 HE MEXICAN lNDEMNITY.-A letter from the Richmond Enquirer gives the following account of what has become of the missinG instalments on the indemnity stipulated to be paid to this country by Mexico:

 ''Eere are the circumstances of the case, as they were told to me to-day, by gentleman on whom can rely. The firm of Hargous & Co, in Vera Cruz and New ' ork, and Voss & Go, in Mexico, are agents of our government for receiving the money already stipulated to be paid by the United States. s.- Trigueros, Santa Annals late Secretary of the Treasury, IS principal partner of the firms. With one hand as Santa Annals fiscal agent, he paid the last instalment (S275,00O) into the other, with which he wrote the receipt as agent of the United States Government. The money found its way into his pocket, and he has absquatulated along with the rest of hls masters Ministers, whose heads are not safe on their own shoulders if caught within the Republic of Mexico. Santa Annals robberies of the Treasury of his own Government, fur nished him with an illustlious precedent for this robbery of ours. Our treasury suffers by this financial "operation;" for you will remember he was sufficiently patriotic to give his own government receipt for the money as United States agent. Thus Congress will be forced to appropriate the sum stolen, the United States being responsible for it to the claimants.
