FRANCE.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING

The French Government, as I have more than
once had occasion to tell you, is by no means
negligent of what takes place in America, and
especially of the proceedings of Walker. In the
semi official Patrie of this evening there is an
article on the talked of recognition of Walker, by
the United States Government, which is,interest-
ing as showing what the views of the French
Government are. This recognition, says the Patrie,
would be a flagrant violation of the Bulwer Clay-
ton treaty, and an interpretation, abusive and
menacing, for the future of America of the Monroe
doctrine. Such a policy. if it were adopted by the
United States, would not fail to excite the most
serious considerations on the part of the Great
Powers, to which are more specially confided the
mission of maintaining the political equilibrium,
not only in Europe, but in the whole world.
I told you some days back, that a steamer was
to be sent to Civita Vecchia, to bring to France the
Cardinal, who is to act for the Pope at the baptism
of the Imperial Prince. It appears that, in order to
give greater e_lat to his visit, two steamers are to
be sent—the Duchayla and the Promethee. They
are to leave Toulon early in the ensuing week, and
the Abbe Coquereau, chief chaplain in the fleet, is
to go out in one of them to receive the Cardinal.
Marshal Pclissier is expected to arrive here in
the course of ten days or a fortnight. He has
been summoned to attend the baptism of the
Imperial Prince.
The Moniteur announces, this morning, the con-
clusion of a treaty between France and Saxony
for the mutual protection of literary and artistic
property. I was enabled to comnineicate this fact
to you many days back. The official journal also
reports the judgment of the Tribunal of Nassy,
condemning Count de Chambord (die rightful
King of France, according to legitimist notions),
to restore some forests of immense value which
were illegally given to his grandfather by
Louis XVI., and which he has since held. This
fact, also, I was able to communicate to you several

weeks back.
According to the Independence of Brussels, the
Prussian Cabinet has notified to that of Turin
that it will not interfere in Italian affairs, whatever
may happen.
Warsaw letters say that the Emperor Alexander,
in a speech to the nobles of that city, expressed
his gratitude for the fidelity with which the Poles
set ved him in the war, and promised to do all he
could to promote their welfare ; but carefully
abstained from promising any of, the political
reforms which had been expected, and warned
them not to indulge in " dreams" of separating
their country from Russia. .

The "Danube," from Constantinople, has brought
accounts 01 more disturbances between the Turks
and Christians at Jerusalem and in Roumelia.
