FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE,

FRANCE.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVBNING.
The Mexican Government has signified its inten-
tion to accept the mediation of France and Eng-
land in the quarrel with Spain, on the condition,
however, that M. Lafragua shall be previously re-
ceived by the Court of Madrid in his official capa-
city. The negotiations will be carried on in Paris.
The matter seems now reduced to little more than
a question of etiquette.
There is no great confidence expressed in the
durability of the now Spanish Cabinet, at least in
its present form. It is denied that General Nar-
vaez intends quitting Spain, and fixing once more
his residence in Paris. He will remain at Madrid,
and take his seat in the Senate.
It is announced that, in consequence of a recent
agreement between the Powers interested, the Con-
ference for the settlement of the Moldo-Wallacbian
question will begin its sittings early in November.
The dissatisfaction at the incidents that have taken
place in Constantinople still continues, and it is now
believed that Lord Stratford has this time not
merely consulted his own wishes, but has acted in
accordance with his instructions.
M. de Bourqueney arrived in Paris this morning,
and will have an interview with the Emperor imme-
diately.
The last despatch from Lisbon says, from 130 to
140 persons are falling victims to the fever daily.
Commerce is entirely suspended.
Important works are to be commenced at Vin-
cennes next season. A vast space of land extending
on the right of the Castle down to the Military
Hospital, will be purchased ; and this ground will
be connected with the square by means of a bas-
tioned enclosure, and will pontain a large park of
artillery. Thus the Emperor is every day making
Paris stronger against revolutionary risings.
Most of the general improvements that ,have
taken place within the last five years were as much
for strategic purposes as for ornament.

The confused nature of the telegraphic accounts
announcing the fall of Delhi has led the Paris
journals to abstain from commenting on that im-
portant event ; they, however, unanimously admit
that a great and mortal blow has been dealt to the
cause of the insurrection. The Constitutionnel
acquaints us with its views ,on the ministerial
changes in Turkey, from which we extract the
following :
"One of the reasons given for the return to
power of Reschid Pacha is the vote of the Moldo-
Wallachian divans. It is considered that the
Sultan, in face of the unanimous wishes expressed
for the union, has sought to obain the assistance
of one of his most experienced subjects. But this
explanation extends beyond that point, and it is
said that as the fall of Reschid Pacha a few months
back was looked upon as an important check given
to the policy of the two diplomatic agents from
whom the Grand Vizier was said to derive his
greatest support, so must the extraordinary favour
now shown to the latter by the Sultan be inter-
preted as a triumph for the same diplomatic agents.
Constantinople, it has often been said, is a hot-
bed of backstairs' intrigues. We consider it there-
fore prudent to abstain from putting faith in these
explanations, which in fact explain nothing, and
which often have no other result than to deceive
public opinion. The Porte cannot, however, dream
of representing this sudden ministerial change as
an unfavourable manifestation against French po-
licy. Let it be a diplomatic intrigue or a palace
intrigue, we cannot consider it in th• above light.
The conduct of France towards the Porte has up to
the present day been such that any such step would
render the Sultan liable to the charge of ingrati-
tude, and would modify his position before Europe
in a most sensible manner."

The following telegraphic despatches have boen
received here : vr

"BERN; Oct. 27.—Out of the 449 elections to
be effected, 60 are now known. Of these 55 are in
favour of liberal principles, and 10 for the Conser-
♦ative party."

claring the Chamber of Deputies to be dissolved,
and convoking the electoral colleges for the 15th of

sembling on the 14th December."
