FRANCE.—The Paris correspondent of the Pal.
timely very well informed, learns that the French
Government has no intention of recognising the
Southern States of America, ea some journals have
amerted.

On Tuesday the French Emperor lost two devoted'
adherentd. The one was M. &Molt, holding the
portfolio for Foreign Affairs, who became President of
the Corps Lorislatif when the present Emperor seised
the Dictatorship, and has remained in office ever since.
The other was Marshal d'Ornano, Governor of the
Invalided, the last surviving general of division of the
first empire, and the senior general in Europe. The
Emperor visited the dying soldier on Monday. It is
weld that he recognised the Emperor, and raising him-
self in his bed, squeezed his Majesty's hand, saying, " I
shall never see you again, sire, but we shaU meet in
Heaven I" The Emperor left the bedside affected to
tears.

--13F.NMARIL—Dentuark is reported to be preparing
a measure well adapted to lead to a fresh adjournment
of the Federal execution. It is about to proclaim the
new unietitntion for Denmark and Schleswig, implying
the apparent withdrawal of the decree of March 30,
which caused the resolution of the Diet on the subject
of Federal execution. It is hoped at Copenhagen that
the Diet, faithful to is customs, will profit by this to
renew the negotiations. A Berlin telegram of Tuesday
says that Sweden will not sign the treaty with Denmark
for pecuniary reasons; but the source from whence the
Information comes robs it of a considerable part of its
authenticity, and leads us to believe that "the wish is
Lather to the thought."
JAPAN.—The Dews from Japan is by no means
reassuring. It appears that the British fleet there has
been "riddled." It had proceeded to Kagosinia, to
demand from Prince Satsuma the surrender of
Richardson's murderers, and, whilst there, was deooyed
towards the shore, when several masked batterke were
opened, and the vowels in advent), were " riddled" so
effectually that the rest had to retreat out of nage as
speedily as possible. The Japanese claim to have dis-
abled the greater portion of to, fleet.
AMERICA.—The advice* from America show that,
whilst nothing decisive has yet taken place in Tennessee,
the position of affairs has undergone a considerable
change. Rosencrans has been reinforced by the arrival
of the 11th and 12th Corps of Lhe Virginian army, under
"Fighting Joe" Hooker. Bragg was unable to follow
up his victory until his supplies came up, and be was
consequently entrenching himself on the Mignon Ridge,
which runs down towards Chattanooga, and looks in at
the south-west corner of the Federal camp. He has at
the same time sent his eavidry zeroes the Tennessee to
harass the Federal lines of communication. It is also
stated that Burnside has thought fit to •bandon
Knoxville, and betake himself to Cumberland Gap.
This movement leaves the whole valley free to the
Confederates on that side, and it may be that the
attack on M'lfinnsville was made by some force from the
Knoxville country. The Confederate troops in the
neighbourhood of Chattanooga are stated to number
133,000 men, "of which General Joseph Johnstone has
the supreme command." Haa Bragg, then, been
superseded? This piece of information must be taken
for as much as it is worth. The Tribune, the Govern-
ment organ, states that there will be no further draft;
and if the imformation is correct, Yr. !biopic must be
commended for hi. sensible decision.

The Rus.iaus continue to be banqueted and caressed
as ostentatiously as ever. It is amusing to see the con-
cord and harmony which exist between the two peoples.
The Russian admiral, at one of their dinners, responded
to the tout of the health of the Cur, and regretted
that he weld not express the fealinu of gratitude with
which the proposer of the toast had inspired the guerta.
"The praise which be gave to the Emperor," continued
the simple and enthusiastic salt, " is really deserved by
him. Re is certainly not only the benefactor of his
subjects—be I. the friend of mankind. From what he
bas already done, and what he is doing every day, be is
certainly entitled to the same surname which once a
Roman emperor obtained—' The Delight of Mankind ;' "
which appellation was received with sympathetie cheers
by the Yankee audience. We do not end fault with
lii. admiral for praising his master; but it does seem a
little strange that the "freest nation on the fain of the
earth" should not only tamely listen to, but widely
cheer, the oppreseor of Poland as the "benefactor of his
subject.," " the friend of humanity," and "the
'delight of mankind.'" We think that this I. the
moat lamentable exhibition of human weakness and
wounded vanity which the civilised world has been
called upon to within... Let us no more bear of
America as the "cradle of human liberty," or as
worthy of the high-flown compliments which enthusiasts
heap upon it in preference to any other nation ; or,
when we do bear these phrases uttered, let it be borne
in mind that while Poland was being quietly strangled
by her tyrant., while her institutions were being
trampled underfoot; her men imprisoned, transported
to Siberia, or shot; and her women outraged and
tortured, all this while America was silentlyr
of the dreadful deed; its great often were feasting
pampering the Russian sailors, and coldly and pointedly
neglecting those who would remonstrate with barbarous
oppressors.
