He procured a private conveyance by which means he reached Richmond some time during Sunday night. It is reported through a reliable channel that orders came up by the Yankee flag of truce for the French squadron to leave City Point immediately. The fact that the French had probably overstayed their time seems to confirm the truth of this report, though it may be that trouble is brewing in some other quarter, or from complications, the nature of which remains for us to learn.

it matters little, if a country is to have a master, who the master is. Does it matter little to France whether she is ruled by a Napoleon or an Englishman? To Hungary, or Italy, or Poland, whether a stranger or one of their own race sits upon the throne? To the South, whether a native born slaveholder or a Yankee abolitionist and amalgamations seize the sceptre?
