nicle, IN abiding TO the geHtlemans departure for
Prussia, says: g "a word more in reference tn
another dlplomast who, to the unfeigned regret of
the PrussIan Cabinek of his colleagues and Of
every reasonable citizen is about to resign his Gre

During the two months that he has represented
france IN this place. he has done more to conciliate
5oth the Government and the peOple-not the popu-
Iace-and to reconcile them with France than had
been effected since the days Of July. He has
proved to Prussia that a French Republic is not
Synonymous for war and aggression. Moderate,
prudent and just-yes, just in despite of a hundred
contradictory Polish assertions and personal ca
lumnies-he has shown that moderation is the ele-
ment Of propagandism and conviction, selected and
desired to be exercised by his employers He has
sottened courty and ministerial asperities He has
smoothed and overcome general inveteracies-he
has mildly checked the Over-hastY. encouraged the
tlmid, and so well performed his duties by writing
unpalatabe truths, that war has been averted, or,
at all events, the chances Of war rendered less inn
minent.

an able critic Of historians, experienced political
economist, Intimately acquainted with the impulses
that govern mems hearts in time of tumult, he has

of France and OF Europe. This was his duty-for
this he was paid by France. Yes. for the rood of
Europe unless it can be proved that evil arises
10 Europe from not asserting to the fOrcible rees-
adjustment of Polish nationality. The intimate
and respected friend of the most ustrious philosO-
pliers and pre-emnent literati of Germany, among
whom it will suffice to mention Schelling, Arndt
Tieke, Humboldt, Nine dArnm. NJ de Circourt
returns to France with the conviction, that if he
has called forth Polish animosities, he has ensured
German sympathies. His mission here was to court
the latter, and not to stand dread of the former
This mission he has well fulfilled
