USHAPPY FRANcE.-According to the letter.
of Mr.. Walsh, the American Counsel at Paris
the friends of national government have very
little to hope for in France. The Rcruc de'
dcur Monde, says, "thcre is no real enthusiasm

Mr.. Walsh responds, and tells us, that by lib
crty the masses in town and country "undcr
stand simply exemption from taxes, and the
right to seize whatever they need" lie cites
a remark by the dictator, Gen. Cavaignac--

maxim practised upon it in the present day
'S'c colo, sac Ju6eo, SIC reto. .Stet pro ratione
roiuntos."
The honorable gentleman asked me what
were the sentiments Of General Taylor in re-
gard TO the Mexican WI. think he will find
an answer perfectly satlsfac tory in the Allison
letter. There Gen Taylor announces great
principle of vast importance TO this country
HE aro,cs himself opposed 10 The doctrine Of an
neration by conquest He is opposed to war
when the honor of the country does not de-
mand it, and in favor of peace as the general
policy Of the nation. He congratulates the
country upon the successful termination of the
Mexican war. But he distinctly announces
his own principle, conservative and glorious as
it is-One on which we will go into the can
vass this fall--th@ he wiH oppose all war for
The purposes Of conquest"
/ Mr.. Clayton has done something more in
this speech than to vindicate the principles up
on which Gen. Taylor is supported by the
Wings as a candidate for the Presidency--he
has carried the war into Africa, and exposed
with inlnitable point and force of sarcasm the
hollowness and studied deceptions of what are
familarly called the Democratic platforms,
more especially those OF 1914 and 1918. We
regret extremely that our limits preclude us from
quoting his scahing remarks on this subject
even in an abridged form. They should be
read entire to be appreciated. And we cannot
do our friends greater service than to call
their attention 10 an exposure Of these iraudu-
lent professions that keep the promise to the
ear and break it to the hope" which are re-
lied upon by our opponents as their chief ma
teridl for action in the campaign now being
opened
1t seers to us manifest, that nothing can
operate in this contest with more signal effect
in giving il a right direction than wide circu-
lation of speech Of this character, having Sc
much to recommend it, both as TO matter and
manner. 1t has all the strength and direct
ness for which Mr.. Clayton's efforts in tn,
