[Translation.—Extract.]
San Juan Bautista, Tabasco, February 2, 1866.
My most Distinguished Friend: I profit by the opportunity that presents to-day to answer three letters I have had the pleasure of receiving from you. * * *
I received the third yesterday, containing an extract from an official paper of the publication of the supreme decrees prolonging the presidential term, and the trial of General Ortega. * * *
The decrees, which I have already seen, were very well received in this State, and I will order them to be solemnly published to-morrow. * * *
Have the goodness to remember my request to be kept informed of everything of interest to our cause and to the President, to whom I enclose you a letter.
Your true friend,
G. MENDEZ.
The Minister Don Matias Romero, Washington.
