The Paris Pays denies the official character of the pamphlet.

o sweep their navy from the seas and lay their seaports in ruins in a month; he has an army of half a million Frenchmen, whom he could easily spare from France and supply their places with half a million more, who would be soon ready in their turn to cross the Atlantic if their services were required. Whoever supposes that with a war on its hands already which is too much for its capacity, the United States would plunge into another war with such a power as France, has but a faint conception of the profound craft and caution of Yankee policy. Louis Napoleon would never have undertaken his Mexican enterprise but from an entire conviction that Southern independence is un fait accompli. He is proverbially the most discreet and circumspect, as well as bold and energetic, of European rulers. His occupation of Mexico is a practical recognition of the South, which will be followed at the favorable moment by a formal acknowledgment, neither of which, however, will the Yankees resent.
hannock, and their scarcely less wretched compatriots in America, have been missed in England, and there are none to supply their places."

r whom the steam rams have been built. The Secretary for Foreign Affairs is also of opinion that if it pleaded that these vessels are for an individual owner, native or foreign, that individual could only be a privateer or a pirate. --And it is on these grounds that the Government has made up his mind. At any rate, the English Government is now firmly resolved to try the question in a court of law, and if amerced for damages, to make an appeal for support to the House of Commons. The Mexican question. A Paris letter says:"The Count Montholon will start on the 16th for his new post in Mexico, and it is not a little curious that, having been so lately employed as French Consul-General at New York, he should ardently recommend the recognition of the South." The London Times city article says:"It is not believed that anything is really known of the plans contemplated by the French Government for establishing the future financial position of Mexico. It is, however, reported

As the case stands at present, there is every likelihood that the Government will abamlon its intention of interfering with them, as there is nothing to show that they violated any provision of the Foreign Enlistment or any other law. The London Times, of the same date, says: We have authority for stating that two iron-clad vessels, now building at Liverpool, will not be allowed to leave that port pending further inquiries, and until fresh instructions are given.

whole people is absolutely necessary. The Archduke stated, in conversation with the members of the deputation, that he would only accept the crown if all these conditions were fulfilled, and that he would now await their fulfillment. The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post repeats the statement that nearly all the European Powers, including Spain, have agreed to recognize the new Empire of Mexico.
