The DiRcuIty with France.

4 telegraphic dispatch to the New Orleans Pica- yuue, contains some accoant of the recent inier- ruption which has taken place ia our diplomatic intercourse with Fnnce It seems that 70 official communication has been held between NJ PoussIa the French Minister, and Government since May last. The dipatch says:
 NJ Poussin addressed at that date a note on busi- ness to Secretary Qayton,- the tone and style of which were exceedingly discourteoas On receiving 1t, the latter conceved that the affront was unin- tenlonal, and thenlor8 acting ia tha most friendly spirit he pointed olt it's improprety to Nj. Poussin, with suggestion that he coald withdraw the offaisive letter and write more in accordance witl diplomatic etiquette. M. Ponssn profted by the anicabie hint, and 1t was the be- ievcd his WIS simply oae of inadvertence.
 A short time aaer. however, he again had occa- sion to write 10 tie Secretary business, when it was found that hs letter was still more discoreous -insuting wouh perhaps be the proper term--in it's style than tln former Notwithstanding this. the matter contained was duly investigated, when il was proved that certain charges which he therein brought against an officer connected with an important brach of the pubic service, were not only interpretations, but they were in fact wholly unsoundt Proofs of his error were for warded to him, but his reply to the Secretary's communication vas most offensive.
 Indeed, it deemed so wanting in proper re- spect that the United States government iamedi- aieiy refused to hold any farther correspondence with him, and forwarded account of the whole matter to the government of France. for its con- sideration.
 All this, as it is remarked above. occurred so far back the month of May last An answer from the French government has lately been received, wherein the Presid-nt of that republic and his cabinet superciioasB declined interfering in the affair, and consequently endorse the mpertinence of the Minister, M. Ioussin.
 The U. 5 government. ofcnurse, could not brook the insult and the Its. steamer that Europe informed the government of France that M Poussin could no longer be recognized as its representative at Washington, and demanded his recall He him. self informed that his passports were ready for him 10 leave the country.
 The conduct of France since the correspo ondence of M. Ponssin with Secretary Clayton. clearly shows that her professions of respect md friendship for the United States are little better than a hollow mask. 1t now remains to be seen whether mere attention will be paid To the formal and explicit de- mand for NJ. Poussas recall, just made by our government
 The difficulty, it seems, began In reference to certain letters written by Mir. Walsh, U, $. Consul at Paris, and published in the New York Journal of Commerce, of all offensive character, and for which we suppose M.. Clayton wss held responsible
