THE DISMISSAL OF THE FRENCH
MINISTER.,
tho New York Courier and Enquirer of
yesterday, has a long recital of the alleged
difficultice between the Cabinet and M.Potis
Bin—given on its own authority and vouch
ed for as reliable—which led to the recent
rupture.
It appears from this atatomcnt, which is
too long for our space to-day, that the diffi
culty dates back into the Mexican war.
FirBt, a Frenchman in Mexico, who had
had some tobacco seized and sold, and had
had restitution made for,it—afterwards pre
ferred a claim, through M. PouspiQ for da
mages, which a court of enquiry had over
ruled, as unfounded, ctiieily on the testimo
ny of Col. Childs.
Hut according to the C. E., the imme
diate cause of this rupture grew out of ano
ther affair of the Mexican war. A stranded
French ship was got off by commander Car
penter &crow, at tho request oftlie French
captain, for which the commsnder demand
ed salvage bat this being refused,the claim,
was waived, and the vessei, after a deten
tion of some thierty hours, released and the
conduct of commander C. was subsequently
case, Mr. Buchanan went out of office. Mr.
Clayton gave.it his attention very soon af
ter taking his seat as Secretary ef State,
and after due examination, affirmed the de
cision, and in answer to a note of inquiry
from tho French Minister, conveyed to him
his approval of the verdicj. and his refusal to
allow the claim.
"To this letter Major Piius&in replied, in
a very haughty tone, charging Col. Childs,
aj he had frequently done before in conver
sation, with the basest motives, intimating
that he had perjured himself under their in
fluence, and using other most offensive and
insulting language. At the time this letter
was received at the State Department, Ma
jor Fousein wao not in Washington, but in
New York. Ho was iinmeeiately apprized
by tho Secretary of State, that his presence
at Washington waB necessary. On repair
ing thither, and calling at the State Depart
ment, his letter was produced, and he wat
letter was produced, and be was told, that
although such a privilege was entirely out
of the ordinary course, and was deemed a
Bpecial favor, prompted by the earnest de
sire of the Government ofthe United States
to prevent any misunderstanding with the
Frcnch Minister-—ho wasatliberty to with
draw or to modify the document, or to re
place it in the archives of the Department
—as he might eeg (it. Ho offered to argue
the matter ant] t* defend the propriety of
the charges he had made and the language
he had used but he was informed by the
Secretary that the President did not deem
the point one forgumrnt at ni'. It was a
matter of etiquatt, and he had only to decide
whether be would withdraw the letter or
permit it to be replaced on file. Maj. I'ous
sin then withdrew the letter, and erased
some of its most offensive expressions. He
then again transmitted it to the State De
partment, end it was placed on file. And
here it was supposed that all difficulty would
end.
"The French Captain (says the C. & E.)
however, complained ot the treatment to
whicli he and his vessel had been subjected
by the detention, and the French Minister
addressed a note to the Secretary of State,
representing that the French flag had been
grossly insulted, and demanding the punish
ment, by dismissal or otherwise, of Com
mander Carpenter. Mr. Clayton deeming
the matter one for the action of the Navy
Department, referred it to Mr. Preston, the
Secretary, who procured from Commander
Carpenter a detailed statement of all the
fact" of the case. This statement, with the
accompanying evidence, was transmitted by
Mr. Clayton to the French Minister, ac
companied by a note expressing- the hope
that no offence was intended, and that it
would prnvo entirely satisfactory to. the
French Government.
'•Instead of submitting these documenf.6
to the French Government, the Minister
wrote to the Secietary of StaTe a letter, in
which he characterized the action of the De
partment on the hiibject in highly otfens'ue
terms, and saitl that he was very sorry to
find the American Government so utterly
insensible to the dignity, and so ignorant of
the interests of its -Marine service as it had
shown itself to be in this transaction.
"To this insulting note no reply was made.
Ity '.he President's direction, the whoie cor
respondence was immediately transmitted
to Mr. llush, our Minister at the French
Court, und he was instructed to lay it be
fore the French Minister for Foreign affairs
und the President, and to ask their atten
tion to the language which tlieir Ambassa
dor had seen lit to use. lie was not direct
ed to ask nny reparation, or any censure of
their Minister, but simply to call the attan
tion of the government to the ianguago in
which the despatch was couched. No doubt.
of course, was entertained, that immediate
and voluntorp reparation would be made.
Mr. llush accordingly laid the whole mat
ter before M. de Tocqueville, tho Frechn
Minister fur Foreign All'aira. He examin
ed the matter, and in a despatch addressed
to Mr. llush, and transmitted by him to our
Government, stated that the French Execu
tive saw no occasion for its action, and that
there had evidently, been unnecessary recri
mination and marked faults on both sidee,—
thus seeking to divide the reepoasibility
and directly inculpating our Government!
"This despatch, as so6n as received, wa6
submitted to General Taylor, who immedi
ately directed that no
further correspondence
should be held with the French Minister,
and ordered his passports to be at once made
out and placed at his disposal. At the same
time, the Secretary of State, under General
Taylor's direction, wrote td AJfr. Rush to
inform M. de Tocqueville, the French Min
ister for Foreign AftainOthat bis opinion
upon the Government hairnet been solici
ted—that action, and not criticism," was
what had been expected from him, and that
before this despatch should reach him, Ma
jor Poussin's passports would have been pla
ced at his disposal.

still it formed the matter of discussion
Without drawing definitive conclusions
from this statement, it allows one to see
with what kind of plans diplomats! heads
are busied. The Czar took up Alexan
der's journal, and read out of it the con
versation of that emperor with Napoleon.
Respecting Constantinople, nothing could
be agreed upon. It was the Emperor's
notion that Byzantium might one day be
left a free city, with some territory. It
was assumed that France, .Russia, and
Austria, with the help of Naples, would
be competent to produce a fleet able to
cope with that of England. I am yours.

LATEST~FROM CAL1FORNIA
The Empire City nrnyecTat N. Yorlc,
last week, bringing over $600,000 in gold
dust.
Amon#fts most important news is art
accounyT the outbreak of hostilities be
tweenjjmc Americans and foreigners—or,
rather the attempts of the former to whip
the latter frorv, the gold regions. At San
to
natives of Chili, and tore them
down, in the midst of shouts, screams,
and uproar indescribable! These men
called themselves "Bounds"—apparently
because they were resolved to hunt out
the foreigners. The citizens met, on the
proclamation of the Alcade, for the pur
pose of checking these disgraceful pro
ceedings, and seventeen of the "hounds"
were arrested. Their leader, Samuel
Roberts, was found guilty by his jury,
and sentenced to ten years' hard labor in
the penitentiaryf Theodore Sanders the
same and all the others were variously
sentenced to fines and confinement. We
perceive thattslsewhere—-at the placers
of the Middle Fork—armed men calling
themselves Americans went aboutto drive
the foreigners from the neighborhood.-
All who cannot speak Euglish are sent
packing for their lives. It is said that
the foreigners scattered over California
were 10,000 in number. It is very pro
bable that, in spite of the authorities and
the well-disposed, there will be aiqgjhi.yjto-.
lence and bloodshed at the placets, foij
some time lo come.
The elections for Judges, Prefect's,
Town-Council, Convention, and so forth, i
by General Riley. The Legislative As
sembly, which the Californiaus seemed
determined on, at'first, to make some form
of Government, is given up. So at least
the Atla California of July 19th says—
though we do not comprehend its state
ment. It stiews that- wkua .the Question
came to the vote, 167 were for the Legis
lative Assembly, and 7 against it. But it
says the rest of about 600 voters abstain
ed from voting, and that, therefore, the
Assembly is 110 go! The conclusion seems
rather misty but if the Franciscans aro
satisfied, so are we.
The Iiarbor Master of San Francisco
made a reord of the arrivals there, which
shows that the total number during July
was 3,164—of which 3,000 were Ameri
can^ 922 arrived from Boston, and 961

DEEP ULCERS.
Sheboygan, iris., March 2, 1849.
Dr. W. B. Sloan Dear Sir: In my opinion?
the greatest curcs effected are those" that havo
longcst'.rcsisted the skill ofthe Medical Facul
ty. .-Idmil.ting that to be a fact. I have a case
'fn point, to wit: Mr. Jrunes Hanford, of Sheboy
gan Falls, was crippled two years with five.
0 rge deep ulcers, just above the ankle. The
icg was so much swollen he cou'd not get on
a boot. Nearly all the most popular Phj'sicians
in various piaces have treated his case without
any beneficial effect.
Last August, Mr. Handford solicited my ad
vice. 1 succeeded in reducing the swelling,
and healed two of the sores. The other three
1 labored at till the first of Pcbruary, without
much, if any, benefit, when I gave him a bo\
of Sloan's Ointment, and in three weeks he was
well. Rcsprctfullv vours,

The Child was Healed.

Mr. W. B. Slo/tn—sir: Last summer one of
my children was badly bitten by a rattlesnake.
We applied your Oir.tment freely, and "the
child was healed."
Also, I had a horse wounded in the stifle
joint, in which he took cold, and became so
swollen and distressed, that fho horse was sup
posed worthless, but by a free use of your Oint
ment, was soon cured.
We have used the Ointment in a great ma
ny other cases, with equal success,
