The Last Interview Between the Bmvcror and Slidell?The "Persecuted South"?Ike Mexican Imbroglio?It the United Stales Menaced??Bitter teelina Ayaintt England. and Spain?J%e Emperor't Prospective Slice of Mexico Bit Former Intrigues for Sonera, dc. 1 stated in my last letter that, since the receipt of a re. pert from M. Mercier and his jonrney to Richmond, John Sid ell had bad another interview with the Emperor. I knew then the fact to be as stated, but had not learned the particulars, which have since been given, and are from a source which renders them perfectly reliable, and which are of a character to enhance the Importance of the interview itself. In order to make the matter fully understood. I must ftve you an idea of some of the babita of tbe Slidell fhmily. Since they moved into their apartments 4b the Champe Ely sees, every Thursday evening has been devoted to receptions, which have been attended by nil respectable Southerners in Paris (and some, perhaps, who would net strictly be entitled-to that denomination) as well aa by a considerable number of French families. Mrs. Slidell and her daughters, however, have had It distinctly understood that they make no calls, and, while happy to see all their friends, return no visits and go nowhere, alleging an their reason the present melarcboly and dilapidated condition of "the country" which they Oantre to represent at this court, and which melancholy and dilapidated condition is supposed to cause them to shed eo many mitaphorical tears that they would not look well in society. The result has been that, with very rare exceptions, they have not visited at all. Well, on the evening in question, last week, the Minister of the Interior?the Count de Persigny?gave one of his "private receptions," distinguished from a public recep tion by the fact of none being present except upon invi tation. A card wan sent to Mr. Slidell the day before, requesting his presence, but he sent an excuse, and did out come. In tli* couth* of the evening, however. the Count de Pe.oigny ordered up bis carriage, and, getting into it, worn bitnsell to Mr. Slidell's resilience, and sent word up to Liiu that it was a matter of the greatest importance thai he should come. Mr. Sliilell got icte the carriage with Persigny, and drove to bis residence, where the "Ambassador" found a considerable assemblage of the very highest personages of Paris, and among them no lea* important an individual than bis Majesty Napoleon the Third, with whom it is said Mr. 81 id ell sat in a corner and chatted for nearly an hour. This was only a day or two before the departure or Persigny Tor England, whither It is supposed be has gonu upon but met* connected with Americas affairs?either ours or those of Mexico. 1 should like to be able to in form yon what the Era per er said to Slidell, and am sorry that it m nut in my power; but we begin to believe here that the ide* of intervention on the part of bis Majesty kas assumed a new form, and that bis mediation will be used, if used at all, to induce the rebels to lay down ibeir arms and relinquieb a struggle which Is daily growing more hope leas. The flidel.s are doing everything Id tbelr power to create and keep up a sympathy for the "persecuted South," and sat examples of self denial and auffering which are really wonderful. Wbea they first came to Paris the original idea waa to make a "splurge;" and with this object among other ^things a magnificent equi page wss purcbaaed, and three liveried servants em ployed to assist at the afternoon drivea of Mrs sod the Misses SUideli, in the avenue de l'lmperatrioe. In a short tinie, however, the tactics were changed, and Miss 81i dell (the roung lady who boasted ef her heroic feat of striking Lieutenant Fairfax) insisted upon the replacing ?f toe splendid equipage by a muck more modest one, which was actually dona, and the Southern sympathiser* were teld that tha reason ef this was that the family of the "Ambassador," feeling so keenly the suflbrmgs of their brethren at h"me, did not thu.it it right to spend money on se much show. At leegth light is breaking in upon the mysterious design of the Emporor in Mexico. The rupture between the allied rew?r? and the departure of England and Spain from the Hold of action have been the means of bringing out at least the determination of France to establish a monarchy upon the American continent. In conversa tion yesterday. however, with a liberal journalist of Paris, he expressed the idea that when the aut detach merit of treop?, under Lorencet, went to Mexioo, the commanding ort.eer had orders to march to the city, which orders had not been counter manded. The Emperor's plans he thinks, however, have lean modified by the re<ent federal successes, and particularly by the capture of New Orleans, and we tftink his Majeaty will give up the idea ef making ?? queen on American son. Apropoeof this, in an article apoo Mai.can aflelrs, whtcb just at preeent furnish the prmeijial topic of conversation la tha political circle of Paris, the umpired /'afrit a few evenings since made the following carioes remark?"Everybody utider?Uuds that the future of Havana depends upon tbe success of the expedition wbich Ktarce is now carrying ou in Mexi co." Wbat the t'&trv means t?y this It doee not ex plain, and the only reasonable theory in wrplanatioa of it Is that given hy tbe Prtmt in reply te it, in which it is regarded as a rnenaee against tbe I nited states. Tbe I'm* says ?< The article in tbe Patri* mesas nothing. or, if tt has anf meaning, it It a menace against the raited States. The movement may seem however, bally chosen for a provocation. Xhe partisan* of the Union, who are crushing out tbe flnsurgents of the South, are taking coerage and reforming, and tlis rebel army, disorganized and shaken by its reverses of every description, dads, bursting beneath Its very feet, mines of patriotism and enthusiasm for the I'nion. In all jhto fcahlllty the United Histes, in a short time reconstituted, will be without <?4vrr?aries before them, at the head of a respectable army, and [o>?-seed of an iron clad navy ?f a powerful character I nder there c I reum* Unices. ? it the lime, on atreunt ef an Austrian Archduke, to seek s n'liimi witb tbsnif No ^-etwib'e pet sun can tbiiik i>f 0 .oh a tbing. and we are inclined te believe tbat Hhs Patri*, in speaking :>s It has done has not precisely welghsd the Importance of it. wor.tr" The seini official journals breathe a very bitter spirit against England and Spain for tbe courss which they havo been Ot to take in the Mexican atlair, and there m reasonable ground to bop* that beiore tbey gat through with this matter their attention may be dis t> acted from war* in the New Worid to une which they ?ay hare on hand between themselves. li is possible that the Emperor may conclude to give j up his Mexican hope*; bull do not believe it, as it is understood here that upon the elevation of the Arch duke Maximilian to the Mexican throne, in consider" *liou of the part which Francs hus acted in the mat' ter, she is to motive the concession as a trench colony of ths whola state of Sonura. This has been a fa. verity soli emu ot Napoleon ever sines his ele vation to the French threns. In 1865 M. Dillon, the French Consul at Ssa Krancisso, of course In obedience to orders from his sovereign, was scheming with ths Alvarez party with this sod in view, and gave secret encouragement and assistance to ths fllibustsring expedition which departed from San Antonio, undsr the command of the unfortunate Count Raousset ds Boujhou. Depend uj~ u it, if ths Emperor's schsmss in Mexico ripen mto reality, he will have a large share of ths fruit. All thiii tEe official Journal has deigMd to say editor!, ally mj relation to Msxican affairs is contained in tho uon , official portion of the Moniteur of this morning. In Order to justify the course pursued by the plenipotentiaries of the Emperor in Mexico, it gives the preamble and first and second articles of the London convention, and then gives an extract from the instructions given inNovember last to Admiral de la Graviere, in which, in rww of fu. turecontingencies.be la ordered to encourage the Mcxi. can people in their endeavors to establish a "stable go*, ernment." Copies of these instructions were sent, the article states, to the cabinets of London and Madrid The Viceroy of Egypt, Said Pacha, with bis nephew. Mustepha Pacha, and a numerous suite, arrived hers on Sunday evening, and are now the Hons of Paris. General Goyon left Rome on the 18th, and ho and the Prince Napoleon are expected to arrive in Paris abeut the same time, in a day or two. ? The Society of Acclimation have decided to have a grand "World's Exhibition" of dogs, to take place in May, 1803. Count .A goner de Gasparin, the author of "The Uprising of a Great People," has just published another work entitled, "America in the Eyes of Europe?Prtociple and | Interest. ' in which the whole American question is dis cussed with the same clearness of manner, elegance of stylo and Justness of appreciation which made his for mer work so popular.

It is certainly provoking to tabs up the Moniteur day after day and find nothing in ths columns of the official fournal which gives us any satisfactory information upon ths present all absorbing question of Mexico, and what the Emperor will "do with i?.? The Moniteur of this morning contains several columns of reports and statis tics upon crime in France, and several mors about to bacco, but not a word about Mexioo, any more than if auch a country did not exist under the sun and was not now invaded by French troops As the official journal throws no light upon the subject, w? are forced to depend for information upon the "officious" organs of the government, such as the Patrie, ?he ComtuuUonnrl and the Pan-; and, judging from the tone of these, it would appear that thsre is no truth in the report published in a London journal that the Empe ror has seen the error of his ways, had repented him of his design upon Mexico, and had determined to withdraw his troops as soon as possible. On the contrary bitter m?s and hostility toward England and Spain character ize the articles of thess journals, and thsy represent that the Emperor is determined to pursue his plans in Mexico solitary and alone, and to the "bitter end." The Patrie indeed states that a large number of merchant vessels have been taken up by the government to carry pro visions to the troops in Mexico. A great variety of rumors are in circulation?among them that at a council of ministers held on Saturday, at which the 1 Emperor presided, he expressed himself in very decided terms against any change of programme, and it was de cided that tbe French troops should remain in the city of Mexico till October, when twenty thousand fresh sol diers were to be sent out; that the occupation is to con tinus three years; that England has formally protested ?gainst tbe present attitude of France; that a specie, messenger has been sent to the Queen of Spain, and that M. Thonvenel is about sending a circular to tbe foreign diplomatic agents explaining the present position of the French government in the Mexican matter. In the mean time public opinion is very much excited and divided The organs of the liberal party?the Siecle. ths Presse and the Opinum National*?are as severe upon tbe govern a&ent as they dare to be, and the anti-imperial party is making use of the Mexican movement as a means of ex citing still further a rapidly growing discontent against the present ruling power. It is by no means impossible that Mexico may be the rock upon which tbe imperial power of France may split. The Bourse has been affect ed by the affair, and the rentes are falling ever? day and moneyed men shrug their shoulders and shake their heads, and express anxiety, and say that the financial alttirs of France will always be kept unsettled so long as Franes is disposed to incur enormous annual expenses in settling tne political a Hairs of other nations. The fac, is, thinking msn in France are becoming alarmed at this disposition of his Majesty to make himself tbe arbiter of tha destinies of the world, and are growing more and mora discontented with ft ruler whose course is so uncertain, and whose acts seem to be con trolled by no fixed principles?a ruler who seems to delight In continually surprising and startling the world, and for the gratiflcatien of whore fancies thoy are re quired to pay. It is said that the Spanish blood af the Empress has been soused, and that she baa given his Majesty " a piece of her mind'' about his course in regard te Mexico which was not at all flattering to him. It never seems for ft moment to enter the heads of the government partisans that there will be any serious obstaele in the way of carrying out the plans in Mexice. It seems taken for granted that the French soldiers are invincible, and that ttay have but to " come and see and conquer," and thftt the Mexiaana will offer them no serious resistance It seems to be doubted ftlmoet whether the vomit? of VeraCrus will not pase them harmlessly by; aad one of the journal? asserts that that city, Instead of being peetileat aad deathly, is a delightfully healthy and agree able place. It does not seem te be considered that the United States, evan If the force of circumstances should require her to be a mere protesting spectator now, will, when her present domestic difficulties are settled, fal| back upon the Monroe doctrine as the only safeguard of republicanism on the American continent, and, uniting with it, if need be,all the republics of North and South America, (all of which, If the Mexican scheme succeeds, are menaced,) drive back the invaders, or dethrone any monarch of their malting, and comment* the great battle which must one day be fonght between republicanism and monarchy. The end ie not yet. and it may be that the shrewd Emperor may yet And soma plausible pretax1 for fKoaptng from his present position befere it ia toe late to recede. The wanton destruction of cot too by the Southern rebels will not increase the sympathy for their cause In Europe, particularly now, when there seemed a prospect of a rtvival of trade and manufacture* by the opening of the Southern ports. It is indeed said that one of the objects of the Emperor la seeing Mr. Slldeil at Count Pessigny's reception?the particulars of whtch I gave you in my last !etter-*wftft to expreaa to him bia regret at the wasteful destruction of property, and particularly of the staple which the world sa much needed, and that be ex|>r"?se<1 to Mr. Slldetl the hope that this would not continue, and that Mr. Slldell has informed hill "govern meet" of the subject af tha conversation. This is one of the rumors. A claim 10 a most remarkaMe invention has been mads by a M. Ward. who profeeees ta have discovered a plan by which rail cars can be propelled without wheels and without tomtoMves. Experiments have already been made near Malmatson upon ft track about ? hundred yards in length, and tbe Emperor has witnessed some of them? bis Majesty deigning te undertake to move a large cur by u?hl!)g it gontlf with hia walking stick, which he succeeded in doing, very much to his own surprise and that of his suite. In M. Oirard* new plan sledge* upon runners which move upon ptveta. so to fteomrno date themselves in the curves af the road, are used, in Stend <if ordinary cars and wheels, and ttie rails upon which the> ar? run rtre c>>rm|<!er,.h!y broador th*n those in ordinary use ui m rMiwsye K<?? ti.o amount of power requisite to start a tm upen ?fi<-els m an ordinary rftilwty is fiom ten to i?,rl(.ua "uji'i*, while u?a M.

Another pe culiarity ?f his system is the suppression of mcosaatlvea; the motiva power baing also watar. A aariaa of ata ttonary engines, placed at intervals of ten kilometrea (six miles), compress water into a metal tube, and the pressure thus obtained?equal to aaven or eight atmos pheres?1a communicated to tranaveraal pipes, placed at intervals of flity yards, and provided each with a lateral oriflre, which its opened and than cloeed by tha train itself as it passas. the watar, issuing from the orifice with a certain decree ofviolence.strikesasoriesoi curved floats. like those of water wheels, and placed under tha floor of each carriage. By thia ineana the experiments prove that a traiu may be propolled at tha rate of fifteen miles an hour aloug gradients of oua and four-tlftha inches par yard. The Emperor is said to be enthusiasti cally interested in this new mode of traasportotion, and experiments are shortly to be made upon a much larger scale than they have heretofore bean. Another invention, more iu accordance with the spirit of the times, is alleged to have bean made by a person near Rochelle, who, it is said, has been engaged ten years in perfecting it. Be claims that, by an application of electric power, he can concentrate at tho moment of discharge all tha guns on the side of a vessel upon any given point on tha enemy's vessel or fortifications, and that no iron plates, however thick, could resist the terri ble effects of such a converging fire. The Emperor has sent the inventor a flattering letter, and conferred upon him the decoration of the Legion of Honor. Americans are becoming thick m Paris, many arriving by the steamers and many returning from their winter tours through Italy and Germany. It is said that Archbishop Hughes, who is now in Rome, whero he will remain to attend the ceremony of the ca nonization of the martyrs of Japan, has presented his Holiness the Pope with the snug sum of $200,000, col lected for that purpose from "the faithful" in his dio cess. The celebrated physician Civiale, who performed the operation for stone upon the Eing of Belgium, has just received >60.000 francs and a decoration from his Majesty for the job. The Camp of Chalons is to be inaugurated on the 20th. Caiirobsrt is in oommand. Bishop Purcell, of Cincinnati, has arrived hare on bis way to Rome. THE AMERICAN QUESTION. The anxiety relative to news from America was daily becoming more and more intense among tbe commercial classes of England, and false rumors wore in constant circulation. Tbe London Times publishes, without vouching for its authenticity, a private despatch received by the steamer Bremen, to the effect that '-The Confederates in Virginia had been defeated and surrounded." The London AVios had also given currency to a report that a private despatch, dated May 12, had been receiv ed per North American, via Cape Race, and that it quot ed United States sixes of '81 at 106>?. No confirmation of either of these despatches had been received through the regular channels, and the arrival of the America was anxiously awaited, that they might be either confirmed or disproved. The London Timet remarks that it is now deprived of any information from the seat of war except that which tbe federal government is pleased to prepare for home and foreign consumption. The London Army and Navy Gazette regrets that a British military commission has not been appointed to the headquarters of the federal army. In the House or Commons on the 23d ult., Mr. Mild may asked what steps the government intended to take in the case of the steamer Bermuda, which had been seized by a federal ship of war on her passage from ene British eolony to another. Mr. Layard said government had received information of the seizure, and the case had been referred to thelaw officers of tbe Crown. The London timet says that tbe details of the capture of New Orleans stow the surrender of tbe city in a light more creditable to tbe defenders, and the surrender, after such a contest as took plaoe, is divested of anjr re proach. It argues that the subsequent occurrences plainly show the fierce and resolute spirit of the Southern people, and says:? From this we are to conclude that a stubborn defen sive warfare, a campaign of positions, will be carried on by skilful and ietperate men who rule the Southern con federation. It may be so; but certainly the progress of the North, though sometimes slow, has been hitherto sure, and if place after place be abandoned there must come a time when the rest will be hardly worth defend ing. Of the future we know little; it can only be said that the South has fanaticism and desperation to oppose to tbe superior numbers, wealth and the military ap pliances of tbe North, and that the contest may rage with greater fury than ever (luring the next few weeks. The Paris Conttitutwnnel, in a conspicuous leading arti cle on the actual state of the civil war, says:? 'l'he capture of New Orleans Is a great victory for the North; but it has not modified the struggle. Tne North, advancing deep into the 3outh,twili meet with insur mountable obstacles. The end it further off than ever. Those who urge tlie North to establish its sway on san guinary ruins and devastation are not aware oi the sad ? uture they would prepare for the whole of America? namely, emancipation tor tour millions of negroes and slavery for six millluns of whites. Arguments relative to the restitution of the ship Emily St. Pierre to the federal government were being carried on,pro and con., in the columns of the Liverpool journals; and, while It was urged by some writers that the de mand of the American government for the restitution ought to be complied with, it was maintained by others that the demand could not be legally sustained. THE INVASION OF MEXICO. The London Globe says that England has washed ber hands ef the Mexican business, and retains only that bold over tbe customs of Vera Cruz essential to compel the Mexican government to discbarge its debts to fciig iisb subjects. Tbe Paris correspondent or tbe Ixmdon Qlnbt says, in regard to tbe French occupation or Mexico, mat tbe plan of operations has been fully decided upou in tbe Imperial councils and Cubmet. The metropolis of Mexico is to bj occupied under every contingency, and garrisonwd until tbe 20tb of tbe coming October, wbeu, tbe yellow fever season being over, a iresb army is to be forthcoming, and every strategic position in tbe whole country seized on. There is to l>e a three years'occupation by trench troops, to allow time for tbe development ot the national will. The EtyrU Public in a measure confirms this; it be lieves a council of ministers bad deliberated en Mexican affairs, and decided that the expedition should be pursued, and that tbe Cabinets of Madrid and Louden ware made acquainted with tbe resolution. A Madrid despatch say*.? A telegram received here from London states that England and Spain have both entirely approved tbe con duct of their plenipotentiaries in Mexico. The English Cabinet is said to have invited the Cabinet of Madrid to declare the treaty concluded at London to have lapsed. MiPRlli. Mny 24, 1882. It is stated that Gen. Prim will be authorized to return to Mexico as Spanish Ambassador. F!e will be lustrwci ed to present his credential* to only the constituted government and to Juarez. Great Britain. In the House of Commons, on the 22d ult., tbe bfll gi ving certain power to the United Kingdom Telegraph Com pany, to whom the introduction of the uniiorm shilling tariff is due, was passed to a second reading. I/wd Fulmerston stated In reply to Mir Jvha Faking ton tbat government was not prepared to Introduce any mea sure on the subject of cLurcb rates. Mr. Layard.in reply to Mr. Griffith, said the con tinuance uu the part of the I'acha of Egypt af the employ ment of foreod labor on tbe Suez Canal was a matter which had been dlscnsscd ami settled between the go vernments which were interested in the question Mr: Malcolm asked whether tbe alien; ion of bar Ma jesty's government has been directs I to an advertise ment of tbe Mrltish Columbia Overland Transit Company, in which offers are made to convey flvohundred emi grants from England W British Columbia direct, tbe p.is -wge money to be .?42, and the journey te occupy live weeks whether it was aware tbat a vessel is to start from (ilasgow en tbe 31st of May with a largo number of persons who have engaged their parage on tbe terms of such advertisement; whether ber Maje<ty'a ICmlgra tiou Commissioners have satisfied themselves that the British ColnmbMtTransMOimpany have ma<le arrange ments and have it In tbetr power te carry the emigrant* to British Columbia in the iotins <i(their advertisement, and whether they havo considered the probability of tbe intend lag emigrants being starved between Montreal and British Columbia. Mr. C. I'ortescue said that the attention of the govern ment had Witt directed to the prospectus In question, and seme inquiries had been made in reference to it. He believed that arrangements were being mads, and as the emigrants were principally young men, he believed th< y were likely to accomplish Uie journey in safety. In tne House of Commons on the 2iJd ult., Mr Hon mm gave notice that when tbe projiused motion for re trenchment une up be will mors an amendment, as sertHig that the suuis voted for the military and naval services of tbe oountry have net been greater than its requirements. Sir Kobert Peel reasserted, in res|?nseto Mr. Msgulre, that tbe dietree* in Ireland had not been nearly so great as represented, that it was on the (fee,Hue, and that go vernment had done its duty ih flu matter.

Cotton.?This market is now entirely controlled by the news received from America by each successive steamer. Immediately after our last issue, the announcement of an intention on the part of the federal government to open some of the Southern port*, caused a decline of fully one penny per lb. on American descriptions; but subsequent reimrU of large quantities of cotton being committed to the flames along the Mississippi river, created a reaction,and three-fourths of a penny of the decline was recovered.

HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO, Arrival at Key Vest of the United States Frigate Potomac from Vera Crux. The Repulse of the French Par tially Confirmed. They Protest Against the Treaty Batifled With the United States. REPORTED RETREAT TO VERA CRUZ Jbc?i fto*i Jbs? Oar Ten Crai Correspondence. Vbiu Cum, May 14,1802. Conflicting Report) from Puebla?Late Advice* fromtht Capital?Treaty with England?Progress of the Almonte Party?General Trial in Command at Mexico City? What May Bt Expected of Him?The French Commit, tioners Protest Against the Treaty with the United States? Filibuster Excitement?Irighful Ravage* of the Vo mito?New Line of French Steamers, dtc. Here we are all excitemont over the reports received from the Interior?the adherents of the Juarez government are in high spirit*, and the Almonte people have long faces. The reports are these:?Ob the 4th inst. the French attacked Puebla, and after a severe action were forced to retire, with the loss of some 1,000 killed and wounded, and 200 Zouaves, who were taken prisoners. The following day (the 6th) the French made anew effort to take the place, and wore again defeated with heavy loss. The French were 4,000 strong in their attack, and their movements were directed by General Lorencez in person. The reports also say that at the last moment the French were retreating, and the Mexicans, under General Tapia, were preparing for pursuit, and that there remained little doubt but tbe French would be entirely annihilated. The same reports com* accom panied by an account of the defeat of Marqoez near Pwebla, so that for the Juarez partisans better advices could not be fabricated. Many here giro the fullest credence to these rumors, and othera believe they are entirely false. For my own part, I do not believe it possible that the reports from Puebla can be true, or that the French could have managed so badly as to have met with any serious re verse. To-day or to-morrow we must have positive ad vices. There are already contrary rumors, which say tbe French have long since passed Puebla. There is a greet scarcity of reliable adviccs from the interior, and it would appear that the couriers despatched from the French camp for this city have so far all fallen into the bands of the Mexicans. Our advices from the capital are to the 0th inst. Gene ral Ortega had arrived there with bis forces from Zacate cas and San Luis Potoei. The government was urging the Governors of States to furnish their contingents with the least possible delay. To raise money the government had doubled nearly all of the old imposts. There was still a great want of money, and it was expected new do mande would be made on the capitalists of Mexico. With all the preparations that were being made in the capital it was doubtful tf the govsrnment would stay, in ca^e the French move on. Aero was a large party In favor of moving the capital to one of the interior cities, and this, it is probable, will now be done. The Mexican i?pers announce that a treaty has been fully concluded between England and Mexico, by which all pending questions are settled. TOis treaty was first agreed to at Puebla by Debiado on the part of Mexico and by Commodore Dunlep and Mr. Wyke on tbe part of Eng land, and has since been approved of by President Juarez. The nature of this treaty has not been made public, but English residents ot' the capital manifest great dissatis faction, saying that any new paper guarantee from the Mexicans is merely an aggravation of the wrongs they have already suffered. Great hopes are now built by a certain class of people upon the prospect of the American treaty being rati lied, and there are those among tne Mexicans who arc greatly opposed to this treaty, saying that it is jumping out of the frying pan into the tire for ths Mexicans to throw themselves on the Americans lor protection. The enthupiatim of the Almonte party appears not to bare piissed the city of Mexico as yet. In tbe valley of Tlaxcaia, and at Matauioros, Izucar and neighboring populations, the Almonte plan has l>eon accepted. but to wards the interior it bus not yet met wltb mueh favor. In Mexico anil other plaoes occupied by government troops great efforts are being made to raise the National liuard. In Mexico General l'rias hus command of that force. lie was in a similar position when Gomonfort fe.l, and it is a notorious fact that on the afternoon of the last day of the fight he was completely abandoned by all of bis onicer* and most of his men, and that he was carried away l'rom bis post at a luto bo ir in a most happy stale, having oonfineil bis operations during the day t<> the con sumption ot brandy and water. With such forces as ins National Guard of Mexico there will not be much blood shed. The French Commissioners have made a protest against the ratification of tne treaty with the United States, in so far as it may interfere with securities likely to be askud for by France to secure her claims against the country. There lias been some exdtement in Chihuahua on ac count of the invasion of lhai,Slale by Colonel Heller with a small forcu of Texans. The pretext of Boiler was that be was hunting Apacltes; but this failed to give quiet to the inhabitants of Chiuuahiia, who saw in Beiler nothing but a filibuster. The town of Piedras, ie Nueva Leon, has also b?en invaded by sjine one hundred and twenty Americans, who appear to have no connection with Kel ler. At Piedras the population fired upon the inveders, declaring they were filibusters. tiieai stagnation prevails m tbe capital and all the in terior rities, except tlioftu which make their importations by tbe west coast or frontier. The roads remain in the same deplorable state as ever. In this port everything is now dull. The French are expecting reinforcements, and that is about tbe only tbtag we have to anticipate. The tusrenant* are doing nothing, and consequently wear long faces. Tbe Spaniards have nearly all gone, but a few of that expedition remaining. I suppose these will get off in a few days. The vomlto continues here in full force and the mor tality is heavy. The Freucli have lost twenty ofHeers by the vomito in this plaee. and the deaths amoug their sol diers have boon in pro|>ortion. Ibe government of thia oily Is now occupied In send ing off small expeditions to towns on the coast, to induce them to pronounce for Almonte. In this way the will of Ibe nation is to be obtained?at the point of the bayonet. Hie first steamer of the new French line of packets has arrived here, bringing eighty paaseagsrs. To-morrow she sails again fer France. A number of the French vessels sailed from here after the departure of Admiral Jurien 4* laGraviere. Tbe rea son for withdrawing is the prevalence of tbe vomlto.
