Diplomatic movement.Yankee speculations on the visit of Count Mercier to Richmond. The Northern letter-writers are much exercised respecting the recent visit of the French Minister to Richmond. The Washington correspondent of a New York paper speculates as follows: Washington, April 25, 1862. Lord Lyons has not gone to Richmond, but it is understood that a representative of the British authorities has gone there, and also both the Swedish and Danish Ministers. These visits of foreign dignitaries to the rebel capital, in the last hours of the rebellion, are significant. They are the subject of much comment here. Some members of the Cabinet are blind enough to imagine that these visits are simply charitable and intended to remonstrate with the rebel leaders, and advise a reconciliation and a reconstruction of the Union. Wiser and more far-seeing men in the Cabinet recognize in these mysterious visitations only a speculation in cotton and tobacco. It would no

The recent dispatches of Mr. Eustis are believed to have reference to such an arrangement.--These speculations are indulged by well-wishers of the conspiracy, under the impression that England's present weakness is Louis Napoleon's opportunity to carry out his policy for the aggrandizement of the power of France among the nations. Our Minister at London, Mr. Adams, recently visited Paris for an official conference with Mr. Dayton upon an important subject of diplomatic negotiation. The former, by the last steamer, reports that he has returned to his post. While we attach very little importance to the opinions of these Northern letter-writers, it is nevertheless interesting to observe the effect of any supposed movement of the diplomatists of Europe upon the public mind in Lincolndom. A Fortress Monroe correspondent thus arranges the matter.

proposes to acknowledge the rebel Confederacy, and guarantee to it its interposition to bring about a peace — peaceable if she can, forcibly if she must — provided Davis & Co. will agree to non-interference with them perpetually in any measure she may take for the subjugation of Mexico, and making it a dependency of France. Certaias the boundary line between the two new Government, allowing the rebel Confederacy a considerable slice more than she now covers by her arms. It is said that Davis likes the proposition as far as it goes, and is willing to send the Monroe doctrine to the dogs; but it is said that he will enter into negotiations with no Government unless they guarantee to him the territory of the new Confederacy comprised in all the slave States. Thus the matter stands. Davis is to consider the French proposition, and vice versa. It isaid that among the French propositions is one requiring the Southern Confederacy to furnish a certain number of troops to assist in con

His visit, as has been heretofore announced in the Herald, was entirely in relation to Lincolndom. A Fortress Monroe correspondent thus arranges the matter. The recent lengthy visit of the French Minister M. Mercier, to Norfolk, has occasioned no little gossip and speculation among high-ranked military men hereo. At first, as I s to lay down their arms, as the tide of victory has set in against them. The third proposition is, that the visit of Mr. Mercier to the rebel capital was force, totally different purpose than either of the two. Since the French steamer Gassendi, with the French Minister, returned to this port from Norfolk, it has leaked out that the mission of M. Mercier was for the purpose of opening preliminary negotiations with the rebel Confederacy in regard to Mexican affairs. It is alleged tha

Our Minister at London, Mr. Adams, recently visited Paris for an official conference with Mr. Dayton upon an important subject of diplsh a certain number of troops to assist in conquering Mexico, the expenses of which are to be borne by the French Government. There is a deal of plausibility in this statement, and the manner in which the visit was made, and the secrecy attached to it, at least should make us suspicious as to its nature. It is characteristic of the Napoleonic policy to cry the empire is peace, when behind it is a full determination for war. Let our Government beware. Napoleon is famous for his coup d'etat.
