ONE DAY LATER FROM EUROPE


The Paris correspondent, of the London
Chronicle says It is certain that the Presi.
dent is anx Gus to give M. Duclure a diploma
tic situation, and i, is thought likely that M.
Marost will be appointed to this country in
place Of M. Poussin.
No importance is attached to the quarrel be-
tween the French Minister and the President
of the u. States. NJ. Poussin, the Minister,
about TO be recalled.
| The London Times says:-''rhe probability
is that as the ailront seems to have consisted
in form rather than in substance, and as it is
impossible to impute to France and the United
States a sc.ious intention Of hostility, mutal
explanations and the sacrifice of the diploma
tst with the patriotic names will appease the
wrath Of these dcmocracies."
Lo is Kossuth is so portrayed in the des-
crp,on which accompanies the Austrian war
rant for his arrest, that the fe male readers
may fall romantirally in love with so handsome
aud fascinating hero.
