Mr.. cartons OPINION.

the newspapers have the slightest disposition
fuse the payment of the Indemnity-to cease
cial intercourse with this csuntry-or consider il
cessary in the present of affairs take any step
leading to declaration of war
Since his arrival from France, Mr.. Barton has been
called upon by persons of the highest responsibility and
asked what do you think Of the French business Mr.
Baronr' To such questions, Mr.. Barton has been |
unreserved and frank in the declaration that he appre
hended no difficulty in the payment of the Indemnity
the arrival Of the last message in France. After Mr.
Barton had received his passports from the French 60
vernment, NJ Broglie had interview with him, and
told him frankly, Mr. Barton assure you the French
government will pay the Indemnity, if your Presidents
message shall contain the slightest explanation,
the approval of Mr.. Livingstons official let
ter. That communication ITSELF would have been con-
sidered sufficient if il had been written after the Vaaze
amendment adopted"
1t is further stated that the French minister
Gar to offer to pay Mr.. Barton the first INSTRUMENT if
he would receive it. Mr.. Barton however, refused it,
on the ground that he no longer accredited to the
French government, having received his passports
few days before. Mr. Barton, however, told him. that
the American Consul still remained in Paris, through
whom any overture could be made the American 60
venmen M. BrogIie, closing the interview assured
government towards the United Sates-tha none more
regretted the difficulties iRto which they thrown,
than the kingsnd that there was not the slightest dis
position in France to withhold the ful6lment of the
Treaty of 1881, il possible comply
with its TERMS without flying the face of the Chamber
of Deputies.
We learn further that Mr. Barton has sent all his
dispatches long since to Washington and that it is his
belief that the Special Message, there is be at
ALL will be entirely pacific and conciliaory recommen-
ding action Of Congress of any kind until spring
when is believed the French government will have
paid the money and falaed the treaty.
Such affirm the sentiments, opinions and facts,
Lor nearly so, stated uureseTedly to merchants,
on several occasions by our late Charge G4faires.-
The recent tone of the French press is indeed some
what beligerent but that is by to be consi
dered the sentiments Of the government. 1t is possible
indeed to kick up by rousng the spirit of the
country and even the present occasion there would
be harm general rising throughout the nation in the
shape of public meetings, shelving distinctly to France
and Europe that if the Fresch people have dspo-
siton for war; the American people belong not to that
class who are to be frghtensd from their property"
But in the midst of all patriotic eryo is neces
sary that merchants be deceived or be-
tayed by such ridiculous TRADES are put forth by
the eharlaans of the Courier Enquirer. Utterly un6,
by nature and of capacity to come TO right con-
clusion any subject they still more unfit to give
correct opinions French affairs, in consequence of
their speculatng mania and deep interest in stockjob-
bing They peert every public from its proper
hue and coierng in order TO raise stock or depress
another. There is no truth in them.
