France but have reason 10 think they are all ;ncor
reet; The following is our version Of the natter
" Since the passage of the Indemnity Bill with the
clause requiring satisfactory explanation nothing has
oeen done ON the part of government except the act
OF approving Mr. Lvingstons last letter to the French
Minister The President expressed his APPRECIATION os

thnmoer MIR Pogeot informed his governu,e MT official
Y oil This approval aud disclaimer by the President
since mat time, no communication has been received
by Mr. fageo or by our Government decisive of th,.
course which France intends pursue The French
Government has yet unted it's satisfaction or lie
ussa',sacuon with The explanation rendered by the
resident understood that the President will offer
no other explanation
ut IS not true that u draft has been offered and pro
tested Tor any portion ut the money.
IL Is contciared that the President nnless he FIRE
Congress meets he receives intimaton of the read
ness Oh France to pay the $4,000 900 francs upon the
explanation rendered though Mr.. Papeot will speak
70 Congress on this subject in of decided cha.
The N. Courier, moro apocruphal than the Jopru,l
Oh commerce, has another version of the story which is
Prnoabiy as incorrect as its former one
II is alleged aud call upon the Globe for ;,e,r.
ton as TO the truth OF that allegation that formal de-
m n WAS made upon the French Ministry by Baron
III sc MD IN his capacity Banker of the u States Cor
tne Indemnity voted under the late IF the French e

consequence OF such refusal Rothschld is said 10 ha
inquired whether the reply oieiai and final re-
Seo io answer that IT his application was be cons

TO the intentions of the French Government Unon ,b;
i'otschd is said 10 have agreed that the demand should
moi DC considered official aud that his communication TO

10 tins GEN JACKSON dcmurrcd, and took as we think
very proper and dgni6ed position. He said 81 will
not cause any such notice OF my approval of Mr. Iiy
nsston $ letter to be given 10 France or any other
Power;-Ihe letter was official and has been by me
Puohciy approved. II France will apprzs me o6ciai-

that government will he satisfactory and the inden,ni
" In consequence paid; will hesitate nome nj TO
cause IL TO be done but cannot take SO unusual a
course without official TINT il will moi he
rejected and further explanations demanded We call
upon the Globe to say how much of this version of the
affair is true and for ourselves have no hesitation in
adding, that If correct believe il to be- the Presi
dent has taken view of the subject which will meet the
cordial appreciation of the people. Nous Yerrons
