TUB 1UXIUAN COMMISSION. The international committee ap pointed to negotiate a commercial treaty between the United S'atos and Mexico is making satisfactory progruas in the work. It is learned the frco Hat han been ngroed upon , which , al though it docs not greatly increase the number of articles Imported frco Into the United Statee from Mexico , does noverthclccs , remove n number of un necessary dutioa. Among the articles upon whoso frco importation Mexico lava particular stress , Is eugar not above No. 10 Dutch standard in color. This ia sought not o much with * view to Immediate free exportation of such sugar from Mexico into the Untied States for the pnr pose of encouraging and developing the cull tire of cane and the mannfao- turo of BURar in the former country , In tix yfan , during which the treaty is to ccintlnun in force , It Is hardly possible , In the opinion of Mexican representatives , that the exportation of sugar from Mexico should roach any very coeidorablo proportions , At the iamo time the development of sugar manufacture there In connection with frco admission of agricultural Imple ments and machinery from the United States would give frco play to nn Important industry and bo reciprocally bonoGoi.il to both countries. The list of articles to bo imported free i f duty from the United States Into Mexico his been considerably enlarged. Among other thipgt , there has boon nddod to It petroleum , crude aod refined - fined , for illuminating purpose ; ; ma chinery , agricultural implements , tools for B' ' taiio , and houses niado of iron and v d. A provision has bpou vir tual ! ) jreccl [ to which will relieve the comu co ol the United States from the i > nslt duties hitherto imposed upon ods passing from state testate wlthi' the republic of Mtxioo. Pro- visioi'H will probably be ngroid upon to permit iho transpDrUtlou of com modities from the United States to Mixico and from Mexico to the United States under the the terms of this treaty in ships owned by oitlzons of vithor republic , wh'ch ' have boon built within the ter ritory of either ; in other words , to allow tndo hotweon the two countries under the treaty to bo carried on In ships built in the United States , and bought by a citizen of Mrxiuo , or ) uilt in Mexico and bought by a citi zen of the United States. Other im- ) orUnt provision ! , are under consider ation , but it is bollovod they have not ret taken final shape. CAUCUS DICTATES.
