FRANCE.
PARIS. Mc. 1.

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. L

A despatch received here from St. Thomas states
that the proclamation of General Baez as Presi-
dent of San Domingo, in the place of President
Cabral, was the result of a revolutionary move-
ment, which was carried out without bloodshed.

THE BRAZILS.
BOUTHAXPTON, Dec. 1.
The Royal Mail Company's steamer Rhone,
from the Brazils, arrived here to-night, with 72
passengers, 6,1561. in specie, and 2,833 packages of
cargo, chiefly cotton, tobacco, and oranges.
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.
The Buenos Ayres wool crop this year represents
three millions sterling. Sales of dry hides unim-
portant. No sales of new wool. Exchange on
England, 49i. Total amount, 260,0001.
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. The Brazilian squadron had proceeded to
Bella Vista, but the state of the river prevented
their further progress. Copper had declined 300
rein. Cotton firm and advancing. Sales of sugar
unimportant. Prices unchanged. Discount mar-
ket stringent. Exchange, 27i.

BAIUA. Nov. 11.

Hide sales unimportant. Rum, 65 aob,. Pipe
tapioca in demand. Tobacco supplies coming in.
Sales quiet. Copper dull. Sugars firm. Freights
nominal. JD:change, 27d.
ST. VINCENT, Nov. 20.
The Dopro sailed to-clay for Rio de Janeiro. The
men-of•war Niobe and Rover, and the gunboat

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
utterances 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
acknowledgment 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.
WILLIAM B. SEWARD.
