OUR RELATIONS WITH FRANCE.

The New York Journal Of Commerce is sa-
alleged declaration Of the French President,
that if France were 10 engage in war with any
power, it would be with the United S,aies-and
its conviction is confirmed BY conversations with
gentlemen recently f;om Paris, likely to know
the views OF the French Government, who state
confidently that SO far from entertaining hostile
feelings towards this country, precisely The op.
posite is true, both oil The French government
and people. II fears that this transformation
"Has had an influence upon the minds and
even upon the diplomacy Of the statesmen at
Washington, and that in consequence OF this
Misrepresentation, they have interpreted as deli.
bsrately insulting language, what was far
enough from having been SO intended On no
other ground can we understand how wise
Administration should have permitted an affair
SO trivial in itself, TO produce an explosion,
which must necessarily be unfortunate for all
concerned. From what We hear of M. Poussin,
we cannot doubt that he has teen misappre>
hended in this matter. as we'll as NJ. do Toc-
qneville, the French Minister Of Foreign Affairs,
both of whom, in common with MIR Clayton,
are comparatively inexperienced in diplomacy
and may have used expressions which implied
more than they intended. On the other hand
for The reason above stated. these expressions
may have been construed by Mr. Clayton, as
Implying what they did not imply. Certainly,
il be suspected that The French Government
was seeking TO get up war between the two
countries, be was IN no condition to interpret
NJ Poussin's language literally, nor scarcely
even with candor. Hence, probably, the uJfor-
iunate issIe If The correspondence. Far be il
from Us 10 desire the 4 merican Government 10
submit lamely to an Intentional insult from any
quarter; but believing as We 90, that none was
attended IN The present case, We sincerely re-
greet that our Government had not invited the
French Minister once more 10 modify his Ian
guag", instead Of setting up its back and ofler.
Ing him his passports. A little more patisnc.
might hare prevented much Inconvenience"
This is the common.sense view that The Amer.
lean people will lake. in spite Of the bellicose
staggering Of the peace praing organs. When
ii is moreover borne in mind, that MIR. Rives (oi
all men in the Union y has been sent 10 France
at this TIM, il will be universally regretted that
some one little less inexperienced in diploma
cy" Than Mr.. Clayton, is mol al The head Of The
State Department.
