TIE 1uHrr MilLioNE-The "Union" contra.
diets the statement ofihe Washington correspond.
cnt Of the New York Couisr and Enquirer that
the three millions secret service money Tas on IN
way TO Mexico The same correspondent in the
Enquirer Of the 9th ins allndIng to Mr. Rilehies
denial Of the fact, puts the following direct qucs.
ton 20 himi


lsf Has not Mr., Buchanan gwen 10 Mr Tf5t
an authority 20 draw for the three millions. which
authority, in the nature Of letter Of credit, is
signed by the Secretary Of State, and sanctioned
or coun,ersigned by the Secretary Of The Treasury,
and also by the Tfeasurcrof the United States.


9. Has Mr.. Tnsl no authority from the Secre-
tnry Of State, or the Secretary Of the Treasury,
or the Treasurer Of the United States, or any or
either Of them, to draw for this money! As The
editor Of the Union has thought proper TO appear
TO contest my statements, | wish an emphatic an
swer 10 this question, assert that he has such
an authority, and that a call BY Congress for all
tie papers will bring il oul.


3D. Mr. Rtchie says "tlut no drafts, as far as
we are advised have been made upon that ap-
preparation from Mexico" these are important
words Of MIR Richie "so fan az ne are adciscd"
Well, we will now advise ihe worthy editor, that
arrangements are made, By which the money can
be- made available upon Mr. Trists drafts many
hundred miles south Of Washington, and no very
peat distance from Vera Cruz. And we now
make our parting bow to Mr.. Richie, with the ex-
preston of a hope that he will never cause ms
again to waste so much time by any future al
tempt on bis part to discuss matters in relation to
which the sequel will show that Mr., Buchanan
keeps him as profoundly ignorant, as he did when
he proposed the 49th parallel Of Oregon to Mr..
Pakonham, when Mr. Ritchie declared that he
and the Secretary Of State would have "nll or
none"
