CIRCULAR OF M. MOINE DE LHUYS.

The Moniteur publishes the following eircnlar,
addressed by M. Drouyn de Lhuys to the diplomatic
agents of France abrcad :
Paris, Ost. 18, 1862.

Sir,—On taking possession of the post to which the Em-
peror has deigned to call nie anew, I think it useful to tell
you in what spirit I have accepted the mission which has
been confided to me. I need not revert with you to the
anterior acts and proceedings of the Imperial government in
the Roman question. His Majesty has, however, more
particularly manifested his way of thinking by a letter
addressed to my predecessor, which the Menireur of the
25th September last has made public. This document sums
up the Emperor's views with an authority which any com-
mentary could but weaken, and I cannot do better than
refer to it to-day. In all the phases through which the
question bus passed in thirteen years his Majesty's constant
object, as he has himself taken care to establish, has been
to reconcile the great interests he found divided; and
the more serious those dissentious became the more the
Em-
peror deemed that his government ought to labour to appease
them, without however sacrificing anything of the principles
which have been the permanent nil, of his resolutions. The
policy defined with such exalted and impartial reason has
undergone DO change. It remains animated by the same
sentiments as hitherto for two causes upon which it his
lavished in equal measure the testimonies of its solicitude.
The Roman question touches the highest interests of reli-
gion and policy ; it arouses on all points of the globe
scruples the most worthy of respect; and in examining
the difficulties by which it is surrounded, the Emperor's
government regards it as its first duty to guard itself against
whatever might seem like precipitation on its part, or might
make it deviate from the lies of conduct it has marked out
for itself.

Such in the point of view at which I have placed myself
in accepting the direction of foreign affairs. Ido not think
it either secreeary or opportune to enter into longer dere.
lopments on this head. It will suffice for me to have sum-
marily iodinated to you the order of ideal from which
purpose to draw my own inspirations for the fulfilment of
the Emperor's inteutloos. Invariably faithful to tbe prin-
ciples which have guided it hitherto, his Maiesty's govern-
ment will continue to devote all its effort. to the work of
conciliation which it has undertaken in Italy, labouring at
it with a full sense of the difficulty and the grandeur of the
task, without discouragement and withouut impatience.—
Accept, &c., DBOUTI Dl LHUTB.

GARIBALDI AND THE TRADES OF LONDON.—
General Garibaldi having in letters to friends in England
signified his intention of shortly visiting this wintry, to

behalf, and for the interest taken in the cause of Italian
unity, preparations have already commenced for giving a
public welcome to the Italian hero on hie visit to the me-
tropolis. A preliminary meeting has been convened of the
influential and leading men in the metropolitan trade
societies, to consider the propriety of the troche, as a body,
joining is the proposed demonstration. Should this comae

ments. sad the friendly societies, such as the Foresters,
