PETERSBURG, Feb. t. 184S.
The steamship Edith, from Vera Cruz, had
arrived at New Orleans, bringing advices to
the Goth ultimo.
Rumors of peace and of an attempted in
surrection in the City of Mexico, were circu-
lating at Vera Cruz.
The peace rumors are founded upon the
fact that the Mexican Commissioners had sub
mitted plan or treaty of peace, embracing
the propositions offered by Mr.. Trist at Tacu-
baya. Mr.. Trists powers having been revok-
ed, he forwarded the Mexican propositions to
Washington, for the consideration of the
President and Senate.
Col. Withers and his detachment had ar
rived safely at the Real de Monte.
Col. Wynkoop and his detachment pursued
the guerrilla band under Padre Jaranta for

little of the Mexican sources of information,
or of their extraordinary sagacity and facilities
in keeping constantly apprised of our move
ments. AS % my particular views in regard
to the general policy to be pursued toward
Mexico, perceive from the public journals
that they are shared bv many distinguished
statesman; also, in part, by conspicuous Of
fcers of the navy, the publication of whose
opinions is not, perhaps, INSTRUCTED by any
regulations of the department. 1t is difficult,
then, to imagine how the diffusion of mine
can render any peculiar aid to the enemy, or
specially disincline him to enter into nego-
tiatons for peace.
In conclusion, l would say it has given me
great pain to be brought into the position in
which now find myself in regard to the de-
partment of war, and the government. 1t has
not been of my own seeking. To the extent
of my abilities and the means placed at my
disposal, have sought faithfully to serve the
country, by carrying out the rules and in
structions of the Executive; but it cannot be
concealed tnaC, since the capltuiatlon Oh
Monterey, the confidence of the department,
and, too much fear, of the President, has
been gradually Withdrawing, and my con-
sideration and usefulness correspondingly
diminished.
The apparent determination of the depart
ment to place me in an attitude antagonistical
to the government has an apt illustration in
the well known fable of Esop. I ask no
favor, and shrink from no responsibility
While entrusted with the command in this
quarter, shall continue to devote all my
energies to the public good, looking for my
reward to the consciousness of pure motives
and to the final verdict of impartial history.
I am sir, your very obi servant,

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

The debate ia the sitting OF The French As
sembIy on The 25.h Of November, was deeply
interesting. Il was on The question Of The con
duct OF Gen. Cayaisnac in the instruction Of
June; and his subsequent administration Of The
affairs OF the Republic.
The debate was opened by NJ. Bafheieme 81
Hiairc who made formal and concentrated
accusation agains, Gen. Cavasnac. The fol-
lowing extracts from his speech, will show oil
what Gen. CTS accused. After stating that The
question dis be ween Gen. G. and the Executive
Commission on the events Of June" VI. s.. H.
read an article, published in The month OF june
from which appears ha orders had been given
10 Gen. Cavaignac, then Minister OF War to
have ready in Paris, as, 900 men, M. 81. Ii. then
remarked:
The commission thought. that by this measure
public tranquility would be assured; and this
would have been the case had its order been ex-
ecutcd. II wished that some divisions OF thu
army of the Alps should be called TO Paris
These orders were not eXecued. why! Ii IS
not known, but Gen. Cavaignac has produced no
proofs in support Of the denial that he has made
of this. However this may be Continued the

the executive commission neglected nothing TO
re. establish order and tranquility 1t results,

mission. Gen. CayaisDac, who was called, said
he had not received the letter bringing him The

ceived the letter, but he made some severe re-
marks against his subordinate, Gen Fouche-

ions of his superior, was at first disposed to ex
poslulatc, and need not say, was few days a.
ter deprived Of his situation. (Agitaton.) The
manner of attacking the emeute was discussed.
The Executive Commission unanimously decided
that the construction OF barricades should DC
nreyented. M Ledru Rollin, amongst others,
observed that they were contagious Gen. Ca
yaignac. on the contrary, and against the opin-
ion Of every one, declared that he would allow
them TO construct barricades, and only attack

Executive Commission consented, and thus the
half of Paris was barrcadcd. Ought ne to have
allowed the barricades to have been made: We
think NOT. If Paris had been, on the I'D, occa-
