Sumner, Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1859; by CARLOs Butterfield, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the United States, for the Southern District of New York. PREFACE. Two years ago th8 Subscriber issued a Pamphlet, the object of which was to bring before the Congress of the United States, certain facts having a direct bearing upon his proposed line of Mail Steamers from New Orleans or Mobile to Mexican ports in the Gulf of Mexico, and in support of his application to the Government of the United States for such reasonable compensation, in view of the mail service to be performed, as would justify him in establishing said line of Mail Steamers. Since the period referred to, important changes in Mexico, and important changes in our relations with that country have taken place. The Mexican question is rapidly becoming the leading question in our national politics, and in again bringing the subject of the proposed line of United States and Mexican Mail Steamships before the Congress of the United States, the subscriber has been induced to issue a publication having the same end in view as his previous pamphlet, and which, in addition, will give to the public, such general information and facts as will be likely to lead to a better understanding as to the importance of inaugurating a new commercial system or policy, not only with Mexico but with all the Spanish American countries. The particular enterprise herein proposed, is considered the first and most important step on the part of private individuals, towards acquiring those vast commercial advantages with Mexico, which only await our action in the premises.
