that your personal relations are such as

lopctccive lhal the conduct 0! Mr. T.. on
Ihc olhcr hand, has not been free from er:
ror.
No two agents of the government could
have been charged with duties more diu
tinct and non-conflicting; duties less like
ly to bring on pctsonal collision, where
any sort of communication was required.
To you was entrusted the conduct ot mil
itary operations;-to him. the business at
negotiating a peace. if a favorable oppor
tunity should occur”, Only a very limited
official intercourse between you and him
was requiied, and that was 0! such a char
a‘cter u to preclude. us it was supposed.
the possibility of any misunderstanding.
He was required. in the first ploee.‘to de

agency in regard to it was ended. - It was
ended. it was committed to you to be
forwarded; not even the President’s or

witlirlratiri it from him, rind executed the
order to forward it from this department
to the Mexican authorities. Should you

apprise Mr.'l‘rist of thrit loci. and do what
may be deemed proper to taicilitute the
conclusion ol 0 peace.
It is not expected that you still crinliun
ue under your firrit,’ strange delusion as to
Mr. Trist’s instructions to interfere in
any manner with your military operations.
My previous letters. and the extract fur
nished you from ‘tlio~c instructioririr Iliuul
have put to Ilight all your misconceptions
on that subject. The utmost extent of
the commissioner‘s authority, beariug on
this point. was to git-e you written notice
ol the happeningof a contingency on \iillCiti
a suspension of hostilities was to follow—i
.. . ,
not by Mr. Inst 9 order—not by an or
der cmnmunicatrd through him—but by
the order of the President. your superior
officer. conveyed to you directly by the
Secretary ol War. -
This auspensimi of hostilities was not,
as you saw titto assume. to be It preliniiri
my to. but to result front, negotiations
conducted to a successful issue. Your
course. on receiving the first communica
tion from Mr. Trist. shut you out, for it
time at least. from the information uhicli
would have secured you lrom the fol-e po‘
srtion in which you so precipitately placed
yourself. You would have learned from
Mr. 'l'rist. if an tntervrew “'llil him had

should be as well acquainted with what:

Trist was authorind, on arriving at your

probably. prominent among these “ cruel ‘

«That you have been disappointed in some

FIVE DESTRUC'I‘IVE FIRES IN

Prrrsauncu, April 12.
Our city this morning was vinted with
no lens than five terribly deutructive fires.
The first fire broke out in a stable near
the canal. end before the flames could be
subdued, twenty-six houses were tlett

and Carson. & McKingle. The smoke
houses were insured. .
Four houses were consumed at the sec-‘
and ltre. including Hill’s Paper Factory.
Al the third lite, (our houses were des 3
troyed. two ol them dwellings. beside! a
stable. At the lourrh. two hnuscn. At
ilhc filth, three houses and a. dwelling in
