PARIS, THIIIISDAY EVSNIKO.
The news of the admission of Prussia to the Con-
grass, which was rumoured at the Bourse yesterday,
and produced a great effect there, is confirmed to-day
by a telegraphic despatch, from which it appears
that the fact is positively stated in a semi-official
journal of Berlin.
The Prussian Plenipotentiaries will be K de Man-
teuffel, the Prussian Minister for Foreign Affairs,
and M. de Haterld, the Ambassador in Paris. M.
de Manteuffel leaves Berlin to-utorrow. [Thin state-
ment is corroborated by the Mositesv of this morn-
Imp]

gress will probably take plat* to-morrow.
At the Bourse the offset of the pacific news seems
to have bees discounted, for the market was rather
heavy. The Rents closed with a fall of lito. for
cash, sad fie. for account, at 721 r. 650. and 731 r. 26e.

(=mg ova OWN CORRISIVIIDNXT.)
LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY RIMMING.

The steam ship Atlantic, Captain Weer, arrived
at this port at half-past 4 this afternoon. She brinp
advises from New York to March 1, 45 peaseogers,
bet no specie.
The Atlantic passed the Baltic off Sandy Hook,
March 1. Nothing is 11l yet known of the Pacific.
The great feature in the advice. now to hand is the
publication of the correspondence between the
United State' and English governments on the En-
listment difficulty, and the Clayton-Balwer treaty,
the papers having been presented to the Senate by
the President, on the 28th ult.
The correspondence upon the Enlistment question
(assists of 22 letters and documents, and fills 18
columns of small type in the New York journals.
The despatch from Mr. Marcy to Mr. Buchanan,
dated Dec. 28, is the most important, being • delibe-
rate and detailed review of the entire subject in dis-
puts, and occupying of itself upwards of six columns.
The following are the concluding passers:

Though the lest instructions are a restriction upon the
interpretation which Lord Clarendon has given to the law
tad righs of the United States, they would, even if literally
observed, infringe bo'h. This government maintains that
J every instance where a person, whether a title's cr a
foreign', bas been brought to the determination to leave
this country for the purpose of entering into a foreign
service as a soldier or seller, by any inducements offered by
recruiting agents her., the law of the Un.to t States has
neon violated. I h.rie certainly can be To doubt of the vio-
lation of t►e law of the United States in every ewe where
one party, the recruit, has bees induced by the to roan ffered
be him octually to leave the United States fir the ramose
of entering into (mire military sstviee, and the other
patty has furnished the amass and borne the ex-
pense of taking him to a foreign depot, in order
to C40111211114(11 the act by enlistment. It wdl
not purpotely be denied that several hundred cases
of this hind actually occuirei in carrying out the
'clime of British recruitment, The vary design of cm-
ployisg spats for such a putout to act within the limits 01
the United States involved fa its COW Tames an Jade's-
meat of that law. his the solemn duty of the government
of the United Settee to staithin this c instruction of their
neutrality law, and the attempt to setup sad sustain • dd.
ferent one has created mach surprise; and that it ham been
done by a friendly gov.roment with which tie United
States ere most anxious to maintain and strengthen the re-
lations of nifty, is the cause of deep regret.
When the Presiteot presented the OW to the considera-
tion of bee Majesty's government, with the suistuo that
he bad ouch iotormation on the subject as compelled him to
believe that British alines in enfant statocs wen
imp Hosted in a shun, which bed mulled in an infringe-
ment of the rights of the United Stater, and a violation of
their low, sod asked for some satishotion for the
yearn, he certainly did not expect that the conduct of them
officers would be justified upon principles which impair the
sovereignty of the United States so an independent nation,
and by an Intertretation of the law which makes it en
Stay infective for Wu purposes fur which it was intended.
Some malefaction for the irjory was confidently ewe ud;but
nothing that con be reseeded in that light bee been offered,
end this government is compelled in vandic Mon of its rights
and laws to take a course which it sincerely hoped bet Ma-
jeety's government would have rendered u•ssisuary.
Her Mojesty's minister to this government, Mr. Cramp
toe, hes taken a conspicuous part in organising and
a:nation the scheme of coutructieg the British army
within the United Stater. Were it poesible, with due regard
to the seinen and &Gamins in the case, to assign him •
sutordiosta part in that scheme, eves that would not allow
the President to change the course which be is obliged,
under the circumstances, to pursue towards him. Any par-
ticipation in the project, es it has been disclosed, in raising
recruits I. this couatey for the British service, was Siena-
, patible with hie official relations to this government.
His connexion with that affair bas rendered him
an unacceptable representative of her al ' y neer this
government, and you ere directed by the President to ash
her Mejestre government to recall him. Mr. ItoweroN
the Br tlsh maul at Ciulanati. Mr. Mathew, British wo-
nt
at Philadelphia, are implicated in the retraitieg projee.,
end you are forth. r dirseted by the President to ask for
their removal for that canoe. The persons convected with
the British consulate at New York bare been actively en-
gaged in farther:og the recruiting scheme. Mr. Steak y,
the moistest or clerk of the consul, has taken a more open
and effective port than the consul himself, and is now under
as indietment for violation the low against foreign
recruiting. The consul, Mr. Bitch% could act
bat know of Mr. Stanlers conduit la that mat-
ter, but he still retains him is the consulate.
Besides Jo resymibility that rightfolly attaches to Mr.
Barclay for the imprrp s conduct of an eautiogef in his
oMoe and ander his immediate and daily observation, this
goverment is satisfied that he bee himself not only
tenured the enrolling tor the British may, but has tarti-
cipated in it. Moreover, the improper endue! of Mr.
Barclay 12 the eau of the barque Massy has justly gives
offense to t►e commercial emanalty is which he resides,
and with whin he hes 'EMI esonnion. For these
realms this gemenerat deems it proper to Joanna you to
ask the sweetmeat of Civet Britain to withdraw Mr. Bee-
clay from the pest of British coeval at Now York. You
are ditec:ed by the Pus/diet to read this derpateb to the
Earl of Clarendon, and, should he desire it, to hand him a
copy.

The correspondence closes with a letter from Mr.
Buchanan to Mr. Marcy, dated let February, in
which he details that he had an interview with Lord
Clarendon, on the 29th January, when he read over
to him Mr. Marcy's dispatch of the 28th December,
previous to which he fully explained to him that
when be communicated to him cm the 18th July his
tonfideace that the explanation offered by Lord
Clarendon would be satisfactory to his government,
ha had no idea of the eomplieity of Mr. Crampton in
the affair, which had therefore, in consequence,
@Bastard a much more serious aspect. It will be
seen that Mr. Buchanan withheld the delivery of the
despatch of the 28th December a fortnight, so that
Lord Clarendon had not sufficient time to reply by
the Atlantic or the Axis.
_ _ _

The corrtspoedence on the Clayton-Bulwer
Treaty does not reach so great a length.
The first letter is from Mr. Bachman to Mr. Marcy,
bearing date Nov. 28, in which Mr. Buchanan says,
that in the course of a moversation which he had
with Lord Clarendon, he stated to him that the most
serious difficulties between the two governments
might arise out of the Cordial American question.
Lord Clarendon replied, that when two governments
disagreed about the construction of a treaty, the beat
and most natural mode was to refer the question to
a third power. At se early period of the midis.
tions Lord Clarendon had made the same sugges-
tion' but Mr. Buchanan jocularly replied that
the Emperor of Russia was the only one suffi-
ciently independent to act as an umpire in the
ems, and England had gone to war against him.
Is a despatch from Mr. Buchanan to Mr. Marcy,
November 28, a conversation similar to the above is
reported. Mr. Beckman says :—N Having urged
upon Lord Clarendon as strongly as I could remoras
which I thought osght to induce the British govern-
ment to relinquish the Bay Islands to Honduras,
Lord Clarendon replied that these islands are not of
the leant vales to Great Britain, and that the only
question with the government wan, whether the
national honour did not forbid this course." Ia au
interview between Mr. Buchanan and Lord Claret-
don, by appointment, on the Bth of November, the
latter said the best method to settle the question was
by arbitration. Mr. Beohanan replied that there
wee nothing to arbitrate. Lord Clarendon said the
true construction of the treaty was a proper subject
for arbitration. Mr. Buchanan replied that he did
not consider there could he any question as to the
construction at all. The language was plain and
explicit, and he thought this would be the una-
nimous opinion of the American people; but that
in writing to Mr. Marcy he should mention what
bad ban said. Oa the Bth of February, 1884, Mr.
Buchanan wrote to Mr. Marcy:

B. fare this 01111 reset Woolliestea pa will have read the
speeetas el Lents Derby sad Clepadea is the House of
Ler 's ea Theesday, whisk will speak far then selves. Ie reti-
tlea to the Central Amorist's quietus LordEllaseades add—
" I lest so tine la *ferias to refer the whole question to
the titbit:atlas of say thin! pewit, both sides agreetips to
be beatd by the dahlia. That Oar has not bus to-

NSW, but I hope upon further consideration the govern.
meat of the United Metes will scree to it."

Mr. Buchanan resumes :

It le therefor* proper for me to state, as a matter
of fief, that I have reported to you in the most faithful
manner every minvenation which has passed between Lord
Clarendon sad myself on the subject of referring these
questions tea friendly power. As I have net. r learned that
the British government hes made any such o& r to the go-
vernment of the United States than through Lord Claren-
don, I infer his lordship must bare referred tr the general
eraverestiou between him end myself, wh?ch would by no
means justify the broad terms of his argument. This much
merely to vindicate the truth of history.

On the Bth of February Mr. Buchanan writes to
Mr. M •

Oa Wednesday last, the Olth instant, I bad an Interview
with Lord Clarendon et the 1,, reign-rifles. I told him I
desired to mentain whether the statement be made in the ,
Hone, of Lords on the evesiog of Thursday, the 31st ult.—
that the British government had made to the American
goverement an off r, which hes been recently renewed, to
arbitrate concerning the Central American question—wan
founded on what had passed betwen him and myself in
corer. nation, or whether he had instructed Mr. Crampton
to make to you in writing a formal tr peal te arbitrate.
He replied that his statement was founded on nor different
couversatiess, and that is them he bad several times pro-
posed to me the reference of these question to arbitration,
and be expressed the hope that I had communicated his
propositions to my government. I inflamed him that I
had faithfully reported to lon all cuversatioas we
had held is reference to an arbitration, but I
had sot believed that what be mid on them occasions
amounted to such as offer es mild be recognised by our
gov.rnmest as a foundation for pacific action on so grave a
matter; that I did not doubt you were of the same
opinion, as I hod never received a line from yen on the
eul jut He observed that, before holding thee* em -
Cons with me, be ►ed consulted his cabinet, and spoke their
seetimeets as well es his own. I remarked that this feet
had now for the Int time been communicated to me. If
he had ieLsrined ma of it at the t me, that would hive given
his conversation a mote serious character, and caused it to
make a deeper impression on my mind. He said he had
thought, m a matter of cones, that I would consider what
he said to me had been said after consultation with his
cabinet. In reply I observed, I had thought that when one
nation desired to proems to another the submission of au
international dispute to arbitration, it wee done
by writing and in due form. Such had been
their own coarse when they proposed to arbitrate
the Oregon question. Besides, the President might, if he
thought proper, onesu!t the Senate on 0 question ; and
what would be thought by that body it such a proposition
were presented there in the loom ferns of a report of vari-
ous conversations between him and myself, which, after all,
I might, through mistake or ins 'Tertian., not hue re-
ported corn oily ? He said, what be 13.<11 done he considered
a preliminary step, and if our government had indicated
any set sfsetion with it, they would have been papered to
p rooted farther ; bat from what I had said to him he did
not think they had received much me suregemeet. I told
Mee, when I had spoken to him, I had always been
eaten' to more him that I was upraising my own
individual motimente, without soy instrectioes or
information from my government, and these retuned
■nthinged. I also observed that his last letter
to me, fully denying our conitraction of the
treaty, and forcing the issue between the two government*,
might appropriately have contained a proposition for arbi-
tration, and in this manner the question might have been
brought in a regular form before our government. He
thee, for the first time, informed me that he had addressed a
despatch to Mr. Crimples on the sutject, with instructions
to him to reed it to you. He then sent for it, and read it to
me. I believe it was dated in Numbs r, but • copy being
doubtless' in your possession, it will speak fo: iuelr. He in-
formed me farther, that all you had said about it to Mr.
Crampton was that the matter was in Mr. Buohanan's hands.
He proceeded to express • decided opinion in favour of
arb Onion, and said that. when two friendly governments
disagreed upon tie connection of • treaty the enteral and
most aperopriste course wee to refer the weenies to a third
friendly power. He had ever believed their contraction of
the treaty to be correct. He then requested me to comma-
nirite to you their proposals for en arbitration, and how
matins they were that the question might be settled in this
manner. I told him I should cheerfully comply with his
request, ►ut repeated that my own individual opinion re-
mained unchieged. I c ,nsidered the largesse of the treaty
t w clear for serious doubt, end that I believed was the opi- '
Mon of public men of all partite in the Unitei States. This
had been evinced by • recent i.eb ate in the Senate on the
President's message. Besides, the difileulty of Meting a
suitable sovereign a an arbitrator seemed insuperable. But
this, I said, was equation for my government, and sot for
myself.

Oa the 27th of February Mr. Crampton write, to
Mr. Marcy :

Observing that Bowe wrieopprehenaion seems to east as to
the offer made by Lord Clarendon to Mr. Buchanan, to
submit the palate regarding the interpretation of the
Chi) ton-Bulwer treaty open which the two governorate I
disagreed to obitgatioa, I think it well to rend yea the
eucleeed despatch, which I received firm Lord Clarendon on
the subject in Devotee lot. I regret act having rode

rerrsd to it lately, and ae I wu aware that the negotiat'on

Beebasses sad Lord Cla;andos's hands, I sossidered the
despatch se alertly utast for a eopy of information ma to
what was pies forward upon a snbjeet in regard to which
I infervel yen were already informed.

Io the despatch referred to Lord Clarendon writs&
to Mr. Crampton ander date Nov. 10:

at a eettlement of the question. Mr. Eschsean Pal he

In the debate which ensued upon the presentation
of these papers to the Senate—

The Hen. Mr. Seward said that this eeerespondinue
plated the Mint of Carrel Amulets affa'rs in a light
eseaewhat diffetut from that ia which it promoted itself
whoa Ant Moonlit before the honer. As the case stood
whoa ecigiaary submitted by the President, the cnntouni-
ostkna &tweets the two gave/musts consisted of 'momenta
oa both side., each govenmoot rigidly maintaining its
position regarding the custitutith of the treaty; the
United States demanding it. falfilmens, and Great Bri.ala
quite as positively, he might say somewhat offensively,
refeslog marlines,. Under them circumstances he had
thought it his duty to dotterel his opicion, and express de-
sided someorreama in the position this government bad
mama. It now appeared that Cheat Britain was willing
to arbitrate. He congratulated the Senate ua that feet, as
arming • more pulls and plvasing prosper* commie(
Lois thengiag bat still mod imp-meet question. As to the
eolistanst case, the correspondence allowed that the British
government might with plausibility, and perhaps mustier -
tiouly, say they hug tendervel what was r ,gardsi by
them In the nature of an apology, which they might
have etheldend to be se broad and as fell ea wee one-
sietent with the beano, of that government to make.
The Presides' and Secretary of Sat* might have
thought the acknowledgment not suMciestly explicit, bat
Lore Clarendon thought he had probably msde all the
apology which could beside by a piwerjeslous of her dig-
nity and honour. The point of differente was the effect of
the karma* used. Then was room for differences of opinion
ea the @object betweon the pasties ; bat the assumption
would be a violent ose that Great Braain had made ea ex-
planation which ought not to be astisfact ny.
Mr. Pane did not concur with the neater, and win rot
willing that Mr. Seward's *plain should go to the
country as the deliberate view of the Sera's. Soeb a
apology as they should claim from Great Britain bad rot
been made. The dieelosares in the euraspondence exhibited
oe dm part of America • manliness, spirit, and fonsknem, of
which ell should be wood. He was sorry no such spirit
ehuseterised Great Britain. Not only bad ao sands. toey
ape'opy bees made, but the luggage used by the British
Secretary amonatad to Units, and was therefor* offensive.
Lord Clarendon had raid that the United States govern-
meat had sought to obtain evidence against her

Majesty's servants or their agents by practices I.:mistimes
resorted ti under deli otio inititutima, but which were
disliked by all free end enlightened governmenta.
Mr. Pearce said he wee not an advocate for war, tad hoped
t►ey should maintain peace ; but he al.ould never Rano,.
ledge that the c, rneponduce furnished say satittavory
apology (or whit Wall done by Great Britain. The power
wni.ll had invoked their neu'rality was the fret to tit.
ate it.

Mr. Stuart remarked that, notwilistanding the speech
of Lord Clarendon in the Holm of Lords, it was shown
by the ciorresp-ndence submitted that the prof osition to
arbitrate was not submitted to Mr. Buchanan, nor did any-
thing is tho dcapatett fr ,na Lord C.arenclon to Mr. Crampton
come up to that point. It seemed that Lord Clarendon had
given the British poop'• to nude ntsnd that the geverament
had assumed a generous position by offering arbitration.
which America had declined, and wh'ch wool] be renewed.
Inasmuch as Crest Britain did cot intend to acknowledge
the obligations of that treaty, he confessed a string incli
nation in his mind to abrogate it altogether.

Mr. Seward said he haa espresird no opinion that the
British explanations ought to be considered setisfecto:y.
He intended to stow that Lord Clarendon had diearoned
intentional affront. and that it should nt,t be a foregone con
elusion that nothing in the nature of en apology had been
made.

Mr. Masoa maid a grave offence had been committed
against that government by Great Britain. It would be
foiled in some manner and to some extent that Great
Britain bed lent herself to a violation of her obligations to
that country ender international relation., and b■d Invokers
their domestic laws. He underattod Mr. Seward to say
V at some apology had been made by Great Britain for her
offence. He (hir. Mason) conceived an apology to be die
between nations as between gentlemen. When a geet:eman
did wrong, and desired to make mnition, be apolegised,
admitting the wrong frankly and irgenuonsly without re.
intestine, and in that way evinced an honourable pupae.
H. submitted t t tl e hoe. senator (Sennett) whether such
as apology had been made ? On the contrary, such exp:a.
nations as hai been tffered added insult to the general in-
jury. If ever a qn,a,ion had occurred in tlt,•ir international
relations demanding indemnity for the peat sal security foe
the future, it was here presented. Where Vier, was really
no cause for war between honourable men, none would
arise; end to this, be took for granted, the people on both
sides the Atlantic had made up their minds. Mr. Mason
then mined that the number of copies of the British enlist-
ment documents formerly ordered to be printed be ia-
creased to 10,000, and that of those received that day the
same number be printed, both to form ore vo'unie.

The resolivion has leg been agreed to, the Saute ad-
j named.

The steam ship Illinois arrived at New York on
the 26th ult. from California with 1,140,208 dollars
in specie. The fall of r►in had proved beneficial to
the mines and farmers, who had taken advantage of
it to commence to pot out their winter crops.

The money market at New York continues easy,
but prices firm. State loans are a shade lower.
Stocks unfavourably affected by English news. The
demand for foreign exchange wee moderate : London
quoted 1081 to 1091 ; Paris, 5.20 to 5.171. The
cotton market was strengthened by the foreign news,
and closed at an advance of 16.8 d. per cwt. Flour 11c.
to 121 c. per barrel lower. Wheat quiet ; prices
nominal. Provisions active. Freights unchanged;
engagements light.
Amongst the passengers by the Atlantic are his

TURKEY.

PROM 01,11 OWN COILIALSPONDENT.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Matzen 3.
General Mitchell, chief of the stuff, lately received
orders to inspect the force, and accordingly the sth
and 7th regiments under Majors de Courcy and
Coates were paradt d the other day, with all their
camp equipage, reserves, ammunition, &c. This
officer was highly pleased with the appearance of the
men, the mann« r in which they pitched their
tents, and executed various military evolu-
tions. Majors de Courcy and Coates are
two first-rate officers, and although strict dis-
eiplioariene, highly popular with the force under
their command. Major Le Content arrived here with
orders to instruct the different regiments in the Miniii
rifle practice. The Turks pick up admirably any im-
provement, and are progressing rapidly in all mat-
ters. The bands are being instructed in the light
infantry calls, and the Second Brigade is already
quite au fait.
There are nor, I can assure you, finer fellows in
the world than the Turkish soldiers, when well
officered, well appointed, and treated with kindnem.
All their wants, I need scarcely add, are abundantly
supplied ; and I only regret that there has been no
opportunity, except one, of testing the value of the
contingent in the field, and replying effectually to
the misstatements or rather the gross calumnies of its
ass silent/.
