He is located 100 miles from Mexico City. He writes this report in order to make the steamer leaving January 23. They arrived January 13 and he went immediately to the Governor of Vera Cruz who was quite cordial, but who said the proper person to see was Minister Roblez of the Agricultural Department. He went on a tour of the interior, trying to see as much as possible of matters and things in about Mexico. The Pennsylvanians were given passage on the railroad to Solidad and offered to them and now do not have money left. Longnemare is disappointed in the Pennsylvanians, but those in the party from Illinois and Missouri are braver, better behaved, and more intelligent men and will not leave Vera Cruz until he did. He describes their two day journey from Vera Cruz to Cordova, the last 23 miles on foot. The Comisario of the municipality was powerless to aid them or even to give any information. He has visited many plantations and inspected the lands around here, all of which are for sale, but cannot be bought. He shall give an explanation of this in his next letter. From Cordova on, the land and climate are perfect. Unless he can succeed with the government, the whole thing will have to be abandoned, and American emigration will be at an end. He would not advise anyone to come without a capital of $20,000 for living is so expensive. He gives a list of the 22 arrivals here. All letters sent to him should be sent by Mr. Arroyo or send to Havana. Letters addressed to Mexico just do not arrive. He asks to be remembered to Mrs. McMaster, Mrs. Brown, and Miss Brown. ` P.S. He asks that two American one horse ploughs be sent to them in care of Bourcy and Montandon, Vera Cruz. :: I-1-m A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
