The Paris papers of this evening contain a letter from the Chilies minister in Paris, dated the 30th I November, refuting the assertions of the circular of the Spanish Minister for Foreign Affairs. The Petrie of this evening says :—" President IJohnson has reorganised the United States squadron in the Pacific. This squadron, consisting I of five men-of-war, left St. Thomas on Nov. 15 for Valparaiso." BREST, Dir. 1. The cosiette Venus has been ordered to sail for 'Valparaiso. SAN DOMINGO. PARIS. Dgc.

BUENOS AYRES, Our. 27. The Congress has been closed ; many important measures were passed during the amnion. The Paraguayan war has taken a favourable turn; the surrender of Uruguay is beginning to show its importance, Lopez has apparently lost confidence in his generals, and his army is stated to be retreating to Paraguay, and the war is progressing favourably to the allies.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 8. T he Emperor is expected here on the 10th, and great preparations are making for a suitable demonstra tion. A heavy storm at Mercedes greatly impeded the advance of the allied armies. In Corrientes the Paraguayans were retiring, devastating the country they abandoned, which embarrassed the advancing allies.

AMERICAN ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF ENGLISH ADDRESSES OF CONDOLENCE. TO TEE EDITOIt OP THE runs& Sra,—l am desired by the Minister of the United States to request the publication in your columns of the following despatch, addressed to him by the Secretary of State on the 4th of last month. It is intended as a general answer to the various ad dressee spontaneously called forth from all parts of this kingdom by the lamentable events which hap pened at Washington in April last. These papers were received in such numbers as to render the labour of answering at the time each one separately, under the peculiar circumstances attending the situation, impracticable. It is therefore hoped that by now presenting to them this paper directly through the press the respective parties interested will be pleased to accept of it as an acknowledgment to themselves by the United States government of their kind and earnest sympathy in their moment of public calamity, in lieu of a more formal and direct communication to the same whi ch,purportc but for those circumstances, would undoubtedly have been transmitted earlier, and in a separate form, to each. I have the honour to be, air, very respectfully, your obedient servant, BENJAMIN Mona!, Secretary of Legation. Leptios of the United States, London, Dec. 1. i Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &a. Department of State, Waahingtoe, Nov. 4. Sir, —During the seasons of spring and summer which have now passed you transmitted to this department the msnifold expressions which were made by the government, public authorities, civic, ecclesiastical, and educational corporations and associations, as well as by public seseniblim of citizens and by individual citizens of the realm, of their feelings of sympathy and condolence with the government and people of the United States in the calamity which they had suffered in the lamented death of the late President Abraham Lincoln. The same proceedings spoke in one voice the language of indignant reprobation against the perfidious political crime of assassination by which the ernioently useful end honourable career of the late Chief Magistrate was so abruptiy brought to a fearful, yet for him most triumphant end. Owing to sours peculiar casualties the efficiency of this department wee impaired at the time these despatches were received. They obtained only a simple and formal ackoowledgment from the presiding secretary, and no in structions were given you concerning the recognition of the papers alluded to by this government. I have now to inform you that all of the communications thus received were, without any delay, submitted to the President of the United States, sad were read by him with profound emo tions of sensibility and gratitude. It was his expectation that the parties from whom these generous and sympathetic u tterances had come would be duly and properly assured of their consolatory iofluence, not only upon himself but upon the whole American people. It is deeply regretted by this government that this expectation of the President was toned impracticable. Our government, simply constructed with adaptation to the transaction of 'mammary affairs in the ordinary course of administration, toned itself in the condition of this de partment which then existed inadequate to the immediate a cknowledgment of such various and vast obligation' sod. deoly and unexpectedly incurred. The regret, however, is in some measure mitigated by the fact that these expres sions of British sympathy and goodwill were only a pat of similar manifestations of the Name feelings which oc curred in every part of the woeld. Nevertheless the President earnestly desires that recognition shall even now be made of the sympathies and condolences which were thus poured in upon us with a profusion that did honour to human nature. You will attempt to went* this purpose so far as Great Britain is concerned by Livia; to Bari Russell a copy of this despatch, and by promulgatiog it in England, either with or without seeompanyiag references to the addresses, resolutions, Utters, and other testimonials to which I have I referred as shall be lotted pm/iambi& I am, Sir, your obedient eetsaal.

This large teethe Is owing to two cameo : 1. The Atlantic and Great Western line forms the central link ot the restart line of through traelc in the wadi, viz., that be tween the Western State, of America and the Atlantic. From its shorter distance, and advantage of forming part of an on broken line of 1,200 mike on • uniform ale-feet ,it matt always be the best line of cometheicabon by wh enormous mode and passenger teak centering In the Western cities of Llnclnnati.

Some ides of the ream tragic them welting for development, may be formed froth tbe stogie fact, that this oil dialed now yields at the rate of 3,000,000 barrel' per a' num, for the conveyance of which is much as Id. to 4.1. per ton per mile le willingly paid. A consolidation of the several divisions of the Atlantic and Great Western Balfirny under one executive has been made, and a mortgage for 30 millions dollars, or 6 millions sterling of bonds has been createdend alma capital of Mmtltionsdollers of of 50 dollars each, based on the whole rroPert7 tithe Comp Mare sany.

Provision is made in the mortgage deed (under which the cepaolidated meteonds are issued) for seeming the rights of the existing bonds, and also for their exchange at maturity, or earlier, by consent of the holder, If authorised by the Board of Control ; this being completed, the present consolidated mortgage will become the end weer gage over the whole railway, with its branches, extensions and equip ments. The consolidated capital therefore will consist of SOO,OOl the ,000, half in shares and half in mortgage bonds, which provides for completion of the entire line. To meet the interest on them bonds at 7 per cent. in sterling after paying all working expeuses, it as calculated by Mr. Forbes theta gross annual receipt of 56,142,000 would be suftl. Merit, which is considerably less than the actual receipt, and 2,573.000 dollars lees than Mr. Forbes's estimate et the annual receipt when the additional 100 ilea are opened, so that the security for the bonds is ample , and ther e is every prospect that, in addition, a high rate of dividend will be paid on the 30,000,000 dollar* of share capital. The consolidated bonds have .25 years to run, wi th bl coupons for interest at seven per cent. per aonum, payaquarterly, free of income tax, at the Company' • offices in London or New York, In gold.

NEW YORK, Nov. Zi, Emma The New York Berald says that the government ' must demand the crew of the Shenandoah from 1 England under the extradition treaty. The other papers are silent on the subject. The New York Times states that General Logan's appointment as Minister to the Republic was made in consequence of Maximilian's decree declaring the republicans outlaws, against which the United States will protest. Th e oo mmander-in-chief in Canada, having had under consideration the possibility of Fenian raids during the winter, has called out six companies of volunteers, and ordered all volunteers to complete • 1 their number and hold themselves ready for active service.

MEXICO. Advices received at New York from Matamoros to the Bth Nov., ria New Orleans, announce that the republicans have raised the siege of Matamoros, in consequence of the imperial troops marching from Monterey to attack their rear. They dispersed in ' different directions, pursued by the imperialists for about five miles, having been previously badly cut up. Generals Peuza and Gallenda were killed, and Cortina", Himajosa, and Garza wounded. A French 1 squadron had arrived at the mouth of the Rio PARIS, Dim. I. Grande. Washington despatches state that Meijia had in , formed the Emperor that half the forces besieging Matamoros were Federal troops, and that Maximi lian, fearing complications with the United States might arise therefrom, had abandoned his intended journey to Yucatan. The Empress would visit Yucatan, and afterwards proceed to Europe. The New York press announced the receipt of authentic intelligence, stating that Maximilian had ordered all the imperial forces to be withdrawn from the outposts and concentrated at Vera Cruz, city of Mexico, and S an Luis Potosi, there to await the arrival of reinforcements. It was believed that the people would rise in favour of the republic upon the troops being withdrawn ; the republicans, it is added, having received encouraging advice' from the United States. The Matamoros papers announce that a conspiracy had been discovered,formed atßrownsville,to capture Matamoros and the forts, and assassinate General Meijia. Two of the conspirators, formerly Con federate officers, had been captured and sentenced to bo shot. It is reported rid New Orleans, that the French admiral demanded of General Weitzel the surrender of the steamer captured by the republicans, which was refused. Intelligence rid San Francisco announces that the imperialists bad shot Arteaga, Parapachea, Gomez, and Salazar, recently captured in Michoa can. General Alvarez had consequently proclaimed the life of every captured French or imperial general to be forfeited. Despatches from Mazatlan to the Bth, rid San Francisco, state that the French bad entirely abandoned Sinaloa, except the town of Mazatlan, where 800 troops were stationed. The republi cans, vaguely estimated at several thousands, had cut off their communication with the interior, and threatened the city. Advices from Acapulco, to the 3rd, report the arrival of a reinforcement of 500 imperial troops from Mazatlan. General Carvajal and other republican Mexican officers in the United States are purchasing arms, ammunition, and uniforms, for shipment to Mexico, ria Brownsville. Official intelligence received here from Mexico I says :—" In consequence of the town of Matamoros being threatened by plunderers and adventurers, the French frigates Magellan , Avisce, Tartare, and Adonis, left Vera Cruz on the Ist November for the Rio Grande. General Mejia had gained an important advantage over the besiegers on the 26th October, and the attack had not been ren ewed. On the 29th October the attempt to g ain poseeasion of the Wwia was considered to be &failure." EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (nor ocra ows col PARIS. FRIDAY Enarara, There is no doubt, as might be inferred from the expression in the Muniteur which was so much remarked, "a severe order severely executed," that the first accounts of the mutiny of the Zouaves at Martinique produced an impression in high quarters unfavourable to the authorities in the colony. A report has been current that the governor was re called ; but it is now said that the Emperor will await the result of a searching inquiry before he decides as to where the blame should rest. It is, I believe, certain that Prince Napoleon, now expected in Paris every day, has so far made up the quarrel which his speech at Ajaccio pro duced with his sovereign cousin, that he will resume the presidency of the commission of the Universal Exhibition. M. Frimy, governor of the Credit Fonder, and deputy for the Yonne, has received the Grand Cross of the Iron Crown from the Emperor of Austria, doubtless on account of golden services rendered in the matter of the Austrian loan. The Duke of Wellington's maxim that good interest was only another word for bad security is quite out of fashion here. Almost all the Paris journals contain articles—written with so much fervour that one would almost suppose the writers bad a personal interest in the matter—tending to prove that Aus tria is enriching herself by borrowing 250,000,000 at 84 per cent., and that her creditors, who lend at that handsome rate, are sure to be paid. It must be presumed that the journalists are right, because the public believe them, and the money is forthcoming.

The West India and Pacific Steam Navigation Company have received the following telegram per Cuban, via Crookbacen : " Hayti, Port au Prince, Nov. 10. —The French gunboat Sulina arrived from Cape Hayti, reports that the commander of her Majesty's ship Galatea has issued an ultimatum, that Salnave and all the members of the revolutionary committee should surrender on board that vessel uncondi tionally. In case of refusal her Majesty's ships Galatea and Lily would proceed after twelve hours' delay to bombard the forts of the Cape. The time fixed by the ultimatum would expire three hours after the sailing of the French corvette. Salnave's admiral had gone on board the De Soto, and ; offered to put the Cape under the American flag, ; if be were protected against the British. The offer was refused." THE FENIIIC TRIALS. VERDICT AND SENTENCE ON LIIBY. DUBLIN, Bazaar NIGHT. After more than two hours' deliberation to-day, the jury found Luby guilty. The prisoner delivered a long address. He in dignantly disclaimed the charges of contemplated assassination, both with reference to the landlords and the clergy, and said that3oo,ooo Irishmen in Ire land and America would have faith in his disclaimer. The Irish People taught, that as long as the clergy confined themselves to their spiritual functions, they should be treated with respect, but when they descended into the political arena they were to be treated like anyone else. He admitted that he was guilty under British law : but he considered that no other mode of action than that which be promoted would render Ireland independent. Judge Keogh sentenced him to penal servitude for twenty years, and in doing so dwelt forcibly on the terrible conseluences to the country which would result from any attempt at insurrection. He felt for the position of the prisoner ; but having regard to the interests of the country he could not inflict a lighter sentence. John O'Leary was then put upon his trial. True bills were found against Mr. O'Brennan, the editor of the Connaught Patriot, and seven others. A meeting is to be held next week at Norwich, for the purpose of urging on the government the necessity for an immediate and thorough inquiry tato all the cir curnstaocee connected with the outbreak in Jamaica, and the conduct of the authorities in the idea.
