not found. They may prove to be used as collaterals for loans. They are as follows: 100 shares of National Bank of - 1,535 00 5,376 82 Staunton, Va., - - 11. S. bonds entered at, Seven-thirty notes, - Making a total of - - - $15,662 65 I subjoin a recapitulation of the assets and liabilities above enumerated, for the pur pose of more convenient reference and com parison, viz: - 24,542 36 National circulating bonds out standing, - - - - 6179,810 00 Due United States Treasurer and disbursing alders and agents, 762,312 57 Loans, - - - - - 115,000 00 Due dividend deriositors, - 38,610 89 Due to other banks and bankers, 65,872 26 2,215 77 Bonds in the hands of the United States Treasurer, with accrued interest thereon, - - - Cash assets, - - - - Bills receivable, not yet due, - Bills receivable, past due and protested, - - - Bills reeeivable,',said to be hyro thecated, - - - - - 199,528 48 Furniture and fixtures charged at, - - - - - Bayne & Co.'s indebtedness called, - - - - - - 714,710 54 Due from national and other banks and bankers, - - Minor items said to be used as coliaterals, - - - - 15,662 65 Secretary of the Treasury, - 2,276 00 It may be seen that the capital stock is not ,:ntered above as a liability. In an in solvent bank it may cease to be a liability and become a resource under the stock holders' liability clause of the National Currency act. Appended to the report is the affidavit of Leonard Huyck, the President of the Mer chants'• National Bank, detailing the cir cumstances which led to the transfer by Paymaster Paulding of funds from other National Banks to the Merchants' Bank.
