The Presidents Message caused much
satisfaction in Liverpool.
The Message was forwarded to Paris
Immediately on its receipt in London, and
was, we are informed by n passenger in
England, received in Paris, shortly after the
delivery of the Kings speech-and pri-
vate letter states that every other topic was
absorbed in consideration of the message.
The Times of the 3lst Dec. considers the
Message, "the abest among able papers,"
and says:
Glad there remained any change to be
wrought in the opinions of the people of
this country in favor of the United States,
or had there been any thing wanting to
satisfy us of the justice of the American
American quarrel, the message would have
supplied such desiderata by its clear and
forcible, but calm, temperate, and frank
exposition of the causes liz which the dis

1t will be perceived that the President
decidedly refuses to give any apologize
explanation to the French Government, and
expresses a confident opinion that the A.
merican people would support him in this
determination. Morning Chron.

I From The London Times.
The French Ministerial papers of Sunday,
with single exception, continue to abstain
from comment on that part of the American
message which relates to France. The ex-
ception to which we alude however, a.
bundantly makes up for the silence obsery-
ed by its metropolitan allies. Ii is the

ed by the members of the French Cabinet
of the explanations afforded by President
Jackson. The article on the subject which
we find in the Debats is, indeed, in the or
binary form of leading article, and was
evidently drawn up by one of the habitual
writers of that paper; but, if it do not bear
the avowed character of an official declarn-
