We have concluded 10 call the public attention
again to those Mexican instalmens Of April and Ju-


y, 1874. Justice to Mr.. Shannon requires to say,
that we believe him in nowlse puticeps cr;miai


in these Ito say the leasD bungling transactions on


the part of the United States agents We did not
mean to incupate him. We only ask for full and
explicit account Of the matter from him; for though


innocent, he cannot be ignorant Of the stock obhng


drait-speculating character OF these aforesaid indem


nifty transactions. After ALL is not Mr. Green the
sponsble agent 10 the United States Mr. Vosss
and his SUBS and their subs may be responsible,


to Mr.. Green but IT Mexico produce the re


celpts OF payment duly authenticated then, it she


has not paid dollar, the fault appears TO be
chhargeable TO Mr.. Green He ought TO have known
better than rely upon Mr. Voss, he should have done
better than surrender this important agency 10
comparatively irresponsible authority But not only
Col. Benton, as we discover, but also Mr.. Shannon,
says that the Mexican Government raised the money
bya gyratefort. Where is the money! The claimants
want TO know-the public want to know-the govern
ment wants to know, and we all want to know. and
must know, and shall sft this matter TO the bottom
IN order 10 ascertain 1t now appears certain the
lace OF the provision and appropriation OF Congress
TO the contrary that the claimants upon the govern
ment TO these Mexican instalmenfs will have wait
again TILL the meeting OF Congress. Meantime, we


like the idea of special enquiry through special
deputy TO Mexico, upon the subject OF these moneys
We hope the administration Will do Itself the honor
and the claimants, so long bamboozled the Justice
OF special enquiry through special agent. And,
If party predictions could for moment be set
aside, we should feel assured In recommending Mr.


Cushing TO this mission. He is an able man--his
Chinese embassy one of the strongest redeem


ing points ot Tyler's administration. In that matter
he proved himself the Scholar the statesman, the d-
plomatist, and the true man of his country We
like such men. They contribute much 10 sustain,
aye, to elevate the national character abroad. We
seriously call the attention Of the Executive and
his advisers 10 these suggestions. SHEcKs.
