Correspondence Of the Herald


WASHINGTON, July 3, 1886
The Merican Lndemnities again-Trosbs ahead


Isras annexation, &c.


Shannon has returned, and from conversations
he has had with several gentlemen of this city, it
learned that he states he heard anything Of
any difficulty in the United States on account Of the
non-payment of the indemnties, until his arrival in
New York. He also informed them that Mr.
Voss assured him that they had all been settled be-
lore ne arrived in Mexico, and that he had receipt
for so much money paid, and not that he had re-
ceived bills of exchange drafts of any kind; but
that the receipt was for so much money Mr. Shan
non says had he been aware of the conditions in
which the affair is represented here he would have
brought copy OF that receipt. That no public do
cument or communication or one line, since he sent
home Benjamin Green with the dispatches, has
been addressed to him, which is nearly six months,
except one from Mr.. Buchanan, notifying him Of
his appointment as Secretary of State. The Govern
ment have not expressed wish to him that he
should give them his views regards the condition
of Mexico, the affairs Of that country, Mr.. Shan
non Is preparing some very strong papers for pub
licanon, SO look out for squalls. He will kick up
quite young earthquake by the den0uements and
erpose he will put forth to the public. From all
counts Mr. Shannon has been treated very shabbily
by the existing Government Nothing remains for
hm but to use prompt and energetic means to vindi
cate himself from false aspersions, and show the
manner of his treatment in its most clarinq colors
! to the world. There is a screw loose somewhere,
and II Is hoped that Mr. Shannon will point it out
TO the satisfaction OF all Nous re,rons.


JULY 4,-Ihe settlement of annexation has come
upon us like national salute for great victory
Father Ritchie can scarcely stand in his shoes
Mr.. Walker is the happlest man this side of me-
thodlst revlval-the whole Cabinet appear to be in
| aagfa Mr. Mo~~ <...L~ II.
and says he expected it all along); and Mr. Ban
croft (who hopes there will be no difficulty in Con-
gress about its ratfication). 1t is said that the
Princeton has been ordered, or will be, to come
grand festival on board-the big guns OF to be fred
Mr.. Benz. E. Green is expected shortly to write
another letter on those instalments-Mr. Shannon's
statement to the contrary notwithstanding.
