Later from Europe. --The European news by the City of New York is to the 3d July. --two days later. Advices to the 28th June say that at that period the Emperor of the French appeared to be uneasy in his mind on the subject of Mexico. His energy in sending out reinforcements had drooped, and great uncertainty prevailed in Paris, as to his intentions. A letter from Paris, of the 24th of June, says notwithstanding this there is immense excitement at Toulon in consequence of the preparations for the Mexican expedition. One of the local papers assuming that war, no matter for what purpose, is a subject for congratulation, exclaims joyfully, "We are in as great a bustle now as in the good old times of the Crimean and Italian campaigns." The rumor that the French army has retired as far as Orizaba, there to form a basis of operations, is but faintly denied.

He made no communication to Mrs. Allan about the letter from the time he placed it in the hands of Mr. -- to the day on which he received her note, (on the 24th of June, about twelve or fourteen day afterwards,) inquiring whether he had sent it. Saw — and inquired of him if he had sent the letter to its destination. Learned that he had not, but expected to have an opportunity to send it off in a day or two. Gen. John H. Winder w

he blue rascals captured. Our loss in this affair is represented to have been inconsiderable. This handsome exploit re much credit upon the troops engaged. The Yankee loss in the engagement of Wednesday afternoon is estimated by competent, judges at something over four thousand in killed, wounded and prisoners; while our own, at the outside, did not exceed four hundred, and some think three hundred will cover the entire casualties.
