when it is known that Sir 11. Peel approves of ail that ?
It is, it cannot be dissembled, a serious en,barrassment
for the Ministry, and a grave difficulty f,r M. Piscatory.
If we are well informed, Sir E. 1)( el is less satisfied winh
Sir E. Lyons than Inc says. But in Englansl all Cabi-
nets, Tory or Whiir, hold it a principle not to abandon
their agents, even when in fau:t, except at the very hot
extremity. This principle, when carried to excess, has its
inconveniences. It must be allowed. however, that the
eentrary urinciple has still more. Sir E. Lyons, if he
beloneed to M. Guizot, would have been long since re-
called'. Admiral Dupetit Thouars, had he depended on
Sir It Pc el, would never have been disavowed."
The following paragraph, which has been copied
into most of the Paris journals, appeared first in the
official evening paper, the Messager of Friday :
"In 1841 the Ville de Bordeaux, French trading
„,t,ssel, was seized by the Customs in New South Wales.

vessel was at the time on the point of taking on
sheep for the ialund of Bourbon ; but whilst wait-
ing for her cargo she had been carrying on a coasting
trade in several parts of the. colony. These operations
Were considered illegal by the Customs of Port Adelaide,
Ind a Prosecution was instituted. The captain of the
vir de Bordeaux was acquitted on two charges of
the indictment, but was condemned on the third,
Ind the seizure was declared good. M. Joubert,
`[° owner of the vessel, then addressed a com-
plaint to the French Government. Thanks to
the active steps of the King's ambassador in
-""radon, the affair was laid before the Lords of tho
zl‘reaiiiry, and upon their decision the Governor of New
`3°Uth Wales was ordered to restore the captured vessel
to her owner. The mere restitution was not accepted
LY 111. Joubert as a sufficient reparation. The vessel,
`ung exposed to the destructive action of the climate, was
unfit for sea, and the sale of her would have produced
I.erY little. These observations having been made to
the
Lords of the Treasury by the Count de Saint
Aulaire the justice of them was acknowledged, and, by
1,4 decision of the 28th ult., it was recommended that

"00.0000, and this has been granted."
• This indemnity, however, by no means satisfies
the National and the Courrier Francais, and strangely
rouses their hostility to England. Galignuni's
