On his return I will take, measures to forward you additional means to cable you to extend the field of your operations, and to embrace, if possible, the press of Central Europe in your campaign. Austria and Prussin, as well as the smaller Germaine Powers, seem to require intelligence of the true condition of our affairs, and of the nature of our struggle, and it is to be hoped you may find means to act with efficiency in moulding public opinion in those countries.

this matter a thorough investigation, and arguments are furnished by which the sus bilities and ambition of England may be played off against the probable schemes of the French Emperor. The suppositions of Mr. Benjamin as to the ingenious of France, are summed up as follows: I have, in accordance with the instructions of the President expelled both Mr. Theron and Mr. Taboulle from the Confederacy, and have forbidden their return without the previous permission of the Government. I enffset that possessed by Great Britain in India, and designs to effect this purpose by taking under its protection the State of Texas, which, after being acknowledged as an independent republic would, in its opinion, be, in effect, as dependent on France, and as subservient to French interests, as if a French colony.

ked C and D. In endeavoring to account for such a course of action on the part of the French Government I can only attribute it to one or both of the following causes: 1st. The Emperor of the French has determined to conquer and bold Mexico as a colony, and is desirous of interposing a weak power between his new colony and the Confederate States, in order that he may feel secure against any interference with his designs on Mexico. 2d. The French Government is desirous of securiMexico. 2d.

It follows, therefore, that a discrimination must be made in the application of funds from the different sources of revenue, of which you will take notice. Under the act of Congress authorizing me to accept produce in exchange for bonds, (of which I enclose a copy,) I have procured a considerable amount, which is stored on plantations or in ware-houses. I send you a copy of one of the certificates taken for the cotton. These certificates it is proposed to offer for sale in Europe. They would give to the purchaser an absolute right to the particular lot of cotton with the privilege of shipping the same, and may be preferred by some purchasers. In conclusion allow me to request your co-operation in these various plans, and any suggestions which your experience an observation may deem proper. Respectfully, your obedient servant, C. G. Memminger, Secretary of Treasury.
