The Picayune gives the following 9
tho substance ol tin? correspondence :
It would appear, fiom uch of the pub
l jhetl correspondence as we hive B"en
n lite Dlurio, that on lite 81s.l ulj, Go
Vemor Shannon addressed a.lelter to tin
Mexican Govern went .protesting again.'
tho proposed invasion ofTexis by Mex
ici,'hm1 especially against '.hem inner in
which the invasion was to be, mule-. To
in i the Minister of Foreign Afliiri re
plie I (we have not seen his commit. ii
ciion' denying the right ot theUnited
Stales or any foreign governtnrnt to in
terfere in the internal atfiirs of the re
public Gov. Shannon, in answer, elm
acterizes ilt"-Secret-try's Jelfcr' no .being
grossly offensive, Inasmuch as itchar.g"-.

people, wiih falsehood, Iricksiy, in
irigtle and designs of the mot dishonoi
iible character. Gov. Shannon alleges
that-lite jjolu of the Secretary is so gm
in Its character, so offensive; that he
ican only demand that it be at once with
drawn.
The Mexican Minister replies will
the utmost warmth. , Me treats the ent
ile! pan of Mr. Shannon's correspond
dencc as being supercilious and (ill- n
ive, juHltfiss all that he his himself
written protests that the Mexican no
vernment has tlone, and isdoing.ill 'ba'
il can to pievenl a tnpiuru will) the U
S.ates.but that hAMm hive reached such
.h crieta- that it is nrcessary for his, i -vemmeiil
to speak out plainly b flute
the world-, ile therefore declines to
Withdiaw Uie noie.
iF-t-tmi ihe lone of this letter, il is evi
tlenl enough that the Mexican Miniiitei
is of ihe opinion that Mr. Shannon duett
jiot speak the sentiments of a majoitiy
-of the -people of the United Stati n jn re-'
l.iliou lo the Tex ts question. Jl -con-vidured,
too, that uur rt.cenl presidential

lion of Mr. Clay, and he speaks of thai
.gentleman, Mr. Adams, and the Untied
