like of the South shall lose all heart and hope. The House adopted yesterday a resolution supplementary to what is known as the "caucus reconstruction resolution," which will insure the reference of all papers relative to the so-called Confederate States to the joint committee of fifteen. Mr. Raymond and a few other Union Representatives voted against the resolution. Mr. Forney writes: "While there is a fixed determination not to admit any man in Congress whose hands were imbued ocating these warrants upon any lands belonging to the State not otherwise appropriated; which is about the same thing as giving the purchaser the privilege of filling his pockets with any money found "lying around loose."

ng time to induce Americans to pay his debts, and, having found moral suasion unsuccessful, is now going to put an execution into the hands of Napoleon, who has been a constable in his time. He says we have no eloquence, no architecture, no literature, no fine manners, no taste for art, no orders, no liberty. But it is curious that we do have all the staple products which he mentions,--the gold, corn, cotton, etc.,--and if they afford a pretext for seizing on Mexico, why not on the United States, or, at all events, Texas and California? That would be in the interests of civilization, would it not? The French might be so good as to help themselves to staples which they cannot produce, and give us in exchange that which we have not,--French eloquence, French literature, French manners and French liberty? Perhaps Jonathan, who is something of a merchant, may see the advantage of that commercial transaction, but, as at present advised, we guess not. M. De Lamartine, indeed,

ost extensive in the known world. The salt is of a pure crystal, and, unlike that obtained from the famous Cracow mines of Poland, requires no recoiling. During the early part of the late war it was one of the principal resources of supply to the South. The name of the island is "Petit Ance," and consists of a hill, at some points one hundred and sixty feet high, containing about two thousand two hundred and forty acres of land, surrounded by the waters of Bayou Vermillion, situated about nine miles from Vermillion bay, in the above-named parish. Although salt has been manufactured upon the island for many years, yet the discovery of the mines was not made until 1863. The deposit seems inexhaustible, and promises to be one of the greatest developments of the age. Although the production of salt in the United States in 1860 was nearly thirteen millions of bushels, yet the importations of this article from foreign ports were very large.

Chief Secretary of the French Legation is connected with the details of the Mexican question and growing popular sympathy with the Liberal cause in Mexico, together with the appointment of General Logan, has led to a communication between Count Montholon and the State Department, which resulted in sending a message to the French Emperor for definite instructions. It is said the withdrawal of the French Legation from Washington will take place in case of the formal appointment of an United States minister to the Mexican republic. Third Dispatch. Washington December 15. --The House yesterday adopted the original Stevens resolution by a two-thirds vote. It is regarded as settling the question of admitting Southern claimants to seats.
