NEw-l DIRK, Jan. IL.
Importont-We have had access to letters
from France, written iy persons holding such ro-
litica stations as cnttc them 10 all the consldrra-
ton Of official organs. They say that the French
Ministry will not permit any degree Of resentment
or other passion TO enter into their measures to-
ward, lie United States, and will do nothing ex-
cept for the promotion of the best interests OF
France. That CONTRARY TO What has been SO Of
ten said J they viii hot commence hostllitIes on ac-
count OF any measure on the part OF the l. States
which is short of actual aggression, not even non
intercourse, and will under no circumstances STRIKE
the first JiOr. Farther, that ev though Gen.
Jackson should use insulting language recon-
mend hostile /, casurc> no notice will tc taken OF it
by III. Government d France that the indcnni-
~ money will be pad ca receipt OF any comnnni-
cation which can upon the most liberal interprc-
tation be construed rs compliance with the pro-
'iso OF the bill Of approprmtIon,-and even should
no explanation be received during the admins
tration of Gen. Jackson, the money will be remit
ted 10 this country Immediately on his successors
coming into office. II, on the other band, the l.
nlted States should commence a war, France will
60 into the combat with all her resources. The
writers of hosc letters evidently anticipated a very
warke Message from the President al the open
ing OF Congress so much more SO than they will
find ii to be, that the most intelligent French gen.
tlemen here feel no doubt that the Message will
be received satisfactory. Jour. Com.
